"..."
Sweet and gentle breaths could be heard from their bed.
"..."
Heizou and Kazuha were cuddling in their sleep, with their arms wrapped around eachother.
Suddenly, Heizou awoke from his slumber and saw Kazuha's cute face asleep. Heizou couldn't help but "Aww" in his mind. He then kissed his cheeks gently and then turned around to see the alarm clock.
"EH!?"
Heizou suddenly jumped out of bed, clearly panicking. Kazuha then awoke, rubbing his eyes.
"Nnn... Heizou... keep it do-"
"AH!"
The two boys had jumped out of bed, falling midway after slipping on some pile of clothes. They fell on top of eachother and remembered the time when Kazuha and Heizou fell on eachother and felt eac- ahem.
They then got ready quick and rushed out, forgetting to eat breakfast.
"Oh god we're 30 minutes late! The opening must have happened already!"
Said Heizou, frantically.
"Keqing is going to kill us, isn't she?" Said Kazuha.
They then held hands and sprinted through the harbor to the venue. Thanks to their agility and their vision, they were able to make it in time.
They had arrived in the venue but realized only Keqing was there.
"We're late..., aren't we...?" They both said in unison. They panicked and mentally prepared an apology for Keqing when suddenly, her gaze was fixed on them. She then approached them.
The boys shrieked in fear.
"Hey! What are you two doing?" Said Keqing.
("We've done it now...") they thought.
"Why are you here an hour early?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"HUH!?!"
The boys then realized that they actually came an hour early because they had confused the timings to an hour before.
"Why are you surprised?" Keqing said, raising her eyebrows.
"Oh... i-it's nothing...." They both blushed in embarassment.
"Well... since you're here... why don't you take one last view of this city before its crowded with people?"
On they went, to find a nice bench surrounded by lush green grass in the park area. They found a bench by a water fountain where they could enjoy the view of the city.
They both took a breath of fresh air.
Kazuha: "Heizou... isn't this such aย ย
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย relaxing place?"
Heizou: "Indeed it is, my love~."
Kazuha: "*whisphers* oh my god.
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย Ahem... anyways...."
Heizou: "Aww... why don't you react to
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย my nicknames as much like
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย you used to...."
Kazuha: "..."
Heizou: "Hmm... time for a new
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย nickname!"
Kazuha: *begins to blush*
"How about...."
"!"
Suddenly, a soft and gentle kiss was given to Heizou by Kazuha. Heizou could taste Kazuha's sweet lips when it touched his.
"How abot we stick with, boyfriend?"
Said Kazuha, releasing their kiss. Kazuha then kissed him again.
Heizou's heart was melting as he malfunctioned like a robot. His face was red, but he felt proud from the back of his head knowing that Kazuha became bold enough to take charge.
"H-Heizou? Are you okay?"
"Heizou...?" Said Kazuha, slightly worried.
"Askfjdjshdkfs," said Heizou, not knowing what to say.
"Why are you speaking gibberish?-" Kazuha said.
"You really know how to make me fall for you. I'm like... head over heels for you, you know."
"I'll take that as an, ' I love you'. I love you too, the detective to my heart~."
*////*
Later, they shared a conversation about nature when suddenly, they realized that the opening ceremony was about to start. They then ran to the venue and made it on time
"Welcome to everyone present here this prosperous day to witness this event." Ningguang spoke. "Today, we shall witness a great achievement which is the grand opening to Liyue City! Let the ceremony commence!"
Suddenly, Keqing cut the ribbon and the city was officially opened. Some time after the ceremony, Heizou and Kazuha saw Yanfei and Tianlin talking.
"Anyways, if we are able to piece the clues together, we can..."
"Hello! What's going on here?" Said Heizou.
"Ah! Hello again! How did you find the ceremony?" Said Yanfei.
The four of them then engaged in a conversation when suddenly...
"Heizou, you're a detective right?"
Asked Yanfei.
"Yep, I'm one of the most skilled detectives you can find." Said Heizou, filled with pride.
"Could you do me a huge favor and help me find evidences for a case?" Asked Yanfei.
Tianlin then spoke, "Is it really okay for us to involve them? Wouldn't we just bother them?"
The two then spoke, "No no... not at all!"
Yanfei then told them about the case, and how it was related to a corrupted business where illegal transactions were being made. Yanfei then made Heizou sign a contract which stated that Heizou would work as a private detective just for this case.
Heizou then looked at the evidence Yanfei collected and worked alongside Kazuha to find the place of the transactions. It took them half a day to find the place.
They then had a stake out at the place of speculated transactions. They waited for several hours when finally, two men showed up.
"You got the mora?"
"Yeah, it's all in the suitcase. Now, show me the goods"
In the briefcase, they caught a glimpse of stolen valuables and illegal drugs.
Heizou took pictures using a Kamera. After they had took pictures of the entire transaction, they saw them sign a contract. After the two men signed the contract, Heizou took one last picture before everyone revealed themselves.
"What the-"
"We've been discovered! Erase them to secure our status!" Yelled the men.
"You two are under arrest." Yelled Yanfei.
The men then gazed beside her and saw the dignified gentleman beside Yanfei.
"T-The Kaiyang?" Said the men.
"Shut up. I will not tolerate such behavior." Said Tianlin.
Suddenly, one of the men threw several throwing knives at Tianlin. All the knifes hit which caused Tianlin to begin bleeding. Suddenly, the bleeding Tianlin turned into a pile of leaves. This surprised everyone.
"Just go to sleep already. Seeing people like you sicken me." Said Tianlin, unscathed, with a cold voice.
Suddenly, Tianlin snatched the contract and made the two men pass out by giving them a carotid strike in a blink of an eye. He then restrained the two by wrapping vines around them. They then detained them.
Yanfei got sufficient evidence to sue the company. Some days later, the trial had taken place. The evidence Heizou
and Kazuha helped them find was crucial and helped proving Yanfei's evidence even more.
Yanfei had won the case.
After the trial, Tianlin then approached the boys and said, "Thank you for doing this. I hope that my friends can correct their wrongdoings."
The boys then realized why Tianlin had taken an interest in this case. They asked Tianlin about it and he told them everything. He told them about how the three heads of the company were his friends who became corrupted and hungry for money and power.
When Tianlin confronted them, they only yelled at him, saying things like:
"A rich person like you won't get it."
"You're only happy because you have a paying job. Besides, you're just a pathetic joke without your title of Kaiyang."
"Mind your own business."
Tianlin felt disgusted and felt pity for his friends, and decided not to stoop to their level back then.
After they met up Yanfei, they then celebrated the success of the case with a small celebratory lunch and they went their ways, promising to hang out just as friends in the future.
Heizou and Kazuha then spent the next few hours on a shopping date in the mall of Liyue City.
