I won't be a loser.

Blinking and looking at the page in front of him, Xianren fell into deep thought and reflected on himself. Which website should he enter to find inspiration?

"Typing in those three letters felt so natural that I almost ignored them, thinking it was normal. I used to visit this website frequently, but I wasn't that proficient..."

Why did he log in to this website subconsciously and even click on this page so skillfully instead of looking at other normal content, such as an ordinary photo album? It wouldn't make him so conflicted now.

"Forget it, I've already clicked in, let's take a look at what new works there are."

Looking at the web page in front of him, which had already been opened, Xianren stopped thinking about other things and decided to start with these adult contents to see if he could find some inspiration.

It is hard to deny that he used to rely on watching these contents to be able to create those sensual works smoothly.

The first thing he saw were explicit titles like '18 years old, beautiful girl', and topics like 'A beautiful girl with a huge breast is raped by the most annoying store manager and falls into pleasure' and 'My husband is coming back soon... hurry up', which made Xianren feel bored and uninterested.

I clicked on one at random and looked at the price. It only costs 300 yen to watch the high-definition video online with a seven-day validity period, while downloading the normal quality video costs 590 yen and downloading the high-definition video costs 980 yen. It's really impressive.

"Most of them are fake covers, but the previews do have screenshots of the content..."

I clicked on the sample video and took a look at some of the content. I found that the content of the video I clicked on was not much different from the content in the screenshot. Surprisingly, it was not a cover scam?!

"That's really surprising. Is this the kind of thing where she conducts street interviews and then invites people to her house while her husband isn't home?"

After staring at the person on the cover for a while, Xianren hesitated for a moment and exited the page. It was indeed beautiful, but he still felt that this kind of subject matter was not interesting.

"It's more like these real-life videos have lost their meaning."

He slid the mouse wheel and looked from adult videos to adult games below, such as "Shinki Project", "The Star Refining Village Beyond the Sky", etc. He took a look and found that there were several games that he had not stopped operating at that time.

"O-oku... So there are adult games for women? I never paid much attention to it before, and I thought it was a game for a special group of people... Well, it's not impossible."

Below the adult game section are adult videos for a monthly subscription. For only 2800 yen per month, you can watch all the works in the category. The titles of the several works recommended on the homepage are quite interesting.

"take a look."

He clicked on one of the works whose cover looked interesting and played a sample. The moment he saw it, Xianren's mind went blank and goosebumps appeared all over his body. He opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at the video in front of him.

".......hiss!"

He gasped and quickly closed the playing sample. He couldn't stop shaking.

"I was careless and was misled by the previous work that didn't have a fraudulent cover. As expected, there are more works with fraudulent covers!"

Gritting his teeth, Xianren felt regret for his carelessness. He stopped looking at other works and continued to look at the adult comics area.

Compared to those live-action films that have to take the shooting costs into consideration, the content and plot of comics are freer and bolder, and the imagination is richer. Compared to adult images that are restricted for various reasons, comics like these can actually inspire greater inspiration for sages.

"From a purely setting perspective, the plots of some comics aren't much inferior to those serialized in boys' magazines. Some settings are even more interesting in short stories. Many cartoonists build their readership from these types of comics and then transition into boys' comics. Chasing the dream of becoming a cartoonist is a very difficult path. If you don't draw this kind of work, you'll probably starve to death before you even achieve fame."

"Inert liquid...does it mean inert liquid?"

I clicked on the page and looked at the introduction. It was about comics with liquid themes such as 'tears', 'sweat', 'spit', and 'O liquid'.

Staring at the comic book introduction in front of him for a long time, the wise man sitting in front of the computer couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He seemed to have never described this aspect in detail before, such as 'O liquid'...

"It's not that it can't be written. Well, since his girlfriend is already dead, it's normal for him to become mentally unstable. He's provoked and has twisted feelings towards his deceased girlfriend's shoes, socks, and other belongings. He does things that would seem perverted to normal people. It's a rather interesting development. It can highlight the protagonist's current psychological state from this aspect. At least it can give people the impression that 'this person is abnormal.'"

He took the notes on the desk and wrote something on them with a pen. Then he put the notes aside, exited the page, and continued to read other content.

I sat in front of the computer for about two hours. When my eyes were dry and I looked out the window, the wind and rain outside had not weakened at all and were still howling. I felt a little empty and lonely in the apartment. In such natural weather, I also felt that I was so insignificant.

"It's not lunchtime yet. I'm a little tired. I can put writing off until the afternoon. Right now, what else can I do..."

Despite such a severe storm, he had only contacted Itomori's family so far, and had not contacted anyone else. He then opened his address book and contacted the people he had a good relationship with one by one, asking about their situation.

The Kiyoura family has woken up, and Sakakino Academy has also informed Setsuna that she doesn't need to go to school today. As for Kiyoura Mai, it is obviously unlikely that she will go out to work today, so she will handle the work at home.

