"Shutten, it's time!"

"I'll be fine right away, you need to tune down the network first."

Shuten put the washed dishes into the cabinet, then wiped his hands, and returned to the sofa with two glasses of water.Ibaraki put the computer on his lap, was talking to someone with his earphones on, and gave him an ok gesture.

Unknowingly, the manga has been serialized for several months, and the booklet will be officially released in a few days. The team in Dapinganjing knows the truth of striking while the iron is hot, and dragged the two authors to promote it. However, neither of them is willing to show up. I can only do a reader interview in the form of voice activities.Ibaraki seemed very happy about this, he bought a bunch of snacks early and ran to Shuten’s house to poke them, not like his partner at an event with him, but like a fan who came to join in the fun—since the serious “reconciliation” "After that one time, the atmosphere between them became a bit delicate. Ibaraki likes to find excuses to run to Jiuten. Jiuten can see it, but he doesn't expose it, and chases him away with a sullen face every time. So he went with him.Jiu Tun has already decided to give Ibaraki some more time, and he doesn't want to think about the rest for the time being.

A few minutes before the event started, Ibaraki took off one earphone and took a drink from the cup.

"What laughing?"

Jiu Tun asked casually.

"It's the first time we face readers together, it's really exciting!"

Ibaraki rubbed his hands unconsciously, looking so drunk that he wanted to laugh.

"Aren't you afraid that readers will ask some questions that will make you uncomfortable?"

"I have nothing to be afraid of, the original author has to be careful."

Ibaraki hummed and looked at the screen. There were more and more people online on the channel, and the host of the mountain rabbit was also in place. The two watched the number in the lower right corner of the computer screen slowly approaching the hour, and then the music sounded in the earphones. The interview The activity has officially started.

"...Okay, then the next thing is the focus of today's activities!" After introducing the works, Shantu said cheerfully: "Everyone knows that the parents who you talk about every day are the two The author and teacher are all in this channel now, so we will open the grabbing later, and the readers who grab it can ask the teachers any question! Each teacher has to answer ten questions, and you can ask any questions you want!" She warned again maliciously.

Gongping immediately exploded. After Shantu explained the rules, he asked with a smile, "Which one of the two teachers will come first~"

"Let's go first," Ibaraki cleared his throat and switched on the mic, winking at Shuten.

"Okay, okay, students who want to ask questions, please prepare to use your hand speed! Three, two, one...Okay! Ask this 'Song of the Great River' to ask questions!"

"Hi teacher, I am a fan of "Dajiangshan" and I am also learning to draw," said a boy who was a little nervous, "I want to ask you any advice for newcomers who want to step into the comics industry? ?”

"Oh, it's such a strict question from the beginning."

Ibaraki laughed, and Jiu Tun couldn't help laughing at the "Su Su Su" and "Ba Zong Ba Zong" on the public screen.

"Then I'll just talk about it briefly. In a word, draw, draw more, and keep drawing." Ibaraki replied, "There are already too many outstanding people in this industry, and those who are not outstanding can only be dragged away forever." Walk with your nose, if you don’t want to crawl at the feet of others but want to control the direction of your own progress, you must have the awareness to pay the price for becoming stronger.”

...That's the truth, but it sounds weird no matter how you hear it.

"The teacher is right! Effort is also a very important part~" Shan Fang hurriedly looked at the right time to show off his cuteness, "Okay, then get ready for the next round!"

The next few rounds were filled with easy questions such as "Does the teacher have a pet?" "Which of my favorite works?" The room was filled with the atmosphere of a middle school classroom for a while, and Jiu Tun was about to die laughing beside him.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah teacher I am your calf hair Teacher, when you didn't cooperate before, you often reposted novels, you should be a fan of this book, how does it feel to cooperate with a favorite author?"

Ibaraki's eyes lit up, he straightened his back and cleared his throat.

"You're asking a good question! I'm not so much a book fan, but a personal fan of Teacher Lie Yan! If you want to know more about his advantages, I can talk about it for three days and three nights... ow!"

Ibaraki interrupted his speech, touched his waist and looked at Shuten accusingly, Jiuten slowly withdrew his hand, silently gave him a mouthful: restraint.

