[Ibuki Yuko expressed her gratitude to you for saving her in time, but you did not see any trace of fear or relief on the girl's face.]
[People on the roadside came up to you and asked about your situation. You and Ibuki Yuko thanked them politely and turned to leave.]
[You look at the girl's back. Even after such a disaster, she still has a calm look and steady steps.]
Memory scenes appear.
Minami Youxi followed Ibuki Yuko into the subway entrance. The summer heat was blocked outside, and the cool breeze from the air conditioner blew on their bodies, making them breathe a sigh of relief.
"Did I ruin my senior's plan?" Nan Youxi took two quick steps to the girl's side and looked down at her.
"I don't understand what you're talking about." Ibuki Yuko held the shoulder strap of her canvas backpack.
She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, and her bare arms were white and slender, like ivory porcelain, beautiful yet fragile.
"Senior, you didn't want to avoid the truck at all, right?" Nan Youxi asked.
Ibuki Yuko stopped and raised her head. The white mask covered half of her face. The pair of eyes above the mask were shining as she stared at Minami Youxi.
"It's a secret." She lowered her head and continued walking forward.
Nan Youxi followed her steps: "Since it's a secret, you don't want others to know it, right? Can I use this to threaten you?"
"No." The girl replied calmly. Even such a threatening statement could not affect her elegance. Her elegance was like armor.
"Eh? I was thinking, 'If you don't date me, I'll spread the word'!"
“No one will believe you.”
The girl swiped her subway card, the gate made a cold beeping sound, and the plastic baffle opened, then closed after the girl passed, blocking Nan Youxi.
Nan Youxi also swiped her card and followed the girl.
"This is indeed a problem. If no one believes it, then it cannot be used as a threat. There must be evidence. There should be surveillance cameras at the intersection, right? But the surveillance can only capture the senior sister's appearance, not her inner thoughts. The senior sister just needs to insist that she was frightened."
He talked to himself and observed Ibuki Yuko's expression. The girl did not respond to the topic.
"I think there's one more thing we need to clarify," he grabbed Ibuki Yuko's wrist, "Senior, you just went with the flow, right? You didn't run in front of the truck on your own initiative, did you?"
The two stood in the middle of the subway platform, the cool colors of the floor and wall tiles enveloping them.
"Who knows?" Ibuki Yuko broke free from his hand and continued to move forward.
She did not look back at Nan Youxi, but Nan Youxi seemed to see a faint smile on her lips from her words. This was the first time that the girl spoke from her heart, but this sincerity, which was spoken casually without any emotional struggle, also became a part of her elegance, a chain and a scale on the armor of resistance.
This petite senior might have even bigger problems than Nao Asano.
I'm in trouble.
[You asked Ibuki Yuko the truth, and the girl tacitly agreed with your guess. You then asked her if she would take the initiative to go to the other side of the world, and she told you that she didn't know.]
"It's troublesome." Nan Youxi in real life rubbed his forehead.
It was okay that there was a scaredy-cat before, but why is there another problem girl this time!
It’s easy to deal with a shy little wild cat. As long as you provide her with a comfortable environment and a reasonable distance, she can grow up healthily.
But how to raise a world-weary Persian cat? It is elegant, quiet, and not afraid of people, but this elegance is a dead elegance, an elegance that no longer cares about anything in the world. The elegance that arises from this is an evening dress made of death.
How can we tear off the girl's elegance and touch her heart
I’m too lazy to think about it, just trust your own wisdom in the Sims!
Stopping her thoughts on the direction of The Sims, Nan Youxi reviewed The Sims as a spectator and sighed.
"No wonder she was indifferent to my advances and ignored my beauty. It turns out that it's not my problem, but hers. Even if a truck hit her, she would remain calm, let alone me? Although I don't want to admit it, my beauty still remains at the level of the human world and is a part of the human world, while her heart is already on the edge of the human world and is about to leave it."
However, to obtain all attribute points, he needs to work hard in the Sims. What kind of life should he accomplish to increase his charm
Become an artist? Become a model
Speaking of which, in this simulation, he has not yet determined his career.
Looking at Ibuki Yuko's appearance, I'm afraid he won't be able to live his life in peace.
Nan Youxi continued the simulation.
[Back at the apartment, you think about your next plan and decide...]
[1. "Death is like the wind, and I am the windbreaker."]
[2. "Death is like the wind, and I have a shelter."]
[3. "Honoka is only in her thirties, she can still have children."]
[4. Free simulation]
Just when I was thinking about trusting my own wisdom in the Sims, here comes the option.
Now I have to think for myself.
Option one is to stay by Ibuki Yuko's side and stop her when she gets upset.
Option two is to find a place to control Yuko Ibuki, not allowing her to go out, and not giving her the chance to get close to death.
Option three is to work hard with Honoka, give up the big trumpet, practice the small trumpet, and give birth to a little Yuko.
First, rule out option three.
Then, it’s a matter of choosing between one and two.
One is softer and just tracks, the other is more aggressive and controls directly.
Maybe option 2 is better. Ibuki Yuko is already terminally ill, and now is the time to give her a strong dose of medicine.
However, he had no experience in imprisoning others, but he had been imprisoned by a woman for a period of time.
The past was too hard to recall. Nan Youxi shook off the memories in her mind and focused her attention back on the options.
If Ibuki Yuko is locked up, first Ibuki Honoka will know, and then the school will find out.
As for Honoka, as long as he begged, she would not interfere, but the school...
What to choose
Nan Youxi hesitated for a moment and clicked on the option.
[You decide to keep Ibuki Yuko around you, to prevent her from getting upset, but also to get close to her and try to touch her heart.]
He chose to imprison Ibuki Yuko, not out of consideration for taking drastic measures. In fact, he felt that this was a bad option that would lead to bad consequences.
But - I can always re-simulate, so it’s okay to be willful once in a while!
Option 2 is so tempting! How could anyone give up this option
Option three would actually be quite interesting if Honoka kept herself clean.
Moreover, although option two will most likely lead to bad consequences, this drastic measure will also allow him to get closer to Ibuki Yuko's heart and peek into the hidden part of her heart!
