Tokyo: Simulation Begins with the Big Sister Next Door

He glanced at the time, then got up and went back to the classroom.

It's time to start the simulation.

Chapter 79, Section 77: Sayaka Mina: He said he would marry me.

"Let's start the simulation."

An Zeliang leaned back in his chair, lowered his head slightly, and closed his eyes, appearing to outsiders to be in a state of rest and relaxation.

Then, he entered simulation mode.

The system is now much more advanced after the upgrade; the options can be projected directly into his mind, so he doesn't need to see them with his eyes.

Please select your personality type for this career development.

[Option 1, Resourceful: Possesses ample wisdom and numerous strategies. Intelligent and adept at planning and strategizing.]

[Option 2, No merchant is honest: As a merchant, how can you make money without being cunning?]

[Option 3, Single-minded: Resist temptation and be single-minded]

[Option 4, Lazy and gluttonous: Enjoys good food and drink, cannot endure hardship or work hard]

An Zeliang looked at the four options and found that there was no option to do whatever he wanted, nor was there a new personality to be created.

Originally, he was thinking that if he could refresh the list and get the "do whatever you want" personality, he would choose it once to gain some criminal experience, which he could use to deduce criminals in real life.

Since we can't do whatever we want, let's look at other options.

Since "resourceful" has already been selected, repeating the selection is not recommended as it would have little effect.

"No merchant is honest," that's true.

I chose this path before; I have a personality that's focused solely on making money.

If you're single-minded, you have two paths: studying and romance. However, if you choose the studying path, your resourceful personality has already earned you admission to the University of Tokyo, so your options for single-mindedness are much fewer.

Moreover, three years of simulation time wouldn't be enough to graduate from university; it would probably end halfway through again, which isn't ideal, because Anze Liang doesn't like stories without endings.

As for those who are lazy and gluttonous, let's pass on them!

Once I can be lazy and gluttonous in real life, I'll choose to be lazy and gluttonous in the simulation.

With this in mind, An Zeliang ultimately chose the option that "no merchant is honest."

The previous "no merchant is honest" simulation lasted one year, but this time it's three years. Plus, An Zeliang has acquired some new skills, so his character is sure to have a different future.

then.

The simulation begins.

You have chosen "No merchant is honest," and you will simulate the scenario based on your current personality.

Today is Monday. You're in class this afternoon, feeling bored, and you're gazing out the window, lost in thought.

You're thinking to yourself that you're wasting your precious time in class. You've already learned everything the teacher teaches; you could even tutor a struggling teacher and teach them how to study.

You feel that attending classes is useless, so you think about it and realize you should do something useful. For example, become the richest person in Tokyo, or the richest person in Japan.

Do you believe that, given your abilities, you could become Japan's richest person, or even the world's richest person, in no time?

However, before becoming the richest person, you'll need a substantial amount of start-up capital...

You need to figure out where the funding will come from.

As for asking your family for money, it's really not worth it. After all, your family's money will eventually be yours; only an idiot would use their own money to start a business.

You've decided to start a business using other people's money.

So, after thinking about it for an afternoon, you came up with a rough plan and started raising funds.

[You first set your sights on Sayana, who sits at the next table.]

The next day, during PE class, you showcased your athletic talent, attracting the attention of many students. They were amazed by your athletic ability and believed you were destined to win the sports meet.

[Saya's gaze was also drawn to you]

After class, you found Saya and invited her to have lunch with you in the cafeteria.

Saya Mina had brought her own lunch, but after hearing your invitation, she secretly hid it in her backpack and went to the cafeteria with you.

[No one had ever invited her to lunch before, and you were the first person to do so, so Sayaka was very happy and considered you a friend.]

After finishing the meal, Sayaka paid the bill.

In the following days, you showcased your athletic talent at school, letting the students know you were physically fit. You also frequently invited Saya to lunch and offered her academic guidance.

Saya Mina considers you a close friend and generously helps you settle your bill every day.

You felt your relationship with Saya was strong enough, so you took advantage of her for free.

Saya Mina did not refuse, and at the same time, you began your plan.

[Because the sports meet is in two days, you want Saya Mina to open a betting pool at the school, allowing people to place bets on who will win, and you want to make a profit from it.]

Sayaka felt it wasn't right, but because it was your request, she did as you asked. She even asked everyone she knew.

