The script for ‘Golden Sponsor’ and ‘Canary’ transformed into the covert roles of ‘Spy’ and ‘Blackmailed individual.’

Isn’t it fascinating?

— Being used, unable to let go, yet still feeling anger.

Isn’t it quite interesting?

“Morning.”

Si Huaixi’s expression appeared ‘friendly’ as ever, his misty eyes reflecting the figure before him, and his lips forming a beautiful smile.

Pei Zhaozhou inexplicably felt awkward; it seemed that in his mind, Si Huaixi should have smiled more genuinely and vividly.

However, he had impulsively revealed Si Huaixi’s true identity last night, so it was normal for him to revert back to his original demeanor.

A trace of disappointment flashed through Pei Zhaozhou’s eyes, but he quickly composed himself and looked at Si Huaixi with keen vigilance, asking, “Indeed, I have felt the disappearance of the pain in my glands. However, I have been observing your actions all along and still can’t figure out what method you used to alleviate the pheromone disorder, a problem that even the Empire’s top medical technology team couldn’t solve.”

“No trace of any extra scent, residual drugs, or radiation is detectable, which means you didn’t employ drugs or special light to solve it.”

Pei Zhaozhou gazed at Si Huaixi with a complex and meaningful look, furrowing his brow as he asked, “Could it be that the Federation’s medical technology in this field has surpassed the Empire’s level?”

Si Huaixi smiled but remained silent, his eyes filled with a subtle hint of anger.

Pei Zhaozhou’s expression changed unpredictably. Since the Federation had already conducted thorough research in this area, they must have studied the uncontrollable outbreaks of Alpha pheromone disorder in great detail.

Due to the lack of Omega soothing in the military’s Alpha soldiers, they often suffer from hormonal frenzy due to the prolonged exposure to an environment filled with agitation, chaos, repression, bloodshed, and stress.

Even though the Empire’s military provides suppressive drugs, long-term usage depletes energy and weakens the body. Pei Zhaozhou had also used them before, experiencing mental fatigue and physical weakness for a period of time after each use. The side effects were even more severe for ordinary Alpha soldiers, causing muscle paralysis and aching, making it impossible for them to get out of bed all day.

Pei Zhaozhou knew very well that he was now facing a spy. Driven by despicable selfishness, he was going to engage in a deal with this treacherous spy. However, he still hoped to maximize the Empire’s interests. The items he offered for the trade were just some mediocre mech designs, but with his collaboration with the smart brain, Silver Arc, they were already capable of producing S+ level mechs that the enemy Federation would never surpass.

Pei Zhaozhou’s expression grew serious as he sincerely pondered and strategized, as if preparing for an important negotiation.

“Si Huaixi, you’ve already admitted to being a spy for the Federation, but now I propose a deal with you…”

Si Huaixi narrowed his eyes and replied, “Who said I admitted?”

Pei Zhaozhou held back the words he was about to say, his frozen gaze showing a hint of coldness and distrust. He argued, “Otherwise, how else can I explain it? You, a weak Beta at E-level, have achieved so many impossible things?”

Si Huaixi’s eyes deepened.

— If this person isn’t Pei Zhaozhou, he must have erased his memory using psychic abilities.

Even in the era of peace, one should not underestimate people. A shimmer flickered in Si Huaixi’s eyes. He had been careless, thinking that by understanding the truth of this world within the book, he could act arrogantly.

However, Brother Pei, with his keen insight, noticed something amiss. Fortunately, he only believed him to be a spy and also thought that he possessed the ability to control the treatment of pheromone disorder. He wanted to trade high-end technological blueprints for that ability.

As for Si Huaixi’s psychic ability to treat Pei Zhaozhou’s pheromone disorder, he was completely unaware. If psychic abilities could provide a cure, what use would there be for curing ability users in the apocalypse? It would be better to have all psychic ability users encompassed.

It must be due to some mysterious compatibility between Pei Zhaozhou and his psychic ability that triggered the healing effect through psychic feedback. The intertwining of their souls at the spiritual level might be the reason for the profound connection they shared.

Si Huaixi didn’t want to reveal to anyone that he was a psychic ability user, but Pei Zhaozhou’s persistent pursuit of the truth left him somewhat helpless.

He was reluctant to erase Pei Zhaozhou’s memories concerning him, so the only option left was to hypnotize him and make him forget all the unusual aspects.

“Brother Pei, come here. I will explain everything to you gradually.”

Si Huaixi’s deep eyes, as profound as the sea, no longer exuded their previous calm and tranquility, but concealed a surging turmoil.
