Teacher Daxiang, let’s form a lifelong band!

"Brother, I'm sorry, it's all because of me..."

Lian's face was full of self-blame. She thought, if it weren't for her, Lu Li would probably be living a completely different life now. After all, her brother was willing to work hard and was very capable. If he hadn't brought her back from the street that night, the money Lu Li earned over the years would definitely be enough for him to go to college.

"Lian, what are you thinking about? We are family, aren't we? Isn't that what family is? Besides, Ant Claw is Ant Claw, Crab Boy is Crab Boy, and Taste is Taste. When you graduate from college, Lian, you will be a top student from a famous university. Talented people will be snatched up everywhere. By then, maybe big companies will be begging you to join them. If that day really comes, I might be the one holding you back.

At this point, Lu Li joked, "If that day ever comes, Lian, remember not to tell anyone about our relationship, or it will ruin your reputation."

Well, if there really comes a day when a female elite from a well-known company is linked to a brother who sells crepes, it would be embarrassing indeed. Lu Li himself doesn't care, but he doesn't want his sister's reputation to be affected.

"would not!"

"If that day ever comes, I will never allow anyone to tarnish your reputation. You are Lian's elder brother, and you will always be!

There was a strange emotion in the girl's eyes.

If anyone slandered her beloved brother, she would kill that person, she swore.

(Just to set the stage ~ By the way, please give me some data!)

Volume 1: Chapter 14 I achieve my dream with my own hands

"Simulate it."

Lu Li's rental house was very small, with one bedroom, a living room, and a bathroom. It was the most common type of low-rent housing in Tokyo, with a kitchen integrated into the living room.

There was only one bedroom in the house, and it was naturally given to the girl. As for Lu Li himself, he used a partition-like method to separate a small area from the living room for his own use.

After watching his sister enter the room, Lu Li naturally opened the simulator. He played each game at a time. Whether he could really change his name against all odds depended on this. He couldn't really sell crepes in Tokyo for the rest of his life.

"Brother, give me a good reward!"

[Simulation begins. 】

[Number of simulations - 1, the current number of remaining simulations is 0. ]

[Through the last simulation, you realized that your musical skills are indeed insufficient. Without someone to teach you how to improve, you must seek other ways to approach Toyokawa Shoko.]

[However, the resources you have are too few. You think hard and finally you set your sights on your hands.]

“Only with my own hands can I achieve my dream.”

[Now You See Me, a Grand Resurrection!]

"???"

"Am I going to set foot in the dark world right from the start this time?!"

"No, don't do this kind of thing. This isn't a life simulator, it's a crime simulator!"

【...】

You calmed down. After all, you're a sunny, good young man. Unless absolutely necessary, you think you can still stick to your moral bottom line!

"What do you mean? If I have to, I can break my moral bottom line, right?"

"Oh wait, it seems I have no morals left."

You decided to work hard to make money. You now possess unique skills. Even if they don't affect the dark world, these special little tricks can actually help you improve your life.

"That's right. With so many little skills, they must have some other uses. Let me see what my options are."

[You relied on your understanding of the dark world to successfully find a security job working the night shift in an upscale residential complex.]

"Last time it was a thief, this time it's a security guard, a reversal of two levels, right?"

"That's fine, at least it's a decent job."

[You do have a special understanding of theft prevention. Your security income is much higher than that of ordinary security guards.]

"Your income from crepes was already good, and with this security guard salary, your financial situation has noticeably improved since you got your new job."

【Once you have money, you can operate in many areas.】

You found Toyokawa Shoko and told her you wanted to join the band. Although you didn't have much talent, you could financially support her. You didn't expect to become a member of the band, you just wanted to help her realize her dream.

After hearing your words, Toyokawa Shoko was deeply moved. She hadn't expected you to be willing to help her. You successfully joined the band through sponsorship.

【The clue "Toyokawa Shoko's Family Plan (Part 1)" is effective.】

【The clue "Toyokawa Shoko's Family Plan (Part 2)" is effective. 】

【The clue "Toyokawa Shoko's Family Affairs (Part 3)" is effective. 】

[As the only person who knows Toyokawa Shoko's current situation and is willing to help her, Toyokawa Shoko trusts you. She's under a lot of pressure, and she needs someone to listen to her complaints and let her vent. You've become her best resource.]

