Finally, I became their white moonlight

They held hands and chattered each other, and occasionally couldn't help but hug each other and do things that only lovers could do, savoring the taste of the first kiss that seemed to never change, and leaving traces of tenderness in secret that could not be known to outsiders.

It was almost twelve o'clock when they finally arrived at the gate of the villa.

——Crack.

Ming Hai pressed the door handle and found that the door of the villa was indeed locked.

But this little trick is of no use to him - during his long working life in previous years, he also taught himself some lock-picking skills.

As long as it is not an electronic lock, he can open the door of an ordinary house whenever he wants without any difficulty.

So with a confident smile, Ming Hai took out from his pocket...

Spare key.

There are two spare keys in total, one is with him and the other should be with Su Shi.

——The prerequisite for picking a lock is that you don’t have the key, and he is not the kind of idiot who would forget to bring his key when he goes out.

After opening the door with a relaxed look, they saw a young girl sitting on a bench in front of the suddenly lit entrance, with a stern face, staring at them with her eyes wide open.

It's just like a strict mother who finds out that her children have gone out to surf the Internet in the middle of the night and deliberately waits for them to come back at the door.

"You finally decided to come back? Why don't you just spend the night in the wild?"

Before the two entered the door, Nagasaki Motoyo crossed her arms and fired a sharp tone at them like bullets from a machine gun, "It's already eleven o'clock, and you don't even want to reply to a message to report that you are safe. Do you really think we can just go to bed peacefully? Everyone is very worried that something happened to you on the mountain. No one can sleep here without confirming your safety. Do you really understand this?"

Shoko Toyokawa subconsciously stood up straight, put her hands in front of her, and lowered her head to listen to the lecture obediently.

After Ming Hai slowly closed the door, he raised his hands in surrender.

"I was wrong, Mother Sushi. I won't do this again."

Nagasaki Sushi's expression froze, and an angry blush immediately appeared on her cheeks. There were faint blue veins throbbing on her forehead: "Sushi... Mom? Are you trying to say that when I start nagging, I'm like an old lady?!"

"Nothing." Ming Hai said seriously, looking at her sincerely, "I just felt your motherly care and tenderness. Because I was so moved, I couldn't help but call you mom."

"……puff!"

Toyokawa Shoko finally couldn't hold it anymore.

She covered her mouth, her shoulders trembling as she turned her face away, trying hard to hold back a very rude laugh, not daring to look at Su Shi who was glaring at her sharply.

But soon, when she thought of Ming Hai's identity as an orphan, she couldn't laugh anymore - even though he didn't care, when she heard the words "It's because I was so moved that I couldn't help but call you mother", Toyokawa Shoko couldn't help but be touched.

I really want to hug him, comfort him, show him my motherly love, and let him feel at ease relying on me.

Of course, Nagasaki Suyo was unable to empathize with her now. She only felt that the better their relationship became, the more similar they were - in terms of stimulating emotions, they also had the power to make people angry and helpless.

"Really... Anyway, I'll have a good 'chat' with you guys tomorrow morning." Nagasaki Motoyo frowned, resisted the urge to yawn, turned around and urged, "Now go back and wash up, change into pajamas and get ready for bed."

“Ah, yes!”

Somewhat surprised by her gentle handling, Toyokawa Shoko was stunned for a moment before quickly chasing after the brown-haired girl, not forgetting to say goodbye to Minghai.

"Mr. Narumi, I'll go back to my room now!"

"Well, I have to tidy up as well. Go to bed early. Good night."

"good evening!"

After the girls disappeared from his sight, Ming Hai slowly put away the smile on his face and let out a heavy and long sigh.

Carrying his mountaineering bag, he walked towards his room, opening the translucent panel that only he could see, and a dim light flashed in his eyes.

[Stage 4: Echoes—Achievements achieved.]

Below a line of conspicuous large characters is an explanation that is completely different from the past.

[Hint: Toyokawa Shoko's emotional energy has reached the expected level and has begun to enter the final process of obtaining energy. ]

[——Exit by death, and become Toyokawa Shoko's eternal white moonlight. ]

[The system will provide the host with a reasonable way to die. Please choose a way to die within the time limit and be ready to leave this world at any time.]

[If the host does not make a choice within the time limit, the system will automatically arrange a tragic death for the host in front of the mission target, so as to obtain the maximum emotional energy.]

