Raising Birds, Fighting Monsters, Falling in Love

Everyone at the Anomaly Management Bureau knew that Group Leader Le of the Operations Team kept a bird.

Back when the bird was still an egg, Le Chuan built it a nest in his office. Once the egg's owner hatched, the nest was thrown into the storeroom, and Group Leader Le's shoulder became the bird's permanent perch.

One day, everyone was shocked to discover that the bird who was inseparable from Le Chuan had disappeared!

The next day, everyone was shocked again to see that the bird still hadn't returned. And behind Le Chuan, who usually went everywhere alone, a young man was following close on his heels. Le Chuan even kept turning around to urge him to hurry up.

It was like something out of a ghost story.

During a mission, Le Chuan found a bird's egg. Acting on instinct and a selfish impulse, he somehow ended up keeping it.

He kept it so long that he built nests for it at home and in his office.

He kept it so long that the little thing inside pecked through the shell, so he had no choice but to raise the unknown bird.

He kept it so long that... there was one less bird by his side and one more boyfriend who looked rebellious but was actually obedient, sweet, and clingy.

But...

Was he really obedient?

His colleagues, who had witnessed the bird flying and people leaping about, were reluctant to comment.

Was he really sweet?

The aberrants burned to ash by Lu Ran's flames had plenty to say, but no way to say it.

Was he really clingy?

Everyone nodded in unison, indignation on their faces. "Clingy to the point of being sickening!"

Le Chuan, passing by: ?

Le Chuan's expression was odd and sympathetic. "Whatever. I won't hold it against poor people without boyfriends."

"Anomalies have descended, my friends betrayed me! My powers abandoned me! My boss kicked me out! Only my beloved boyfriend came to my aid like a god from heaven! Send me 50 and I'll tell you the whole story of my revenge, whu..."

"Enough!" Le Chuan covered Lu Ran's mouth, grinding his teeth. For the first time, he thought there might be some truth to what everyone had said earlier.

"Who taught you to write your autobiography like this?"

"It's my autobiography, too!"
