The Ger Is A Part Timer [BL]

~ 20 ~

Pretending not to notice, Yu Yan unnoticeably sped up his pace, making an obvious move of looking at the terminal on his wrist as if he was running late and had to recheck the time. However, his whole attention was directed to the footsteps behind him.

With his attention elsewhere, Yu Yan's spirit jolted as a man suddenly walked out from a backdoor up ahead. At the sight of Yu Yan, he called loudly, "You finally came!"

Yu Yan's eyes widen as he felt the presence of the person behind him to suddenly approached him as he in quick long strides.

"I almost thought you wouldn't make it—"

In a short tense moment, Yu Yan tried to protect the speaking man, partly dragging him behind him. A small gust of wind behind him caught his attention—

The stalker raised his hand! Was he going to strike down at him with a knife?! A bat?! Or was it a steel pipe—?!

Thomp!

Yu Yan blinked over the arm he tried to use as shield. His gaze inadvertently went down to the bright red sticker on the box that read—

"R–Received?" Yu Yan was stunned.

"And you", the man who called out to Yu Yan snapped out the awkward atmosphere as if deliberately ignoring Yu Yan's actions. He exclaimed at the person who stamped a palm-sized sticker to the box. "Where have you been?! I told you to track the package but the package ended up coming first before you did! Now we're ways later than the time due!"

"That's why I stamped the sticker already!" The other person tried to defend himself, which made the man angry and raising his fist to slap gently but loudly. With cupped hands, it only sounded like it hurt.

Now, Yu Yan was confused. Why did everyone seem to be acting like NPCs? Was he being filmed somewhere perhaps?

"You think that would solve it?! Ugh, we don't have time for this—and you", he turned to Yu Yan, who was looking left and right, trying to spot hidden cameras. The man pushed the distracted ger into a door from a smaller alleyway, "You're helping out the kitchen staff in unloading the produce from the packages while we apologize to the owning manager."

The man opened the package in Yu Yan's hands himself, revealing fresh vegetables and produce as they entered the kitchen back door, "Go here." He waved at a passing staff and pushed Yu Yan to him, "He's here to help—Go with him." He said the last part to Yu Yan.

Yu Yan, "I'm here to what?"

Before Yu Yan could get a reply, he was dragged away the staff. As he left, he could have heard the man mutter something about 'part timers always left' and 'never being serious with the schedule'.

Yu Yan was pushed all the way towards the front of the big walk-in freezer to sort and put away the vegetables.

"I'm sorry, but I'm a little busy. You can go in and put away the vegetables by their kind on the shelves and racks. I have to go", the kitchen staff said as he rounded back the corner he came from.

Yu Yan, "..." I keep getting into part time jobs I didn't sign up to recently.

A few thoughts ran through Yu Yan's mind but only a deep sigh escaped his lips. He tried tugging the handle and pulling the heavy metal freezer door wide open.

Where were the lights?

Slightly annoyed, Yu Yan walked in while using the lights from outside the freezer to see the insides. He wanted to get this over with. Spotting a shelf full of vegetables by the crate, Yu Yan quickly sorted the contents of the package in his arms.

Behind him, a smaller freezer for drinks quietly opened. If Yu Yan had inspected that freezer inside a freezer, he would have noticed a hole covered under the freezer handle by a fake screw. If he had given in to his curiosity, he would also have found out that when uncovered by a finger, the hot air coming from a steam pipe connected from the other side would pass through a small metal lining that acts like a miniature vent. The warm air rushing to the cold air would affect the temperature-susceptible metal door frame, causing them to slightly expand and the second door to open.

It was hard to notice because of the coldness inside the freezer.

Slowly, the freezer door was quietly closing, it's heaviness pulling it close due to gravity. Noticing that the light inside was getting dimmer, Yu Yan reflexively turned to look outside. Behind him, a hand appeared out of nowhere from the darkness and covered Yu Yan's mouth, pulling him backwards inside the drinks freezer as the hidden door and the freezer closed.

Meanwhile, just a few hours back in dorm room 4444; a tall man with a thick waist and a strong build had just entered the dorm he would be sharing with a few other people. Although the thought of sharing living spaces bothered him, he couldn't care enough to complain it. Besides, it was his choice in the end; much to the annoyance of his adjutant.

Strong arms hauled his luggage in from the door to the hallway. He ignored the uncomfortability he felt on his sides, unknowingly rubbing it with a free hand as he closed the main door.

He glanced at the open doors of the free rooms and easily chose one of the empty rooms near the doorway. There were three rooms to the left and two to the right including the kitchen. It seemed that the farthest room on left and nearest room to the right, just beside the main door, were both taken.

Oh, the middle room on the left also seemed taken, as the door was closed. There was a piece of paper taped to the door but Gazef was a little far off to have read the small neat letters.

He couldn't be bothered to come nearer and simply chose the first room to the left and entered. He tossed his belongings inside and scanned the room of electronics and hidden surveillances. Just to be safe, he pulled out a jammer and stuck it on the underside a drawer. All unregistered devices would unnoticeably malfunction within its radius.

With security aside, it didn't take long for Gazef to unpack. He didn't have much to begin with. It was always his adjutant that would carry the equivalent of his house whenever he traveled.

Bored, he exited his room to inspect the living room and the kitchen, respectively. There were no guarantees that these places were surveillance-free. He had only passed by the middle room next door, when he unexpectedly froze mid-step.

P–Pheromones?

It was extremely faint, and yet it was there. It was definitely there.

No, why would there be pheromones in the academy? Omegas were nearly extinct and the few that were alive were all heavily protected and regulated back in White Star capital.

Was there another omega hiding in the academy? If not, then, it would mean...?

Preoccupied by the room's owner, Gazef yet again forgot to read note plastered on the door. He twisted the knob and entered, taking a slow deep breath in. With half-lidded eyes, Gazef felt intoxicated.

Half-open suitcases and half-unpacked clothes and random belongings laid on the bed. The clean and sweet-smelling folded clothes softly were calling to him. To one side was a stack of undergarments. His throat knot bobbed. His heart extraordinarily beating fast. He could not avert his eyes elsewhere.

"Little Lion, do you not know how to read?"

The hard muzzle of a gun was swiftly pressed on his lumbar. Even so, all Gazef could think about was the sweet scent emanating from the person that snuck behind him, who knows when.
