Now even Siji feels a little embarrassed.

Just when he was about to find another set of bedding and sleep on the floor, the girl had already opened her own quilt and patted the empty part of the bed: "Let's sleep together!"

This guy seems to be more willful when he is drunk than when he is sober.

"No, the bed is too narrow."

"Mmm..."

"Even if you look at me like this with grievance, I can't do that."

Faced with the girl's pitiful offensive, Si Ji did not give in.

But he had just made his bed on the floor and had not been asleep for ten seconds when the warm body of the Yamada fairy squeezed in again.

Before Si Ji could speak, the girl's voice rang out first.

"Today, I don't want to sleep alone..."

Her tone was not the arrogant and willful one from before, but rather a kind of loneliness mixed with an indescribable taste.

"What's wrong?" Si Ji asked softly.

"Rikka seems to be searching for something. Whether it's the Evil King's True Eyes or the invisible boundary, they are just her sustenance for the lost things... So what did she see at that moment in the park?"

The girl whispered, shrinking towards Four Seasons: "Every time I think of this, I feel a little scared... So just for today, sleep with me."

Si Ji was silent for a moment, then reached out and hugged the girl to make her feel more secure.

"Don't worry, she just saw what she wanted to see..."

"Ah."

"Nothing happened. It will all be over soon, I promise you."

"Ah."

"Go to sleep, it's just for today."

"four seasons."

"what happened?"

"I like you."

"Ok, I know."

The night spread.

The two cuddled together.

Silent all night.

Chapter 274 Three Deaths

The next day, Si Ji came to the Student Union to give a phased report on this work.

"I see, the home visits to Yukinoshita and Kotori have already been completed," Amakusa Shino said briskly as she looked at the home visit report brought by Shiki, "As expected of Washimiya-kun, you're halfway there now. Are you interested in really working for the student union? I can lend you Chloe for a while."

"Please don't talk about people like objects." Chloe Kashinagawa looked at her own president helplessly with a look that showed she could overthrow her superior at any time.

"My style of play is too intense. Senior Jia Shenchuan won't be able to bear it." Si Ji said with a clear conscience.

"Shumimiya-kun, don't agree with the president in this kind of situation. If you keep responding to her like this, she will become more and more demanding." Chloe Kashinagawa said with a headache.

"That being said, the reason why the president has become like this doesn't it mean that Senior Kashin Chuan Ke has always been very fond of the president?"

Shiki countered with clear thoughts.

"That's not the case. I have always tried to correct the president's strange personality..." Chloe Kagamikawa retorted, but she lost confidence as she spoke: "Probably..."

"I value Chloe very much! I value her more than ○○○ and ×× who are so close to me every night!"

Amakusa Shino said seriously.

"I wouldn't be happy even if I won something like that!"

Chloe Kagamikawa didn't know whether to be happy or angry, so she stood up and said helplessly: "I'm going on patrol... Anyway, Washimiya-kun, don't take the president's words too seriously, otherwise you will always be played by her."

"Okay, President, I will take your words to heart!"

Shiki answered with a straight face.

“Why… It was clearly a sincere response from my junior, why am I so unable to let it go…”

Senior Chloe Kagamigawa, the goddess in the eyes of many boys in Toyonosaki, muttered to herself and left the student union office with an unrelieved look on her face.

"Chloe, really, if you are too serious, you will be ruined as the student council president in this school."

Amakusa Shino said nonchalantly, then she picked up Shiki's report and glanced at it, confirming that it was just a very formal record of home visits, and nodded: "Anyway, two of the four home visits have been completed, and the difficulty of the remaining two... well, I think it shouldn't be too difficult for you, so don't be too anxious, there is still half a week to take your time... In fact, the progress of other teachers' home visits is not that optimistic now, so it doesn't matter if it is delayed until next week."

"That's it..."

Si Ji touched his chin and suddenly realized that something seemed wrong: "Wait, four home visits? Shouldn't it be five?"

"Five?" Amakusa Shino blinked and counted on her fingers: "Kasumigaoka Utaha, Takanashi Rikka, Kashiwazaki Hona, and Oosaka Taiga... Aren't there four?"

"And Sakurajima Mai," Shiki added.

"Sakurajima Mai..." Amakusa Shino was stunned for a moment, and after a moment she patted her head as if she had come to her senses: "Oh, there is also Sakurajima Mai."

