I am the emotional sustenance of your deceased

Page 241

Although Mu doesn't know who the other person is, everyone probably has such an invisible hidden partner in their hearts, right?

That's great, is this the world's defense mechanism?

When he took off his shoes, his socks were wet. Mu then remembered that they were wet when he stepped into a puddle just now.

I was enjoying a rock and roll dream while walking, so I didn't notice these things.

"Well."

Mu blinked, and suddenly a sentence that Qiansui said in his dream popped up in his mind.

"Xiao Mu, people need some spirit! Go, do something different! Don't just blindly satisfy other people's needs; that's just stifling your own individuality! Without individuality, I'd rather die!"

Personality?

Mu thought for a while and decided to walk around the house without shoes today and only in wet socks.

【Consider this my first interpretation of my personality.】

Small footprints were left behind him. Mu stood on the corridor at home for a while, not knowing what to do.

There is no ballet class today.

There's no piano lesson today...and no one needs me to pass on messages today.

Then just go play rock music.

Rock is a person's spiritual catharsis, and rock is also a reason for a person to die.

As long as it can move yourself or others, as long as it can spread the sound, rock music is the best pastime for Ruoye Mu when he is alone.

"Just eat something and go to bed."

Another day spent alone.

It would be nice if she had an imaginary friend to keep her company.

The stairs leading to the underground are longer than Mu's life, and the complete facilities inside highlight her parents' occasional concern for her.

"Huh, Xiaosui, I'm coming to catch up with you, the great... Rock God Noshiro Chitose!"

Once at a party, Mu performed his guitar, and his father's friend praised him:

[Your child's talent is like the wings of a butterfly; it's completely innate...very impressive.]

This was originally a compliment to Fitzgerald, and it is interesting to use it to describe myself.

But only Mu knows——

"I am nothing more than an ant born in an era without a thousand-year-old generation."

When the rock music started, Mu played for a while but found that something was missing.

She put down her guitar in silence and wandered around the basement restlessly.

"No...it's weird to play alone...in my dreams, it's just me and my music clashing against each other."

Throughout the entire year of Crychic II's existence, Mutsu and Chitose would often play guitar on stage.

But Chitose loved her keyboard so much that when Noshiro Chitose came to an end, Mutsu would never smile again.

[The best opponent in the world has passed away. I can no longer challenge or defeat her.]

[No matter how strong I become, I can't defeat her.]

"I'm completely defeated."

Pity.

Mu put the guitar in the guitar bag and carried her to the door.

"I need an opponent... It's too lonely to be alone."

She needs an opponent who can satisfy her, an opponent who can let her play to her heart's content.

"Let's go to Ring."

If Ye Mu walked out of the room, her destination was Ring.

She was waiting for a passing guitarist to challenge her to a duel, as only this could relieve her daily boredom.

[Years old, did you see that? I've grasped the awareness you're talking about.]

perhaps.

Ch328. The future that Noshiro Chitose can promise

"Isn't 'Ladyfingers' an instrumental piece? This isn't right."

"I don't know. This is my first time hearing it too."

Ring's cafe is the best place for girls to relax and unwind. Here you can refresh the white-haired kittens that you can touch, hug and hold as you like as long as you feed them parfait.

Qiansui rubbed out the small white hair left under her fingernail, which was picked up when she petted the kitten just now.

Beside her, Nagasaki Suyo used the music software's song recognition function to identify the background music in the room.

"Yeah, Xiao Sui, it is indeed 'Ladyfingers'."

Su Shi regretted that she knew too little, otherwise when Xiao Sui asked her the question just now, she could have shown off in front of the crowd.

She longed for Qiansui's praise and compliments, just like a kitten longing for dried fish or a little girl longing for her mother's pat on the head.

"Eh?"

The bottom of the teacup touched the tea tray lightly, and Chitose immediately knew what the girl in front of him was thinking.

When she was a mother to Nagasaki Suyo, she often faced the little girl's pitiful eyes.

[You can't hide it at all. I caught you completely.]

[Xiao Sushi, you are so stupid. Or is it that I, the fox, am too cunning?]

Qiansui stood up and walked around Sushi and hugged her, his human heart touching the back of Qiansui's neck, while one hand rubbed and patted the top of Sushi's head.

"That's great! Our little Sushi is so amazing! She knows so much. She's the best little girl."

