Chapter 397 It Will Be Difficult

2 month 9 day.

Two o’clock in the morning.

【档21:2024，12.11，06.32（需202点数）】

【…】

[File 87, 2025, 0105, 10.36 (2 points required)]

A translucent text box was floating in front of Su Ming’s eyes.

No matter how you look at it, the archives on every page are correct. The total number is indeed 87.

But the file 21 I just read has changed.

There can only be one conclusion. There are more than 87 archives, maybe 88, maybe… hundreds or thousands.

If the self in the saved game also has the ability to read the saved game, then he will only read the saved game when there is no other way.

purpose?

motivation?

“call.”

Su Ming sighed.

Looking towards the living room, I saw Nogizaka had entered the bathroom and was taking a shower without me noticing.

On the sofa were the gifts she had prepared.

And, probably, the clothes I will see myself in tomorrow.

2 month 9 day.

Three o’clock in the morning.

If you want to know the reason.

I just followed what I remembered in my head and came to the vicinity of the university.

Nogizaka was studying at Kyoto University of Foreign Studies. Not far away across the street was Kyoto University, the leading university in the Snow Country.

The university where An Xiaoxi attends.

I have come here many times to wait for her. The reason why I often come to Kyoto is very simple, to take care of her and Jiang Mengying.

Is that right?

“Clap.”

Su Ming lit a cigarette and paced along the road.

It’s too late.

There was no one on the road, no cars in sight, and almost no noise except the sound of the wind.

The smoke I exhaled dissipated under the streetlights, and the gradually dissipating fog was completely opposite to what I was thinking. I always felt that… something was missing.

Where did you spend the money you saved in File 21?

I have never changed my computer. It’s the laptop that has been with me for a long time.

The rent for a single room is 500 RMB including water and electricity. I rarely buy new clothes. As long as they are not broken, I will continue to wear them. I don’t care about other people’s opinions.

Entertainment…Except for occasional massages at regular shops, I have never spent much. I have worked in Dongshi for more than ten years, but I have visited several of the most famous attractions or places for eating, drinking and having fun in Dongshi.

No money sent home. No home at all.

An Shiyao is not short of money and it is impossible for her to need her own money… On the contrary, she always wants to give herself money.

After rebirth, why should I work part-time and study part-time? It doesn’t make sense, then Chunchun has to endure the hardship.

2 month 9 day.

Four o’clock in the morning.

Su Ming returned to the rental house in Nogizaka.

one way or another.

I promised to come see her before I go back. I can’t break my promise just because I’m confused.

The lights in the apartment had long been turned off.

“…”

Su Ming didn’t knock on the door because he knew the password to the electronic lock.

There is a light next to the door.

After opening it, it is easy to see that Nogizaka has specially placed a clothes rack in the living room, with ironed down jackets and skirts without any wrinkles hanging there, and loafers with not so high heels polished very brightly. Maybe she has given up high heels, right?
In the room, she lay on her side on the bed, hugging the pillow tightly. Her white and tender feet unconsciously stretched out, swaying slightly with her breathing.

There is a prepared gift box on the coffee table.

Very refined.

There are a lot of miscellaneous items piled up on the side, including brand new watches, mobile phone cases, men’s perfumes, walnut bracelets… and so on. They are probably all potential gifts, right?

perfume……

Perhaps, her idea was to give away something that no one else had ever given her, something that she didn’t seem to have at the moment.

Untie the bow of the red gift box.

It was a neatly folded scarf, light green in color.

It is very light in the hand.

“……uncle?”

Probably, he was woken up by the noise of opening gift boxes.

“You scared me. Huh… I was just thinking that no one would choose to steal things here except my uncle. It’s all under surveillance. And during the New Year, the inspectors from the Snow Country patrol very frequently. I saw them both times I went out.”

Footsteps approach.

“I am a thief?”

Su Ming put on the scarf. It was quite warm.

“He’s a thief. He opened the gift box even though I hadn’t given it away yet. He didn’t even change the clothes he had prepared.”

