【Quan Zhen】According to the script, we should kiss now?

【20】

With the experience of the first round, Yumu played very proficiently in the second round.When he entered the secret base hidden under the shopping mall, he even had spare time to look through the main hall—on the premise that Sena held hands with the excuse of "I will be You Jun's temporary glasses"—the base It's actually not that big, but it's a visual dislocation effect, so Yuki thought it was very wide when he saw it for the first time.In addition to the main hall, there are only five poker-patterned doors, all of which are closed, and Sena has no intention of showing him around.If Yuki guessed correctly, it should be the rest room for the members of the Phantom Thieves.

You Mu looked carefully at the hall, where the furniture was arranged in a chaotic and orderly manner, the bed was abrupt and eye-catching, and the uneven walls of the wallpaper were marked with marker pens.This familiar sense of sight reminded him of the exclusive studio of Knights in reality. Obviously, this is the site of those knights, and his "hacker" does not seem to belong here.

"How is it here?" Sena took Yuki's hand and walked back to the glass table in the center, with a proud tone.

"great."

Youmu has finished visiting, but Sena still hasn't let go: "I've always advocated adding a room to You Jun, but you still refuse."

Thinking of the real identity of this hacker, You Mu could understand why the other party refused to agree.But Sena didn't understand. He held Yuki's other hand and said meaningfully: "If you change your mind, you are welcome to stay with me at any time. Anyway, we always go on missions together."

"Thank you, I don't think I need it." Youmu said dryly.

Sena was not discouraged either, apparently used to Yuki's alienation.He withdrew to leave, and Youmu suddenly felt something cold in his tightly held hand—the newly made glasses.

"Where do you want to go next?"

The system jumps out of the familiar branch selection, but it is somewhat different from the memory: {Go to school; go to the city library; go home to rest}

"I want to go to the library," Yuki glanced at Yanasena, "it's not from the school, it's a short walk away, and Izumi-san doesn't have to see me off."

Sena raised her eyebrows: "I haven't issued an invitation yet, you don't need to refuse in such a hurry, right?" His tone sounded a little unpleasant, and Yuki immediately became nervous, because the last round always chose to respond proactively, but instead It aroused the suspicion of the monster thief, so this time he deliberately kept his distance, but it seemed a bit too much, did he make Sena angry?

"However, I won't push you so hard. It's better if you are willing." Sena said, pulling out a long scarf from her cuffs like a magic trick, wrapped it around Yuki's neck, and attached a embroidered scarf. Beanie with white pompom.

"You Jun's clothes are too thin, brother will be very distressed if he catches a cold."

His fingertips brushed Yumu's cheek, and the already embarrassed young man secretly blushed.Obviously the speaker's own hands are colder, You Mu said silently in his heart, burying half of his face in the warm scarf.Walking back to the ground, the cold wind made the two of them shiver. Yuki looked at Sena who was thin and pretended to be calm, and couldn't help but said:

"Izumi-san too, if I get sick, I will be very troubled."

Sena laughed happily, as if catering to Yuki's concern, he immediately took out the cold protection equipment from his pocket like a different dimension, and put it on contentedly.

"It took me a long time to decide. The one with You Jun is a couple's model."

Yuki vainly rolled up the scarf, trying to make it look out of place with Sena's.

"Are there any plans for tonight? I want to go to a place with You Jun." Sena's tone suddenly became serious, like some kind of signal, which instantly awakened You Mu's memory.Today is the day before the two of Chu Zhoumu go to the Ferris wheel, and it is also the birthday of Sena Izumi in this world.He still remembered that not-so-romantic date that was mixed with bitterness and suspicion.

This time, the options popped up by the system were meaningless to Yumu, he did not hesitate for a moment, and decisively chose to go to the appointment.

Sena didn't seem to expect Yuki to agree so simply.Seeing his surprised expression, You Mu felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment in his heart.

"Because Izumi-san's expression is like saying, I hope I will come..." I was still a little embarrassed to say this by myself, Yuki looked away uncomfortably, and missed Sena's wonderful expression of surprise and surprise.

After saying goodbye to Sena, Yuki teleported to the city library.The task of the system update is to find and read certain books, the names are obscure, but Yumu understands that knowledge will help him solve more mysteries sooner or later.The basic courses he took in the classroom have ended, so he decided to spend the spare time in the second week on studying more advanced books.

When the time passed in the evening, Yuki left the library early and turned into the gift shop to pick up gifts on the way to the appointment.Although the routes and shops are systematically arranged, and even the gifts that can be chosen are fixed, Yuki is still very interested and can't wait to see Sena's reaction when she receives the unexpected gift.