[Your intimacy with Toyokawa Shoko has increased! ]

"!!!"

Seeing that the intimacy between himself and Shoko Toyokawa in the simulator had increased, Lu Li and Rem.

This has been simulated so many times, but this is the first time he has seen this prompt. It’s not easy!

With your support and help, Toyokawa Shoko gradually solidified the band's embryonic form through her own efforts. At the same time, thanks to your financial support, she was able to perfectly hide the fact that she was indeed down and out from the other members.

After the first performance, Toyokawa Shoko, no longer so poor, chose to enjoy a celebration party with her bandmates. She also secretly sent you photos of the celebration party. Seeing her and the bandmates' smiles at the celebration party, you smiled as you patrolled the night sky. Although it was a bit hard, your efforts were worth it.

[Toyokawa Shoko is very grateful for your support and she promises to repay you when she gets the profit from the band.]

You are still her only lover, although she will be curious about why the time you spend chatting with her on the phone is always a little erratic.

As time went by, Toyokawa Shoko's band received great acclaim and its fame gradually grew.

[Although their fame has increased, it's not easy for a band to make a profit. Her band still needs time, but you... don't have much time.]

[But even so, you still want to help Toyokawa Shoko, because she is the white moonlight in your heart. ]

In the winter of the following year, you fell ill from overwork. You were seriously ill and bedridden. You weren't Superman, working day and night, setting up shop and working security at night. How could you possibly handle it?

[Also in the winter of that year, Ave Mujica's name resounded throughout Tokyo, and a new generation of superstar girl band emerged.]

On the day the band finally achieved success, Toyokawa Shoko, with her huge dividends in hand, wanted to tell you the news. However, all she got was a dead phone number and an online account that had long been cancelled.

You and your sister Lian left Tokyo and went to a distant countryside. You didn't want Toyokawa Shoko to know about your situation because you didn't want her to feel like she owed you anything. All of this was your own effort and had nothing to do with her.

In the countryside, you spent year after year.

Your sister has grown up. She graduated from the University of Tokyo with honors and now has a good job. You once picked her up when she was homeless and adopted her. Now, it's Lian's turn to take care of you.

Lian treats you very well. She doesn't mind you becoming her parasite. The supplements you need every month are astronomical, but Lian doesn't care. She uses all her income to support you, hoping that you can live well.

[However, you know very well that your physical condition is getting worse and worse. The damage caused by overwork is irreparable, and you will probably never be able to recover.]

[Unlike you, Lian is still young. She should have her own life. She shouldn't have to pay for yours. Besides, you brought this upon yourself. You have no right and no desire to rely on Lian anymore. Lian deserves a better life.]

So, late one night, you left a suicide note, and finally, you struggled to reach a cliff. You picked up the phone Lian bought for you and played Ave Mujica's latest single. You listened to the pleasant melody, recalled the proud posture of your beloved Bai Yueguang on the stage, and you smiled...

[Simulation ends. 】

Volume 1: Chapter 15: Reject All Great Teacher Behavior

[Simulation ends. 】

[This simulation has ended and the evaluation is B]

[You receive a simulation evaluation from the system: A world where only you are hurt has been achieved.]

[Simulated Settlement: You have acquired a new skill - Unwavering Perseverance (Intermediate)]

[Unbreakable Perseverance (Intermediate): Long-term, high-intensity work is no longer a problem for you. At least next time, you won't collapse from excessive fatigue.]

[Your simulation times +1]

You have obtained a clue: Toyokawa Shoko's Family Affairs (Part 4)

Toyokawa Shoko's Family Affairs (Part 4): One of the necessary clues for Toyokawa Shoko's perfect ending, and also a prerequisite for entering the next stage of the simulation. [Clue: The girl has a strong heart and doesn't want others to see her vulnerable side, but she also needs someone to help her shoulder the responsibility.]

【Settlement completed.】

"Only B-rank? Isn't this a good ending?"