Ibaraki had no choice but to continue reluctantly: "...Anyway, I'm in the same company as the teacher, but I haven't had any contact with it before. At that time, I thought the teacher was probably a very cold and difficult person... Hey, this is really good. You can't blame me! As far as his usual style of painting is concerned, you all know it, right?"

A piece of "233333333" floated across the public screen.

"Later, because of cooperation and personal friendship, I found out that the teacher is very handsome and has a cool personality. He knows a lot of things and seems to know everything. Moreover, although he always has a straight face and a cold look, he is actually a very nice person... ..." Ibaraki clasped his hands unconsciously and propped his chin, "How can I put it this way, being with such a powerful person makes my blood boil every day, even though the field is different, I still can't help but want to compete with him... On the creative level, I just want to stand side by side with him, and hope that the things I draw can well convey the stories he wrote and match him, which is probably the feeling.”

After Ibaraki finished speaking, he turned off the microphone, turned his head to look at Shuten as if he had noticed something, and asked a little doubtfully, "Why, is there something on my face?"

"...No, nothing."

Shuten answered reflexively.

Ibaraki wiped his face dubiously, then turned back to continue answering questions.Shuten leaned on the sofa, watching Ibaraki's focused profile.

No matter how many times I face such sincere words, there will always be a moment of disorder in my heartbeat.

The ten questions quickly passed, and as soon as Ibaraki was free, he immediately shrank back with his computer in his arms, comfortably pillowed on the sofa cushions, opened a box of biscuits and watched the excitement-he really hit the mark, and the readers of Shuten were very dissatisfied. You are welcome, these are questions about the background of the original work and the details of the story. Some even Shuten himself didn't think about it that deeply, so I have to lament that everyone's brains are too big.

"However, what does the teacher think of the relationship between the two male protagonists in your novel?" the sixth reader asked.

Jiuten was not surprised by this, but had a feeling of "finally here". At the same time, he noticed that Ibaraki's fingers had been stuck in the biscuit bag for a long time, and he was probably pricking up his ears waiting to hear his answer.

Alcohol wanted to laugh a little.

"What do you think?" he asked the reader.

"...No, unusual."

The little girl obviously didn't expect that he would throw the ball back directly, and held back for a long time before she could say four words.

"That's it." Shuten replied lightly.

Gongping immediately exploded again.

"What exactly does that mean? Did the teacher, didn't he have a position for their relationship in his heart?"

"It doesn't matter how I position it, what matters is what you read from it." Jiu Tun said slowly, "A story, no matter what it looks like in the author's mind at the beginning, will not be completely controlled by the author after it develops, so a certain To some extent, we are just porters of the story, and you are the ones who finally read it and get some feeling from it—" I caught a glimpse of Ibaraki's slightly stiff expression from the corner of his eyes, and turned the topic slowly, " ——Of course, if you must know my thoughts, then I can only say, yes, as you think, they are very important to each other, which cannot be summed up in a simple word.”

Ibaraki's tense side face softened visibly, Shuten withdrew his gaze calmly and turned to look at the screen.

The little reader who asked the question was speechless, and a big discussion erupted on the public screen. Shan Fang took the opportunity to take him down, and the chat window in the lower right corner popped up at some point, with a very familiar avatar.

"Okay, it seems that you are not completely hopeless."

Just looking at the screen, Jiu Tun could imagine that Ootengu must be sitting in front of the computer with a stone face.

"What, you guys are listening," he typed, "Do you want to come up and share a few questions for my uncle?"

"I think you've coped well. It's no different from saying nothing."

Jiu Tun snorted coldly, and refocused his mind on the activity.

"Next is the last question~ let's see who will get the last chance? Everyone, get ready, listen to my countdown, three, two, one—"

At the end of the question-and-answer session, Shuten Etsune was a little tired, but Ibaraki didn't seem to be listening, he was biting a biscuit stick and was concentrating on tinkering with something.

It feels like there is nothing more to ask... right?

Jiu Tun was half-closed his eyes and distracted, Shantu's grinning voice sounded in time: "This 'unlicensed driving' classmate, what good questions did you prepare for the Lie Yan teacher exam—no wheat? Then just type and ask, it's okay— —Come on, let's take a look at this classmate's question, um... what is the ideal partner of Teacher Lie Yan?"

Jiu Tun suddenly opened his eyes, isn't that the familiar ID on the screen?

