A Suicidal Brainiac 13

The trial was finally starting.

As the two parties made their way into the courtroom, media personnel

After weeks of silence in the face of the interstellar world, Xiu Lin's name finally made noise!

Although it's not really Xiu Lin who spoke and he seriously have no idea about what's happening in the outside world as he himself was very tired, but all of the evidence publicly made that went to an uproar in just a day.

The tide turned into a tug of war of support and hate between two sides. Some believed professor Hu, because of his achievements saying thay professor Xiu was hiding because he can't answer the interview once the hardest questions were given. If being honest, it's already complicated enough. So sooner or later, Xiu Lin would have to appear in public's eyes soon.

Xiu Lin also though that he should finish the confrontation once and for all. He would have to appear on public soon. But did not expect it to actually be now.

On the first day of trial, Professor Hu made a drama. He cried his eyeballs out and made himself look more like a pitiful and selfless grandfather who's grandson suddenly made his life miserable.

Sympathy and ridicule mixed on the first day, taking in the heat of the moment for everyone to judge the other.

But since it's the first day, Xiu Lin's side was still peaceful. Ending the first day because professor Hu 'broke down'and could only be run into the hospital later that day.

In fact, it was merely a stunt to garner more support from the mass. Earning pity to soft hearted idiots.

Of course, this did not escape Fei Yang's observation and clicked his tongue at this old person.

"Lin, should I just kill professor Hu?" Fei Yang asked, caressing the boy's cheek the was lazily lying in his arm.

"Don't be stupid. I don't have a stupid lover." Xiu Lin replied annoyed.

"Of course, of course." Fei Yang said, pinching the young man's chin, lifting it and kissing his lips. His hand travelled to Xiu Lin's back creating circles to his waist making him ticklish.

"Uhm..." Xiu Lin hummed in rejection, pushing the man's chest but Fei Yang showed no sign of giving up. He just continued to leisurely kiss his little love until he was satisfied. Looking at the red faced little alien, he smiled satisfied.

"Half of the evidence will be published today. I don't think everyone will doubt you once they knew that professor Hu had been snooping around your office to steal your files." The general said.

"You hid a camera in my personal space?" Xiu Lin already understood where the evidence is coming from. He felt annoyed but he did felt like he was cheated on.

"We also tampered that idiot professor's smart communicator. All his conventions are recorded." Fei Yang responded proudly.

"I see." Xiu Lin decided not to make a bigger issue anymore.

He simply yawned. The effort of proving yourself innocent is really annoying. This is why Astixians hates confrontation 99.9 percent of the time. He closed his eyes and snuggled on Fei Yang's warmth dependently while the older obliged, hugging his lover with his travelling hands.

This is really where that big Lover comes. His role as the main character dazzled in the phase of the earth while Xiu Lin sat on his coat tails following just to get the left over glitters.

Having associated with protagonists are either hell or heavenly experience. Having seen a couple of movies and series involving cannon fodders hadn't really been a smooth sailing journey. Either they are stupidly evil, a passerby that suddenly turned evil or an extra friend that is either a backing or the one who will take the bullet.

In other words, they just have insignificant lines in the story that caused the entire chapter or episode to take longer than it should. It was all tiring work that Xiu Lin hoped not to be associated with the protagonists at some point. However, he really just had to because they happen to cross paths most of the time.

Sighing, the little alien finally fell asleep.

.

As soon as Fei Yang gave the go signal, videos had been posted in the online interstellar. The content pretty much decisively titled 'Old Hu is a Thief and a Liar'.

Of course, who doesn't know who Hu is. Specially with the growing barrage of his name popping out in every homepage of the networks. The news had been widespread and everyone were curious of what this content meant.

Opening the video, the first thing that they saw was a room. To be precise, a laboratory which contained stacks of research. In the middle of it was a young man with white hair doing observation to his apparatus. Obviously, this was Xiu Lin who was lost in his research.

The video fast forwarded and the boy finally left the room. The room was empty of lights and human, not until it was opened again. Upon inspection, an old man wearing a lab coat entered sneakily, looking around before closing the door and opening the lights in the room.

He quickly made his way towards the shelves and grabbed a research, opening the content and then leaving with it. The next day, when Xiu Lin found that the file was missing, he simply shrugged and created a new one.

After that, there was a text, explaining the situation.

-Professor Xiu had already finished his research when professor Hu came into his lab to steal files!

Why the little professor never confronted professor Hu you may ask? It is because he is an alien race known as an Astixian. For those who don't know them, Astixians are very intelligent alien race but they are unmotivated in other things such as starting up a fight or activities that demanded physical strength. They hate having personal issues which is why you never hear them complain. There are only three Astixians in the entire interstellar. All of which have important roles in our society.

If professor Hu had not been so pretentious and didn't steal and start up an issue, do you think they will just quietly sit and let themselves be bullied?

Professor Hu stole a total of fifteen researches that made his fame sky rocketed. If he is indeed not lying and all these novelty indeed belonged to his own inspiration, then please attend the conference and answer all our questions.--

The provocative post made headline news. This words also came to invite Professor Hu to a said conference. Not only as an interview, but to face Xiu Lin once and for all.

In which the professor had accepted without second thought. The research were under his name. He presented it personally in front of the higher ups which is why he have all witnesses needed. Even of this so called 'video evidence' was out, professor Hu could always say that it was a different time and date. That it was edited. It was his office.

There can are a lot of excuse he can use. No one would even know.

.

On normal days like these, Xiu Lin was currently busy handling his new experiment in the military lab.

As his own lab is no longer safe for his own experiments, it's better to do it to a secure place where no one would dare bully or steal from him and a place where his lover could watch over him making both sides satisfied.

In a matter of weeks, Xiu Lin finished a new medicinal pill, good for immediate closing of wounds. It was specially beneficial for soldiers and useful for Fei Yang personally.

The boy stuck his nose on the chemicals and noted them down, never even took a break. Xiu Zuo and Xiu Hou usually barges in to sleep on their free time including Fei Yang who would only watch his little lover busily handle the apparatus with careful handling. The delicate hands would use the fountain pen and write on his paper with enthusiasm.

This sight of him had always been alluring in Fei Yang's eyes that the more he stared, the prettier he becomes.

"The press conference will be tomorrow."

"Uh-huh." Xiu Lin didn't really care.

"What do you plan on doing?"

Xiu Lin haven't thought about it yet. Because he didn't particularly mind doing anything at all. Just thinking that he'll be in a press conference tomorrow really hurt his head. "Troublesome." He sighed.

Fei Yang, who was watching his lover stare at the apparatus intently, stood up. He walked around the table that separated them and stood behind the smaller teen. His hand snaked around his waist and kissed the back of his head lovingly.

"After this, I promise, no one will bully you anymore."

Xiu Lin looking at Fei Yang with his peripheral vision: ... you're the fucking bully...
