[Sankaku Hatsuka looked at Toyokawa Shoko with a compassionate and complicated look.]
"Xiangzi..."
[“Chuhua, don’t say anything, okay?”]
Before Sankaku Hatsuka could even begin to speak, Toyokawa Shoko took the initiative and came to Sankaku Hatsuka's side. Unlike Wakaba Mutsu, who could use some means to coerce her, the only card she could play with Sankaku Hatsuka was her emotions.
[However, the emotional card happens to be the best way to deal with Sanjiao Chuhua.]
"Chuhua, you swore that you would always support me and be with me. We agreed that you would make me forget all the pain, right?"
“Xiangzi, I…!”
[She rested her head gently on Sankaku Hatsuka's shoulder. From an angle that Sankaku Hatsuka couldn't see, the corners of Toyokawa Shoko's mouth curved slightly.]
"Chuhua, I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, you and Mu are different from those two women. I won't do anything to you. You're my best friends. We'll always be in the same band, forever..."
Volume 1: Chapter 30: Twins
【Hachiman Kairin also left the band.】
【And with Hachiman Kailing's departure, the distance between you and your lover is growing.】
【One month, two months, three months.】
[The deleted number never returned to Toyokawa Shoko's phone. Even though you still loved each other, your respective beliefs made neither of you willing to turn back.]
【But even so, you still care about your lover. 】
So, after some inner struggle, you decided to talk to Toyokawa Shoko. You felt that after several months, she should have come to terms with it. Furthermore, the two men in the band who were considered dangerous to her had already left, so she should be able to talk to you calmly now.
[However, when you find Toyokawa Shoko, she is still as stubborn as ever.]
"Lu Li, you're helping Yutenji Ruomai, right? Hachiman Hailing is still in contact with you, right? I'm telling you, as long as these two are still with you, we can't go back to the way things were."
[Toyokawa Shoko made a final ultimatum. You must make a choice between her, Hachiman Kailing, and Yutenji Wakami.]
"Xiangzi, do you really have to choose? You know there's nothing going on between them and me. You've already kicked them out of the band. Now they're just ordinary people. They won't threaten you. Can't you just let them go?"
"I can't." Toyokawa Shoko looked at you coldly. Of course she couldn't, because this wasn't a choice made against Hachiman Kailing and Yutenji Wakami, but against you.
[A few months have passed, and just as you expected, she no longer cares about Yutenji Wakami and Hachiman Kairei. However, she still wants you to make this choice because she wants to use it to make you bow down.]
[Toyokawa Shoko knew that she could use her emotions to bind Sanjiao Hatsuka, she could use coercion to bind Wakaba Mu, she could even use force to bind every member of the band who would join her, but she had no way of binding you.]
So she wants to use something to force you to obey her, so that you can obey her orders like everyone else and become her "eternal lover" from then on.
"Shoko, I'm not your puppet." You saw what Toyokawa Shoko was thinking.
[“No, Lu Li, you are not my puppet. I just hope you can listen to me.”]
"If everything is up to you, then what's the difference between me and a puppet?"
【“You don’t want to?” Toyokawa Shoko looked at you. 】
"If it were you, would you be willing?" you asked.
【“…”】
[Your question ultimately received no answer, but in fact, no answer is the best answer. ]
A few months later, your deleted number was never added back. One night, you received a gift box sent by Toyokawa Shoko. When you opened it, you found a set of keys.
You are very familiar with this set of keys. They are the keys to your rental apartment. You once gave them to Xiangzi so that she could come to you at any time. Now that she has returned them to you, the meaning behind this is self-evident.
[Looking at this bunch of keys, your mind flashes back to the time when you first met Xiangzi. Her face was pure and spotless at that time, without a trace of dirt.]
[You suddenly laughed, loudly, and with a sense of relief...]
The next morning, you checked out of the apartment you rented and left Tokyo with your sister. Not only was your sister by your side, but also Hachiman Kairin and Yutenji Wakami.
"Lu Li, I still want to learn how to write light novels with you. Don't even think about leaving me behind!"
"Go live in seclusion in the countryside? Together?"
[Looking at the two people in front of you, you smiled again.]
Someone once said that some things that are unattainable will haunt one's life, but life is so long, and who can be sure that the things that are unattainable are really what one pursues throughout life?
[Just because you can't get what you want doesn't mean it's right, and the right thing might actually be right next to you...]
[Simulation ends. 】
[This simulation has ended. This simulation is rated S-level.]
[You achieved an ending: Twins]
[Congratulations, you have successfully achieved the "perfect" ending that belongs to Toyokawa Shoko. ]
[You receive a simulated evaluation from the system: In fact, there are people more worthy of your love.]
[Your simulation times +1]
[Simulated Settlement: You Gained a New Skill - Light Novel (Intermediate)]
[Light Novel (Intermediate): You have mastered the method of writing light novels. With this skill, you can write at least one novel that will keep you from starving to death under any circumstances.]
[Because you achieved a "perfect" ending for a character, the level of your ability gained this time has been increased.]
[Light Novel (Intermediate) upgraded to Light Novel (Advanced)]
Light Novel (Advanced): After years of hard work, you're no longer just another flop. Now, with just a few clicks, you can easily win top prizes on websites like "Become a Light Novelist." With just one more step, you could become a true master.
"Is this the perfect ending?"
Looking at the prompt given by the system, Lu Li was stunned.
This ending has nothing to do with perfection no matter how you look at it?
"System, are you kidding me? If you say this is a perfect ending, then I think my time as a dog was also perfect."
[This ending is of course a "perfect" ending. ]
"What's perfect about it?"
[Of course it's perfect, because for you and Xiangzi, you both got the life you wanted, right? ]
"Ah? So this is what you mean by perfection?!"
