In the past few days, I've been asking Itachi what he remembered, but he didn't tell me.In the end, I couldn't hold back anymore, and simply asked directly: "Have you thought of a way to go back?"

"Not yet." He shook his head, then looked at me seriously and said, "If I think of a way to go back, I will tell you."

"Yes...is it?"

"So you don't have to worry about me leaving without saying goodbye."

"..."

I was a little embarrassed to be seen through my mind by him, so I had no choice but to stop talking.Sometimes I suspect that he knows all my thoughts at all, and naturally those loves can't be hidden from him.

Later, I heard from boys I knew that when a girl likes a boy, she can't hide it from others, let alone the boy himself.

On the Lantern Festival, instead of going to my grandpa's house with my parents, I went to the Lantern Festival with Itachi.The snow fell intermittently for many days, and it was extremely cold outside. I had the courage to go out only when I was well armed.Itachi was wearing the padded jacket his mother gave him. Although the padded jacket was bulky, it didn't affect his handsomeness in the slightest.Before going out, I stared at his side face in a daze for a long time, thinking how could he have such a handsome face, so perfect that he didn't belong to this world.It was only later that I realized that he really did not belong to this world.

There is an ancient street in the city, and the annual lantern festival is held on that street.Before I walked in, I could see from a distance that the whole street was illuminated by colorful lanterns. There were lantern riddles guessers, candy sellers, and toy lantern stalls everywhere. It was a prosperous scene.I jumped into the crowd happily, but I got off to a bad start and fell down after just a few steps.The ground was slippery and the snow had frozen into ice.

I got up and patted my clothes, I was so embarrassed that I died.I wondered why I was always reckless and embarrassed in front of him.

"Does it hurt from the fall?" Itachi asked me.

"It's okay..." I smiled awkwardly.

Itachi smiled and held out his hand to grab me.

eh eh eh?

My mind went blank for a moment, and then my face turned red all of a sudden.

"There are many people, and the road is slippery." Itachi explained.

"Yes... ah." I replied.

Itachi pulled me forward, there were many people, so I could only move forward slowly.At this time, I regretted why I had to wear such thick cotton gloves before going out.It was so thick that I couldn't feel the warmth of his palm at all.

After thinking for a long time, I broke away from his hand, took off the glove, and held his hand again.

He stopped and looked at me suspiciously.

"...I suddenly feel so hot, haha." I scratched my head with the other hand, trying to look relaxed.

"Oh." He nodded and said nothing.

I used to buy a lot of gadgets every time I went to the Lantern Festival, but this time I didn’t buy anything. I just followed Itachi obediently and enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

Because I'm afraid that if I stop to look at other things, he will let go of my hand TAT

At nine o'clock, fireworks started to go off in the square, and there was a sea of ​​people. Itachi and I couldn't get in, so we had to watch from a distance.Thousands of flowers bloom in the dark blue night sky, enchanting and gorgeous.The crowd cheers.The atmosphere was just right.

Maybe the fireworks at night are too gorgeous.Maybe the palm is warm enough.At that moment, I felt that my love could no longer be hidden.it's time.

I had to tell him, whether or not he would go, and whether or not he would be frightened.I can only tell him.

I took a deep breath and said—

"Itachi, I like you."

I looked at the sky, and another beautiful flower bloomed, and it was fleeting. I closed my eyes and let the shadow of the flower bloom again in the darkness.

"Oh." He responded.

It seemed to be the expected answer, and a bitter smile spread from the corner of my lips.

I turned my head to look at him, he looked at the distant sky, his eyes were peaceful, and the brilliance of fireworks shone in his eyes.

"I like you." I said it again somehow.

He finally looked down at me, and after a long silence, he said, "I see."

After that, I didn't speak again, watched the fireworks show quietly, and then followed him home quietly.Fortunately, he didn't let go of my hand, the cold wind was howling, and the back of my hand was stinging from the wind, but I still couldn't bear to let go of the warmth in my palm.

From just now to now, I have been a little listless, and I can't get up the energy to walk, so I walk very slowly.It was rare that he accommodated me and slowed down his pace.

"Xiao Wu." He suddenly called my name.

"Huh?" I looked up at him.

He paused for a moment, as if thinking.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Little Five." Finally he said, "A few days ago, I finally remembered why I exterminated my family in the first place."

I didn't expect him to say this, I was surprised and nervous, and I clenched my hands unconsciously.I didn't speak, just waited quietly for him to finish.

"The Uchiha clan and Konoha have had grievances for a long time, so I won't go into details."

"Although I am the eldest son of the Uchiha clan, I cannot agree with the Uchiha clan's approach."