Seeing this, Ming Hai couldn't help but click his tongue and shook his head in sigh.

"System, oh system, you are the one who deserves to die the most... No, thing, right?"

Only a machine without any conscience could write such cruel words as "The system will automatically arrange for the host to die tragically in front of the mission target, in order to obtain the maximum amount of emotional energy"?

His mood now is completely different from the past - when looking at the panel, only emotions such as anger towards the system and pity for Xiangzi are surging in his chest. He can no longer maintain an indifferent mood to complete the subsequent tasks.

Even so, Ming Hai's mind was still clear. He took a deep breath and suppressed the excess emotions deep inside his body. He continued to look at the system prompts at the back with a calm expression.

【Reward: Death Plan. 】

[The reward has been issued, please confirm it yourself. 】

The hand that was about to open the door just stopped in mid-air, and Ming Hai opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

"Death...plan?"

Volume 130: Chapter Chapter Death Plan

Ming Hai quickly entered the room, locked the door, threw the backpack to the corner, frowned, and clicked to receive the reward.

At the same time a small black notebook fell into his hands out of nowhere, he also understood how to use it.

"A death notebook just for me? You actually think of this as a reward..."

He just felt that the system was cold-blooded and ruthless, but now it gives him the room to choose his own ending?

Ming Hai twitched the corners of his mouth, not looking happy at all.

——【Death Plan】is a tool with a very simple purpose. Everything it does is to allow him to die peacefully.

There is no power that can be exchanged for life, and there will be no god of death that only you can see.

Even all those blank pages were just for decoration. With only one life, he could only write one way of dying. Even if he wanted to set up the cause and effect and stage scenes in great detail like writing a script, he would only need two or three pages at most. If he wrote down the rest of the insignificant or impossible things, the traces would soon disappear automatically.

There are many restrictions on the ways of death he can write in the notebook - first, they must be reasonable, second, he cannot control the minds of others, and finally, he cannot arrange things other than the death process.

For example.

Ming Hai could write [A meteorite fell from the sky and killed him], because no matter how small the probability is, there is a possibility that such a thing will happen; although it is not in line with human common sense, it is also part of the "common sense of the world."

And things like [the resurrected Lao Da dropped from the sky and hit himself to death with an elbow], [the instant kill cheat was too powerful and the one hanging on the wall was killed with one glance]...these things are theoretically impossible to happen in the real world, and of course they cannot be written down in a notebook.

Because of the existence of the second point, he also could not write an overly dramatic plot like "someone wanted to assassinate Toyokawa Shoko, and he died heroically to protect her."

Unless such a thing really happens one day in the future, he can indeed make everything go smoothly by arranging an accident instead of arranging a murderer.

But Ming Hai wrote it tentatively.

The fact that the method of death left no traces meant that Toyokawa Shoko would be safe for at least the next few months. No rivals of the Toyokawa family would want to assassinate her, and he naturally would not be able to die by accident.

While feeling relieved by this, Ming Hai also discovered something.

——『Accident』 is the core of 【Death Plan】.

He could have a truck driver run him over, simply by arranging an accident where a truck lost control.

It is also possible to make the guardrail on the mountain fall down with a push, as long as there is a precautionary measure for the accident that the screws may accidentally loosen.

Everything is limited to "accidents", but "accidents" can give birth to infinite possibilities - he can even arrange an unexpected natural disaster, find an opportunity for Toyokawa Shoko to go abroad, and let the entire island country sink with him.

Just like the god of death who can be controlled freely and has infinite influence.

With this one and only opportunity, Ming Hai can let all humans accompany him to experience the feeling of "Death is Coming".

Because to the system, it doesn't matter how many people die - as long as Toyokawa Shoko can stay alive and produce emotional energy in despair, that's enough.

"Giving this kind of causal rate-level item to an ordinary person like me... As expected, the system and

Retract the preface.

This is not to give him room for choice, but to let him face the difficulty of making a choice...

Ming Hai shook his head and sighed, trying hard to resist the urge to stimulate it. He twirled the pen between his fingers and continued to explore the functions of the notebook.

——Although the system said that the world line would be reset after his death, and everything would return to the way it was before he traveled through time.

But he was not interested in dying as brilliantly as the fireworks in Hiroshima, and he didn't want to bring too much impact to Su Shi and the others.

Xiangzi was targeted by the system, and he had no way to change it, but for others...

