Chapter 63

[You noticed something was off with Ichinose Shiori. Sure enough, after entering the room, she confessed her remorse and described her perceived sins to you. From her words, you learned that Ibuki Yuko had willingly submitted to your coercion.]

Sighing as he read the simulation text, Minami Yuuki pondered.

Before the memory scene appeared, he had sensed something was wrong. The simulation continued even after Ibuki Yuko’s death.

From previous life simulations, he had deduced a conclusion: the simulation ended with the conclusion of a romantic relationship.

In the past simulation, when Asano Nao died, the simulation did not end immediately because their relationship had not ended.

Love is an emotion between two people; as long as the emotion is deep, even separation by death cannot end the romance.N/nêw n0vel chap/ers are published o/n n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m

In the last simulation, his relationship with Ibuki Yuko was shallow, and the simulation ended abruptly with her death.

This time, he thought his relationship with Ibuki Yuko was similar to the last one, yet the simulation did not end with her death.

It was clear that their relationship had not ended; Ibuki Yuko still had unexpressed emotions.

From this, he immediately realized that his belief that Ibuki Yuko was a lifeless puppet was a misconception, an illusion.

He had been deceived by Ibuki Yuko!

The girl had actually undergone a change within, quietly and subtly, masked by an elegant facade, hidden beneath her pure white face.

In plain terms, Ibuki Yuko had secretly fallen for him!

“Indeed, no one can resist my charm!” Minami Yuuki’s initially discouraged heart was comforted.

Feeling proud for a moment, he returned to the issue of Ibuki Yuko.

He complained, “Since you’ve already fallen for me, why not show it a bit!”

“No, perhaps she did show it? And I just didn’t notice?”

He recalled the simulation’s storyline, thinking of an incident that made him decide to give up on Ibuki Yuko.

He had tested Ibuki Yuko’s limits by assuming the identity of her “fiancé.” When he failed, seeing her offer no resistance, he concluded that she was a puppet devoid of will.

“Is it possible that Ibuki Yuko did not resist because she was happy to go along with it?”

If so, her lack of resistance was an action, an action that contained her own will.

These were just speculations. Minami Yuuki set them aside and continued to look at the simulation interface.

[Ichinose Shiori’s statements stirred waves in your heart. You do not blame Ichinose Shiori; you had already decided to leave Ibuki Yuko before she intervened. It was you who failed to notice the girl’s inner feelings.]

[At the same time, you have a different theory about Ibuki Yuko’s death compared to Ichinose Shiori. Shiori believes Ibuki Yuko stood under the cherry blossom tree by the river, gazed at the apartment, and then jumped into the water. You do not think so. You comfort Ichinose Shiori, encouraging her to cheer up and investigate the incident.]

[The next day, the investigation made progress. Through reviewing nearby surveillance footage and questioning residents, the police identified the real culprits.]

Monitoring a beautiful girl together with another beautiful girl sounds a bit exciting!

He looked out the window; the night was already deep. This third simulation might consume a lot of time.

Forget it, he had to get up early tomorrow.

Let’s see what kind of reward this settlement brought.

Minami Yuuki stared at the summary screen, looking at the words “some memory fragments” in the settlement column.

This was a type of reward he had never seen before.

[Do you want to extract memory fragments?]

Yes!

The moment he clicked confirm, Minami Yuuki felt a lot of information flooding into his brain. These pieces of information formed more than a dozen small scenes.

Among them were scenes of the final exam at the end of the second semester of the second year, scenes of him shopping with Chitose Kazumi, and scenes of him listening to Ichinose Shiori’s complaints.

So, the memory fragments were pieces of time he had spent in the simulated life. These fragments were insignificant, so they neither entered the memory scenes nor were described by the simulation text.

This reward seemed ordinary, but Minami Yuuki was thrilled.

These memory fragments were scenes from the future!

For example, the final exam scenes meant he could now predict the exam questions!

Unfortunately, there were no scenes with lottery numbers or football matches.

As for the exam questions, he wouldn’t need them if he just studied a bit more seriously. However, the scene of talking with Ichinose Shiori contained some potentially useful information.

Minami Yuuki sighed and closed his eyes.

He entered his dream, arriving at the dream theater.

《Yuuki and Nao》

Play!

The little senior is so troublesome; my Nao is still the cutest!

Miu and Rikka are the best in the world!
