Chapter 1
V.
The camouflaged helicopter flew low, pa.s.sing over the lush mountains.
Chen Boqiao changed his prison uniform in the narrow s.p.a.ce behind the engine room.
The pullover and slacks that Zhang Jue prepared for him were stacked neatly and placed on an iron frame welded to the ground. The clothing design was simple, clean and fit. The clothes was wore by someone like carefully selected from the second-hand market.
In order to avoid a sky-high forest, the helicopter flew to the side for a while, the ground in the engine room formed an inclination and the prison uniform slid.
Chen Boqiao stood still. He pulled on the zip of the casual pants, fastened the b.u.t.tons, looked at himself in the small mirror on the wall, walked back to Zhang Jue and sat down, wearing sound insulation earm.u.f.fs.
Zhang Jue was looking at the electronic map on the tablet, and the red dots representing their coordinates were slowly moving to the south.
An hour later, they approached the border between the Asian Union and the Independent State of Thailand.
The density of border defense stations in the border forest is very high, and the ammunition of each border defense station can knock down their planes. If they fly directly, there is little hope of survival.
Chen Boqiao looked around. There was no place nearby for helicopters to take off and land safely, so he approached Zhang Jue, touched Zhang Jue"s shoulder, and asked, “How do we get through there?”
Zhang Jue turned his head, watching Chen Boqiao finishes his words, and asked inexplicably, “What?”
Chen Boqiao sighed and moved closer, dragged Zhang Jue"s earm.u.f.fs down, and pressed his ears and asked, “Zhang Jue, how can we get over?”
Zhang Jue probably heard it this time. His pale complexion seemed to be a little whiter, and he leaned back inexplicably, answering Chen Boqiao, “Follow me.”
Chen Boqiao shrugged in compromise.
Flying for a while, Zhang Jue reached out and patted the mercenaries sitting in front of them. Gesticulate the action, the others got up from the seat and gave them the umbrella bag they had arranged.
After took over, Chen Boqiao flipped the umbrella bag upside down and asked, “How does this umbrella open?”
“You don"t know how to use?” Zhang Jue was surprised.
“I didn"t use the parachute,” Chen Boqiao said.
The two were very close, and Chen Boqiao saw Zhang Jue"s black hair falling a few that behind his ears, and swayed with the movement of the hand.
Zhang Jue thought for a while, put his umbrella bag on his back first, and let Chen Boqiao stand in front, take the spare lock ring on his waist, and tighten inward.
Zhang Jue"s action of buckling around Chen Boqiao"s waist was quick as if someone was pushing him in the back to urge him.
“Only in this way, put up with it.” Zhang Jue buckled themselves, and said to Chen Boqiao.
Then he glanced out the window, Chen Boqiao followed him, and just happened to see a small canyon, and cut a light-colored gap between the dark green mountains.
Chen Boqiao stood in front of Zhang Jue. They first kept a short distance. After a short time, Zhang Jue held his arm again.
Zhang Jue pulled Chen Boqiao and surrounded him from behind. Zhang Jue"s shirt was very thin and his waist was very slim. The temperature of Zhang Jue"s body was affixed to the palm of Chen Boqiao through the fabric, making the movement strange.
Chen Boqiao did his best to maintain a polite distance, but the two were close to each other with no c.h.i.n.k, and he could not help smelling the very personal pheromone smell on Zhang Jue.
The light musk was mixed with a bitter apricot flavor, which was not very offensive and did not make Chen Boqiao feel uncomfortable, but for the Omegas, Zhang Jue may indeed be unattractive.
Alpha develops height after differentiation; and muscles become strong; pheromone scatters and attracts each other.
The school, Chen Boqiao and Zhang Jue once went, in order to prevent adolescent students of the opposite s.e.x from being affected by pheromones too much, would rea.s.sign the residence and campus after differentiation. In order to protect their children, most parents of omega students also choose to transfer to omega colleges after differentiation. With little impression, Chen Boqiao felt that Zhang Jue must belong to the kind that would not change much before and after differentiation.