She was wearing pajamas. Maybe it was because she didn’t like the hassle, or maybe it was because the air conditioner was on and it wasn’t cold, so she only had pajamas and no pajamas, so most of her white and tender thighs could be seen.

“Actually, I haven’t decided whether to give this as a gift. Although I think no one would give a green scarf as a gift, light green is the popular color this year… But, wouldn’t it be a bit weird?”

“…”

Is it green?
“I always feel like, as if someone has given me something like this.”

Is it an illusion?

Su Ming did have this sense of déjà vu.

“Eh? No way! I chose such an obscure color, and someone has ever given it to me?”

“Probably not. I remembered it wrongly.”

No matter how Su Ming searched his memory, he could not find anyone who had ever given him anything green.

“That’s good.”

“…”

A little silence.

Su Ming could feel the warm face against his back, and the white hands hugging him from the front.

“Uncle, what should I do?”

“Ok?”

“I’m too sleepy. If uncle comes now, it means… he won’t come tomorrow.”

“Sleep if you want.”

“But… I won’t be able to see it tomorrow.”

“I’ll be back on the 7th or 8th.”

“We won’t see it this year.”

“Then come back with me. Just say you are Yao’s cousin.”

“really?”

“real.”

“It’s better not to. Hehe.”

She leaned closer and lowered her voice. “The scarf is not all the gifts. The ones hanging on the shelf… are.”

January 2

Five o’clock in the morning.

“Uncle, you really don’t mind?”

“will not.”

“But I want to show my uncle a different way of dressing.”

“Already seen it.”

“Peeping doesn’t count… well.”

“Go to sleep.”

“…”

Maybe she had fallen asleep.

Su Ming held the phone to her face and unlocked it. Turn off the alarm for tomorrow… no, today at 6 o’clock.

Go to bed at 3 o’clock and get up at 6 o’clock. What kind of superman is this?
‘The dream game. ‘

Lying down, Su Ming muttered to himself.

[It is expected that the upgrade will be completed after 608:41:14. Players can then view more game content and confirm some new agreements.]

In addition to saving the files, should I also pay attention to new trials?
Next time, I should refuse it, right?
You can’t just continue watching the saved game whenever you want, you need to earn points.

Instead of creating anxiety, it is better to spend the New Year peacefully.

“call.”

Su Ming took a deep breath and got up.

Take the lipstick on Nogizaka Kaoru’s desk.

Sex is not the only proof of a relationship. Or rather, it is the only thing that can prove… that both parties have made some emotional progress, and they will feel happy that it can happen. They are happy that they are attractive.

Necessary, but not so necessary.

Who said that?
Is love without sex not love?
I can’t remember if it was Yao or someone else who said it.

Anyway…

Since I didn’t prepare any gifts, I had to make them now.

2 month 9 day.

morning.

Dongnan Expressway Service Area.

My father-in-law insisted on sitting in the passenger seat, and the atmosphere in the car was very strange.

then……

“What can I say about you? My daughter is married, and you, an old man, are happy to be called the Empress Dowager over there, right? Now you are ruining the atmosphere.”

“Dad, Mr. Su Ming is really good to us.”

“Dad, are you going to keep a straight face until we get to my brother-in-law’s hometown?”

“…”

Led by the mother-in-law, the three women took turns to “persuade” the father-in-law.

It was visible to the naked eye that the face was becoming more and more distorted.

“Who is happy to be called the emperor?”

“Does this kid think I don’t know? He didn’t even stay at home last night.”

“…”

It turned out to be the case.

After all, no matter how hidden it was, I didn’t ask Xiaoye to clear the data. It was normal for it to be seen by the surveillance.

“That’s why I asked Mr. Su Ming to go. I urged him many times before he agreed to go. If he gets angry, he can just scold me and say that I am not doing my best.”

“Ah? Did my brother-in-law go out yesterday? No wonder Daddy is angry. Don’t be angry, Daddy. Xiaoxi, go talk to my brother-in-law.”

