【Hammer Base】Until the Abyss

In the back kitchen of the cafeteria in Tonga Prison, the meat steaks on the grill made a sizzling sound, and the blades and chopping boards made a dull sound. All the noise formed an excellent cover, allowing Thor and Loki to hide in the back kitchen storage room and "work" with peace of mind. ".

"That's it?" Thor held on to the shelf.

Loki held up the bright flashlight to confirm again: "Well, just to be on the safe side, you can push another 20cm to the left, which can effectively avoid the shear wall."

"it is good."

A few days have passed since the incident in the confinement room, and the two put their escape plan back on the agenda.

Neither of them had a tacit understanding to mention the details of that day, or in other words, it was Loki who unilaterally refused to recall the situation that was too embarrassing.

For safety reasons, the new prison cell in Tonga Prison was built with a "shear wall" structure. Many walls are made of reinforced concrete, which is difficult to excavate with manpower alone. It only works if you start face to face.

Without accurate measuring tools, the two can only work manually.First use translucent wax paper to enlarge the map in equal proportions, and then cover the paper on Nichol's police flashlight for field exploration.Fortunately, translucent wax paper is a common material in the kitchen and is very easy to get.

Thor didn't intend to let Loki do it for the next digging. He dragged two bags of potatoes to make a simple stool, and motioned for Loki to rest.

The agent raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Don't be brave until the injury is healed." Thor held his good arm.

Loki still has a bandage on his left shoulder, although it seems to him more like a prop to confuse the prison guards and other prisoners-he can get out of bed smoothly, so the Alpha with the brain on the sperm and the beautiful "Beta" with the injured arm Hiding in the kitchen storage room, the first thing that comes to mind must be cheating, not digging a hole to escape from prison.

Thor doesn't have to take care of him like that.

The agent's lips moved, but in the end he didn't reject the other party's kindness.

After the incident in the brig, Thor treated him better.He took him back to cell 127, did not expose Loki's so-called "he forced him" lie, and even clumsiness could not prevent Thor from taking care of his daily life.

Sometimes the agents even thought badly that deliberately turning this golden-haired idiot around was a kind of revenge against the Odin family.However, from the eyes of Alpha, Loki has never found any "redemption" factor. Thor did not regard him as a historical problem left by his father's generation, but like... a real boyfriend.

This realization made the agent feel awkward and restless.

He didn't know what to do.

He deserved to avoid his.After knowing Thor's real surname, not being in the same room, not directly rushing up to stab Thor Odinson is Loki's biggest tolerance.

But he didn't expect that this Alpha would come to the confinement room to rescue him, and even respect and take care of him afterwards.Everything this man does seems to say: I'm just Thor, don't judge me by family labels.And, Loki, you're fine.

The agent didn't dare to think too deeply about the meaning behind that, the conclusions alone confused him, his life seemed to be a goddamn mess because of Thor Odinson.

But... when did he start thinking about "life" again?

Loki Laufeyson shouldn't care about these things. As a person with no future, the only thing he can call a "prayer" is that he can die more happily and don't become a prisoner of the enemy.Even when he rolled into bed with Thor in the first place, he just wanted to experience the pleasure of sex.

But this man seemed to put back in front of him everything he had given up a long time ago.

A feeling, a respect, and perhaps a choice about the future.

Loki can't help but think of their kiss.

For the continuation of the jailbreak plan, acting is essential. Alpha never touched him lightly as promised, but he always seized the opportunity to cover up and prolong the tight kisses.He'll take the opportunity to wrap his arms around his waist and push his lips away with the tip of his tongue until Loki smells heady of rum with every breath he takes.

The number of temporary markings is also increasing.

The encounter in the confinement room caused Loki a lot of sequelae, and he couldn't use any inhibitors for a short time. Thor talks to him about it after he wakes up, and Loki acquiesces.So every three days Alpha would hold him in his arms and pierce that small piece of the most sensitive skin with his canine teeth.

That tingling that spreads from the spine to the heart...

The strands made Loki want to shrink back into his "shell".

A knock on the door interrupted the agent's thoughts, it was Dr. Walker calling the police. Loki quickly withdrew his gaze glued to Thor's back, and together with Alpha, he blocked the wall with white plasterboard, and then worked together to drag the shelf back into place.

