The strategy of the other world of the love game

After all, he had just been unconscious for several hours and he was no longer sleepy.

Well, I have to make up for the sleep tomorrow before class.

But at this moment, Ryoma Esaki suddenly came up with a genius idea.

Can't I take advantage of this time to finish the game again so I can be sleepy enough to fall asleep?

It has been almost ten days since the last time I cleared the level, and the cool-down period has long passed.

During these ten days, Ryoma Esaki has been slow to start the next game, mainly because he is still confused about the situation after the last game.

After meeting Ruby Hoshino today, although there are still many doubts that have not been resolved, Jiang Qiliang's worries have been mostly eliminated.

When he discovered that the game world and the real world had merged, what he was most worried about was that he and Ruby Hoshino would be involved in a murder case.

At least for now, this worst-case scenario has not occurred.

Originally, after discovering that the game world would merge with reality after the game ended, Ryosaki Ezaki was planning not to start a new game for the time being.

But looking at the little life left in the system, he realized that he seemed to have no choice.

All he could do now was to pray silently that the new game world would not make reality even more chaotic.

However, the fusion of worlds is not all bad. For one thing, the girls he conquers in the game can also be included in his harem in real life.

Secondly, as mentioned before, he doesn't need to finish everything in the game world and end the game after making a conclusion.

Now he can do the follow-up work after he finishes the game.

Of course, if he had known this in advance in the world of Fader, he would not have left such a big mess behind when he returned to reality.

"Well, I hope it can be completed smoothly this time, and try not to cause more trouble after the world merges."

Ryosama Ezaki prayed silently in his heart, turned on the system and started the game.

Mai Sakurajima came to this library again.

It is not clear whether this is fortunate or unfortunate for the guests of this library.

Lucky guests can continue to enjoy their reading time quietly.

However, some unfortunate guests may be disturbed by a tall, curvy, pretty girl wearing a bunny girl costume.

Fortunately, there was still no such unfortunate guest today.

Mai Sakurajima, wearing a bunny girl costume and walking back and forth in the library several times in her high heels, still did not attract anyone's attention.

This is obviously unreasonable.

Even if this library was filled with saints who devoted themselves to reading sage books, and they could ignore Sakurajima Mai's slender black silk legs and the bunny girl outfit that perfectly highlighted her figure, they could never ignore the sudden footsteps.

But Mai Sakurajima was accustomed to this scene that went against common sense.

Rather, it was precisely because of this situation that she came to a place like the library wearing a bunny girl costume.

"Sure enough, is it the same today?"

Mai Sakurajima looked at the indifferent crowd and murmured.

For this kind of situation that seems like a disappearance of a god, most people would panic if they encountered it.

But Sakurajima Mai was unusually calm, and even seemed to enjoy it.

Is being ignored something to panic about? Maybe.

But is being ignored painful? Mai Sakurajima doesn't think so.

During the time when this phenomenon occurred to her, Sakurajima Mai felt an unprecedented peace and tranquility.

This is a peace that she has never felt before, as she has lived in the spotlight and been the focus of everyone's attention since she was a child.

"What a wonderful feeling."

Mai Sakurajima couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

Just as she was enjoying this rare quietness, suddenly, a slight "click" sound came from somewhere.

Mai Sakurajima was stunned for a moment and looked around, but didn't find anything unusual.

The other people in the library did not react at all, as if they did not hear the sound.

——It must be just an illusion.

Mai Sakurajima didn't care too much.

This sound was not something particularly noteworthy, but she had been an actress for several years and was somewhat sensitive to this shutter-like sound.

After walking around the library twice more, she went to the bathroom, changed out of her bunny girl clothes, and left the library.

On the way back, she passed by a hot fried meat pie shop and suddenly felt hungry.

Well, she was just greedy.

After waiting in a long line for more than ten minutes, it was finally her turn, Sakurajima Mai said to the clerk.

"I'll take a meat pie, thanks."

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

The clerk seemed to have a network delay and asked again after Sakurajima Mai said what she wanted to buy.

Mai Sakurajima had no choice but to raise her voice and repeat it again.

"Hello! I want a meat pie..."

"Two meat patties, two chicken legs, and 500 grams of meatballs."

A voice suddenly interrupted from behind her.

Mai Sakurajima frowned slightly and was about to turn around to argue with the rude customer behind her, but suddenly she heard the clerk respond.

"Two meat patties, two chicken legs, 500 grams of meatballs... OK, please wait a moment."

Only then did she realize that it was not that the clerk did not hear what she ordered, nor was it that the customer behind her was impolite.

Instead, neither of them noticed his existence.

"Is it happening again..."

Mai Sakurajima frowned slightly.

