I, enter the zero world, change the ending

The answer is of course no.

"I'm a time traveler who knows the plot in advance and has a God's perspective." Zhiyao muttered to herself as she looked at the starry sky. "It's a rare opportunity to come to this world and get to know her. How can I just watch her disappear?"

You have to do something at all.

Zero's ending, this time written by himself.

People need to make preparations before planning big things. Recalling that he hadn't smoked for several days, Zhiyao immediately ran out of the park and found a tobacco vending machine on the side of the road. The prices marked on it ranged from 400 to 700. Zhiyao weighed his own strength and chose the 400 one, plus a lighter.

Returning to the park lounge chair, Zhiyao tore open the package and lit a cigarette. As the nicotine stimulated his brain nerves and made him mentally excited, he exhaled the smoke and began to trace the source.

First of all.

The reason why Crimson disappeared was because of the birth of Yozumiko——Hinasaki Fukaba.

I'm sorry, Shenyu, if you want to sentence Shenhong to death, I can only sentence you to death in advance. Please don't be born.

Zhiyao crossed out the face of Hinasaki Fukaha in his mind.

then.

She got pregnant with Yozumiko because she saw Hinasaki Mafuyu, whom she missed too much, in the Sleeping House three years later.

Sorry, Kurosawa Rei, you and Amagura Hotaru go to the Sleeping House together, Shenhong won’t accompany you.

Zhiyao crossed out the face of Kurosawa Rei in his mind again.

So we come to the final conclusion——Hinasaki Mafuyu, the source of all evil, must survive.

Everything will be fine if we survive. Please also let me do the orthopedic taboos as two living people in the world of the living. At least I won’t lose my life.

There is also another way. Hinasaki Mafuyu still dies, and Crimson will be handed over to me from now on.

However, the moment this thought emerged, Zhiyao ruthlessly rejected it. At twenty, he had no experience in relationships, not even the best at flirting. Even without competition, there was no guarantee he could successfully pursue Shenhong, let alone change the mindset of someone with a serious brother complex. Even if he succeeded by chance, it wouldn't mean he could rest easy. Shenhong had already managed to catch up with the ghost of Zhendong three years after his death and impregnate her.

Even if you don't go to the sleeping house, you might see Manfuyu's ghost somewhere else one day, and then the hat of forgiveness will fly on your head.

By the way, speaking of which...

When did Crimson go to Himuro's residence?

Zhiyao only completed the game twice five years ago. She can no longer remember the details, but she knows it was at night.

Wait, at night...

It's night time now, could they have already set off?!

Instantly, Zhiyao's eyes widened in horror, his heart pounding. He desperately wanted to know Shenhong's exact address, but he had no information other than her name and school name. He cursed himself for his bad mouth and forced himself to calm down, deciding to wait at the school gate after daybreak.

Please don't set off yet, please!

At that moment, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, praying constantly in his heart. There were still two hours before dawn, and he was almost getting angry.

……

It was half past seven, the peak time for students to enter the school. In the endless stream of people, Zhiyao stood in the middle of the road against the tide, keeping her eyes open as wide as possible for fear of missing anything.

At this time, a girl's voice sounded from behind.

“Please, please…”

Zhiyao subconsciously turned around and saw a girl wearing glasses and with two pigtails in front of her. The girl shrunk her neck and looked like she wanted to communicate but was hesitant to move forward.

"I have something to say!"

Because he was worried about Shenhong, Zhiyao just glanced at her lightly and then looked away.

"I remember you...you and Hinasaki-san..."

Speaking of Hinasaki, Hinasaki arrived and headed towards the crowd () and saw Shenhong's figure, walking slowly towards this side. When the person he had been thinking about appeared, Zhiyao felt relieved instantly, and directly ignored the female student with glasses, and trotted towards Shenhong excitedly.

"Hey, good morning, Hinasaki."

I only knew that this person would come today but I never expected him to come so early in the morning. Shenhong looked at Zhiyao blankly, and was stunned for a few seconds before she remembered to respond to the greeting.

"Good morning..."

Crimson said, covering her mouth and yawning.

She didn't sleep well last night. She had a nightmare in which she saw her brother running fast in the darkness, with several hideous-looking undead chasing him.

