    Chapter 18 Chapter 18 It’s okay to sleep on the same bed, but the boundary is woof woof woof…

    After taking a bath, the big dog’s coat was dry and refreshed. It was smooth and clean, carrying the fragrance of shower gel. Sijiu was willing to get closer to him when he was giving him daily physical therapy before going to bed.

    Ran Lie enjoyed this feeling very much, and his gaze that followed Si Jiu became more and more profound.

    After the treatment was completed, the scar on the big dog’s abdomen had faded to the point where it was almost invisible.Si Jiu lifted his chin with his hand, rubbed the hair under his neck, made sure it was dry, and then told him softly: “Go to bed.”

    I had a nosebleed while taking a shower. I’m not sure about the internal injuries, let alone catching a cold.

    And a clean dog deserves a bed as a reward.

    “What about you?” Ran Lie raised his head so that Sijiu could masturbate more smoothly.

    “If I sleep on the sofa, you will definitely come over and stay with me, right?” Si Jiu sighed softly, but in just two days, he had become accustomed to Ran Lie being with him everywhere.

    “Woof-” Ran Lie shook his head slightly and answered firmly. His eyes lit up at this moment. The previous depression and profound meaning blended together, giving rise to an eager expectation. His black and yellow hair was light and refreshing. It must be said that as a dog, he was handsome and charming enough.

    This charm is extremely aggressive and possessive.

    Maybe it’s because it’s a dog——

    Si Jiu couldn’t help but lower his eyes. He understood that Ran Lie, as a canine orc, might have separation anxiety, but what he still couldn’t understand was why the object of Ran Lie’s separation anxiety was himself.

    Or is it because of my own healing ability?

    Si Jiu couldn’t help but glance at his hand. If he exerted all his strength, in less than a week, Ran Lie would not be able to find even a trace of scar on his body, but the problem of his inability to humanize…

    With his own abilities, Si Jiu could not guarantee whether he could cure his continued transformation into a beast.

    But if Ran Lie really retires, without the blessing of his special status in the army, he will have to live as a pure beast as a dog——

    Si Jiu felt that he was not opposed to raising a dog now, if the dog was Ran Lie.

    Who would reject a dog that always follows him, feels safe, and although his temper is not very good, is generally quite obedient, at least listening to himself?

    But the premise is that he is really just a simple dog, a simple retired military dog, with no other purpose.

    Ran Lie has always been too confusing and too frank. Just like now, he doesn’t hide it at all. He just wants to squeeze into the same bed with Si Jiu.

    Si Jiu picked up the yellow toy duck from the sofa and walked to the bed.

    Ran Lie moved the tips of his pair of erect ears for no apparent reason, and followed Si Jiu, who was wearing pajamas. Until now, he had not shown much interest in the duck that was placed in a conspicuous place on the sofa, like an inconspicuous ornament.

    Sijiu placed the duck in the middle of the bed. The bed in the apartment was not that big. Sijiu was on the thin side, so even sleeping on half of the bed was more than enough.

    “Using this velvet duck as the boundary, you sleep on the left and I sleep on the right – don’t cross the boundary, the duck will quack.” As he said, Sijiu picked up the duck and pinched it, and the yellow cloth duck indeed made a “quacking” sound.

    Ran Lie looked at the duck and instantly felt a murderous intent.

    “Do you agree?” Si Jiu smiled slightly.

    “Yeah.” Seeing his smile, Ran Lie’s murderous intent dropped sharply, and he nodded almost uncontrollably.

    He was like this just now in the bathroom, smiling so beautifully…

    But the way Ran Lie turned to look at the duck was definitely not kind.

    Si Jiu put the velvet duck back on the bed. Considering the size of the big dog, he was very considerate and left him some more space on the left side.

    Ran Lie jumped on the bed. The muscles on his legs looked strong and strong. He stepped on the bed lightly with his paws.

    Si Jiu’s bed is covered with light blue sheets, with moderate softness. It is definitely more comfortable to sleep on than the sofa bed. More importantly, there is something about Si Jiu’s scent on the bed. Only the sensitive sense of smell of dogs can capture the slightly private scent so clearly…

    Ran Lie recalled the mist and charm in the bathroom, his gaze gently drifted towards Si Jiu searchingly and then moved away pretending to be casual.

    The left is just the left, just a duck.

    He then glared at the duck in the middle, curled up slightly and lay down on the bed without crossing the line.

    Si Jiu covered Ran Lie with a thin quilt and patted his head gently as good night. Then he picked up the thick blanket on the sofa bed and lay down naturally on the right side of the duck.

    Not long after the lights were turned off, even though the big dog on the other side had a pair of black and gold eyes, as if falling into the stars in the darkness, and looked at Si Jiu quietly with a bright look, Si Jiu was not affected by the half bed. He lay down and fell asleep quickly as before, but he had a dream that he had never had before.

    He dreamed of the rebirth of the organization that once existed on Arran Planet.

    The declining Yalan Star, the dilapidated underground refuge base.