“…”

What a smart man my father-in-law is!
How could he not know that his two precious daughters were performing a duet?
cough.

Su Ming wanted to tell him to stop singing. If he continued, his father-in-law might really want to stab him. Didn’t you see that his face turned pale?
2 month 9 day.

Night.

We drove past several service areas and were only one stop away from our destination, the exit.

“Hey, brother-in-law.”

An Xiaoxi took advantage of An’s father going to the bathroom and sneaked up to Su Ming.

Talk in a very low voice.

“Did you go to see Xiaoxun?”

“See you.”

“Then why didn’t you change your pants?”

“Why change?”

“Something’s wrong! I clearly remember that Xiaoxun prepared a lot. It’s impossible that she doesn’t know how to do anything… I didn’t sleep all night and didn’t feel anything.”

“Don’t use that weird ability.”

“It’s not like I want to use it! And it was given to me by my brother-in-law! It was so uncomfortable to have this ability at first. I couldn’t sleep every day. I couldn’t concentrate in class either.”

“Stop.”

“Hehe, but later… after I got used to it, I felt that it was pretty good.”

“do not talk.”

“I thought that I was too open… my brother-in-law would look at me with tinted glasses, but now it doesn’t matter. Well, it doesn’t matter how open I am. If you ask me, my sister might not be as open as I am. The first thing I did when I arrived at my brother-in-law’s hometown was to persuade my sister to come and serve with me…”

“…Xiao Xi, what can’t you do? What do you want me to do together?”

“?!”

An Xiaoxi turned around and was almost scared to death.

“Sister, are you making any noise when you walk?”

“So, what is it that you can’t let go of? What do you want to get me to do together? Hmm?”

An Shiyao reached out and grabbed her face.

“No, nothing! It hurts!”

“…”

I reminded you not to say it again, but you just won’t listen.

Are you behaving yourself now?

2 month 9 day.

late at night.

Back home, my aunt and her family all stayed up all night.

“Thank you for your hard work, in-laws. You’re tired and have to carry so many things.”

“It’s OK. Xiao Ming is the one driving. They are just ordinary things, so it’s good that they don’t cause any trouble.”

“Why would it cause trouble?”

“…”

The mother-in-law took the father-in-law to say hello, while An Shiyao and her sister followed behind Su Ming.

“…”

The air conditioner is on.

Some were playing mahjong, and a few younger ones were playing mobile games.

“Yao, what do you think…what should I call that person?”

“Ah? What do you mean I think Mr. Su Ming doesn’t know?”

“Why do you think I know?”

“Why would Mr. Su Ming not know and ask me?!”

“Or you can go ask my aunt for me.”

“Why should I go? I won’t go!”

“Then don’t shout.”

“How is that possible? I just got here and you’re already so rude…Xiaoxi, go ask.”

“?”

An Xiaoxi pointed at her face and said for a long time, “Me? I choose to follow my mother.”

2 month 10 day.

0 points.

“Crackling——”

The prepared fireworks were launched into the sky ahead of time.

“Happy New Year!”

People at both tables raised their glasses together.

Sister An Shiyao did her best to give red envelopes to all children, 200 yuan, not too much, not too little.

I also received a red envelope from my aunt.

Moreover, both sisters got it.

“I can’t believe Xiao Ming would do such a thing… But if you really don’t mind.”

“…”

In exchange for the two red envelopes, Su Ming was taken to a small room by his aunt and scolded.

But it’s what I deserve.

My mother-in-law has already done all the beginning, I can’t just sit back and enjoy the results, right?
“Aunt will never look down on you. But this kid… I really don’t know what good fortune he had in his previous life.”

“Then, there’s no need for so many people to know. Xiao Ming doesn’t like those relatives anyway. If it’s appropriate, our family will see how to move to Dongshi later. Anyway, my child…your nephew, is planning to go to school in the downtown area of ​​Dongshi.”

“…”

“Aunt, if there is anything I can help you with, I will definitely help you. What would you like to study, nephew?”