"It's great that you showed up, hehe."

"Hmm?" Shenhong rubbed his heavy eyelids. "Why did you come here so early in the morning? What do you want from me?"

"Nothing, just wanted to make sure you were still there."

Shenhong was stunned for a moment.

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing, just go to school quickly. I'll come find you after lunch."

After saying that, Zhiyao left quickly and was soon drowned in the crowd. Shenhong tilted her head and looked at the direction he left, her mind full of question marks.

……

At noon, as the bell rang, the students dispersed and took out their lunch boxes from the drawers. Shenhong left her seat and prepared to go to the rooftop to eat like yesterday. When she reached the classroom door, she heard Zhiyao say that she would come over at noon, so she stood at the door waiting. After a while, she saw the man walking up the stairs.

"Have you eaten?" Shenhong asked casually.

"Let's eat later."

Arriving at the rooftop, they settled into the same quiet corner where they had dined the previous day. Since they were a bit more familiar with each other, they chatted casually, but that was just the surface; in reality, both of them were a bit distracted. Shenhong kept wondering if last night's dream was some kind of omen, while Zhiyao wanted to ask directly when he planned to go to the Himuro residence.

Unfortunately, he couldn't make up his mind.

The reason was that this morning he happened to think of the butterfly effect. If he hadn't been there, the plot might have developed as planned. Now that he was there, if he asked rashly, would it be possible that things would deviate from their original trajectory and become out of control?

In the end, Zhiyao decided to hold back and wait for an opportunity to act.

After meal.

"Let's go first. Come back after school."

"Hey, are you coming again?"

After school.

"Hey, Hinasaki, I want to take you home today, you see..."

"No." Shen Hong stopped and refused flatly, "Don't you think you're being a little too demanding?"

"No, I just..."

"You're bringing this up after only knowing each other for two days. I'm a little suspicious of your motives."

Shenhong's face looked unhappy when she said this. Zhiyao had to shut up for fear of angering her and alienating her.

Of course, he did not give up immediately. After they parted, he secretly turned back and followed from a distance. However, he still underestimated Shenhong's vigilance, so the tracking process was not very smooth and he was almost discovered once.

Although the process was full of twists and turns, I finally got the address as I wished.

Everything remained the same on the second and third days. After dark, Zhiyao would lie dormant near Shenhong's house to observe whether there were any lights on. After turning off the lights at 11 o'clock, he would continue to wait until 1 o'clock in the morning. Only when he was sure that Shenhong would not come out would he go to the public toilet to wash up and return to the park to sleep.

On the fourth day, there was nothing unusual in the morning and at noon, but after school in the afternoon, Shenhong did not come out of the school.

Chapter 10: [Need to find a helper]

Normally, Shenhong would appear at 4:15 at the latest, but today, she was still nowhere to be seen at 4:30. Suddenly, Zhiyao had a bad premonition.

Did what was supposed to come really come?

To confirm the situation, he rushed all the way to Shenhong's class and saw only a few students cleaning. To further confirm, he walked to Shenhong's desk and found that the drawer was empty.

"Excuse me……"

A soft female voice came from behind. Turning around, Zhiyao felt that the other person looked familiar.

After a rough recollection, he remembered that it was the girl with pigtails and glasses who greeted him that morning.

"Are you... here to look for Hinasaki-san?" the girl with glasses continued in a soft voice.

Zhiyao nodded and asked impatiently:

"What about her?"

"As for Hinasaki-san, she skipped class this afternoon...she didn't come to the last period."

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhiyao's mind roared, as if struck by a bolt from the blue. Then, gradually, the image of Shenhong standing at the entrance of the Himuro residence emerged in his mind. Combined with the information that Shenhong arrived at the Himuro residence at night, and by calculating the time it took him to reach the city from the forest that morning, he was already 90% certain, even if he couldn't be 100%.

Seeing Zhiyao standing there in a daze with a look of heavy heart, the girl with glasses couldn't help but feel curious.

"Hinasaki-san, what's wrong?"

"Tsk."

Not in the mood to pay attention to the girl with glasses, Zhiyao walked straight out of the classroom. At this time, he felt a slight headache.

