Collapse, my pirated Golden Garden!

...

The next morning.

After washing, morning class and breakfast as usual, Maureen came to the studio in a good mood.

After saying hello, I entered the working state with anticipation, waiting for the lunch break at noon.

Because of this, time passed quickly and it was noon.

In the past, he could stay in the studio after work at noon, eat lunch and then go to the lounge to rest.

Today he will go to that location to investigate as planned.

So this time he didn’t rest after lunch, but went straight to the community in his memory.

Maureen took the elevator to the floor and found the room number, but did not rush to knock on the door and enter.

He started observing from outside, but of course he didn't observe for long before turning around and leaving.

Failed.

If you just look from the outside without going in, how can you know whether this is Kosmo's family or some other family?

And Maureen always felt that his behavior seemed a little bit abnormal.

Thinking of this, Morin quickly shook his head.

How could he be a pervert?!

He just... just...

Well, Maureen couldn’t think of any words to describe herself, but she wasn’t a pervert.

Because judging from your actions alone, it is indeed easy for others to misunderstand you as a thief, pervert, or something like that.

"It should be the Kosmo family, right?"

"How else could Kosmo's pen end up in someone else's house?"

Maureen did not give up the idea of visiting just because she didn't observe who the family was.

He regained his composure and planned to visit again after work in the afternoon.

Now...

It’s better to go back early and slack off, so that you will have a headache when you get off work!

Chapter 242: We can do it!

Just when Maureen and others were at work.

Grayxiu, the old favorite of the Golden Courtyard, also quietly came out to meet her editor, Miss Sakura.

"So what happened?"

Miss Sakura looked at Grayshut opposite her with some confusion. The data of Grayshut's works have been good recently.

Nothing went wrong and I suddenly thought of asking her out.

Then, Grayxiu's face turned red as she took out a stack of manuscripts from her arms without saying anything.

Miss Ying was a little curious: "What are you doing...?"

Ying took it and looked at it, and found that there were two men in the painting at the top of the manuscript.

And the names were also written on the manuscript: Cat Brother and Dog Brother.

"..."

Ying didn't look at it immediately and pursed her lips. She seemed to understand something just by looking at the title.

She looked at Grace with some reluctance to believe. She felt that Grace was still young and shouldn't be seeing these things, nor should she be drawing these things.

Seeing that Grayshu was silent but confident, Miss Sakura finally nodded and started to look through the pages.

After a while.

She raised her head again and asked, "Are you going to publish this?"

"It's not impossible. After all, it's just a short story. It won't affect your past works."

"I'm just not sure how well it will sell. Are you sure you want to publish it?"

Gray Xiu's eyes were firm and serious: "Yes! Miss Ying, I'm sure!"

...

It's time to get off work.

While it was still light, Morin bought some items for the visit and came to the place he had explored in the morning.

He stood outside the door, took a deep breath nervously, and then knocked on the door.

After a while, there was some movement inside.

"Who?"

The voice was heard, the door opened, and an intellectual woman stood out.

Morin forced a smile on his face: "Excuse me, are you from the Kosmo family?"

The intellectual woman who came out to open the door was Kosmo's mother. She looked at Morin, who was about the same age as her son, and said in a gentle tone, "Yes, you are?"

Morin was delighted to see Kosmo's mother admit it, and then said, "My name is Morin, I am Kosmo's landlord and classmate. I have always had a good relationship with Kosmo, but I just don't have time to visit."

"It's still early today so I came to visit you."

As Morin spoke, he handed over the gift in his hand.

Kosmo's mother hesitated for a while, chose to believe it, and invited Morin to come into the house and sit down.

Come to the living room at home and sit down.

Ke's mother poured a glass of water for Morin: "I don't know... uh..."

Mrs. Ke was about to say something, but she didn't know how to address Maureen.

Mo Lin also quickly added: "Just call me Xiao Mo."

"Oh...well, I wonder if Xiao Mo is here because something happened to Kosmo over there?" Ko's mother was still reluctant to believe that Morin just came to visit.

Although Maureen's purpose was not to visit her, he couldn't tell her openly, so he had to think of a reason.

"No, it's just that Kosmo seems to be worried about something recently."

"He won't tell me even if I ask him, so please come and visit to learn about what happened to Kosmo in the past."