“Hey, don’t help him now. If that bastard can’t pass the exam, let him go to a technical college on his own. Everyone is responsible for his own life. Even if you help him up, he’s still a pile of mud.”

“…”

An Shiyao and her sister chatted with their aunt, while Su Ming was watching over his little nephew.

I saw him playing a battle royale game on his phone.

“Brother, I’m dying. Come and save me.”

The team member should be a girl.

“Come on, come on, I’m coming~”

But, it doesn’t have to be clamped like this, right?
“Uncle, I’m not exaggerating. Even if I don’t go to school, she will still support me.”

“I was given a skin worth several hundred dollars yesterday.”

“Look.”

“…”

Skin, not at all erotic. Wearing too tightly, Yu Suming would never buy it.

out of curiosity.

After Su Ming sent Xia Ye a “Happy New Year”, he also asked her to help him find out what his nephew’s online girlfriend looks like.

“Hey little brother, I have a question.”

“What?”

My nephew’s hands were rubbing the tempered glass screen protector frantically. He was the only one left in the team, but he still won the game.

Words like “Brother is so awesome” kept coming out of the microphone, which made his young face turn a little red.

“Do you like tanks?”

“What tank? Tiger tank? I have a model. I haven’t played with it for a long time. I’m not a child.”

“…”

Forget it.

This is fate.

What about tanks?
At least he didn’t cheat his nephew out of his money, but bought him a skin. People can’t abandon true feelings just because of appearance.

“Little brother.”

Su Ming stood up and patted his shoulder. “I hope you won’t be a person who judges people by appearance. True feelings are more important than appearance.”

“What? Uncle, you should go play mahjong and don’t bother me. She might get angry later.”

“…”

2 month 10 day.

Three o’clock in the morning.

Su Ming’s house was also cleaned up, and even a lot of new things were purchased.

Where was the dressing table in the house originally?

Only one room has air conditioning. This is also very strange… Why is the air conditioner installed in the master bedroom instead of the second bedroom where I sleep?
In the past, did you sleep in the second bedroom?
The quilt on the bed and other things looked like they were all newly changed by my aunt. The floor was shiny.

Two-storey building.

Originally, only the upstairs had been painted with the simplest paint. Now the downstairs has also been painted, and the paint on the upstairs has been retouched. Just looking at the interior, it is not much different from the apartment I rented in the city.

My father-in-law, mother-in-law and An Xiaoxi live downstairs.

An Shiyao was upstairs with Su Ming. After all, An Xiaoxi was about to follow him upstairs… His father-in-law’s eyes were like knives. At least he had to pretend on the surface, right?
“Click, click, click…”

But unfortunately, the bed was not replaced with a new one.

Probably because it has been too long, the bed frame underneath has rotted away. Whenever you move, there is a sound.

“Don’t tremble, you’ll be heard.” “I’m just turning over.”

“Don’t turn over! If they hear it, they will definitely think it’s that kind of…”

“So you can be shy too.”

“…”

“hiss.”

The waist is twisted.

2 month 10 day.

4 points in the early hours.

An Xiaoxi came up stealthily.

Hugging a pillow.

“I thought my sister and brother-in-law had already started.”

“Crack-“

As soon as she got into bed, the bed frame screamed.

“Wow, this is the feeling of the times, right?”

“What the hell is that sense of age? Just be quiet!”

“Crack, crack—”

“Xiao Xi!!!”

“Are you shy, sister? If you shout so loudly, mom will hear you.”

“…”

As a matter of course, she lay down next to Su Ming and snorted, “It’s not fair. Why should I sleep downstairs and listen to the creaking sounds?”

“My aunt has accepted me. I am also married in a formal way.”

“Then you stay here, I’ll go down.”

An Shiyao really couldn’t stand the sound of the bed frame.

“No.”

“How long will my sister postpone it? I’ve noticed that my sister always has the loudest voice. She seems to be able to do anything, but the fact is that she has done nothing. Before she had the baby, she said she would do it after the baby was born, and she even teased me that I must be a coward.”

