Love? Please allow me to simulate it first!

At first glance, the correct answer seems to be to go by myself, but this is based on the premise that I already have an emotional foundation with Goto Ichiri. After only one summer of contact, Goto Ichiri might think that he is a friend worth cherishing, but it should not develop into a romantic relationship.

However, if he takes the members of the light music club with him, the band that Goto Ichiri is in will have a connection with his own light music club, which might increase the chances of him and Goto Ichiri meeting.

Well, choose three.

[You invited everyone in the light music club, and everyone accepted. Kotobuki Tsumugi seemed particularly excited, but Akiyama Mio and Hirasawa Yui seemed a little concerned about your relationship with Goto Ichiri.]

"..."

Nakamura Mine suddenly had a bad feeling. Why did Akiyama Mio and Hirasawa Yui care about this? Could it be that they had some idea about him? In that case, would it be wrong to take them to see Goto Ichiri? No, even if they had some idea, Goto Ichiri probably didn't have any idea about him, so it wasn't a big problem.

[Unfortunately, a typhoon blew up on the day of the performance, but because the performance hall was indoors, you still arrived on time. Goto Ichiri seemed very happy to see you, but her eyes seemed to always glance at the light music club members who were chatting and laughing with you from time to time.]

[The performance of Goto Ichiri's band was not very successful at first. They had almost no stage experience and failed to liven up the atmosphere. They also made many mistakes during their performance. Many guests who bought tickets left disappointed. At the critical moment, Goto Ichiri stood up and performed a guitar solo to retain the audience. The band members also gradually recovered because of her action. The performance finally ended successfully.]

"What kind of protagonist rescue is this?" Nakamura Mine didn't expect that Goto Ichiri, who could scare him away, could actually have such a skill. He was a little impressed by him. By the way, is Goto Ichiri's guitar level very high? Well, he practices for six hours every day, so he should be very good.

[After the performance, the light music club and the ending band that Goto Ichiri is in got to know each other. You learned that the three members of the ending band besides Goto Ichiri are drummer and captain Ichichi Kouka, bassist Yamada Ryo, and main guitarist and sub-guitarist Kita Ikuyo.]

[Because everyone except you is a girl, the communication between the two sides is very harmonious, especially Akiyama Mio and Yamada Ryo, who are both bassists, seem to get along well. ]

[Hirasawa Yui took the initiative to talk to Goto Ichiri, but the overly nervous Goto Ichiri was completely unable to cope with the overly enthusiastic Hirasawa Yui, and just kept sending you a signal for help with her eyes. You had no choice but to raise your hand and tap Hirasawa Yui on the head to warn her to stop, but this intimate action made Goto Ichiri's eyes dim, and Ijichi Kouka seemed to notice this. ]

"Miscalculation..."

Nakamura Mine seemed to have underestimated the status of himself in Goto Ichiri's heart in the simulator. Judging from his performance, even if the other party still didn't like him, he at least had some possessiveness towards him. It was probably similar to the feeling that something that originally belonged to him seemed to be taken away by someone else.

However, at this point, Nakamura Mine could only continue watching.

Chapter 7: End of the First Simulation

[Ijichi Kouka said that they were going to hold a celebration party and wanted to invite you from the light music club to join them. After discussing it, you felt that it was someone else's celebration party and it would be inappropriate to disturb them, so you refused. Goto Ichiri was very disappointed.]

"Haha, G."

Without having to read on, Nakamura Mine could feel that the score for this simulation would not be too high, because in the simulation himself he had already completely integrated into the light music club. Both he and Goto Ichiri made decisions based on their own bands. It went without saying that the relationship between the two people who existed in different small circles would only become more and more distant.

[You become more involved in the light music club's activities, and under the guidance of Akiyama Mio, you work very hard and your guitar skills improve.]

[The first year of high school is over, and you have a very relaxing and happy life, but your relationship with Goto Ichiri seems to be limited to emails and occasional visits to his performances. ]

[In your second year of high school, you welcomed a new member, a cute girl with twin ponytails named Nakano Azusa, who was a guitarist. She had been playing guitar since elementary school, and her level was far better than you and Hirasawa Yui, who had only played guitar for a year. You two felt guilty about this and often practiced secretly in private.]

[You happily spent your second year of high school practicing, drinking tea, and eating snacks.]

[You did not welcome any new members in your third year, but spent a happy high school life as it was, and you are about to graduate. ]

"Isn't this basically just playing?! At least practice properly!"

Although Nakamura Mine had long guessed that the score for this simulation would not be high, it now seems that it may be lower than expected. Goto Ichiri's name has not appeared in the simulation at all. But is he such a lazy person? Why is he basically drinking tea or eating snacks when he is in the light music club? You should practice more.

