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

"Eh?"

Fujiwara Chika was startled, and then she noticed that Kaguya and Rikka were also looking behind her.

The naive girl suddenly tensed up and subconsciously turned her head to look behind her. Suddenly, a woman named Sadako, wearing a white dress stained with blood and with long black hair covering her entire face, came into view.

"Ahhh!"

The girl's exclamation was exceptionally loud.

Fujiwara Chika suddenly pounced into Amamiya Natsuki's arms, her soft body pressing against Amamiya Natsuki's face, almost making him breathless.

"Everyone says not to be nervous." Amamiya Natsuki tried to push away the octopus-like Fujiwara, her eyes filled with disdain. "She's my roommate in the same hospital room, the shy Sadako-san, she's very easy to get along with."

When Natsuki Amamiya first entered the ward, he didn't notice Sadako. But halfway through his conversation, Sadako quietly crawled out of the television.

The movement was silent, and the light in the ward was dim. By the time Amamiya Natsuki noticed, Ms. Sadako had already come up behind Fujiwara Chika. Instead of attacking the airheaded girl, she seemed to be... listening to gossip.

Clearly, even vengeful spirits have a gossipy nature.

After being discovered by Natsuki Amamiya, Sadako's black hair, which was covering her face, trembled slightly. She turned around and tried to escape back to the television, not wanting to comb her middle-part hairstyle again.

"Don't hide, you're the owner of this ward," Natsuki Amamiya called from behind. "Miss Sadako, hurry up and come over to greet the guest... no, to entertain the guest."

Upon hearing this, Ms. Sadako became even more nervous and couldn't get into the television.

“Um…” Fujiwara Chika blinked, instinctively wrapping her arms around Natsuki’s neck, her voice hesitant, “Is she stuck?”

Chapter 45 What to do when there are more and more leg ornaments?

Miss Sadako was ultimately too shy to entertain guests and retreated back into the television without saying a word.

"Fujiwara, you can get up now."

Kaguya Shinomiya suddenly spoke.

"Eh?"

Fujiwara Chika was startled, only then realizing she was still sitting in Amamiya Natsuki's lap. Hearing this, she quickly stood up, "Kaguya-chan, you wouldn't be eating...?"

"What to eat?"

Kaguya Shinomiya tilted her head and looked over, her voice echoing with the timbre of the night.

"Nothing at all."

Fujiwara Chika covered her chest with both hands and quickly shook her head.

Kaguya Shinomiya shifted her gaze to Natsuki Amamiya, her expression cool and composed: "Amamiya-kun, what was that Sadako-san all about just now?"

“It’s my roommate who shares a ward with me.” Natsuki Amamiya briefly explained what happened, and concluded, “Our roommate relationship is pretty good now.”

"What's so good about it?!" Fujiwara Chika couldn't help but exclaim, "Sadako was so scared of you that she hid back inside the TV!"

"Then shall I call out Miss Sadako so you two can have a chat?"

"Thank you, but I refuse."

"..."

"Let's get down to business." Kaguya Shinomiya extended a finger and gently pressed it against her brow. "What are you planning to do next, Amamiya-san?"

Amamiya Natsuki quickly replied:

"Naturally, the goal is to complete tasks as much as possible and earn more rewards."

The main mission is to survive for 24 hours. As long as you have a middle-part comb, Sadako, who has severe social anxiety, won't dare to come out and scare people.

In other words, you can stay in the hospital room for the rest of the time, wait for the main quest to be completed, and then leave the game.

The problem is that this approach only yields the most basic reward, which is ten game coins, enough to buy at most one daily blind box.

Passive avoidance has never been Natsuki Amamiya's choice.

Especially since your eyes can see various prompts, you should try your best to complete the tasks and get more rewards.

Kaguya Shinomiya nodded slightly, her thoughts coinciding with those of Natsuki Amamiya:

"Either don't do it at all, or do it to the best of your ability. Let's work together in a bit."

"..."

The darkness quietly ended.

The corridor lights came back on.

Natsuki Amamiya opened the door a crack, carefully checked it, and said softly, "You can go out now."

“I’m going out too.” Fujiwara Chika cautiously looked towards the door, her right fist clenched. “The three of us entered the game together, so of course we should leave together.”

Hey, don't make rash statements, it's dangerous!