The fundamental reason is that apart from keeping in mind the premise that Hinasaki Mafuyu must survive, no other preparations were made.

First of all, Manfuyu voluntarily stayed at the Gate of the Underworld. Her determination was so strong that she was even willing to abandon her sister who had depended on her for many years. Therefore, it would not work to just rely on dialogue and persuasion. More brutal and direct means must be used, such as beating her up and forcibly dragging her out of that place. To achieve this goal, the weak and delicate Crimson certainly does not have this ability, so I am the undisputed candidate. However, this will face a problem——I must enter the Himuro residence in person.

To be honest, Zhiyao doesn't dare to go into that place.

In the final analysis, he was just an ordinary person who couldn't see spirits. Although he was a time traveler, he firmly believed that he was definitely not the son of the plane. Rashly going to the Himuro residence was tantamount to suicide. The ending would most likely be the same as that of the Gaofeng trio. Moreover, every time he thought of what happened in the forest on the night he traveled through time, he was instinctively scared. Unless he had to, he would try not to get close to that place.

Hey, why didn’t I stop Hinasaki Mafuyu at that time? That girl really hurt people. She was so determined to go in even after I advised her not to.

Not only did he not want to live, but he also made Shenhong worry about the consequences, and now he is very irritable.

Sighing helplessly, Zhiyao looked depressed and left the school with heavy steps.

By the window on the third floor, the girl with glasses silently watched his departing back, unable to stop wondering in her heart.

……

Zhiyao walked aimlessly along the road, his thoughts never stopping for a moment. As he walked, a sudden flash of inspiration came to his mind.

Yes, if you don’t dare to go in alone, why not find a helper?

Aren’t there many protagonists from other works?

For example, the Amakura sisters, Kurosawa Rei, Mizunotsuki Ryuka, and Fukata Yuri... This doesn't seem to work. It's only 86, and it's probably just a fertilized egg.

No matter what, each of them has the ability to go to the ancient house alone, fight against all obstacles and survive all kinds of hardships surrounded by evil spirits.

With their help, there is no need to worry about not getting a good ending.

The problem was finally solved. For a moment, Zhiyao felt like an explorer who had successfully climbed to the top of a mountain. Joy came from the inside out. Unfortunately, his happiness did not last more than three seconds, and he was kicked back to the bottom of the valley by the cruel reality.

He had no idea where they were. It was impossible for them to meet by chance again like they did with Shinku Manfuyu. Besides, they didn't even know him, so the chance of them helping him was almost zero.

Well, it seems like a fantasy.

Zhiyao suppressed the thought and habitually raised her left index finger to gently press her temple. Then, the image of a male character appeared in her mind.

Oh my god, I actually forgot about this guy.

Time was so urgent that there was no time to waste. Zhiyao started running towards the police station.

"Hey, why are you here again?" Seeing Zhiyao coming, Fujisaki Mihui, who was standing at the door of the police station, took the initiative to come over and say hello, "I hope you haven't encountered any trouble this time, puff puff puff."

Skipping the greetings, Zhiyao went straight to the point, "Please help me find someone's information."

"Who?"

Zhiyao calmed down and said, "Aso Yuu."

Aso Yuu, Rei Kurosawa's fiancé, and Hinasaki Mafuyu's colleague and friend. After the Himuro residence incident, he's been helping investigate Mafuyu's case and taking good care of Shinku. Zhiyao considers him a very loyal person. It's likely that this person arranged for Shinku to go to Kurosawa Rei's place and live with her, likely because he worried that she'd feel lonely living alone after losing her brother.

As long as you tell him that Mafuyu needs help, this person will definitely not refuse, and he is a descendant of Kunihiko Aso and may have an exorcism camera at home.

There is simply no one more suitable than him.

"Aso Yuu..." Fujisaki's eyes rolled around, and he slapped Zhiyao's arm lightly. "I said, how can I investigate with just a name? Also, you have to tell me why you want to investigate this person."

"Of course I know that!" Zhiyao said impatiently. "This person works at a magazine or something like that. Just find out how many newspapers and magazines there are in this city, and then verify the internal personnel list. As for the reason, I can only say that this is very important. Please trust me."