Thor kept his coat tied around his waist while working, sweat half seeping through his racerback vest, but it was obviously too much for the workload in the kitchen, Loki hurried over to help him pull the coat, and helped Alpha Smooth collar.

"Hunter, you are really lazy here!"

This is what the prison guards saw when they entered.

He doesn't say much, though, Thor's giving him enough of a favor that he won't be fussy about such details.The prison guard's gaze wandered around Loki jokingly, then turned to Thor and said——

"Let's go Hunter, go out with me, you have a visit. Yanfu is really not shallow, the one who came to see you is a beautiful girl!"

**

Thor frowned at this sudden turn of events.

With prison guards blocking the door, he couldn't explain to Loki that he didn't know any "big beautiful girls".However, this conclusion was quickly dispelled when he stood at the door of the visiting room.

The upper part of the door is two large pieces of transparent glass, so that the family members can see the corridor of the prison through the glass first, looking forward to it.Similarly, prisoners can also see their relatives waiting in the visiting room through the glass in advance.There are still many people in the visiting room, with mottled walls and a blue-green round table, it looks like some kind of old coffee shop at the end of the last century—if there are no handcuffs and shackles that prisoners are shackled to the table.

And in the distance, Thor saw a familiar graceful figure through the glass.

"Sif..."

Thor was still in a state of shock when he was brought to Sif by the prison guards, but Sif stood up first and gave him a hug.

"Thor."

"Why are you here?" Thor asked, sitting down after a short hug.

"Fandral begged me to do something, I always have the right to find out the whole thing? Given the last time we met was at the final ball?"

Bad prom, Thor always knew that Sif liked him, but he didn't mean it that way, so facing the girl's courageous confession at the final prom, he chose to avoid it for a short time after declining it politely.Of course, the changes in the Odin family also made him no longer have the energy to pay attention to this matter, and he didn't even say goodbye when he came to the Tonga prison with all his eggs in one basket.

And he really shouldn't expect any of Fandral, Volstagg or Hogun to be good at money.

In order to rescue Loki before, he made an urgent call to Fandral, asking him to withdraw the huge fee silently while bypassing the family elders, and now he knows how Fandral did it.

"It's been dealt with, as you can see, I'm safe."

Sif's beautiful brows furrowed instantly, and her fingers pressed hard on the briefcase on her lap.

"I don't think Loki Laufeyson is a good investment, Thor."

Before Thor wanted to say something, she took out a document from her briefcase. The document was encrypted using the Odin family's unique encryption method, and Thor had no trouble reading it.

"This is the information collected by Fandral later, and I will bring it here today." The capable girl took a deep breath, "Whether you want to accept it or not, what is written on it is the truth."

Thor read it silently, and closed the page: "Sif, I will always trust you guys."

These words made the stronger beauty look a little better: "Then don't you have anything to say?"

"But I don't think Loki is who you think he is."

If it was said that Thor's trust just now made her feel a little dizzy, this sentence undoubtedly threw her from heaven back to hell.

"You clearly saw what was written on the paper!" She tried her best to restrain her voice, "Your original plan was that you would buy the driver, prepare the speedboat, and then the family would pick you up on the high seas. But now the JNSA people are there first Yeah, they replaced all the shift drivers on that food truck."

"Loki was in the infirmary."

"He hasn't communicated with the outside world? Hasn't he informed his organization of your action plan? Or do you have no idea how Loki Laufeyson exchanges information with JNSA?"

He doesn't know, but Loki also doesn't know how he runs the Odin family.

Seeing Thor's silence, Sif clenched his fists: "I thought the rejection of my confession was because you had better choices and a more sensible object."

"Sif, I don't confuse work with love."

"You're just mixing things up, Thor. What did he give you in return for the hard work you took him out of the guardhouse? When he accused you of being the son of his father's enemy, he probably knew who was the real one." murderer." She panted, her brows raised in heroic spirit, "Loki Laufeyson is a liar that even he dare not face."

The coercion around Alpha rose instantly: "Don't say that about him, Sif."