The place where the two agreed to meet was at the door of a sukiyaki restaurant.Sena strictly followed Yuki's instructions, wrapped her up tightly, her silver-gray curly hair was obscured by scarves and hats, and her dark coat was inconspicuous among the dark-colored crowd, but even so, Yuki Mu still found him right away, just like Sena can always see herself in the crowd, like some kind of two-way magic spell with a heart.

After the hot beef hot pot—although Yuki could only taste two tokens in the game—Sena led Yuki to the old amusement park in the city center.It seems to be extraordinarily cold tonight, with the evening wind blowing on my body, my clothes are useless and turned into thin sheets of paper.In the severe winter, people can't help but rely on each other for warmth. When Yuki realized it, he had already acquiesced in Sena's initiative to win over, and was hugged by the other party's waist, and the two cuddled tightly together.

Perhaps it is too cold, there are almost no tourists in the park, and the only Ferris wheel with lights is turning slowly alone, and most of the cars are empty.

"It's really cold." Yumu, who hid in the flat iron box, spoke with a trembling voice. Except for the absence of cold wind, the car was no different from the outside, and the iron seats were even colder than ice.

"If you're afraid of the cold, why don't you come here," Sena said, opening her arms in a serious manner, as if she was sure that Yuki would throw herself into her arms: "Brother's arms are very warm, aren't they?"

Youmu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he was actually a little shaken in his heart, but the hacker and the strange thief obviously haven't reached such a close relationship yet, so we can't act too hastily.

"If I pass by, I will lose my balance."

Sena stood up immediately after hearing the words: "Then I'll go there."

"No, wait——Quan Sang?"

Before he had time to stop, Sena had already stepped forward to Yuki, her open arms pressed eagerly on his chest, and the dry and warm air rushed towards her face, carrying the faint scent of eau de toilette.The car is very small, the distance between the two of them is already very narrow, and Sena's strides are too big, eager to rush to Yuki's side. The cabin tilted tremblingly, fortunately not much, but enough to make Yuki tremble with fear.

"Is it warm?"

Sena's chin rested on Yuuki's shoulder, and the fluff on the down cap was blown up and down by his exhalation.He could feel the slight trembling still uncontrollable by the other party, the soft hair tips were like grass tips scratching his cheeks, which made his tone much softer.

"It's too dangerous, Quansang, hurry back to your seat," You Mu's voice was muffled, and after a while he added in a low voice, "...it's very warm."

The short hair stuck to the side of his face no longer trembled, and became docile.Sena was satisfied, and reluctantly tightened her arms and hugged Yuki vigorously before letting go.

You Mu also sat back on the cold seat, retracted his hands into his pockets, and touched two packs of warm hand warmers.There is no doubt that this is Sena's masterpiece again, and the body and the back of the neck are also warm, and it is obvious that Sena has quietly attached a warm treasure, no wonder he suddenly wanted to hug just now.

"It's snowing." Sena looked out of the window and said softly, Yuki followed his gaze and looked out, fine powder snow floated in the dark blue night sky.For a moment, Youmu had the illusion that they were locked in a snow globe isolated from the world, silently staring at the bustling city covered in real heavy snow.

"It's so beautiful." You Mu murmured, in reality, he had just passed such a busy winter, and even had a brief meeting with someone on Christmas Eve, and he didn't have time to appreciate a snow scene.

"Like it?"

"Well," Youmu's gaze was still lingering on the neon-lit streets, "I've always wanted to see the aurora and the endless snowfield with my own eyes."

"Want to go with me?" Sena asked suddenly.

Yuki looked at him confused.

"I mean, if I'm not a phantom thief, and You Jun is no longer a hacker," Seto said carefully, "Would you like to leave here with me and go somewhere else?"

He looked a little uneasy, he didn't have the calmness that the Phantom Thief should have at all, and he looked more like the senior Izumi in Yuki's memory who was hesitant about gains and losses.Youmu was silent, he didn't know how to answer the question correctly, or, there was no so-called standard answer to such a question that blurred the boundaries between feelings and business affairs.

Before he knew it, the car was almost at the top, and soon, Youmu could see the veiled confession again, he became nervous, his cheeks were even hotter than the hand warmer in his pocket.He held his breath and waited for Sena to start the topic. No, or would it be more natural for him to ask the question first?But wouldn't that raise suspicions?It's strange, why Sena hasn't spoken yet, isn't this something the other party wants to tell her, isn't it something she wants to show him?

