Uncle, are you a pedophile?

"We've already done more intimate things, and this is just a simple wall slam, yet Chuuya is so resistant to me..."

They both froze halfway through their conversation. Since the last incident, they had both tacitly forgotten what had happened that day, and this was the first time it had been brought up in public.

Dazai's pupils dilated. The moment the words left his mouth, he realized what he had said and began to regret it. He froze, feeling trapped with Chuuya... It was really too bad...

【ah? 】

[Was that thin veil between them just torn down that day?]

[Dazai, I'll never call you a coward again. Aren't you pretty brave?]

However, judging from Dazai's shocked expression, he probably didn't even realize what he had said, but he already regretted it as soon as he spoke.

[She turns into a 3-year-old in front of Chuuya. I'm so curious how Chuuya will respond.]

"Hello!"

Chuuya's gaze swept across the comments before finally settling on Dazai's slightly averted profile.

"That incident... was just an accident..."

"Does Chuuya really think he can just brush off the fact that he stole my first kiss with a casual 'accident'?!"

He carefully considered his words, but his mind was actually blank, and he subconsciously wanted to gloss over the matter.

But then Dazai, who was still frozen in place, suddenly bristled, his eyes widening as he stared intently at Chuuya.

"You're talking like it's not my first kiss! Hey! You jerk!"

"It was Chuuya who took advantage of my weakness first, wasn't it? He kissed me while I was unconscious. Is it strange that Chuuya was the first kisser? After all, he's short and not popular with girls. Could it be that he was jealous of how popular I am with girls, so he secretly took my first kiss?"

"Who would do something like that on purpose?!"

"Who knows? Maybe someone who always wears all black and is short will do it."

"Damn you, Dazai!"

Chuuya understood what Dazai meant and glared angrily at him. Dazai made an innocent expression, which made Chuuya even angrier.

I didn't specifically name Chuuya. If Chuuya insists on thinking that way, then there's nothing I can do about it.

That expression clearly conveyed that meaning! That bastard!

[Hilarious! Although Dazai didn't say it explicitly, what's the difference between that and naming names?]

[Both of them are having their first kiss, so innocent, that's interesting.]

[Simply... just said it like that? That's a bit unbelievable]

【Feel】

Neither of them noticed that they were now even closer than when they first slammed against the wall; they could clearly feel each other's breath hitting their faces.

"Was Chuuya actually sober at the time?"

After a long while, Dazai suddenly blurted out a sentence that made Chuuya break out in a cold sweat.

"Huh? That was under polluted conditions." Chuuya denied it outright, but Dazai had already figured out the answer he wanted from Chuuya's micro-expressions.

"If Chuuya doesn't want to admit it, then so be it~ Anyway, it's a fact that Chuuya took my first kiss."

...

"Wow... Jay, did you hear that? They're actually in that kind of relationship! Guys and guys can... um..."

After experiencing the shock to his worldview, and realizing what the loud voice next to him was saying, Xia Youjie's originally narrow eyes suddenly widened, and he covered Gojo Satoru's mouth before he could say anything more.

"It can't be said directly, Wu, they've already carried too much..."

Chuuya: "What nonsense are you two brats spouting?!"

"I'm not making this up. You guys were the ones talking about kissing, and you were just about to kiss each other."

"Wu! Don't say it so directly, those uncles will only get angry and embarrassed."

"You two annoying brats! Who would kiss this jerk?"

"If anyone should be complaining, it should be me complaining about Chuuya first, right?"

"You bastard, I'm going to kill you!"

"Because you couldn't argue with me, you started to lose your temper. Chuuya is still as easy to understand as ever~"

...

"Can you guys please stop showing affection in front of minors?"

Although Xia Youjie still maintained that smiling look, the veins on his forehead were bulging.

Dazai and Chuuya were interrupted by this voice, finally stopping their argument. They looked up at the two DKs and suddenly spoke.

"There seems to be only one person present who looks like a minor, right?"

"So, according to what you're saying, then you're a pedophile, aren't you?!"

"Huh? You bastard Dazai, who are you calling short?"

Of the four people present, three were over 180cm tall. They looked like minors—wasn't that a reference to himself? Chuuya had already cursed out by the time he realized it, but when Gojo Satoru spoke, the other three stopped and fell silent.

[Gojo Satoru! Are you really a genius?]

[Haha, Dazai probably never imagined he'd one day become a pedophile, right? And being called "uncle" makes him even more like one!]

[I've been misunderstood as being like Mr. Mori...]

[Shouldn't Chuuya be the most tragic victim? Poor Chuuya, he's not the one being talked about, but he's the one who's embarrassed.]

Just like the comments said, Chuuya is really at the red-hot level now. It's already too much to be teased about his height, which he "doesn't care that much" about. So why did Dazai come to the conclusion that he's a pedophile because of him?!

"Wu, just because someone is short and cute doesn't mean you should treat them like a child! That older man might just like short people; you can't accuse him of being a pedophile based on that alone."

[As expected of the naturally cunning Jet, although every word he says is in defense of Dazai and Chuuya, won't it cause Chuuya a second blow?]

