Tokyo: Simulation Begins with the Big Sister Next Door

No one is empty.

An Zeliang did not come out.

Rin Hoshimiya's brows furrowed slightly, and she leaned her head forward a little more, holding the protruding head for a few more seconds before slowly pulling it back.

At the corner, a pale-skinned girl stood quietly, lost in thought, before her feet began to move again.

pat, pat...

Walking up to the vending machine, Hoshimiya Rin calmly glanced at it, pressed a few buttons with her fingertips, scanned the code to pay, and a bag of potato chips and a bottle of drink fell into the dispenser.

Take it out, tear open the potato chips, and twist open the drink.

Hoshimiya Rin picked up a potato chip in the deserted corner, examined it for a moment, and then put it in her mouth and chewed it.

"Well!"

She frowned again, took two small sips of her drink, and finally swallowed it.

And so, Hoshimiya Rin ate all the potato chips with her drink, one bite at a time. After finishing her drink, she threw the trash into the trash can, went to the bathroom to wash her hands, and then patted herself down, pulling out a brown leather notebook from somewhere.

Crash.

Turning to the last page of the notebook, Hoshimiya Rin took out the ballpoint pen tucked inside and calmly wrote.

"On Monday, [Date], the weather was cloudy."

“Anze bought me cheese natto flavored potato chips and a strawberry drink.”

"Strawberry drink, very good, 100 points; cheese natto flavored potato chips, -200 points."

"Total negative 100 points, failing grade!"

With a heavy exclamation mark, Hoshimiya Rin glanced at her notes with a cold expression, then slammed the book shut and turned to leave.

The students' leather shoes made a clattering sound as they stepped on the floor.

It seems they are still very angry.

Meanwhile, Anze Ryo and Nakano Aoi finished their lunchboxes and returned to the classroom.

An Zeliang sat down in the chair and casually picked up a pen, twirling it around.

In his past life, when he was a student in China, cell phones were not allowed in school and there wasn't much to do. So many people learned to spin pens. An Zeliang also learned and could do fancy pen spins. His hand skills were quite remarkable.

Now, he twirled his pen as he pondered.

As for Hoshimiya Rin, we definitely need to appease her.

But... given the president's current situation...

His state clearly indicates he's acting arrogantly.

This disease is very serious!

If you keep trying to appease her, she will only become more arrogant and won't forgive you.

It's a very simple principle. For example, if you break your girlfriend's lipstick and make her angry, you think about quickly apologizing in a humble voice, hoping to get her to forgive you.

Little did she know, her girlfriend was still angry. Seeing her begging and pleading like this would only make her angrier, and she would think that what she had done was too much.

It was originally just a matter of lipstick, but due to differences in male and female thinking, coupled with the added element of pride and arrogance, it escalated into something uncontrollable...

Of course, the president's tsundere nature isn't that severe, but it's still there to some extent.

Therefore, the best approach is to try to appease her first, and if she doesn't forgive you, then simply give her the cold shoulder.

Let her know what it means to lose everything because you're arrogant!

Of course, it's not a real breakup. The idea is to first give her a hard time, making her think she's about to lose you, and then offer her sweetness. That way, her pride can be easily tamed.

So what Anze Liang needs to do now is also very simple.

Throw the first punch!

Actually, from the moment Nakano-kun started feeding him during dinner, he was deliberately eating in front of Hoshimiya Rin.

I just want to annoy her!

Furthermore, Anze Liang also plans not to attend the club activities in the afternoon.

Keep the heavy blows in!

I made Hoshimiya Rin think I was angry, which made her feel a sense of loss and unease, and made her restless and uneasy.

After finishing his thoughts, An Zeliang tossed the pen back into his pencil case, turned on his phone, and started browsing shopping websites.

Buying gifts is really an art; you have to look carefully and choose thoughtfully.

After looking around for a while, An Zeliang finally picked out a few gifts that could be delivered that evening. After confirming the delivery time with the merchant, he turned off his phone, rubbed his eyes, and rested for a bit.

There is no English class in the afternoon, but there is one biology class and one music class.

After the biology class ended, everyone in the classroom stood up.

In Japan, music lessons are held in music classrooms, which are usually equipped with a grand piano, drum set, and other musical instruments.

An Zeliang's school had ample funding, so it was equipped with musical instruments such as violins.

However, usually only members of the wind band practice their instruments during music class; everyone else practices things like choral singing.

"Anze, shall we go together?" Nakano Aoi walked over with the choral sheet music.

"Hmm, what are we practicing today?" An Zeliang asked casually. High school seniors don't have many music classes, so he didn't quite remember what they were about.

"They're probably practicing the school song. After all, summer vacation is coming up soon, and the school is probably preparing for the school festival. They'll probably pick some of the best-performing seniors from each class to perform the school song together..."

