Chapter 266 - Secret Keeper



Chapter 266 – Secret Keeper

Right by the gate, that girls stopped Yue once again. This time, her top was slightly torn. "help!" she threw herself at him.

"please help. Some ruffians are trying to kidnap me!" she cried, hugging him tightly..

Yue instantly pushed her away from him, keeping a hand distance from her body. "who…" he looked around. There were only soldiers here.

Some of them were, in fact, looking their way and whispering.

Yue frowned. \'maybe this girl was bullied. Is that why she wanted me to escort her…..\'

"please…." she cried softly.

"fine. Tell me where your house is…"

"it\'s this way~" she happily led the way.

Zou Yue silently followed after her.

The path she took was completely unfamiliar. It was on the other side of the barrack, deeper into the small town. He had gone to that place only once and was not familiar with the routes there.

He vigilantly kept a lookout behind them and up front.

It did look like a few of them were following them, but since he was with her, they did not take any action.

"thank you for your timely help. If it want for you, I would have been molested…" she sweetly smiled at him.

It was completely out of her character. For a second, Yue frowned. \'can a person change so drastically in a matter of seconds… or was this her true self? Was she acting snobbish to appear strong?\'

"your name Is Yue, right… shit, someone is behind us.."

Yue snapped his head back, peering at the empty road. The ones who were following them were nowhere in sight. "I don\'t think the…"

A sharp pain to the side of his neck doused him back to reality.

He was stabbed by a syringe….

Yue swiftly punched her face and threw her away. The syringe was still sticking out. He pulled it and tossed it away.

"what did you give me…"

His eyes were starting to get fuzzy.

It was definitely some sort of anaesthetic .

\'fuck I was careless.\' Through his dull eyes, he watched the girl crawl away from him. A few more figures approached him and gripped his hand tightly.

\'I hate it… helpless.. I feel helpless…..\'

The men dragged him away towards some place.

Halfway, he was conscious but after that, he could not open his eyes.

\'ah… I feel stupid.. why did I even try to help others..i…. should have ….minded my business.\'

"what are you doing?"

Prisitsky glanced back in shock. Hary was standing there with a deep frown on his face. "Why are you eating dirt?"

"i…" he peered at the rock in his hand. It had crumbled to black dirt. He swiftly hid it in his pocket and wiped his mouth clean. "it\'s not dirt.. it\'s.. it\'s coco powder.. I brought it along as a small snack…"

The young general had already stormed close and gripped his hand.

"what are you doing!"

"Your hand doesn\'t smell like cocoa. Doctor, why are you lying to me…. you don\'t eat.. no, you can\'t eat anything for a while can\'t you? at first I thought it was an eating disorder or your tummy might be uncomfortable but no. it was because you literally can\'t eat food. All you can eat is this?"

With his fair hands Hary picked up the black tar like rocks and crumbled it into powered. "hmmm…. you look better already…"

Prisitsky shot up. "I told you to mind your fucking business. Why do you always follow me around like a lost puppy? Don\'t you have a job to do!"

"I do. My job is to safeguard everyone in this settlement. Somehow.. I feel like your presence will risk that…."

Prisitsky\'s heart started to pound loudly. he stumbled back. "I\'m not… I\'m not infected! i.. I just feel like eating dirt. Even dogs and cats eat dirt to…. help digest their meals. It\'s like that. it\'s my secret therapy.." he tried evading the topic.

But with Hary\'s expression he knew that he was not at all convinced.

"fuck so what? I eat dirt. Just go and fuck yourself and leave me be!"

Hary suddenly started to collect all the smaller black rocks and stored it in his pocket.

"what are you doing? Hey those are mine!" he crumbled down and took the rocks from him.

Hary just let him. "I was collecting them for you,"\'

"stop lying, you had other plans!" prisitsky hurriedly bagged removed his lab coat. He collected all the meteor shards on it and tied it up like a make shift bag.

Hary just sat there with a dazzling smirk on his face. upon close look, his blond hair shimmered like gold.