“Now, the time is right, the place is right, and the people are right. Tongtong is too young to stay at home, and is taken care of by a childcare worker. And it’s tacitly agreed that I can come here. My aunt won’t say anything. Although my father is unhappy, he has no choice but to accept it.”

“When Tongtong grows up, there won’t be such an opportunity.”

“So, I want to compare now to see who is more shy, my sister or me.”

“Eh? Wait, wait a minute!”

2 month 10 day.

It’s half past four in the morning.

“Behave yourself. You can do whatever you want when you get home.”

“Do you really want to piss off the old man? Really. Xiaoxi, if you want to sleep here, go ahead, but don’t make any trouble.”

“…”

My mother-in-law came up with her coat on, and everything became quiet.

2 month 10 day.

4:40 am.

“Click, click, click.”

“Excessive!”

“Mom came over and told us to behave ourselves, and she went downstairs and did the same thing as Dad…”

An Xiaoxi puffed up her face.

“Stop talking. Will it be different later? We have to stay here for a week.”

An Shiyao breathed a sigh of relief.

Her cheeks are still red because An Xiaoxi had just torn off a button.

“…”

Su Ming could understand.

Maybe, the mother-in-law was just trying to comfort the father-in-law who was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.

If I had raised two cabbages with great effort for 20 years, and then they stood up and kicked me out after paying for them, and I could only listen downstairs, I would really want to kill them.

“Brother-in-law, hehe… they can’t care about us now. Just do it quietly.”

“Xiaoxi, shut up.”

“…”

Besides, Su Ming’s mind was not on this aspect. There would be plenty of opportunities to do it together in the future.

“Brother-in-law?”

Seeing Su Ming get up, An Xiaoxi also sat up.

“I’m going to the bathroom.”

“Huh? That’s a good idea! The bathroom can work, too! And I’ve seen it, the bathroom at my brother-in-law’s house is super big.”

“Listen to your sister and go to sleep.”

“Eh?”

Instead, An Shiyao was stunned. “Actually… if Mr. Su Ming really wants to, as long as it’s not too much and I can tolerate it…”

It seemed that the key words were triggered, evoking her strange maternal instinct.

His face was getting redder and redder.

“I’m just going to the bathroom. Let’s go to sleep.”

2 month 10 day.

5 points in the early hours.

Su Ming went to the master bedroom and looked around for a long time.

The furnished desk, wardrobe, bed, some souvenirs… bills all proved that I had lived in the master bedroom before.

I also asked my aunt.

Who lives in the second bedroom?

It means that my parents…lived there when they were alive.

There was nothing in the second bedroom, except for the empty closet and a bed.

The problem is this, even if it is the same as what my aunt said, why should I endure the hardship? It is impossible not to turn on the air conditioner because of the electricity bill.

“Mr. Su Ming?”

Probably because he had been out for too long, An Shiyao was worried and came over.

“What are you doing here?”

“…I miss you.”

“…”

She said nothing, but walked up to him, blinking.

Stand on tiptoe slightly.

A fleeting warmth. A scent.

“From now on, you will miss me together with me.”

“You are still alive, what do you miss?”

“Really? Do you understand romance?”

“…”

“Can you sleep?”

“Ok?”

“If you can’t sleep, you can do something else here. It shouldn’t be heard.”

“You want to sneak away?”

“What are you talking about? I know from Xiaoxi’s expression that she wants to embarrass me… I don’t want to. Even if I have to be embarrass myself, I have to do it in an environment I can accept. Not here.”

“She’s not stupid. If you don’t come back in ten minutes, she will definitely come out to look for you.”

“Then Mr. Su Ming, hurry up, three minutes!”

“…I can’t do that.”

“It can be done!”

“It can’t be done.”

“Then go back by yourself and let Xiaoxi be quiet first. I won’t come back early.”

“Let’s go for a walk.”

“Eh?”

An Shiyao seemed a little surprised, “Now?”

“I’ll take you to set off the fireworks.”

In fact, Su Ming just wanted to walk around a bit more and see if he could remember anything.

