Tokyo: To reiterate, this is not a dating system.

[Life Correction System successfully loaded]

Aoyama Genji woke up, or more accurately, he was woken up by hunger.

Compared to the hunger in his stomach and the light screen that kept floating in front of him, there were more important things for him to consider.

He struggled to get out of bed, not even bothering to put on slippers, and stepped onto the unfamiliar floor to the sink.

Parting the hair that almost covered his eyes, the image of a beautiful but broken-looking boy came into view—scattered hair fell on both sides of his cheeks, partially obscuring his slightly thin profile, and beneath his high nose bridge, his thin lips, which should have been full of affection, were bloodless.

Genji Aoyama took a deep breath and splashed a handful of cold water on his face.

He hit the jackpot and time-traveled.

Upon realizing this, Genji Aoyama felt his heart begin to pound violently, and a series of non-existent memories flooded his mind.

Genji Aoyama is an orphan who is currently receiving financial support from his guardian and has just started studying in Tokyo.

Interpersonal relationships are quite easy to sort out. Apart from classmates and teachers who are not very familiar with each other at the beginning of the semester, there is only this guardian whom I have never even met in my memory.

In other words, he hardly needed to spend any effort maintaining his predecessor's interpersonal relationships.

This can be considered good news.

Next is "Genji Aoyama," which represents the predicament he is currently facing.

On the day before school started, Genji Aoyama, a naive, simple, and timid boy from the countryside, had just taken out his living expenses for the semester when he was swindled out of most of them by a cunning Tokyoite.

The meager 3000 yen I have left is the result of my predecessor's efforts to cut back on meal expenses. Although I still have some money on my transportation card, it's just a drop in the bucket.

Because his body was in a state of prolonged hunger, Genji Aoyama died of hypoglycemia in his sleep.

The evaluation of Qingshanyuan is ineffective.

The most urgent thing is to find something to eat.

Following his memory, he found the discounted rice ball in the refrigerator that was supposed to be his breakfast the next day, and began to eat it in small bites.

I took out my phone and opened my LINE chat with my guardian.

[Haruka Minatsuki: Your living expenses for this semester have been deposited into your account. Please contact me if you need anything.]

[Aoyama: Thank you for your kindness, Miss Minatsuki!]

This is the last chat log between the two, which took place before the [Tokyo Man Scam] incident.

Why would someone be starving to death but refuse to tell the truth and ask their guardian for more money?

Even with all his memories, Genji Aoyama still couldn't understand this mentality.

[Aoyama: I'm so sorry to bother you at this time, Ms. Minatsuki. I've been having some financial difficulties lately and am struggling to make ends meet. I'd like to ask you to transfer me some more living expenses.]

After swallowing the last bite of food, Genji Aoyama clicked send.

After doing all this, he focused his attention on the light blue screen in front of him.

Genji Aoyama took a deep breath, and felt a pain in his palm from his fingernails pressing against it.

The light screen still floated directly in front of him.

It didn't seem to be a hallucination; he tried to manipulate it with his mind.

This system will filter targets that match your profile, and you will be in charge of making corrections. You will receive rewards when you reach a certain progress level, so please take this seriously.

【Matching】

Match successful

Please check this yourself.

Ok?

This match was successful.

Genji Aoyama continued to operate according to the system prompts. The scrolling text in front of him disappeared, and the light blue interface began to change.

One of the highlighted areas shows:

[Host: Genji Aoyama]

[Basic Information: Stamina 3 (Sub-healthy), Intelligence 8, Charm 9, Money 3500 yen]

[Item: None]

Match count: 1 (increases by 1 per week)

Current correction target: None

[Targets that can be bound to: Yuko Asahi, Haruka Minazuki]

[Current fix: None]

This is the system's main panel.

Because of his brilliant mind, Genji Aoyama immediately grasped the core gameplay.

First, bind the target for correction...

Why is Haruka Minatsuki also on the target list for revision?

We've never met before as guardians, so it's unlikely we'll be able to contact each other in the near future. Let's skip that for now.

Genji Aoyama turned his attention to another name.

【Asahi Yuko】

[Basic Information: Physical Strength 3 (Sub-healthy), Intelligence 8, Charisma 9]

[Information: A poor but ambitious girl who is currently working at a convenience store]

"That's totally me!"

