Horror simulator, if you survive till tomorrow, you win

[The worst and middle strategies can be selectively implemented in combination. ]

"What does this unknown... mean?"

Ito Jun was confused.

Is there some secret in that home that he doesn't remember?

"There are three strategies: best, middle, and worst. The best strategy is to solve the problem fundamentally, the middle strategy is to let others be the scapegoat, and the worst strategy is to let the whole world share the burden... Are they divided according to the degree of simplicity?"

Obviously, the worst plan is the simplest. As long as he can sell Kayako's notebook in time and find a way to have someone blow up the haunted house, he will always be on the second level of the curse list as long as he escapes quickly.

The best strategy is the most difficult. To influence Kayako? Don’t be kidding.

The middle strategy is slightly less dangerous than the worst strategy. Although the people killed by him may not let him go, it is better than being cursed by Kayako.

After some thought, Ito Jun opened the simulator.

【Start simulation】

[Please select 10 talents from the following 3 talents. ]

Friends (blue): 3000 million RMB or 3000 million loyal friends, which one would you choose? Note that friends are not dead men, so don't expect them to be loyal to you.

American Traditional Martial Arts (White): American Iai, you deserve it.

Zhi Duoxin (white): Intelligence > 10, Family background +2

Nostalgia (blue): activated at low health, revived at full health.

Guardian Spirit (blue): Burn some incense for our ancestors.

Play Dead (Purple): May cause enemies to ignore you for up to 6 minutes.

Whitebait: You are very good at swimming.

Resurrection mantra (orange): ちよたにけらはとほらすてのはてきらとなりはしてと.

Albino (white): You will not be shot.

Short-lived (blue): Beautiful women have short-lived fortunes. Appearance value increases by 1 every day, while physical fitness decreases by 1 every day.

The only orange talent cannot be missed, and the only purple talent is useless.

For the third talent, Jun Ito can only choose from three blue talents.

It's a reminder of the past, saying that he was resurrected with full health, but with only a blue talent, it's probably an exaggeration.

Poor luck, please, what I need now is physical fitness.

Guardian spirit, probably can fight against Kayako.

Ito Jun decisively chose the resurrection spell, friends, and guardian spirits.

Chapter 7 Dissolution

[On the first day, with the help of Runma Saeki, you successfully escaped to a love hotel.

During the break, you found Kayako's notebook and the records on the last page of the notebook. You immediately went to borrow the hotel's phone, contacted Mariko, and told her about your predicament.

Mariko claimed that she was not strong enough and not old enough to take on jobs, so she introduced you to another shrine.

After hanging up the phone, you suddenly thought, this world has ghosts, gods, Buddhas and methods to exorcise evil spirits, why not pray for the blessing of ancestors? After all, the heroine of Ju-Jou 2 can ask her dead mother to bless her.

The Ito family's hometown is in Tokyo. They moved to another place eighteen years ago, but their ancestral graves were not moved. You make a decision in your heart. 】

[The next day, you left the hotel, borrowed 2000 yen from Runma Saeki, bought four bouquets of white chrysanthemums, and went to visit your ancestral grave.

The talent [Guardian Spirit] is activated.

After the tomb sweeping, you go to the shrine and ask the chief for help. The chief accepts your request but requires a fee of 30 yen, which is equivalent to one month's salary for the working class. It is not very expensive, but it is not cheap either.

You walked down the street in distress, passed by an Internet cafe, and walked in casually.

Surfing the Internet aimlessly, you stumble upon a website by mistake.

Dating login.

Fill in age, gender, occupation, blood type, personality, and appearance, and you will have a friend who meets the requirements.

You touched the money in your pocket, and decisively wrote "spendthrift" in the personality section, filled in a younger age section as indicating that you are easily fooled, and filled in the other items casually.

After filling in the form, the website will close automatically.

The talent [Friend] is activated. 】

[On the third day, you met the rich second-generation Ogino Hikaru, who invited you to a silver party. After careful consideration, you proposed to hold the silver party at his residence, and Ogino Hikaru gladly accepted.

The silver party is about to begin, you claim to have something urgent to do, retrieve your phone, leave the haunted house, give Kayako's notebook to Ogino Hikaru to liven up the party, and borrow 40 yen from Ogino Hikaru.

While Kayako is distracted by Ginpa, you rush to the shrine introduced to you by Mariko to receive the exorcism ceremony from the lord.

The ceremony went smoothly until it was almost over, when Kayako arrived late.

The god withstood the pressure and completed the exorcism ritual. Without thinking, you escaped from the back door. You heard screams and strange noises on the way, but nothing happened. 】

[On the fourth day, you went out in a good mood, but bumped into a man. He knelt down to apologize to you. Although you were a little unhappy, he was sincere, so you forgave him.]

