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

【26】

After a short rest, Yuki tried to get up from the bed, the invisible ice shell wrapped around his skin fell off, Sena put a blanket on him in due course, and he finally felt alive.

Yuki, whose eyesight recovered, took the hot drink made by the other party, and then had time to look around. Under the guidance of AI, Sena took him to the health room of a certain middle school. In order to avoid being caught by the night patrol security guards, they did not turn on the lights. The dim light source of Youmu's mobile phone, and the surprisingly bright moon outside the window.

"Better?"

Sena asked, her tone was much more stable and introverted than before, and she could no longer hear emotions.Yuki nodded, and thanked softly while holding the steaming mug.

Silence stretches all the way in the room like moonlight, climbing up to the head of the bed that Youmu leans on.The emergency crisis has been resolved, and they seem to have no reason to continue to be intimate.Sena leaned against the window, keeping a polite distance from Yuki, the moonlight illuminated his side face, if there was no redness and swelling left in the corner of his eyes, Yuki couldn't imagine holding his hand and crying People are Sena Izumi.

The mobile phone next to the pillow flickered, and the AI, which didn't understand the embarrassment and silence of human beings, told the time in a businesslike manner, and reminded the two that time was running out and they had to go to their destination as soon as possible.Yuki put down the phone, his eyes just met Sena's, the latter seemed to have nothing to do with him, but the hand holding the porcelain cup was unconsciously clenched.

"Are you leaving?"

"Yeah." Yuki lifted the quilt, and Sena got a lot of warm treasures from somewhere, and stuck them on him. Although it was very warm, for the convenience of work, he had to tear it off one by one.

"Your Majesty, don't you have anything to say?"

Youmu paused, but did not answer immediately. Another system prompt appeared in front of his eyes, telling him that he had switched back to player mode, and that the different choices he made would affect the final ending, so please decide carefully.

{Mission priority; Confession to Sena}

Yuki looked at the flashing notification light on his phone. If it was a hacker, would he still put the task first at the moment, or... He couldn't help but sneak a glance at Sena, who was still staring at him, as if born in the moonlight The elves in this world are so indifferent that there is no trace of smoke and fire, but those eyes are like the sea of ​​ice where the deepest despair is buried, a gap that accommodates all emotions, hidden and hidden. With just one glance, You Mu understands that the balance in his heart has tilted .

"Maybe Quan Sang already knows about it," he dimmed the notification light on his cell phone, and said with a heartbeat, "I... am not Quan Sang's companion, but the police."

Sena was obviously not surprised, he was silent, as if waiting for Yuki Shimo.

"The police dispatched quickly on this mission, and I deliberately disclosed the information," he glanced at Sena, who was still indifferent, "in order not to arouse the suspicion of the police."

"You think they doubt their own people?"

"Yes, although it sounds like a lie."

Sena said noncommittally: "I am better at lie detection than You Jun." The implication is that you just say it.

Youmu smiled bitterly: "Actually, I also have doubts, so I have to go there—in order to verify this conjecture."

"The office building?"

"Does Quansang still remember that account book? I found something in the computer of the finance department, but unfortunately I couldn't fully decipher it. I also saw similar clues in the masquerade show this time. I suspect there is a deeper connection. "

Sena pondered and said: "I was also surprised when I was told that the target was the account book, but the guy who is interested in it refused to explain more, I am too lazy to ask. There are missing pages in the account book, it should be artificially cut Lost."

"There are also missing items in the electronic account, which is probably the same as missing pages in the account book." You Mu echoed.

"So You Jun wants me to go together to find out 'who' has been erased?"

Yuki hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.

"I won't ask Quansang to trust me, it's just... that is also very useful information for Knights. If Quansang is still willing, please cooperate with me one last time."

Sena approached the bed, the moonlight faded from his face, the cold layer melted away, and his eyes became blurred.

