My portable gaming girlfriend

【Fifth day】

However……

Morning.

In the cherry blossom rain all over the sky, Sakura and I walked leisurely on the cherry blossom path——

"I didn't expect Gao Cheng to cook curry for the first time so delicious,"

"There's nothing like curry for me."

Irritated... quite irritable, I almost endured a strong sense of vomiting before saying this without changing my face.

This dialogue has been repeated 29 times.

27 of them were all due to the failure of the harem ending and having to reload the file for the fifth day.

And in order to achieve the harem ending, I have encountered a full 41 gameovers!

The longest one was only carried out until Thursday of the second week.

I also finally realized deeply what Can Yue meant when she said 'the ending of the harem is impossible'.

It seems like the whole world is blocking me, whether it's Sakura's father, Mizuhara Mina's mother or the seniors of the game club...

Not reconciled. That guy Can Yue will definitely ask me how I am going, if I tell him that I have failed 41 times on the road to the harem and gave up the game... Isn't it equivalent to slapping myself in the face?

So, just clear the game.

"So...Gao Cheng, are you listening?"

"Huh? I'm listening."

Sakura is already dissatisfied with my distraction.

"It's about the movie recommended by Kako, right?"

How could I not have listened to it, I have listened to it 27 times.

"Student Gaocheng... I haven't said that yet."

"Eh? Is that so? That's what Tamagawa-san said before..."

Accidentally made a mistake again... Does this kind of game have a plot review? If you keep reloading the file, it is very common to confuse what has been said with what has not been said.

"I feel that today's Gaocheng classmate has been absent-minded. Did he suffer from insomnia and didn't sleep well last night?"

She looked at me worriedly.

And again I feel guilty. Not only did Sakura not blame me for being distracted, but she cared so much about me...Compared to me, who wanted to play the ending of the harem, I really suck!

No, opening a harem at any time is a bad idea, and single-mindedness is king!

"I've decided to give up the harem ending!"

Just HAPPYENDING with you alone!

Moreover, HAPPY ENDING is not enough at all, what needs to be achieved is the legendary hidden ending!

"Finally, the ending of the harem? What is that?"

Sakura was confused by my words...

"It's nothing, don't pay attention to my self-talk..."

I calm down a little. After so many weeks, I already understand that most of the time, saying this sentence can stop the AI ​​from pursuing my fault.

This is probably the logic set by the AI, right? Otherwise, if the AI ​​and the player are more realistic, it will be endless.

After saying this sentence, Sakura stopped the previous topic as expected, showing a clear look.

"That's right. Gao Cheng must pay attention to rest and don't stay up late."

We came to the class and took out the math books to prepare for class.

Class time is of course skipped.

I took Mizuhara Mina to the game club at noon, and told Narumi Lily that I used the classroom alone after school.

I remember the strategy Cangzuki told me - if you want to play through the hidden ending, you must play through the plots of the two without confessing to Mizuhara Mina and Narumi Lily, and then confess to Sakura in the plot of Sakura.

Not confessing and clearing the other party's plot, that is to say, the friendship line... No, no matter how you look at it, it feels like a scumbag.

The ending of the harem, goodbye... Continuing to try is just a challenge to the system authority, and there is no chance of winning at all.

But it won't be sad if we finally reach a HAPPY ENDING with the considerate Sakura, I comfort myself.

I lie in bed.

I've been curious about Mizuhara Mina from the very beginning, so let's attack her first.

Because of 41 attempts, I already know the general strategy of them. Then just proceed step by step.

If you take the Mizuhara line, you will be free on weekends...just skip it.

I closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, it was——

【Eighth day】

The eighth day, which is the Monday of the second week.

I walked to school early in the morning. My home in the game is only 10 minutes away from the school. If you take the cherry blossom trail, it will take a little longer, but not too much.

I met Yu Chuan, walked through the long cherry blossom path, and entered the classroom together.

Speaking of which, today's first class is English class... Forget it, I don't care what class it is, I'm just a player, and I don't need to take any exams... Putting out the English book, I opened [Quick Jump] Pass】.

It was noon all of a sudden.

"Student Gao Cheng, today's bento."

Mina Mizuhara handed me the bento. She seemed a little down.

Knowing the reason, I asked her directly——

"Mizuhara-san, do you have a concert this Friday?"

