My Idol System: An Idol, But Also A Savior-Chapter 209: Louis
The ground was a blue tarp covered in an extremely slippery layer of gel, making it completely impossible to stand steady.
Joshua falling like this meant that his entire pair of pants was bound to get dirty.
He could not help frowning, his expression icy as he stared at his own hands. In the end, he still suppressed his disgust and placed his hands down to brace himself as he stood up.
His legs wobbled nonstop, but even so, he eventually managed to find a rhythm.
Step by arduous step, he moved forward, falling three more times in the process.
[I swear Joshua definitely doesn’t know how to ice skate]
[Alright, but how can this even be compared to ice skating, this kind of slippery feeling is really hard to control]
[Come on, come on!]
It was not just Joshua. The others were also constantly falling. At the very least, Joshua fell sitting down. Liona, on the other hand, fell flat on her face. She flew into a rage and no longer cared about her image at all. Even so, the fans were still screaming "goddess" nonstop.
After all, no matter what their goddess did, she was still a goddess. Anti-fans dared to criticize her? They would be cursed into oblivion on the spot.
At this point, Joshua could not even be bothered to stand up anymore. He threw caution to the wind and simply sat on the ground, using his hands as paddles to slowly slide toward the center, preparing to stand up and grab a plush toy.
But whether it was coincidence or not, before Joshua could spring up, Lucas just happened to catch a plush toy. He lost his balance like that, and his entire body suddenly fell down, crashing straight onto Joshua.
Joshua only felt a sharp pain shoot through his shoulder. His vision went completely black. It was obvious that Lucas’s elbow had slammed right into him.
The two of them slid together, nearly flying off the tarp.
Joshua even spun two full circles before he finally managed to stabilize himself.
He frowned involuntarily and instinctively looked toward Lucas.
But the moment he lifted his head, the scene before him left him completely stunned, almost unable to react to anything else at all.
A man was walking toward them.
The suit and leather shoes only accentuated his tall, imposing build. His black hair was neatly slicked back, revealing sharp, cold facial features. Those pitch-black eyes seemed able to see through any secret Joshua tried to hide with a single glance, and just one look was enough to make Joshua obey.
From childhood to adulthood, Joshua had never feared his parents, but when facing Louis, even though he knew Louis would indulge him, he had never dared to act rebellious.
Joshua always said that Louis was annoying, yet Louis was a dependable older brother, Joshua’s pillar of support. Because as long as Louis was there, Joshua could freely pursue whatever he wanted. He knew that behind him stood Louis, and no matter what happened, Louis would be there. He would never have to face anything alone.
But when the apocalypse arrived, Louis was the first to turn into a zombie. In the end, Joshua was left all alone.
Father, mother... Louis...
Memories surged like an undercurrent beneath the sea, blurring everything in Joshua’s field of vision.
Louis. It really was Louis. He would never mistake him.
Had his wish come true? Was he about to see his family again?
Home. His home.
Joshua stared blankly as Louis stopped and extended one hand toward him.
Almost instinctively, he raised his own hand, wanting to grasp that hand.
But another hand was faster than Joshua’s.
Lucas directly grabbed Louis’s hand, using the force to pull himself up.
He smiled at Louis. "Louis, you finally made it."
Joshua’s hand remained suspended in midair. His entire face was filled with confusion as he stared at the scene before him, as if he could not understand why it was like this, why Louis was holding Lucas’s hand instead of his.
Louis frowned, clearly not expecting Lucas to suddenly latch onto him like that.
He wanted to fling Lucas’s hand away, even casting an anxious glance down at the youth sitting on the ground.
But at that very moment, Luis charged over like a gust of wind, directly picking up the plush toy that had fallen on the ground. Then he scooped Joshua up and dashed forward. "We’ve definitely won, Joshua!"
That’s right. Once the fixed time was up, the mission for the special guests was to go up and bring their teammates back.
Because the gel was extremely slippery, there was no way for them to walk back normally.
Joshua had not managed to grab a plush toy, and Luis had not been expecting them to win either. Unexpectedly, Lucas did not pay attention and directly tossed the plush toy aside. At this moment, Luis truly picked up a free advantage. Hugging Joshua, he sprinted straight ahead.
At the same time, Alex was also carrying Tina.
