Ugly Squid

People seem to be mad at Abel for stopping Karas because they believe Abel wanted to spare the imposter, but I think it’s pretty clear that his real reason was to prevent more hostages from getting caught in the crossfire... Clearly Karas was not afraid to hurt the hostages so I think chalking it up to Abel being a stereotypically naive and foolish mc is not accurate

Really liked the extra. Can somebody recommend me more manga/hwa with this trope? (I.e bright, puppy-like uke warms his way into the heart of a cold (but kind) lone-wolf seme.) Extra points if it has a high school setting.