As a woman born in a gangster family, her pride never allowed her to cry easily, but Thor Odinson may be her weakness.The brown-haired girl blinked hard: "Thor, there's no way he didn't know that the Jotunheim authorities were another murderer of his father."

"...I'll talk to him."

Sif hangs his head.

"Hey," Thor gently covered the back of her hand, "I have a clear head and know what I'm doing. Maybe Loki has a lot of flaws, maybe there are not uncommon qualities of pride, bravery, and kindness, but he is a A guy who is willing to break through and improve himself for his loved ones. I mean...he is far gentler than he looks, and I am willing to believe him."

"Are you in prison, are you discussing with me the trust value that an agent deserves from you?" She emphasized the words "prison" and "agent".

Thor is suddenly speechless, indeed, if the position is reversed, he will probably think that Sif is crazy, but he is sure that his judgment is correct.

Sif didn't say anything else, she stood opposite Thor with her briefcase, her body stretched like a Valkyrie: "Then I hope my future leader won't regret it."

"Ah."

"Does the driver need us to dispose of it?"

"No, don't startle the enemy. If there is a need for the driver, I will take care of it myself."

"At a time like this, you still..." Sif suddenly paused at this point, and her gaze looked towards the door as if there was nothing there.

Thor wondered, "What's wrong?"

Sif suddenly grabbed the back of his neck and kissed Thor's lips hard.

"Don't push me away," her voice choked up, "just treat it as a gentleman's farewell kiss."

Thor froze for a moment, but didn't move in the end.

**

Thor walked back in silence.

He's not worried about Sif, his good girl will keep her promise and won't be troubled by her past relationship for a long time.What he is worried about is the information that Fandral entrusts Sif to bring.

It is expected that JNSA replaced the driver. After all, it is unreasonable for the JNSA to have all the initiative on the way to escape.

But about the fact that the authorities in Jotunheim were also among those involved in Laufey's murder...

He had to talk to Loki.

They avoided talking about the brig long enough, because it involved a hidden past and a seemingly unreal future.He originally wanted to respect Loki's choice. After all, it was impossible for Loki to accept the Odin family, but now it seems that JNSA is definitely not a good place.

Today Loki is exceptionally silent.

In order to cover up their secondary sexual characteristics, they tried to stay together since they came out of the confinement room. Loki was indeed at a loss for the first few days, but he had never been silent for so long.

Until the lights go out, Thor finds the right moment.

"What are your plans after going out?" Alpha asked while lying on the upper bunk.

There was a soft turning sound from the lower berth.

"I thought we weren't going to get into that."

"JNSA replaced the drivers of all food trucks." Alpha paused, and finally decided to cut to the chase.

Thor would never want to be so abrupt if he could, he wants to give Loki more time to accept himself, but the reality is far more serious than he imagined.

"...What did you say?" The skinny agent immediately sat up from the lower bunk.

"It was an accidental discovery. We originally agreed that my people would arrange the escape in West Timor, but when my subordinates started to do it, they found that the food transportation station had been preemptively controlled by JNSA. Considering that it might be your organization, so I was wondering if you might be in trouble."

"You don't doubt me?"

"No, I haven't considered this possibility. If you want to leave me alone and take Dr. Walker away, there are many ways, not to mention that according to our agreement, the person is ultimately yours." Thor said frankly.

Loki's heart clenched.

"What I'm really worried about is another thing," Thor considers, deciding to come clean. "Did you know... Laufey's death was actually the result of a joint discussion between my father and the Jotunheim authorities?"

"..."

If the topic just now was an "exceeding authority" behavior that Loki had to tolerate, then this sentence is no less important to him than dropping a nuclear bomb in his head.He suddenly froze on the bed, his limbs were cold.

In the darkness, only the dripping of the pipes and Thor's slightly nervous breathing can be heard.

It took a long time before Loki squeezed out the second sentence of the night from his throat: "...What did you say?!"

Thor also sat up from the bed, and he was silent for a moment: "I mean, after you told me about that, I asked someone to verify it, but then I found out that Laufey's death was actually caused by my father and the Jotunheim authorities. ..."

"No!" Loki cut him off.

The agent's chest rose and fell violently.

"Impossible, impossible..."

"Loki, I know this is hard to take."

