Tokyo: Love Begins with Controlling the Rich Girl

The first green light, the second green light, the third... and then six more green lights in a row.

[Free attribute points ×1] ×6.

Shimada Sho has become numb.

Let's see what happens next.

He stared at the turntable, and just then, a blue beam of light shot out.

[Congratulations, player, you have obtained 1 Affection Sticker!]

Shimada Sho: ...

Why is this thing blue?

[Congratulations, player! You have received a temporary character login card x1!]

[Congratulations, player, you have obtained 1 Affection Sticker!]

[Congratulations, player, you have obtained 1 Affection Sticker!]

He was still complaining when three more beams of light shot out.

Upon seeing the final item he received, Shimada Sho's face turned completely dark.

The temporary login card is somewhat useful, but not very useful.

I can't even imagine using these "friendship" stickers.

Sticking it on someone can increase their favorability, but the effect is weak, and the duration depends on the target's mindset.

The sticker I got last time is still gathering dust in my inventory.

After two 10-pull pulls, Shimada Sho tallied up his haul:

Free attribute points: 13.

Skill: Proficient - Running

Skill: Expert-level Kendo

Temporary character login card x2

3 Affection Stickers

The harvest was terribly bad.

Not only did I not get anything good, the rewards didn't help the current situation at all.

What he needed was a tool that could solve the problem of Tenkai Chizuru, and this is what he ended up with.

"Damaged system..."

[Ding! Player's cumulative lottery draw count has exceeded 30. New feature unlocked - Targeted Draw!]

[Targeted Draw: Consume a specified number of acquired items to exchange for one targeted draw chance. The exchange ratio is 10:1, meaning 10 any items can be exchanged for 1 targeted draw. Note: Used skills and attribute points cannot be recycled; only items stored in the inventory can be used.]

"Okay, I take back what I just said."

Targeted draws are essentially telling him outright that he can draw whatever items he wants.

What's there to hesitate about?

Shimada Sho quickly opened his inventory and checked the items that could be exchanged.

First, there's the [Affection Sticker] and [Temporary Character Login Card] I got from the last ten-pull.

One sticker, two login cards, plus the three stickers this time, making a total of six items.

During the mission, Tenkai Chizuru gave him a [Dragon Essence Tiger Fierce Pill], but he didn't want to waste it.

Four more items are needed. Shimada Sho looked at the 13 free attribute points.

Attribute points are consumables, and the system does not explicitly state whether they can be used as items.

He tentatively asked, "Can free attribute points be used for exchange?"

[Ding! Free attribute points are recyclable items; each point can be exchanged for one item.]

"Okay!" Shimada Sho allocated 4 free attribute points without hesitation.

4 stickers + 2 login cards + 4 attribute points, a total of 10 items.

"Redeem one chance for a targeted draw."

[Ding! Consumed 10 items, gained 1 chance for a targeted draw!]

Before starting the draw, please set the target type for the draw: Skill/Attribute/Item/Special/Consumable.

Shimada Sho directly selected, "Item".

The attributes are basically unrelated to the skills and the status of Tenkai Chizuru.

The special classifications were not explained in detail, and he didn't know what they were.

Thinking about it, only the items that can be drawn are helpful.

After Shimada Sho made his selection, another detailed interface popped up:

Please select the item's basic type and effect.

[Basic Types: Regular/Funny/Erotic/Supportive...]

[Basic Effects: Buffs/Curses/Influences/Boosts/Attack...]

"so much?"

Shimada Sho was astonished as he looked at the long list of categories displayed by the system.

He always thought the system only had a few things to offer.

I never imagined there were so many usable effects; even excluding the less legitimate ones, there are still many options to choose from.

The system items seem to be plentiful.

After careful consideration, he finally chose two limiting conditions: [Assistance] and [Influence].

Items categorized as "Support" will undoubtedly have a positive effect on the user.

【Influence】This part literally means to exert influence. No matter what the influence is, as long as it is positive, at the very least you will get something like Dragon Essence and Tiger Might Pill, so as not to waste the lottery opportunity.

Having made his choice, Shimada Sho pressed the draw button.

[Targeted extraction in progress...]

The turntable reappeared, but this time only a small area was lit up, while the rest was gray.

