Tokyo: Simulation Begins with the Big Sister Next Door

You suggested that Matsui Rena report the incident to the police, but she said that because of this stalker, she had already moved several times and didn't want to make a big deal out of it; she just wanted a peaceful life.

You suggested that Matsui Rena ask her parents for help, but Matsui Rena said they were traveling abroad and wouldn't be back for a while.

You felt sorry for Matsui Rena, told her she could ask you for help if she needed anything, and then left Matsui Rena's apartment and returned home.

Was the move due to a stalker?

That doesn't make sense either. Given Matsui Rena's fighting prowess, if a stalker dared to set his sights on her, he'd probably be three meters old by now.

But if she wasn't a stalker, why was Matsui Rena injured?

Back then, when facing Junichi Watanabe, that serial killer, Rena Matsui completely defeated him. Even in the simulation, she took advantage of the simulated personality's inattention and ambushed and killed the simulated personality two or three times... Her skills and strength are evident.

What kind of stalker could possibly hurt Matsui Rena?

An Zeliang stroked his chin, finding the statement suspicious no matter how he looked at it.

It is also possible that Reina Matsui simply

She wasn't injured because she saw that Hayano-sensei was at home and that he exchanged contact information with her, so she thought the simulated personality was a scumbag and deliberately lured him home with her.

That bottle of red wine might have been laced with some kind of anesthetic.

However, thanks to her advanced anesthesia resistance skills, the simulated personality did not pass out despite drinking a whole bottle of red wine, disrupting Matsui Rena's plans and depriving her of the opportunity to strike.

But... is it really necessary for Matsui Rena to use injury to lure her simulated personality into helping her?

Wouldn't it be faster to just flirt with the simulated personality and lure it home?

I don't quite understand...

An Zeliang pondered for a few seconds, but when he couldn't come up with a particularly reasonable result, he stopped thinking about it.

Let's keep watching; the simulation might give us results soon.

The simulation continues.

[The next day after school, you buy something at the convenience store downstairs and learn from the other employees' casual conversation that Matsui Rena has resigned again.]

[You were worried about Matsui Rena's health, so you bought medicine and some food that's good for her when she's sick or injured and went to give it to her, but Matsui Rena didn't seem to be home.]

So you hung the things on the doorknob, sent her a text message to let her know, and then went home. That night, before going to bed, Matsui Rena sent you a heartfelt thank-you text message, saying that she would visit you the next day to bring you a thank-you gift.

The next day, Matsui Rena appeared before you as promised, bringing you lots of snacks and dishes she had cooked herself.

[While you were eating together, you casually turned on the TV as background noise, and the news reported that another scumbag's body had been found last night, and the crime scene was very close to your apartment.]

Matsui Rena exclaimed that it was terrifying and said she planned to move elsewhere because her current apartment was too unsafe.

[You thought the same thing, and asked Matsui Rena if she had enough savings to move after quitting her job. If not, you could lend her the money.]

Matsui Rena was somewhat surprised, then showed a grateful expression, saying that her savings were enough and she didn't need your help. Before leaving, Matsui Rena asked you why you were so kind to her.

You said that Ms. Matsui has always been very kind and gentle to you, and that you think she is a good person. Since you are friends, it is only natural for you to help each other.

Matsui Rena was very touched and said that she was older than you, and asked you to call her Rena-nee from now on. She said she would come to see you again after you move.

After the weekend, you study hard every day, striving for excellence. After class, you also attend club activities on time. Afterwards, you might visit Nakano Aoi's house to tutor her and supervise her to complete the study plan you prepared for her.

Time keeps flowing by.

After summer vacation started, Nakano Aoi said that she and her wife were going on a week-long hot spring trip. To thank you for taking care of her, her wife invited you to join them on the trip, with all food and lodging included. You accepted.

[My wife personally drove you all to this mountain hot spring resort. She booked the whole place, so it's just the three of you here, allowing you to enjoy yourselves to the fullest.]

During the day, your wife will drive you and Xiaokui out to eat, drink, and shop. In the evening, you'll return to the hot springs to rest and soak in the hot springs.

As the week was drawing to a close, my wife said she wanted to go downstairs.

Shan went to take care of some things and hadn't returned until late at night. She even called you suddenly, asking you to stay at the hot spring villa and not leave. You asked her if something had happened, and she just said to wait for her to return before the call abruptly ended.

Nakano Aoi was very worried. Since she couldn't contact her wife, she asked you to go down the mountain with her to look for her and call the police.

[You were worried that something had happened to Nakano Aoi, so you asked her to wait for the police at the hot spring villa while you went down the mountain to look for your wife. On the mountainside, you saw the car your wife had crashed into a tree.]

You followed the trail to your injured wife and wanted to take her back, but the second-in-command showed up with his men and demanded that you hand her over.

To protect your wife, you are constantly fighting against the second-in-command and others. You are very skilled, but unfortunately, your wife is by your side. The second-in-command and others will deliberately attack your wife and sneak up on her with guns, forcing you to block the attacks by force.

Finally, the battle ended, and you collapsed, covered in wounds, into your wife's arms.

Memory presentation.

"Anze!"

The lady held An Zeliang carefully, her eyes glistening.

