“Let’s go, Morris! We need to go before the police come in!” The black-haired boy said as he walked toward Morris, holding a pile of thick books. The pile was so high that it almost hid all of his face.

“Uhh, okay… But, aren’t you taking a bit too much?”

Facing Morris’ disapproval, Zhou Yu couldn’t help but blush in embarrassment. His originally bright eyes dimmed, “But I’m afraid I will miss any information that might help you—— Hey? Morris?”

Morris was much stronger and taller than Zhou Yu. Morris then took the books from Zhou Yu as he (M) stroked his (ZY) black hair again.

“It’s too heavy. I’ll carry them for you. If you get hurt, I’ll feel sad…” Morris’s blue eyes were full of concern, looking gently at Zhou Yu. This was a great contrast to the Morris in the dreamscape, the one who was full of killing intent.

Zhou Yu’s heart jumped when he heard Morris said such ambiguous words.

The feelings that had been buried before began to roll again, making his rosy complexion pale.

Morris was a very straightforward and carefree person. In the past, Morris also used to say things that made Zhou Yu blush. All of this was normal for Morris, who only had a pure friendship feeling toward him, but Zhou Yu just couldn’t get it out of his mind.

This kind of thinking shouldn’t have existed, it’s just tarnishing their friendship.

Seeing that his best friend’s face was not right, Morris immediately became worried and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you okay——”

“I’m okay! Let’s go. They’re about to come in!” Zhou Yu interrupted Morris’ words and took the lead to walk upstairs.

Zhou Yu sometimes wondered whether Morris, who always said those ambiguous words, also liked him a little.

However, their quarrel two weeks ago made him recognize this ugly reality. He knew that Morris didn’t like him and would never like him.

Because the sole reason they quarrel was Annie.

And, that happened after Annie confessed to Morris.

Morris told him that he (M) had rejected Annie, but in private, Annie told Zhou Yu that they were already dating.

So, she wanted him, this annoying light bulb[1], to go away.

Of course, Zhou Yu didn’t believe her words.

Yet afterwards, he accidentally saw Annie and Morris had a tryst. Watching this match made in heaven truly made him understand the taste of pain and sadness.

So later, in order to maintain his friendship, Zhou Yu pretended to be okay. He also didn’t have the courage to ask Morris the truth —— maybe his mind hadn’t been okay before. At that time, he was even tempted to commit suicide.

Alas, with such instability, this friendship had a lot of problems.

Zhou Yu didn’t remember when, but Morris started to become unreasonable and argued with him, believing that he had an affair with Annie.

Zhou Yu was so angry. He even said that he didn’t want to be friends with Morris, whom he loved so much, anymore.

But after that, Morris suddenly left and disappeared. Leaving him behind with that wrong address.

This is also the beginning of all Morris’ suffering—— If only he hadn’t quarreled with Morris, maybe everything would still be fine. Or, maybe Morris wouldn’t get tortured like this.

Zhou Yu peeked at Morris, his emerald-green eyes began to pour out crystal-like tears again.

Now it was all right too. It’s actually not that bad to be a best friend, at least he wouldn’t have to face Morris’ aversion.

Morris, who was also watching him, looked at his best friend who suddenly became depressed. He felt like a knife was cutting his heart, but he didn’t know how to comfort him. All he could do was hold the books obediently and follow Zhou Yu out.

While both of them were walking to the first floor, Zhou Yu suddenly stopped and turned to Morris and said, “Morris, you go home first and wait for me.”

How could Morris rest assured if Zhou Yu needed to face these policemen alone, so he immediately opposed, “No——”

Zhou Yu sighed helplessly and said, “Morris, someone has to explain the situation, hasn’t it? Nothing will happen, okay? I’m not that weak!”

Looking at Zhou Yu’s determined face, Morris, who knew Zhou Yu’s temper, hesitated a little before nodding, “Okay, I’ll wait for you at home.”

As his words fell, Morris’ figure gradually disappeared.

Kacha——

A moment later, the police car siren stopped ringing in front of the villa’s main entrance, and the door was opened.

The black-haired, green-eyed boy turned around and looked at the policemen who broke in.

“Hello.”

A nervous smile appeared on the innocent-looking, pale-faced boy.

The author has something to say: 

Oh my god! I’m convinced[2], I’ve overestimated myself! I really wanted Morris to confess to Zhou Yu, but he didn’t listen to it in the end! Morris just can’t confess… He’s too shy!! My feeling has been played until it collapses!

Adding some foreshadowing, maybe he’ll confess in two chapters? (Maybe) It’s over… Sorry, little angel QAQ I’ve decided! Tomorrow will be a double release! It’s still the usual nine o’clock update! Two more chapters! 

(Whisper: If I can’t finish it… Good little angels, please forgive me~)

Spiritual world’s consciousness: (gloating smile) Hehe, Dad why do you drink vinegar all the time, chasing your wife until dead ah?

Zhou Yu: (rejecting Morris’ confession) Stop joking, you are a straight man!

Morris: (Erkang hand[6]) Nooo!!! I’m really bent! I’m as crooked as a mosquito coil!

Future world’s consciousness: (Conan-style sharp eyes) Wait a minute! This isn’t right! Isn’t this a child’s conspiracy? —— Never confess, never end! Report this guy for cheating! He maliciously increases his playtime!

Morris: (gently smile) What did you say? I don’t understand.

[2] : “我佛了”, this is a Chinese internet buzzword or slang, which homophonic with “我服了”, which means as an expression of convinced at oneself.

[3] : “我喜……喜……”, in Chinese, the word ‘like’ is ‘喜欢’. So, Morris simply stammered in saying “I like you”.

[4] : “喜……我来洗碗吧”, so, ‘喜’, this character is a component of the word ‘like’ in Chinese, it’s said as xi. Then, because of shyness, Morris changed his wordings into ‘洗’, which means washing, it’s also said as xi.

[5] : “吃醋很爽,一时吃醋一时爽,一直吃醋一直爽!”, this sound rhythmic in Chinese, so I tried my best. “吃醋”, translated as drinking vinegar, which means jealous.