Lu Li didn't care about his death in the simulator. What he cared about more was that this time the evaluation was only B. Logically speaking, if the team didn't crash, this simulation would have been very good, but he didn't expect the evaluation to be not even A.

[This simulator rejects all behavior of the Great Teacher. The ultimate goal of the simulation is to create a world where everyone can smile. Please work hard.]

"Creating a world where everyone smiles is a bit difficult. I've already gotten the fourth clue, and I still haven't met the necessary conditions. That's asking too much. It's obviously a simulator, so why does it have to be so realistic?"

[Does the host need to continue the simulation? ]

"No, that's all for today, let's go to bed early."

Lu Li was very satisfied with the ending. He could only say that he hoped he didn't understand the beauty of the Great Teacher. An ending that makes everyone smile is not easy to achieve. Sacrifices are normal, right?

But this also made Lu Li lose interest, so he decided to go to bed early.

......

[Everything is difficult at the beginning, but this time, with your partner's help, your band will get off to a much faster start. You also no longer need to pretend in front of other band members, and your mentality has also relaxed a lot.]

You are very grateful to the other person for helping you when you need help the most. His existence is special to you.

[Although you rarely see each other, you regard him as your only friend who you can talk to. You will share with him some interesting things that happened in the band, and also tell him about your own situation.]

【As time goes by, your band gradually becomes famous.】

As the band gradually gained fame, you chose to devote more time to it, believing that this was the only way to further accelerate the band's progress.

You started to get busy, and the conversations between you and him became less and less. In the summer of that year, your relationship, which had been improving, became somewhat distant.

[But you think all this is temporary. After your band becomes popular and everything is over, you will still have many summers to yourself.]

Just as you expected, in just over a year, your band became a huge hit. Ave Mujica's name resounded throughout Tokyo, and you successfully debuted as a professional band. At the end of the winter, the band settled its accounts, and after deducting all expenses, you finally received a huge dividend.

[After receiving your dividend, you eagerly open your phone and find the number you haven't contacted in two months. You excitedly call the number, but the number you receive is unavailable...]

[The other person has left your world again. ]

[But this time is different. You have a special feeling for him, and this feeling drives you to find him.]

So you start investigating.

If you had relied on yourself, you wouldn't have been able to find any useful information. But thankfully, you're now somewhat famous, and after commissioning a Tokyo detective, you finally found out what happened.

[It turns out that the money the other party provided you was his hard-earned money. In order to achieve your goal, he silently supported you with everything he could.]

[And after discovering that he has a health problem, he will leave you immediately, because only in this way can he not drag you down. ]

You follow the address the private detective gave you and arrive at a somewhat shabby little cottage. It's identical to the one you once lived in. Looking at it, your eyes gradually become moist. You ask the new tenant where the previous tenants have gone, but they don't know exactly where they are. They only know that the siblings who originally lived there have returned home.

[So, in the following days, you start looking for the other person. Although the hope is slim, as long as the person is still alive, you will definitely find him.]

[One year, two years, three years...]

[Finally one day, you found the other person's whereabouts. It turned out that he went to a small place called Yanshou. ]

[Now that you have become a top star, you hurried to Yanshou. However, the person you met in Yanshou was not the one you were looking for, but a girl as quiet as a flower. This girl told you that her name was Lian and that she was the sister of the person you were looking for.]

You anxiously ask Lian where he went.

【Lian didn't say anything, she just smiled at you.】

"Ms. Toyokawa Shoko, I can take you to see my brother, but I have a request. I hope you can give me a set of your performance clothes, preferably the ones you wore during your debut."

You don't understand why that person's sister would make such a strange request of you, but a set of performance clothes is nothing to you, so you ask someone to send you a set of performance clothes you wore three years ago, which is a black Gothic style long dress.

【"thank you."】

Lian took the costume you handed her and walked into the house. About ten minutes later, Lian came out of the house. You were surprised to find that Lian was wearing the costume you gave her and a blue wig. She looked almost the same as you.

[“Miss Lian, what are you doing?”]

"Nothing, just some preparations." Lian replied.

[Lian kept her promise and brought you to the edge of a cliff.]

"Brother is right here." Lian pointed at the bottomless cliff and smiled at you.
