Chapter 106 - TTFSO Chapter 106

The people sent by Song Xiao Bai to investigate the Star Pirates soon got the results. The Star Pirates had indeed set up an ambush, the location of which had already been fully grasped by Song Xiao Bai’s men.
Now that the ambush had been discovered, it was possible to use the ambush as a counter-attack to capture the pirates.
Song Xiao Bai immediately convened a meeting to plan a strategy.
Tang Wu Yuan sat in his seat with his legs folded, not saying a word the whole time, listening quietly, his right hand holding a pen and gently tapping the palm of his left hand, his head bowed as he pondered the Star Pirates’ behaviour.
According to the findings, it all seemed to be as he had expected, but it seemed to be somewhat different from what he had thought, and he could not tell where this strange feeling originated.
He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn’t even hear Song Xiao Bai call out to him twice. It was only when the Liaison Officer next to him gave him a nudge that he came back to his senses and looked up to find everyone looking at him.
When the Lieutenant saw his bewildered face, he smiled slightly and repeated in a friendly manner: “Commander, the Major General asks what you think about attacking the Star Pirates?”
Tang Wu Yuan looked at Song Xiao Bai, who frowned slightly, his eyes looking at him quietly and stoically, obviously very unhappy with his absent-minded behaviour during the meeting.
Tang Wu Yuan did not evade his gaze and after some thought said in a deep voice: “I object.”
Song Xiao Bai’s face sank as quickly as the eye could see, and his cronies all looked angry. Tang Wu Yuan had opposed the attack on the Star Pirates on the grounds that their behaviour was too abnormal, and he was worried that the Star Pirates were deceitful. Now that the trap set by the Star Pirates has been investigated, everything has been done according to Tang Wu Yuan’s words and Tang Wu Yuan still opposed it. Isn’t that going against the Major general, is it on purpose?
Zhu Qiang held back his anger and asked: “Commander, you must have a reason for opposing the attack on the Star Pirates right?”
Tang Wu Yuan shook his head, “No.”
“You……” Zhu Qiang was furious at his confidence and could not speak for a moment.
The atmosphere in the conference room was a bit delicate for a while, Tang Wu Yuan could already be said to be blatantly picking a fight like this, everyone looked at each other with different faces. Only the Lieutenant General was relaxed, seemingly oblivious to the delicate atmosphere between them, even lowering his head to take a sip of tea.
“Objection overruled, attack the Star Pirates as per the date just stated, meeting adjourned.”
Song Xiao Bai stood up and gave Tang Wu Yuan a deep look. Just as he finished his words, he already strode out, not giving Tang Wu Yuan a chance to object at all.
Tang Wu Yuan pursed his lips and finally did not say anything else. After all, he had no reasonable objection, if he had to name a reason to oppose, then he could only say it was his intuition.
At night, after taking a bath, Tang Wu Yuan laid down on his bed and made a phone call to Tang Bo Te. He still had doubts about the attack on the pirates, so he wanted to ask Tang Bo Te’s opinion, who had been in the military for many years and had a lot of experience. When he encountered difficulties, he occasionally asked Tang Bo Te for advice.
Tang Bo Te was on leave recently and the attack on the Star Pirates was a military secret, a covert operation, so he couldn’t reveal everything. He just asked Tang Bo Te tactfully what to do if there is no evidence for one thing, but his intuition feels that it is not feasible.
Tang Bo Te said that there are times when strategic deployment can rely on intuition, this intuition is not only a sixth sense but also the experience accumulated over a long period of time in combat. Although it has not analysed and reasoned, it is an instinctive judgment, so there are times when one must also trust one’s intuition.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Wu Yuan thought about it and felt that what his father had said made sense, so he decided to go to Song Xiao Bai to voice his opinion.
As soon as he opened the door and found Song Xiao Bai standing at the door wanting to knock, the two were stunned at the same time when they saw each other.
After Tang Wu Yuan reacted, he couldn’t help but let out a laugh. The number of times Song Xiao Bai came to his room these days was much more than before.
He made a gesture of invitation and said nonchalantly: “Come in, I happen to have something to tell you as well.”
Song Xiao Bai nodded and walked inside, taking a seat on the sofa.
“What do you want to drink?”
“Clear water.”
Tang Wu Yuan poured a glass of water and placed it on the table in front of him, then took out a bottle of yoghurt from the fridge, sat down on the sofa next to him, took a pillow and hugged it, inserted the straw into the bottle and took a small sip.
Song Xiao Bai frowned at him, “You’re a soldier.”
“Yes, I am a soldier.” Tang Wu Yuan bit a straw in his mouth, casually reclined on the back of the sofa and blinked at him.
Tang Wu Yuan’s eyes were big and bright, and when he looked at people from below, they were innocent and pure, like a clear spring water, as if they were trying to suck people into the water.
Song Xiao Bai left his gaze with a furrowed brow, glanced down at his sprawling posture and finally withdrew his gaze, out of sight, out of mind.
Tang Wu Yuan slightly hooked his lips, moved his buttocks, found a comfortable sitting position and asked: “Major General Song came to see me, what’s the matter?”
Song Xiao Bai pursed his lips and said in a deep voice: “I know you still have doubts about this siege of pirates, in fact I also feel that something is not right.”
Tang Wu Yuan sat up a little straighter, looked at him and asked: “Then why are you still rushing to attack?”
“I suspect that there is a spy in the Golden Eagle Army.”
Tang Wu Yuan was startled, the Golden Eagle Army was the most important force in the empire and had always handled the empire’s most pressing missions, if there is a spy in the force, then the matter was not trivial.
“Why do you think so?”
“Because I found out that the Star Pirates seem to know a lot about what’s going on in our troops, and the people I sent to see the locations of those trap ambushes are very similar to the usual pattern of our operations, so I suspect that the Star Pirates have set up these ambushes in advance because they know our strategy.”
