Because she was worried that the people from the city defense station would come back to seek revenge, the hostess was always restless.

During the meal, the child kept asking "Why hasn't Dad come back", and the more he asked, the woman became more worried, and the sigh continued to linger in Ning Suiyuan's ears.

"Don't worry." Ning Suiyuan was not very good at expressing emotions, and his rhetoric was very scarce.

The woman smiled bitterly: "I don't want to do this either, it's just that what happened last time cast too much shadow on me."

Ning Suiyuan knew what she was referring to.

Although the empire has unified the inhabitants, nature has not yet been tamed, and unknown species and disasters will appear from time to time, especially in these undeveloped primitive areas.

He crossed a desert on his way to the city, where there were invisible quicksand pits and huge sandworms as tall as a man.This is also the main reason that hinders the development of the small town. The city's supply depends entirely on the input and output of the city defense army. This work has a high risk factor. Often, escorts are dragged into quicksand pits by sandworms and eaten as food without anyone noticing.

Lao Ning was dragged into the nest by the sandworm and lost a leg, but survived for an unprecedented six days, only to save his life when he bumped into Ning Suiyuan who was passing by. It is said that the city defense army is ready to issue pensions to them.

"These tasks should be done by the Alpha in the city defense station, not by the civilian staff." Ning Suiyuan said: "They who have been soldiers know how to deal with extreme situations better than ordinary people."

"Alphas with a bit of power are all focused on how to make profits for themselves, so they are not willing to do this." The woman shook her head: "But you are really good, very few people can cross the Devil's Desert alone." She said curiously: "I never asked what you did before you came here?"

"Me?" Ning Suiyuan shook his head.

Before he had the name Ning Suiyuan, he seemed to be wandering around meaninglessly. Those things were like a roll of black and white silent video tapes, and when he looked back, he had no end and no memories.

"Why hasn't Dad come back!" the child muttered again outside, interrupting his meditation.

"Yeah, it's already at this point, and the shift should be changed in the morning." The woman wiped her hands with her apron and said anxiously, "Could you be sent to do something dangerous again temporarily?"

There was a knock on the door.

"Father!" The child ran over joyfully, the door opened, and a tall and strange man stood outside.

"You can't call someone dad." The man flicked the brim of his hat with his fingers, revealing a dusty but sharp face. He squatted down with a smile, and was at the same level as the child: "Is your surname Ning?"

"Yes." The child said, "What do you do?"

"I am..." Ji Heng thought for a while.

He was very curious about the eldest son of the Ning family who could beat Alpha, so he came here to have a look.It's just that it feels weird to come to see people for no reason, and he thought about finding an excuse.

Yesterday, I went to the secretary of the city committee for tea, and as soon as he revealed his identity, the other party knelt down, hugged his trouser legs, and cried to his father and mother, saying that he was a mistake, that he would not smoke the city defense tax, and promised to give all the people's fat and cream that he had been greedy for before. Back one by one.

Ji Heng thinks that the title of "sending money" is good.

"I'm here to deliver the pension." He said briskly, "Is it convenient to go in?"

The child foolishly said: "Are you Alpha?"

Ji Heng: "Yes."

The child swallowed his saliva, turned his head and shouted: "Mom and brother! There is an Alpha here to send a pension—"

The word "pension" has almost become a pain point for the hostess, her legs were weak and she almost fainted.

"Sure enough, I still can't escape..." She turned pale: "Why does this kind of thing always happen to us—"

Ning Suiyuan supported her for a while, his eyes "brushed" below freezing point.

Ji Heng was waiting outside the door for his master to come in, and then a thin figure approached him—a handsome young man with long hands and feet, with a clear and decisive temperament, which was incompatible with the dilapidated small town, Ji Heng is basically certain in his heart that this is the "eldest son" of Lao Ning's family.

He was just about to say hello when he saw the other party raise his hand, and a kitchen knife flew towards him vigorously.

This kind of "welcome" ceremony Ji Heng has never seen or heard before, he turned sideways like lightning to avoid the murder weapon, and the young man flew over with his kick.

Ji Heng raised his arm to block. He was wearing an iron wrist guard. This kick was so powerful that it made his wrist ache even through the protective gear. In just a few seconds, the opponent had come at him several times with real knives and guns. For a round, Ji Heng had no intention of fighting him, he grabbed the opponent's arm and tried to over his shoulder to knock him down, but the opponent turned over lightly with his strength and twisted his elbow instead.