"Then tell me! Tell me everything you know!!"

The agent stood beside the bed at some point, his thin body arched in a distressing arc, and the emerald eyes shone with a halo of water vapor in the darkness.

Thor couldn't bear it, but he had to tell the truth: "I only found out about this when I visited today. Back then, my father developed a new type of weapon, which was still in the experimental stage and was very unstable. The Jotunheim authorities wanted to Buy it at a very low price. Laufey found out about this and tried to stop it, but he didn't know it was an agreement between the government and the Asgardian arms dealer, and he simply pointed the finger at my father."

"And then?" the agent asked tremblingly.

"He naturally became the biggest obstacle, and the authorities in Jotunheim decided to remove him. But the public officials were not good at it, so my father found Sam Thompson. They worked together. First, the government authorities slandered your father. It was corruption and malfeasance, with Odin appointing a killer to make his death look... like a suicide."

Loki stood in the darkness, stepping barefoot on the cold concrete floor in early autumn, but felt that his body was colder than the ground.

He now knew why no one attended Laufey's funeral; he also knew why the death of a senior police inspector was so easily dismissed as a suicide.

Everything was premeditated.

"Loki..." Thor wanted to comfort him, but before reaching out to touch him, he heard the agent's hoarse voice growl.

"So what am I? Their new target? The black cop's son should have died with Sam Thompson, why did he recruit me into JNSA?"

"They probably don't think you can find out the truth." Thor sighs.

The agent's Adam's apple rolled, and he seemed to understand something in a flash. He took a breath and stepped back quickly.

"Loki?"

He falls on deaf ears to Thor's call because he suddenly figured out all the joints: the JNSA sent him on a mission in a Tongan prison and never intended him to return alive in the first place.

——The authorities and the JNSA are two independent departments. The JNSA should not have known the inside story of the Laufey incident when it was searching for juvenile offenders.It's just that there is no impenetrable wall in the world. With the in-depth investigation of Odin, JNSA is bound to find clues.

This is why the organization's attitude towards itself is becoming more and more unclear, and why when he detected Thanos' anomalies through Odin, JNSA immediately sent him to "independently perform" transnational missions: Knowing too much himself has become a Abandoned son.The goal of the organization is Dr. Walker, and it doesn't matter who did it when someone got it.

They didn't give him backup, sending an Omega deep into a prison full of Alphas and tough Betas.Perhaps after completing the task, clearing him in the food truck, or shooting him on the edge of the cliff near the sea, is the complete plan.

An agent who knows no borders will die quietly wherever he dies.

He is a lonely ghost without nationality, but he has worked for many years for the accomplice who killed his father...

Loki backed away until his back touched the hard, cold wall.

Thor jumped out of bed in a hurry.

Loki looks at the man in front of him.He's fine, he means, Thor Odinson is fine.He had to admit that his heart had been shaken, but he suddenly realized that he didn't know the man in front of him at all.

For what purpose did he tell himself the truth?What was life like for this man outside prison?

Leaving this closed fortress, Thor Odinson has a life he doesn't have, school, career, family and future.And does he really know Thor?Thor who was like the leader of a lion group when we first met, Thor who relied on him like a big boy when he was frustrated, Thor who was like a patron in the confinement room, and Thor who kissed that beautiful lady in the visiting room...

Yes, he saw it.

I can see very clearly.

So it is entirely possible that after Thor found out that he had contacted JNSA, in order to prevent the organization from getting too close to him, he deliberately chose this time to tell himself the truth.

He is willing to believe him, willing to believe that the purpose of telling himself these things is just to hope that he will not be deceived any more, and that he will not die under the guns of his own people without knowing anything one day.

But he doesn't know him.

He knew nothing about him except everything in prison.Today, the "subordinate" that Thor said to deliver the information, that beautiful brown-haired lady who hugged and kissed him, is he really a subordinate, or is it his girlfriend?Or the fiancee of the family?

Loki suddenly felt ridiculous.

To escape Thor's sudden affection, he tries to hide in the JNSA handout shell.

And in order to get rid of the shackles of the organization, he yearned for Thor Odinson.

But in fact, he has nothing.

**

A broken "Guard! Help!" sounded at this moment, and it was particularly stern in the entire dark prison.