After a brief pause, Tang Wu Yuan understood the connection, looked up at Song Xiao Bai and asked in a somewhat serious manner: “Your actions today were to deliberately test the spy?”
He analysed in a low voice, “If the Star Pirates really went to the trouble of bribing someone in the army, then it must not be just an ordinary junior soldier, that person must have some power and be able to attend internal meetings, so that they can be the first to know the news and then pass it on to the Star Pirates.”
“En.” Song Xiao Bai nodded, “The people who came to the meeting today are all insiders in the force, I suspect that the spy is among them. After the meeting, I have sent people to monitor them, as long as they make any unusual moves, they will be arrested.”
Tang Wu Yuan nodded and finally put his mind at ease, as long as Song Xiao Bai didn’t act recklessly, he had nothing to worry about, he bit into his straw and happily took a few more sips.
Song Xiao Bai listened to the slurping sound of water from the straw and frowned at him, clearly disapproving of his actions.
Tang Wu Yuan deliberately drank faster, taking a few more sips before stopping, “Why did you tell me about this, aren’t you afraid that I am the spy?”
“You?” Song Xiao Bai let out a laugh: “Is there crispy fried meat for you to eat on the pirate warship?”
Tang Wu Yuan glared at Song Xiao Bai, was he someone who stayed with the Golden Eagle Army because of a piece of crispy fried meat? He had obviously stayed because of his endless love for the Empire! He felt that his fiery red heart of patriotism had been insulted.
Having finished his business, Song Xiao Bai picked up his glass of water and took a sip, as he put the glass down, his nose suddenly twitched and he looked up in confusion, “What is that smell in your room?”
“……Smell? There is no smell ah……” Tang Wu Yuan guiltily glanced around the room, sniffing gently. Because his room usually does not have any visitors, so when he took a shower just now, he took the barrier sticker off, only after the shower did he re-paste it. But after so long, the smell in the room was already very faint, how could Song Xiao Bai have smelled it?
Song Xiao Bai frowned, still looking a little confused, his eyes skimming over the potted plants on Tang Wu Yuan’s windowsill and looking at the incense that Tang Wu Yuan had not lit, the smell should not have come from any of these places.
Tang Wu Yuan looked at his shifting eyes and put down the yoghurt, then laughed lightly and pretended to be calm and said: “Song Xiao Bai, there’s no one else here, just you and me, so you don’t have to pretend, it’s not like I don’t know that your nose can’t smell at all.”
Song Xiao Bai’s nose had never been able to smell anything since he was a child, he heard that it was because when he was first born, there was a pheromone riot in the hospital. The impact of the pheromones at that time was so strong that it affected his sense of smell, so from that time onwards, he could no longer smell.
This matter was something that Tang Wu Yuan had inadvertently learned from Teacher Bai in the past. After Song Xiao Bai joined the army, the matter of his lack of sense of smell was naturally kept secret. No one in the army knew about it except the highest ranking officer. After all, if this matter got out and the enemy knew about this weakness of his, it would be very dangerous.
The pheromone smell in the room now was extremely light and normal people could not smell it, so how could Song Xiao Bai smell it? Tang Wu Yuan only thought that he was talking nonsense, or perhaps he suspected his Beta identity, so he was deliberately testing it.
Song Xiao Bai frowned unconsciously when he heard Tang Wu Yuan’s words. He had never smelled anything like a normal person since he could remember, so he could not be sure if he had really smelled the same fragrance as last time.
Seeing that he still looked a little puzzled, Tang Wu Yuan could not help but suspect that his sense of smell had returned, and he could not help but blush.
Tang Wu Yuan stood up somewhat nervously, picked up the air freshener next to him and sprayed around the room, especially around Song Xiao Bai, he sprayed a few more times until the room was full of lily fragrance before stopping.
The room was so fragrant that he held his breath slightly, looked at Song Xiao Bai and asked: “This is what you smell right? I sprayed air freshener just before you came over.”
Song Xiao Bai’s nose moved a few times, sniffing hard, then shook his head a little in disappointment, “There’s no smell this time.”
Although he was used to not being able to smell, the aroma of that moment just now still made him unconsciously fascinated. If he could, he would like to smell it again. It turned out to be so wonderful being able to smell, it’s just that he didn’t know if all the smells in this world were so good, or if this was the only smell that was so fascinating to him.
When Tang Wu Yuan heard his words, he let out a slight sigh of relief, put down the freshener in his hand and said: “It seems your sense of smell hasn’t returned yet, what a pity.”
Although his mouth said regret, there was not the slightest hint of regret in his eyes or tone.
“I don’t see that you feel regret.” Song Xiao Bai looked up at him and said in a cold voice.
“Maybe it’s because you have bad eyes.” Tang Wu Yuan shrugged his shoulders, he had tried hard to express his regret for his nemesis, but this regret was so limited that he couldn’t fake it even if he wanted to.
Song Xiao Bai stood up with a cold snort, “I’m leaving.”
Tang Wu Yuan thought to himself, after talking about business, you should have left a long time ago, still staying behind and smelling what smell ah.
Tang Wu Yuan personally sent him out of the door. After Song Xiao Bai left, he quickly closed the door. When he returned to the room, he couldn’t help but sneeze, he had just sprayed too much air freshener in the room and the smell was too strong.
He hurriedly went to the window and opened it before he finally breathing some real fresh air. While looking out of the window, he unconsciously touched the barrier patch on the back of his neck which made him feel a little more at ease, he could never let Song Xiao Bai know about him being an Omega.
The fragrance of lilies in the room faded and he reacted in hindsight that Song Xiao Bai came over to find him, it was to explain to him?
