Chapter 65 Airship
Chapter 65 Airship
The first hour was spent in peace, the silence of the room was only broken by the sound of two men turning the pages of books, but Kurapika had difficulty concentrating on the contents of the book.Things were slowly derailing, and he didn't know what to do, and it had nothing to do with being in disguise ----- Kurapika wasn't bothered by it at all, he had been before when he was catching the man sitting across the table Through skirts, so dressing up in womenswear has struck him as nothing special so far.
No, when Kuroro tried to touch him last night, there was a strong and strange feeling creeping through Kurapika's head, and the boy spent all his time analyzing that strange thing, but he didn't understand what he meant What should he think about this, he just knew that he was frightened, and Kurapika was not a person who was easily frightened.
After all kinds of things happened, the boy found that his eyes moved to Kuroro unexpectedly, just like now, Kurapika glanced at the leader spider sitting opposite him with blue eyes through a book.Kurapika knew that Kuroro must have sensed his gaze, but the man didn't comment, which the boy was grateful for.
Kuroro's face was expressionless, if it weren't for his eyes moving with the movement of reading a book, he would look more like a wax figure than a human being.In Kuroro's hand was a book bound in leather, written by a Gardu tribe, and the title of the book was displayed in gold letters on the cover.Kurapika had read this book before, it was informative, and the boy enjoyed reading it, but it was kind of weird.
Kuroro looked at Kurapika, as if he had just noticed the boy's gaze: "I'm almost finishing this book, if you're interested, I can lend it to you."
Kurapika shook his head, "I've seen it before."
Kuroro tilted his head and said, "Then why are you staring at the title as if you want to understand the content of this book?"
Kurapika shrugged slightly and raised the book in his hand.
In the eyes of the boy, this was the best answer. He didn't know why he was staring at the book in Kuroro's hand, and he didn't want to think about the reason.He tried to continue looking where he left off, but Kuroro was staring at him, obviously speculating on what was going on in Kurapika's mind.
Kurapika sighed, he glanced at the page number before closing the book, in order to turn back to this page later, but it is very likely that he will not be able to concentrate on reading in the near future.Kurapika put the book on the table. "I liked that book," he said, with a thoughtful look on his face. "I really liked it. I found it fascinating."
"It is." Kuroro agreed, "I know roughly how the Gardus built forts around the walls, but I don't know the details."
Kurapika nodded, "Yeah, I really enjoyed reading that part too." He found himself answering Kuroro's words with a smile, and the boy immediately withdrew his expression: "It's like, like... Kurapika continued after a while, "I didn't mean to say Gardu's fortress, but the truth is..." He paused, trying to think of the right words: "The truth is that we have a lot in common .”
Kurapika rubbed his brow with his thumb to distract. "I was thinking if under better circumstances we could be..." The boy paused again, but this time, he couldn't think of better words to say. Expressed it, so he just shrugged.
"Friend?" Kuroro suggested.
Kurapika made a face. He didn't even like the pronunciation of "friend": "It sounds wrong even if you just say it," he said exasperatedly.
If he was expecting a rebuttal from Kuroro, Kurapika must have been disappointed, because the man was smiling softly. "But," he said when the laughter subsided, "our relationship is not It's just as simple as friends."
Kurapika's eyes snapped open, and he felt a rush of heat rushing up his cheeks, "If you dare to keep thinking about it..." he warned, his tone threatening despite his blushing.
"Why not?" Kuroro asked, and looking amused, he closed the book as well and placed it on the table in front of him.Kuroro stared directly at Kurapika's blue eyes with those big, black eyes, and being stared at by those eyes, Kurapika suddenly felt his heartbeat speed up, and the speed of the heartbeat became faster and faster these days. The hair was common, and the boy refused to think about what it meant.
The head spider raised his hand, and Kurapika almost jerked back as he brushed his hair behind his ear, and it was a soft, intimate gesture -- bad, very, very bad.Kurapika's eyes were fixed on the cover of the book, he couldn't raise his head to look at Kuroro, his heart was pounding like a pounding on his heart.
"Why not?" Kuroro repeated. "It's true."
Kurapika didn't want to ask Kuroro, what he thought about the relationship between the two of them.Whatever Kuroro's answer was, he didn't think he would accept it.
"It's nothing." Kurapika said stubbornly.
"Is that so?" Kuroro said with a smile, his eyebrows raised high. "You mean, would you sleep with anyone who is interested in you?"
For a moment, Kurapika was so shocked by the man's words that he forgot to react, he glared at the spider leader in front of him, opened and closed his mouth a few times before finding his own voice: "I won't ----- never Will ----- you dare?!"
Kuroro seemed unfazed by the boy's anger: "If nothing happened between us, but there was this relationship at the same time, I believe that question is very reasonable."
"Don't try to package it as a normal situation." Kurapika raged. "I'm sure I've said it many times." He waved his hand vaguely. "It's not normal, and my feelings don't There's a change. You should be happy that I'm not trying to kill you anymore, right?"
"You never tried to do that," the spider leader pointed out.
"Kill you?" Kurapika tilted his head arrogantly, looking at Kuroro coldly, "If it wasn't for your group members to catch my friend, I would really like to kill you."
"No," Kuroro insisted, "you didn't try to kill me--not once. I'm still alive, aren't I?"
"Like I said -----" Kurapika started, but the spider boss cut him off.
"You tried to kill me, but my crew caught your friend ----- for a very good reason. No," Kuroro leaned forward, the backs of his fingers gently following the line of the boy's cheek "If you really wanted to kill me, I wouldn't be sitting here right now, and you'd do it before you realized your friend was caught."
