I went all in on Group C

Just as Toyokawa Shoko said, she didn't practice well after that day, but instead ran to the river to collect stones...

Seeing that Takamatsu Deng's momentum was weakening, Ito Kaiji knew that he had avoided the first sighting by relying on the strategy given by Shiina Riki!

After hearing crychic, she no longer cared about herself, a nobody.

Humph~ Let him take advantage of this arrogance!

【LESSON2: Integrate into the other person's worldview! 】

"By the way, I heard that you're the lyricist for crychic, right? Did you come to the river to collect inspiration?"

"You're really dedicated, working hard for the band every moment!"

Hearing this, Gao Songdeng quickly shook her head. She came here simply because she felt that she had been abandoned again.

Just like what I have experienced countless times, no matter how hard I try to make friends with everyone, I will eventually do something wrong, make everyone angry, and end up being alone again.

Although this kind of thing is painful,...she is used to it.

Since the band doesn't want me, I will continue to collect stones and be friends with them as before.

After all, only stone will accompany her for the rest of her life and never leave.

No matter what is done to the stones, they will only continue to support themselves strongly.

After looking around, Gao Songdeng picked up an angular stone and said.

"I'm here to see my friends."

025 The stone I raise is called Lianlian

After blinking, cold sweat began to flow down Ito Kaiji's back. He thought too simply. The girl in front of him was even more terrifying than he had imagined!

The rhetoric that had previously been able to easily control Nagasaki Motoyo and Shiina Riki was now completely ineffective against her!

She told him, her fan, directly that she wasn't that serious about the band. Do ordinary people have the courage to do such a thing?!

And [Friend]....Although I had heard about it from Nagasaki Suyo before, the experience of seeing it with my own eyes was completely different.

This person is serious, she really treats stones as friends!

In other words, in her eyes, humans are no different from a piece of stone that can be manipulated at will!

In Ito Kaiji's short life, the worst woman he knew was the one who liked to keep dogs and treated people like dogs.

But Gao Songdeng easily did something even more exaggerated!

ZAWA~ZAWA~

He couldn’t escape, he couldn’t escape, he couldn’t escape. He had just sworn to Nagasaki Motoyo and Shiina Riki that he wouldn’t back down!

Come on, Kaiji Ito!

The story of Hachiko, a loyal dog, will definitely have no effect on this kind of woman. Let’s change it!

As a time traveler, the greatest wealth is the information in your mind that is so vast that you can’t even count it!

Soon, Kaiji Ito chose a new story!

He made a nostalgic expression and said.

"Making a stone your friend? What a coincidence! I actually used to keep a stone. It was a slightly green stone, and I named it Gu Ming Di Lian."

"She is a monster girl who has the ability to see through people's hearts. Because she longs for love, she keeps coming into contact with others, but because of her ability, she is constantly hurt by others."

"I've seen so much malice along the way. To avoid getting hurt, I chose to close my eyes forever and become a plain, insignificant little stone."

"But even so, [she] still longs for love and wants to spend her whole life with someone who loves her."

Feeling as nervous as someone confessing their love for the first time, Ito Kaiji was waiting for Takamatsu Deng's comment on his story.

This time, I specifically picked a character who should have some resonance with the other party. Whether I can fit into the other party's worldview depends on this wave!

............After a few seconds, without receiving any response, Ito Kaiji shouted in his heart, "It's over!"

According to the strategy given by Shiina Riki, when dealing with Takamatsu Touma, you must break her shell all at once, and you must never think of taking it slowly like hatching an egg!

Well, I gained a lot and will definitely use it next time!

It seems that a fake like him is really useless. He should find a way to go back and discuss with Nagasaki Motoyo, use her gentle heart to comfort Takamatsu Deng, and work with everyone to defeat the demon king with the power of bonds.

At the moment when Ito Kaiji relaxed completely, a few tears flowed from the corners of Takamatsu Deng's eyes. She had already immersed herself in the story!

This is talking about her!

Because of her own peculiarity, she couldn't understand what was ordinary and natural. She hurt others again and again, and was hurt by others, becoming an ordinary little stone.

But in my heart, I am still looking forward to...

".....What happened next?"

Yes, it works!

bingo!

This story really works!

Realizing that he had successfully integrated into the other person's world, Ito Kaiji shed tears, although he didn't know how big the effect was. It must be that the success reached his heart.

........Damn it, he suddenly met Takamatsu Deng and was frightened by her oppressive feeling. He even forgot to buy stocks!

If I had bought some of Takamatsu Deng’s stocks just now, I could have seen the effect just by looking at the rise and fall!

I felt my pockets...but found nothing.

By the way, when they just came to the beach, Nagasaki Suyo asked him to take the money, saying that he was the main force in the attack on Takamatsu Deng today, so she would be responsible for trivial matters such as buying drinks, desserts and gifts.

Of course, Ito Kaiji understood that this was just Nagasaki Suyo's way of taking care of his self-esteem, and in this way, she turned "all the money today is paid by her" into "the two of them spend money together today".

