The Psychopath Meets Indigo
Chapter 66 - What Happens, If...

If you have something, talk to someone. Although it's not resolved right away, at least you're relieved.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hiroto, I didn't mean to scold you!" Xiao tried to control himself, and eventually relented.

"No problem. Now do you want to eat with me?" Hiroto offered again.

"Bri, he's offering us a meal. You-you think"

"Sure I want to!" Brian snatched Xiao's words, because he was so excited. Because since his arrival here, he and Xiao had not put a single bit of food into the stomach.

"Alright then, my friend also agreed to eat together," said Xiao, who suddenly made Hiroto carve a big smile on his face.

Hiroto takes Xiao and Brian to one of the popular food stalls in Tokyo. The face of the man who worked as a taxi driver looked as bright as ever. He also did not stop talking about his daughter.

"I worked hard like this for Ashumi. I had to give him some encouragement, because he was always bullied at school." Hiroto.

"really? and the part of her that was similar to me, seemed to be quite inversely proportional!" xiao commented as he folded his hands on the table. His eyes focused on the man before him.

"I'm not in your conversation yeah, I'm just gonna eat!" chirp Brian who is busy struggling with a bowl of ramen. Xiao only glanced cynically to respond to Brian's statement.

"The atmosphere changes a lot, just like you. Sometimes he's gentle, and sometimes he scolds me for small things." Hiroto explained slowly.

"What do you do if you lose him?" ask Xiao. Hiroto who heard then widened his eyes, the look on his face immediately turned serious.

"Whatchu mean? please don't say no!" it seemed that Hiroto was offended by Xiao's question.

"I'm just wondering, and wondering how important Ashumi is in your life?" Xiao insisted on asking.

"Very important! he is the one who gets me excited about work. I did everything for his future, and I would never have imagined once that there was or was not him!" firmly Hiroto with a frown.

"That means you're having a tough financial situation now?" Xiao again demanded an answer.

"Is it really that obvious?!" Hiroto stared with a bitter twinkle in the look in his eyes. "That's why Ashumi bullied his friends. I couldn't even afford to buy him a laptop, as a result of having to pay the debt" he continued, his eyes began to dew.

Xiao let out a long breath. He pressed his head for a moment, as he was thinking about something.

"Do you think you're going to kill him?" Devgan suddenly interfered.

'I did intend to kill Hiroto, so that he would not feel his suffering again. Especially if he finds out his daughter is dead, Xiao thought.

"Do you want to come to my house and see Ashumi?" hiroto Tegar.

Xiao shook his head. "No need, we have to prepare for the return tomorrow!" he answered with a thin smile.

"Yes, this is the last time I give you a chance Al!" Chan.

"Sure!" Al was relieved. Now his plan and Brian have fallen apart. But at least he did it to the maximum.

"Al, I want to tell you that there's a ghost I told you to know your moves. So if you betray again I'll know!" chan is serious. This caused Al to be flabbergasted.

Chan brought his face closer. "Because from now on, I don't want to see Xiao anymore!" he said with a tone full of emphasis.

"You seem to hate him so much." Al argues.

"I'm going to school again, Al. So tomorrow we're not just looking for a rental house!" said Chan, who deliberately changed the subject.

"Good, a girl your age should focus on school. Not playing around with villains and ghosts!" tukas Al gives advice in a very sharp manner.

"Gee! why even insinuate?" reply Chan while slightly chuckling.

"Isn't that a fact?" Al raised both his hands forward.

"It's all because of Xiao!" chan said, his expression turning into a frown.

"He was guilty, but I think you're the one who got into trouble. Didn't you know he was a psychopath from the beginning?"

"Yes, I know. But I was only worried when he was frightened by creatures he shouldn't have seen. So I chose to be next to him. Till. . ." Chan did not finish his speech.

"Until you and Xiao end up getting drunk on love?" Al tried to guess the sentence Chan did not say.

"Al!" infuriated Chan, his cheeks suddenly flushed like a boiled crab. She was actually very embarrassed about talking about her romantic relationship.

"I don't think you hate Xiao yet. Lookie! when you think about it, your cheeks are so red!" Al chimed in while slightly chuckling.

Chan shook his head firmly, he immediately broke down himself. Then turn his back on Al just like that. Honestly, Chan actually agreed with Al. He still cares about Xiao, his heart even thumping just because it remembers the romantic moments with the man.

'Chan, don't be stupid! this time don't think about it anymore. My brain, think of something else! think we're going to school again, oh maybe I could fall in love with someone new!' Chan tried to brainwash himself. 'Maybe I can meet a handsome man whose speech-' in Chan's heart stopped instantly, because he unintentionally imagined Xiao's face as a result of saying the word handsome.

'Oh my! hyks!' Chan ruffled his own hair. His body was moved with a craze, until finally making Al who had collapsed beside him disturbed.

"Chan! why are you squirming around like a hot worm?! look at my lying territory so little!" al protested with a frowning forehead. His body was really squeezed to the end of the bed. As a result, Chan again shifted and gave space to Al.

Chan and Al are both on their backs. Chan is seen breathing heavily from his mouth and saying, "I hope that later at school, all my thoughts can be distracted and forget about the depraved creature!"

Al moved his head to the side to stare, he knew very well who the figure Chan was talking about. "He's a handsome depraved creature. If you don't want to, just for me?" his teasing while trying to hold back the laughter.

Chan reflex raised a sharp gaze, as if giving firmness that he would not let what Al wanted happen.

"Don't you say you want to forget?" Al raised both eyebrows. Chan suddenly fell silent in a thousand languages, then turned his gaze to the ceiling.

"Actually, I saw him kissing another woman. . ." Chan suddenly revealed.

"really?" Al looked questioningly.

"He even kissed two women at once. That's when I felt I should stay away from her. . ." Chan clenched one of his hands.

"So that's why you're so mad at him? I think it's because of the murder he committed." Al replied with a shudder of his shoulder. "But, I'm sure he's just playing around with Chan, he-"

"Tinkering?" Chan rolled his eyeballs, he accidentally snatched Al's sentence. "No one in this world wants to be played with! and I feel that way now. She's treating me like a cheap woman!" he said with a feeling of sadness in him.

Al patted Chan on the shoulder, then hugged him gently. "It's Chan, he's got his payback. I believe the law of karma always operates like time!" he said, trying to calm down.
