I am the emotional sustenance of your deceased

"I guess I'll never think of Crychic again in my life."

……

"Xiao Sushi? Xiao Sushi? Are you okay?"

My name is Chitose Noshiro, and I’m panicking right now.

Let me take a closer look at what happened in the past two days.

You mean... there's a beautiful girl with a broken heart on the street who's clamoring to stay at my house and be my good friend, and this person is also the mother and daughter in my dreams?

Are you kidding me?

But, that's how it is.

The girls in the simulation appeared one after another in Chitose's daily life, and they all showed desires in certain aspects just like in the simulation.

They all have strong emotional needs.

One is okay, two can handle it...

But now, including Su Shi, she is the third girl who has been pestering him.

Can Chitose Noshiro really handle it?

"Wow...year-old? Is that you?"

Su Shi's throat moved, and he managed to make a weak call.

"It's me. Is Miss Sushi feeling better?"

Chitose forced a smile.

It was so uncomfortable, so uncomfortable... She couldn't treat Su Shi with that kind attitude...

Because that would be weird, especially to a stranger.

Chitose's distress was growing but she didn't let Suyo see it.

"Yeah! Thank you for your care. I feel much better now."

Yesterday was so crazy... that now Su Shi is embarrassed to see Chitose.

But the ginseng chicken soup was like a warning. Su Shi now had to believe that if she dared to retreat, she might miss Qiansui forever...

Don’t do this kind of thing!

"Chitose, thank you... I've said many words of thanks to you these past two days, but I still want to thank you... I'm sorry for causing you trouble again just now."

"It's okay, Sushi. It's just that my classmate came to my house and got scared."

"Eh? Are there any classmates here? I..."

"Yes, Takamatsu-san and Shiina-san, they are resting in my room. Does Sushi need me to help heat up some food? Hasn't she eaten in days?"

"Wait, what did you say?"

Shiina and… Takamatsu? In terms of the combination, Noshiro and Haizuka…

Okay, okay, they're all here. I wonder if I'll ever be able to avoid these surnames in my life.

"Excuse me, is this Takamatsu Touma and Shiina Riki?"

"Yes, yes, they are the members of your Crychic band. When they told me that they knew you, I thought it was a huge coincidence. I didn't expect that after going around in circles, new friends and old friends are all friends," Chitose narrowed her eyes gently.

There was no reason to be nice to Su Shi in real life before, after all, they were not familiar with each other, but now there is a little bit.

A friend of a friend is my new friend! That gives me lots of reasons to be nice to Sushi!

But there are still some temptations in this that Qiansui himself doesn't like.

She brought Sushi some light food without strong flavors.

"Milk and cookies. I hope my stomach won't be upset this time."

"Eh?"

"I'm sorry I was careless before... The food I made is relatively strong, and the ginseng chicken soup is still not very good. You can fill your stomach with these for now, Sushi, and I will prepare dinner later."

"I…"

Nagasaki Suyo's eyes changed when she looked at Chitose.

She discovered that the Chitose in front of her was not the Chitose she had dreamed of...

It was more like the sum of the two thousand-year-olds in her dream!

In real life, Chitose Noshiro retains the tenderness of a mother while also being playful like a little daughter...

"Ah, I'm fine now. Thanks for the treat."

"But hasn't Sushi eaten yet?"

"Cough cough."

Su Shi struggled to get up, held Qiansui's hand, and said seriously:

"I will never forget Qiansui's kindness and care. You are the only person who has been kind to me since I was a child. I will definitely repay you."

"You're making it sound too serious. I just...?"

"Last night, I was emotionally unstable and said a lot of scary things... I'm so sorry! But I'm calm today. Please don't reject my kindness, please..."

Seeing that Su Shi's knees seemed to be uneasy and wanted to find the right time to kneel down, Qiansui pressed the other's thigh, which made Su Shi behave himself.

"Alright, alright, stop talking so much, kid. I don't know how long you were in the rain yesterday, and I don't know how long it's been since you last had anything to eat."

"Can you be nice to yourself first? Lie down and have a good rest, Xiao Sushi."

"Woo..."

Su Shi held the milk with grievance, like a child who had made a mistake.

"You...Ms. Nagasaki, how could you have raised my daughter like this? How pitiful!"

Qiansui's mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times, and with a sigh, Qiansui answered Su Shi's question:

"I will be your friend. Although I don't know the specific situation of your family, I think Su Shi, who is a friend of Deng and Li Xi, will not be a bad person... If you need, you can stay at my house for a few more days..."

