After 147 cycles, Enigma commander Lu Lin wagered half his life on the possibility of a tomorrow.
On the 148th, he finally found that troublesome Omega, Lin Xiaoman, amid the ruins on a rainy night.
Xiaoman thought he was just an ordinary horticulture student, until his pheromones started talking nonsense:
He could taste his enemies’ fear, and it was salty; smell his beloved’s longing, and it was strawberry cake; and turn an assassination scene into a therapy room.
Lu Lin shielded him behind his back. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
Xiaoman whipped out pheromone programming code. “Big brother, I think... I can hack into other people’s emotional systems?”
Later...
The Full-Sugar House milk tea shop became a hit across the stars. Its signature deal was “a cup of milk tea with a free report on your secret crush.”
Academics competed to give him awards for his “gentle science,” and the United Nations begged him to save the world from pheromone pollution.
On their twentieth wedding anniversary, Lu Lin received a ring engraved with “and in the next life,” along with a playful plea: “Next life, let me find you first, okay?”