"When I was 13 years old, I received an order from Konoha's superiors to cleanse the Uchiha clan."

"After that, as you can see."

"Konoha's order?" I was surprised, "Why...why?"

"Because the Uchiha clan attempted to rebel." He replied calmly.

"So you...you..."

"I killed them myself." Although there was no expression on his face, I always felt that his eyes were empty of despair. "The mutiny is bound to cause a bloody storm. Konoha can't stand that kind of torment anymore."

"So the truth is like this." I no longer know what expression I have.The amount of information is too much, and I can't accept it for a while.

Everything is completely different from my imagination.I thought that according to the consistent peeing of shonen manga, he just had to take the blame for some reasons.But I didn't expect that he really did all this.

After getting in touch these days, I clearly know how gentle he is.Compassionate, loving peace.But such a gentle person has done such a thing that is against the laws of nature and outrageous in the eyes of the world.Killing father and mother, exterminating the tribe.From the perspective of common sense, this is something that only a dehumanized person can do, but this thing came from such a gentle hand.

Very ironic.

"Now you understand what kind of person I am." He smiled wryly.

"Hmm." I nodded.

He didn't say anything, let go of my hand and walked forward alone.

I was immersed in astonishment, and it took me a long time to react, so I quickly stepped forward to catch up with his pace, but I didn't want the road to be too slippery and fell again.After hearing the sound, he turned around and helped me up.

This time the fall was even more painful than the last time, even his face was covered with snow, and he was extremely embarrassed.

"Why so careless." He took out a tissue to help me wipe off the stains on my face.

He is such a gentle person.

"Does it hurt?" He helped me up without letting go, and helped me walk forward step by step.

He is such a gentle person.

A faint light shone in his eyes, his thick black eyelashes fluttered occasionally, and faint shadows floated on his face.

He is such a gentle person.

My nose is so sore, it's hard for me to imagine how such a gentle person would feel when he did such a cruel thing.

"Are you crying?" After a while, he realized that something was wrong with me.

"I didn't." As soon as I finished speaking, hot tears fell from my eyes.

"Okay. As you can see, I'm crying again." I had to admit it.

"What's the matter, is it because of the pain from the fall?" He asked me.

"No." I shook my head.

"That is?."

"I love you, Itachi." I said it again.

He froze, I had never seen him so surprised, his eyes widened.He looks like a young man at last.

"Why?" he asked me.

"What why?" I don't understand.

"Since you already know what kind of person I am, why...you still like me."

"Is there... a relationship between this?"

"You shouldn't like a vicious person." He admonished me.

"What kind of person I want to like is my own business. There is nothing in this world that I can't like." I looked up at him, "And you are not evil."

"..."

"Killing one's father and one's mother appears to be heinous on the surface. But what if one's parents threaten the safety of the motherland? At this time, should one choose righteousness or choose filial piety?" I started the nonsense mode, "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both. Mencius didn't Do you say you want to give up your life for righteousness? It can be seen that in the face of righteousness, everything can be sacrificed."

"So, if one day you find out that your parents are collaborating with the enemy and treason, you will kill them yourself?" Itachi asked me back.

"I...I..." I stammered, not knowing how to answer.If there is such a situation, I... I'm afraid I can't do it.I would rather die. I have always been weak and cannot face that kind of situation.

"You are not me, and few people in the world will be like me." Itachi smiled wryly, "The moment I killed them, I had already fallen into the devil's way."

"No..." I wanted to say something, but found that I couldn't say anything, I could only repeat over and over again, "No, it's not like this."

That night, instead of going back to the new house with Itachi, I went home.

My brother sneered at me: "Finally you know how to go home?"

I was not in the mood to joke with him, so I just went back to the room and got into bed without even taking a shower.No sleep, just a person with open eyes looking at the ceiling.

Not long after, my brother opened the door and came in.

"Lin Shaoyu, get up." He kicked my leg, "Tell me what happened."

"It's nothing." Normally, I jumped up and ran after him, but now I have no strength at all, and I didn't move.

"Look at your distraught look..." My brother approached me with a serious expression, "Did that kid dump you?"

"Didn't I say that he is not my boyfriend?" I was helpless.

Brother shrugged.

"I confessed to him tonight, though," I said.

"Looking at you, I'm afraid he rejected you." The elder brother showed a look of contempt.

"Hmm." I smiled weakly. "Okay, you can laugh at me as much as you want."

"Why should I laugh at you." The elder brother sat down and rolled up his sleeves, "I'll deal with him now."

"What are you doing?" I thumped his back, "I'm not RMB, why do people have to like me."

Besides, I still don't know who will punish whom, I said in my heart.
