Love must be after the favorability reaches 99

Senior Brother! Where are you? !

Uesugi Nobuyuki glanced at the text messages on his phone. Matsusue Tetsuya said last night that he shouldn’t be contacted unless necessary, but he still chatted with him for a few minutes this morning, talking about baseball, which he seemed to love the most. He was fine in the morning, so why are the messages “unread” now?

Are you late for another date with your girlfriend?

Uesugi Nobu looked at the text message that had been ignored for more than 20 minutes, hesitated for a few seconds, and then contacted Yoshida Naoki:

[Teacher Yoshida, do you know where Tetsuya's apartment is located? ]

At the same time, he quickly switched to the account of the employee who took over and sent a message to the uncle:

[Uncle, can you come over earlier? I have something urgent to do and may have to leave. ]

After Uesugi Nobuyuki sent this message, he also sent a related text message to the store manager Takashi Miki. When he turned around, Yoshida Naoki happened to reply to his message.

[You've been asking about Zhe Ye these past two days. Is there something wrong with him? ]

[Ah? Nothing, Tetsuya just went home and accidentally left something in the store. I'll take it back to him on my way home from get off work.]

You are old, how old are you? Can your old bones still run? Just continue to be a middle-aged man chasing your dreams, and leave these trivial matters to the young people.

[Shimokita Apartment 204... Oh, okay, okay. ]

Uesugi Nobuyoshi switched to the background browser. The smart guy searched and checked on the news at the speed of light. It was okay. It was not a murder scene, but a student dormitory close to Dongxue City University. It was a cheap apartment building that provided accommodation for college students. Just looking at the name gave him an indescribable sense of security.

Not in the middle of nowhere, win!

The people living here are a bunch of fragile college students. I can beat ten of them by myself, and win big!

I looked at the physical strength of 4, ahem, be bold, college students may have physical strength of 3 or even 2!

The health level of adults is 5, but I don’t believe that there can be so many healthy college students in one building. Shouldn’t that kind of creature be a pitiful species that hides during the day and comes out at night, consuming a lot of oil and salt and eventually dies young!

Uesugi Nobuyuki went to the staff lounge to change his clothes. He didn't want to bring his schoolbag with him, as it would ruin the atmosphere, so he just left it there for the time being.

But as soon as Uesugi Shinichi walked out, he found a familiar figure standing in the convenience store.

"Yumeno?"

Yumeno Chiharu was standing alone in the convenience store. She turned her head, and her indigo eyes caught his gaze.

Uesugi Nobuyuki's movements slowed down. There seemed to be something wrong with the girl's eyes. He looked at her eyes, which were red, making him feel as if she had been crying.

She showed an indescribable smile and said softly: "Senior, good evening--"

cry? Why are you crying?

Uesugi Shin's face was stunned, and he pressed the Soul Catcher without hesitation. He had used up one charge on Matsue Tetsuya yesterday, and now he had two charges left.

Accompanied by chaotic whispers, Uesugi Shin pushed open the door of Yumeno Chiharu's heart.

Yumeno Chiharu wants to kill someone.

He wanted to take down a knife hanging on the wall and kill all the people whose figures he couldn't see clearly.

And kill the only person whose face you can see clearly.

That's her father.

[Your father owes a large sum of money, and now it is your turn to pay it back.]

The vicious whispers coming from across the phone made Uesugi Nobuyuki, who was reading the mind, open his eyes wide.

……

"Senior, I happened to pass by here and saw that you were still on duty, so I came in to take a look."

"I won't bother you any more."

Yumeno Chiharu wanted to hug him.

Meng Ye Qianqing wanted to push him away again.

After pushing him away, I still couldn't help but want to continue hugging him.

……

"Yumeno Chiharu (16)"

"Charm: 9"

"Favorability: 79"

"Description: The saddest thing is a high school girl who is heartbroken. She hates this unfair world so much that she once sincerely hoped that the world would be destroyed, but for you, she is willing to destroy herself."

"You saved her the first time, you have to save her every time after that."

Yumeno Chiharu wanted to say goodbye to Uesugi Nobuyuki, but Uesugi Nobuyuki didn't care. He pulled Yumeno Chiharu's wrist and walked out. His heart was beating fast and his breathing was unstable, but he still tried his best to stay calm.