“Love without sex is still love.”

“what?”

“Didn’t you say that?”

“I didn’t say that. But it’s strange to hear such words from Mr. Su Ming.”

“Ok?”

“I, I’m not saying that Mr. Su Ming is lustful. I’m just… used to Mr. Su Ming being attracted to me. And, if he’s not amorous, there won’t be a child. Really, what are you telling me to say…”

“…”

Not what she said.

Who said that?
2 month 10 day.

Six o’clock in the morning.

The benches at the entrance of the supermarket in the town have long been covered with spots and rust.

“Why do you want to go out for a walk when it’s so cold?”

“Is it not good? Xiaoxi, your mind is full of color waste?”

“Tsk, sister, a full man doesn’t know the hunger of a hungry man, and my ability…”

“shut up!”

“…”

The two sisters were just having a normal quarrel.

Su Ming sat calmly in the chair, recalling the past with Jiang Mengying.

Once, I was framed here.

Why was he angry? Was he just being framed?
Why would a person go to the supermarket to buy groceries every day? I am the type who can survive by eating some pickled mustard and rice, and will never waste extra time.

I always feel like, really… something very important is missing.

In fact, it is the fundamental reason why I can become what I am now.

[Task: You already know that An Xiaoxi has forbidden feelings for you, but you are too embarrassed to say it.]

【Please try to give her a warm hug and give her confidence. 】

“Hey…why is it only Xiaoxi?”

An Shiyao threw away the fairy wand in her hand and snuggled up to Su Ming, even putting her cold hands into Su Ming’s clothes to absorb warmth.

“Sister, aren’t you afraid of being seen?”

“Who would come out at this time? Today is Chinese New Year.”

“Sister, come and make a heart shape with me here with my brother-in-law.”

“?”

“…”

“No, where are you putting it? You’re making a fucking love sign! It’s too, too erotic…”

“Is this the level of being awkward? Sister Jiang told me that Sister Yun Que and the others even used the plot in the book to treat their brother-in-law. Sister is totally out of date.”

“what?”

“…”

In other words.

Aren’t all the necessary conditions to maintain myself into the person I am now?

There is also a lot of new news on mobile phones.

[Master, now we finally have a way to build base stations in the sea area. But the phone bill is very expensive.]

【Happy New Year, Master.】

【Picture, jpg】

[Ah, this is so annoying… The internet speed is so slow. This is obviously the first picture I posted.]

It was a picture of Noelle wearing a furry but revealing New Year’s dress.

[Big brother, Xiaoye, please check. Big brother’s nephew’s online dating partner is dating three people at the same time.]

This is not a question of whether my nephew cares about appearance or not.

It’s a fish.

【Big Brother, Happy New Year】

【Video.avi】

The New Year’s greeting video sent by Xiaoye was quite normal. She wore a very formal cheongsam and pulled Avril, who looked reluctant, to send her blessings.

Skylark’s…

[This video violates the rules. If you have any objections to the AI ​​review, please appeal]

Isn’t this the software developed by Xiaoye?
What are the videos that cannot pass the review in Xiaoye’s database?
Cher’s blessing was official. Too official.

[On behalf of the Eagle Kingdom Royal Family, we sincerely invite you, Earl Plato… to attend the royal ceremony at Windsor Castle on February 2025, 2. 】

The ceremony shouldn’t be important.

Just want to see myself.

There are a lot more.

They are all quite normal, for example, Duoduo plans to visit the Snow Country after the New Year, and Jiang Mengying wants to learn flower arrangement.

What exactly am I missing?
Does it really matter whether there are 88 archives or an infinite number?
The new files I saved were newer than the other files. Maybe there was no crisis at all… it was just creating anxiety.

“Let’s go back.”

So, let’s ignore it for now. Points can’t be accumulated in one day.

Hold two hands at the same time and let go of both hands at the same time.

This doesn’t prove anything. Physical contact can only prove that you have the body, and holding hands or not doesn’t mean how much affection you have.