Liona told Tiffany to carry her on her back, but Tiffany, with a cold expression, simply picked Liona up in her arms, and actually managed to carry her. Although her steps were not very fast, the scene still made the fans scream nonstop. They could only think that the best-friend CP was just too good.
Only Lucas and Louis were still standing in place.
When Lucas saw Luis snatch away the plush toy, he could not help shouting out, then turned to look at Louis. "Louis, let’s go back too!"
He had been hoping that Louis would also carry or piggyback him like the others. That way, the fans would definitely have plenty of material to edit. Louis’s status was anything but ordinary, and he could bring Lucas all kinds of benefits.
But Louis instead simply shook off his hand, grabbed Lucas by the wrist, and dragged him along.
Lucas could not help clenching his teeth in secret. On the surface, however, he still forced himself to smile cheerfully.
Only inside did panic and fear begin to rise. Just now, he knew it. That hand had been reaching toward Joshua.
Damn it. Could it be that even Louis had been bewitched by Joshua’s face?!
Joshua really was a slut.
Louis, meanwhile, had no idea what Lucas was thinking.
He looked straight ahead. Joshua’s figure was completely blocked by Luis.
Joshua... This was clearly the first time Louis had heard this name, and also the first time he had met this person. Yet the feeling was so familiar, as if he had watched Joshua grow up, as if he knew everything about Joshua.
In that instant, Louis’s heart felt as if it were being tightly squeezed. A rush of joy mixed with bitterness surged up. Clearly, he should have been happy, yet he felt an overwhelming urge to cry.
He knew it. He had found what the Adonis family had always felt they had lost at Celestia.
With no evidence at all, relying purely on instinct, Louis had already confirmed that Joshua was definitely his younger brother.
If he were to say this out loud, people would probably think he had gone insane. Louis could only endure it for now. He did not want Joshua to see him as a madman. At the very least, he needed proof to show that this seemingly crazy thought of his was actually correct.
Thinking back, he had clearly wanted to reach for Joshua just now, only for Lucas to suddenly pounce in. Coupled with the program’s rules, Louis did not pursue it for the moment. However, it was obvious to the naked eye that his pace had quickened. Lucas swayed continuously, barely managing to keep up with him.
The scene from earlier had already been clipped by Lucas’s fans and uploaded. In the blink of an eye, it once again turned into a full-scale war between the two fandoms.
[Hahaha, this is killing me. Louis reached out to help Lucas, and someone thought Louis was reaching for him instead, even lifted his hand and all. In the end Louis and Lucas held hands. Joshua must be so embarrassed he wants to crawl into a hole, hahaha]
[That expression looked like he was about to cry, it’s hilarious]
[Getting ahead of himself. Does he even know Louis? So funny. He probably thinks everyone will like him]
[Of course not. Louis isn’t just anyone. He has standards for making friends, it’s not just about having a pretty face, hahaha]
[Can you stop twisting things? Louis was clearly reaching out toward Joshua]
[Exactly. No matter how close Joshua and Lucas were standing, you could clearly see Louis reaching for Joshua. What’s wrong with these people]
[It’s just a camera angle issue. Louis and Joshua don’t even know each other. Fans should stop fantasizing like their idol]
Lucas’s fans mocked Joshua for being self-deluded and ending up humiliated. Meanwhile, Joshua’s fans provided all kinds of angles to prove that Louis had been reaching toward Joshua.
At this moment, Joshua quietly glanced back and could see Louis holding Lucas’s hand as they walked away. Earlier, Joshua truly had not thought of anything else. He had only felt that Louis was reaching toward him.
But it seemed that was not the case. Clearly, Lucas and Louis were familiar with each other. Louis was even a special guest invited by Lucas.
In that moment, Joshua seemed to regain his clarity.
That’s right. This was a new world.
Henry did not have the memories of the past. How could Joshua hope that Louis would remember him?
Joshua felt that this was enough.
At the very least, Louis was right there in front of him, alive and healthy. That was good enough. At least he knew that in another world, Louis was still living well.
But Luis was keen enough to sense that Joshua’s mood was not good either.
He thought it was because of what had just happened. From afar earlier, Luis had also seen what had occurred.
Smiling, he rubbed Joshua’s head. "It’s just a small misunderstanding, no need to feel embarrassed. We won. Smile, Joshua."
