The Number One Star in the Interstellar Era [BL]

Chapter 269 100TH EPISODE [BLIND JUSTICE] (III)

SIX years had passed. Remi had stayed in this planet, not leaving even once. His bastard uncle had sent him to a third-rate school. He didn’t bother going. Which probably made the other absolutely ecstatic. But that didn’t mean that Remi wasn’t doing anything. 

He was extremely dedicated to advancing his hacking ability. With his current ability, he could say with confidence that he could hack into this planet’s national bank and transfer millions of star coins to his account without them even noticing. 

But that still wasn’t enough. If he wanted the complete downfall of his uncle, he had to be better than he was now. He still had a year before he reached adulthood. When that time came, he could finally enact his plan. 

Remi’s thoughts were cut off when he heard knocking on the door. Only one person would do this, especially when he’s in this room. The corner of his lips curved up unknowingly. 

”Come in!”

He turned the swivel chair he was sitting towards the door. The door slid to the side and a teenager walked in carrying a tray with a bowl of porridge and a glass of milk. His black hair was a bit messy and his pair of black eyes looked at Remi with a bit of disapproval. And in the depths of them, there was an underlying worry. 

In this dark room, the teenager seemed to have a halo. As if his presence itself was shining brightly. 

Who would have thought that that thin, malnourished kid would grow into such a beauty? Remi was just glad that he managed to save the other before he was sold by that asshole of a father. Just thinking of the things that could have happened to that young boy if he hadn’t gone to their house at that time could easily make him angered and depressed. 

”Young master, it’s already morning. You haven’t slept and even forgot to eat dinner,” Noa scolded. He walked forward and put the tray on the small desk inside the room. “Whatever you’re doing with all these… computers, it won’t run. So, come and eat first. Then, after, sleep.”

Remi stood up and smiled helplessly. He walked towards the small table and sat down. “Yes, sir,” he said teasingly.

”You’re not taking this seriously again, young master. You don’t eat much, you only sleep a couple of hours a day. Look at how thin you are. If you continue on like this, you will really get sick.” 

Noa tried to show a scary image, probably thinking that he would be more believable if he did. But in Remi’s eyes, the other only looked adorable. 

”Don’t worry, I won’t get sick,” he assured Noa. “I will always be here for you.”

A red blush suddenly tinged Noa’s cheeks. “Young master should just eat.” He then turned around and was about to leave the room but then quickly stopped as if he remembered something. He glanced back at Remi, then added, “Also, get some sleep. I’ll wake you up once it’s lunch time.”

Then he quickly walked out of the room as if being chased. Remi watched the other’s back and could only smile helplessly.

The people currently watching the 100th episode of [Blind Justice] all had their attention at the virtual screen in front of them. Especially after the teenage version of ‘Noa’ appeared. 

The people who knew about the issue that happened last weekend couldn’t believe their eyes. The one in the trailer was really Astrid Townsend! Most of them was very skeptical when someone mentioned that it was him, they even scoffed and said ‘impossible!’. Some even had a very violent reaction to it. But look, reality seemed to suddenly slap them in the face.

While those who didn’t know about the issue and was just enjoying watching the episode, couldn’t help but be intrigued by the character of this Noa. Of course, that included the actor who was playing the role. 

The first moment that the teenage ‘Noa’ appeared in the scene, they couldn’t stop focusing on him. It’s not just because of his beauty. That was already a given. But it’s the fact that it was not the first thing that they noticed about him. It’s the worry he showed for the young master who saved him. At that moment, no one thought that he was just acting a role. They truly thought he was just ‘Noa’.

For a newcomer to do that by only using subtle expressions and gestures, it was quite impressive. Just by that, one could see how talented he was. 

The scene on the episode continued to move. For 15 minutes they were blessed by a montage of scenes showing how Remi and Noa interacted with each other. 

They saw a side of Remi that they had never seen before – playful, childish, bursting with life, and just… happy. The Remi they knew was always cynical and indifferent. His eyes were like a deep abyss that looked at the world, not with joy, but with apathy. As if it wouldn’t matter to him even if the world ended the next second.

They understood then that the thing that changed him might be shown in this episode. And it might as well be connected to Noa.

The audience were suddenly filled with trepidation. They wished that the peaceful life of the two teenagers would just continue. But of course, the director wouldn’t allow them to soak in this warm feeling. 

Soon, a problem appeared. It was Remi’s uncle.