The turntable spun slowly, not too fast, and finally stopped on a golden square.

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for obtaining the rare accessory - Chain of Tranquility!]

A golden light flew out from the roulette wheel and landed in the inventory.

Shimada Sho couldn't wait to open and check it out.

【Chain of Tranquility】(Rare Jewelry)

[Type]: Wearable jewelry

【Effect】:

Charm +2 (can be stacked with existing Charm attributes)

Concentration and Calmness: When worn, it can effectively suppress abnormal fluctuations in the mental state, including but not limited to anxiety, agitation, excessive excitement, and compulsive impulses. It is also effective for psychological abnormalities caused by external factors (such as magic, props, and drugs), and can sustainably stabilize the user's mental state.

Mental Barrier: When the wearer is disturbed by external emotions, the necklace produces a slight cooling sensation, helping the user maintain rational judgment and not be easily driven by impulses.

[Negative Effects]:

Instinctive Repulsion: Users will have an instinctive aversion to the accessory and will have strong resistance upon first contact. If given as a gift, the target will most likely refuse to accept it unless their rejection is overcome through special means (such as forced wearing, persuasion, hypnosis, etc.).

[Note]: This item contains a special spiritual energy field, which is particularly effective for women.

Shimada Sho read through the list one by one, and when he saw the effect of calming the mind, his eyes lit up.

Suppressing abnormal fluctuations in the mental state, including compulsive impulses, isn't that exactly what Chizuru Amami needs right now?

She was affected by that photo and developed an uncontrollable urge to treat herself that way.

Wearing this necklace will most likely suppress the opponent.

As for the negative effects, they aren't actually that bad.

It's just that if I give it away, people will look down on it.

He has plenty of ways to persuade Tenkai Chizuru.

If we can find a way to get her to wear it, the problem will be solved once and for all.

Persistence pays off, and the problem can finally be solved.

Shimada Sho was completely relieved.

I'll try to persuade Chizuru Amami to wear it tomorrow.

He carefully put away the Chain of Tranquility and turned his gaze to the 13 free attribute points he had just gained.

4 points were used for redemption, leaving 9 points.

"Add all of it to Constitution."

Without much thought, Shimada Sho made his decision.

Because of his past involvement in the underworld, he prioritized improving his own combat capabilities.

Allocation complete!

A system notification sounded, and a warm current flowed through my body.

Shimada Sho only felt a slight swelling in his muscles and a slight clicking sound from his bones.

He had experienced this feeling several times before, and he hadn't felt uncomfortable.

The change ended quickly, and he tried clenching his fist.

His knuckles cracked, and a surge of power coursed through his body.

His physical fitness has improved by more than one level compared to before.

Shimada Sho jumped off the bed and did a few squats and push-ups.

I feel more relaxed than before.

However, as he experienced the changes in his body, his brows furrowed again.

"Why does it feel like the improvement isn't as significant as I expected?"

Although the effect of allocating a full 9 attribute points to Constitution is very obvious.

However, it was still somewhat different from what he had expected.

With doubled attributes, even if it's not enough to shatter a wall with a single punch, it should at least have some different manifestation, right?

The result was that he tried a couple of moves, his punches made a whooshing sound, but when they landed on the wall, they didn't even leave a mark, let alone break it.

With doubts in his mind, he opened the system panel and carefully examined the attribute descriptions of his physique.

[Constitution: 17 points]

[Current Results: Basic physical fitness improved by approximately 85%]

【注：基础属性每10点为一个阈值，超过10点后，每点增益效果衰减50%。当前每点体质约提升2.5%基础身体素质。后续阈值：20点。】

Shimada Sho's face darkened.

"Attenuation?" He looked at it carefully to make sure he wasn't mistaken.

After exceeding 10 points, the effect of each point of constitution decreases from 5% to 2.5%.

也就是说，他刚才加的9点体质，实际效果只有4.5%×9≈40.5%的提升，而前10点是50%的提升。

"I should have added them separately." Shimada Sho regretfully slapped his forehead.

If he had distributed those 9 attribute points among Reaction and Charisma, his attributes would be more balanced now.

It shouldn't be that the current result is still only a pitiful 2 points.

"I can't be so reckless next time," Shimada Sho silently made up his mind.