Kurapika almost retorted angrily to the man in front of him, but then he paused.He really, really hates to admit it, but Kuroro has a point.If he killed Kuroro right away in that hotel lobby, the matter would have been resolved quickly, and he might even have slightly puzzled the brigade, because the powerful head was killed on the spot, and they didn't even have time rescue.Of course, Gang and Qi Ya may also be killed for revenge.
But Kuroro's point is still there - he doesn't want to kill Kuroro, not because he can find another way to beat him, but because Kurapika doesn't want to see blood and death anymore.
"Whatever you want," Kurapika murmured, turning his face away to look at the big window on the wall.Kuroro's fingers followed the boy's movements and slid along his cheeks to his neck. Kurapika suddenly couldn't help taking a breath, his heart beat faster than before, and his head even felt a little dizzy.Kuroro brushed his collarbone with two fingers, and Kurapika immediately bit his lower lip.
Surprisingly, Kuroro withdrew his hand, he sat back on the chair and picked up the book, but he didn't open it, just held it on his lap, his black eyes were still observing the boy sitting opposite, Kura Pickup could feel the heavy gaze on his body, but this gaze couldn't relieve his uneasy mood at the moment. Time passed minute by minute, and the room suddenly became very quiet.
In the end, Kurapika felt that enough was enough, and he asked, "Why are you staring at me?" The boy said so, and instead of looking at Kuroro, he pretended to be looking at the clouds floating outside the window.
"Because you're beautiful," Kuroro said, "and I love looking at you."
Kurapika frowned at the blue and white scenery outside the window. "You always say that," he said, but he didn't sound angry.
"Because it's true," Kuroro replied.
Kurapika felt a burning sensation in his cheek, but he didn't speak again.It took Kuroro a long time to look away, he opened the book and continued reading, Kurapika felt more troubled and confused than yesterday.
It took them about a day to cross the ocean. Due to the time difference, it was already the next morning when the two arrived on another continent, but the airship only sailed for about ten hours.The airship that Kuroro and Kurapika took was the first to arrive at the local airport. Due to the small number of passengers, they quickly went through the immigration procedures.
Kurapika was worried that the security at the airport would look at their passports out of boredom, but Kuroro looked very relieved as he handed the documents.Touching his arm lightly, Kurapika handed over the passport.The security guard sitting behind the glass quickly glanced at the passport, and after looking at the man and "woman" standing in front of him, he scanned the barcode on the passport, and then waved his hand to signal that they could leave.In order to better pretend their roles, the two waited on the luggage conveyor belt for their luggage to be delivered.
After getting their luggage back, Kuroro and Kurapika can finally leave the airport.Today's weather is fine, the blue sky without a cloud, and the morning sun dyes the eastern sky with a soft color.The temperature on this continent is a bit cold, and there is no warm current to warm the land. Although it is summer, the temperature at night is likely to be colder, and it will warm up in the morning.
Kurapika gently rubbed his bare arms, looking around at the surrounding scenery: "Shall we rent a car here, or take a taxi?"
"Take a taxi." The spider leader suggested, "We can buy a car after we get to the city, and the price may be a little cheaper."
Kurapika didn't know why Kuroro didn't order him, because the boy was probably now -- and he was horrified by it -- one of the spider boss' minions.But Kuroro seemed to be making suggestions rather than orders, and Kurapika didn't know what that meant, but it was another thing he didn't want to dwell on.
"Of course." Kurapika shrugged, raised his hand and stopped a taxi. The car stopped in front of them, and the driver stopped not far from where the passengers picked up and dropped off.
The driver stepped out of the taxi: "Hello, ma'am." He said energetically, "Let me carry your bag for you." He walked to Kuraka, took the luggage in his hand, and walked to the back of the car.
Kuroro smiled at the boy, who looked amused.He went to the back of the car to help the driver put his luggage away, and Kurapika pouted, but he was amused by it rather than offended, and his disguise was clearly very successful -- well.Kurapika got into the back seat and waited for the (other) two men to get into the car.
On their way to their destination, Kuroro and the driver have a silly conversation, starting with a hotel promotion, then a famous shopping area nearby.Kurapika half-listened, wishing he had taken out the book in the luggage.The spider boss chose a hotel in the city center, which, according to the driver, was very close to the "good places" outside the city.
Kurapika covered his yawn with his hands, which caused Kuroro and the driver to shift the conversation to the delay of the airship. The boy nodded politely to the driver, but he was too tired to pay much attention to the other person's problem.
Fortunately, they arrived at the hotel in only 30 minutes. The driver got out of the car and took out the luggage, and the hotel bellman also took the suitcase so that the "lady" in front of her would not feel tired.If Kuroro felt amused before getting into the car, his eyes were now genuinely amused, and Kurapika just raised an eyebrow at him, reminding him that this was his suggestion in the first place.
Kurapika could easily misunderstand the two men in front of him—the taxi driver and the bellman, but he would not be dissatisfied because someone else carried his luggage.
They went into the hotel, asked for a room with two beds, and finally left space for the two of them to be alone.After a day, Kurapika finally felt tired. He saw Kuroro looking at him and told the man, "I'm going to sleep for a few hours. Is there anything to do today?"
"Just need to buy something," Kuroro said. "You can sleep as long as you want, and then go out together in the evening to find shops that are still open."
"Okay." Kurapika sighed, he walked to one of the bedrooms, glanced at the interior of a room, there was a double bed, an armchair and a cabinet, he looked at Kuroro: "Then ,Good night."
The reason the boy said that was because he thought it would be rude to just enter the room, and Kuroro said "good night" to Kurapika before he closed the door.
The boy quickly changed into pajamas, then got into bed and fell asleep.
