[Bound player: Nan Youxi]
[Number of simulations remaining: 2 (Number of simulations can be restored over time, or acquired actively)]
[Possible objects to simulate: Minami Ruri, Minami Kokoa, Minami Kobato, Asano Nao]
Minami Yuuki chose Asano Nao.
[Do you want to load the Sims you have experienced?]
Load the last Sims, with the time selected before the last option.
Minami Yuxi did not choose to start over because he had something he wanted to verify. He wanted to understand why Asano Nao died of depression when their family of three lived a happy life in the previous simulation.
The last option in the simulator must be an important dividing point. Perhaps choosing another option and trying it would help him figure out Nao Asano's situation.
[Simulation starts]
[Number of simulations remaining: 1]
[Simulation object: Nao Asano]
[Loading time: end of the passionate love period]
[Previous story: You used comics as an opportunity to get in touch with Nao Asano and catered to her preferences. Your relationship went smoothly, and when you were 22 years old, you got married. But Nao Asano's social phobia made your family unhappy. On New Year's Eve of that year, you took your wife back to your hometown, and your wife's efforts finally won the blessing of your family.]
Nan Youxi looked at the options.
[Your family wants you to stay in Ino County, stay with them, you choose...]
[1. Stay in Ino Prefecture; 2. Go back to Misaki City; 3. Go abroad; 4. Free simulation]
Before, he considered Nao Asano's personality and thought that going back to Misaki and continuing to live in a world of two with Nao Asano was the right choice.
Now, he chose one.
[You listened to your family's advice and stayed in Ino County. ]
[Father, mother and sister are all very happy. Your parents cleaned up the house left by your grandmother and gave it to you to live in. They know that you should be given your own space, and only invite you to have a meal together on weekends, which makes you feel relieved.]
[After moving into the new house, Asano Nao was a little uncomfortable, and you comforted her. After knowing that you were back, your childhood friends came to see you, and after discussing with Asano Nao, you entertained them at home.]
Nan Youxi closed her eyes and looked at the memory scene in her mind.
It was pitch black outside the window. My grandmother's house was on the edge of the city, and not far away were farmlands. The moonlight shone on the farmlands, but it could not illuminate the view, only a undulating black shadow.
The tatami-mat living room was brightly lit, with a long table in the middle where Minami Youxi and five childhood friends were sitting on the floor.
The heater was on in the room and the atmosphere was as hot as the temperature.
Minami Nao brought the last dish and walked over to Minami Yuki, asking her to sit down.
Nan Youxi reached out, wrapped his arms around his wife's slender waist, pulled her into his arms, rested his chin on her shoulder, and sniffed the scent of her hair.
Friends burst into laughter, praising the delicious food and Minami Nao's beauty.
Minami Nao is very graceful and polite when talking to her friends.
[Asano Nao behaves like an ordinary little girl, making you mistakenly believe that she has overcome her spiritual trauma. ]
[You found a job through your father's connections, working as a salesperson in a local furniture store. Your looks and conversation skills made you easily the sales champion, and you received a good salary.]
[You are very restrained. Apart from necessary social activities, you always go home on time after get off work every day to accompany your wife.]
Nan Youxi looked at the words and felt the memories in her mind.
[You never attend parties, and your colleagues complain about it, so you decide to host them at home, just like you did with your childhood friends. This way, you attend the party without being separated from your beautiful wife.]
[Asano Nao agreed, and in the evening, you went out together to buy the ingredients for the party.]
[The party went smoothly, except that the last dish was a little salty, nothing else went wrong. Your colleagues left satisfied, and you saw them off. When you returned home, you didn't see Nao Asano.]
[Not at the messy table, not in the kitchen that still smells of smoke, not at the sink, not in the toilet, and not in the bedroom.]
[You searched the house and opened the bedroom closet, only to find your wife, who had just been smiling and welcoming colleagues, curled up inside and crying.]
[You understand, this was just my wife's disguise. She is still the fragile person who gets scared and nervous when she sees others.]
The light from the bedroom shone through the gap in the closet that Minami Yuuki opened, onto Minami Nao's face, and tears were glistening in her eyes.
She curled up in the corner like a frightened hamster. She didn't want Nan Youxi to see her like this, and she didn't want to make her husband worry.
"I'm sorry." Minami Nao covered her face.
[You took her out of the closet, laid her on the bed, kissed her cheek, and wiped away her crystal tears with your dry lips. You said nothing.]
[Against the opposition of your parents and sister, and despite the requests of your colleagues, you quit your job. You didn't tell Asano Nao, but only said that the company was renovating and had a holiday for a while.]
[Asano Nao soon realized the truth. She advised you to go back, but you said that you were too tired from work and wanted to lie down and let her support you.]
[Asano Nao smiled less. There was no stranger in the house, you were always by her side, she was no longer stimulated by the outside world, but at the same time, guilt entangled her again. If it weren't for her, you should have lived a healthy life.]
[You realize that it's not just outsiders that make Asano Nao nervous, but anything that makes her feel like she's a burden to you also torments her mentally.]
Pausing the simulation, Nan Youxi pinched the bridge of her nose.
So that's how it is. The tragedy of the last simulation can be explained.
In The Sims, the child he and Nao Asano have is the fruit of their love, but also a death warrant for Nao Asano, a mirror that is too young to cover up its own reflection. Through the child, Nao Asano sees herself as a wife and a mother who is unqualified every day.
This left her mentally exhausted and she died of depression.
In other words, if you want to have a happy ending, you can't have children. This is something that you should know in your Sims.
Nan Youxi continued to look at the panel.
[You left Ino County and returned to Misaki City with her. ]
[Ino County has too many friends and relatives. It is difficult to refuse their visits. However, their visits again and again hurt Asano Nao.]
[In Misaki City, you can stay together on an isolated island with no third party. Asano Nao's spirit gradually recovered. ]
[You secretly used contraceptive methods. You forged a certificate of infertility and showed extreme loss and depression.]
[Your plan was successful. In order to take care of your feelings, Asano Nao never mentioned the child again.]
[You entered middle age and old age in the Asano family. Except for family funerals, Asano Nao never left the house again.]
[You are very happy, but there are also some regrets. ]
[The year you realized you were about to lose the ability to take care of yourself, you chose a day when the cherry blossoms were in bloom and ended your lives.]
[Simulation ends]