    “Si Jiu, why do you want to be a doctor?” The person who asked was Wei Jie, the leader of the organization at the time.He is nearly forty years old, blind in one eye, wearing a black eyepatch all year round, and his hair is wrapped in a long black turban.

    After the explosion, the sky of Yalan Star was filled with wind and sand, and sandstorms came unexpectedly, with dust and toxic substances everywhere.

    Wei Jie leads the remaining humans and struggles to survive, but he always smiles gently to the children in the organization, even to Si Jiu, a lonely and silent young man.

    “I——want to do something for the organization and Yalan Star.” Sijiu, who was wearing a mask, lowered his head and wiped the scalpel in his hand.

    “He always wants to save something. Ha, let me tell you, he is more suitable to be the striker of the search team. His hit rate when throwing a knife is as accurate as my shooting skills.” At this time, the boy who is half a head taller than Si Jiu will definitely interrupt.

    Si Jiu remembered him. He had slightly curly brown hair and a pair of dark brown eyes. He was tall and strong. He was the captain of the young material search team. His name was Luo Hao.

    “Do you want to transfer our search team from the medical team? I will make an exception and directly promote you to deputy captain.” Luo Hao crossed his arms and leaned against the simple pillars of the underground refuge base.

    Si Jiu didn’t answer. He was not familiar with Luo Hao, and after losing his family, he didn’t want to talk to people for a long time.

    The first person he was willing to speak to was Wei Jie.

    Their former human leader.

    “Si Jiu, you have to learn to forget the pain, relax and be gentle, so that you can continue to live your life – if you can, be more humorous, even if you don’t survive tomorrow, I hope you can die with a smile.”

    “Don’t blame me for preaching, Si Jiu. Sometimes, people have to make choices, are you right? We are all just ordinary people, so why can’t we choose to be happy? We must learn to preserve happy memories.”

    “Si Jiu, stay alive and try your best to find a way to survive. You will definitely-” Wei Jie was gentle.

    They believe that hope for planetary recovery still exists.

    “Don’t trust anyone, Si Jiu, not only humans, but also orcs, those strange alien species, you have to trust your own sword!” The last person to speak was Luo Hao, half of his face hidden in the shadows.

    Suddenly, he felt a pain in his arm, and green spots suddenly appeared on his left and right arms. This was a precursor to mutation.

    He didn’t have time to shout out of fear, and a strange green suddenly covered his whole body.

    “They are hopeless, Si Jiu, and so are you. I have no choice but to let you stay here with them.” Wei Jie’s eyes were full of despair and guilt. He said, “Don’t worry, we will look for you soon. Please don’t give up.”

    Si Jiu looked at him. Wei Jie, who was the leader of the organization and had always had high prestige, kept apologizing to those left behind and repeated his promises.

    Wei Jie, who has been leading the entire organization, cried and was very embarrassed: “The Interstellar Rescue Team will help you and send everyone to the interstellar shelter. I will go find you later, I promise!”

    Suddenly, Wei Jie’s embarrassed and tearful face was replaced by Luo Hao’s young, dark and paranoid face. That was Luo Hao, who was taller, stronger, older and colder.

    In the woods at dark night, he sat on a beast with only one green eye, standing straight, but the silhouette of the figure and the familiar voice awakened the dusty memory.

    “Si Jiu, long time no see.”

    Si Jiu woke up suddenly and sat up from the bed, his chest heaving violently and cold sweat covering his forehead.

    “Ah–ah!” He shouted again in shock.

    “Woof! Woof!” A certain large dog immediately screamed in pain.

    Only then did Si Jiu wake up completely and found that he was hugging Ran Lie, who was supposed to be sleeping on the other side of the bed, in an almost murderous posture.

    The early morning sunlight shone in through the windows of the apartment, illuminating everything in the house and witnessing what Si Jiu was doing at this moment.

    He was almost riding on the big dog, his arms tightly wrapped around the dog’s neck.Ran Lie was choked by him and couldn’t breathe.The yellow duck that was supposed to be the dividing line in the middle of the bed fell under the bed at some point.

    “Uh–” a low and unbearable voice sounded, word by word, “Neck, neck, it’s going to be broken!”

    Si Jiu immediately let go, and Ran Lie finally breathed a sigh of relief the next moment.

    “Woof woof woof? Woof woof woof!”

    ——”What’s wrong with you, Sijiu? What happened?” Ran Lie didn’t blame Sijiu for killing him for no reason at all. He was more concerned about the reason why Sijiu was like this.

    When Si Jiu suddenly hugged him, he actually didn’t make any resistance, and even ran into Si Jiu’s arms a little excitedly. Unexpectedly, the sleeping human being hit him head-on.

    “It’s okay, I had a nightmare.” Sijiu said softly and found that his pajamas were completely soaked with sweat.

    “What dream? Is it scary?” Ran Lie approached Si Jiu, lowered his head, and gently licked the back of his hand with his tongue.

    Si Jiu’s hands trembled slightly.

    He took a few deep breaths and then let them out slowly.

    “It’s nothing, just a messy dream, not worth mentioning.” Si Jiu shook his head – but what lingered in his mind was the strange yet familiar figure in the woods last night.
