The comments section all think I'm a really good person.

You grew up in a very abnormal environment.

Those people put some sharp, pointed "toys" in your hands that could hurt you, and teach you how to make the most of these inconspicuous little toys.

The first time you took someone's life was not at "school," but the night before you were sent to the main family as a member of the Kita-giri branch family.

They blindfold you and place a sharp knife in your hand. The weight of that knife is still etched into your body; you can barely hold it.

Then, they'll push you to an unfamiliar place.

A soft, meowing sound comes to your ear.

You picked up that cat from the roadside. When you brought it home, it was just a kitten with its eyes still closed. With the help of a wet nurse, you would occasionally feed it and hide it in a corner of your room.

You thought this was a privilege you had in this family, but that's not the case at all.

Someone is holding your hand, guiding you to plunge a knife into someone's heart.

You hear the cat howling, but the amount of blood is beyond your imagination.

The feel is off too.

It didn't feel like a cat's touch; it felt more like a human's.

The grip on your hand was so strong that before you could react, the knife plunged powerfully into someone's chest.

Judging from the tactile feedback and the scent you can detect with your nose... it seems to be your accomplice, the wet nurse who was assigned to take care of you from the moment you were born.

You find it unbelievable.

You stood there, bewildered, not fully comprehending what it meant to take the life of your loved one with your own hands.

Even though the wet nurse treated you like a little monster, even though she would point at your head and hurl insults at you with filthy language you couldn't understand when she was drunk, even though she would cut back on your food when she was in a bad mood, even though she wasn't actually very kind to you.

But she's someone who's been with you for the past five years. She's a kind-hearted woman who feels sorry for you, remembers your birthday, and teaches you how to feed kittens.

Even if she's a vicious dog, you'll develop feelings for her after five years.

You hear bursts of cheerful laughter around you as adults, stronger and more robust than you, merrily discuss your "ritual." In your bewilderment, the black cloth covering your eyes is lifted.

You see the wet nurse lying in a pool of blood, and you see the kitten with its neck twisted and thrown on the ground like trash, its soft, cuddly fur stained with dirty blood.

Two pairs of resentful eyes glared at them.

You feel like gagging.

You have completely severed ties with the past five years.

Your life is about to enter the next phase... even though you don't know how that will make a difference.

It's nothing more than leaving this hell, arriving at the next hell, and then starting to learn how to kill, and starting to kill even more people.

You meet your first friend in a daze.

Those are people from your own clan whom you've never met.

Kitagaki Yuko—that's your new boss's name.

really weird.

You think so.

They're just different in name, so why is the other person treated with such respect?

As you stand under the scorching sun, watching the blonde girl surrounded by a crowd from afar, you may still have a smile on your face, but your heart is ice-cold.

She glances up by chance, and your eyes meet.

At this moment, you are not calm enough, nor can you disguise yourself well. The other party happens to catch the disgust that flashes in your eyes.

The other person also had a gloomy expression, and didn't seem to like you.

This is your first meeting with your companions for the foreseeable future.

You stood under the scorching sun like livestock, being picked over. You should have been meek and submissive, but instead, you displayed an arrogant side towards the candidates for the family heir.

It wasn't a good start.

They were even prepared to be eliminated and punished by their clan.

To your surprise, that annoying guy picked you out at first glance.

You have become Kitagawa Yuko's "shadow." From now on, you must pave all the way for her, grow up with her, and never leave her side.

Ugh. You shuddered, feeling that this was starting to feel disgusting.

Fortunately, the other party had the same idea.

She showed you a mask of pain, clearly disgusted with you.

【Fragments of Memory: Beiyuan】Completed.

You hear the system notification and, in a daze, awaken from that memory.

249. Will anyone love you?

The scene of Kitagaki Yuko bringing Kitagarihara home nearly made Uesugi Yuki, who was sitting in front of her computer working on a manuscript, fall to the ground in fright.

The petite, cat-like Yuki looked shocked: "...Yuko? This child is...?"

After returning home, Kitagaki Yuko took the initiative to confess to her the things she had been keeping from her before, regarding the three main families.

Yuki didn't know much about her lover's corrupt family, but at this moment, watching Kitagaki Yuko bring home a child who looked almost exactly like the Silver Garden BOSS, a huge storm raged in her mind.

...Could this be the Silver Garden boss's child? Even if it's not a child, it might be a clone or something...

During the time that Yuki Uesugi spent in the Silver Garden, she was kept very well in the dark by the others.