He didn't have time to think, and immediately looked at Ibaraki, and Ibaraki just happened to look in this direction, with a smile in his eyes that he didn't hide, so he collided with Jiu Tun.

Ibaraki was startled, and slowly shifted the computer screen a few degrees with his hands, turning his back to Jiu Tun. This little trick was all seen by Jiu Tun and became the best evidence.

"Ideal significant other"?Jiu Tun thought, how ironic, why is this person asking such a question?He already didn't have any expectations for the other half. It was this guy who broke into his life without authorization and caused so much trouble for him. Maybe he shouldn't have responded to him from the very beginning... But if he started from the beginning... Next, go back to that time, I'm afraid I will still be moved, and then continue to pamper this guy.Why this guy?This serious, dull, distracting idiot... what the hell is he thinking?

"Teacher? Do you need to think for so long?"

The urging voice of the mountain rabbit sounded.

Jiu Tun was agitated for a while, he turned on the microphone and said:

"It would be nice if we could raise hamsters together."

This was an answer that couldn't be more perfunctory, but anyway, the event was about to end, and no one could say anything to him, so he just took off his earphones, turned off the computer, turned to Ibaraki, and asked him bluntly: "Do you still want to answer?" what do you know?"

--------------------------------

"What else do you want to know?"

When Jiu Tun asked this sentence, Ibaraki's heart thumped.

"What?" He closed the event page and asked Jiu Tun hahaha, "Why did you ask me this suddenly..."

Jiu Tun just looked at him, seemed to be thinking about something irritably, and then made up his mind: "...you asked the last question just now."

Ibaraki felt his smile and strength flow out of his body together.

"……how do you know?"

A terrible guess emerged in his mind, and before he had time to ask, Shuten directly shattered his fantasy and turned that guess into reality:

"I know your fan ID, yes."

Izuku didn't know what to say for a moment.Jiu Tun knew that he drew doujin, and it seemed that he had known it for a long time, which made him a little confused, and he felt that it was reasonable: Jiu Tun is so powerful and sensitive, and he has always been the one who controls the situation. What can he do? Can you hide it from him?So Ibaraki didn't say anything, and didn't ask Shuten why he knew, he just sat there, as if ten thousand crows were croaking in his head.He began to regret asking that question. Originally, he just wanted to experience the event as a fan on a whim. Somehow, his brain became hot, and when he came back to his senses, it turned into the situation before him.Thinking about it carefully, he didn't really have to ask that question, or if he had asked something else, maybe it wouldn't be so embarrassing now, not to mention that Jiu Tun didn't even have a decent answer... In various senses, this A wave really suffered a big loss.

Ibaraki was thinking wildly, and then felt a pat on the shoulder, he came back to his senses, and found that Shuten was watching him with a complicated expression.

"...Although it's not a big deal, it's my fault for not telling you. I just think that maybe, how should I put it, you don't want me to know," he said slowly, "...tsk, such a thing , Let me tell you one more thing, the fanfiction you have been chasing is written by me."

Before Ibaraki could get out of the chaos in front of him, he was attacked by a bigger and more inexplicable chaos.

"... Mrs. Passerby?"

he asked in disbelief.

Shuten turned his eyes away from Ibaraki, and answered "Yes" in a rough voice.

Izuku was completely speechless.His painting of R18 fans was discovered by his father, who not only didn’t blame him, but also admitted that he was also engaged in secondary creations... The outdoor weather was sunny, and the interior was clean and quiet, but Ibaraki felt that he was already in the eye of the storm. If you move a little, you will be swept into the messy wind, and you will be torn to pieces.

"Hey, you bastard, stop talking!"

Shuten's voice sounded a little tense.

My best friend is right, Ibaraki thought, it's not a big deal, there's nothing to be nervous about, and now everyone's evened out, no one can laugh at each other, but what should I say at this time?It doesn't matter, whether you should say something or not, you have to say something, quickly say something, say...

"No wonder you haven't updated for so long."

He blurted out.

Jiu Tun looked like he had seen a ghost during the day.

"Hasn't updated for so long?" He repeated dryly, "This is your focus?"

Ibaraki also reacted, and was so ashamed that he wanted to get under the sofa immediately.

"This, isn't this the truth?" He bit the bullet and replied.

