I have no pheromones, you smelled wrong

When Heinrich sent a video message, Lin Xu had just walked out of the bathroom wearing a towel. He was sitting at the desk with the towel on his shoulders. His wet hair hadn't dried yet, and water droplets rolled down from the ends of his hair.

After pressing the answer button, Heinrich's face appeared on the screen. From Lin Xu's perspective, all the food he ordered for Heinrich had been taken care of.

But he only drank a few sips of the blue fruit wine, and Heinrich still had a work plan to complete in a while, so he couldn't go there smelling of alcohol.

"You... How are you doing with your affairs? Do you need my help?"

Heinrich did not expect that Lin Xu had just finished taking a shower, and he was covered with only a bath towel on his shoulders, which was slightly wrapped and covered his chest, but the cold pale skin that was exposed looked more beautiful than the off-white soft bath towel. fair and clear.

Because of his thin body, when he breathes up and down, he can see the faint marks of his ribs under the skin.

Heinrich immediately adjusted the video light screen to an opaque state that is visible in one direction.

Ryan didn't know what happened on the other side, he only saw a flash of color blocks: "? Is Mr. Lin okay?"

Heinrich glanced at him, "He's okay, he's just busy with something."

Lin Xu watched Heinrich's face change from the other end of the electromagnetic wave, and wanted to laugh, but the tightness in his chest made him uncomfortable.

"It's nothing serious, you don't need to help." When Lin Xu replied, he pulled the towel on his shoulder.

The water dripping from the long hair soaked the bath towel, even if the milk overflowed due to the heat and friction, some of it was covered by the wet bath towel, and with a screen, the people on the opposite side couldn't see anything unusual.

He didn't mind that Heinrich's gaze always fell on him and glanced at him, but at this time Lin Xu felt that Heinrich's gaze seemed to have a perspective function, which made him stiff for no reason.

Heinrich himself was completely ignorant of Lin Xu's mentality, and still watched his every move with penetrating golden eyes: "I brought you a new spar, and put it in the remaining half of the eggshell."

Lin Xu glanced at the half white eggshell on the bedside, it was indeed full of colorful crystals.

"I saw it."

"Ah."

Lin Xu didn't speak any more, his eyes were as usual on the surface, like the impenetrable morning fog.Unbeknownst to anyone, the droplets were slipping into the groin, following the curves of the seat and pooling, sticking to the skin.

He waited for Heinrich to end the excruciating correspondence, thinking about taking another shower right away.

Heinrich followed him in silence for a while, and then said, "Lin Xu, can I come to you tonight?"

"No." Lin Xu didn't even think about it, only to realize that his tone was abnormally hasty when he said it, and then adjusted his state and added: "I will correct my homework tonight."

When Ryan heard the word homework, he sharply raised his head, facing Heinrich's sharp eyebrows, shrunk his shoulders and lowered his head, pretending that he didn't exist.

The fleet is sailing in the vast sea of ​​stars, and countless portholes always throw countless cool starlight or dazzling starlight into the Victoria.

Starlight is beautiful, but passengers on interstellar voyages can no longer tell time from the motion of these celestial bodies.

Heinrich returned to his room after finishing a series of affairs, and found Lin Xu standing in front of his closet. He was accompanied by a half-human, tall and chubby intelligent housekeeping robot. The robotic arm of the robot was piled with military uniforms as high as a hill.

Lin Xu tidied up the military uniform and combat uniform one by one, and hung them back in the closet.

Heinrich's military uniforms, frock coats, and dresses are all made of black, and white and gray are added to the combat uniforms and space uniforms.

The nest that Lin Xu built in the room also had these three slightly monotonous colors, but he made the nest messy, adding a bit of vitality and warmth to the monotony.

With the end of childbirth, the physiological desire for a safe and warm nest gradually dissipated. Lin Xu washed all the "materials" with his own hands, and then let the intelligent housekeeping robot take them for a second cleaning and disinfection, and finally sorted them according to type and color. Hang up.

Ashamed to say, when he opened Heinrich's wardrobe with the cleaned clothes, he found that Heinrich's original full wardrobe had been stolen by the nesting mermaid, leaving only a few poor clothes.

"You... just came back from work?"

"Hmm." Heinrich approached.

"It's six o'clock in the morning on a 24-hour clock. You haven't slept all night?"

Heinrich paused for a while looking at Lin Xu's beautiful eyes. He often forgot the time when he was working.

"No."

"Go and rest, I'll finish tidying up soon, and I won't disturb you for too long." Lin Xuru said, speeding up the speed of hanging back the clothes in his hands.

"You can leave them with you."

"What?" Lin Xu turned his face and raised his eyebrows to look at him, his mind was still working hard to understand Heinrich's words.

Heinrich: "Maybe next time you need to build a nest."

"And next time?" Lin Xu asked again.

Heinrich suddenly realized that there was an offensive hint in his words, and was about to make amends, but Lin Xu shook his head and smiled, "I hope there will be no next time."

"This time... this egg is not a normal product." Lin Xu continued, "Genes are selfish. Under the extreme crisis of Shaxing, it thinks that I cannot survive, and wants to create a new carrier to continue itself. The nest I built can give it...give me the safety and protection to conceive and produce the next carrier, but a single egg has only half of the chromosomes, and there is no way to give birth to a new life, it failed, and I am still alive."

