The strategy of the other world of the love game

"Excuse me, Mr. Akasaka, what is the name of the character I play, Shirogane's father?"

But Akasaka Akira just smiled mysteriously and did not answer Himekawa Daiki.

"If Akasaka-sensei hasn't decided yet, how about letting me come up with a name for this character?"

Ryoma Esaki, who was standing behind Daiki Himekawa, interrupted.

"Silver Brando, how about this name?"

"Oh? A foreign name? Interesting, I'll consider it."

Akasaka Akira's eyes lit up, and he actually took out his cell phone and wrote the name down in his memo.

After asking this question, Daiki Himekawa also left the stage.

Finally, it was Ryoma Esaki's turn.

The first question that Ryoma Esaki asked stunned Akasaka Akira.

"Teacher Akasaka, I would like to ask, since Shirogane Miyuki likes Shinomiya Kaguya, when Shinomiya Kaguya was in danger, Shirogane Miyuki should not be leisurely eating fried noodles or playing dress-up play with the maid, right?"

"Uh... Of course, why do you ask such a question?"

Akasaka Akira, who had not yet fallen ill, looked puzzled.

"Well, very good, Mr. Akasaka, please be sure to remember your answer today."

Ryoma Ezaki said solemnly.

"Also, this is a romance comic, right? There shouldn't be any business wars, infighting among wealthy families, or other such cliche plots, right? Right?"

"Shinomiya Kaguya wouldn't suddenly want to be a photographer at a critical moment when her family's survival is at stake, right?"

"Uh... classmate, are you stimulated by something?"

Akasaka Akira looked worried.

——Guess who stimulated me!

Jiang Qiliangzheng said angrily.

After repeatedly emphasizing that the bad things done by Mr. Ooka had been eliminated, Ryoma Ezaki left with satisfaction.

He has tried his best. If Akasaka Akira turns into Da Aka Sensei again, or even does something worse, there will be nothing he can do.

"Oh my! Everyone's performance was so wonderful that it made me want to create a comic with the actors as the protagonists."

Before leaving, Akira Akasaka gave a final speech.

"But it's not easy to express yourself if I limit myself to actors... Hmm, how about drawing a comic with the theme of the entertainment industry?"

"Teacher Akasaka! As a die-hard fan of Kaguya, I implore you to focus on this work first, finish drawing Kaguya with all your heart and soul, leave a perfect ending, and then think carefully about the next work. Please!"

Ryoma Esaki sent out his final ripple.

After bidding farewell to Akasaka Akira, Ryoma Esaki suddenly felt reluctant to leave this gaming world.

Although he has only been here for a little over a month, this world already has many things that he would miss.

Whether it's Ruby Hoshino and Akane Kurokawa, who are only one step away from coexisting in his harem, or the sequel to "Kaguya" created by Akira Akasaka after hearing his advice, they all make him want to stay in this world longer.

But no.

Ryosaki Ezaki really understood that he couldn't stay in this world forever.

Instead of staying any longer and adding to the memories, it is better to cut the Gordian knot, complete the task quickly and leave.

So, after the rehearsal, after seeing off Ruby Hoshino, Ryoma Esaki called over Akane Kurokawa.

"I want to talk to you about the matter I asked you to do before."

"Ah."

The two came outside the theater and found a secluded place to sit down.

Ryoma Esaki asked Kurokawa Akane straight to the point.

"Are there any new developments in the investigation into Ruby's biological father?"

"Not yet. As you said, I profiled Hoshino Ai and tried to restore her experience during that period, but... I didn't find out who she liked."

Kurokawa Akane responded.

"Ezaki-kun, are you really sure that Hoshino Ai started to change after she fell in love with someone?"

"If not, why did she change so much?" Jiang Qiliangzhen asked, "More importantly, why did she get pregnant?"

"this......"

Kurokawa Akane was speechless.

Even if it doesn't match her profile, the fact that Hoshino Ai is pregnant and has a child is in front of us. It can only be that she fell in love with someone before she got pregnant and was deceived by the other person...

Kurokawa Akane suddenly frowned.

She trusts her own feelings very much because she has perfectly restored countless characters in the past through this kind of profiling.

This investigation into Hoshino Ai, combined with the information provided by Ryoma Esaki, made her understand Hoshino Ai even better than those created virtual characters.

Therefore, Kurokawa Akane believes that his profile of Hoshino Ai should be very accurate.

Hoshino Ai did undergo a huge change when she was around fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was indeed in their LALALAI troupe during that period.

