Nanxiang Shi continued to pretend to be curious.

Under his guidance, Misa Ikeda had no intention of sparing the information and answered with a smile:

"It seems that the daughter of the Futaba family was unwilling to go to school for a while due to physical reasons. This matter was quite a big deal at the time."

Don’t want to go to school because of physical reasons?

"Is it because you are sick?"

Nanxiang Shi pretended to be surprised.

"Haha, I only tell you this, Shijun."

Misa Ikeda gently held Nanxiang Shi's hand.

The young man's unique energetic limbs and slender fingers made her unable to help but rub them gently with her fingers.

But she never dared to be too explicit in her actions.

He was afraid that a particularly excessive move would scare away a young man like Nanxiang Shi who was not familiar with the world.

She smiled and continued:

"It seems that because the physical development of Futaba's daughter is too advanced, the students in junior high school looked at her strangely. During that time, Futaba's daughter seemed to have a mental problem."

"So that's what happened..."

Nan Xiangshi nodded thoughtfully.

He had heard of it.

Students who were ignorant when they were young would always laugh at their classmates who were particularly developed and regarded them as aliens.

For example, he is very tall, or he stutters when speaking... and other reasons.

If it is Futaba Rio.

Then it must be... she has low self-esteem about her body that is not in compliance with her development standards.

"How pitiful."

Nanxiang's voice was full of sympathy, and his hand quietly pulled away from Misa Ikeda's hand.

"Oh, good development is obviously a good thing, but no one expected that it would end up like that."

Some regretting that her actions were too hasty, Misa Ikeda complained in her heart and answered with a smile.

"That's true, but...living alone must be very hard."

Looking at the Futaba family's mansion, Nanxiang couldn't help but sigh.

A mansion where one person lives.

This sounds very good.

But in fact, when you actually live in it, you will feel particularly lonely.

I usually don't hear any movement at home.

The only sound he makes is the echo of his own words.

That overly spacious area can only increase loneliness in the heart.

"Isn't it the same, Toki-kun? It must be very hard for a person to come to Tokyo and work hard."

Misa Ikeda approached Nango with a smile: "Even if you work for a lifetime, you may not be able to buy a luxury house like this in Tokyo."

As she approached, she spoke:

"I heard Shi-kun came to Tokyo alone, right? You seem to be living in a low-rent house? Is there anything you want? Stay with my sister for a while today, and she can give it to you."

[The hint in Mrs. Ikeda’s words is already very obvious. 】

【your choice--】

[1. I have the legacy of King Wei! Happy to agree! 】

[2. Refuse with a smile, Nanxiang Succubus is definitely not that kind of person! 】

[3. Eat and wipe everything clean and take advantage before leaving. 】

【4. Simulate in person. 】

The option pops up directly.

Nanxiang Shi didn't have anything to analyze this time, so he directly chose the second option.

Although from his own perspective, it would be quite interesting to choose an option.

But now is not the time to do that kind of thing.

After selecting the three options.

The simulation continues.

[But at this time, you have figured out why Futaba Rio hates herself so much and why she has such low self-esteem. 】

[Faced with Mrs. Ikeda’s temptation, you just smiled to express your rejection, and then turned and left in her eyes full of reluctance and regret. 】

[After getting away from Mrs. Ikeda, you have figured out Futaba Rio’s ‘Heart Knot’ and want to return to your daily life. 】

[You packed everything up perfectly and pushed out of the science laboratory as usual. 】

【Continuing daily communication with Futaba Rio. 】

[She also, as always, makes you a cup of coffee when you are cold. 】

[At this time, she who doesn’t like to talk will always sit behind the table with a coffee cup in hand, quietly listening to you talk about recent events. On her face that is as quiet as an orchid, Smile. 】

[Everything seems to be developing for the better. 】

"broken."

I saw unexpected analog words.

Nanxiang Shi realized that something was wrong in an instant.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that that ‘seem’ was particularly dazzling in his eyes.

But why?

Why did something go wrong again?