The little change he brought was just enough for travel expenses and the minimum amount to buy stocks.

At that time, I really didn't want to make such a good woman sad, so I didn't refuse... Now I'm doomed.

..........No.......reverse your thinking, he has no money, but Gao Songdeng has money!

Wouldn't it be enough if I just asked her to give me money and let me buy her stocks?

......There's no other way, let's give it a try.

【LESSON3: Make the other party believe completely, and believe even more! 】

Reaching out his hand to Takamatsu Deng, Ito Kaiji said as a matter of course.

"One thousand yen. If you want to know what happens next, just give me the money."

"Raising stones is unexpectedly expensive."

If it were anyone else, Ito Kaiji would never say such a thing. Raising stones is outrageous enough, and spending money on it is even more outrageous.

Most people would probably rather believe that the person on the other end of the phone is Qin Shi Huang than believe that it costs money to raise stones.

But this is exactly the effect Kaiji Ito wants!

Precisely because normal people would never take it seriously, Takamatsu Deng would be even more convinced that she, who could say such weird things, was the same kind as her!

"One thousand... Yeah."

He quickly took out a banknote and handed it to Ito Kaiji. Takamatsu Deng was completely different from a normal person and shrugged off what sounded like a joke.

In her opinion, it costs money to raise stones.

A good brush, a box for stones, and other sundry things are necessary.

Rather... this is something that is [natural].

"Indeed, I received it. Then let me tell you the follow-up. I was in love with her, but I lost her."

I used the thousand yen to buy Takamatsu Touma's stock, and the stock price was...quite normal.

As for the rise and fall...is it rising?

Hearing that a stone similar to his own was thrown, this kind of BE, for Takamatsu Deng, is actually increasing?!

Wrong, completely wrong. Ito Kaiji originally thought he understood Takamatsu Deng, but it turned out he still didn't understand her at all!

With a slight tremor, he curiously asked the other person what he thought.

The response was...

"Lianlian...what a nice name."

Smiling and expressing his feelings, Takamatsu Deng was quite envious of the stone. Even after so long, Ito Kaiji still couldn't forget it.

She herself can't do it. Although she has collected a lot of stones, she can't do it like Kaiji Ito.

Not only do they name the stones, but they also never raise new stones after losing one.

This is what it means to be together for a lifetime.

026 Thank you, Lixi

It was very hot today, but at this moment, Ito Kaiji felt colder than in the subway.

What does "What a nice name" mean?

Is this the point we should care about?!

“I envy her…”

Envy of the thrown stones???

Knocking his head with his hand, Ito Kaiji was sure that he really had no idea what the other person was thinking.

If it weren't for the strategy given by Shiina Riki, he would have been defeated by now!

Fortunately, he didn't need to know why the guide told him to do this, he just had to follow the guide!

You have a reliable partner!

With his bond and courage, he will definitely be able to defeat the demon king Takamatsu Deng!

Noticing that Takamatsu Deng's gaze towards him had softened considerably, Ito Kaiji took a deep breath and began the fourth step!

【LESSON4: Destroy the other person's false sense of security! 】

This is the most critical step, there is no turning back!

He turned around, facing the river, and only showed his side face to Takamatsu Deng, artificially creating a third perspective and increasing Takamatsu Deng's sense of involvement.

Raising his head slightly, he felt as if he was looking at a soul in heaven that was watching him.

"The story isn't over yet. I've actually been looking for Lianlian for a long time, but she seems to be hiding from me. I can't find her no matter how hard I look."

"Until one day, I didn't continue to look for her as usual, but went straight home to start again. I knew that I had actually given up on her."

"The place originally reserved for her at home was unknowingly replaced by something else."

"All traces of her life by my side gradually disappeared as time passed."

"If I hadn't met you today, I would have almost forgotten all my memories of her."

Turning his head slightly, Ito Kaiji focused his gaze on Takamatsu Deng's eyes, forcibly creating an atmosphere that he was no longer talking to himself, but was having a conversation with her.

He also took a look at crychic's stocks. The dismal green number and the downward trend that had begun for some unknown reason reminded him of the sadness and pain he felt on that rainy day.

After adjusting his emotions, he spoke.

"Later, I thought about starting over and growing a new stone."

"But that won't work. I can't get back the feelings I had when I first raised Lianlian. The me who loved Shi Tou in the past has died along with Lianlian."

"If you want to regain your original feelings, you can only revive Lianlian."

"Do you think my thoughts are normal?"

"It's just a piece of stone, but it responds with such extraordinary affection."

Sadness, pain...

Just like Renren in Ito Kaiji's story, Takamatsu Tomo can more or less feel other people's emotions, such as Shoko Toyokawa, who was filled with anger on that rainy day and seemed to be manipulated by fate.

Because of this, she naturally thought it was her fault and that she was the one who made Toyokawa Shoko so angry, just like everyone else she had met before.

Once you express this kind of anger towards her, it's a sign that you'll never see her again in this life.