Just as Youmu was frantically swiping the screen, the car was about to reach the highest point.The neon words that can only be seen from a special perspective have begun to take shape, and the emotion lingering on the tip of Youmu's tongue is ready to come out.Suddenly, Sena stretched out his hand, blocking Yuki's gaze.

"What's wrong?" Yuki asked puzzled.

Sena seemed a little silent, he slowly withdrew his hand, and said with a smile: "There is a thread in You Jun's hair, and I have already picked it off."

Intuition told Yuki that this was probably the worst lie the Kaitou had ever told in his life.

The ferris wheel continued to rotate, and the car slowly fell back to the ground. From the beginning to the end, Sena never mentioned that short-lived scene, and even said very little, just staring at Yuki silently, and would not stop when the other party looked over. open sight.

The awkward silence made Yuki very flustered, he was afraid that he would miss the good opportunity to respond to Sena, and repeat the same mistakes again.If Sena still let himself see LOVE in the first week, then this time he didn't even intend to reveal his heart, and he didn't even want Yuki to see the neon word.Yuki clenched his fists, he didn't want to lose to this annoying silence, if Sena didn't say it, then he was the one to ask.

"Chun-sang said 'the place you want to go with me', is this Ferris wheel?"

Sena was a little surprised that Yuki rarely took the initiative to find something to say, so he adjusted his sitting posture and nodded.

"The night view is beautiful, this is a great place," Youmu continued, "Thank you Quansang for bringing me here, I also have something to give you."

Sena didn't speak, but his eyes widened, seeing such an expression on the face of the Kaitou, a sense of superiority arose in Yuki's heart.He took out the small gift box hidden in his trouser pocket and put it in Sena's raised hand mechanically.

"Happy birthday, Quan-san."

Sena stared at him blankly, but soon, that blank look disappeared, and he smiled, like a living spring suddenly appearing in a dead pond, too much emotion rolled in his eyes, as if there were thousands of stars in the sky The flickering lights in the eyes condensed into the most gentle light, falling on You Mu.

"Does You Jun still miss my birthday? It was clearly half a month ago."

This time it was Yuki's turn to be stunned.

"However, I was on a mission at the time, and I didn't even remember my birthday. Unexpectedly, You Jun specially made up a birthday present for me."

Wait, the brain that has received too much information for a while can't function well. Yuki struggles to analyze the meaning of Sena's words. He said that he is making up a gift, so today is not Sena's birthday at all. Sena claimed that it was her birthday that night, but it was just a lie?

"What, no, I mean, as long as Quansang likes it." Youmu almost missed his words.

Sena carefully put the gift into the inner pocket, and kept her gaze on Yuki's face, as if trying to read his mind carefully.

"What's on your mind, Mr. You?"

"No, no, nothing."

"Really." Sena turned his gaze to the window, which made Yuki heave a sigh of relief.

"Actually, November 11, that's just the number on the file. I didn't tell You Jun my real birthday—even though You Jun never said your own. Let's make it even. However, I always want to Be more frank with You Jun, just take this opportunity to tell you."

Sena stopped, stared at Yuki again, and said word by word:

"Today just so happens to be my real birthday."

After he finished speaking, he laughed self-deprecatingly: "For a hacker, this has almost wiped out all the property. However, if the target is You Jun, I am not afraid."

Sena's confession was like the end of the ferris wheel's journey. The car turned back to the starting point, and the staff was already standing on the outside, ready to open the car door at any time.

Yuki sat quietly on the seat, full of thoughts, several times he almost couldn't restrain himself from expressing his heart directly, but reason warned him that now is not the time, even if he wants to see Sena not get any response and pain, he can't just go straight now Say I like it.

After all, this is just the life of a hacker played by Yuki. No matter how similar they are, they are not him after all. The hacker at this moment has not responded to Sena's feelings, so all Yuki can do is keep silent.

Just when the car door was about to open, Youmu suddenly noticed two small and inconspicuous system branches near the doorknob: {Leave directly; wait a moment}

This subtle discovery effectively prevented Yuki from leaving. He turned his head, and the answer subtitles seemed to be prepared a long time ago, hanging brightly beside Sena.

"Although I can't say it yet, I also have something I want to confess to Quansang. I know it's very cunning... Please wait for me."

Sena looked at him, his eyes seemed to be relieved of something he had not expected for a long time, and it seemed to be annoyed by a new round of waiting. In the end, he still smiled at him.

"If it's You Jun, I'm willing to wait as long as I want."
