My love simulation with them

[But despite this, when facing you, she still wears a smiling mask on her face and says evasive words such as 'There is no problem at all, it is your illusion'. 】

[Your efforts seem to be of no use. 】

[Aware of this, you feel disappointed and decide to find a suitable time to get away from the girl. 】

"Good guy."

Looking at his choice in the simulation, Nanxiang Shi clicked his tongue in reality.

In the past several simulations, either Goto Kazuri fell into inferiority complex, or Nishiki Chishu had a heart problem - these were various force majeure factors and events that occurred on the simulation subjects, which made the simulation unable to continue.

But it has never been like this simulation. In the simulation, I chose to give up.

But it's not without reason.

No matter how many men try to pursue each other sincerely but still can't open the door to the other person's heart, he probably won't be able to persevere, right?

There is no point in pursuing a single relationship.

Especially Akane Shinjo, a bad woman who obviously just wants to use herself to improve her writing skills.

This makes even less sense.

Even in reality, when facing this kind of person, he would definitely make the choice to leave in the end.

Adhering to the idea that this simulation has failed anyway, it is better to continue to look below.

Nanxiang Shi put all his thoughts into the simulation again.

[You gradually turn your eyes away from Shinjo Akane. 】

[Yamada Ryo, who finished the band, seems to have noticed your recent changes in mood. From time to time, she will ask you to go out for dinner to relax, and you will treat each other to dinner. 】

[But you also don’t understand, because Ryo Yamada has always been a free-spirited person who likes to act alone and be alone. Why does he invite you to go out with him so often? 】

[Facing your tentative question, Yamada Ryo just tilted his head and blinked his eyes elegantly and lazily, saying that he felt something was wrong with your recent state. 】

[You did not deny this, and with her active company, you did feel a lot better. 】

[She spends more time with you. 】

"..." Nanxiang Shi.

Ms. Yamada, you...

Nan Xiangshi rubbed his eyebrows, and now he didn't know what to say.

Ms. Yamada, you are really...

He shook his head and continued to look down.

[You have put aside all things involving Akane Shinjo and returned to your normal life. 】

[It was at this time that a black-haired girl appeared. 】

[She comes to you and wants to talk to you. 】

[You know the other person, the other person’s name is Rikka Takarata, and he seems to be a member of Akane Shinjo’s vast group of ‘friends’. If that person also has friends——]

Ocha High School is especially quiet after school.

In addition to hearing the sports team's "Come on, come on!" ’ ‘Number one in the country next year! ’ There was no other sound.

Nanxiang Shi turned his eyes away from the sports team, which was full of youth and passion, and turned to look at Rikka Takarata.

This is another beautiful girl.

Her shoulder-length black hair was scattered like fine black satin, and her clear sapphire eyes looked particularly clean.

But none of this has anything to do with him.

Compared to these, what he felt more strange was why Rikka Takarata in front of him came to look for him.

Because the two of them had met once before because of Akane Shinjo.

There is no other point of intersection.

Thinking of Akane Shinjo, Nanxiang's eyebrows twitched and he turned his head: "What's the matter? Takarata-san."

The words were calm and slightly unfamiliar.

"Nanxiang-san, why don't you continue?"

Under the setting sun, Rikka Takarata's voice was somewhat calm, but the content of her words was a bit radical.

"Continue? Continue with what?"

"Continue your romance with Shinjo-san! Aren't you and her boyfriend and girlfriend?"

Baoduo Rikka asked with her face half raised, but in Nanxiang Shi's ears, this rhetorical question had some unspeakable feelings.

"In the eyes of Baoduo-san, perhaps this is indeed the case."

Nanxiang Shi took a deep look at Baoda Rikka, and then shook his head:

"It's not that I don't want to continue. Takarata-san can actually notice it. Shinjou-san is actually not interested in anyone, and the same is true for me."

"She has never shown her true feelings to anyone, including you and me."

Yes.

Akane Shinjo has never shown her true feelings to him.

All she was interested in was his writing skills, other than that, everything was empty.

Rikka Takarata fell silent.

She probably also knew that what Nanxiang Shi said was true.

"The external sunshine and positivity are just things that float on the surface of Shinjou-san. There are deeper things... I once wanted to understand and worked hard for it, but Shinjou-san never gave me a chance."

Nan Xiangshi held up his face and sighed lightly.

That's right.

He once decided to work hard for Shinjou Akane.