"After confessing that I'm an undercover agent, you still want to use me to achieve your goal?" Sena smiled, but said sharply: "Aren't you afraid that I will betray you by betraying you? Just like You Jun did before."

Thousands of words came to his throat, but Yuki couldn't utter a single word, he could only watch Sena walk in front of him, pinching his chin to force him to look up.The eyes that have lost the bright white moonlight are like the pupils of a ferocious beast hidden in the dark night, exuding a dangerous light, as if it would tear Youmu to pieces at any time.

"Or repent halfway, arrest You Jun and lock him up in a place where no second person can find him. No matter how much you ask for help, no one will come to you like me."

Yuki felt his nails digging into his skin, and the sharp pain made him unable to help but let out a low moan.His heart sank to the bottom, he regretted his irrational choice, he really shouldn't have told the truth at a critical moment, in fact, that was Sena's minefield, and it was the last straw that crushed the precarious trust between the two.The pain of flesh and blood is nothing, the real pain is his wishful thinking that the other party will really believe him... Yuki thought bitterly, until he heard Sena's self-mockery:

"—if only I could do so without hesitation."

The force pinching his chin disappeared, replaced by a soft palm, a hand carefully threading through his hair, and cold fingertips caressing his earlobe.

"It would be nice if you could easily regard You Jun as an 'enemy', so you wouldn't struggle, you wouldn't be ugly, jealous, suspicious, and jealous, and you wouldn't be played around like a ridiculous clown."

Yumu raised his face in a daze, every word Sena said was as painful as a knife carved in his heart, he clearly gritted his teeth, but his eyebrows and eyes were so affectionate, as gentle as a lover who was about to kiss.

He felt a cool touch on his lips, it was Sena's thumb, tracing his lips softly and delicately, his face couldn't help but flushed, frankly, Yuki thought for a moment that the other party would kiss him.

"I will go with you."

He heard Sena whisper in his ear, as firm as a knight's declaration.

Revisiting the old place and being guided by the mobile phone, the two quickly sneaked into the office building. The firewall that took a lot of effort to fix in the past is completely ruined by Yumu at this moment.

Under the leadership of Sena, they arrived at the financial room smoothly.Yuki uses AI to decipher the file, while he turns on the desktop computer, loads the virus plug-in, and begins to conquer the so-called fire alarm system outside the president's office.That was something he was very concerned about at the beginning of the first week. Unfortunately, his ability was limited before and he couldn't crack it for a long time. But this time, with the program written by the hacker himself and AI assistance, the seemingly indestructible firewall finally fell apart.

Sena, who was guarding outside the president's room, heard a "ding" and knew that Yuki had succeeded.The warning lights of the alarms hanging outside the glass walls flickered as if they were malfunctioning, and the capsule-shaped instruments were opened in unison, connecting end to end in a line.He heard Youmu say through the wireless headset, Quansang turned off the alarms in the order I said, please be careful, if you make a mistake, the self-explosion system will be triggered.

Sena smiled lightly, he had seen too many dangerous traps that could lead to death if he made a mistake, so it would be a lie to say that he was not nervous, but listening to Yuki's voice, he relaxed instead.

"Then I have to be careful, I can't set off fireworks next to You Jun."

"Don't make such a joke at this time, please be serious." You Mu was helpless, that person was obviously the most dangerous, but his attitude of having nothing to do with him made him anxious.

"I'm serious," Sena said in a serious tone, "but I won't be nervous, because you are here."

"..." Youmu pushed his glasses uncomfortably, rubbed his fingers over the tip of his nose, and whispered, "I was even more nervous when Quansang said that. I'm about to start."

Then came a series of high-difficulty mini-games. Although there was no system prompt, Yuki guessed that this must be a continuous level that was successfully completed in one go, so his energy was highly concentrated, and Sena over there stopped joking and cooperated with Yuki seriously. Under the command of Mu, he executes orders in the president's office that has been remodeled due to the agency.