[You guys graduated. On the day of graduation, Akiyama Mio and Hirasawa Yui confessed their love to you. ]

"Are you two really the ones here?"

[You accepted Hirasawa Yui's confession, and Akiyama Mio cried and gave her blessing to you. ]

Nakamura Mine was a little stunned when he saw the result. He originally thought that he would choose Akiyama Mio. In reality, Nakamura Mine had a much better impression of Akiyama Mio, whom he had already met once, than of Hirasawa Yui, whom he had only seen in words. However, it was possible that the self in the simulation had already had a good impression of the somewhat silly Hirasawa Yui.

[You started dating Hirasawa Yui, but since all the members except you and Nakano Azusa who had not yet graduated were admitted to the Faculty of Education of N Women's University, you were admitted to the music department of a decent university with excellent grades. There, you worked hard to make up for your lack of music theory and started to get in touch with other instruments.]

[To your surprise, there is another person you know in this university. She is Ichichi Hongxia, the former captain of the band Ending. She is a senior who is one year older than you, but your relationship is only to the extent of greeting each other after meeting. You know that the band Ending has disbanded now, but you don't care as you are devoted to studying music.]

[Although you are busy, you always take a few days every month to hang out with Hirasawa Yui and everyone in the light music club. Every time, everyone will tease you and Hirasawa Yui and give you a chance to be alone.]

[Your hard work and talent attracted the attention of a mentor, and under his advice, you began to focus on your ability in composition.]

【Under the recommendation of your mentor, you joined a music studio where he was a former student, where you learned a lot of knowledge and experience.】

[Four years of college passed quickly, and you left your previous studio a long time ago. You joined a media company to arrange music. With four years of hard study and extraordinary talent, you quickly became famous in the industry, and your career is booming.]

[On Hirasawa Yui's 23rd birthday, you proposed to her and she cried and agreed.]

[At the wedding, besides Hirasawa Yui's family and relatives, you only invited former members of the light music club and some close friends. You thought about inviting Goto Ichiri, but since you haven't been in touch for a long time, you gave up the idea.]

[In the third year after your marriage, you and Nakamura Yui had a daughter named Nakamura Tsubaki. She looks a lot like you, but her personality is exactly the same as Nakamura Yui. Although Nakamura Yui is now a music teacher, her personality is still as unreliable as it was in high school. You are always worried when the mother and daughter are alone together.]

[You should be thankful that Chun inherited her mother's absolute pitch and your advantage of being a quick learner. Under your guidance, Chun's progress in music is almost visible to the naked eye.]

[Until the time when Tsubaki was in high school, you, who focused on composing music, had completely defeated your daughter in terms of musical instrument skills. You were very happy about this, but you would always practice secretly. When Wei found out, she always used this to laugh at you.]

[Tsubaki was admitted to Tokyo University of the Arts, and you and Nakamura Yui are already 44 years old, but you still can't change your habit of always teasing each other, and she seems to enjoy it. You are still living happily in your 50s.]

[At the age of fifty, you are already a well-known composer in the industry, and have composed music for countless bands, animations, games, TV series and even movies, and your daughter has joined the National Opera and Dance Theater. ]

[In the summer of your eighty-sixth year, you passed away. In the winter of the following year, Nakamura Yui also passed away with you, holding a photo of you all from your days in the light music club.]

[Simulation ended, score 54 points, evaluation, you have lived a happy life, but you and Goto Ichiri seemed to have a good start, but they became strangers before they got to the point. ]

[Obtain 279 points, obtain abilities: Music Theory LV1, Guitar LV1, Composition LV1.]

"finished."

Such a low score was expected. If the simulation object was changed to Hirasawa Yui, the score would probably be very high this time, but unfortunately this object has not been unlocked yet. After watching his own life in the simulation, he felt somewhat emotional, but only a little bit, because he knew very well that the Nakamura Mine in the simulation was not him.

That was just a virtual character created by the simulator based on his behavior, personality and other factors, but this simulation might actually be able to predict the future to some extent. For example, the light music club of his future Sakuragaoka High School might really include these five people: Yui Hirasawa, Ritsu Tainaka, Mio Akiyama, Tsumugi Kotobuki, and Azusa Nakano who will join in the second year, but that's just the extent of it.

If we talk about evidence, the most obvious thing is that the person in the simulator does not have a love simulator. If he did, his future achievements would never be limited to this. Besides, in reality, no one will force him to make decisions for him.

After all, a simulation is just a simulation, and he is very open about this. He doesn't really feel that he must marry Hirasawa Yui in reality just because he married her in the simulation and seemed very happy. To him now, Hirasawa Yui is just a "stranger" he met in the simulator.

Chapter 8 The second simulation begins

Nakamura Mine did not continue with the second simulation. Instead, he walked out of the bathroom, changed his clothes, and lay on the bed to start absorbing and organizing the music theory and guitar skills that suddenly appeared in his mind. Although it was only LV1, Nakamura Mine felt that he could already play some simple songs completely.