A lot has been paid for this.

He used various methods to make her happy and tried to gain her trust, but all of them had no effect.

Nan Xiangshi's voice paused, and then continued: "Otherwise, why didn't her real girlfriend take the initiative to contact me, but it was you, my friend, who asked me to continue my relationship with her? "

Of course - if wishful thinking can be considered love.

After saying this, Nanxiang Shi picked up the student shoulder bag beside the table and planned to leave.

At this moment, Takarata Rikka's voice came from behind:

"Nanxiang-san."

"Um?"

"Do you really feel that... you haven't touched Shinjo-san's heart... even once?"

What does this mean?

Nanxiang turned around subconsciously.

Then he saw Rikka Takarata's expression standing in the classroom under the sunset.

She looked very sad under the sunset.

And that was the last time Ocha saw her in Nanxiang when she was in high school.

[After graduating from Ocha High School, you successfully entered Tokyo University and gradually came together with Yamada Ryo. 】

[When I met Rikka Takarata again, she brought the news of Akane Shinjo's death. 】

Chapter 123. She is always pretending (4000 words!)

Takarata Rikka...?

Looking at this name, Nanxiang Shi was slightly stunned in reality.

Because the other party is also one of the heroines in "SSSS.GRIDMAN".

It seems that the relationship with Akane Shinjo is still very good.

As for other detailed settings, Nanxiang Shi was a little unclear.

He continued to look down.

[When I met Rikka Takarata again, her shoulder-length black hair had grown longer. 】

[Yamada Ryo noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere, so he sat on the other side early and put on headphones, drinking coffee, but from time to time the expressionless face he raised would look in your direction. 】

[You were more surprised by the sudden arrival of Rikka Takarata, but when you heard the news that Akane Shinjo had passed away, your surprise turned into astonishment. 】

[Because you never thought that the girl who had fallen into the disguise from beginning to end would leave so early. 】

[You comfort Rikka Takarata, whose eyes are red, and invite her to sit down. 】

[Under your safe treatment, Baoda Rikka regained her previous lazy and calm look. Under her narration, you gradually understood the whole story. 】

During the simulation, the scene memory begins to flash back.

It was probably because the warm air in the cafe was soothing and made Rikka Takarata, who had just attended the funeral, relax.

While looking at Nango in front of her, she began to whisper about what happened between her and Akane Shinjo after graduating from Ocha High School.

It turns out that Rikka Takarata and Akane Shinjo were neighbors a long time ago.

At that time, she got acquainted with Akane Shinjo, often went to school together, and became friends with each other.

It's different from the 'friend' relationship with single quotes that Akane Shinjo has formed.

Rikka Takarata is probably the only person Akane Shinjo is willing to open her heart to.

Nanxiang Shi just listened and did not speak.

At this time, compared to a chattering talker, it is better to be a taciturn listener who can take care of Rikka Takarata's emotions, right?

After explaining the past relationship with Akane Shinjo clearly, the matter of Ocha High School was naturally mentioned.

"I think you know that when you came to Nanxiang, Akane would always ask you some questions about writing when she was a student."

Rikka Takarata looked at the tea placed on the table, as if she wanted to see Akane Shinjo's shadow in it.

But she failed without a doubt, so she raised her head and spoke.

"...I have had such an experience."

Nanxiang nodded in recognition when his name was called.

The daily writing consultation session is a rare time for Akane Shinjo to reveal part of her true heart.

Her persistence in writing surprised even Nanxiang Shi.

After all, Akane Shinjo has always been shown to be indifferent to everything.

If you don't care, you won't expect it.

But only in terms of writing, she has never relaxed or ignored it.

"The reason why I care so much about writing is because of the dream that Akane has been pursuing."

When Takarata Rikka looked up at Nanxiang, she sighed softly: "Nanxiang should also know that Akane has an extraordinary love for tokusatsu dramas, right?"

"This is quite clear."

Nanxiang nodded.

Unlike ordinary girls, Akane Shinjo's love for tokusatsu dramas is indeed beyond imagination.

It was so detailed that Akane Shinjo knew exactly which monster appeared in which episode in the "Ultraman" series.

Thinking of this, Nanxiang turned his head:

"Sorry, Ryo."

"Um?"

Yamada Ryo took off his headphones and blinked his amber eyes strangely and looked over.

"It's nothing, I'm just talking to myself."