When he read out the last prompt, Yumu finally heaved a sigh of relief.Sena successfully solved all the tricks, and dug up the dictionary buried deep in the safe under the floor, which was filled with bookmark-shaped inserts.He went back to the financial room, took out one of them and handed it to Yuki.

While waiting for the crack, Sena asked, "Why do we have to find out the truth before the end of today?"

Youmu stared at the screen intently, the fluorescent light was projected on his lens, like two small display screens, he tapped the keyboard quickly, and the white reflection on the lens quickly turned into a paragraph of text.

"Because ... if they don't hurry, 'they' will destroy the evidence, just like that ledger."

"It sounds like those people are well-informed."

"Well," Yuki's voice was very soft, and the speed of his flying fingers gradually slowed down, as if he was carrying a heavier and heavier burden, "very clever, they are very good at this kind of thing."

"What do you mean?" Sena sensed that there was something in Yuki's words.

"They have a chip that can obtain all information remotely at the first time. And they also have sufficient reasons and powers to intervene in any suspicious incidents.

"Because they're the police."

Yuki's hand on the keyboard stopped.Sena moved closer to the screen, which displayed the search page for the recipient of the account. A large amount of funds from various payers were remitted to the same mysterious account. Going back further, the only contact information left was a series of numbers. Mu found out the owner of the secret number through the intelligence network, who sent him an undercover mission, handed him a chip, and once guided him, and also graciously praised his immediate boss, the chief of the police department.

Everything seems to make sense, the source of the Kaitou's whereabouts is constantly leaked, the police who efficiently brought the masked show suspects to justice, the director's ambiguous attitude towards Yuki, and the escape route of the two in the first week. The police who quickly intercepted them.All the unexplainable violations and details are because the sanctioners pretending to be justice are the real behind-the-scenes.

Yuki lowered his head halfway, the lenses were covered with a blinding white light, Sena couldn't see his real expression, worried: "You Jun?"

"I'm fine," Yuki forced a smile, "it's just that the hypothesis has been verified."

"Warning, a police car has arrived at the office building, please leave as soon as possible. The best route has been planned, and there are no guards on shift yet." As soon as the AI's voice sounded, there was a piercing siren in the corridor.

"Bring the evidence first and get out of here!" Sena grabbed Yuki's hand, but Yuki didn't stand up.

There are two options in front of him, and they are still time-limited, You Mu glanced at the options in a panic, his heart was in a mess.

{Solve it with Sena; settle it by yourself}

For some reason, he, who is used to trusting Sena, wants to choose the second path at this moment. Perhaps it is because the truth has brought him too much impact, or he is afraid that the power behind the scenes will harm the Phantom Thieves, who are regarded as thorns in the eyes. Yuki I don't want to involve Sena anymore.

It was the first time since he played the game that he no longer cared about the so-called true ending or happy end, and he couldn't tell what the impulse was, but if he had a choice, he only hoped that the people in front of him would stop suffering for no reason because of him.

"Izumi-san, take this away," Yuki said, stuffing the thick dictionary into Sena's arms, and pushed the man away trying to hold his hand, "I think Rinyue-kun must know how to use it It. The previous account book is also what he wants, Linyue Jun told me."

"When did you guys talk... No, what do you want to do, Mr. You?!"

Sena realized that Yuki didn't intend to leave, and hurriedly grabbed his wrist, but was dodged by the other party.

"Thank you Quansang, our cooperation ends here. I am the police, if you don't leave, I will arrest you."

"What stupid words?" Sena's face darkened, "Do you think this kind of lame lie will fool me?"

Yuki clenched his lower lip, how could he forget how difficult Sena Izumi is, even in the virtual game world, the role of data simulation is still difficult to deal with.

Suddenly, a series of ringtones rang on the phone, and the AI ​​quickly said, "Mr. Yumu, there is an outside call from Mr. Sakuma Rinzuki."

"Eh?" Yuki was puzzled, but Sena responded quickly: "Connect!"