Two more arrows seemed to pierce Chuuya's heart, unseen by him. Chuuya finally saw through this bun-haired, squinty-eyed guy's true nature. He spouted platitudes, but wasn't he just a wolf in sheep's clothing? Why are there such unlovable high school students?!

"But I didn't. Originally, there were only the two of us who were minors. It was that uncle who insisted on saying that. This is just a reasonable conclusion derived from his statement."

Chuuya thought of Mr. Mori mentioned in the comments earlier, and suddenly felt much better, because the person who was most vulnerable now was someone else.

"Pedophile? Older man?"

With his head bowed, Dazai slowly and softly recited the origin of all evil.

[Dazai Osamu seems to have been driven to insanity by Gojo Satoru, and he's only now showing any reaction.]

[I feel like five of them are in danger]

Chuuya nodded secretly as he watched the comment that floated over; otherwise, it would be hard to explain why that guy hadn't reacted at all before.

"I'm not a perverted pedophile like that heartless doctor! That's the only thing I absolutely disagree with! In the end, it's all Chuuya's fault, isn't it?"

"Dazai, you are not allowed to slander the leader!"

Seeing Dazai jump up and yell as expected, Chuuya admitted that his temper, which had been triggered by the height difference, had eased a little. However, he still instinctively refuted and stopped Dazai for slandering his leader.

Dazai's already downturned lips, which were already sullen from Gojo Satoru's words, sank even further before he quickly pulled up a playful smile, his eyes fixed on Chuuya with a cold gaze.

"Heh, I almost forgot that Zhong is also an exceptionally loyal dog~"

For some reason, Zhong looked away with a guilty look, while the comments section was still discussing what had just happened.

Even though he hadn't done anything wrong, Chuuya attributed it to the fact that he had secretly watched Dazai make fun of him earlier.

"So you were going to act alone? Why did you find it now?"

"Wu has already found all the criminals that can be 'identified' directly, but there are still 100 short."

Xia Youjie, who was standing next to him, explained the reason. Upon hearing Xia Youjie's words, Chuuya subconsciously turned around to look at Dazai, but the latter had already turned his back. When Chuuya looked over, he clicked his tongue loudly.

[Because you treat Chuuya as your possession, you're starting to sulk when you see Chuuya treating others like 'masters'? You're so easily swayed by my sour grapes.]

[But what can be done? He can't really cause trouble for Chuuya, so every time Chuuya subconsciously defends the boss in front of Dazai, Mori-san always ends up with some inexplicable little troubles.]

[Dazai, you still love him too much]

"Why did I instinctively look at that guy? I was the one who found all 400 criminals, wasn't I?"

Dissatisfied with Chuuya's reaction, Gojo bent down to a height where he could look Chuuya directly in the eye, removed his sunglasses, and the two pairs of different blue eyes met.

Of course, this was a very impolite act. Before Xia Youjie could pull Gojo Satoru away, Chuuya on the other side was pulled back a step first.

"Of course it's because I already told Chuuya that this place definitely wouldn't let us leave so easily, Mighty-kun."

After Dazai pulled Chuuya to a position where he maintained a normal social distance from Gojo and the others, he slowly raised his eyes to meet Gojo's gaze.

"Tch, so you know how to get out, huh, old man?"

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, I'm getting old and my mind isn't working well. I can't think of it, I really don't know."

Chuuya and Natsumi watched the two engage in this silent "confrontation" from the sidelines, their lips twitching as they exchanged a glance and a look of sympathy.

Ah, Gojo is still too green. This is Dazai Osamu, a seasoned master of yin and yang.

Even with his back turned, he could pull Chuuya back in an instant? Dazai, you bastard!

[Xiao Zai's domineering protection of his wife]

"This is so boring, Jay. Let's go back and rest."

"What are you still standing there for? Or do you want to grow taller by basking in the moonlight here?"

Gojo Satoru straightened up, turned around with a rare hint of frustration on his face, and Dazai turned back without a trace of lingering affection. The two voices rang out at the same time.

"Then we'll take our leave."

When Xia Youjie left, he politely greeted the person he was greeting, but the person he greeted didn't notice him because the two of them had started arguing again.

Xia You turned around and looked at the back of the person in front of him, and breathed a sigh of relief. At least he was more relaxed than the other person.

"You bastard Dazai, I'm going to kill you!"

"I was just making a reasonable guess~ Why are you so angry, Chuuya? Or is it that Chuuya and that squinty-eyed guy have just hit it off and are planning to have a long talk here all night, and I'm the one who's disturbing you?"

Clearly, Dazai did not miss the eye contact between Chuuya and Natsuyuki during his argument with Gojo Satoru.

"What does this have to do with that squinty-eyed guy?"

Chuuya asked in confusion, having long forgotten about the eye contact he had exchanged with Xia Youjie. Looking at Dazai, who seemed to feel inexplicably better after he said those words, Chuuya had even more questions on his mind.

Did Xia Youjie and Zhong also have any exchanges?

We only made eye contact once, right?

[As for Dazai's ability to multitask, he's arguing with Gojo Satoru on one hand, and keeping a close eye on Chuuya on the other. Is he really that concerned? Little Usagi Osamu, don't love him too much.]

[I'm totally shipping them!]