She scratched her head in confusion and said, "Eh, that's strange, why would I forget? This guy is quite famous..."

Shiki pursed her lips, realizing that Sakurajima Mai's puberty syndrome might have begun to take effect.

The name of the other party's adolescent syndrome is 'Stone Cap Syndrome'.

Shiki happened to know that the name "Stone Hat" came from the very famous children's animation Dora the Blue Fat Man in his previous life. He remembered that the effect of this magical prop was that after putting on the hat, everyone would ignore it like a small stone on the roadside.

It's not that it's invisible, but it simply has lost its sense of existence and is subconsciously ignored by people.

At first, Shiki thought that this symptom would only affect people, that is, Sakurajima Mai herself would become less noticeable, but now it seems that not only her presence will be reduced, but even the information related to her, such as her name, will become less noticeable.

When everyone turns a blind eye to her and forgets about her like a small stone on the roadside, I am afraid that for her, it will be a situation more terrifying than death.

Si Ji had heard somewhere that there was a saying that a person would die three times in his life.

The first death is when the heart stops beating and breathing stops, and the person is declared dead biologically.

The second death is being buried. People wear black to attend the funeral, and from then on they no longer exist in this society.

The third death is when the last person in the world who remembers the person also forgets him/her. Then, the deceased is truly dead, leaving no trace.

At this moment, Sakurajima Mai was as if she had skipped the first and second deaths and directly experienced the third death. All traces of her existence were being gradually erased.

But now is not the time.

Adolescent syndrome is not a situation that appears inexplicably, but is definitely a manifestation that is strongly related to the patient's psychological factors.

In a sense, it even fulfills the patient's wishes - in a way that is not so welcome to the other party.

There is a slight possibility of the Black Grail of Puberty Syndrome.

Since Mai Sakurajima suffers from 'stone hat syndrome', it means that she doesn't want to be in the spotlight or be noticed by others - whether it's her true intention or out of spite, this is indeed her mentality during this period.

In this case, she would not feel too anxious in the past two days when she just discovered that her sense of existence had weakened, and she might even enjoy this rare relaxing time.

When it comes to truly solving the problem, it will have to wait until Mai Sakurajima herself realizes that she is experiencing her third death, which mainly depends on her IQ and rationality.

Considering that the other party's performance has not dropped much even though he has been filming all the time, it probably won't take her too long to realize this.

After chatting with Amakusa Shino for a while, Shiki said goodbye and returned to his class.

As a result, before the lunch break was over, someone came running to say that a senior student was looking for him outside the classroom.

When Shiki went out, he found that it was Kasumigaoka Utaha who came.

Unlike before, when he seemed to want to keep a certain distance from Siji, he seemed quite friendly and didn't care about other people's eyes. Instead, he asked Siji, "Regarding the game company you mentioned before, when can you be free to go and take a look with me?"

"You are too impatient..."

Si Ji sighed, feeling a little irritated by the looks from the boys around him: "Just this weekend."

"Weekend?" Kasumigaoka Utaha was stunned. "Don't they have a holiday?"

"It's a gaming company after all." Si Ji answered meaningfully.

The girl pursed her cherry-colored lips, and it seemed as if she had decided not to consider working in a gaming company in the future...

Chapter 275 Eagle Jump

Eagle Jump was once a well-known game development company in the gaming industry. It owns the highly-known and influential game IP "Elf Story".

"Elf Story" and its sequel, once the benchmark of JRPG, were praised as opening a new chapter in the history of RPG games and were well received by players.

But these are the glories of the past.

With the continuous development of the times, heavy RPG games are no longer so relevant. Although there are occasional games like P5 that regain the title of masterpieces, it is an indisputable fact that JRPG itself is declining. Eagle Jump, which mainly develops JRPG, naturally began to waste its time in the tide of the times.

Although many of its past works are classics, and it has IPs like "Elf Story" that can make a living for a long time, Eagle Jump has not collapsed as easily as those small workshops, but the size of the company is indeed shrinking.

In the past two years, its turnover has even been less than that of some small workshops that develop skin-changing two-dimensional card-drawing mobile games, and it looks like it is on the decline.

If it had continued like this, Eagle Jump would have ended up like many other once glorious game companies, with a tragic end of a hero in his twilight years. However, its luck seemed to be slightly better than those of its peers, as it was acquired before it was completely overwhelmed.

The company that acquired it was not a giant in the gaming industry, nor was it a scoundrel like Vidi, but a company that had nothing to do with the gaming industry.

