☆、The appearance of the otaku^[1]It’s an Japanese word, a young person who is obsessed with computers or particular aspects of popular culture to the detriment of their social skills.

    The knock on the door was soft.

    Yue Feng opened the door, and found outside a thin boy, wearing black-rimmed glasses, a plaid shirt and loose jeans. Another programmer, Yue Feng thought.

    “Hello, I’m Song Qinyi.” The boy’s voice was quiet and polite. “I contacted you online. I want to raise a kitten.”

    “Come in.” Yue Feng took out two shoe covers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to Song Qinyi. Song Qinyi followed behind him and entered the room lightly.

    There is the only last walnut’s ^[2][ T/N:- Walnut is the name of the Cat of Yue Feng , who gave birth to kittens, Song Qiyi came to take the last one. ] baby left, sleeping in her mother’s arms. 

“The kitten is three and a half months old and can already eat kitten food, this year’s immunization has already been completed. After you take it back, you should take the cat to the pet hospital for sterilization when it is about one year old. You will need to supplement the immunization every year.”

    Yue Feng introduced the precautions one by one. Song Qinyi squatted beside the cat’s bed and looked at the kitten eagerly, not knowing how much he heard. The chestnut-colored kitten purred comfortably, like a sleeping elf. Song Qinyi stretched out his hand and carefully touched the top of the kitten’s head. The kitten felt a gentle touch in her sleep, rolled in comfort, and subconsciously rubbed Song Qinyi’s hand.

    “I also need to know what kind of work you do and your living circumstances. Because the cat will accompany you for a long time in the future, I want to make sure that you have the ability to be responsible for it.” Yue Feng said with a calm face as if he has been doing this for a innumerable times in a timely manner.

    “Okay,” Song Qinyi nodded obediently, “You can ask.”

    “What kind of work are you doing now?” Yue Feng asked.

    “Well…online work.”

    Sure enough. As a freelance writer who makes a living by observing society, Yue Feng has always been very accurate in seeing people. “Are you a local? Do you have your own house?”

    Song Qinyi’s expression darkened. “I don’t have a house, and I’m not a local.”

    “Do you live in a rented house by yourself now? I just want to get a general understanding about your living situation.” Yue Feng didn’t want to scare him.

    “I live in a dormitory now,” Song Qinyi said.

    “Well, the dormitory may not be suitable for raising cats… Even if you are good to kittens, your roommates may not necessarily accept it.” Yue Feng said with deliberation, for the fear of hurting the little boy’s heart. “Otherwise, I will contact you when Walnut gives birth to a kitten next year?”

    Song Qinyi bit his lip with an unwilling look on his face. “Can you give me a week.”

    “Ah?”

    “As long as I have my own house, right?” Song Qinyi reluctantly touched the baby kitten and stood up. “I’ll pick it up in a week’s time.”

    Yue Feng was a little surprised, the programmers nowadays are so rich that they can even buy a suite at will?

“Okay,” Yue Feng nodded, “but after a week, you must come. As the kitten grows up a little, it will become more and more difficult to adjust into the new environment.”

    “Okay, it’s a deal.”

     Yue Feng added cat food for his two cats, sat back in front of the computer, and took down the news of adopting kittens posted on the pet website, and then began to write.

    A week passed quickly, the walnut kitten grew up quickly too, but there was no response from Song Qinyi’s side. Yue Feng sent him several messages, but there was no response. It’s not that Yue Feng didn’t consider this possibility, but when such a thing really happened, he still felt a little lost. The world is too indifferent, always betraying his trust and time again and again.

  At that time someone happened to add him on WeChat. 
« Hello, my friend picked up a kitten from you. He said that you are very friendly and the kitten is also very healthy. Do you have any other kittens that we can adopt? »

    Looking at the moments on the WeChat, he found the couple very sweet. A family of four, a young couple with a pair of children, every photo was full of smiles. 
“Little master,” Yue Feng carried the kitten in front of the screen, “let them be your shit shovelling officers ^[3]Generally referred to those who does menial or dirty works.
Here it referred to the works of cleaning shit of cats in the future, okay?”

    “Meow.” The kitten readily agreed.

    Yue Feng returned the news of his agreement within an hour, the young couple drove to pick up the kitten, placed an order for imported cat food and cat litter details under the guidance of Yue Feng, and left happily holding the kitten.