"Worry..." Ke's mother nodded to show that she understood and was no longer so alert.

She is Kosmo's mother, how could she not understand Kosmo?

Kosmo is a rather dull kid in his daily life, and he is unwilling to open up his heart.

As the landlord of Kosmo, it is a rather special shared rental system.

It is indeed normal for Maureen to care about this matter.

After all, the shared housing system is not like ordinary rental where tenants do not disturb each other. In a shared housing system like this, the psychological and mental state of the tenants needs to be taken seriously.

Ko's mother was willing to believe Morin for the time being. She lowered her head and sighed for a while, then began to tell Morin about what had happened to Kosmo in the past.

Ko's mother is very concerned about Kosmo's affairs and she remembers many things very clearly.

As she deliberately sped up, she finished the whole story in no time.

But Morin already understood most of what Ko's mother said.

So after letting Kosmo drink some water and rest for a while, he continued to ask the question that concerned him the most: "I heard Desdobia once said that Kosmo had a favorite fountain pen, right?"

"Destobia...? It's that little girl." Ko's mother smiled and nodded: "Yes, it was given to him by my husband, Kosmo's father."

"Kosmo's father is a lawyer and dotes on Kosmo."

"Kosmo was still young and ignorant at that time, but he admired his father very much."

"As for the fountain pen, it was once when Kosmo had a high fever. I was on a business trip and his father happened to be home, so I took him to the clinic for treatment, but the medicine was only halfway injected."

"His father received another important commission, so he gave Kosmo the fountain pen he had been using since he became a lawyer."

"I made a promise with him, who was still a kid at the time, to let him take the medicine there by himself, and I ran to the client's home without caring about anything else."

When Ke's mother talked about this incident, there was an expression of endless tenderness on her face, although in the end Ke's father did not seem to be a good father.

But the past is the past, and nothing serious happened to Kosmo, so they never resented Ko's father.

After listening to this, Morin nodded and stroked his chin, seeming to understand something.

This is the fountain pen that his father has always used. Maybe this is why Kosmo cherishes it?

Lawyer..., it seems that what Kosmo first admired was not the heroism of a knight, but his own father?

Is it because your father's justice is the same as that of a chivalrous hero that you aspire to be a hero?

"It turns out that what Kosmo really longs for in his heart is his own father..." Morin sighed.

Feeling that the time was about right, he stood up and bowed: "Sorry to trouble you, but it's getting late, so I'll leave first."

"Ah, it's okay..." Ke's mother also felt a little dazed. She didn't expect time to pass so quickly.

As she looked at the sensible and polite Morin, her affection for him grew slightly.

She stopped Maureen and said, "Could you please wait a moment?"

Maureen was confused, but agreed.

Then I saw Ke's mother enter a room for a while, and when she came out, she was holding an exquisite little box in her hand.

"This is the pen. Kosmo didn't keep it properly because of what happened in the past, so I put it away."

"Can you please give it back to Kosmo now?"

Morin took it and nodded solemnly: "Of course no problem, I will definitely hand it over to Kosmo intact!"

After continuing to chat with Ko's mother for a while, Morin put away the small box and left Kosmo's house.

Then, just after he left, a long-lost system prompt sound finally came into Morin's mind.

[Congratulations to the host for taking the initiative and finding the key clues]

[Successfully triggered the mission: Kosmo's Justice]

[Task Introduction: Kosmo becomes a hero, but people don’t want to become someone for no reason, so please find the reason why Kosmo wants to become a hero]

[Task requirements: Please understand the past while in a dream state]

[Task rewards: issued based on completion]

Mo Lin stood there without thinking too much about the task that was suddenly issued. He couldn't help but want to complain: "Miss System, you are too slow. I'm almost done."

"By the way, where have you been these past few days? Why do you look so sneaky?"

Miss System didn't react much, just said four words.

【Don’t slander】

Then another connection came.

[It has been under maintenance in recent days, and the completion time of the maintenance is uncertain]

[If you have nothing to do, please do not call or disturb me at will]

When all these were finished, Miss System fell into silence again.

"..." Mo Lin was speechless.

I haven't said anything yet.

"Okay!"

In the end, Morin could only squeeze out two words from his throat and stopped calling Miss System in disbelief.

Instead, he chose to leave the community and head towards the road back to the Golden Courtyard.
