After living an unremarkable life for over ten years, one night, Ji Minghuan suddenly awakened a superpower that allowed him to "create game characters in the real world." Moreover, each ch...
Chapter 309 Su Zimai's Confession (asking for monthly ticket)
"Wait..." Su Zimai looked at Hei Pupa who was about to take off his mask and suddenly called him.
"Uh... now what are you going to do?"
Hei Pu's right hand, which he had just raised, was still resting on the top of the mask. He raised his head and looked at Su Zimai helplessly through his eye sockets.
"I'll pick it myself." Su Zimai stared at him and said softly, "Otherwise I don't know what you're going to do." As she said that, she suddenly stood up from her chair.
"Haha... then do I have to put it on again so that you can feel more ceremonial?"
Hei Pupa shrugged his shoulders, and his tone was as if he was playing with a three-year-old child.
"It's up to you." Su Zimai said in a low voice.
"Okay. As expected of our diaper devil, you're still so arrogant. The whole world revolves around you."
Hei Pupa shook his head with emotion, then put on the mask again and pressed the fixing button on the side of his ear, and the mask fit his cheek at once.
He closed his eyes and hooked his hand at her with the restraints, indicating that she could come over.
The light and shadows in the carriage were swaying, making the figures sway as well.
It was like a drunken dream.
In the flickering light, Su Zimai walked closer to Hei Pupa in alternating light and darkness, and then gently sat down beside him.
She lowered her eyes and was silent for a while. Then she slowly turned her head and stared at the black pupa's profile curiously.
At this moment, Hei Pupa was like an old monk in meditation, with his eyes closed, waiting for her to make a move. The light was dark orange, reflecting on the cold mask.
The lights in the car suddenly went out. The faint blue light of the turbulent flow of time and space poured in through the car window and shone on the faces of the two people.
In the dim light, Su Zimai looked at his profile quietly and seriously, like a vigilant cat.
After a long time, she slowly reached out her hand, stroked the metal mask, and then moved it to the side of her ear. She raised her head, took a deep breath, and pressed the button.
With a "click", the mask slowly loosened.
Su Zimai grabbed the piece of the mask that was about to slip off, hesitated for a moment, and slowly took it off.
The dark red metal object separated from the black pupa's face and no longer served as an obstruction. What came into view was a handsome face of a young man with dark circles under his eyes, no expression on his face, and pale lips.
She stared at the face without blinking. It was clearly a very familiar face, but she looked at it as if it were a stranger.
After a moment, she carefully placed the mask on the seat beside her. Then she raised her hand and touched Gu Wenyu's cheek, gently stroking every inch of his skin, the corners of his eyes, the bridge of his nose, his cheeks, his lips... It was like a person who could not see the light, relying on touch to determine the other person's appearance.
The carriage was completely silent.
She touched so carefully and quietly, as if she wanted to feel every inch of skin on his face.
Gu Wenyu remained silent, letting her hand stroke his face, across his nose and eye sockets. He felt a little itchy and couldn't help sniffing.
"I say... are you satisfied?" At this time, he couldn't help but speak. After taking off the mask, even his voice changed, immature, yet calm.
"Don't move." Su Zimai said softly, "Don't move, don't move, don't move... otherwise I will hate you forever."
"Yes, Commander Wheat."
Su Zimai wrinkled his nose, pinched his cheeks gently, and pulled the corners of his mouth hard, as if to make sure whether the face in front of him was a fake one.
After a moment, she suddenly lowered her head and finally took her hands away from his face.
But Gu Wenyu still cooperated with her very patiently, just like when they were children and played "one, two, three, statue" on the grass in the courtyard. The girl stood under the tree and shouted "three, two, one" and turned around. The boy on the grass did not move. When the girl removed her hands that were covering her eyes and secretly stared at him through her fingers, the boy still did not move, but had a sly smile on his face.
The car was swaying and swaying with the lights and shadows rippling. Gu Wenyu's mind was full of thoughts, but he was distracted by a gentle voice.
"What I'm going to say next is not for you." Su Zimai said in a low voice.
"If you don't understand, just ask. Who are you going to tell it to?"
"Black pupa."
"Uh... sister, why does your head feel pointy to me?"
"Shut up, brother, you are not allowed to talk."
"Okay, okay, go ahead." Gu Wenyu sighed, "Comrade Hei Pupa is listening. I have already taped Gu Wenyu's mouth shut. Your brother is now a complete mute and can't make a sound."
"real?"
"Really, Miss Su Zimai, I've already hung that idiot Gu Wenyu from the ceiling of the library! Oh, if your good brother dares to move, I'll whip him hard with the restraints and kick his ass hard."
Gu Wenyu leaned back in his chair and responded perfunctorily in his translator's tone.
To be honest, he felt like he was getting goosebumps all over his body, and he didn't know what was wrong with this girl all of a sudden.
But she had always had a bad temper since she was little. If she wasn't coaxed, she would definitely get angry. Besides, he had kept it a secret from her for so long, so it was considered gentle of her not to beat him up.
"I'm going to start talking about that big moth." Su Zimai said in a low voice.
"you say."
Su Zimai lowered his eyes, then raised them again, took a deep breath, and looked straight at his face.
"The big fluttering moth."
"Uh-huh."
"Stinky moth."
"Hmmmm."
"Rotten moth."
"Hmmmm."
"Actually, I quite like you."
Gu Wenyu was stunned.
He was stunned for a long time, his thoughts were suddenly confused, and after a while he asked:
"Why?"
