It's just a small loophole and there won't be any trouble. The heroine column on the system panel clearly says "Toyokawa Shoko", not her.

"So that's how it is. I don't have any mango juice at home. Let me make you a cup of black tea."

If Ye Mu did not continue to worry about this issue, he would feel relieved. As expected, everything was still under his control.

Asano Yushin was a little restless, always feeling that there was a pair of eyes behind him constantly scanning him. Every time he turned around suddenly to find the source of that gaze, he could only see Wakaba Mutsu with his head down, elegantly brewing black tea.

Was he being too jumpy? He began to wonder if he was overly sensitive from playing simulators too much.

"Please take your time, be careful with the heat."

Ruoye Mu placed two cups of black tea on the table and gave him some instructions.

"Thank you."

Asano Yushin was not here to drink tea and chat about life with her. He wanted to strike a swift blow to Toyokawa Shoko, the sooner the better. By the time she recovered, it would be impossible to detect her.

"So, why did Asano-kun come to see me?"

"I have something I want to discuss with Toyokawa-san in person, but we're not close friends. I want to find her, but I don't know where she is right now, so I'd like to ask Miss Wakaba, her friend, for help."

He stated the purpose of his visit straight away and observed her expression. If she seemed embarrassed, he would have to say more.

"Just call me Mu. I don't like the name Miss Ruoye."

The other party seemed to have missed the point of his words and instead cared about the insignificant detail of the address.

Asano Yushin was shocked. The change of address is quite sensitive for Japanese people. She confused him. Is the relationship between them progressing too fast?

"Miss Mu." He chose a compromise address.

"Mu, Xiao Mu is fine too. Are you trying to make me unhappy on purpose, Asano-kun?" The other party still didn't let him go.

"Mu." Asano Yushin compromised. He had never thought that the difficulty would be here before coming.

If he could open the box with Miss Toyokawa, would he still have to be so humble? Damn it, wait until he can cash in on his skills and let the Wakaba and Toyokawa families see what the Asano family's big hands are!

"Well, I'll contact Xiaoxiang now."

Ruoye Mu's mouth corners curled up slightly, he was very satisfied with his address, took out his cell phone and called Xiangzi.

"Xiangzi, where are you now? There is someone... I want to talk to you about something."

When Wakaba Mutsu saw Asano Yushin making a hushing gesture, he quickly changed his words, and the conversation ended with a few exchanges.

She put down her phone and asked, "Why didn't Asano-kun let me reveal your existence? Your mind doesn't seem very pure."

"If you're worried, you can come with me. I just want to say a few words to her, nothing else. Of course, if it's not convenient for you, I can go alone."

Asano Yushin was playing hard to get. It would definitely be troublesome for him to do it alone. The management of large hospitals is very strict. One has to register his name and get permission before entering.

It would be difficult to get in without Wakaba Mu's help. He is not Spider-Man who fights crime in Tokyo and can fly into the hospital directly by using spider webs.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

She agreed readily without any hesitation.

Asano Yushin had no idea how many girls' struggles were hidden behind such a smooth process. He just thought that he was extremely charming, and the young landlord approached him as if he was using pure goods, without any rejection.

If Ye Mu's first reaction upon hearing that he was going to look for Xiangzi was to refuse, what would he do if his life was ruined again? Then, considering that the real Asano Yushin had little contact with the Toyokawa family, could he simply have discovered that Xiangzi was the culprit behind the Level 5 air conditioner and wanted to retaliate? But how did he know the flavor of his favorite juice? They were sharing the same dream as someone from another bed?

With all kinds of entanglements, she planned to accompany him to visit Aunt Fengchuan so that she could be prepared for the situation.

Ruoye Mu pushed him and urged: "Well, go out early."

"I haven't taken the coat off the sofa yet." Asano Yushin looked back at the coat lying alone on the sofa.

Ruoye Mu glanced at the coat and said, "Just come and get it when you come back!"

Asano Yushin was pushed to the shoe cabinet. He thought that testing Xiangzi was more important and he could deal with such trivial matters later.

Ruoye Mu quickly put on his little leather shoes and set off with him.

......

Shoko Toyokawa, who was waiting for her childhood sweetheart in the hospital, noticed something was wrong. Mu generally would not take the initiative to ask her questions. She was an extremely passive person and would not take any action without being driven by anyone.

Who else would come to see her besides Mu? Who would specifically ask Mu for her location? Mu doesn't have many contacts in her daily life who can talk to her and come to the hospital.

This person is Toyokawa Kiyoshi! What the hell, it's only Asano Yushin who lives across from Muzumi.