"Hey! Don't try to coax me like that... I'm not a child anymore."

【My eyes suddenly became moist.】

Su Shi found that his voice was also trembling.

Facing Chitose Noshiro, she couldn't stop recalling those bizarre and beautiful regrets.

[Xiao Sui... you are worthy of being my mother's daughter since you were little. ]

I wanted to say this to Chitose, but it was too weird. And if I told Chitose that I was her incompetent mother and incompetent daughter in my dream—

He would definitely be considered a psychopath or a pervert.

Su Shi broke out in a sweat when he thought of this result.

"Eh?"

Next to them, Deng Gaosong was stirring the caramel macchiato in his cup with a coffee spoon.

Faced with the two who were as close as mother and daughter, Deng found that he couldn't even find anyone to complain to about this matter in the absence of Shiina Riki.

Today, the black-haired girl with teardrop mole from their small group did not gather.

She went home early on the grounds that "I'm busy with something very important that concerns my future happiness and the continuation of my life, so I'm too busy to come to see you."

While squinting her eyes and rubbing Su Shi's head, Noshiro Chitose was also paying attention to Takamatsu Touma's movements and expressions.

"Girl with short gray hair, why are you like that alcoholic senior I know... you like to stare blankly and motionless when you're nervous or upset? As far as I know, you didn't have these unusual habits in other people's simulations of you during your junior high and high school years."

Idiots.

It's impossible to pretend well.

You'll be exposed if you give me just a little provocation.

I always feel like I can scare you with these things, hehe.

"Xiao Deng, do you need me to rub your head too?"

"Eh! I don't need it, I'm a big boy...ah! Su Shi...don't look at me, I don't mean that, I mean..."

"Stupid lamp, enjoy it."

Chitose moved away and began to rub a little girl with each hand.

Her current mood is not that complicated. Years of simulation experience have tempered her character.

Even if she were told now that the entire universe was a fake, and her life was nothing but a comedy orchestrated by superior narrators, with countless pairs of eyes anticipating her death in the simulation, Noshiro Chitose would not blink an eye.

Ok…

perhaps.

She is already an adult, and adults have their own way of dealing with problems.

"Deng, Su Shi."

"Ok?"

"Well?"

"I say..." Chitose cleared his throat, "How about we live together in the future, apply to the same university, and live together for the rest of our lives."

Deng covered his mouth in disbelief, while Su Shi expressed his emotions directly:

"Eh!"

It was almost like a marriage proposal.

But how can you propose to two people at the same time?

"Well, I really enjoy every day with you. I think if one day I couldn't see you, even for a minute, I would be sad and depressed and regretful for the rest of my life."

"Xiao Sui, you are so sweet-talking..." Deng muttered softly, impressed by Qian Sui's skillful head rubbing skills.

"So, what about Lixi? Will Xiaosui also ask Lixi to live together in the future?"

"Oh, yes, I like you guys. I really, really want to be your best friends for life! I'll have a companion when I get old. Just thinking about it makes me feel like I can survive even the hard days ahead."

I lied to you.

Chitose Noshiro looked at the floor-to-ceiling glass window beside her, and the glass reflected the golden light in her eyes.

[I'm lying to you. We won't grow old, we won't die... I want you to be happy forever, I want you to stay young forever...]

"I will use the lifespan gained from repeated simulations to make everything I care about eternal. I will absolutely fight for this my entire life!"

"Why did Xiaosui suddenly say this?" Su Shi wanted to reach out and pick up the teacup, but found that her body was trembling because Qiansui's massage technique was too professional.

Any movement now would expose her plight.

"Because... well, I realized something recently."

Chitose was actually planning her daily life in her head, such as where to go and get married after graduating from high school.

Nagasaki Suyo's words instantly brought her back to her senses.

"I think I may need to shoulder more responsibilities."

I can't escape like the stupid Xiangzi or the small fry Xiaoai.

I am Chitose Noshiro. I can only die of exhaustion in the simulation, but I can't run away with my tail between my legs looking wronged and pitiful!

[Solve the girls' troubles and make everyone happy... I'm sorry for causing you suffering, the only thing I can do is promise you a better future.]

"Xiao Sui feels so heavy today."

"Don't you like it? Su Shishi."

“I didn’t say I didn’t like it…”

"Yeah, I like it too... Stop touching it, my hair is... frizzy."