Nan Xiang didn't quite understand.

Isn't he just trying to manage the relationship between the neighbor's wife?

Why suddenly [everything seems to be developing in a good direction]?

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Nanxiang Shi continued to look down.

[You who thought you had figured out Futaba Rio's situation did not notice the loss and uneasiness in her eyes as she quietly listened to all your worries. 】

[And one day, loss and uneasiness accumulated together. 】

[As usual, you opened the door to the science preparation room and were surprised to find it. 】

[Futaba Rio, who always looks strong and expressionless, is currently lying on the table in the science preparation room, sobbing softly. 】

[You don’t understand the reason, so you can only step forward and comfort her who is as fragile as glass, while quietly listening to her self-loathing about herself. 】

"This is not your problem Nanxiang."

She shed tears and replied in a low voice: "But I am just such a...troublesome, very twisted and twisted woman."

[Your previous guess was correct. 】

[Futaba Rio doesn’t like Kunimi Yuma. 】

[But she is extremely lonely and uneasy inside, and she just needs Yuma Kunimi as a friend. 】

[But in the second semester of the first year of high school, Yuma Kunimi found his girlfriend Saki Kamisato. 】

[She instantly felt that she was far away from her friend Kunimi Yuma. 】

[And during this semester, her second friend Sakuta Azusagawa became obsessed with a popular senior in the third grade. 】

[The two people who could have communicated with her were now drifting away from her. 】

[You are her third friend, and the friend with whom she has the most talk so far. 】

[She devoted all her friendly feelings to you. 】

[But recently you have been too obsessed with managing your relationship with Mrs. Ikeda, and you have completely ignored her kindness during this period of time. 】

[The friends you just made will eventually be lost. 】

[This feeling of about to lose something important made Futaba Rio feel uneasy and lonely at this moment. 】

[If she had not seen the light, she could have endured the darkness. 】

[Just like when she was in junior high school, she was alone at home, was treated as an alien in school, and never interacted with other people... If it hadn't been for Azusagawa Sakuta, Kunimi Yuma and now Nan As a friend in hometown. 】

[She should have been able to endure the loneliness, she just saw the sunshine. 】

[You are the last ray of sunshine she wants to catch. 】

[And she failed. 】

[I may lose you, lose your attention, lose the opportunity to talk to you...]

[Just thinking about these things, her tears couldn't stop falling.]

"I hate myself."

She sobbed softly.

"Obviously Kunimi and Azusagawa have girlfriends, which is a good thing, but I am very afraid that they will stop paying attention to me from now on."

"Nanxiang... also... I know clearly that you are busy with your own affairs recently, but you are still very willful. I hope you can look at me more."

She raised her eyes, confusion and helplessness written on her face.

But all she could do was gently grab Nan Xiangshi's sleeve.

Just like she was before when she was maliciously slandered by others.

The force was very weak.

It was so weak that as long as Nanxiang Shi raised his hand and struggled lightly, he could break free.

but--

Nanxiang reached out and grabbed her palm.

Chapter 197. You must be responsible for me! (4000 words!)

Outside of simulation, in real life.

"I really didn't expect it to be like this."

Feel the changes in the Sims life.

Nanxiang sighed in reality.

Originally, he thought he had figured out the source of Futaba Rio's awkward personality.

I didn't expect that there would be such a reason after this.

Longing for friendship, but feeling uneasy about the consequences of a friend's relationship with his girlfriend, fearing that he will be abandoned by his friend - this is undoubtedly an extremely selfish idea.

She hates herself not only because of her body, but also because of her own selfish thoughts.

Likewise, there is her pathological obsession with wanting to be needed.

So...

"What will happen next?"

Looking at himself holding Futaba Rio's hand in the simulation, Nangoji murmured to himself.

[Your guess is indeed correct. 】

[Futaba Rio has never liked anyone, she just has an almost pathological obsession with being needed. 】

[Self-loathing, self-hatred, being withdrawn but longing for friends...these are the awkward elements that make up Futaba Rio. 】
