Chapter 217 Admiral Beta is the romantic male partner (43)
Qiao Yu felt his hands and feet go numb, his heart was beating wildly in his chest. He knew that Lin Shen would leave, he would definitely leave.
Lin Shen walked towards him step by step, his eyes were completely cold, without a trace of emotion.
Qiao Yu froze in place, the panic of losing Lin Shen coming over him like a tide, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
He instinctively wanted to reach out and grab Lin Shen's hand, trying to keep him with a final effort, but Lin Shen nimbly dodged his touch.
Qiao Yu's hand remained stiff in mid-air, and his heart sank.
He choked and spoke, his voice filled with an undisguised plea: "Shen Shen, I..."
Lin Shen didn't look at him, but turned his gaze to Qiao Jili.
He didn't expect Qiao Jili to be here. Qiao Jili also looked at him, swallowed nervously, and asked in a dry voice: "Are you okay?"
Qiao Jili was not good at speaking. When he saw the dense marks on Lin Shen's neck and his swollen lips, the guilt and pain in his heart made him not know what to say.
Lin Shen saw Qiao Jili's expression and thought that he was probably worried that his brother would violate federal laws.
Lin Shen actually really wanted to teach Qiao Yu a lesson, but he knew that Qiao Yu was a son of luck, so he couldn't do anything. Instead, he had to protect him from doing anything that would hurt himself.
After what happened yesterday, he probably understood that Qiao Yu really liked the original owner, otherwise he would not have done such extreme things as kidnapping and imprisonment.
Lin Shen didn't want to bother with Qiao Yu anymore. He could take this opportunity to separate from Qiao Yu, complete his mission, and then plan his "escape".
He took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound calm: "I'm fine, don't worry."
When Qiao Yu heard this, his heart was broken. He knew that Lin Shen was deliberately distancing himself from him, but he was powerless to change it.
He looked at Lin Shen's cold expression, and his heart was filled with despair. He knew that he might really lose Lin Shen, and the pain made him almost unable to stand.
Lin Shen turned around and looked at Qiao Yu, his expression could be described as cold and disgusted, "Qiao Yu, I won't make a fuss about it this time. We will have no relationship in the future, so take care of yourself."
Lin Shen did not stop. He walked straight past Qiao Jili without any hesitation or looking back.
Qiao Yu's body was shaking, his hands hung weakly, and his eyes revealed deep loss and pain.
He would rather Lin Shen scolded him and beat him than have Lin Shen look at him with such coldness and disgust.
He watched Lin Shen leave, and his world seemed to completely collapse at this moment.
Lin Shen naturally returned to his residence, and the first thing he did was to go to the nutrition cabin to heal his wounds.
He took off his clothes, revealing bite marks all over his body. The marks spread all over his skin, looking particularly shocking.
He was lying in the nutrition cabin, and couldn't help but want to greet Qiao Yu's ancestors. He felt angry and helpless about Qiao Yu's crazy behavior.
In the soft light of the nutrition cabin, Lin Shen closed his eyes and began to think about his own story.
He has broken up with Qiao Yu, which means he has completed an important mission in this world.
Now, there was nothing much for him to worry about in this world, except for the upcoming war.
Although the battle ended with his death, it was actually a victory.
Therefore, his goal now is to reduce deaths as much as possible, as long as he can ensure that he can "die" properly and win the war.
Lin Shen knew that he needed to find out the truth of what happened as soon as possible and find the person named Xiaojiu.
Xiaojiu is the key to the whole incident. He must find Xiaojiu before the war breaks out and uncover the secrets behind it.
Lin Shen lay in the nutrition cabin for several hours. Only when he felt his body had almost recovered did he slowly open the cabin door and walk out.
He put on simple clothes, sat in front of the computer, and began to sort out all the information and clues, looking for any trace of Xiaojiu.
He must uncover all the mysteries before the decisive battle and ensure that his "death" can bring true peace.
Lin Shen sat in front of the computer, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, his thoughts returning to his previous plan.
Originally, he planned to personally ask Qiao Jili about Xiaojiu. However, after the incident with Qiao Yu, Lin Shen felt quite complicated, but he knew that the importance of military affairs could not be ignored.
After making up his mind, Lin Shen turned on his light brain, called up the communication interface, and sent a message.
[Commander Qiao, I want to ask if you know a man named Xiaojiu? He was a soldier who used to be with Chu Qingqian.]
Lin Shen waited for a few seconds, but no message came, instead he got a video call.
Lin Shen's finger gently pressed the answer button, and Qiao Jili's handsome face immediately appeared on the screen. His sudden appearance startled Lin Shen.
Qiao Jili's facial features appear more three-dimensional on the screen, and his eyes reveal a hint of depth.
Qiao Jili's voice came out calmly from the speaker: "Have you found any clues?"
Lin Shen's attitude changed quickly, and his originally relaxed expression became serious.
He nodded seriously and replied, "Chu Xu told me a few days ago that his sister once mentioned a man named Xiao Jiu, saying that he was very powerful and his sister seemed to like him very much."
Qiao Jili was silent for a few seconds, as if he was seriously thinking about Lin Shen's words.
Lin Shen did not disturb him, but just waited quietly.
After a while, Qiao Jili spoke: "I'm not sure who you are talking about. But Chu Qingqian did have a confidant, but he died on the battlefield, the same battlefield where Chu Qingqian died."
Lin Shen nodded to show his understanding.
Qiao Jili continued, "We can check the register, which records the information of soldiers every year."
Lin Shen nodded again, indicating that he agreed with Qiao Jili's proposal.
After the military discussion was over, Lin Shen was about to hang up the phone when Qiao Jili's voice suddenly rang again, with a hint of concern: "Are you feeling better?"
Lin Shen nodded slightly and replied simply: "Yes."
Then, without waiting for Qiao Jili to say anything else, he directly pressed the hang up button.
The picture on the screen suddenly went dark, and Qiao Jili's image disappeared from the screen, leaving Lin Shen sitting alone in front of the computer, continuing his thinking and work.
Qiao Jili looked at the hung up phone and her heart sank. Her happy mood just now fell to the bottom in an instant.