Yuki hadn't had time to modify Sena's authority, so the AI ​​readily followed his instructions, the phone was connected, and Rinzuki's voice came out through the receiver.

"Ose is almost done? My annoying brother really wants that key 'evidence'. Anyway, You Jun doesn't know how to deal with it, so I leave it to him. Although my brother is very incompetent, he is happy to deal with this kind of thing , It’s a win-win for both of you.”

"Rinyue-kun's elder brother?" Youmu hesitated, Sakuma Rinyue's proposal was as sudden as his call, and Youmu couldn't react for a while.

"Oh, it's the information dealer Rei Sakuma." Sena explained from the side.

"Mr. Sakuma?!" Yuki exclaimed, and Sena looked at him unhappily.

Linyue on the other end of the phone didn't seem very happy: "It's him. You Jun can't forget, right? The reason why you came to Knights at the beginning was because of your brother's recommendation. Because he said that although You Mujun is an 'undercover agent', But without the rancid smell of that group of scum, you can try to trust it."

"Hey, don't you know Mr. You's identity already, Mr. Xiong?" Seina who grasped the key said angrily.

"That kind of thing is fine, but if you don't run away, Ose, you will be arrested?"

After hanging up the phone, Sena went to shake Yuki's hand again, and to his relief, Yuki didn't shake off this time.

He tentatively asked: "Let's go together?"

You Mu looked at him, the truth came to light, and the unexpected was revealed, and the sudden turn of events made him feel a little panicked.However, even though the future is uncertain, with this person in front of him willing to hold his hand and accompany him out, everything seems nothing.

With that in mind, he held the other's hand back.

【27】

After escaping from the office building, Yuki was hugged by Sena again to feel the thrill of gliding at night. Under his eyes, there were thousands of lights like stars, but it was already early morning, and only the billboards of the commercial buildings were still on. But still magnificent.

"Mr. Xiong sent a notice just now, and Sakuma has already started to deal with this matter. He seems to have planned to expose the scandal in the police circle, and said that he will return you to the clean police station and your companions soon."

Sena dryly relayed the information dealer's words, noticing Yuki's brightened expression, his expression turned even worse.

"Does You Jun want to leave me that much?" He asked a little aggrieved.

The matter was resolved, and Yukimoto was relieved, but when he heard Sena's words, he had to face up to the future relationship between the two, and couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

"Quan Sang is the one. Soon I will resume my status as a police officer. Is it okay for the strange thief to stay with the police?"

"You Jun can continue to be my hacker."

"Impossible." You Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.This kind of thing, with the little dark thoughts in his heart, is enough to tease it as a joke once or twice. They both understand that this is an impossible future, and both sides have identities and positions that cannot be abandoned.Even if they lived side by side by accident in the past, they will not continue to maintain a false relationship with one eye closed after everything is revealed.

But even if that time was full of concealment and lies, it wasn't all hypocrisy.It is precisely because we can no longer be together like this in the future that we must cherish this moment and express our hearts.

Yuki thought, and couldn't help tightening the arms around Sena.Feeling the dependence of the person in her arms, Sena's tone became gentle: "Is there any place you want to go, Mr. You?"

"Well," Yuki pretended to be contemplative, "I want to go to the amusement park again."

Because it was late at night, the amusement park had already been closed, and the Ferris wheel naturally stopped.But these are nothing to the combination of strange thief and hacker.Sena unlocked the lock, Yuki started the machine, and the Ferris wheel slowly turned, the huge wheel now belonged only to the two of them.

Before entering the car, they tacitly turned off the wireless headset and communicator, only the mobile phone was still on.

The round airtight box carrying the two of them rose slowly, and the night scene that had been hidden behind the woods slowly emerged from the horizon. The dotted neon lights were a little sparse and lonely, but also had a sense of tranquil beauty.Yuki took a peek at Sena, who was seriously looking at the streetscape, perhaps checking if some neon lights were still on.

