Dawn Redemption

"Cheers! To the great empire!"

The cups and plates were messed up.Wine bottles were swaying in the corner.The metal cutlery beat the edge of the plate with an ugly hymn rhythm, and was submerged in the high noise again, and might be interrupted by an arrogant belch after a while.

"I propose!" Rolf raised his glass, "Long live Germany!"

"Long live Germany!" Everyone raised their glasses and shouted loudly.

"Long live Captain Finn!"

"Long live Captain Finn!!"

"Okay, okay you guys," Finn finally protested, "let's skip the last sentence." "What's the matter? What's the matter?? You're our hero from today on!" Marcus said with a full face. Ruddy, "Kan has decided to write an epic for you! The legend of the brave elf Finn defeating the savage giants of soap ingredients—"

"..." Finn was silent.

No one knows how complicated his mood is now.Those slender thoughts that were like spider silk were densely twisted into a web, and it was like a boulder was imposed on it.In order not to spoil everyone's happiness, he forced a smile to show his joy at the celebration banquet held for him, but after everyone was drunk, the more noisy they were, the more he felt that his chest was extremely tight as if he was pressed by something. out of breath.

So he couldn't fake that smile anymore.He stared numbly at everything that was actually happening around him.

"Excuse me, Finn—" Jonas came over and touched his arm.He stretched out his thumb and nodded towards the door: "Can I have a word with you?"

Finn didn't even nod his head, he just stood up and walked out with Jonas, and forgot to say hello to his friends who were discussing the epic plot in full swing.The corridor was much cooler than the house, he closed the door behind his back, and walked to the corner of the stairs with Jonas.

"It just so happens that I also want to ask you something." Just as Jonas took a deep breath and was about to speak, Finn preemptively said.Jonas choked, and Finn frowned slightly: "What happened to your last shot?"

Jonas decided to play dumb: "What? I don't understand?"

"You deliberately,"

"Ah? How do you know?" Jonas looked sincerely surprised.

Finn closed his eyes, and opened them after a long wait. He choked out a few words between his teeth: "I'm not blind."

"Oh..." Jonas nodded thoughtfully, "That's right, you must listen to my explanation. I have thought it through carefully. I have thought about it carefully. If the prize is cigarettes, you will definitely not want it. In the end Or send it to us. If it’s wine or food, no matter who gets it, it’s not for everyone to eat together. If it’s a condom,” he said gloomily, “I don’t think anyone needs it more than you .”

"No, that's not the problem!" Finn waved his hand impatiently, "I mean, why didn't you take that shot yourself? I believe you can hit it, so we will win immediately, right? " "This..." Jonas stroked his chin as if pondering his words, and said after a while, "I'm with you, I know, when your boyfriend is watching you, everyone wants to You can be handsome. You know what you know, and we all know it. Besides, I have won the championship so many times, and that’s it. Your winning this time can even dampen the spirit of the people on the opposite side."

Finn was speechless, thinking of Noah, and looking at Jonas again, his heart felt sour for no reason.

Jonas stood aside, and waited for Fein's complexion to improve a little, then tentatively asked softly, "Fin, are you and him... having trouble?"

Finn hesitated for a moment, nodded, and shook his head after a while: "I don't know." He seemed to be struggling when he squeezed out these words: "I just think he seems to be... ... don't want to... ignore me..."

"Why?" "I don't know..." Fern sighed, "No, I might know. He thinks I didn't do what he said."

Jonas touched Finn's shoulder reassuringly, but didn't say anything.The sound insulation effect of the door is not good, the noisy sound leaks out and forms a hollow echo in the corridor, endlessly, as if losing its way here.

"It's okay." Fein said quickly seeing that Jonas's expression was more sad than his own. "I'll go find him tomorrow," he gritted his teeth, "Apologize."

He smiled at Jonas in relief, walked back to the door, raised his hand and turned his head before knocking on the door, forcing out a bitter smile:

"But tonight, I don't think it's possible for me to fall asleep."