"I used to think... you were like my brother, you were talkative and mean, but you cared about me secretly, so I developed a crush on you without realizing it." She said softly, "My favorite person when I was a child was my brother. The team leader told me that when people grow up, they will like someone who is similar to the person they liked at the beginning, so I think I like people who are very similar to my brother."
Gu Wenyu stared at her blankly, and was completely silent. After a moment, he came to his senses and looked away from her face.
"Do you mind if I put on the mask and the voice changer?" he asked.
"don't want."
"Okay, wait for me a moment..."
In the dark carriage, Gu Wenyu looked up at the ceiling in a daze for a while, and then quickly put himself into the role, just like when he was a child, playing house with her at home, always remembering that he was now Hei Pupa, not Gu Wenyu.
So he coughed twice, and tried his best to use his usual funny tone and said in a muffled voice:
"And then? What do you want to express, Miss Su Zimai?"
"Guess what kind of like I'm talking about?"
Gu Wenyu took a deep breath, his eyes twitching slightly, "Please, sister... Although Comrade Hei Pupa's character is an awakened woman, this is not a reason for you to like him. I support all sexual orientations, and I support you being a lesbian, but transgender love is still a bit too..."
"Don't speak in your own tone! I'm not saying this to you, so don't comment!" Su Zimai interrupted him, lowered his little face, and stared into his eyes fiercely.
"Are you trying to force me into split personality?" Gu Wenyu shrugged. "I don't want to be like you, with my left brain attacking my right brain."
Su Zimai stared at him, his eyes almost red with anger. Although they were already red.
"I know, I know." Gu Wenyu lowered his head and sighed.
"Then I'll continue."
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, I'm listening, Miss Su Zimai."
"You saved me at the auction that day. I was so scared that I couldn't move my legs, and you carried me away from there. It was raining heavily in Tokyo, and it was so cold that I felt like I was almost frozen. So when you held me, I felt so warm..."
Gu Wenyu remained silent. The flickering lights were a little dazzling, so he simply closed his eyes.
"In fact, I really hated you at first, but the more I get to know you, I find you're actually quite interesting."
"oh oh."
"You were always careless, but you were very reliable at the critical moment. Although you always laughed at me, you cared about me so much, so I gradually stopped being angry."
"Um."
"Every time I was in danger, you came to help me. You also saved my stupid brother several times, like the time in the square and the time with Makutaki."
“It’s just a piece of cake.”
"This is the first time I like someone. Actually, I don't know what love is... I just know that after I found out who you are, I felt empty inside."
Gu Wenyu suddenly stopped responding, just closed his eyes and stared into the darkness.
"When I found the cardboard box under your bed this morning, I sat alone in your room for a long time. I really wanted to call you and hear your voice, but I held back... Am I awesome?" she continued in a very soft voice.
"Actually, I said it a long time ago. If you knew who I am, you would definitely regret it." Gu Wenyu said as he opened his eyes, turned his head, and quietly met her gaze.
"So, do you regret it?" he asked curiously.
Su Zimai thought about it and shook his head.
"I have no regrets."
"I feel that those are all your illusions. For example, the suspension bridge effect, people who have experienced danger together tend to like each other, and also... teenagers are not mentally mature yet. It's not surprising that they tend to regard the other person as very important after being rescued once... Well, when you grow up to my age, you will know how naive you are now."
After saying that, Gu Wenyu silently added in his heart: Although I am only twelve years old, when you grow up to my age, I'm afraid you will have to grow in reverse, you diaper demon.
"Oh, I see."
"Okay, then can I let Gu Wenyu out?"
"Big moth...give my brother back to me."
"Okay, I'll release Gu Wenyu from the library right away..." Before Gu Wenyu could finish his words, he suddenly froze in place. Su Zimai rushed forward and hugged him, burying his head in his arms.
Her eyes were red, and tears could not stop flowing from the corners of her eyes. The warmth from her arms made him stay for a long time.
"What's wrong with you again?" Gu Wenyu came back to his senses and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"What..." She put her head close to his arms, her voice hoarse, whispering, "I can't act like a spoiled child to outsiders, so why don't you let me act like a spoiled child to my own brother?"
Gu Wenyu stared at her face with his eyes downcast, hesitated for a moment, then reached out and touched the top of her head. The girl's hair flowed through his fingers like water.
"I really hate you. You've been playing tricks on me. Do you think it's fun to lie to me? I'll be sad too."
"I'm sorry."
"You have always been like this since I was little. You just bully me because I am the only one in the family who is not smart..."
"I'm sorry."
"I thought I had become powerful enough to protect you...but I didn't expect you had kept me in the dark the whole time."
"Um, sorry."
"You... obviously care about me so much, why don't you just tell me directly?"
"Who made Gu Wenyu such a weird person? In fact, sometimes, I don’t even know who I am playing, Gu Wenyu or Hei Pupa... or maybe, in fact, I was no one from the beginning." At this point, Ji Minghuan suddenly lowered his head, and his drooping hair covered his eyes.
He curled the corners of his mouth in self-mockery and turned his head to look at the turbulence of time and space outside the window.
Neither of them spoke, but the girl's even and steady breathing could be heard.
The carriage was quiet.
The train was still rumbling forward, heading to an unknown distance. Gu Wenyu sat on his seat, reading a book with one hand and gently touching the girl's head with the other. The girl in his arms slowly calmed down, and the redness in her eyes was no longer so noticeable.
"elder brother."
"Yes."
"Brother, brother."
"Yes, yes."
"I forgive you."
"good."