As Nakano Aoi spoke, she seemed to remember something.

"Anze, there should be study camps for senior high school students during the summer vacation. Will you be going?"

"Hmm...we'll see." An Zeliang didn't give a definitive answer.

Although with his current level, getting into Tokyo University is absolutely no problem, and he naturally wouldn't need to attend a training camp, it's still... it's an experience during school, like military training in China, even though nobody likes it.

It was fun, but looking back on it later, it will feel like a very youthful time.

Nakano Aoi didn't ask any more questions and started talking about other things.

The music class passed by in a blur, and then school was over.

"Anze, aren't you participating in club activities anymore?"

Seeing that Anze Liang had packed his things and was walking towards the gate, Nakano Aoi followed after him with a puzzled look on her face.

“Although I wasn’t physically in the activity room, my mind was there. As long as my mind was there, that’s enough to be considered as participation,” An Zeliang said earnestly.

Nakano Aoi's eyes widened; she never expected someone to describe skipping club activities in such a refreshing and unconventional way.

After blinking, Nakano Aoi followed Yasuzawa Ryo's footsteps.

"Then... I'll go with you. I'll ask the president for leave via message later."

"... "

As the two were chatting, Hayano Hoshiko walked towards them. She seemed to have just finished class, still holding her lesson plan in her hand, her bangs were a little messy, and she hurried towards them.

Seeing that Anze Liang had already walked out of the classroom, Hayano Hoshiko suddenly stopped, her lips moving slightly.

“Anze, classmate…”

"Hayano-sensei, good afternoon." Nakano Aoi greeted him with a smile from behind, and then thoughtfully took out a handkerchief and handed it to him, "Teacher, your nose is a little sweaty, please use my handkerchief to wipe it if you don't mind."

"Ah, um... thank you, Nakano-kun." Hayano Hoshiko took the handkerchief and wiped her face. "I'll wash it and return it to you later."

"Mr. Hayano, what were you trying to say?" Anze Liang asked.

"N-nothing, I just finished grading the in-class quiz papers and saw you two, so I thought I'd come over and give you a little advice," Hayano Hoshiko said, blinking and trying to sound authoritative.

"Anze, Nakano, you'll be taking your college entrance exams soon, so keep up the good work after school."

"Well, teacher, you don't need to worry too much. Anze will be having a study session with me tonight."

"I see... Well, I'll get back to work now. Take care on your way home." Hayano Hoshiko paused for a moment, then turned and left without saying anything more.

An Zeliang watched her retreating figure, his mind racing.

The way Hayano-sensei is acting clearly means she wants to say something to him.

Are you trying to talk about what happened that night?

Speaking of which, when Hayano-sensei came back for hot pot that night, she was very concerned about whether Hoshimiya Rin would come.

Unlike Rin Hoshimiya, Ms. Hayano did not show anger, but rather appeared to have accepted it, but not completely.

Did the two of them communicate in private?

Could it be that... it was Hayano-sensei who decided to accept this three-person relationship, while Hoshimiya Rin disagreed?

It's a bit far-fetched, but we can't rule out the possibility that it's even less likely than winning a hundred million in the lottery!

Anze Liang thought about it for a while but couldn't come to any more reliable conclusion, so he simply stopped thinking about it and chatted casually with Nakano Aoi. Soon they arrived at the apartment entrance.

"Anze-kun." At this moment, Nakano Aoi tilted her head and said with a smile, "Um, I have some classwork to do later and I wanted to ask you for help with some questions, so... if you're not busy right now, could you please come to my house now?"

"I'll take care of Anze's dinner!"

“Okay, I’m not busy.” An Zeliang agreed. Anyway, he would have to cook when he got home, and it would be too hot to cook in the middle of summer, so he might as well just freeload a meal.

"Mmm!" Nakano Aoi nodded happily, then turned and opened the door.

"... "

In the simulation, An Zeliang visited the small villa many times.

The spacious living room, the exquisite furnishings, the comfortable and soft sofa... An Zeliang glanced at it and was filled with memories from the simulation.

"My room is on the second floor." Nakano Aoi took off her school shoes, and her black stockings made a slightly dull thud as they stepped on the wooden floor.

The two quickly entered Nakano Aoi's bedroom, which was very clean. A single bed of moderate size was placed by the window, facing the street. If you lay down on it and turned your head, you could see Anzawa Ryo's apartment building below.

The floor was covered with a soft carpet, and there were several large wardrobes and full-length mirrors on the side.

A faint fragrance permeated the air; I couldn't tell if it was aromatherapy or perfume. It wasn't overpowering and had a calming effect.

There is a desk in the bedroom, and a small table propped up on the floor next to it.

An Zeliang put his schoolbag on the ground and casually sat down next to the table: "Nakano-kun, take out your homework and take a look. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me."