"Would you like to come to my house at noon?"

"Forget it with such a strong storm. I'm sure I'll get soaked if I go out, and it would be even more troublesome if I catch a cold. I have plenty of food in my apartment, so I won't bother you."

After hearing Qingpu Mai's question, he took a look at the wind and rain outside and rejected Qingpu Mai's suggestion.

In such strong winds and heavy rain, even with an umbrella you can't avoid getting wet. Once you catch a cold, it is quite difficult to go out and buy medicine. When I arrived in Tokyo, I did prepare some common cold medicines, but... there is no need to use them, right?

After chatting with Qingpu Mai for a while, and then chatting with Setsuna for a while, he hung up the phone.

Then it was Futaba Rio, Feng Xiaochun, Mito Yuka, and finally he asked about Saionji Sekai, communicated with her, and told her not to go out casually. Then he hung up the phone and looked at the time. It was already time for lunch.

"She has the shortest phone call time with Rio, and the longest with Saionji Sekai?"

After checking the call time, Xianren put his phone aside, walked to the refrigerator and started preparing his lunch.

"Let's cook a pot of rice and have udon noodles for lunch."

Although there is no power outage now, there is no guarantee that there will be any accidents in the future. Cooking a pot of white rice is simply for emergency use...

I spent most of the afternoon sitting at my desk, typing on my computer. Because of the preparations in the morning, I found a little inspiration, but I didn't feel stuck. I kept creating until it was supposed to be evening, then I stopped.

"It's night time now, but in this kind of weather, it doesn't make much difference whether it's day or night."

The rain kept falling. Looking at the streets outside that were soaked by the reflection of lights, Xianren, who had stayed in his apartment all day, simply prepared his dinner, took a hot bath, and lay down on his bed.

"I forgot to prepare the dehumidifier. The humidity in the house is a bit high. I don't feel comfortable lying down. If this kind of rain continues for a long time, people will get sick..."

With his eyes open, looking at the ceiling of his room, the sage silently thought about some random things. Unconsciously, he felt tired, closed his eyes, and quickly fell asleep...

The rain was a little lighter the next day, but it was still inconvenient to travel. The school did not notify us, so we continued to rest at home and repeated the same schedule as yesterday. Near noon, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Xianren, who was still sitting in front of his computer, was a little surprised when he heard the doorbell. In such heavy rain, someone would actually come out to his place.

After a simple filter of possible people, it seems that the only ones are the Qingpu family living next door, either Wu or Setsuna.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Moses, who was wet, standing at the door of his apartment with an umbrella and a plastic bag in his hand. I could vaguely see a lunch box in it.

"It's raining so hard... Come in first, I'll get you a towel."

Looking at the girl's wet body, her hair was wet by the rain, and water droplets were dripping from her forehead. The sage looked at the girl like this, and without waiting for her to speak, he pulled her into his room and closed the door.

He hurried into his bathroom, turned on the heater, filled it with hot water, took a towel, and came to the girl, covered her head with it, and wiped her hair and face.

"What are you doing here in such heavy rain?"

"Because I'm a little worried about the wise man, I prepared lunch for you."

She handed the lunch box to Xianren. Looking at the lunch box handed to him by the girl with both hands, Xianren sighed helplessly.

"I have some food here myself, so there's no need to prepare any. Go take a shower in the bathroom first. I've already got some hot water. Go in and take a shower, then soak in the tub for a while. Don't catch a cold."

After taking the lunch box handed to him by the girl, Xianren looked at the girl seriously and motioned her to go into the bathroom.

Facing the sage's solemn and serious expression, the girl who came in the rain watched the sage accept the lunch box, then obediently unbuttoned her clothes and entered the bathroom.

"Will you join us, sage?"

Cherry blossom season: 200. How many decibels are considered a nuisance to neighbors?

Hifumi Takimoto couldn't go to work. It had rained heavily all day yesterday, but there was no improvement today. The rain was still heavy. The company also notified everyone to work from home. She sat on the furry carpet, staring at the computer in front of her, but she couldn't calm down.

It’s been a long time, since noon, it’s been a long time!

At first she still felt a little shy, which made her blush, but now she was filled with shame and anger. She bit her lips, turned her head and stared at the wall beside her. Listening to the lewd music coming from next door, she felt particularly depressed.

“When…?”

I don't know when the neighbors will stop. I vaguely remember the person living next door. It seems to be the boy I met last time. He is still a high school student. He is obviously still a student, but...

"It doesn't sound like the voice in the video. They're definitely doing it... The doorbell rang at noon. It must be his girlfriend... She came in the pouring rain..."

Biting her lips, Takimoto Hifumi stood up, not wanting to continue working. She decided to take a break first, wait until the next door was quiet, and then focus on her work again. As for going to the next door to remind the other party to be quiet -

She can't.