[Yes, host, do you remember? The goal of this simulation is to allow everyone to live the life they want. Host, think about it, isn't this simulation about everyone having the life they want?]
"Hiss, you really mean it."
In this simulation, I let go of my obsession with Toyokawa Shoko and chose to live in seclusion in the countryside with Hachiman Kailing and Yutenji Wakami. I think I must be living a happy life, and Toyokawa Shoko in the simulation also got everything she wanted. In this way, it is really perfect.
"Okay, okay, this is a perfect method, right? Okay, I approve of your fun system!"
[Host, please do not slander this system. This system simply presents an ending that matches the current personalities and situations of the host and Toyokawa Shoko.]
......
at the same time.
[Faced with a lover who refuses to come back, you stubbornly choose to let go. Since he won't listen to you, you can wait until he obeys you before getting back together. So you return the key he once gave you, believing that he will eventually come back...]
Volume 1: Chapter 31 I must take revenge!
[However, you are wrong this time. This time he did not bow to you.]
What awaits you is an empty little house. He's gone, along with the people you hate the most, Hachiman Kailing and Yutenji Wakami.
"So what if he leaves?" you think. Now that the band is successful and you've become a sought-after and famous musician, with such lucrative opportunities, you're not afraid he won't come back.
[But the fact is that you are wrong again, one month, two months, half a year, one year, two years.]
[As time went by, your band finally became a top band and you were crowned the Queen of Rock, but you never heard from her again.]
[Another year, on your birthday, at a lively and grand banquet, everyone who appeared before you wore fake smiles, and you felt disgusted.]
You turned around to look at your band members, but suddenly realized that the ones you were looking forward to, Wakaba Mu and Sanka Hatsuka, were not with you, and the remaining two musicians, whose names you didn't even know, also had fake smiles on their faces.
"Where are Muhe and Chuhua?" you asked.
"Mu said she felt unwell and went home, and Chuhua said she had other things to do." The remaining two musicians answered you like this.
[At this moment, you were stunned. You only now realized that even if you used a trick to lock them up, you couldn't keep their hearts.]
You're extremely upset. You drive back to your luxurious mansion, and all you see is your fawning father. He's holding a gift he bought somewhere, with a fake smile on his face. You know he wants to take this opportunity to ask you for more money.
You used a sum of money to send your father away. You sat in an empty mansion. It was your birthday, but you didn't feel any joy.
[“Am I wrong?” Your voice echoed throughout the empty mansion, but no one could answer your question.]
The next day, you drove to an address you'd already researched. After half a day, you arrived in a rural area you'd never heard of. There, you found a tea restaurant that couldn't be more ordinary.
"Welcome... Xiangzi?!"
When she walked into the restaurant, Toyokawa Shoko heard a familiar voice at once. She looked up and saw Hachiman Kailing sitting at the cashier with a surprised look on her face.
"Hai Ling, long time no see."
"Xiangzi, long time no see."
The two people who hadn't seen each other for many years greeted each other calmly. As time passed, neither of them would mention what had happened in the past.
"Hai Ling, you, have long hair?"
Her eyes fell on Hachiman Kailing, and Toyokawa Shoko immediately saw the change in her appearance. The black hair that originally only reached her shoulders in her memory now reached her waist.
"Yeah, this looks good."
When she heard Toyokawa Shoko talking about her long hair, Hachiman Kailing, who was leaning back in her chair, smiled happily.
This looks good, Lu Li said.
"Xiangzi, why are you here?"
"I, I heard you were here, so I came to see."
"That's it..."
Hachiman Hailing turned her head and looked towards a corner of the store: "Ruomai, Ruomai, come out quickly, a customer is coming."
Following the sound of Hachiman Kailing, a figure emerged from the corner. "Ah? If you have guests, just let Xiaolian greet them. I'm just getting into writing and I'm in a hurry!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the person who appeared in front of Toyokawa Shoko was Yutenji Wakamaki, who was wearing home clothes and glasses and had a completely different style from the urban beauty she used to be. Now Yutenji Wakamaki was wearing slippers and dressed quite casually, looking like a shut-in.
"What kind of guests? How could any guests come here so early in the morning... Eh?! Xiangzi?!"
When he walked into the front hall, Yutenji Wakami realized that the person coming was Toyokawa Shoko.
"Ruomai, long time no see."
Toyokawa Shoko greeted Yutenji Wakumai.
"Wow, wow, wow, it's really Xiangzi, Xiangzi, long time no see!"
"So it's Xiangzi who's here. No wonder you asked me to come out..."
"Ruomai, are you still writing light novels?"
Shoko Toyokawa knew that Wakami Yutenji had been writing light novels since she kicked him out of the band.
Hearing Toyokawa Shoko mention that she was writing a novel, Yutenji Wakami became excited: "Yes, yes, Shoko, my new novel just won the gold medal in the library, maybe it will be made into an animation!"
"That's really congratulations."
"Ruomai, stop talking to Xiangzi about your novel. Go make him a cup of tea."
"Ah! Make some tea. Oh, I forgot, Hailing, it's inconvenient for you to come out. I'll be there right away!"
After hearing what Hachiman Kairin said, Yutenji Wakami remembered that it was inconvenient for Hachiman Kairin to make tea for Toyokawa Shoko.
"Inconvenient? Hailing, you..."
When she heard that Hachiman Kailin was inconvenient, Toyokawa Shoko realized that since she entered the store, she had only seen Hachiman Kailin sitting on the chair inside the cash register without moving. Did something happen to Hachiman Kailin's body?
Thinking of this, Shoko Toyokawa moved closer to the cash register. When she was completely next to the cash register, what caught Shoko Toyokawa's eyes was the bulging belly of Hachiman Kailing.