Ji Heng let go of his hand in time to avoid the disaster of breaking his elbow, and retreated a few meters: "Speak up if you have something to say!"

"When will Alpha be able to speak human language?" Ning Suiyuan sneered.

Ji Heng: "...I feel offended."

"Didn't you feel guilty when you offended others?" Ning Suiyuan said coldly, "Is the city defense station?"

Ji Heng gave a "thump" in his heart: "No."

"Then what kind of pension do you give!"

"It's like this." Ji Heng said clearly: "The city defense tax you paid before is illegal, let me inform you, and the money will be refunded in full."

Ning Suiyuan looked at him, his blue pupils were as cold as ice: "I don't believe it."

Ji Heng: "Why don't you believe me?"

"Because you're an Alpha."

Ji Heng: "I am different from them."

"Really?" The corners of Ning Suiyuan's eyes retracted, as if he rolled his eyes a little, a delicate face made of ice and snow came alive because of this small expression.

Ji Heng stared blankly for a moment.

"It's pretty to stare at people." He didn't hesitate to compliment himself, and lightly opened the corners of his lips: "Well, let's make a bet."

He reached out to grab Ning Suiyuan's wrist.

This Alpha's face was so gray that he couldn't see his facial features clearly, but the complexion on his hands was bright, and the palms were covered with rough calluses, which were itchy when they rubbed against the skin.Ning Suiyuan was not used to being in close contact with people, so he struggled for a while before he could break free, when the other party suddenly stuffed a stack of banknotes into his palm.

"If someone refunds the city defense tax for you at night, it proves that I am telling the truth. You go to the bar on the street and return the money to me." Ji Heng said: "If not, the money will belong to you."

Ning Suiyuan was silent for a long time, shocked by the boredom of the other party: "You—"

"I really care about your opinion." Ji Heng's fingers lingered on his wrist for a while, then let go, and smiled: "Wait for you."

Ning Suiyuan felt that the coal miner-like Alpha was sick and hadn't run away, but not long after, someone in a gray uniform came to refund the money, and warmly invited Ning's mother and son to visit the injured Lao Ning.

Ning Suiyuan was worried about fraud, and followed him all the way to the hospital until he saw Lao Ning who was in a plaster cast.

When asked about the tax rebate, Lao Ning only knew that an unattractive tobacco dealer went to the secretary of the city committee for tea, but he didn't know anything about how he drank it or what he drank.

Now Ning Suiyuan had nothing to say, so he had no choice but to go to the appointment, but some vague speculations vaguely rose in his heart.

In front of the bar, Ji Heng shook the glass, and the ice cubes "clinked" at the bottom of the transparent liquor.

A person sat down beside him, and pushed a stack of banknotes over angrily: "You won, I will return it to you."

Ji Heng smiled triumphantly, and turned to look at the person.

The light was blurred, dyeing the young man's side face with an ambiguous warm light. He has a swan-like slender neck, but with a pair of extremely cold blue eyes, it seems difficult to approach.

"What to drink?" Ji Heng asked: "Whiskey? Vodka? Or some rum?" He said to himself: "I like vodka the most. It's clean, pure, and strong to the end."

Ning Suiyuan: "I can smell it."

Ji Heng: "?" He couldn't help being amused, and sniffed himself: "No, I didn't drink much today."

Ning Suiyuan sneered: "Smelly of alcohol."

Ji Heng was taken aback for a moment, and then he held his chin: "Honey, you look like an Omega when you say that."

Ning Suiyuan: "?"

Ji Heng: "Could it be my pheromone that you smelled?"

This face is gray and simple, but the raised eyebrows have a kind of evil beauty.

Ning Suiyuan frowned.

"Just kidding." Ji Heng said.

Ning Suiyuan: "Boring."

"Then you go." Ji Heng said, "Since I'm so boring."

Ning Suiyuan: "..."

Ji Heng had a good time: "Huh? Let's go."

The young man's ears turned red, he hesitated for a long time, and said in a low voice, "I still have something to ask you."

Ji Heng let out a long "oh".