"Does Gao Cheng know my identity?"

She seems to have some resistance to her own identity...

"Of course, after all, Mizuhara-san is a well-known idol."

"It's a bit embarrassing for Gao Cheng to find out about that kind of thing..."

In fact, having experienced the plot here dozens of times, I know her situation well.

There have been 15 times to end the game on the Thursday of the second week - because that is the limit day of the harem project.

As long as you want to open the harem, you can't go beyond Thursday, I have already understood this point.

"I heard my classmates mention it."

Sakata Haruji did mention this matter and did not lie to her.

"So this is ah……"

She lowered her head again, staring at the garden not far away.

The flower garden is surrounded by white stones, decorated with lilies and roses like a palace garden, but compared to such a garden, I still prefer the white wild flowers blooming on the grass... and it is quite secluded here, according to my 46 weeks of experience Look, there have never been any passers-by here—is it really a place specially prepared by game producers for players to have a romantic relationship?

"Is Mizuhara-san worried about the concert?"

I go straight to the point.

"...does it look like you're worried?"

"A little bit."

"It's okay to talk to Takashi-san... In fact, there are a lot of things to prepare for the concert, and after that... Anyway, I won't be able to make bento for Takashi-san anymore."

She really feels sorry for this kind of thing... I can't just ignore something she likes so much.

"Then what to do, I'm going to starve to death... Well, I have an idea."

"Eh? What idea?"

She looked at me curiously.

"Isn't it good if I make a bento?"

I am not bragging when I say this, I am no longer the one who only knew how to make instant noodles. After so many exercises, my bento level has improved a lot, at least I have become proficient in making curry.

"Then...then how can I bother Gao Cheng..."

Her eyes wandered, she was obviously tempted but she was too shy to agree... She really wanted me to help her decide.

"It doesn't matter, Mizuhara-san is obviously busy with important things, but I have been eating bento leisurely, I am really sorry... So, it is also appropriate to make a bento for Mizuhara-san."

Moreover, if you don't take the initiative to take on the responsibility of making bento, isn't there no reason to meet?

In order to continue the strategy, it is necessary to create a reason to meet, and making bento is the best choice at this time, otherwise I can only face the gameover of the Suwon line.

"... Thank you, Gao Cheng, for your hard work!"

She hesitated for a long time, as if she was trying her best to say this sentence... This kind of awkward and shy girl really doesn't know how to be an idol.

"That's it. Tomorrow's bento is curry bento. What do you think of Mizuhara-san?"

In fact, all the food I cook revolves around rice...like curry rice, fried rice, baked rice...

And all of them are learned from Sakura in the game.

"Curry bento, sounds good too."

She is obviously a rich and well-dressed young lady, but she wants to eat my half-baked curry rice...

"Shall we go to the game club together today?"

She nodded.

When I came to the game room, the door was still ajar. Narumi Lily still doesn't seem to be assigned a key. In fact, until Thursday of the second week, the game room can be entered at will, which can be regarded as a convenience for players.

"Mizuhara-san, pick a game you're interested in."

"Eh? Is this okay? Just move things here..."

She looked at the game boards piled up in the cabinet in embarrassment...

"No problem, I've already mentioned it to the president, and she said... discs and game consoles are free to use."

Every time I talk about the old word CD-ROM, it feels very strange.

"Then I'm welcome."

Probably because of her tutoring, sometimes she is too polite, even with her friends. It's not that politeness is bad, but she doesn't feel the casualness of a girl, but is always reserved.

In short, the time spent with her needs to help her realize this problem.

"how about this?"

She picked up "Looking at the Starry Sky".

I still want to complain, there are so many works why did you choose this one, no, maybe the games in this game are only the few games I have played, those lazy programmers!

"Girls being betrayed, being redeemed, etc. It seems very interesting... I like the word redemption."

You're the complete opposite of Narukai, who absolutely hates the word redemption.

But as far as I am concerned, I also feel that the word redemption is a bit secondary here. It's not that she committed any unforgivable sin, and the heroine in the plot is completely self-inflicted.

"I remind you in advance that the plot of this work is very confusing...Forget it, let me talk to myself."

It's better not to interfere in her life. Anyway, I haven't played through this work so far, because every time I read half of it, I want to sleep.

