Tokyo: Simulation Begins with the Big Sister Next Door

"Maple Sauce, why aren't you flushing the toilet?!"

"Ah, I forgot..." Fuyutsuki Kaede stared at the water jug ​​in her hand, lost in thought again. She only came back to her senses when she heard Yukimura Chizuru's words and replied casually.

The two are best friends, the kind who would hold hands to go to the restroom, so they naturally wouldn't care about such a small thing.

Wow!

The sound of flushing water came from the bathroom, and Dongyue Feng, clutching the water jug ​​in her hand, fell into a new round of deep thought.

Where did they go in the middle of the night?

Xiao Liang's younger brother's bedroom wasn't big either. She had searched the whole place, even checking the trash cans in her haste, but there wasn't a trace of him.

Moreover, after repeated checks, she discovered that the kettle had indeed been disturbed and the water level was lower, so Xiao Liang must have drunk aphrodisiac...

Could it be that Xiao Liang ran away after taking the medicine?

Where could he possibly run to?

No, or rather, where will it go?

To ensure success on the first try, Dongyue Feng bought the highest-grade aphrodisiac, the one with the strongest effects.

At this moment, she looked out the window and carefully imagined the scene of An Zeliang wandering the streets after the aphrodisiac took effect...

Oh no... this is really going to be a disaster!

If no antidote can be found, will little Liang's brother... die?

Dongyue Feng's brows furrowed immediately, her eyes filled with worry for An Zeliang's health. A few seconds later, she bit her lip, got up, and went outside the bathroom.

Wow…

Yukimura Chizuru seems to have drunk a lot of water before going to bed, and is currently in the toilet.

To tell... or not to tell?

After hesitating for a few seconds, Dongyue Feng's concern for An Zeliang ultimately prevailed, and she took a deep breath and opened her lips.

"Chizuru... there's something I need to tell you..."

"Hmm?" A puzzled nasal sound came from inside the bathroom.

"... "

A few minutes later, Yukimura Chizuru sat on the sofa, looking at the water pitcher in Fuyutsuki Kaede's hand, and her lips twitched.

"What?! You put poison in the kettle?!"

Yukimura Chizuru frowned.

When she went to the bathroom just now, she was thinking of going out to get a drink of water to rehydrate... Thank goodness she didn't! Otherwise, if Xiao Liang and she had both been drugged with aphrodisiacs, things would have been truly disastrous...

At this moment, Dongyue Feng coughed lightly and continued somewhat guiltily.

"Chizuru-chan, the medicine in the kettle isn't the main point... The main point is that Xiao Liang drank the water from the kettle, and I just checked, the hot milk was all gone too... which means..."

"Xiao Liang drank the whole dose of medicine, and then... then he disappeared from the room!"

"What???"

Yukimura Chizuru suddenly stood up.

Then she turned around, quickly walked to An Zeliang's bedroom door, pushed the door open, and rushed to the bedside without even turning on the light, overturning the cup with a clatter.

Just like Fuyutsuki Kaede said, there was no one inside!

Xiao Liang... has disappeared!

Yukimura Chizuru stared at the empty bed, turned around, turned on the light, and looked around. The doubt in her eyes intensified.

Suddenly, she realized something and looked at Fuyutsuki Kaede, who had followed her into the room.

"Wait! Maple-chan, you just said... Xiao Liang drank a whole dose of medicine before he disappeared???"

Chapter 167, Page 165: Who to Choose? This is a True Battleground

Fuyuki Kaede nodded a little nervously.

She never expected this to happen.

I thought my younger brother would come looking for me after his face turned blue, but he just disappeared...

Yukimura Chizuru searched the room but did not find Anze Ryo, so she frowned deeply.

"Maple Sauce, how could you give Xiao Liang so many drugs?"

"Xiao Liang is just a high school student. How can his body withstand such a strong dose of medicine?"

"Even if Xiao Liang can withstand it, his stamina has to keep up. If he overdoes it, his body will definitely suffer irreparable damage!"

Upon hearing this, Dongyue Feng pursed her lips, feeling even more guilty. Her hand rested on the door frame of An Zeliang's bedroom, unconsciously stroking it, clearly showing her anxiety.

"I... I thought that Xiao Liang might not drink milk, so I put the medicine in the water... but I didn't expect him to drink both!"

After explaining, Fuyutsuki Kaede felt even more guilty.

Chizuru Yukimura frowned, interrupting Fuyutsuki Kaede's guilt: "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go find Ryo first."

"Maple Sauce, after we go out, you and I will each go in one direction and search along the street. If we find it, call us to let us know."

As Yukimura Chizuru spoke, she tightened the laces of her sneakers.

"Chizuru, where do you think Ryo will go?"