Meng Ye Qianqing did not struggle and was just pulled away by him.

"Senior, there's no one watching the convenience store." Her voice came from behind.

Uesugi Nobuo didn't look back: "I've called someone, someone will go to the store to watch it later."

Young boys and girls were walking on the sidewalk, their figures flashing quickly under the street lights, causing the corners of their clothes to flutter in the wind.

Uesugi Shin walked faster, while Yumeno Chiharu walked slower. She was more willing to be led by him, and her eyes were firmly focused on Uesugi Shin's back.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, and she looked in the direction of the wind, only to find that they had reached the bridge.

The bridge is suspended in the air, and the steel cables are as taut as guitar strings, leaving no room for breathing.

"Senior, where are you taking me?"

"Let's go to my house." Uesugi Shin answered without any hesitation, "You can stay at my house for the time being. My house happens to be quite spacious, with two rooms left, suitable for a family member like you, Qianqing."

"Are you trying to abduct me, Senior?"

"That's about it. I think you're really pretty, Qianqing. If you were left out there, you'd be easily kidnapped. You wouldn't even have a place to cry."

"Protecting me under the name of abduction sounds like an interesting idea. It's simply a senior's specialty."

"You can interpret it that way if you want."

"But senior, your idea is very naive and it won't solve anything." Meng Ye Chiqing stopped and grabbed Uesugi Shin's hand with her backhand, asking him to stop as well.

"Generally speaking, people will think that you have ulterior motives. Bringing a young girl home is like saying 'I'm going to attack you tonight'. So, from a common sense point of view, your suggestion is still a very disgusting one."

Uesugi Shin made an amused expression and said, "You are still calling me disgusting. Can't you be a little more lenient with me?"

"Senior, if you find it annoying, tell me."

"Forget it then. It's quite interesting to hear what you feel, Qianqing."

Uesugi Shin squeezed Yumeno Chiharu's hand tightly. The girl's palms were very cold, which made people feel uneasy to touch.

"I'm helping you escape." Uesugi Nobuyuki hesitated for a few seconds. Even if he had to gamble all his emotional intelligence for the rest of his life, he couldn't say or do anything wrong at this moment.

"Haven't you heard of this saying? Every love story has a template. It's either a brave man fighting a dragon or a knight taking a princess on the run. People generally regard these two stories as romantic. From ancient times to the present, countless infatuated men and women have been trapped in these two stories."

"What kind are you, senior?"

"For now, I am just a knight who can only run away secretly with the princess, but one day I will become a brave man who faces the nine-headed dragon. You are right, I am so confident that I am conceited, but I want to say that this is the confidence that Xiao Ai-san has given me."

One day, the knight who sneaked out of the castle with the princess under the moonlight will hold a holy sword and ride a steed... Bah, the level is too low, is the identity of a brave man worthy of my classmate Xiao Ai? What I want to do is to be the Monkey King who steps on the colorful clouds. If you don’t even have this kind of ambition, what are you playing the game of perfect life?

"I'm not a princess."

"What a coincidence! I'm not a prince either."

"Whatever you say makes sense, forget it, Senior..."

Yumeno Chiharu stood by the bridge. The wind was very strong at night, let alone standing directly on the bridge like this.

Wind blows,

"You're just saying that you like me, right, Senior?"

Uesugi Nobuyuki glanced at her, carefully, looking her up and down, his eyes fixed on her indigo pupils.

"I kind of like you, but I'm not sure if you're marriage material... So we can just make do with each other for a trial period. Isn't it said that sharing a house is the best way to test a couple's compatibility? Then why don't we try sharing a house for a while?"

"Favorability: 85"

The moment she heard him admit that he liked her, the favorability level started to jump.

"Senior, you have a very good plan."

Meng Ye Qianqing turned to look at him: "Why don't you smile, Senior? If you show a smiling expression, it will make people feel more relaxed, Senior."

Uesugi Shin followed her example and looked at the river below the bridge, and said frankly: "Sorry, I can't laugh."

"So you really can read minds, Senior."