Ming Hai even hoped that by that time they wouldn't even know when they died, and would just forget everything without noticing anything in the restarted world line.

Unfortunately, the third law of the [Death Plan] stipulates that he cannot arrange anything outside the death process.

Otherwise, he could have written [Except Toyokawa Shoko, no one noticed his death] and directly avoided the possibility of a tragic death in front of everyone - the ending where no one would be hurt except the tragic heroine Shoko would be achieved.

Thinking of this, Ming Hai flipped through the white pages of the notebook. There was clearly nothing written on it, but he could see the word "persecution" all over it.

He couldn't help but complain: "System, what on earth did Xiangzi do to you? She is so young, so well-behaved, so cute, so reserved... a good kid who has never done anything bad, why is she destined to face that level of despair?"

"Could it be that she is actually a holy grail, whose mission is to bear all the malice in this world?"

As always, the system had absolutely no answer for him.

Ming Hai did not expect to get an answer, and simply turned the notebook to the first page. He took off the cap and tapped the pen heavily on the white paper, but there was no visible ink spread.

At last.

Once the "plan" is executed, the written death cannot be changed.

The final word is finally delivered.

Just like rivers with countless branches, which will eventually be quietly swallowed up by the sea - seemingly free and diverse choices, there is always only one ending leading to it.

…And now, it’s time for the final decision.

Although the room was extremely empty, a feeling of being suffocated by the air gradually filled the area around him, causing Ming Hai to subconsciously purse his lips, his eyes fixed, and his brows furrowed so tightly that he couldn't relax.

After a while.

He tapped his inexplicably heavy head, let out a long breath, and raised his head again, trying to free himself from the pressure and regain the feeling of being a "ruthless task master" in the past.

"So, should I use this reward?"

"If I were to use it, what kind of death would I use to make my sweet and lovely girlfriend heartbroken?"

Ming Hai muttered to himself, his stiff lips trying to raise into an angle of relief, his tone pretending to be relaxed and casual.

But only the fingertips were shaking from the exertion.

Ka!

The pen broke and he threw it away, and another pen fell on top of the notebook.

Break it and throw it away.

This happened four or five times, and he soon gave up this pointless venting behavior.

——The pens provided by the system are unlimited. Even if the room is filled with broken pens, it cannot change the situation he needs to face.

In order to change his mood, Ming Hai reopened the system panel and first looked at the time limit for making a choice.

"Until six o'clock tomorrow morning?" He really can't wait...

Pursing his lips, he clicked on the various ways to die provided by the system. Lines of text suddenly expanded in front of him, and the huge translucent panel was almost instantly filled with dense text. Even the set meals in fast food restaurants all over the world did not have as rich a variety of ways to die as these.

Like drowning, electrocution, being crushed to death, gas explosion, mountain disaster, stabbing with a kitchen knife, falling from a height, burning in a forest fire...

Ming Hai was completely refreshed by what he saw. He never expected that just in this resort area, there were so many dangers that could lead to his accidental death. Moreover, the ways of death were completely different. Even if he had a strong physique, he might not be able to return home alive from here unless he had Uncle B's "Twelve Trials".

However, after a quick look, he did not see any unexpected events that would allow him to safely hand over his life to the system, so he simply scrolled to the bottom and looked at the death plan that the system would execute by default if he did not make a choice.

[In order to save the distracted Toyokawa Shoko, he was smashed into a pulp by an out-of-control truck and died tragically in front of her. 】

"..."

After a moment of silence, Ming Hai couldn't help but curl his lips and complained: "Isn't this too cliché? It's been months of preparation, and you still use such a straightforward routine to end it. Aren't you a bit sorry for my efforts during this period?!"

Although this routine is indeed concise and powerful.

All he needs is a big truck, and he can easily become Toyokawa Shoko's white moonlight, and by the way, harvest the girl's current emotional energy full of despair and grief to a great extent...

But Ming Hai still didn't want to do this - or rather, didn't want to die so easily.

He could understand the system's pursuit of efficiency. If he was really desperate and had completely given up struggling, unwilling to bear the responsibility for the choice he made that caused his girlfriend to despair and collapse, he might really leave everything to the system and resign himself to enjoying the last moments that would officially end at an unknown time.

However, after seeing these rich and varied ways of dying, Ming Hai suddenly had a new idea, which prompted him to tentatively write a line in his notebook.