He clicked on the character attribute panel that suddenly popped up after completing the first simulation.

Name: Nakamura Mine

Stamina: 4

Intelligence: 11

Charisma: 13

Skills: Music theory LV1, guitar LV1, composition LV1.

"If intelligence is 11, does that mean the average person is 10? In that case, his physical strength would be too poor, right? But after all, he is still in the growth stage, so it's acceptable."

"As for charm... well, let's do a test."

Nakamura Mine can clearly see a plus sign behind each attribute and skill, which means that he can allocate attribute points or upgrade skills for himself just like in the game. In addition, the skill mall that appears along with the attribute page also contains many good abilities, which can be chosen to be purchased directly or drawn by lottery, and the basis of all of these is the points just given in the simulation.

He now only has 279 points in total. He saw that it would cost one thousand points to extract a skill. If he bought it directly, the cheapest skill, such as the pen spinning skill, would cost five hundred points.

Although it seems very expensive, considering that his clearance evaluation was only 54 points but he still obtained nearly points, it seems that this point is not difficult to obtain.

Click the plus sign behind physical strength twice in a row.

"Yeah, I'm getting excited." Nakamura Mine could clearly feel the changes in his body. Although he still didn't have much muscle after lifting his clothes, he was not as skinny as before. The fatigue brought by chasing Goto Ichiri was also gone.

Nakamura Mine clicked on the additional points for intelligence and charm again, paying 50 points in total. It can be seen that the points deducted for the additional points have nothing to do with the original base, but are multiplied according to the number of times. This made him regret it a little. Perhaps he should train to a certain level in reality before adding points. Compared with intelligence, which is almost difficult to train, physical strength and charm can be increased through efforts in reality. Moreover, he feels that if the level of skills like guitar can be improved, charm should also increase.

In any case, with only 29 points left, he could do nothing. Instead of rushing into the second simulation, Nakamura Mine chose to sleep first. After all, he had just arrived in this world. Even though he claimed that he had stronger adaptability than the average person, he still needed to organize the information in his mind.

At the same time, in the Goto family's bathroom, Miss Goto Ichiri was shivering in the ice water. There was a small pink head and a dog head watching from the door. After Goto Ichiri started to roll her eyes, she rushed down and shouted:

"Mom, my sister is going to die!"

"Wang!"

In the classroom the next day, Nakamura Mine was speechless when he saw the empty seat that originally belonged to Goto Ichiri. He thought that the other party might really do what was said in the simulator, so he was angry and amused.

This Goto Ichiri is really weird, but also quite interesting.

Since he already knew that no one in the class had Goto Ichiri's contact information, and the homeroom teacher would not trust a poor student like him, he did not meddle in other people's business. If nothing unexpected happened, Goto Ichiri's matter would have to wait until next week to be resolved. His top priority now was to study.

Just as what was said in the simulator, junior high school math, physics and chemistry were not a problem at all for him as a college student, but history and Chinese were really a big problem. It was not so much that the original guy did not study seriously, but rather did not study at all. He had no choice but to find the first and second grade textbooks from home and start from the beginning. As for what the teacher said, he did not listen to it. After all, it was not long before the high school entrance examination, and what should be taught had been taught long ago, which was of little help to him.

The simulated self seemed to have the help of Goto Ichiri, but he couldn't wait until next week to start studying.

After studying all morning, Nakamura Mine opened the simulation at noon while eating fried noodles, bread and banana milk bought from the cafeteria's canteen store.

"It tastes surprisingly good." He originally thought it was strange to add fried noodles into bread, but out of curiosity he bought it to try and found that it was surprisingly good.

[Simulation starts, simulation subject is Goto Ichiri.]

Nakamura Mine did not choose to change the simulation object, although he knew that it would be much easier to get high scores in the simulation exception with the two girls who were about to meet in high school, especially Akiyama Mio. If he followed the process of the first simulation, as long as he chose to accept Akiyama Mio's confession on the day of high school graduation, he would most likely get a good evaluation. But now he wanted to experiment whether his subjective thoughts before starting the simulation could bring about changes in the follow-up.

He gave himself three orders before starting the simulation: one, he must trick Goto Ichiri into his hands, two, he must join the ending band, and three, he must not join the light music club.

Looking back at the first simulation, the beginning of the estrangement between him and Goto Ichiri was when Goto Ichiri joined the end band and he joined the light music club. They put all their time and energy into their own groups, so that the two of them had less and less contact.

He just wanted to see if his thoughts in reality could affect the progress of the simulation.

[Since you knew that you couldn't get Goto Ichiri's contact information and address, you spent this week studying liberal arts, and your liberal arts level has improved.]

