Domestic Lover [Zerg]

Anze took a deep breath, he wanted to go to the study again.

Every time he reads a book, or looks at the rows of bookshelves, he can get a moment of peace in his heart. It is a magical place that makes him feel comfortable.

Anze changed into the clothes he was going out, opened the bathroom door, and slapped his stiff cheeks with rushing cold water.

"Knock Knock Knock-"

Someone knocked on the door outside, who is here?

Anze doesn't want to receive friends now, he is in a bad mood and not at peace, but he went downstairs quickly and opened the door.

Caleb was outside. He greeted Anze as usual, and when he was about to take the door to the door, he found that Anze had already changed his clothes for going out.

He found that Anze's condition seemed to be wrong, his face was very pale, and there were wet drops of water on his slender eyelashes.

Caleb frowned slightly, touched the damp hair on Anze's forehead, and asked softly, "Where are you going?"

Anze doesn't really want to see Caleb now.Originally, he wanted to go to Caleb to ask about himself... But he only guessed a little, and he didn't dare to think about it at all. He was very scared, and he didn't really want to know.

...Please, let him continue to deceive himself.

"Go to the library."

Anze was a little depressed.

Caleb thought of the experience of being driven back when he asked for an escort last time, the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and he quickly dismissed the idea of ​​accompanying him.But Anze's current state is not right, and he can't let it go.

"Do you want me to accompany you?"

Anze shook his head, he felt that Caleb was worried about him.

Caleb: "I'll wait for you at home, you can tell me if you have any unhappy things."

Anze's hand trembled slightly.

The words "waiting at home" were automatically distorted in his mind into the question that Caleb was waiting for him, and he had to face it after asking the question.

He didn't want to face it, since he had been kept in the dark for so long anyway.

"No." Anze lowered his voice: "Caleb, you go home, don't wait for me, I'm fine."

The more he did this, the more worried he became. Caleb frowned, and held Anze's hand.Anze's hands were cold, and he couldn't help trembling when touched.

The female's warm and beautiful palms were first wrapped layer by layer, and when she found that An Ze always curled up her fingers, she opened them for him, revealing the palms.

Caleb's pupils narrowed.

There are purple pinch marks on the palm of Anze's palm, obviously caused by clenching his fist hard, did Anze get any kind of stimulation?

Looking at those pinch marks, Caleb couldn't help but his heart ached. He looked seriously at Anze's somewhat sloppy eyes.

"Did something happen?"

"……No."

Anze pulled his hand out, took off the coat from the coat rack next to him, and passed by directly: "I'll go first."

Caleb's eyes dimmed, and he clearly felt that Anze must have noticed something, which is also related to the recent bugs in the game.

Recently, when I open the mall, I can’t refresh it, and many functions cannot be used. I can’t even view Anze’s notepad, and I can’t accurately observe the status.

Is Anze’s also bugged?

The group of developers must have noticed it, but it should be difficult to solve, otherwise there will be no new event at this juncture to gather players in the front row of the leaderboard.

When Anze's figure was almost gone, Caleb followed slowly.Anze is now repelling other insects from approaching, but the state makes the insects worry, and needs to see if there will be any accidents.

……

As soon as An Ze entered the study, he heard a burst of pleasant birdsong.

He took off the hat of his black coat, revealing his light chestnut hair, waved to the bookstore owner with a listless expression, and raised his eyes blankly, looking at the source of the call.

It was a beautiful garuda.

The bird was small and exquisite in size, and the bright golden feathers all over its body were extremely gorgeous. When it spread its wings, the snow-white belly feathers under its wings were even more beautiful, like strands of white snowballs.It bounced skillfully in the cage, stretched its wings occasionally, and made a few nice calls.

It is closed with an exquisite white iron cage, the bottom plate is made of wood carvings, which perfectly blends with the white iron wire above.

An Ze unknowingly walked to the birdcage on the counter, looked at it for a while, and asked, "Bird?"

The boss was not stingy with the introduction, he picked up the cage and handed it to Anze, signaling him to look at it casually, the bird was shaken a few times but it didn't panic, it looked calm.

Anze: "Isn't it afraid?"

The owner of the bookstore: "I have been used to keeping the caged ones since I was a child, and there is nothing to be afraid of."

"..."

An Ze frowned and looked at the bird.

"Doesn't it want to fly out? I've heard that some birds are trapped in cages and would rather starve to death."

"Harmful." The boss smiled indifferently: "I'm still young, I haven't even flown these wings, and they look good."

"Only birds raised in cages are so obedient. Birds that fly out are very difficult to train."

Anze looked at the bird, and lifted the cage... Are you willing to stay in the cage because you have never flown before?

"What if you let it go?"

The boss looked up indifferently, and opened his mouth and said, "He won't fly out even if you open the cage door."

"why?"

The boss handed him the key directly and motioned him to open the cage door.

Anze was a little hesitant, but he opened the door anyway. What was the beautiful garuda inside supposed to do? Seeing the cage open, he just glanced from the sidelines, as if he didn't care at all.

"A cute bird raised in a cage will not find food by itself when it flies out. It's better to stay in the cage."

Anze put his hand into the cage, wanting to tease the creatures inside a little.The Golden Wing kept hiding in the cage, and was finally kicked out. As soon as An Ze's hand left, it went in by itself.

When An Ze wanted to tease him again, the bird seemed impatient and pecked An Ze.

"hiss--"

Anze rubbed his red fingers, and thoughtfully closed the cage door again, and the bird returned to its previous state as if nothing had happened, drinking water and pecking its feathers from time to time.

"Is the breeder treating it too well?" Anze looked up at the boss, and he found that the boss was holding his head up and watching Anze teasing the bird.

"If you don't take care of it, it should go away."

The owner of the bookstore: "Well... I should go, after all, nothing is important. But..."

When the boss said this, he didn't know what he thought of, and his eyes drifted away.

"The main reason is that it doesn't want to leave, and doesn't want to change the status quo." He raised his jaw, pointed his eyes at Anze's pecked red finger: "Look, you can't even push it away."

……

Anze was silent for a moment.

After a long while, he put the cage back on the shelf and left the counter. He walked to the depths of the bookshelf, but his heart became more and more chaotic in the place where he used to feel peaceful, and the jumping gesture of the bird just now was even more lingering.

Anze walked to the corner where he met Evando before.

It was very remote there, and most of the books on display were fantasy books that I liked to read at that time. A tall book ladder was placed on the clean wooden aisle.

An Ze sat on the first step of the book ladder, and picked up a book. After a long time in a daze, he finally realized that it was the book "Brown Land" that the other party asked him to take from the shelf when he met Evando for the first time. ".

He was silent for a while, and opened it with some doubts.Why does a book with this title appear in the fantasy book area, and what is this book about?

Anze opened the book, one page, two pages, and found a bookmark in it after a while.

The material of that bookmark is very strange, it feels cold to the touch, but it is very thin, it is a gradient from black to white, and there is nothing on it.

The author has something to say: It’s time, it’s time, it’s time to dig out all the baggage I’ve buried——