"You swear you're not lying to me? Okay, thank you!"

Nagasaki Suyo was afraid that Chitose would change his mind, so she drank the milk in one breath and spoke in panic.

"Of course. I'll go keep them company first. Do you want to go see your friends later?"

"I…"

Su Shi seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes became firm.

If they hurt Chitose, then I have to correct Deng and Riki.

"I want to go! But not now. After all, I haven't eaten yet, and I don't have the energy to get up, so..."

"Okay, okay, let me feed you."

Why are you always like a child wherever you go, Su Shi?

Chitose Noshiro missed this feeling very much, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

【I really can't do anything about you. 】

Ch179. Nagasaki Suyo! What are you doing!

Chitose's bedroom is not big.

It can even be said to be very small.

Lixi just sat on the floor, and all the small decorations in the house passed by her eyes again and again.

It’s small and cozy, with an indescribable sense of familiarity.

[It seems like just like in my dream, Xiao Sui likes to place all kinds of small decorations on the walls and cabinets.]

It’s just that the apartment in the dream was more luxurious, which made the reality seem a little shabby.

"Xiao Sui..."

Do you really have a place for me in your real life?

Lixi was not jealous, but she understood the difference between dreams and reality.

There were only Chitose and myself in the dream, but the real world after waking up was much more complicated.

Next to her was Takamatsu Deng, whose face had a mysterious blush and was playing with an album, and Li Xi also knew that Su Shi was also in this house.

[Chitose is surrounded by many people besides herself... Why is Chitose so popular...]

scare!

What a terrible thought, why would I think like that?

Li Xi patted his chest rhythmically, feeling that he looked very awkward.

I have to state in advance that I'm not jealous, I just feel that my good friends have too many good friends.

Shouldn't good friends only have one good friend? Shouldn't good friends live together for a lifetime, sleep together for a lifetime, have dinner together and enjoy the sunset for a lifetime, hold hands together for a lifetime, and kiss together for a lifetime?

Why does Xiaosui have so many good friends?

[Maybe it's because there are still many Lixis who need their age. ]

In the end, Lixi's straight lumbar spine collapsed, and her posture was like a deflated ball, abandoned in an unknown corner.

"Lixi? Hmm."

Deng poked Lixi's arm a few times with the album. Seeing Lixi's depressed look, she thought Lixi was bored.

"Can you show it to me? No need, I'm fine. I'm just thinking about Su Shi."

"Su Shi? Hmm... I heard that Su Shi's family is quite special. Is this time..."

"Maybe, but it's better not to talk too much about this kind of thing behind people's backs. Xiao Deng, you...huh? What is this?"

Shiina Riki, who wanted to say a few more words, frowned. Her attention was deeply attracted by a medical file bag on the bedside table next to her.

"Is it a medical record? Maybe it's from Kyoto."

A familiar feeling of panic rose in Deng's heart, and she blinked hard, trying to resist the constant uneasiness.

Chitose's sister has an eye disease, and the two sisters live in the same bedroom... This must not be Chitose's medical record but Kokyoumoto's.

Absolutely...yes!?

"Not really. Let me take a look...hmm."

"Lixi? Whose is it?"

“Uh…”

Li Xi no longer cared about Gao Songdeng behind him.

The veins on her clenched fists were particularly noticeable in the sunlight, as if blood of anxiety was flowing in them.

[Yes, Chitose? ]

Although the cowhide bag was sealed with a layer of thread, Noshiro Chitose's name was clearly written on it.

[In the dream, Xiaosui died of illness in junior high school, but that was also related to... overwork.]

After all, the doctor later told me that although the cause of Qiansui's illness was complicated, it was ultimately related to her disordered lifestyle.

Li Xi knew that Chitose had put a lot of effort into making himself famous, staying up late to compose music, practicing instruments day and night, and rushing around looking for publishers and agencies whenever he had time...

These pressures that were not meant for a junior high school girl, coupled with her own physical problems, led to Yumenori Chitose's untimely death.

"how come…"

A whining sound similar to that of a small wild beast unconsciously came out of his throat, and Shiina Riki only now realized a problem that he had ignored before.

Although Qiansui successfully survived for sixteen years without me, what happened next?

She didn't dare to think about it before, but now that this mysterious medical record bag was right in front of her, she had to think more about it.

"Lixi? Are you okay?"

The sound of the light brought Lixi back from his thoughts in time. It was only then that Lixi realized that he was sweating coldly on his back.