    Just after sending off the little kitten, the editor sent a message saying that the manuscript was over, Yue Feng breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he finally could take a good rest. He opened a bottle of red wine and lay on the sofa in the living room watching old Italian movies. It was dark outside as well as raining heavily outside the window. In the living room, the movie was playing smoothly, the red wine which he was drinking was sweet, and walnut was snoring in his arms. Yue Feng felt that in the very moment he was the happiest person in the world. ^[4][ T/N:- Sksksksks I hope your best moment don’t get disturbed soon hahaha ]

    The plot of the movie was getting to the point when suddenly the doorbell rang out.

    Yue Feng thought it was a courier brother who must have rang on the wrong room number. He opened the door and saw that it was Song Qinyi. His clothes were soaked in rain water, and the tips of his hair were dripping wet.

    “What’s the matter with you? Come in quickly.” Yue Feng gave him a sideway to let him enter.

    Song Qinyi didn’t move. “Is the kitten still there? If not, I will…go back.” The boy lowered his head, as if he had expected the answer.

    “You come in first.” Yue Feng pulled Song Qinyi into the bathroom and threw him a towel. “Take a hot bath first. I’ll go get you clothes.”

    The sound of water rushing inside the bathroom could be heard, but it was rather Yue Feng, who was anxious in the living room. When he opened his WeChat interface, he happened to see that the young couple who had taken the kitten had released a new photo in their moments. The kitten had already gotten friendly with the two children, and the three of these little guys were very happy. It’s impossible for a small otaku to buy a house so quickly, Yue Feng comforted himself, he probably just wanted to come and see the kitten.

    As soon as Song Qinyi finished taking a shower, wearing Yue Feng’s clothes one size bigger, he walked out barefoot and shrank into a small ball on the other end of the sofa. “The house I bought has been transferred today, but I have been busy training the last week, my mobile phone has been confiscated, so I wasn’t able to contact you…”

    Yue Feng wanted to dig a hole on the spot and bury himself. He didn’t even dare to turn his head to see Song Qinyi’s expression. “I’m sorry, I’m really… I’m sorry.”

    “It’s okay, I don’t blame you, I missed the appointment first…” Song Qinyi tried his best to hide his loss.

^[5][ T/N:- Oh my God, he is so cute (0w0) ]

    The two were silent for a while, and then Yue Feng had an idea: “You must haven’t eaten yet right? I’ll cook something.”

^[6][ T/N:- Isn’t he too generous to a stranger…..? ]

    Yue Feng simmered a pot of beef in tomato sauce, and when he walked back to the living room, he saw walnut already playing with Song Qinyi, lying on the bed playing coquettish with it’s legs. Song Qin scratched Walnut’s belly, his expression finally returned to normal.

    “The beef will be stewed in a while, do you want to watch TV?” Yue Feng picked up the remote control and prepared to change the channel.

    “Do you play games, Age Z?” Song Qinyi asked.

    “My friend took me to play before, it’s boring to lose.” Yue Feng had no talent for games since he was a child.

    “Let me show you how to fight, it’s actually quite fun.”

    “So confident? Okay, but I’m also not too naive, I’m afraid you won’t be able to take it.” Yue Feng enthusiastically pulled out his own VR goggles and gamepads from the drawer of the TV cabinet. Song Qinyi also put walnut down from his arms, took out the portable gaming glasses and gloves from the clothes he had changed, and started the game on his mobile phone.

    Age Z is a mobile game that has just emerged in the past two years. It is based on ancient Chinese legends and adds VR and somatosensory operations on the basis of traditional 5V5 MOBA games. It is very popular among young people.

    “I’ll add you with my trumpet account^[7] Basically small accounts of the owner in a game or any social media app..” Song Qinyi said to himself before putting on the VR glasses.

    The two formed a team, Yue Feng looked at the rank, Diamond I, and thought that he had really met a great god.

    As soon as he entered the game page, Song Qinyi sent a message to the team: “I will take the ADC^[8]The ADC is the glass cannon of any good team composition, and vital source of damage. The role has changed a great deal over the years, though the core idea behind the position has remained the same. … Continue reading.” ADC is a long-range physical output, and it is also the core of a team’s output.