In terms of beauty, intelligence, and physical fitness, this person is no less than him.

He was poor but ambitious, and now he has the same conditions and determination.

After reading Yuko Asahi's intelligence report, Genji Aoyama fell into deep thought.

The problem is coming.

Who is Yuko Asahi?

Memories begin to search: Hakutsuru High School, the courtyard, ranked third in entrance exams, Asahi Yuuko in Class D of the first year...

With an intelligence boost of up to 8 points, the name that had only briefly appeared in the original owner's memory was successfully recalled by Genji Aoyama.

At the same time, he also began to have doubts about the system's matching mechanism.

If knowing only the name was enough to find a match, then Aoyama Genji could memorize the names of all the students at Hakutsuru High School by tomorrow—

Because he had absolutely no idea what Asahi Yuko looked like.

Of course, there might be some kind of matching mechanism.

However, Aoyama Genji's current physical condition is not enough to support him in studying those long lists of precautions that appear when you click on them.

My thoughts drifted back to [Yuko Asahi] on the list. She's from the same school, so it seemed like an easy place to approach her.

Bind it first.

[Host has bound to correction target: Yuko Asahi, correction progress 0%]

Aside from showing the progress of the fix, there was almost no other useful information.

Questions flashed through his dizzy mind, but it was difficult for Genji Aoyama to delve into them in his current state.

I haven't recovered from the effects of low blood sugar. Eating a rice ball slightly relieved my hunger, but the dizziness in my brain barely lessened.

Genji Aoyama casually picked out a set of clothes and put them on. He decided to go to the convenience store.

**********

Five minutes later, he appeared at the door of the nearest convenience store. Although the store was not as large as those large chain stores, it was still fairly well-stocked and equipped.

As Aoyama Genji walked in, he heard a formulaic "Welcome" greeting. He nodded slightly in response and headed straight for the food section. He grabbed a bottle of cola and picked out some discounted fast food.

"Does the food need to be heated?" The slender female clerk's voice remained formulaic, almost devoid of emotion.

"No...no need, thank you for your trouble." Genji Aoyama quickly changed his tune.

He had planned to go back and eat slowly, but when he was about to pay the bill, his eyes unconsciously caught sight of the female shop assistant's slightly flat chest.

The shop assistant's name tag read: Asahi.

is her?

Aoyama Genji remembered that the intelligence report indicated Asahi Yuko was working at a convenience store.

As the female clerk named Asahi heated up the food, his eyes began to search for the duty roster.

17:00-22:00 Yuko Asahi.

is her.

Aoyama Genji's eyes looked as if he had spotted a useful tool.

If any eye drops brand were lucky enough to have him as their spokesperson, their sales might double this year.

Ding……

The system and microwave beeped simultaneously, and Asahi Yuko placed the heated food on the cashier.

Do you have a points card?

Aoyama Genji began to scrutinize Asahi Yuko through the pale blue light screen.

The girl, about his age, had an excessively pale, even sickly complexion. Her features were exquisitely proportioned, making her a beautiful young woman. Her face, which should have been endearing, carried an air of coldness.

If Genji Aoyama were the store manager, he would definitely deduct her salary!

"Do you have a points card?" Asahi Yuko repeated in her emotionless, cold voice.

"no."

"That's 800 yen in total."

"Thanks."

Genji Aoyama paid the bill, took his change, found a seat in the store, and started sipping his cola.

The bubbly, sweet drink went into my stomach, and my blood was practically screaming, craving sugar.

The dizziness in his brain gradually lessened, like a rusted gear being lubricated by engine oil, going from creaking and turning to running smoothly. He finally had the real feeling of "coming back to life".

When the system panel is brought up again, the pop-up window that suddenly appeared at the cashier reappears.

[At 21:30 on April 14th, the host recognized a girl named Asahi Yuuko at a convenience store.]

[Triggering the corrected quest: Establish a romantic relationship with Yuuko Asahi]

[Mission Reward: 100 million yen]

[Task Duration: 1 week]

[Note: After the target and the host establish a certain relationship, a special check-in function will be unlocked. For example: Special Check-in - Accumulating a certain number of days of romance will reward you with money.]

that's all.

Genji Aoyama concluded that the system might have a problem.

Have you officially started a romantic relationship?

Was he really not caught up in some kind of dating game?