Many students are willing to place bets, including many from your class who are betting on you to win.

[And you borrowed all of Saya's savings and then placed a huge bet on a skinny, weak boy to win.]

"This guy's up to no good,"

Upon witnessing the simulated personality's opening behavior, An Zeliang had a bad feeling.

He's up to no good again.

Although it's not the first or second time that the "no merchant is honest" personality has caused trouble, this time the plot starts from the school. So it shouldn't be like before, where he sells fake alcohol and drinks himself to death, right?

Thinking.

The simulation continues.

[You obtained the list of students participating in the school sports meet through Mr. Hayano's connections, and then disciplined each student on the list.]

You put laxatives in their drinks or put thumbtacks in their shoes to injure their feet and prevent them from participating fully in the sports meet.

A few days later, the sports meet began.

As expected, the match turned out to be an upset thanks to your behind-the-scenes manipulation.

You made a fortune by fixing matches.

[But the earnings weren't much.]

Instead of repaying Saya's money immediately, you used it to continue operating the scheme.

This time, you've set the stage for a math competition.

You first calculated the amount in the account and realized that the potential winnings from betting were much higher than the prize money for a math competition, so you started placing your bets.

You've screened a bunch of students and chosen the one with the worst grades to place a heavy bet on.

You yourself are a favorite, and there are other favorites as well, but you haven't placed any bets because you want to maximize your profits; you want an upset.

And so, you took action once again.

You went one by one to the math competition participants, physically assaulted them, or mentally tortured them, making it impossible for them to compete normally.

On the day the competition began, all the top players experienced physical and mental problems, resulting in subpar performances.

Your underhanded tactics successfully interfered with all the favorites, causing them, including yourself, to suffer unexpected defeats and significantly drop in scores, allowing the student who was initially least favored to win the championship.

You didn't receive a bonus, but you made a fortune from the opening sale.

Sayaka was amazed by your wisdom and admired your intelligence. Although she felt it was wrong, she still kept everything from you.

You calculated your earnings over this period, but you weren't very happy. The money you earned wasn't much; it was just enough to start a company, not even enough to buy servers.

"This guy has repeated his mistakes. He used the same tricks from the previous sports meet and math competition, and he even made a profit from it," An Zeliang complained.

It's true what they say, "No merchant is honest," they can link anything to making money.

However, the plot this time is different from before.

Yasuzawa Ryo was curious whether this personality could become Japan's richest person or something? If it succeeded, the points would probably be considerable.

The simulation continues.

[You're in a hotel room, embracing Saya, contemplating whether you could use her part-time job to make money, perhaps by building an empire of fallen girls...]

But upon further reflection, your cautious nature led you to abandon the idea. After all, while running a sex shop is considered a legitimate industry in Japan, you still didn't want to risk getting involved, as you could be arrested at any time, depending on whether someone would target you.

You don't want your lifeline to be controlled by others.

[You've thought about it for a long time and feel that live-streaming e-commerce is the right way to go, selling fake bird's nest as a benefit to your family, which is even more profitable than dealing with heroin. Why put yourself through such a risk?]

Thinking about this, you're even more certain about the business you want to pursue! The only problem is, you lack start-up capital.

[Keep an eye on Sayana and have her pay for today's hotel room first.]

The next day, the owner of the brothel called, urging you to go to work.

You thought about it and figured you could make a lot of money, so you went to work.

You work a regular job to earn money, while simultaneously selling counterfeit imported liquor and cigarettes to customers, making a profit from it.

In addition, you have partnerships with all the nearby hotels, and you'll receive a 20% commission whenever you bring guests to book a room.

[You also sold condoms; you can get 30% of the profit.]

This time, you've secured partnerships with every breakfast shop located downstairs from the hotel, and you'll receive a 20% rebate.

You also got Sayaka to help you promote it, which greatly increased your profit share.

After working part-time at a sex shop for a while, you found that the money was indeed quick, but it was extremely harmful to your health.

So, you decide to only do it for a short time, make some money, and then quit.

While working part-time, you also successfully established your own live-streaming company using the funds you had accumulated.

[Your company is short of live streamers, so you ask Saya to help you invite her colleagues to join your company and make them your first batch of female live streamers.]

Saya Mina went to great lengths, investing a lot of time, energy, and even money to invite most of her peers to join.