Because Kita Kirihara issues commands directly through telepathic communication, Uesugi Yuki has virtually no chance of accessing core intelligence unless she chooses not to reveal information.

As someone who inexplicably doesn't care much about world safety and prefers to focus on matters around her, Yuki Uesugi finds that she can live well as long as she doesn't actively seek out information about the Silver Garden.

So, after she made a few tentative attempts to test the waters and realized that her attempts were fruitless, she stayed in the Silver Garden until the recent events that led to her being released and returning home.

After the previous attack, Yuki Uesugi is not so keen on returning to the tower to perform her duties for the time being.

Moreover, she still has many unresolved issues to fill, and having found a source of joy, she plans to slowly complete these impromptu projects first.

Anyway, the Tower has already marked her as dead in its records, so Yuki Uesugi can take a long vacation until she is willing to go back.

But Kitagawa Yuko wasn't so relaxed.

Yuko Kitagawa, who became a double agent for the Silver Garden, wanted to get away as soon as possible after losing contact with the cooperating agency, but she was caught in the vortex of the tower and could not get out immediately.

She had already been slowly planning to pack her belongings and run away, intending to go to the countryside with Uesugi Yuki to live in seclusion. If she could just hold on for a little longer and wait for things to calm down, she could leave.

Unexpectedly, they found Kita Kirihara on the street, who appeared to have mental problems and whose body had reverted to its childhood state.

Kitagawa Kirihara was Kitagawa Yuko's only contact with Silver Garden, and could barely be considered an old acquaintance of Kitagawa Yuko. After the other party disappeared, it caused her a lot of trouble.

Just thinking about this gave Kitagawa Yuko a headache.

However, what she didn't expect was that her own Yuki would react so strongly to Kita Kirihara's presence.

Kitagaki Yuko was confused: "Yuki...?"

The blonde looked very confused. It was normal for her lover to have some contact with Kita Kirihara without her knowledge, but why was Yuki so shocked?

Yuki Uesugi looked at her with an even more confused expression: "...Yuko, don't you know?"

"Know what?" Kitagawa Yuko sensed that some truth was about to be revealed by Yuki. She blinked, nervously awaiting her lover's answer.

"You really didn't know that Miss Kita Kirihara is apparently the boss of the Silver Garden?"

...[From the child's original perspective]...

They were whispering something you couldn't quite understand.

Fortunately, you've gained a little understanding of your character's backstory and have a basic grasp of what kind of situation the character Kitagawa Yuko is.

Judging from the plot of the memory fragments, you should be one year older than Kitagawa Yuko.

But now, your physical age looks like you're only ten years old, while the other person is clearly an adult, probably in their twenties.

Therefore, there must be some problem with you.

Your memory has vanished; you can't recall how you became who you are now.

You deduce that if you didn't become younger as an adult and lose all your memories, then you, at ten years old, were sent to more than ten years in the future.

Isn't that in the comics? It's about a protagonist who's still in middle school being summoned by his future self from ten years in the future, and then saving the world.

There's a possibility that this is the background of the game.

Perhaps you lost all your memories during your journey to the future, and then started over...?

Ok……

It's also possible that, like in "Ming*Ark", after you are awakened from your slumber, you will lose all your past memories and start the main quest as a complete beginner.

And all of these people have crossed paths with you before.

The Kitagawa Yuko in front of me has changed a lot compared to the blond kid in the memory fragment story.

The blonde heiress is arrogant and mischievous, but Kitagawa Yuko has become much more stable and reliable after meeting her lover and getting married... In any case, she exudes a temperament very similar to that of Ooba Nana, gentle and cheerful.

But you know, this guy is essentially a nuisance.

You know that you and Kitagawa Yuko are related, and judging from the plot, your blood relationship with her is not that distant.

The other person seems to be quite tall, and she looks about 50-60% like you in the story.

You think you can look forward to seeing yourself when you grow up; you probably won't be too short.

You wouldn't believe it, but Yuko Kitagawa, who was such a jerk when she was a child, actually managed to find a girlfriend.

She's such a beautiful person...

You sized up the person named "Uesugi Yuki." She seemed somewhat wary of you, but not hostile.

[Uesugi Yuki]: "You really didn't know that Kita Kirihara-san is apparently the boss of the Silver Garden?"

For some reason, you subconsciously think, "Thank goodness the live stream isn't on right now."

When you come to your senses, you feel very confused.