For a second, prisitsky was stunned. He had to admit the young man was very very handsome…. but…

He shook his head and lifted the bag up. "I\'m not going to repeat myself, general. Next time you intervene in my business I will…"\'

"will what?" Hary stood up, patting the dust off his pants. "will what, doctor? Will you hit me? scold me? shout at me? all of which I can handle."

"i… I will report you for sexual harassment."

"to whom? Me?…" Hary smirked widely. "give up, I\'m going to be a pain in the butt as long as you stay here. and I will monitor your health as well. this thing is not normal," he poked the bag in his hand. "and I want a timely report of your health as a reassurance,"\'

Prisitsky gritted his teeth loudly. "Fine! I will! Just…. don\'t follow me!"

He rushed, trying his best to put as much as distance as he could from the desperate blond puppy, but to his dismay he could hear a pair footstep follow him.

"I told you not to follow me!"

Hary just shrugged. "but we are gong the same way. In what way am I following you? ay, you\'re overreacting, mister prisitsky,"

"doctor! I\'m doctor to you,"\'

"yes mister prisitsky doctor. I shall address you so," Hary walked beside him with a bright grin. "you\'re seriously not dying, right?"

"I…" Prisitsky glanced up. The young lad really did seem worried about his health. "I\'m not dying.. for now. this rock shall sustain for a bit…."

"I will find more for you. I\'m pretty sure some of them would be stacked away just like this pile."

"I don\'t have hope for that,"

They both were walking seemed unusually harmonious.

But prisitsky knew it was the silence before the storm. This crazy young man was a potential danger to his identity. Yes, he was dying, but he did not want to die after being captured or imprisoned by crazy scientist like Qian.

\'ah look how the tables have turned.. fuck it. this is karma.\'

Blindly, he followed Hary\'s lead.

Only after a few seconds did he realise that they were walking on a completely different route.

"where are we going.." he froze. \'is this where he is going to secretly kill me.. i…\' he looked at his built. Hary was very muscular and can easily throw him down and choke him…. \'fighting is not a viable option. Only thing left is to run!\'

Without a second thought, he bolted to the other side.

"hey! why are you running? Wait doctor! That\'s dangerous! Come back here ," Hary calmly said as he ran parallel to him.

Prisitsky was horrified. "How is this monster able to catch up to me. I\'m running at my highest speed!!! Ahhhh no way. No fucking way. I don\'t want to die in that qian\'s hands. No no!\'

"doctor seriously stop. I might have to tackle you down." Hary chuckled loudly. he did not even break a sweat.

While…. priestly was already drenched from head to toe.

His body was already undernourished. That one rock filled his stomach a bit and gave him a bit of energy.

But all that disappeared from his 100 meters sprint with this manic.

He stopped when his legs started to burn from exhaustion.

"ah you stopped. Finally. I thought you might run all around the barrack before you do,"

He gently patted his back. "can you walk back? do you want me to give you a piggy back ride?"

Prisitsky panted. He could not even utter a word.. he silently shook his head. "don\'t.. don\'t kill me…"\'

"why would i?"

Hary looked genuinely confused by his words.

Prisitsky frowned deeply. "then why.. why did you take.. me on the wrong path?"

"oh.. that..i was slightly distracted. I was thinking about how to hide your unique features. If you are stuck in the labs, you will not be disturbed, but what about your room? it\'s a shared room right. they might find clues about your changes, so I was thinking of finding a small room for you."

Prisitsky blinked… "then… you won\'t kill me?"

"why should i? You\'re doing your best to take care of your symptoms and trying your best to solve the plant virus problem. If we lose you, we will only have Qian. And Qian alone can\'t do everything,"

\'oh that\'s why…\' he stood up stretching his back. "lean low."

"huh?"\'

"get down, I\'ll jump on your back. fuck you made an old man run so much,"

"you\'re in your thirties, right?"

"yeah that\'s\' why I\'m old. you kids are so energetic…"

Hary softly chucked.

Prisitsky held his neck tightly. \'this is also good. now that this guy is on my side, I can easily hide myself…\' he glanced around at the field.

Suddenly he spotted three men dragging someone into an alleyway.

"Hey, there\'s someone there. I think they are hurt.

"really?" Hary let him down. "stay here. and don\'t go anywhere.. I\'ll go check it out."