This phenomenon of being ignored started about a month ago. On that day, she went to an aquarium in another district alone during the four-day weekend, but unexpectedly found that the people in the aquarium seemed to be unable to see her, and even if they accidentally bumped into her, there was no reaction at all.

She then went to a nearby restaurant, where the staff again didn't see her but treated other guests normally.

However, this phenomenon disappeared after she returned to Fujisawa.

After that, she often wore a bunny girl costume and went to various surrounding areas to test whether the same situation would occur in other areas.

However, last week when she returned to Fujisawa after the experiment, she unexpectedly discovered that some convenience stores and coffee shops in Fujisawa were also unable to notice her presence.

This made her begin to feel a little uneasy.

After all, it's a good thing not to be noticed, but it would be very troublesome if, like now, the delicious meat pie is right in front of you but you can't buy it and enjoy it.

Just as Mai Sakurajima was stroking her chin, wondering whether to go over the counter to take out the meat patty, or wait for the next customer to order a meat patty and then take one away.

"Eh? When did you get here, sir?"

The clerk suddenly exclaimed.

"That won't work. Can you please queue up first if you want to buy it?"

"I was in line and I ordered food, but you didn't notice me and went straight to serve the next customer."

Mai Sakurajima said truthfully.

"Eh? Is... is that so?"

The clerk looked at Sakurajima Mai with suspicion, thinking that there was no way he could miss such a beautiful girl.

But Sakurajima Mai didn't seem to be lying, and continuing to pester her would only waste more time.

So he apologized decisively.

"I'm so sorry, sir, what would you like to order?"

"One meat pie, please."

Mai Sakurajima was walking home with a meat pie in her hand. When she thought back to the scene just now, she still felt a little scared.

While enjoying the feeling of relaxation without being noticed, Mai Sakurajima also worried more than once.

If one day you wake up and suddenly realize that no one in the world pays attention to you, what should you do?

But soon, Mai Sakurajima no longer had time to worry about this.

Because another more pressing crisis came upon her first.

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

The next day, when Sakurajima Mai came to school and opened the shoe cabinet, she found an envelope on her indoor shoes.

Originally, this shouldn't be a very strange situation. After all, she debuted as a child star and had already gained considerable fame as an actress at a young age. Her appearance was also outstanding in this school. It would be better to say that only one envelope was too few.

But this is not the case with Mai Sakurajima.

Because her participation in the filming delayed her enrollment, she was absent from school for almost the entire first year.

When she officially came to school, she had already become an "outsider" to other classmates.

Coupled with her star aura, even though they attend the same high school, Mai Sakurajima and other students are like people from two different worlds.

Since the day she officially enrolled, this school seemed to have an unwritten rule.

That is, don't get involved with Sakurajima Mai.

This rule was not made clear to the public, but other students followed it more strictly than the school rules.

Even though the boys were attracted by her looks, none of them dared to express their affection for her.

So, since graduating from junior high school, Mai Sakurajima has never seen love letters in her shoe cabinet.

Mai Sakurajima didn't care about this. It was actually a good thing for her.

After all, it is quite a hassle to take out your shoes from the pile of love letters every day.

Mai Sakurajima took out the envelope and after looking at it carefully, she found that it did not seem to be a love letter.

Judging from the touch of my fingertips, the envelope did not contain a thin piece of letter paper, but something thicker, like a card.

There was no signature on the envelope, but there was a message like this.

"A word of advice: open it when no one is around."

Mai Sakurajima looked around. Although the people around her were trying to avoid her, it was clear that she was not alone.

So she put the envelope into her schoolbag and returned to the classroom.

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

In the blink of an eye, it was time to go home from school.

Today, Mai Sakurajima did not wear the bunny girl costume to test the strange phenomena happening to herself.

She planned to save some time for the mysterious envelope she received today.

When I was leaving the classroom, a noise came from the door of the next class.

"Hey, Ezaki-kun, are you free after school today? Do you want to go to karaoke together?"

"Ezaki-kun has been to karaoke so many times. Even if he's not tired of it, he should still be considerate of his voice, right? How about going to the movies with me today? There's a new romance movie coming out today, and it's getting great reviews!"

"Karaoke and movies, isn't that a bit unoriginal? Ezaki-kun is the president of the Manga Research Club, so he would definitely want to go to the comic convention with me today, right?"

A group of chattering high school girls gathered together, fiercely competing for the most boring yet most sought-after thing in the world - the right to mate.

The object of competition was naturally the man surrounded by them.

Ryoma Esaki.

It has to be admitted that even in the eyes of Sakurajima Mai, who has been in the entertainment industry for many years and has seen many celebrity models, Ryoma Esaki is still a very dazzling existence.

He has a unique temperament, as if he was born with the magic to attract people. Wherever he goes, he is the protagonist in the crowd.

And his appearance is enough to match this attraction.