"Did you see it?"

"Well, it gives people a feeling of... being disgusting."

"I'm so sorry."

"But if it's you, Senior, I forgive you."

Chiharu Yumeno put her hands on the guardrail at the side of the bridge, stood on the sidewalk separated by the curb, and quietly looked at the brightly lit city skyline in the distance.

As if opening a conversation box, Meng Ye Qianqing began to say: "Senior, I don't have the courage to kill anyone."

"I have been a coward from the beginning to the end. Whenever I was bullied, I thought about killing them. But for seven years, nothing happened. I didn't dare to do anything. I could only imagine it in my mind. The day of real resistance was when you pushed me. You were in front of me, and then I dared to step forward."

"Now, I want to kill my father."

"But once this thought came up, it would linger in my mind. I thought about it for a long time and came up with many reasons to hate him. I even thought about standing in front of him with a knife, but the last step, even if I imagined it, I couldn't imagine it..."

What kind of courage did she have to imagine killing her father with a knife?

So even if it was just the uncontrolled imagination in her mind, the knife would stop in front of her father's neck. One inch forward would cut his neck, but this inch would represent her love for her father that she would never be able to overcome.

"Have I told you, Senior, that he used to be a very good person?"

"It would be great if he was a purely hateful person. I could hate him without reservation and cut his throat with a knife without any reason, but he is so nice to me..."

Uesugi Nobuyuki just listened quietly. Yumeno Chiharu could talk about her childhood memories, about all the good things her parents had done for her when her mother was alive. She talked about the time her father secretly took out the pathetic pocket money of a middle-aged man to buy her toys, and about how she didn't like the smell of cigarettes so her father quit smoking for her. There were so many good things about her father in her memory, and those good things made her willing to try to forgive her father even when she suffered a lot later.

"I don't understand why he made my life so miserable, but as long as I think of the little good things he did, I will try to believe him, believe that he is still the gentle and honest father. Even if he killed someone, I still imagine in my heart that he is righteous..."

Having said this, Meng Ye Qianqing stopped, facing the cold wind, and suddenly asked: "Senior, have you ever hated anyone from the bottom of your heart?"

Uesugi Nobuyuki felt the night breeze and nodded, "Yes, I did."

"Do you still hate that person now?"

"Not anymore." Uesugi Nobuyuki tapped the bridge guardrail and whispered, "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I say this. I hated that person for two years, but in fact I missed her for seven years. My hatred for her was not as long-lasting and deep as I imagined. Now all that's left is longing and reminiscence."

Uesugi Nobu said: "I wanted to see her again, but unfortunately I don't have the chance."

Meng Ye Qianqing whispered: "Is it no longer possible to see you? Then you are really pitiful, Senior."

She tried to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, but they wouldn't go away no matter how hard she tried. She thought about avoiding Uesugi Nobuyuki's sight, but when she looked up, she couldn't help but look for him.

"Senior, will you commit suicide with me?"

"Let's choose tomorrow. I'll do anything you ask me tonight, Senior."

Uesugi Nobu was silent for a long time, looked to the other side, shook his head and said the truth: "I am still young and don't want to die."

"Favorability: 89"

Meng Ye Qianqing looked down at the sparkling river surface, imagining jumping from here, and the sound of the wind was whistling in her ears.

"That's a shame. If we jump from here tomorrow, it will be on the news the day after tomorrow, right? Will it be said that high school students committed suicide for love? In the future, this place may become a suicide site in urban legends, and every suicide season, someone may jump down to accompany us."

"This statement is not attractive at all." Uesugi Shin shook his head and said, "I just realized that Qianqing, you really can't even speak. This cold statement can only attract a few people with a bit of literary youth disease. Why don't you listen to me?"

Uesugi Nobu took a deep breath and said, "I will definitely protect you, so just let me abduct you without worry."

"why?"

"I want to take you to see the October cherry blossoms."

The girl named Yumeno Chiharu only dares to kill herself.

He doesn't want her to die, so he will find something worth her staying for.

But what was there for Meng Ye Qianqing to miss? She didn't miss anything but him.

"Just come with me and see it."

"Can I trust you, Senior?"