[On the fifth day, you received a call, and the caller ID showed that it was Ogino Hikaru. You threw away your phone without hesitation, and followed the method taught by the lord, placing a bowl of salt at the door.]

【On the sixth day, your body dissolved.】

[Rating: B]

[Reward: Guardian Spirit x 4 (Please sweep the graves of your ancestors once.)]

"I'm dead? How did I die?"

Ito Jun looked confused.

Resolving the crisis of the curse was a good thing, but why did he die inexplicably?

"It's not the killing method of the curse, but the problem of that man?"

Ito Jun seemed to be thinking about something.

Because he knelt down to apologize, she hated him and used curses and other things to kill him.

This is the normal logic of a horror movie, but Jun Ito always felt something was wrong.

Moreover, there was an inexplicable sense of déjà vu, as if I had heard of this way of dying somewhere.

But... the reward this time is actually a guardian spirit? !

Ito Jun licked his lips excitedly. Compared to the chameleon element, this was a real supernatural power, although he had to go to the grave first.

"Why is there no chameleon element in this simulation?"

After carefully reviewing the simulation content, Jun Ito suddenly discovered something.

The reward I got in the second simulation was successfully obtained in the third simulation, but not in the fourth simulation.

Why is that?

Ito Jun scratched his itchy scalp and thought carefully.

"Is it unstable because I don't have the talent to choose from?"

If you think about it carefully, this is the only possibility.

A thought will create a future. In the last simulation, I met a rich second-generation, so there is no need to undergo medical experiments. Without exposure to medical experiments, I naturally cannot get special props.

Ito Jun turned his head and looked at the time. It was 11:47. In another 13 minutes, it would be the next day, and the number of simulations would increase by 1.

Jun Ito does not plan to continue with the simulation.

At present, the crisis of the curse has been resolved, and there are clues to avoid the dissolution crisis. First, accumulate the number of simulations to the maximum, and then you don’t have to worry about encountering danger.

So, the next step is to borrow a phone!

Ito Jun put on a bath towel and went to the front desk on the first floor.

"Can I borrow your phone?"

Ito Jun knocked on the table, borrowed a phone from the front desk, and dialed Mariko's number.

"Hey……"

A tired female voice sounded. One could imagine that the woman opposite had just climbed out of bed, and her face in the night revealed an expression of fatigue and impatience.

This time period is the right time to sleep. Ito Junya knows that it is annoying to call now, but he can't help it.

"Hello, is this Mariko?"

"It's me, what's wrong?"

"I heard from my friends at school that you have a psychic physique, right?"

"what?"

"It's like this, I've encountered difficulties in this area, and I hope to get help. If there is a way to do this, I hope you can tell me."

Ito Jun told Mariko about his situation.

Perhaps because they were not friends, or perhaps because Mariko was upset by the call in the middle of the night, she did not volunteer, but instead introduced another shrine to Ito Jun.

The next day, around seven in the morning, Ito Jun got up from bed and put on his clothes stained with sewage with some resistance.

He wet the towel with cold water, wiped his face, and looked at himself in the mirror.

The handsome boy had a bitter look on his face, his brows were furrowed, unable to relax.

"Ugh……"

He tried his best to regard this experience as an unrealistic game to reduce the psychological pressure, although it was very difficult.

Walking out of the love hotel and standing on the side of the road, Ito Jun looked up at the sky.

The weather today is very good, with clear skies. The early summer rain always comes in bursts. The early morning sky forms a sharp contrast with yesterday's rainy night, and Ito Jun's mood has calmed down a little.

There were few pedestrians in the early morning. The occasional passerby cast strange looks at Ito Jun and walked away without stopping.

"I still have to go back."

After struggling for a long time, Ito Jun sighed.

Every cell in his body resisted going back to the haunted house, but he had to go back.

The amulet that his grandfather told him to always carry with him, clean clothes, the cell phone that humans cannot live without, and the 5000 yen pressed on the bedside table - eggs should not be put in one basket, and Ito Jun is used to keeping some of his money at home to avoid losing it.

You can borrow money, but you can’t borrow a cell phone or amulet.

Chapter 8: First meeting with Kayako

"Ah!"

Ito Jun couldn't help but sneeze.

The wind in the early morning was very cold. Although it stopped raining, there was still some chill from last night. The two white thighs began to tremble when the wind blew.

Ito Jun suddenly realized that he had not been wearing pants. No wonder passers-by looked at him strangely.

At this moment, a black car slid to the door of the love hotel with a low-decibel engine sound.

Ito Jun walked away, but heard his own name.

"Ito."