[Next Monday, Goto Ichiri came to school. Her arrival did not attract anyone's attention except you. You called her to the backyard of the academy alone.]

[Before you were ready to speak, Goto Ichiri took the first step and took out her piggy bank, telling you that this was the money her mother had saved for her future marriage. She hoped that you would let her go after receiving the money and delete the secretly filmed video.]

【Please make your choice. 】

[1. You are short of money and you happily accept it. You think that since it is money saved for marriage, then as long as you marry the other person, there will be no problem at all, right? ]

【Second, strongly refuse and tell the other party that you did not secretly take any video. 】

【3. Refuse the other party's money, and use the non-existent video to threaten the other party to listen to you and make him your puppet.】

Nakamura Mine didn't hesitate and chose three as before. He had no intention of changing the plot before high school started. The evaluation of the last simulation also said that he and Goto Ichiri had a good start, so there was nothing wrong with his original choice. The problem was his own thoughts in the simulation. To put it bluntly, the reason for his failure was that he valued the light music club more than Goto Ichiri, that's all.

Chapter 9 Joining the Ending Band

After quickly reading the plot before high school, there are almost no major changes in the plot. The only change is that when he asked Goto Ichiri to teach him guitar, he was no longer a complete novice, but just at the entry level. However, this did not cause any big impact. On the contrary, his guitar skills seemed to improve a lot faster than before. Perhaps this is also due to the two points of physical strength and intelligence.

[You entered high school and made some friends who you get along with, but you don’t seem to have any plans to join any clubs.]

"It's done!"

This proves that as long as a decision is made in reality before the simulation, it can affect the development of the subsequent simulation.

[One day, Goto Ichiri sent you an email telling you that she had joined a band. You showed enough interest in this and took the initiative to ask to see her band, and Goto Ichiri agreed.]

[You came to the gathering place of Goto Ichiri's band, a live house called Fanxing. It was your first time in such a place, so you felt very curious.]

[To your surprise, their band only had three members. In addition to Goto Ichiri, there were only bassist Yamada Ryo and drummer Ichichi Kouka. The only member missing was the lead singer Kita Ikuyo. You thought it was because they hadn't met yet, so you didn't care.]

[Ichichi Kouka was very enthusiastic about your arrival, and Yamada Ryo's expression was cold but not repulsive. After you said that you were also practicing guitar, you were invited by Ichichi Kouka as expected. After confirming Goto Ichiri's opinion, you agreed without much hesitation.]

"Ok, this is going well."

It is obvious that the orders given to him by the simulator's Nakamura Mine caused a big change in his attitude in the simulation.

[You started to practice at Fanxing after school, and like Goto Ichiri and the others, you started working part-time at Fanxing to raise money for the performance.]

"Huh? You have to pay for the performance yourself? Shouldn't you be making money?"

Nakamura Mine had never paid attention to any rock bands, so he had no idea how they operated. But in his opinion, he should be paid for performing for others, so why did he have to pay for it himself?

Rock music seemed to cost more money than he had imagined.

[You and Goto Ichiri go home together every day, and Goto Ichiri becomes more and more open in front of you. ]

[Ijichi Kouka recommended you a music blogger who plays guitar, named "Guitar Hero", but no matter how you look at it, this blogger's guitar and clothes are exactly the same as Goto Ichiri's. You checked her previous daily life and almost always deliberately emphasized that she was a super popular person. You already know Goto Ichiri very well and you are very sure that this person must be Goto Ichiri. You did not tell Ijichi Kouka about this discovery, but directly exposed this fact in front of Goto Ichiri. ]

[Goto Ichiri was very flustered after being exposed, but she didn't seem to have any intention of hiding it. She just didn't know how to start the conversation and she was very happy when you praised her as a "Guitar Hero", so she didn't say it. You took out the "live" remarks on the Internet and ridiculed her severely before letting her go.]

"Look at this guy with a bad temper."

In real life, Mr. Nakamura Mine is not such a person, um... maybe?

[One day, Goto Ichiri brought a cute red-haired girl. After Ijichi Kouka's narration, you and Goto Ichiri learned that this girl was the guitarist who had run away from the band, Kita Ikuyo.]

[It seems that she joined the band because she admired the bassist Yamada Ryo, but she ran away on the day of the performance because she had never learned guitar. It was because of this that Ijichi Nijika found Goto Ichiri who was carrying a guitar to help. ]

[Kita Ikuyo seemed very ashamed of this, but after Goto Ichiri's persuasion, Kita Ikuyo rejoined the closing band.]

[During practice, Goto Ichiri was in charge of teaching you and Kita Ikuyo. Kita Ikuyo seemed to be very envious of your speed of improvement and always came to ask if you had any tricks. You told her without any modesty that this was the difference in talent.]
