Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

Looking at the dark, gloomy town, Fujiwara Chika clenched her fists, raised them above her head, and cheered happily:

"We finally escaped!"

Even the usually calm and collected Kaguya Shinomiya let out a sigh of relief: "It's over."

The Dream Hotel, which kept restarting, was terrifying; we almost lost everything.

"Is this the Ghost Story Town?"

Kitagawa Kaimu put her right hand on her hip and looked around curiously. "It's so dark, it feels so eerie."

The succubus girl had just arrived at the inn and was now leaving for the first time, only to be greatly disappointed.

The town was pitch black and gloomy, with hardly any lights or human voices, and it didn't seem much safer than the hotel behind it.

"Natsuki, what do we do now?"

Kitagawa Kaimu took two steps closer and asked in a low voice.

pat.

Just as Natsuki Amamiya was about to speak, a videotape fell out of nowhere and landed in front of her.

"Hey, what's this?" Kitagawa Kaimu looked over curiously.

"It's a videotape we've filmed. Just hold onto it for ten minutes, then select submit, and the main quest will be completed."

As Amamiya Natsuki explained, she bent down and picked up the videotape.

On the videotape cover is Ms. Nakagawa, her face flushed, her eyes moist, and her hands inexplicably making a V sign.

There was another line of text next to it:

"Waaah~ Master, turn me into your own personal plush ball!"

A game notification sound then rang out.

Filming for 'The Haunted Hotel' has been completed.

[Note: The boy in the ghost story has lost his spiritual heart and disappeared completely. The rating of this mockumentary will increase significantly.]

[Note: The members of the Gongba forum are overjoyed. Several members of the Gongba forum are on the judging panel, which will give this videotape an extra boost in score.]

[Excellent skills! You've become a skilled Tauren warrior!]

"Tsk~ So your Dao heart has collapsed already. Young man, you really are still too inexperienced." Amamiya Natsuki lightly curled her lips. "...Should I say it's fortunate you're not a literary youth?"

Chapter 278 Why did you take so long to come out?

"Hey, what does this have to do with teenagers?"

Kitagawa Kaimu asked curiously.

“As we all know, literary enthusiasts love angst-filled youth literature.” Amamiya Natsuki looked at Haimeng and spoke of her own experience, “I once read a novel where the male protagonist’s entire family was killed on his wedding night, and his new wife was kidnapped by barbarians. He then traveled thousands of miles to find his wife and avenge her. When he finally found her, he stood outside the house, eavesdropping on the sound of his wife turning into a ball of velvet. In the end, he even played a tune called ‘Phoenix Seeking Phoenix’ to add to the festivities… It caused tons of damage to my young mind at the time.”

"Stop talking." Kitagawa Kaimu hugged her arms. "It sounds so painful."

Kaguya Shinomiya asked curiously:

"What does 'fluffy ball' mean? Why do you all look so strange when you mention it?"

"Cough cough cough." Fujiwara Chika coughed abruptly and quickly waved her hand, "That's a realm that only the evil one can access, Kaguya-chan, don't ask so many questions."

“That’s right.” The succubus girl looked at Kaguya and added, “Good children shouldn’t know.”

Shinomiya Kaguya: "..."

Everyone else knew, but I was the only one kept in the dark, which made me extremely unhappy.

A velvet ball, right?

After you clear the dungeon, search for it on your phone!

"Let's go," Fujiwara Chika said, changing the subject. "Let's go back to the restaurant."

"Wait a minute." Kitagawa Kaimu suddenly frowned, her tone hesitant. "It seems we've forgotten something very important?"

"I almost forgot."

Upon hearing this, Natsuki Amamiya turned her head and shouted into the dark, deserted night:

"Zhu Zhu, you can come out now."

Upon hearing the shouts, two figures, one tall and one short, finally stood up from a corner in the distance.

A petite figure came running over; it was none other than Lady Zhu Zhu, who had been waiting outside the inn.