——Maple Leaf Technology, which develops new energy and high-tech.

Even the most backward people have heard of this name on TV, and its Ark reactor, medical robots and a series of other products have actually entered daily life and affected all aspects of human society, making people inadvertently realize the greatness of this company.

At the same time, Maple Leaf Technology's high welfare is also the object of people's envy, but in contrast to the high welfare, the high threshold for entry makes many people discouraged.

Under this premise, Eagle Jump relied on his own efforts to directly lead his employees to ascend to heaven, and they became employees of Maple Leaf Technology that everyone envied...

If you ask what changes have taken place in Eagle Jump since he became an external editor at Maple Leaf Technology, Ryoufu Aoba, as a current employee, feels that there isn't much. If there is anything that must be said, it's probably that the atmosphere has become a little more relaxed.

The feeling of precariousness within the company was particularly severe before, and everyone could sense it. Later, the atmosphere reached a point of depression as we risked everything on developing Elf Story 3.

Although the final result is not bad and it can be considered a win, as Elf Story 3 was both critically and commercially successful, the JRPG genre has ultimately come to the end of its era. Even if Elf Story 3 can barely be considered a big seller, how high can its actual sales be?

The final profit was nothing more than giving Eagle Jump an extra capital to go all in. With this life-gambling development, if there was even one failure, Eagle Jump would be doomed.

After being acquired by Maple Leaf Technologies, that precarious feeling completely disappeared and everyone became much more calm.

Maple Leaf Technologies was quite tolerant in its requirements. Initially, they just asked Eagle Jump to adapt to the new development tools step by step. It was not until a few days ago that Maple Leaf Technologies officially established a game department and put forward new work requirements.

Maple Leaf Technology's game department has developed only one game, which is "Sword Online: Resurrection", which will be used on the consciousness link device.

As an industry under the game department, Eagle Jump will naturally participate in the development, but the work content is more like outsourcing, mainly responsible for part of the art of the game, including but not limited to character modeling, monster modeling, action design, etc.

In addition, the wealthy Maple Leaf Technology not only acquired Eagle Jump, but also developed the game with the help of several well-known companies in the past. Ten years ago, it was a dream team-level production team. This also reduced the development pressure of Eagle Jump a lot, but increased the pressure in other aspects. They were all well-known game producers in the past. In horizontal comparison, we can't let others feel that "the legendary Eagle Jump is just like this?"

Therefore, everyone in Eagle Jump is working hard to prove that their past dominance in the JRPG field is not in vain.

But some time ago, a new development requirement suddenly came from the Maple Leaf Society Group.

The original work is a script with a lot of words. The plot is grand and exciting, and the relationship between the male and female protagonists is also ups and downs. There is no fighting part itself, so judging from the content, it should be similar to the type of gal or e-novel.

To be honest, this thing is completely overkill for Eagle Jump and is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

However, considering that Maple Leaf Society is the biological son of Maple Leaf Technology, and Eagle Jump is just an adopted son who has been wandering for half a lifetime, the demands from there still need to be taken a little more seriously.

Since Eagle Jump's main force Hikari Yagami has focused her energy on "Sword Online", the character design of this gal tentatively named "Thousand Years of Bonds" fell to Suzukaze Aoba, who had just joined the company but performed well in "Elf Story 3". She was a little dizzy because of the heavy workload.

How could she, with her inexperience, take on such a heavy responsibility?

She tactfully told Yagami Hikaru that she couldn't do it, and the latter said without hesitation, "Then you come to Sword Demon Realm?" So the girl decisively chose to continue to be the gal character...

Having said that, under the encouragement of his colleagues, Suzukaze Aoba tried his best to design a group of game characters. Since they were just gals, no additional modeling was required, so the characters only needed portraits and differences, which was much simpler to produce than RPGs.

If Eagle Jump had never made a gal before and had no experience in this area, they wouldn't even need to redraw the background. They could just pick a few from the past background library and make some minor modifications before using them.

Not long after Liangfeng Qingye finished all this, she suddenly received a notice from the company: Today, the Maple Leaf Society's Lotus Group will send staff to review the content of "Thousand Years of Bonds".

Everything happened so suddenly, I was not prepared at all!

Although he was wailing in his heart, Ryoufu Aoba, who had already adapted to the life of a corporate slave, had already obediently made preparations to welcome the other party.
