Help! The male protagonists in otome games are Ultraman!

Chapter 155 I also bet he'll confess

After ending the conversation, Zero put away the light screen, but when he looked up, he actually saw his father!

Seven stood right in front of him, his calm gaze giving him an urge to turn and run away—it was terrifying.

"Father, what are you doing here?"

This is right in front of his house.

Although their addresses were not far apart, it was rather frightening that they came to his house without making a sound, stood at the door without going in, and stared at him.

"Come in with me first."

Seven turned and went into the house.

Just as Zero was considering whether to slip away, Seven's voice rang out again: "Don't make me repeat myself."

Zero obediently followed him inside.

No, this is his house!!!

"G?"

"Here it comes~"

In the living room, Seven sat and Zero stood, one calm and the other anxious.

"Zero..."

Zero thought his father had discovered he was keeping a mistress...

No, no, what do you mean by keeping a mistress in a golden house!

"What, what's wrong?"

"I saw you before, and then followed you all the way to Ultra Airport, but then you disappeared. I want to know, what were you doing there?"

"Gone?"

"What else do you want?"

"Nothing, nothing."

Zero completely relaxed, as long as no one noticed.

But where can we find an excuse for this in the short term?

Never mind, I'll just give you a couple of random answers.

"Although I've been in the Land of Light all this time, I haven't really explored around, so I figured I'd just take a stroll and relax after completing my mission."

What a perfect explanation!!!

Seven didn't react much, only asking, "That's it?"

"Of course, what else could there be? There's nothing there. I just took a quick look around and lost interest, so I came back."

Zero touched his nose and explained calmly.

Oh, right, he doesn't have a nose.

"In that case, I'm relieved. I thought you were hiding something from me."

"How could that be?" Zero waved his hand. "Dad, you're really overthinking it."

"I was overthinking it. But just now, you had a smile on your face, so you must have been chatting with someone important. I didn't think too much about that, did I?"

G:"……"

Good heavens, Father actually had another trick up his sleeve!

But how could this possibly stump Zero?

“I was talking to Hikari. I saw some cool tattoos on some aliens, so I asked Hikari to get me one too. He said he could help me research a tattoo that can be removed at any time, and it even glows. Father, would you like to take a look?”

Seven immediately became serious upon hearing about tattoos: "You're too young, you can't get tattoos, you can't put weird things on your body..."

Zero pretended to be devastated, nodding listlessly, but was actually overjoyed, having finally fooled them.

Finally, Seven patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "I'm not trying to control you, it's just that you're not fully mature yet, so I'm worried about you. Don't hide anything from me, I'll never be angry, I just..."

Zero's joy vanished, replaced by a deep sense of guilt.

He thought, should I just tell my father? It's not a very serious matter anyway, and now it's come to the point where I have to lie...

At this moment, Jiang Nai sent a message: "Zero-chan, what should we eat tomorrow?"

He stared at the message for a while, then smiled in resignation and quickly typed: "I want meat, extra spicy, and a large portion!"

Jiang Nai: Okay, no problem, I'll make sure you're well fed.

After putting away the light screen, Zero stretched his limbs; he needed to find a place to vent his frustrations.

And so, life went on like this.

Jiang Nai either tries to win over Zero or goes live to complain when Zero isn't around, because she feels very awkward holding back her words, and sometimes she almost forgets about it.

As for Zero, he went to Jiang Nai's place for meals every day, but in order to avoid being discovered, he asked Hikari to make a space bridging device.

Although he can teleport, it consumes a lot of energy, so it's more convenient to ask Hikari to make a gadget.

It's convenient for him, but it's tough on Hikari.

He doesn't want to bother anyone except Zero and Zero's friend.

Actually, Zero was just doing it incidentally. He was afraid that contacting only Zero's friend would make Zero jealous. After all, he could sense that Zero and his friend's relationship was a little...close, so it was better to be careful.

The latter one was purely for exchanging information about the markings.

He thought that all he needed to do afterward was contact Zero's friends, since he also needed to observe her behavior to facilitate communication.

She remained quiet, but Zero was quite a handful, constantly asking him how his research was going, asking him to research various things, sending message after message. Anyone who didn't know better would think the one with the mark was him.

Hikari's final warning: If you bother me again, I'll block you and only contact your friend!

Zero immediately replied: No, I won't say anything, I won't bother you, you can focus on your research.

Half an hour later, the screen remained silent, which put Hikari at ease. At the same time, he considered whether to block Zero as well.

The three mentioned above are very busy, extremely busy.

One person pretended to be mute and started a live stream.

One of them secretly went to meet the other, and had to keep it a secret from everyone.

One must strive to research, continue researching, researching and researching...

“Brother Zoffy, your suspicion is correct. Zero is really acting strangely. Although he’s pretending, I know my son. He’s hiding something from me.”

"Guards," Seven said to Zoffy.

“I thought I was mistaken.” Zoffy looked at him and asked, “Should we have someone investigate or check the surveillance footage? Maybe we can find out what Zero is doing.”

Seven refused: "That's not necessary. I'll wait for Zero to confess to me on his own. I just need to know that Zero isn't doing anything wrong."

"If he doesn't confess, would you take the initiative to expose him?"

Zoffy asked him seriously.

“I…” Seven was bewildered. “I don’t know either. Maybe I don’t know how to get along with my son, or maybe I never really understood him. Although I often protected him secretly when he was little, I wasn’t really involved in his life. Should I stop pursuing this? After all, he needs privacy too…”

He didn't even know what he was saying anymore.

Zoffy offered heartwarming advice: "Just let things take their course. I believe Zero will come out on his own. You should also trust in the bond between you two as father and son. He has great respect and admiration for you as his father."

"I know, and I believe it, it's just..."

"Don't worry, Seven. All you have to do now is pretend you don't know and don't ask any questions. Just wait."

Seven hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Let's make a bet then."

"What are you gambling?"

"I bet Zero will tell you the truth."

"..." Seven smiled slightly, "I also bet he'll confess."

Zoffy suppressed a laugh.