Behind Zhu Zhu was a tall girl with long, straight black hair, named Komi.

The pink-haired girl ran over and threw herself into Amamiya Natsuki's arms, looking up at her with teary eyes, saying:

"W-Why did it take you so long to come out?!"

Time flows in sync with reality in the nightmare world.

in other words.

Each time the system restarts for an hour, an hour also passes in real time.

The nightmare restarted four times, and Lady Zhu Zhu lingered outside the hotel for a full four hours.

Having gone through the previous ghost stories together, Zhu Zhu has unknowingly come to trust Amamiya Natsuki completely.

After Natsuki Amamiya, Kaguya, and Chika entered the inn, they were initially full of confidence, thinking they would be out soon. However, as time passed, their hearts sank. After four hours of silence, their hearts had sunk to the bottom, and they were almost in despair.

That's why Lady Zhu Zhu was so excited when she heard Natsuki Amamiya's voice at this moment.

Throughout history, things that have been lost and then regained are always the ones that are most cherished.

"I'm sorry." Amamiya Natsuki reached out her right hand and gently patted Zhu Zhu's head, saying softly, "I made you worry."

Zhu Zhu subconsciously rubbed against Amamiya Natsuki's palm, then quickly realized what she had done, pulled away, and looked at him shyly.

"Don't touch my head."

"Yes Yes."

Amamiya Natsuki turned her gaze to the long-haired girl with black hair behind Zhu Zhu: "Komi-kun, we meet again."

Komi shuddered, turned around in a panic, and looked around before reaching for her notebook again.

You're not getting a chance to hear Komi-kun speak.

"Zhu Zhu, we've finally reunited."

Kitagawa Kaimu put her right hand on her hip, a bright and cheerful smile on her face that was almost as radiant as the sunshine.

Lord Zhu sniffed and asked curiously:

"Hai Meng, why did it take you so long to come out?"

The succubus girl explained, "Because there's a really scary nightmare in the hotel..."

"Let's talk as we walk," Fujiwara Chika said, pointing ahead. "Let's go back to the restaurant first."

"strangeness."

Kaguya Shinomiya frowned slightly.

Amamiya Natsuki looked at Kaguya and whispered, "What's wrong?"

“I think…” Kaguya Shinomiya pursed her pink lips, “I’ve also forgotten something.”

Amamiya Natsuki gently stroked her chin and pondered:

Now that you mention it, I also feel like I've forgotten something.

"Could it be a lingering effect of ghost stories?"

"possible."

"..."

After walking for a while, Natsuki Amamiya suddenly stopped and said with a serious expression:

"I remember I forgot something."

"Hmm?" Kaguya Shinomiya tilted her head. "What is it?"

Amamiya Natsuki slowly said:

"We still haven't found that obsessive female gamer who keeps repeating the same phrase that would kill any man."

"Oh, I remember now!" Kitagawa Kaimu slapped her forehead. "It's Tanaka-san! I told you I forgot something!"

Shinomiya Kaguya: "..."

I forgot about it myself.

Hai Meng, Kaguya, and a random female player entered the inn together. The random female player was the first to be affected.

During the later Nightmare Reboot, Natsuki Amamiya pretended to be a sewer cleaner and had a brief interaction with the female player. Due to time constraints, she did not have any further contact with her during the subsequent reboot process... and had completely forgotten about her.

at the same time.

Inside the hotel.

The random female gamer slowly woke up, trembling.

who am I?

Where am i?

Why am I the only one left?

Not only did they not even have a name, but they also forgot about him at the inn. Don't random players have any rights?

"Should we go back and find her?"

Amamiya Natsuki inquired.

“Of course I want to.” Kitagawa Kaimu clenched her fist. “I’d feel guilty just leaving Ms. Tanaka behind.”

“That’s right.” Fujiwara Chika nodded seriously. “We can’t just abandon Ms. Tanaka like this. We must help each other.”

"..."