When Lin Xu talked about the approaching crisis and death, he was very peaceful, and he didn't stop tidying up. He was not wearing a space uniform at the moment, but changed into the old clothes brought from Endymion.

A black turtleneck sweater was covered with a layer of thin knitted sweater, which was fluffy and soft instead of cutting off the coldness and hardness of the brand-new and delicate clothes.

After the pregnancy was over, the sweet smell on Lin Xu's body was going to fade away, but Heinrich smelled a bit of powdery milk smell, not childish, but reminiscent of the morning sun.

The starship sails in the vacuum of the universe, without clouds, fog and air. Under the Tyndall effect, the sun beam that seems to be diffused as a solid cannot be formed. The light of the stars directly penetrates the special glass, revealing sharp and regular geometric shapes on the steel ground.

But the sunlight in the mountains and on the lake in the early morning is always dreamy and unreal, and the smell of milk in the air also appears and disappears from time to time, making Heinrich unable to confirm.

He took a combat uniform from the mechanical arm and put it on the hanger, "I'll do it."

"It's okay." Lin Xu continued his movements.

Heinrich didn't persuade him anymore, and put the washed clothes back together with Lin Xu, but he hesitated where to hang the clothes.

These things were previously complicated by intelligent robots. They usually arrange clothes according to the date of use and washing, and they do not classify them like Lin Xu.

Facing a row of hung military uniforms, Heinrich thought about Lin Xu's classification rules for a while, and hung the combat uniforms in the closet according to his idea.

Lin Xu looked at Heinrich's dark eyes, and asked again: "Can't sleep again?"

"...Hmm." Heinrich pursed his lips in a deep voice.

During pregnancy, sometimes Heinrich helped Lin Xu solve the restlessness of the fish tail and helped him clean it up before returning to work, but sometimes he would sleep with Lin Xu in his arms.

He lay on his side and hugged Lin Xu, closed his eyes and stopped turning them, but Lin Xu listened to Heinrich's breathing and knew that it would take him a long time to fall asleep.

Lin Xu also had a period of difficulty falling asleep. The busy work in the base made his work and rest chaotic and upside down, and he could not form a stable biological clock at all. He often ended a paragraph of the work at hand and gave him a little time to rest, but he was mentally exhausted and tense. I couldn't sleep no matter what, the numbers of reserves, casualties, and transactions hovered in my mind for a long time, and I couldn't get rid of them.

He was still in an administrative position at that time, without the physical strengthening brought about by supernatural powers and transformation, and the high-intensity continuous rotation work caused nervous headaches and physical weakness to haunt him all the time. You have to pack yourself up and appear in front of people with a calm face, a sincere smile and caring sympathy.

Survivors of the base, trapped in the hopeless atmosphere of the apocalypse, need a strong but kind leader to give them confidence and comfort.

The Marion Empire in the interstellar era is not perfect, but at least it is thriving on the surface, and it will not spread irreparable despair.

But the crux of work stress is not whether society is peaceful and prosperous, but the work itself that has to be done in a systemic industrialized society.

Lin Xu was able to temporarily put aside his work at the Museum of Ancient Earth and be lazy, but the Marshal of the Abyss Fleet, who was in charge of the entire fleet, had no easy chance.

Thinking about it, Lin Xu quickly hung up the last military uniform in the wardrobe and closed the heavy cabinet door.

The cabinet door made a dull sound, and Heinrich asked, "Are you going back?"

Logically speaking, this should be the case. Lin Xugang said that he would not bother Heinrich anymore after finishing the laundry.

Lin Xu didn't answer right away. He bent down and pressed the shutdown button of the housekeeping robot. The green light on the robot's round head flashed twice and then went out.

Heinrich was still puzzled, but Lin Xu approached step by step, raised his head slightly, and looked into Heinrich's eyes from a close distance, "Marshal Chu, I have a question."

This title made Heinrich nervous, what did Lin Xu want to do?

"The material of the military uniform is tough, you keep pressing it, doesn't it hurt?"

Heinrich lost his breath for a moment, and immediately realized what Lin Xu was saying. At this moment, Lin Xu hooked Heinrich's palm, itching slightly like a feather scratching it, and he raised his knee forward again.

This time it's not a fish tail, it's not covered by hard scales, it's much softer and more dexterous.

It didn't hurt at first, but now it hurts.

Heinrich's expressionless and stern face did not change in the slightest, but Lin Xu could see many things. He took Heinrich's hand and leaned into his ear, "Do you want me to help you? Just Help you, nothing else, it won't be too long, and you can sleep well afterwards."

It's not that Lin Xu doesn't want to take a step closer, it's just that his current situation is not convenient.

But learning to be a craftsman probably won't be hard.

The blankness and blankness of the mind after venting can make people forget many things, whether it is an annoying job or a bustling human being.

Empty your mind and get a good night's sleep.

The light hit Heinrich's face from top to bottom, and the high brow bone cast a shadow in the eye socket, covering the upper part of the golden pupil, but the lower part was like transparent golden amber under the lamp.

He stared at Lin Xu, and Lin Xu also straightened up and looked back, without any shyness or timidity, he smiled and said, "Marshal Chu, you have to speak."

"I'm right in front of you, on your flagship, and you can order me to do anything."

The author has something to say:

Although it has increased, it is after all unused things that have been used, not secondary breast development.