"..." Jiu Tun was laughed angrily by him, "Aren't you too? You can figure out how long you haven't updated, so you have the nerve to talk about me?"

"We're busy! What can we do!" Ibaraki stiffened instead, "How can fishing be delayed!"

They stared wide-eyed and small-eyed for a long time, but Jiu Tun was defeated first and sighed.

"Don't you have any other ideas?" he asked.

"...What should I think?" Ibaraki said, "Actually, thinking about it now, that article is too similar to the original in every sense, but I didn't think about it at all. When you say it, I think it makes sense It should be..." He relaxed and muttered, "Actually, it's not bad, I like you all, and it's not bad."

Jiu Tun's eyes changed.

"You say it again?"

"I said that's fine..."

"The last sentence."

"I like you all?"

Ibaraki felt the hand on his shoulder get stronger.

"You bastard, what are you thinking," Jiu Tun said softly, "You keep saying things like this, and people don't know what to do with you...Although I know it, you probably don't have anything else on your mind. Something is wrong, I asked that question because I wanted to see my uncle get embarrassed. But..."

He pursed his lips and shook his head.

"Forget it, don't say such things in the future."

... what kind of words?

Ibaraki felt that he was about to fall into chaos again, but Shuten had already stepped back, he felt a lightness on his shoulders, it was the other party's hand back, and the warm body temperature was no longer transmitted to the skin through the clothes.

Ibaraki felt lost for no reason, and before his brain had time to guide him how to deal with this sense of loss, he had instinctively held Shuten's leaving hand.

"...Don't say what kind of words anymore? I don't understand, I've always been like this, why do you feel troubled?"

Jiu Tun paused, and looked up at him, his purple eyes were dim.

"I wanted to give you more time, but you really didn't realize it at all..." He approached Ibaraki, his voice sounded very irritable: "Your so-called liking is just trouble for me."

"why?"

"Because what I want is different from what you think."

Ibaraki still wanted to say something, but Shuten was already very close to him, a pair of sharp eyes locked on him firmly, he was frightened by that sight, and he couldn't move like a prey being stared at.It would be fine if it was just like that, but in this tense air, he felt his heartbeat start to speed up: it was too close, and if he moved forward a little bit, he would bump into the other person's nose, he and his idol, Friend, the one he had his whole heart on seemed never so close, the one he'd been chasing for a long time, but never expected to fill the other's world, because people like Shuten-douji , there should be a longer journey to go, more things to conquer, all he can do is to do his best to accompany the other party.And this person is only looking at him at this moment, with nothing but him in his eyes, it seems that the whole world has become irrelevant at this moment.It felt like a secret wish had suddenly been fulfilled.So he found that all those emotions he had never experienced originally pointed to the same explanation: since a long time ago, his heart has been out of his control.

"I can also raise hamsters with you."

Ibaraki uttered a sentence without thinking.

"That's different—"

Jiu Tun suddenly stopped.

A suspicious look appeared on his face: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Izuku nodded.He has always been generous in expressing his thoughts, but at this moment he feels that the language is weak, and he can only hope that Jiu Tun can understand his thoughts from the silence—but how difficult it must be, this is what he is least good at—and Jiu Tun Tun was still scrutinizing him, reading his obedience like a page in a book.I don't know what Shuten read, but he finally made a movement: he raised an arm, walked past Ibaraki cautiously, cut through the air, and touched Ibaraki's back, first with his fingertips, then with his entire palm Paste it all up and take him into his arms.Ibaraki rested his head on Shuten's shoulder, and his whole body was properly surrounded by the other's warm breath. He couldn't help letting out a very light sigh. Obviously Shuten caught this subtle breath sound, because his other arm He quickly tightened his arms around Ibaraki's waist, and now Ibaraki was completely trapped in Jiu Tun's arms, hugged by the strong arms that he had praised countless times, he felt at ease, but at the same time felt uncomfortable. enough.

He turned his neck slightly, looked at Jiu Tun, and Jiu Tun also looked down at him, they knew each other well, this time was not a proof of friendship, and they couldn't fool around with jokes anymore.Ibaraki still didn't speak, just looked at Shuten, looking at his longing eyes reflected in those eyes.

That's it, just do it... Bind me, dominate me, make me an integral part of you, and fill your loneliness with me.

And the kiss fell just as he expected.
