I am a freeloader in the anime world

Sakurajima Mai's house, living room.

"Hey, Hoshino-kun." Sakurajima Mai, who was watching TV, suddenly called out to Su Yang who was wiping Mo Qing.

"Hmm?" Su Yang looked up at Sakurajima Mai with some confusion.

"Half a year ago, you were the one who sent me food, right?" Mai Sakurajima asked out of the blue.

"?"

For a moment, Su Yang didn't react, but he still lowered his head and thought about it, but he still didn't understand what Sakurajima Mai meant.

"Half a year ago, at Tengze City Citizen Library." Seeing that Su Yang really didn't remember it, Mai Sakurajima added another sentence.

Obviously, Mai Sakurajima's supplement still failed to remind Su Yang of anything.

"Ah~" Sakurajima Mai held her forehead and sighed. If she hadn't seen the clear confusion in Su Yang's eyes, she would have thought that Su Yang was teasing her. "Half a year ago, at the Tengze City Citizen Library, you handed me food and told me that no matter what, the most important thing is to stay alive without hurting others."

Obviously, Mai Sakurajima's words did evoke Su Yang's memory, but the next second, what he said made Mai Sakurajima regret it.

"Are you the crybaby who cried because he was hungry in the library?"

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

I wasn't crying just because I was hungry, right? And what I cried was called sobbing, not wailing! Besides, I just sobbed for a while, how did I become a crybaby, asshole!

"I'm going to the bathroom." Su Yang looked at the slowly worsening expression on Sakurajima Mai's face and quickly realized that he had said the wrong thing. He decisively chose to escape by peeing, but Sakurajima Mai did not give him this opportunity and grabbed his hand.

"I like you." Sakurajima Mai's voice was very soft, so soft that even the sound of a mosquito flapping its wings might be louder than it.

"What did you say?" Obviously, Su Yang didn't hear what she said.

"..."

Following Su Yang's question, silence fell between the two.

"I like you." After a long while, as if she had prepared herself mentally, Sakurajima Mai said in a voice only slightly lower than normal. She looked directly into Su Yang's purple pupils with a firm look in her eyes.

"I'm sorry, I can't accept it." Su Yang said this without any hesitation.

"Why?" asked Sakurajima Mai.

"You may be affected by the suspension bridge effect." Recalling their experiences, Su Yang said, "We are not familiar with each other, or even don't understand each other."

"I'm sure it's not because of the suspension bridge effect." Sakurajima Mai was very sure, "As an actor, and a famous one at that, my understanding of human psychology may not be as high as those of professional psychologists, but it's definitely not low."

"Maybe." Su Yang shrugged, "But I still say the same thing, I can't accept it."

"Am I pretty?"

Although he didn't know why Sakurajima Mai suddenly asked him this, Su Yang still answered truthfully.

"pretty."

“Am I gentle?”

"Very gentle."

“Am I virtuous?”

"virtuous."

"Then why don't you accept it?"

"If I don't accept it, I don't accept it." Su Yang was very sure, "I believe you also know my situation from the store manager. Do you think love can appear in someone like me?"

As he spoke, a trace of loneliness flashed across Su Yang's purple pupils. He also longed for love, but people like him could not fall in love, or in other words, could not fall in love with ordinary people.

The people in the Crossing Bureau are immortal, or in other words, they are immortal. He knew this a long time ago. Of course, the Crossing Bureau does not oppose their employees to have love, or they are in favor of it, because for the Crossing Bureau, love can alleviate the numbness of the staff in the Crossing Bureau caused by the day-to-day work, and can make the employees work better. However, the Crossing Bureau encourages love between employees, and at the very least, love with eternal life.

Because, for an immortal, falling in love with an ordinary person is not a good choice, or it can be said to be a cruel choice, because the immortal can only watch in despair as his or her other half gradually grows old and then passes away.

After all, birth, aging, sickness and death are the iron laws of the world no matter which world it is in. Even the Time Travel Bureau cannot change this iron law. The employees of the Time Travel Bureau can achieve immortality, but this is just a deal made between the Time Travel Bureau and various worlds. They also say that it is a bug in the card. The so-called immortality is only relative, not the real immortality.

The principle of eternal life is actually very simple. Legal travelers can obtain the blessing of their original world. After obtaining this blessing, they can ignore the passage of time in any world except their original world, which is the so-called eternal life.

But this blessing is relative, or it has a bad side. Once you have this blessing, you will die instantly when you return to the original world. This result is inevitable. Of course, since illegal travelers cannot have this blessing, it also means that they still have to grow old, get sick and die normally.

However, it’s not that no one has tried to obtain this blessing, but they have all failed without exception, because the selection of legal time travelers is completely random and cannot be interfered with at all, so naturally there are no loopholes to exploit.

"Do you know that at the moment when every girl loses hope in life, they hope in their hearts that there will be a ray of light to guide them to live again?" Mai Sakurajima looked directly into Su Yang's eyes with a firm gaze, "And you are my light."

Mai Sakurajima was naturally aware of Su Yang's concerns, and she also knew that she was very selfish, because she wanted to use her short life to leave a mark of her own in Su Yang's eternal life. But this behavior was painful for Su Yang, which meant that after her death, he would be tortured day after day with grief.

However, love is inherently a selfish act. Or, in Mai Sakurajima's view, as long as the process of love is beautiful, no matter how sad the ending is, as long as the beauty of the process outweighs the sadness, it's fine.

"Sorry, I can't accept it." Su Yang repeated it again.

"Hehehe." Seeing Su Yang's stubborn look, Mai Sakurajima didn't look discouraged at all. "I just don't believe that I, a beautiful girl, can't make you fall in love with me!"

"Give up. I've sealed my heart with cement." Su Yang said this with a firm tone, without any hesitation.

"So what if your heart is sealed with cement? Even if your heart is sealed with titanium alloy, I will still pry a crack open for you!"

So, Sakurajima Mai made a declaration.

On the other side, Ping An Hotel.

"Hey, that guy has one more marriage line. As expected, did he accept my proposal?" The man in Confucian clothes counted on his fingers while sitting in front of the cashier. "Huh? That guy is actually the one who was confessed to? It doesn't matter. But that guy definitely doesn't know that once a marriage line is tied, he can't escape it in this life. Well, now it's time to find another marriage line for him. The Shura field by then will definitely be terrible. Hahahaha, feed me dog food, this matter is not over yet!"
