【Niji】Death of it

Everything has been settled, and the rest of the eyes are mostly focused on Shiwan and Mofu. Even if some people want to see how Jin, the son of the expelled princess who is about to ascend the throne, is doing, Nino also blocked his sight calmly, so Jin didn't notice the strange gaze on him.

The king's health is already very poor. For ordinary people, they still pay more attention to what kind of policies Shiwan will adopt after he succeeds to the throne, and how Mofu will protect the country and how to make ACCA go further. , more secure.

These are actually not what Nino cares about.

Whether it was decades ago or decades later, whether it was patting with the prince and daughter's family with his father or spending years with Jean, Nino only cared about one thing, and that was where he was. The only thing he did in a complicated game: guard Jinn.

Oh no, maybe it should be said, guard everything about Jean.After all, he cared about Luota as much as he did his own sister.Jean's sister is his sister, and Jean's little princess is his little princess.

Lota said the so-called "I want to marry you" when she was very young, and Nino just listened to it.Nino suddenly realized at the graduation prom that although Jean was a prince, he wanted Jean to be his queen—it was too shameful to say that.At the same time, he also understood that Luota would only be a little princess like his own, sister or even daughter.

Nino also forgot when he started holding the thought of "if only I could hug this person" to Gene.Because of his father, he almost watched Gene from childhood to adulthood, and even directly participated in Gene's life since high school—something his father never did.

The appearance of Jean still in his infancy, the appearance of Jean being carried by his mother to go shopping, the appearance of Gene flopping and falling on the lawn of the park after he learned to walk, the appearance of Jean being wrapped in a big bag when it snowed The appearance of Tuanzi going to elementary school, the appearance of Gene returning home late after being left in school for some reason, the appearance of his shadow being stretched by the street lights—it was this time that made Nino want to be with Gene idea.

But he was already big, Gene was 13 at the time and Nino was 23.Obviously, unless he can be a teacher, it is impossible to observe like a voyeur in a school.Of course, even if he entered school as a teacher, it would be difficult.

Therefore, when Gene entered high school and his father suggested that he also enroll, although Nino said "I am already 25 years old", he still had a little secret expectation and joy in his heart.Nino felt that it was worth it to be able to guard his prince at a closer distance, to comfort him when he was lost, to encounter difficulties, or even to be in danger, and to block all thorns for him.

Gene dropped his pen on the floor.Nino smiled, thinking that his prince was so cute.Since he came to Jean as a classmate and successfully became his friend, Nino began to take photos of Gene with his camera openly.

Later Gene asked: Is this job fun to do?Nino.

Nino himself had actually thought about this question many times.

At the beginning, Nino felt that he must accompany his father to do these things, and then he watched Jean's birth and growth, from a small group to a handsome boy.At some point, he suddenly understood Abend's feeling of following Princess Schnee—but maybe it was a little different.

So Nino thought about it many times afterwards.Why continue working like this?Why don't you want to leave?Why do you always get scolded by your collar but get deeper and deeper?When Gene asked, Nino answered those words unconsciously.

——It’s nothing to be happy or unhappy, and you can’t enjoy it too much, but I seem to be enjoying it already.

If his boss finds out what he's thinking... Nino smiled, then slumped on the table and pretended to be asleep.

Maybe it's not as simple as just scolding.

After all, Jean is the son of Princess Schnee.

Nino has two bosses and two tasks, but he enjoys the simplest identity of "Jean's bad friend" the most.At the same time, he needs to take those photos for work, and the act of taking pictures also makes him enjoy it very much.

Later, when the identity of the monitor was exposed for some reason, what Nino feared most was none other than Gene’s anger, accusations, and disgust—intellectually he knew that Gene would not care about these things, but emotionally, he did not. will easily disappear.

He held back for five days without looking for Gene, but Gene found him stepping on heavy snow and wrapped in thick blankets.

Nino was reluctantly relieved when it was confirmed from Jin that he didn't take these concealments or even deceptions to heart—maybe.Later, Gene confirmed his bloodline from Mofu, and when his boss agreed to tell Gene the story for so many years, Nino thought a little about what attitude he should use to tell it.

In the end, his attitude was useless, just like a bystander's retelling, so calm that he even seemed indifferent, leaving only the emotion of the story itself.It was only in high school that Nino showed a little smile, happily recalling their first encounter—for Gene, the first encounter.and accompany.

However, what Gene is most concerned about seems to be different.

Nino didn't even know whether he should be happy or sad.

Maybe Gene is a little confused because he heard this for the first time, but just as Gene and Lota can talk about their parents freely, today, as a man who is almost 40 years old, Nino has passed the confusion When helpless.In other words, his identity made him no choice to be confused and helpless.

Gene said that he had never seen him have friends, and seemed to be just looking for himself to drink, drink, drink, or buy specialty products.

It is so.

When his father was still alive, Nino and his father focused on the princess family.After his father died, Nino's focus was on Jean and Lota.

Time gradually healed the pain, and Nino was able to talk about that experience without changing his face.

He knew that Genn could understand this feeling, because he also soothed those pains from the torrent of time.

In fact, apart from time, maybe there were three other people who accompanied each other during that period.

It worked.

Nino is not a very aggressive person in nature, you can feel it from his gestures and words over the years.Both Gene and Lota found him to be approachable, peaceful, and unflappable.

Nino himself could feel the change.

As a person, after having the idea of ​​wanting to get another person, the whole world will be changed by that person.Always emphasizing age seems a bit strange, but when Nino was alone in the room, eating chocolate after chocolate, undressed and lying on the bed, watching the moonlight outside the window, it was inevitable that he would burst out laughing occasionally.

The old house is on fire. He found this description very interesting when he heard it for the first time. After turning [-], he gradually understood the truth of this sentence more and more.

Sometimes he could even feel Lotta's scrutiny, because of the way his eyes fell on Gene.

I don't know if Lota is too sharp or Jin is too dull, the person who was stared at by that kind of eyes didn't notice it, but Lota finally understood something after observing for a long time, so she found him quietly and wanted to have a talk with him.

Nino patted Lota's head, smiled and said it's okay, I'll tell you whatever you want to ask.