Her trench coat was disheveled, and her usually neatly tied hair was now loose behind her. Her black hair was also torn, revealing many red marks and abrasions on her fair skin caused by the car accident. She looked very disheveled, but her elegant temperament could not be concealed.

An Zeliang, who was in his wife's arms, had streaks of blood on his body and his breathing had become much weaker.

"Mrs. Nakano, are you... alright?"

"I'm fine... Anze, I've already called for help..." The wife didn't finish her sentence. Besides gratitude and heartache, there was also a hint of confusion in her eyes. She seemed not to understand why Anze would risk his life to save her.

"It's good that Mrs. Nakano is alright..." Yasuzawa Ryo smiled weakly and continued with difficulty.

"By the way, Mrs. Nakano, you said you'd tell me what happened when you got back..."

"So how did they find out this address and then suddenly attack you, I..."

An Zeliang closed his eyes before he could finish speaking.

“…Anze!”

The lady looked very shaken for a moment, her eyes flickering. She opened her lips as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing. She just bent down and hugged the boy in her arms tightly.

The memory presentation has ended.

The simulation continues.

The people your wife called arrived on the mountain in time, but you fainted from blood loss due to protecting her. When you woke up, you were in Tokyo's most luxurious private hospital.

Your phone was damaged in the fight and you are temporarily unable to contact anyone.

[Since your wife arranged the hospital for you, the nurse notified Nakano Aoi first. After learning that you had woken up, Nakano Aoi rushed to the hospital to take care of you. When you asked about your wife's whereabouts, Nakano Aoi only said that your wife had been very busy lately and hadn't come home.]

Afterwards, Hoshimiya Rin and Tamamo Yuki brought you fruit baskets and other things, Hayano Hoshiko also came to comfort you with handmade bento boxes, and Sayaka Mina also secretly left many gifts at the front desk.

Your hospital room was suddenly filled with all sorts of things, and four beautiful girls took turns caring for you and showing you concern.

During this time, Nakano Aoi gave you a new phone and thoughtfully provided you with a new SIM card. You logged into your old social media accounts and read the messages that many people had sent you.

After replying to each message, you discovered that some of them contained information about Matsui Rena.

You told Matsui Rena that you had been in an accident and were hospitalized, and Matsui Rena said she wanted to come visit you, and you agreed.

Fifteen minutes later, Rena Matsui appeared in your hospital room with a handmade bento box.

Seeing so many gifts in your hospital room, Matsui Rena jokingly remarked that you were very popular. After chatting for a while, Matsui Rena helped you charge your phone, and after exchanging a few more words, she left the hospital.

In the days that followed, Matsui Rena would visit you from time to time, and sometimes she would look through your hospital records to help you calculate your discharge date.

The night you were discharged from the hospital, Nakano Aoi and the others had a big celebration for you.

After they left, Matsui Rena arrived late and presented you with a gift—a bottle of red wine.

[To celebrate your recovery and discharge from the hospital, Rena Matsui opened a bottle of red wine to enjoy with you.]

[But before she could finish the entire bottle of red wine, Matsui Rena revealed a smile tinged with blood, and your stomach began to ache terribly.]

[In half a minute, your consciousness went into darkness.]

In a daze, you feel Matsui Rena lying in your arms, curled up beside you.

“Anze… if I had left you there forever that night…”

"That's good..."

You were poisoned to death.

[End of simulation]

Chapter 182, Page 179: A Love Suicide! Advancing the Cause!

Rena Matsui has committed suicide with her simulated personality once again!

If the last time they committed suicide together was explained as Matsui Rena being subdued, then this time it's because they developed feelings over time and her yandere personality kicked in.

It seems like Matsui Rena's mental state has been quite unstable in these simulations... She keeps dragging her simulated personality down with her to die...

Moreover, there's something else that An Zeliang cares about.

On the night Matsui Rena was injured in the simulation, the case of the scumbag being murdered still occurred. However, that night, Matsui Rena was drinking red wine at home with her simulated personality, seemingly preparing to harm the simulated personality.

However, the simulated personality has resistance to anesthesia, so even if there was really an anesthetic in the red wine, the simulated personality was fine and stayed with Matsui Rena for a long time before going home.

In other words... Matsui Rena didn't have a chance to make a move that night!

The real killer of the scumbag is someone else, who also deliberately imitated the scumbag killer's methods... If you think about it that way, what's strange is that Matsui Rena doesn't seem to have any intention of finding this copycat.

Previously, Junichi Watanabe belittled the scumbag killer, calling her an amateur. Feeling insulted, Rena Matsui simply killed Junichi Watanabe. The murder was extremely horrific and carried a clear sense of punishment.

Why did Rena Matsui not react much to the copycats' behavior?

Constantly moving... Is it to escape the police, or to escape something else?

An Zeliang couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

But to be honest, there are too few clues given right now, and it's impossible to come up with an accurate answer in a short period of time.

After briefly considering some deductions, An Zeliang stopped thinking and decided to wait for the next simulation to see how things went.

At this point, the settlement rewards are also displayed.

[This simulation has ended. Your simulation reward has been collected.]

[Poison Resistance (Advanced)]

Another resistance skill.

An Zeliang remembered that he already had advanced virus resistance and advanced anesthesia resistance, which he had upgraded with points. Now he had poison resistance.

I feel that this body is now practically immune to all poisons.

Then, the poison resistance skill was also granted.
