Love Code at the End of the World

“Laheus...” I looked at him worried, would he be angry with me?

“I'm fine.” He spoke softly, “I'm going to try to quit the habit of talking to you in a book...” He spoke to himself like he was drumming.

I sat right next to him and patted him on the shoulder: "Yes! You're so familiar with me. Sometimes you don't dare speak to me. You have to write a note. It's a little..."

“Because of the habit...” he said in a low voice, "When a person is used to being treated as a girl, they get used to it... it doesn't matter, I will slowly change it back.” He looked up at me with a smile and his grey blue eyes filled with confidence.

I gave him a boost: “Whatever it is, Lexius is my best friend! ”

He smiled lightly, turned his face back, and looked up at the sky again: “When I was a little girl, I didn't know if I was a boy or a girl. At that time, everyone thought of me as a girl, and Harry protected me specially...”

Harry, they're the culprits!

At the age when Lexius was not a man and woman, they characterized him as a girl, and naturally made Lexius understand himself as a girl, and since then they have taken root in his heart.

But even then, it's not easy for Lexius to be straight!

“Later, I knew that I was a boy, and I felt humiliated, so I started staying in the lab, and I stopped talking to Harry, and when I saw the girl, I didn't know how to talk...”

“It's all Harry. They're bad! ”

“Lobien, you're the first girl I've ever really talked to.” He turned his face towards me and I looked at him with surprise: "Really?! ”

He nodded: “Before... I spoke only occasionally to Asina because she was a princess, and I used to say to her a lot of the time through the door...” He smiled and fell into memory, "so you were kind of the girl I was really talking to face-to-face.” He smiled at me again, "Thank you, I'm not ashamed to talk to you face to face like this now. ”

His smile was sincere and warm in the sun, and he and I rarely spoke face to face, shoulder to shoulder, as we do now.

[My happiest... is like now... being alone with you... talking... not being excluded by you...] Ignorantly, I somehow crossed this line in my head that resembles Lexius, obscure and distant, familiar and unfamiliar. Someone said it in my ear, but I can't remember who said it.

“What's the matter?” Lexius seemed to see something, asking me.

I said to God, "Oh, nothing, it seems like someone told me they liked talking to me, but I... I can't remember who it was, can you? Lexius? ”

Lexius shook his head and took out his notebook.

“Are you going to talk to me in a book again?” I went to get his book right away, and he was ready to quit, but I couldn't let him relapse.

Lessius laughed, "No, I'm writing a chemical equation, and I can't think of another brain.” He refers to the brain, sorry to look at me, "I can't control it thinking, not that I don't respect you and don't listen to you wholeheartedly.” He explains all nervously.

I laughed, "I get it. You count. ”

“Thank you.” And he actually said, "Thank you." And he started writing, which is a complicated chemical equation that I can't understand.

“By the way, Laheus, weren't you with Harry before?” I'm going to spy on him while one brain runs, maybe two brains run together, and he'll be easy to talk to.

“Harry was called away by Sister Ceci, and I could be alone for a while. He's been annoying lately.” As Lexius writes, he says, the language is steady, and it has revealed a kind of man's steadiness. Is Lexius really changing a lot, because he's a double brain? So his evolution is double?

“By the way, Lexius, I came back this time to find Kay and they looked great. Did you notice that? ”

He looked at me with a smile, his hands still holding, completely blind and unaffected by the chat. He said, "It's the laws of nature. ”

“The laws of nature?” Kay, they look good. What does that have to do with nature's laws?

“It's also a genetic evolution. In nature, males look better than magnets, and in order to seek a partner, males focus on their appearance. Now that it's the end of life, and girls are particularly scarce, and the ratio of boys to girls in Noah City is 10 to 1, and almost the world as a whole, there's an instinctive change in the ability to make themselves look better in order to attract females.” Lexus watched me deeply as he finished, and his grey blue eyes revealed a kind of water blue clarity in the afternoon sun.

I suddenly realized, "I get it. You mean, because there are fewer girls, boys make themselves look good, and this change is instinctive, so it's genetic evolution. ”

“Yes, this change is more pronounced, especially when there are competitors.” Laheus went on to say, "Kay, they are also competing with other boys in Noah City, and their optimization has been stimulated by love enemies, which is why the ability generally looks better than the average person. ”

“It's amazing.” I put my hands on my cheeks, "so the girl doesn't evolve like this?” I turned to look at Lexius.

Lexius was awkward: “Since it is the law of nature… girl…” He became more and more embarrassed.

“It's not getting ugly!” I'm nervous.

“No, no, no, no, no.” Laheus again stuttered, as he had done before, because he was anxious to speak too fast, "but it just wouldn't evolve. ”

“Sure enough, if you have good respect, you don't want to move forward!” My one-handed face despises the laziness of the girl's genes.

“Lobing.” Laheus called me softly, and I turned to him and said, "What? ”

He looked deeply at me for a moment and blinked, his eyes dropped and said softly: “You are beautiful...”

“Push.” My heart suddenly missed a beat, and Lexius suddenly praised me so directly, making my old face slightly reddish, even though Harry used to always say I looked good, but because of his disingenuous appearance, I never took it seriously.

But Lessius was different, and he was so serious, so shy, as if a boy were confessing to a girl, how could he not make people blush and heartbeat?

Lexius' face began to blush again. He blushed, and I couldn't help but blush. I turned my face around and continued with one hand, covering my red-haired face: “Thank you. ”

“Psst.” We were caught in a shy silence in the sound of his writing, and even the temperature in the flower house seemed to rise unwittingly.