Given her sense of shame, she couldn't go out and stop the other person in such a situation.

"I don't know if this will happen often in the future. What should I do, Sojiro..."

Holding up the hedgehog she raised, Takimoto Hifumi looked at Sojiro in her hands and couldn't help but sigh. She just hoped that the rain would end as soon as possible. Then, she could go out to work with peace of mind, at least she wouldn't have to suffer such torture during the day.

"It's already afternoon, and you're still together. Aren't you going home?"

The call came at three o'clock in the afternoon. Qingura Mai called Kento at home and asked when Setsuna would be home.

Xianren, who was already exhausted, was lying on the bed, his consciousness was hazy, and he was about to fall asleep while holding Shanna's warm body. Suddenly, a phone call made Xianren feel alert. At the same time, even Shanna, who was already asleep, opened his eyes in a daze.

'Change the ringtone, later.'

When the call was connected, I heard Qing Pu Mai's question.

"She got soaked in a moment and is resting here with me now. It's raining so hard outside, and I'm afraid she'll get soaked again if she goes out. Anyway, there's nothing else to do, so she can just stay here and rest for a while."

"Does this count as leaving your lonely old mother at home and living with your boyfriend?"

"I guess so. There's no way to deny it."

"I want to come, too."

"It's raining heavily outside, and there's no room for three people in my room. Forget it. I'll take her home when the rain stops."

"It's been a while since I've been alone. This is a rare opportunity, so there's nothing wrong with you two being alone. Let's leave it at that for now."

"Ah."

He looked down at the girl in his arms. The girl buried in his arms did not react at all to his conversation with Qingpu Mai. Xianren also put his mobile phone aside and continued to close his eyes to rest.

By the evening, the rain finally subsided a little, but it only turned from a rainstorm to a downpour. The two people woke up near dusk, lay in bed for a while, and then got up together to prepare dinner.

During this time, Qingpu Mai called again and asked whether Setsuna would go home at night. After receiving a negative answer, Qingpu Mai quickly hung up the phone.

"are you angry?"

"do not know."

I guess there may be some, but it’s not easy to go out now.

"Let's prepare dinner first. There are still ingredients in the refrigerator... Never mind, I'll do it alone. If you get bored, you can look at the computer for a while."

"Ah."

I watched as Xianren walked to the refrigerator, picked up the ingredients, and prepared dinner.

Since Qingpu Shanna couldn't help, he didn't bother Xianren anymore. He sat down at the desk quietly and opened the computer in front of him.

I opened the browser and was just thinking about which website I should visit. I was also a little curious about what websites Xianren usually visited, so I casually opened the browser history page and saw the full content -

Keywords like 'brother and sister', 'mature woman', 'illicit', 'immoral', etc., caused a brief blank in Shanna's mind.

She turned back carefully and glanced in the direction of Xianren, and found that Xianren was preparing dinner at the moment and didn't notice what she was doing. This made Shanshan feel relieved a little, but her heart was still full of complicated emotions.

She quickly closed the history page and sat silently in front of the computer. For a moment, she didn't know what to do...

"Just now, did you see it wrong?"

However, she saw it clearly with her eyes. She opened the history page again, took another look, and confirmed that she was not mistaken. She quickly closed the page.

The expression on her face became increasingly silent. She sat in front of the computer dejectedly, carefully recalling her time with Xianren. Recalling the interactions between Xianren and Sanye, she had some bad guesses in her heart, but she couldn't ignore them.

Why...why would a wise man look at these things?

Strong doubts grew and lingered in her heart, but she could not muster up the courage to ask the wise man.

After a moment, she bit her lips and silently clicked on some familiar websites, pretending to be reading the contents of those websites very seriously, but in her heart she kept thinking about the question just now.

"Actually, does Xianren prefer that style? If it were a younger sister, he would like it even more... So... But I'm not a younger sister... We're not related by marriage..."

After taking a look at the historical records of the wise man, I was greatly shocked and instantly fell into a state of being unable to think.

When the wise man prepared dinner and called Setsuna to have dinner together, the girl who was sitting at the desk deep in thought was unable to come back to her senses for a while. It was only when the wise man walked to her side and gently pushed her shoulder that the girl woke up from her confusion and entanglement.

She looked at Xianren in astonishment, staring at him blankly for a long time.

"What's wrong?"

The wise man who was stared at by her didn't know what was going on for a moment and couldn't help but ask.

"How do you view your family, sage?"

The wise man sat down and just picked up the chopsticks when he heard Shanna's sudden question. He was stunned for a moment and looked at the girl in front of him. He found that the girl's expression did not seem to care much, but her eyes were fixed on him, waiting for his answer.

"Family, my family, they are the treasures of a lifetime, right?"

Recalling the time when he was decadent, he saw Mitsuha who came to Tokyo to take care of him. He had no complaints about his sister. He thought her occasional mischief was quite cute.

"like?"
