Without waiting for Gu Xing to reply, the Holy Son pointed in the direction of the storage room: "I just saw YOKAICHI there (Yokaichi, the representative pure rice shochu of Honzi Country)."
Gu Xing: "Okay, I'll find some snacks to drink with."
Holy Son: "No, just drink."
Gu Xing: "Wouldn't it be easy to get drunk that way?"
Holy Son: "If you don't want to get drunk, why are you drinking? Isn't it better to drink coffee, salt soda, or boiled water?"
Gu Xing: "..."
Cave 2: [It makes sense]
Gu Xing walked into the storage room and looked at a whole box of YOKAICHI placed in the corner. He bought it when he first moved to the basement of the Nara apartment. He planned to drink it by himself occasionally when he was feeling depressed, but he didn't expect it. Suddenly one day, there was a hole in the wall... From then on, his life became busy and fulfilling, and he often couldn't remember that he had wanted to drink alone.
Gu Xing walked to the wine box, thought for a while, and took out a bottle from it.
Just as he was about to get the wine, the voice of the Holy Son came from outside:
"Gu Xingjun, take out as much as you have, don't be stingy!"
Gu Xing: "If I can't finish the drink, do I have to pack it up and take it away?"
Holy Son: "Yes, pack it up and take it away. Next time, I'll treat you to something better."
Gu Xing: "Thank you!"
Holy Son: "You're welcome!"
Gu Xing had no choice but to put back the bottle of wine he had taken out, carry a whole box, and return to the living room.
Gu Xing put the wine box next to the coffee table in the living room, and Shengzi took out twelve bottles from it and placed them on the table. The weirdos gathered around one after another. Nobuhiko Kumada picked up the camera and unscrewed the lens cap, Yosuke picked up the clapper board, and the three split Fujinos cooperated with each other to turn on the lights. Fortunately, from the perspective of the Holy Son, the light did not change.
From the corner of his eye, Gu Xing watched the camera crew doing something weird and was a little speechless.
Holy Son: "Gu Xingjun, guess why there are twelve bottles."
Gu Xing: "I can't guess, is it related to your birthday?"
Seiko: "Twelve months have passed since the tragedy in the basement of the Nara apartment. This time may not be long or short, but a lot of things have happened."
Gu Xing: "Yes, it's been a year."
It suddenly occurred to him that, in this way, it had been twelve full months since he and the Holy Son met.
He found a wine glass from the drawer of the coffee table and filled it for both of them:
"Let's have a drink first, Gu Xingjun, so that the two of us can still live well in this terrifying and bizarre world!"
Glancing at the bloody chain on the Holy Son's chest, Gu Xing raised his wine glass, touched it with the Holy Son's, and drank it all in one gulp.
Shengzi: "I recently investigated a weirdo named Yingzi. I wonder if Gu Xingjun has heard of it."
Gu Xing nodded.
Shengzi: "Yingzi's rule is to chop the man who cheated on him into two pieces," she said, making a vertical cracking motion with her right hand in mid-air, "or, split into more parts, and everyone will be cracked in the back. It has a flat shape like a wall and is covered with bloodshot eyes. Do you think she is scary?"
Out of the corner of his eye, Gu Xing looked at Yingzi, who was sitting at the side with her chin in her hands looking at the Holy Son, and replied: "It's really scary."
Shengzi: "The weird thing is, when I was investigating this case, I was thinking, it would be great if Yingzi could chop Gu Xingjun into two parts."
Gu Xing: "Uh, why?"
Shengzi: "In this way, one of Gu Xingjun can concentrate on doing what he wants to do, and the other Gu Xingjun can be left to me. Unfortunately, Gu Xingjun should have no experience of cheating, and Yingzi will certainly not find you."
Gu Xing: "Your idea is more terrifying than Yingzi herself."
The Holy Son filled the two glasses of wine again: "This glass is for us to live happily, smoothly, and peacefully in this ridiculous world. Let's drink a glass of wine full of hope and longing."
Gu Xing clinked glasses with her and drank.
Holy Son: "Don't you want to ask why you want Gu Xingjun to stay with me?"
Gu Xing: "It must be the same reason for moving out of the Shibuya apartment with you."
Holy Son: "My guess is correct. Gu Xingjun is indeed not a piece of wood, but he is deliberately pretending not to understand."
Gu Xing remained silent.
The Holy Son filled the wine again and picked it up: "Third glass, a toast to the rare and pure friendship between me and Gu Xingjun."
Gu Xing: "I think it's better to go a little slower, otherwise, you will get drunk soon."
The Holy Son drank it all in one gulp: "I am still somewhat sure of my own drinking capacity."
Gu Xing had no choice but to drink it with her.
Holy Son: "I want to ask you, am I not beautiful enough?"
When he said this, the Holy Son raised his face stubbornly and looked at Gu Xing. It had been some time since she last had her hair cut short, and her black hair was at half-length, just hanging down her shoulders. She had a firm look and resolute eyes, and her whole person had a cooler aura than when Gu Xing first met her.
Gu Xing: "Beautiful, not only beautiful, you are a bit too beautiful. I'm afraid the female stars on TV will feel ashamed when they see you." Gu Xing's words are by no means an unconscionable compliment. Such a cold saint I can't bear such unstinting praise.
"Gene Era"
Holy Son: "Then, does it mean that I have a bad personality, a bad temper, a bad way of dealing with others, and that no one should treat me well?"
Gu Xing: "On the contrary, each of us likes to work with you. Anda Jun also told me so."
The Holy Son filled the wine again: "The fourth cup, let's drink to open our hearts and be honest with each other tonight!"
Gu Xing: "..."
They drank it together.
Holy Son: "Since I am pretty good-looking, have a good personality, have a good temper, and behave in a decent way, why does Mr. Gu Xing always see me like a savage beast?"
Gu Xing: "I..."
Holy Son: "I know you are avoiding me... Well, in that case, I am not that shameless and have to stay by your side. Yes, that's why I moved out of the Shibuya apartment .”
Gu Xing: "To be honest, I wanted to alienate you at that time."
Holy Son: "Are you afraid that I will pester you endlessly?"
Gu Xing: "I'm used to being lonely. It's more comfortable to live alone."
Shengzi poured a glass of wine without inviting Gu Xing, and drank it alone. "After leaving Shibuya Apartment, I once thought that from now on, I must try my best to forget Gu Xingjun, and try my best to have nothing to do with you, and never have anything to do with you again." Sorry to bother you, but after I left, I understood my own feelings better and why Gu Xingjun wanted to alienate me."
Gu Xing looked at the Holy Son in surprise. Holy Son: "It's not like what Gu Xingjun said. You are used to being lonely and like to live alone. It's also not that you are tired of me and are afraid that I will pester you endlessly. But -"
As the Holy Son spoke, he leaned into Gu Xing's ear and whispered, "It's because you have a secret... I know your secret."