However, Kurokawa Akane could not fully agree with Ryoma Esaki's conclusion that Hoshino Ai fell in love with an actor in the troupe during that time and had a child with him.

But now she couldn't come up with any other inference, she just had a vague feeling, a strange sense of incongruity.

Ryoma Esaki saw Kurokawa Akane's doubts, thought for a while, and then spoke.

"Chiyin, I have handed this matter over to you to investigate. If you have any doubts, you must speak up."

"You don't need to care about my words or my inferences. Just use the information I give you that is confirmed to be correct."

Ryoma Esaki realized that he had been harmed by preconceived ideas several times, and in comparison, Akane Kurokawa's speculation was more credible.

"...No, I just have a feeling now..."

Kurokawa Akane also told the truth.

"I'll contact you once I find out some definite information."

"Well, please."

Ryoma Esaki nodded slightly.

-----------------

In the days that followed, rehearsals for the stage play proceeded in an orderly manner.

Outside of rehearsals, Ryoma Esaki and Akane Kurokawa's investigation never stopped.

But Ryoma Esaki has reached a bottleneck. He can no longer find any more clues or breakthroughs, so he can only pin his hopes on Akane Kurokawa.

"What's wrong, Jiang Qi, you have been looking sad these past few days."

After the rehearsal, Daiki Himekawa saw that Ryoma Esaki had a tense face and teased him.

"Such a simple role shouldn't be difficult for you. Could it be that you are immersed in the role both in and out of the play?"

"Then why don't I accompany you? Come on, call me Oh Do-san."

"... Leave me alone."

Jiang Qiliang gave him a displeased look.

This Daiki Himekawa has a completely different personality from the one in the original work. He has a bit of a mean vibe to him, which Ryoma Esaki doesn't like.

"Tsk, that's boring. I'd better go find my precious daughter."

Daiki Himekawa curled his lips and turned to bother Ruby Hoshino who was still rehearsing seriously.

Ryoma Ezaki was helpless and was about to stop Daiki Himekawa when the phone suddenly rang.

He took out his cell phone, only to see that the caller was Kurokawa Akane.

Ryoma Ezaki answered the phone immediately and said.

"Hey, any new discoveries?"

"Well, let's talk about the details when we meet."

Kurokawa Akane said, and gave an address.

Ryoma Esaki immediately rushed out of the rehearsal room and came to the agreed location to meet Akane Kurokawa.

"How's it going? Any progress?"

As soon as they met, without even bothering to say hello, Ryoma Ezaki hurriedly asked.

Kurokawa Akane was even more anxious than Ezaki Ryoma, and he threw out a long paragraph like a machine gun.

"After returning that day, I always felt that Hoshino Ai's transformation was different from what you speculated, so I investigated the changes in fans' evaluation of Hoshino Ai before and after her transformation, and found that everyone's evaluation was surprisingly consistent."

"They feel that Hoshino Ai has a bit more maternal love, which makes them feel more reliable and want to rely on her more."

"Although Hoshino Ai did become a mother after that period of time, these comments made me realize that we got the cause and effect wrong."

"causation?"

Ryoma Esaki frowned.

"Yes, Jiang Qijun, you have always believed that the change in Hoshino Ai was because she fell in love with someone, and the pregnancy was the consequence of her falling in love with that person."

"But actually it's not. What caused the change in Hoshino Ai was the pregnancy itself."

"The extra maternal love that fans feel is that Hoshino Ai has also put her love for her children into her fans, so they can feel this change."

Ryoma Ezaki pinched his chin and thought for a while, then asked.

"You mean, she didn't get pregnant because she fell in love with someone, but because she wanted to have a child..."

“This is also a suspicious point.”

Kurokawa Akane spoke before Ryoma Ezaki could finish.

"Why did Hoshino Ai suddenly want a child? Who instilled this idea in her?"

"And I didn't get the feeling from her profile that she had ever been in love. Is she the kind of person who would have sex with someone she didn't like just to get pregnant?"

"According to my profile, she is not."

"So where did her child come from?"

"Could it be that Ruby is not her biological child, but adopted?"

Ryoma Esaki speculated based on what Akane Kurokawa said.

But soon, he denied it himself.

"No, that's impossible. If that's the case, Ruby..."

Having said this, he suddenly stopped.

"What happened to Ruby?"

Kurokawa Akane asked.

"No, nothing, but Ruby has proved that she has been with her mother since birth, so...she should not be adopted."

Ryoma Esaki evaded the question.

Ruby Hoshino is the reincarnation of Sarina Tendouji and has had self-awareness since birth.