“Xiao Liang is usually very well-behaved. Every time I ask him, he says he has to study hard. Even during holidays, he doesn’t go out to play much. I think… even if he loses his mind, he probably won’t go too far.”

"In short, keep searching and contacting people simultaneously, don't waste time."

"Uh-huh!!"

"Click——"

The two hurriedly pushed open the apartment door, and just as they were about to leave, they were startled by the person at the door.

Outside the door, An Zeliang stood with his hand raised, about to knock.

"Xiao Liang? You, you're alright?" Yukimura Chizuru was stunned for a moment, her eyes quickly scanning An Ze Liang's body, and she even reached out to touch An Ze Liang's face.

As Maple Sauce once said, Xiao Liang had eaten at least half a bag of aphrodisiacs.

But at this moment, Xiao Liang's face was not flushed at all, and his body temperature was normal. He looked perfectly normal... If you had to say something, he was just a little too energetic.

Her eyes were bright and she looked radiant, as if she had taken a stimulant instead of medicine... except that her hair was a little messy and there were some red marks on her neck.

"Little Liang, are you...are you alright?"

After observing carefully for a while, Dongyue Feng hesitated before speaking.

"Nothing wrong? Sister Fuyutsuki, what could possibly happen to a perfectly healthy high school student like me?" An Zeliang looked at Fuyutsuki Kaede and replied with a smile.

“Uh…” Dongyue Feng didn’t know how to respond to this. Xiao Liang didn’t seem to have taken any medicine.

Could the medicine be fake?

Fuyuki Kaede couldn't help but have doubts.

"Xiao Liang, why is your face... and your neck all red?"

At this moment, Yukimura Chizuru reached out and touched Anze Ryo's neck with a puzzled look, and found that there seemed to be more than one red mark there, and each mark was not very large.

"Oh, this is from being outside for too long and getting bitten by mosquitoes. Chizuru-nee, if you don't let me in soon, the mosquitoes will bite me again."

. "

An Zeliang scratched his neck and said with a smile.

"Oh, then come in first. I'll light a mosquito coil at the door to keep mosquitoes away in a bit."

Chizuru Yukimura stepped aside and looked thoughtfully at the marks on Ryo Anzawa's neck.

Upon entering the living room, Yukimura Chizuru was about to pour her younger brother a glass of water when she suddenly paused, glancing at Fuyutsuki Kaede.

"Cough cough..." Fuyuki Kaede couldn't help but cough.

"Sister Dongyue, is your throat sore? Would you like to drink some water to soothe it?" An Zeliang asked with concern.

"Uh... Drinking too much cold water is bad for your stomach. I'll drink something hot later. Xiao Liang, you shouldn't drink cold water either... I'll go boil some water for you!" Dong Yuefeng grabbed the kettle and quickly went to the kitchen to empty and wash it.

Gululu...

The hot water in the kitchen is boiling.

After looking at An Zeliang for a while, Dongyue Feng couldn't help but ask.

"Xiao Liang, did you drink the hot milk your sister brought you?"

"I didn't drink it," An Zeliang replied casually, leaning back on the sofa and scrolling through his phone.

"I put the milk in a plastic carton and fed it to the stray cats downstairs. I thought that adult cats might be lactose intolerant, so I added some water to dilute it. The cats loved the milk and licked it clean... but they still looked like they weren't full and kept meowing for a long time."

Yukimura Chizuru and Fuyutsuki Kaede exchanged a glance, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just a pity for the stray cats downstairs; tonight is probably going to be a bloodbath...

"Speaking of which, Xiao Liang, why did you go downstairs to feed the cats in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" Yukimura Chizuru asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I've been having trouble sleeping lately. The pressure of studying is a bit too much." An Zeliang rubbed his temples.

“That’s true, Xiao Liang is already a senior in high school and will be taking the college entrance exam soon…” The thought that she had almost ruined her younger brother’s health at this crucial time made Dong Yuefeng feel even more guilty.

Yukimura Chizuru smiled and comforted him, "Xiao Liang's grades are so excellent, don't worry too much about the college entrance exam. Even if you don't do well, you still have your older sister. I'll take care of you, providing food, lodging, and living expenses. I can afford to support you."

"Thank you, Chizuru-nee, but I still want to get into Tokyo University just like you through my own efforts," Anze Liang said earnestly, glancing up at the clock on the wall.

"It's getting late, Chizuru-nee. We've been up quite late tonight, and I'm tired too. Let's get some rest."

"Well, let's rest then." Yukimura Chizuru yawned, and she was indeed a little sleepy.

"Goodnight, Chizuru-nee."

An Zeliang said goodnight and stood up to go back to his bedroom.

Just then, Yukimura Chizuru suddenly noticed something.

"Xiao Liang, your zipper is open."