He pretended to be casual and asked, "What is Quan Sang looking at?"

"Night scene," Sena said succinctly, "If you see something good, tell You Jun."

Yuki pressed the phone a few times calmly, and the AI ​​hacked into the skyscraper's light boards according to the instructions he had written in advance, and remotely controlled some of the extinguished advertising lights to turn on again.

"Quan Sang," he said deliberately pleasantly, "I saw something good."

Sena was surprised, but still leaned close to him and looked in the direction of his fingers. Unlike the words that can only be displayed at a deliberate angle, Yuki "discovered" a huge heart-shaped pattern made of lights of different colors. The lights and shadows flicker, and there is a 3D effect, which is very spectacular.

"Did you have this before?" Sena murmured in a low voice, Yuki heard him, he suppressed a smile, thinking about how to continue this topic in a serious way.

Just as he was thinking, the AI ​​asked without reading the air: "Do you want to start the second stage?"

"What second stage?" Sena was at a loss.Because he still has a higher authority, the AI ​​immediately gave the answer: "The second stage of the confession program written by Mr. Yumu."

"Shut up!" Yuki jumped up from his seat in embarrassment and annoyance, but his large-scale protest action still couldn't undo what AI said, Sena looked at him thoughtfully, with a sly smile.

Pig teammates who eat inside and out!Yuki complained angrily in his heart, as soon as he saw Sena Izumi's smile, he knew that the good situation was going to be overturned.No, this time he has to stick to the initiative.

"Oh," Sena continued to say to the AI ​​with a smile, "start it."

"Not activated."

It’s a pity that You Mu spoke too late, before he finished speaking, the LEDs of the commercial buildings on the other side of the river began to shine brightly, and the light curtains of several adjacent buildings spelled out two words one after another, just on both sides of the love map lamp— —

YUU? IZUMI

Because the font of the LED is sharp and angular, Izumi looks a bit like isme at first glance.Yuki stared at the string of confessions nervously, shyness and shame came up belatedly, he even hoped that the wrong code was typed at that time, and izumi would not be so obvious.Unexpectedly, it would be so embarrassing to display it on a big screen. His face seemed to be on fire, and his glasses were almost melted. Yuki thought in a daze. dare not answer the call.It would be nice if the windows of the car could be opened. He had to blow cold air to cool his burning head.

"You Jun?"

He poked his neck and looked into the distance.

"I said, You Jun~"

The sound got closer, and he could almost feel the heat source coming up, and the warm breath was blowing over his burning eartips.

"Let my brother take a look, okay?"

Yuki turned around an angle with difficulty and compromising.His face was almost as bright as the bright red neon lights in the distance.

Sena held his hands reassuringly, making him face her.You Mu's cold hand moved restlessly in his palm, he simply pulled it up and kissed his fingertips lightly.

It worked very well, and Yuki's hand obediently stopped moving in an instant.

"Thank you Jun, this is ten thousand times better than what I want to show you."

Youmu was embarrassed by his exaggerated praise, and smiled shyly: "I know what Quansang wants to show me, this is...my return gift."

Sena froze for a moment, his surprised expression gave Yuki more courage, and his smile became frank.As if infected by his bright smile, Sena couldn't help but smile, and moved a little closer, soft gray hair touching Yuki's forehead.

"I wanted to do this last time, can I?"

He didn't say it directly, but Yuki understood what that implied.He blushed and nodded, closing his eyes.

The car rose slowly, and when it reached the highest point, the time seemed to be slowed down.The only rotating Ferris wheel disc in the amusement park is shining with colorful lights, converging into a huge colorful love heart.The car carrying the two is like a complete photo frame, freezing the silhouette of a quiet kiss in the night sky.Under the dark blue starry sky is the neon light shining with the confession of love, and the heart-shaped pattern is like a pendant in the center of the photo frame of the car, shining brightly in the narrow gap between the two.
