My Strange Tale Love Strategy Simulator

Zhang Ying turned around to face Li Ziqing, who was possessing Cheng Ziqi. Although his body was still instinctively afraid, he still patted his chest and said without hesitation:

"Believe me, we can get out of here!"

A hint of surprise appeared on Cheng Ziqi's contorted face, and she loosened her grip on Zhang Ying's hand.

But only a moment later, she became even angrier, her face contorted more, her grip tightened, and she let out an extremely piercing scream:

"You! You're lying to me!"

The blood flowing from the vocal room surged even faster, staining the entire staircase crimson. The music box's melody intensified, as if someone had pressed the speed-up button, turning the down-key Bird's Poem into a terrifying, incomprehensible tune!

Zhang Ying's heart skipped a beat, the force of which made his palm ache. He bit his tongue lightly, and his right hand formed a calming spell behind his back.

Beads of sweat streamed down his forehead, and he said without hesitation:

"I won't lie to you! I'm the one who dragged you into this, and no matter what happens to you, I'll get you out of here!"

He took a deep breath, walked up to Cheng Ziqi, and looked directly into her face without flinching.

Cheng Ziqi's face fell into astonishment again. This time, she completely released Zhang Ying's hand. Her chin, which had been pulled down, snapped back up, and her empty eye sockets met Zhang Ying's eyes.

As if he had made up his mind, Zhang Ying turned around and knelt down in front of Cheng Ziqi, exposing his back completely to her.

"You must be in a lot of pain! Let me carry you!"

He knelt quietly in front of Cheng Ziqi, slowly closed his eyes, and breathed deeply.

To be honest, there was an element of gambling in his words; he was betting that Li Ziqing still had a shred of humanity and kindness left. His words, seemingly addressed to Cheng Ziqi, were actually meant for Li Ziqing.

He told Li Ziqing that he was someone who would lend a helping hand when others were in trouble.

Success brings joy, failure leads to certain death.

This might explain why there are no penalties for failure in simulator tasks.

Zhang Ying felt that the waiting time was so long; a short moment felt like centuries had passed.

Zhang Ying only opened his eyes when two hands were placed on his shoulders. He saw two fair hands clenching his chest, and Cheng Ziqi's legs were draped over his back.

The gamble paid off!

His chest heaved, his breathing slightly rapid. He stood up from the stairwell, grabbed the railing with one hand, and supported Cheng Ziqi's back with the other, before walking down the stairs.

"Hold on tight, we'll definitely get out of here!"

Zhang Ying carried Cheng Ziqi, or rather, Li Ziqing, down the blood-stained stairwell. The endlessly looping stairwell meant this escape had no end, yet he showed no doubt or complaint, continuing straight down!

Gradually, the amount of blood seeping from the vocal room decreased until it finally stopped completely.

The music box's song grew softer and softer, the shrieking sounds disappeared, and it became a normal bird song.

The blood in the stairwell also became thinner and thinner as Zhang Ying went down the stairs, until not a single drop remained.

Li Ziqing, whom Zhang Ying was carrying on his back, became lighter and lighter until she was almost weightless. Li Ziqing's lips were close to his ear, and a soft whisper escaped his ear:

"goodbye……"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Ying closed his eyes and opened them again. The surrounding scenery changed. The endlessly looping stairwell disappeared, and he was now still in the vocal music room, standing on the podium with a mop in one hand and a rag in the other.

The vocal room was still the same vocal room, except that the music box was gone, Cheng Ziqi was gone, and he was left alone in the entire vocal room.

What just happened felt like an illusion, but he couldn't forget the sense of reality it gave him.

The twilight sky outside the window is about to fall into darkness.

Hey.

The vibration of his phone in his pocket brought Zhang Ying back to his senses, who was still lost in a surreal feeling. He took out his phone and saw that the time was 6:10.

The message Cheng Ziqi sent him.

"I'm sorry, the classmate who was supposed to clean the vocal room with me is absent. I'm currently at a classmate's birthday party, so I'll have to trouble you to clean the vocal room by yourself..."

"So, from the very beginning, I was all alone?" Zhang Ying smiled, shook his head, and turned off his phone.

"Special CG? Is it the special CG I'm thinking of?"

Zhang Ying shook his head, deciding to stop thinking about these things for now and hurry back to the vocal room to finish cleaning. He would study the simulator later; staying here all the time made him feel uneasy.

Even after just surviving a life-or-death situation, he didn't forget to clean the vocal music room thoroughly. However, the door to the vocal music room was opened, and a school security guard outside shouted sternly:

"It's already 6 o'clock, why aren't you home yet?"

"Uncle Security Guard, I'm on duty in the vocal music room. Can I go back after I finish my shift?" Zhang Ying pleaded.

The security guard stated firmly, "No, school rules clearly state that students must leave the school before 6 PM. Go home now!"

Helpless, Zhang Ying could only leave the school, leaving behind an empty vocal room that hadn't been cleaned much.

Looks like someone's in for trouble the day after tomorrow.

However, none of this concerns him anymore.

Walking home, feeling the fresh air on the street, he felt for the first time how wonderful it is to be alive.

He looked up at the already dim sky and the streetlights that had come on; it was getting late. The aroma of stir-fried dishes wafted from the street. Having expended so much energy, he was already starving and just wanted to get home quickly so he could eat his mother's home-cooked meals.

Zhang Ying quickened his pace to get home, but in the alleyway not far from his house, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his eyes!

"Hiss!" Zhang Ying grimaced, gasped, covered his eyes, and cried out in pain!

He felt as if a fire was burning in his eyes, and in immense pain, he lowered his hands from his eyes. The intense pain did not blind him; instead, he saw concentric circles of gray objects in his field of vision.

The simulator panel lit up in front of him.