Rikka Takanashi naturally followed along, as she dared not leave the ward alone, for who knows if Ms. Sadako might suddenly become warm and hospitable.

The four of them went into the corridor.

Although the lights were on, the corridor still felt somewhat eerie.

One by one, unlucky players emerged from the surrounding wards. Several of them had bruises on their bodies, and everyone looked terrible. Some were even crying as they came out.

"It seems everyone is working very hard." Fujiwara Chika clasped her hands to her chest. "I hope I can help everyone."

“I can’t help.” Kaguya Shinomiya’s voice was cold and ruthless. “Offering help to strangers for no reason will only make us think we have ulterior motives.”

Fujiwara Chika whispered:

"Xia Shu and I can use a combined attack to capture the outlaw Zhang San."

“The problem is we can only deal with one vengeful spirit,” Natsuki Amamiya said. “What if we help one person, and then another person asks us for help?”

"..."

Fujiwara Chika remained silent.

Offering timely assistance to others within your means is called helping; trying to save everyone beyond your capabilities is foolish.

The group headed straight for the nurses' station, hoping to uncover the hospital's secrets. The best way to do so was to start with the nurses.

After walking a few steps, two players suddenly got into a fight in the corridor.

A male player pushed a female player to the ground, stole something, and then walked away.

"Are you OK?"

Fujiwara Chika quickly stepped forward and helped the fallen girl up, quite indignant, "How could he steal other people's things?"

Stealing things is nothing. There are no laws in the game. They can just pick you up and carry you away without any problem!

"fine……"

The girl bit her lower lip, her gaze falling on Amamiya Natsuki. Her eyes suddenly brightened, and she excitedly exclaimed:

"Big...big boss?!"

"Ok?"

Amamiya Natsuki raised an eyebrow and looked over, feeling that the face looked somewhat familiar, but for a moment she couldn't remember who it was.

“We met before at the Ghost Academy, inside the exam hall. I was sitting in the corner by the window.” The girl was excited. “I never thought I’d run into a few big shots. I’m finally saved.”

You're overthinking it. We're just newbies who haven't been here long, not pros at all.

"Feel sorry……"

Amamiya Natsuki wanted to refuse, but there were no proctors here who could be bribed.

"I understand the rules." The girl quickly took out two items and showed them their attributes. "This is all the stuff I have!"

[Props: A bunch of green chives]

This item was created through hybridization and cultivation by Void Technology Company. The chives are naturally pollution-free, requiring no sunlight, soil, air, or water. They can grow by absorbing free energy from the void. Once harvested, a new crop will quickly grow back, endlessly.

[Note: You can use this to practice 100 ways to cut chives]

Natsuki Amamiya gave a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth.

well.

As expected of blind boxes, you can get all sorts of random things from them.

What is the use of a bunch of chives?

Are you suggesting we cut a bunch of chives every day to make chive pancakes?

Natsuki Amamiya looked at the second item.

[Props: Speech bow tie]

[How to use: Wear the bow around your neck for an extra boost to your speaking skills, making you more charming and exciting.]

[Note: I don't need to elaborate on its purpose, right?]

"I've only participated in the game three times, and I don't have many game coins. This is all the stuff I got from the blind boxes." The female player, whom I had met once before, bowed deeply. "Please accept this."

Game currency is the most important thing, but Natsuki Amamiya and Kaguya have already proven that game currency cannot be traded or gifted. The various items obtained from blind boxes are irrelevant and can even be directly stolen.

As newcomers to the game, Amamiya Natsuki and her two companions had a very low chance of encountering truly skilled players. Most newbies had very meager gear, and what they could get from blind boxes depended entirely on luck.

“Natsuki-kun.”

Fujiwara Chika looked on expectantly.

Kaguya Shinomiya said softly, "Compared to helping others for free, an equivalent exchange of benefits is acceptable."

After a moment's thought, Amamiya Natsuki agreed: "I'll take the things. Come directly to my room later; the ward is safe now."

Things may seem useless, but they might have a surprising effect at a crucial moment, like the cat ear hair accessories in the Ghost Academy.

"I'm causing trouble for you."

The girl's face lit up with surprise, and she quickly bowed.

"What did that person steal from you?" Amamiya Natsuki asked.

Only after asking did I find out that they were stealing food.

Although the game is entered through the soul or consciousness, you will still feel hungry.