Obviously being in the virtual space is equivalent to being in a semi-sleep state, but there are still games that make me sleepy. One can imagine how boring it is.

She put the CD into the game console.

The familiar opening music of the game sounded, and my head hurts - I have listened to the opening music hundreds of times for this.

I was bored and started reading magazines. Fortunately, the game not only made the game, but also prepared a magazine about the game, and the content was quite interesting. It’s just like real magazines, full of advertisements, I seriously doubt that these are soft advertisements.

"How can this man betray the truth! It's too hateful!"

Over there, Mina Mizuhara's angry voice came.

It became like this again...

She is usually a timid girl who wears glasses, her face is blocked by too long bangs, and she has no confidence in her speech. However, at some point she will suddenly become a different person...

It's not as exaggerated as Rampage, but it's more emotional and the voice is much louder.

At first I suspected that she had multiple personalities, but the continuity of her memory made me deny this inference. As far as I have seen related works, the different personalities of multiple personalities should have no memory of each other.

All in all, she is simply exposing her original personality... But I think her original personality is more suitable to be an idol.

By the way, truth is the heroine of this "Looking at the Stars".

"Hexi is so pitiful... woo woo woo..."

I agree with this point, after all, this childhood sweetheart gave both her sincerity and money for the heroine, and in the end she was cuckolded...

As for Mizuhara's angry and tearful appearance when she was emotional, I have long seen it...

"So you chose the childhood sweetheart line..."

As usual, she chose the plot.

I don't want to think about the plot I chose, the plot development after that is just hell.

"I want to treat He Xi well, make up for his loss, and take revenge on that scumbag!"

It's a pity that the plots of text love games are all edited, and the heroine is not capable of revenge on the scumbag...

"Hey, it's almost time for class, it's time to go."

I called out to Mizuhara-san who was immersed in the game.

"Don't worry, wait a little longer."

"..."

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have thought that a lady like her and an idol would be addicted to games...Compared to Shen Qing, who is also a lady...Forget it, let's not talk about it.

"1:21, it's too late if I don't leave..."

For this situation, there is nothing to do but to persuade.

"……All right."

She reluctantly agreed, then archived, turned off the phone, and put down the handle.

"Can I still come here tomorrow?"

"sure."

For me, if I don't come here, there is no other place to go...

However, in the discussion forums on the Internet, some people took her to play tennis or go to the multimedia classroom to watch movies, and some players even said that they took her to the chemistry laboratory... I can only bow down.

"Just put the disc in there."

Because I didn't accept the president's entrustment last Friday, I don't have to participate in club activities after school this week.

"See you tomorrow, Gao Cheng."

After the game, she returned to her usual appearance.

"See you tomorrow."

I wave.

【Ninth day】

I took out the lunch box containing the curry that took 2 hours to cook yesterday, and handed it to Mina Mizuhara.

"Does Gao Cheng know that I like to eat curry?"

She happily took the lunch box.

"Usually my mother wouldn't let me eat curry, saying that it tasted very strong and would stick to my mouth, so it's not suitable for ladies..."

"Ah, no, I happened to make curry, as long as you like it."

In fact I can only make curry.

After chewing slowly and eating a whole box of curry, she began to look up at the white clouds floating slowly under the blue sky in a daze. Suwon's mother has strict discipline, I think this is one of the reasons for her reserved personality. But after being with me for a few days, I feel that her heart has opened up to me more and more, at least she will tell me some of her feelings.

...If only there were girls in reality who could tell me about themselves so easily.

For example, Shen Qing... I would think of that inexplicable sentence from time to time, but I didn't dare to ask her to confirm it. It's only when you're facing a girl that you shrink back like this, let alone a beautiful girl. Moreover, the original lesson told me that the possibility of being self-indulgent is very high.

Giving someone the first time is enough.

"If you like something, just say it. When I was young, my parents often wouldn't let me do this or that, and I wouldn't listen to it. Later, they stopped caring about me..."

Then, I became a gamer...

"No, my mother didn't say it often... If I insisted on eating curry instead of the food she gave, she would really not let me eat."

What a horrible mother.

"Have you discussed it with your mother?"

"...I dare not say."

She looks down.

I sighed, and I knew it was like this, the eldest lady of the bird in the cage...

"Don't think too much, let's play games and relax."

It's not the time to persuade her to resist yet, let her relax first.