The cry broke the standoff between Loki and Thor, and the two looked out of the prison in unison.

The prison guards heard the sound and turned on a few lights on the first floor.

"Guard, it's Hancock Walker, he fell down suddenly!" a prisoner shouted.

Hearing the words, the prison guard quickly asked his colleagues to push the stretcher cart, and under the dim light, a short and fat figure familiar to Thor and Loki was quickly put on the stretcher and pushed towards the gate of the prison area. The voice speaking on the walkie-talkie: "A prisoner in District A has a sudden illness and has been sent to the infirmary, Copy."

Thor and Loki look at each other.

Loki immediately opened the drawer of the only table in the cell and pulled out a letter.

"you……"

"I've got to check it out," the agent said quickly. "I've got to go to the infirmary right now."

"how to get to?"

"Use this," he explained as he opened the envelope, "it was the JNSA I contacted earlier, and I had to report the action plan, but I didn't expect them to replace the driver in the food truck, because I told them I was more Take someone, you have a lot of resources in West Timor, they asked me to clear you afterwards, but I don't think I can stop you as long as you go to the open sea."

"Loki, you don't have to explain, I've never…"

Loki ignored him, his left hand was still bandaged, he could only bite out the letter with his mouth, and then tore it open.

Seeing his strange behavior, Thor had to ask, "What is this?"

"Poison. Not lethal, but will make sure I can vomit into the infirmary. Someone needs to open the door from the infirmary to Block B from the infirmary the day we escaped. It was meant for that time."

"Loki!" Thor's voice was accentuated, every explanation from Omega was like a knife cutting in his heart, and he clearly never doubted him.

"Thor." Loki raised his head suddenly, looking seriously into Alpha's blue eyes in the darkness, "I... am going to get the letter today."

After saying this, he forcefully stuffed the crumpled paper ball into his mouth.

Thor didn't react for a moment, all his attention was on the agent, and he watched nervously as he swallowed the ball of paper.The effect of the medicine was very fast, within a few minutes, Loki groaned and slumped down, layers of cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

But Thor couldn't call the guards too quickly, too close to Dr. Walker would raise suspicions.

The agent has been suffering so much that he almost grabbed Thor's arm and restrained himself so as not to groan.

Thor pats him on the back until half an hour later Loki slams him away and leans on the toilet to vomit violently.He vomited violently, his breathing trembled intermittently, and he covered his lower abdomen and tried his best to suppress the painful moans.

Alpha clenched his fists and endured it for a while before standing up and shouting loudly to the prison guards.

When the prison guard's bright flashlight swept over Cell 127, Thor subconsciously raised his arm to cover his eyes.The prison guard was so displeased with two emergency patients in one night, he almost grabbed the bandage on Loki's arm and roughly pulled him out.

Loki's body has not fully recovered, and he was shoved and staggered.

Thor tried his best to control his blocking hand, and he knew that someone had to go to the infirmary to check the situation.

The scene was similar to more than ten days ago, but he could only pray that it would not be as dangerous as before in the confinement room.And in a panic, he suddenly wanted to understand why Loki told him that he took the letter today——

The communication room is at the end of the corridor of the visiting room. To get the letter, you must pass the door of the visiting room.

Loki saw it all, that kiss with Sif.

A little gossip after the text:

In my opinion, the protagonist of the article must grow up, and growth is always step by step.

In "Into the Abyss", Loki fears many things, life, the future, interpersonal communication, and even himself.Because of the old causes of escaping and the past, he has been immersed in boundless fear. At this time, he can numb himself and integrate with them, but when even a ray of sunlight shines into the bottom of his heart, he will be surprised. The embarrassment and nothingness.

He will want to touch the sun, and he will feel that the darkness follows him.So he has to overcome his past self.

So I made the current treatment of the article.

JNSA is like a rotten "comfort zone". He knows it's dirty and crumbling, but he can't live without it. After all, it's the only place he can stay.But when he suddenly discovered that the so-called "shell" no longer exists, and may even be an "enemy", he will understand that he must break free by himself.

I think that in addition to meeting a suitable partner, people's own efforts are also essential to achieve happiness.Looking forward to Loki's growth~