2 month 10 day.

morning.

Winter City, inside the laboratory.

“The keyboard is broken too. Then you want to eat, Xiaoyou doesn’t know. Don’t make a fuss if you’re hungry.”

“…”

Everyone left, only Xia You was left.

She had to pay attention to the remaining limbs of her main body and Ye Ye in the incubator at the same time.

“Why are you shy?”

“If you weren’t shy… you’d be my wife.”

“Hmm. Mmmmm…”

She was irritable.

But there is nothing we can do.

I can even foresee that I will choose to run away next time I see Su Ming. That feeling of just reaching out my hand… I can’t face it at all.

“Hey, you’re still there?”

A figure walked over.

Tokugawa Airi.

“…”

“It looks like we’re the only ones celebrating New Year together. Although, I don’t really care for holidays.”

“A love rival.”

For Xia You, it was jealousy that she realized belatedly.

“Love rival? You’re right, it seems like it’s just you, Ye Ye and the kitchen girl.”

“…”

“Come and practice with me. I want to test the results. By the way, I’m a little angry. Ming seemed to treat the previous visit to the dojo to see me as the last time this year. Obviously, I prepared a lot of things. I really wanted to repay you. But he didn’t come. There is no news.”

“…”

Xia You suddenly felt less jealous.

All the same, no one has a monopoly.

But jealousy turned into another direction.

This human is upset about not seeing him again, and about having to wait many days before seeing him again. He is angry.

As for myself, it’s because… I don’t know how to face it.

Luxurious troubles, annoying human beings.

The story of the fox repaying a favor was clearly a summary of human knowledge shared by my sister, but in the end I didn’t use it, but they all did. So angry.

2 month 10 day.

morning.

There was no one in the lab.

There is a new input conversion device in the window. But it will be monitored and recorded.

【Jealous, right?】

[He is living a happy life, but you are only tied to me. ]

So, it chose to use its tentacles to change shape and turn into text.

【…】

I am very happy

[He is forgetting you little by little, everyone is forgetting you. ]

【Oh】

[I won’t be anxious anymore. I will wait until you are completely forgotten and you can’t see any hope, only the endless days of being tied to me… then I will eat you.]

【Oh. 】

[Haha, I can already feel the dopamine you are unconsciously secreting. Lying is useless to me.]

【Oh】

[…I’m going to eat this up, absolutely.]

The meat block raised the input device, but held back and typed in “I’m hungry. Very hungry. I’ll say anything.”

[You said you wanted to eat everything here, but you asked my sister-in-law to give you food. Useless thing.]

[…Shut up! Just wait and see!]

【…】

Dopamine secretion?

Su You thought about it.

Maybe I did have some mood swings. For example, I saw that they all liked my brother. Going home together, I could imagine my brother being scolded by my aunt, and then accepting Sister An and the others as a matter of course.

Sure, many people will envy you.

Those who used to look down on me, thinking that they would have a miserable life with a burden like me, would now start to curry favor with me.

I don’t know if there are people like me in this world.

But it’s on TV.

Long Kui. She was willing to be a sword spirit. She became a magic sword. She also did not ask for anything in return, and she had no desire to “get”.

As long as human will is not interfered with by others and one does not respond to the will of others, one can be free of desires and demands.

But I…had already discovered it.

If a person does not respond to anyone’s will, it is easy to lack the motivation and reason to live.

I have the right motivation and reasons, so I can still be a human being.

Does it matter which way you live?

On the one hand, she watched her brother and their warm life gradually being separated.

On the one hand, you play your role and become the ‘spirit’ of the game.

The former will not know how to live after losing the motivation to work hard, while the latter will continue to play its value forever.

No matter how you look at it, the latter is better.

I am quite satisfied now.

After all… no matter how much I study, I can’t find the motivation to need more care like them. It seems that I don’t have to be taken care of in any way, I just want my brother to be happy.

but.

Maybe… a little sad. But it didn’t affect my ability to continue to control the monsters.

In the future, it will be very difficult to have a sister as cute as me.