In fact, Chen Boqiao can"t remember whether Zhang Jue confessed before or after his differentiation according Pei Su"s words. Chen Boqiao has refused too many people, which would not cause embarra.s.sment and impoliteness, so he never remember. Judging by common sense, if it does happen, it should be before.
While Chen Boqiao was absent-minded, the helicopter hatch opened, and the wind outside blew in, making everyone"s hands and face ache.
“I"m going to jump.” Zhang Jue said, pressing his cold fingertips on the back of Chen Boqiao"s hand, and immediately released it.
Chen Boqiao subconsciously glanced backward, only to see Zhang Jue"s red ears, because Zhang Jue was very white, and the flushing was particularly obvious.
However, before Chen Boqiao had time to think about it, Zhang Jue jumped down.
The free-fall time of low-level skydiving was very short. Zhang Jue quickly adjusted his posture, opened the parachute, and floated down from the canyon.
The bottom of the canyon was mostly turbulent water, and a narrow flat land can be found by taking a closer look.
The sound of gurgling water and wind wrapped around them. Chen Boqiao was next to Zhang Jue"s shoulders, and the ground was getting closer and closer to them. Zhang Jue"s shoulder muscles were stiff, which was because of concentration or tension.
After a short while, the two fell to the ground and took off their parachuting gear.
There was a small cave at the bottom of the ground, and a brown-skinned young man stood at the entrance. The young man had worn a thick cotton jacket, rubbing his head with his hands shrinking, like he has been waiting for a long time.
He saw Zhang Jue and Chen Boqiao, saying “Sir, you are on time,” he stared at Chen Boqiao.
Zhang Jue nodded his head and asked the youth blandly, “Can we go?”
“Yes, I just checked the surveillance,” said the young man, and suddenly turned to Chen Boqiao, and said to him, “Senior colonel, you can rest a.s.sured that our business has been deserted recently, and everyone has gone to the urban for the winter. Today I"m watching this road alone. You followed me with absolutely safe, and no fourth person would know where you have been from.”
Then he turned on the searchlight and led them into the cave.
Walking a short distance along the dim and wet cave, they reached the entrance to the secret road leading to the independent country of Thailand.
The entrance switch is located next to the stalact.i.tes above the head. The youth turned left and right a few times, and a door on the side of the foot slowly opened.
The young man held the lamp with his mouth and climbed down the shelf first.
Chen Boqiao did not immediately follow him. He looked at the rough but practical door of the construction and turned his head to ask, ” A gang of people crossing the border illegally?”
“Yes,” Zhang Jue glanced at him and explained to the youth, “He is your supporter.”
Chen Boqiao smiled and didn"t express his opinion. He walked to the door and stepped on the shelf slowly crawled down.
This secret road used for illegal cross-borders has been dug for some years. Some rechargeable energy-saving lamps were hung on the soil walls. Most of the lamps are faintly lighted, in which were also a few of them out of power.
Twenty-five years ago, the satellite navigation plan of the Asian Union, which was fully supported by the current President Zhao Kun, was deployed. It invested billions of dollars and launched 29 satellites. It has been in operation for more than ten years and claims to cover the whole world. A secret pa.s.sage that has been used for many years cannot be found.
Chen Boqiao walked along the uneven road and silently followed the youth to move forward.
After more than two hours, they saw the starlight of the independent country of Thailand.

“h.e.l.lo, the user you dialed is inconvenient to answer your call now, please leave your message after.”
“I"ve seen my uncle, and I"ve talked to him, Zhang Jue, do you have a conscience! Use me again.
“But forget it, as long as the part about differentiation promoter is true, I will barely forgive you.
“My father has just got home. He told me that the negotiations between the Asian Federation and several neighboring independent countries that have established diplomatic relations have ended, and a large-scale joint search has begun.
“I hope that you and that person have already arrived in the independent country of Thailand. It is safer there, and I will still go to Bangkok tomorrow.
“Good night.”
