My Romance Simulation with Them

All right.

Woman, let me see what kind of impression you have of me.

He extended his finger without hesitation.

Click.

Then--

[Selected candidate: Akane Shinjo; Status: Slightly hostile.]

“?” Nanxiang Shi.

Nanxiang couldn't help but rub his eyes.

Only after confirming that he hadn't misread it did he withdraw his hand.

What's going on?

Nanxiang was somewhat surprised.

It wasn't because I was surprised that 'there are women in this world who don't like him'—although that might be part of the reason.

But most importantly—

"I don't think I did anything to make this woman dislike me, did I?"

Nanxiang frowned her beautiful eyebrows.

Yes.

He probably didn't do anything to make Akane Shinjo dislike him.

Could it be because he always ranked first in his grade, consistently putting Shinjo Akane below him, that Shinjo Akane felt jealous and resentful towards him?

This reason is clearly untenable.

If Akane Shinjo really cared so much about her grades, she would have felt jealous and resentful towards herself long ago.

It wouldn't have been delayed until today in the first place.

Keep in mind that today is already the fourth day since the results of the last exam were released.

Even if Akane Shinjo is slow-witted, she shouldn't be only finding out about her results today.

So what is the reason for this?

Nanxiang couldn't help but start thinking.

But no matter how he thought about it, Nango felt something was wrong.

To put it bluntly...

He and this new simulated subject had absolutely no real-world connection.

Including today, Nango Toki has never even met Shinjo Akane once.

How could she suddenly become hostile towards me?

He couldn't help but shake his head.

At the same time, he glanced at his current heart rate.

[Current heart rate: 940.]

After being attacked by Goto Ichiri yesterday, kissed and touched, and then thanked her when she left.

Unbeknownst to him, the other party had provided him with another 430 points of affection.

Even back in Nango, one couldn't help but marvel at Ms. Goto's generosity and magnanimity at this time.

"So..."

Nanxiang paused for a moment.

940 points of excitement.

Converted to simulation counts.

That means 3 chances.

Or... how about we try a simulation first?

不 ...

Instead of starting the simulation now, why not get our hands on the information we need to clarify first?

Nango abandoned his plan to start the simulation now.

After all, he had suffered from insufficient intelligence before.

Back when she first simulated Goto Ichiri, she missed her chance with him. In the end, she married Yamada-san and entered the marriage hall, but she got a zero score in the simulation.

And now, the same situation is happening again.

He doesn't even know the most basic information about this Shinjo Akane.

What kind of person is the other person?

What impression do your classmates have of you?

What's his personality like?

300 points of interest is a considerable expense, and we can't just waste it so easily.

So, let's get back to the topic.

How can Nango find out about Shinjo Akane's personal information?

The method is actually very simple—

Nanxiang took out his phone without hesitation.

Then I opened the LINE chat app and selected a profile picture.

[Tokyo's most handsome boy: Kita-kun, excuse me, I have some questions for you.]

Yes.

Although she didn't know Shinjo Akane, that didn't mean Kita Ikuyo, as the school's resident resident, didn't know her.

Third in the second grade... or was it third again?

They should be considered quite well-known among the lower grades.

In addition, there's Kita Ikuyo's interpersonal relationships...

Nanxiang was pondering.

Soon after, I received a reply from Kita Ikuyo on LINE.

[Eek! Be the most radiant person: Senior Nango? I was just discussing with a friend what activities we should prepare for this school festival, sorry for the late reply. Is there anything I can help you with? (Attached is a cute chibi-style girl's emoticon)]

As expected of the socialite of Yucha High School.

Seeing the other person skillfully type out a long string of characters, Nango thought for a moment before replying.

[Tokyo's Most Handsome Boy: I have something to ask you. Do you know Shinjo Akane, who's in the same grade as me?]

The message was sent without hesitation.

Then--

"Shinjo Akane?"

Kita Ikuyo was stunned when she saw the message sent by Nango Toki.

Of course she knew Shinjo Akane, who was in the second year.

She was an absolute beauty.

Not only is she academically excellent and athletically capable, but her perfect smile and social skills also make countless men secretly want to hand her love letters.

but--

Why did Nango-senpai ask Shinjo-senpai about her?

Kita Ikuyo glanced at the message, then couldn't help but look at Goto Ichiri, who was sitting on a school chair with his head down, playing on his phone.

She hesitated for a moment, but still sent a message to Nanxiang Shi.

[Eek! Be the most positive person: What does Nango-senpai want to know about Shinjo-senpai?]

[Tokyo's Number One Handsome Boy: My novel and Shinjo's article will probably be published together in this year's "Ocha" school magazine. Well... I'm more concerned about her writing level, so I wanted to ask you, what kind of person is she?]

"Oh, I see."

Upon seeing this message, Kita Ikuyo finally felt relieved.

[Eh! Be the most positive person: I see. But I'm a first-year student, so I don't know much about Shinjo-senpai's situation. I can only tell Nango-senpai what I know.]

[Wow! Be the most positive person: I heard that Shinjo-senpai has excellent grades and is also quite athletic, practically a perfect superhero type. Oh, and it seems she's very interested in tokusatsu dramas.]

"Tokusatsu drama?"

On the other end of the phone, when Nanxiang saw this line of text, he showed an unexpected expression.

The so-called tokusatsu dramas actually refer to films and television dramas that use special special effects and feature live actors wearing monster suits and tight costumes to perform on stage—this makes the explanation of tokusatsu dramas seem a bit complicated.

But in reality, almost all men have watched tokusatsu (special effects) films to some extent.

For example, the very famous Japanese series such as Ultraman, Kamen Rider, and Super Sentai.

These all belong to the tokusatsu (special effects) genre.

Logically speaking, storylines involving Ultraman fighting monsters and Kamen Riders battling monsters should be more popular with boys.

It was quite unexpected for Nango Toki that Akane Shinjo, as a girl, would like tokusatsu dramas.

[Tokyo's Most Handsome Boy: So, what's Shinjo's personality like?]

[Wow! Be the most sunny person: As for her personality... although I haven't actually met her, I have some upperclassmen friends who have interacted with Shinjo-senpai, and they all say she seems to have a great personality.]

Has a great personality?

Look at this line of text.

Nanxiang couldn't help but glance down at the section showing his simulated candidate status.