"Do you have a title?" Ning Suiyuan said, "A title higher than the secretary of the city committee?"

Ji Heng took a sip of his wine, noncommittal: "So what?"

"Then what are you...?"

"Confidential." Ji Heng teased: "Honey, if you want to trick me, at least exchange some of your own information."

Ning Suiyuan lowered his head awkwardly, breathing undulatingly.

"I'm not the biological son of the Ning family."

Ji Heng: "I guessed this, let's talk about something else."

Ning Suiyuan: "."

Obviously he is not talkative, the young man bit his lower lip in a little helplessness, the colorless lips were stained a bit of color, and the blue pupils glistened in the bright and dark lights, as if he had been wronged .

Ji Heng glanced at his eyes and lips quietly, feeling a little relented.

"Did you take the national exam?" He asked proactively.

"participated."

"Did you pass the exam?"

"Ah."

The honest and obedient attitude of the young man benefited Ji Heng: "That's right, it's no problem to go to the logistics department of Fort Naro on this condition."

Ning Suiyuan: "So you are?"

"Miangui's surname is Ji." Ji Heng smiled slightly: "Director of the Military Department."

Ning Suiyuan's eyes gradually showed a trace of eagerness, "Director Ji!" He pushed a document over and said seriously: "This is my national examination result, I want to join the army."

The colorful lights hit the report card, and all the scores were at the peak, Ji Heng's expression was a little subtle.

"Join the army? But you're a Beta."

"There's no rule that says Beta can't join the army!"

Ji Heng inhaled: "I was so indifferent to me one second ago, and then he asked me to have a relationship with me the next second. Am I a tool person?"

Ning Suiyuan was a little dazed, under the changing neon lights, the crimson color spread from his delicate ears to his neck.

"You can make... a friend." He said with difficulty.

This Beta is arrogant and a bit squeamish, but his embarrassment makes one's heart itch. Ji Heng teased him a little bit, and waved to the bartender: "Have a glass of water of life." ?”

Ning Suiyuan: "Ah..."

"What? Haven't you ever drank?" Ji Heng said, "Still can't drink?"

Ning Suiyuan lowered his eyes, as if he was guessing Ji Heng's voice-over.

After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind: "Okay, I'll drink with you."

He took the glass and drank it down in one gulp, then coughed again and again after being choked by the spicy high-purity vodka.

With this gesture of drinking, Ji Heng was sure that he really didn't know how to drink, and couldn't help but regret making this request.

"Is that... okay?" Ning Suiyuan put the glass on the table, panting, he felt a wave of overwhelming discomfort.

Ji Heng was stunned, "Are you okay?" He couldn't help stretching his arms to comfort Ning Suiyuan's back: "I think you seem to—"

Just at this moment, the young man lost consciousness, and fell into his arms along his arms.

When Ning Suiyuan woke up, he himself was receiving an IV in the town medical station.

"I want to join the army!" He only remembered this incident in a trance, and blurted out: "Director Ji!"

"Join the army?" The nurse beside the bed thought he was talking in his sleep, "What army did you join for liver damage?"

"what?!"

"Your liver function is defective." The nurse looked at the checklist and said, "If you drink such strong wine, the gods will not be able to save you."

Ning Suiyuan was stunned.

His health has always been good, and he has never encountered any liver damage.

He had a drink with an Alpha last night, and then lost consciousness.

A thought flashed through his mind.

"Is the chief of the Military Department surnamed Ji?" He asked with difficulty, "It could be Ji or Ji—"

"I only know of a director named Yao in the Military Department." After registering his vital signs, the nurse seemed to remember something: "By the way, the person who brought you here left something for you, under your pillow."

Ning Suiyuan frowned, he raised his hand to feel under the pillow, and found a thin ticket.

It was a truck carrying a passenger ticket, and it was bound for the Narlow Military Academy in the sixth district in the early morning of the day after tomorrow.

Ning Suiyuan fell back on the pillow, he realized that he had been cheated, a slick profiteer had played with his trust, tricked him into escaping after drinking with him.

What is throwing down a ticket?Prostitution? ?

"Alpha really doesn't have a good thing!" He murmured.

The author has something to say:

Ning Suiyuan: I have been tricked.

He didn't mean to play with you!Who made your liver bad!

As for why it's bad - a secret!
