His expression changed.

His voice contained only calmness and an indescribable... reassuring confidence.

Hearing Nanxiang's words, and his tone that seemed to soothe people's hearts.

Nango Mirai was stunned when she heard this.

She instinctively looked at her father.

At this moment, Nango Mirai seemed to understand something.

Why would a mother who was so outstanding during her student days fall so hopelessly in love with her own father?

Because this person in front of me seems to have never shirked his responsibilities...

Nanxiang did not continue speaking.

Simply extend your finger and gently swipe across the phone screen.

Under such actions.

The image on the screen quickly froze.

That was a picture of the pink-haired girl, Matsuzaka Shio, looking up.

Previously, Nanxiang didn't understand what emotions were contained in her expression as she tilted her head back, seemingly looking at something...

But now...

He seemed to understand.

Perhaps hidden beneath Matsuzaka Shio's expressionless face...

There is an indescribable regret, and also an indescribable envy.

She, who was of coming-of-age age just like the Nanxiang sisters on stage, could only stand below the stage and look up at them.

There must be some resentment.

Perhaps there was also resentment towards him as a father.

She complained that she had already appeared at the coming-of-age ceremony.

Even his own father didn't recognize him.

Nango thought of the words Matsuzaka Shio wrote in his letter.

'I will remember her last wish and strive to live on.'

That's what they say.

But what was she really thinking?

There must still be some resentment, right?

After all, he is absolutely unfit to be a father.

He had no obligation to raise her, nor did he provide her with any fatherly care or emotional support.

What exactly is Matsuzaka Shio thinking?

The details of the time in Nanxiang are unknown.

He could only see it through this one photo.

Think and imagine through that letter you wanted to write but couldn't continue due to the limited space on the paper...

Nanxiang sighed softly.

At that moment, he truly wished he could have the ability to travel through time.

Putting aside everything else.

At the very least, Matsuzaka Shio should experience the same stable and peaceful life as her older and younger sisters.

He was thinking about it.

then--

[Ding—You have obtained the 'Alternative Route Card'—from her in the future.]

A crisp notification sound suddenly rang in my ears.

"what?"

The sudden emulator notification sound made Nango Toki show a slightly surprised expression.

He put down Nanxiang Future's phone, then looked up at the pale blue page that suddenly popped up in front of him.

【'Another Route Card'—She from the Future:】

My soul trembled, a thousand words unspoken within me, but those moments will never return.

Everything returns to square one; you and she are no longer connected. Even with a heart full of regret, it can only be expressed on a simple piece of paper.

[In the photo, she is silent, gazing upwards.]

Envy? Joy? Jealousy? Resentment...? When time turns back, though not all regrets can be undone, what choice will you make?

[A one-time use item costing 1200 Heart Points. Activating this route card will take you to that time... perhaps... there's still a chance to salvage the relationship between you and her.]

1200 points of excitement?

She's from the future?

The simulation page that suddenly appeared before his eyes was practically telling Nango that as long as he used 'her from the future,' he would have a chance to salvage his relationship with Matsuzaka Shio.

but--

That's 1200 heart points!

Even though Nango Toki's relationship with Matsuzaka Sato has been progressing well these past two days.

But the accumulated heart rate is only around 1890.

If we were to simulate a scenario, 1200 heart points could be used to simulate four scenarios in total.

You can experience it yourself through a simulation.

Is it a bit... to use such a tool simply to change things that haven't happened yet in the future?

"It's a complete bargain!"

Nanxiang made his decision very decisively, almost without hesitation.

He had been holding back his anger after reading Matsuzaka Shio's letter, with nowhere to vent it.

The simulator prompt that suddenly popped up in front of him immediately piqued his interest.

It's just a simple 1200 points of affection.

This is nothing at all!

Even if it's something unpredictable, or even something that hasn't happened yet in the future.

But now, a chance to salvage the situation is presented to Nango Toki.

Since that's the case, there's nothing to hesitate about.

He handed Nango Mirai's phone to her, then turned to Shinjo Akane: "Akane, I'm a little sleepy for now, can I sleep here for a while?"

"Huh...? I don't have any problems."

Akane Shinjo gave Nango a strange look.

One second Nango was full of ambition and wanted to change the future, how come the next second he just wanted to lie down and sleep?

However, she had no reason to refuse Nango.

After all, this was the first time the other party had rested at his own home.

Maybe I can take a couple more pictures of the other person sleeping while they close their eyes to rest in the south.

She agreed.

On the other hand, Nango Mirai had no reason to refuse.

Nanxiang found a fairly comfortable sleeping position and lay down, then looked at the 'She from the Future' route card in front of her.

There was no hesitation.

He simply reached out and clicked.

[Spend 1200 Heart Points to activate this item? Yes/No?]

The simulator's prompts popped up in front of me.

Without the slightest hesitation, Nanxiang clicked 'Yes'.

Consciousness began to sink at this moment.

At the same time, images and simulated text began to flash before my eyes.

[The default time selected is: Nanxiang Sisters' Coming-of-Age Ceremony Day]

['She from the Future' activated.]

......

Before us is the reception area.

Decorate the scene with abundance.

A constant flow of people.

The table was adorned with a sumptuous feast.

The figures in the corner were discussing things in hushed tones and with smiles.

Everything looked so festive and joyful.

This atmosphere of being immersed in happiness and joy is normal for everyone.

Today is the day that the daughter of the Nanxiang family is celebrating her coming-of-age ceremony.

From a distance, you can even see the shadows of Yamada's parents, Goto's parents, Ijichi Seika, and others.

As relatives from the southern countryside, they sat together and talked.