Two different footsteps sounded at the same time. Toyokawa Shoko took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and glanced at the "White Auspicious Form - Final Illusion Auspiciousness - Disguise (Advanced)" that was in effect.

It must not be exposed, it must not be admitted! Otherwise, that simulation would be like a chasm between the two of them. What she wanted was not family affection, but...

Two extremely familiar figures appeared at the corner. Her pupils dilated for a moment. It was indeed Asano Yushin!

The other person's eyes were immediately on her. Toyokawa Shoko didn't deliberately tense her body, and her skills helped her maintain the most natural posture and expression. She revealed a hint of confusion just right.

"Mu, who is he?"

Just as Wakaba Mutsu was about to answer, Asano Yushin beat him to the punch.

"I am an expert in lung cancer treatment, specializing in CAR-T technology!"

He said something that only Toyokawa Rondo in the audience was puzzled, and he carefully observed Toyokawa Shoko's facial expression, eyes and body movements.

Toyokawa Shoko tilted her head and asked, "What?"

The confusion and genuine expression in his eyes made him loosen his clenched fists. It was the first time that Asano Yushin felt so disappointed, as if his fist was hitting cotton.

I thought I was playing Dark Forest. If I didn't find the other party early, the other party would come to me early.

Is BYD constantly battling the air? Or is this simulation just too brutal, with a dynamic difficulty level where NPCs can evolve like Digimon?

He was splashed with a basin of cold water and did not notice Ruo Yemu's abnormality. She stayed there motionless, as if she was fixed in place by magic.

Toyokawa Sadaharu watched the conversation between the three people silently. He didn't understand what they were saying at all and thought it was some unique way of communication among young people of the new era.

"Nothing. Miss Ruoye said she wanted to visit her friend's mother. I was worried about her safety if she went out alone, so I accompanied her. Let me introduce myself. I'm Asano Yushin, a friend of Miss Ruoye."

Asano Yushin did not use the name that Mu requested, even if it would cause her dissatisfaction, and he did not want to be misunderstood and cause extra trouble.

"That's it."

Toyokawa Shoko nodded, looking as if she understood. The more innocent she acted, the more Asano Yushin felt that his efforts were in vain.

After all, the veteran actor was shocked by the talented contestant who had been immersed in the honeypot of the Toyokawa family for decades and played the role as naturally as breathing. The strategy that Asano Yushin racked his brains to come up with was not as good as the true emotion expressed by Toyokawa Shoko's impromptu performance.

It was just a waste of time and energy. He was almost hurt by anger, but he comforted himself that he could accept it.

Activating the second scenario, what if the opponent not only has simulated memory, but also a simulator? It wouldn't be surprising to obtain a skill that just restrains him.

If the other party is really the second type, it's a good thing that he has created a persona of a perfect father. Because of the simulation, not only will Shoko Toyokawa's impression of him change, but she will also question her true personality and be temporarily controlled for a while.

But he could have been sunk in Tokyo Bay in the previous simulations. Why didn’t he sink? Is it because Toyokawa Shoko is kind?

It's really possible, thought Asano Yushin, who had raised her for decades.

In any case, it was time to run away and change the heroine. The fact that reality was beginning to come into contact with the Toyokawa family was a very bad sign, and his instinct told him to run.

Although he despised Jiashu's judgment based on intuition, his intuition was not an ordinary intuition. It was a keen sense of smell formed by disgusting others tens of thousands of times in the game. If he felt that something bad was going to happen, then it really was going to happen.

Speedrunner Shoko Toyokawa ran away with an S rating, and he secretly made new plans.

[Can you really speedrun it?]

"No more than three times. No, two will be enough. One to simulate finding a new heroine, and one to speedrun directly."

[You're too confident!]

"What do you know? No one knows Toyokawa Shoko better than me. With the experience accumulated from so many simulations, I have full control over her level and depth. Moreover, I have raised her for so many years. No one knows a girl better than Ye Mu. I can even ask Ye Mu for assistance. Just wait for me to lock on to the new heroine I have chosen."

[You are already a mature host, and can actively seek out the heroine.]

"No, I simply don't want a pre-made simulation. I want to have some self-service simulation."

Asano Yushin was muttering at the back, and no one knew what Toyokawa Sadaharu was thinking. He also called him to visit Mizuho, ​​probably thinking that since he was already here.

Mizuho Toyokawa looked very mentally ill. When faced with a serious illness and the situation between life and death, a person's weakest side is always revealed. She forced an ugly smile at everyone.

"Father, Xiangzi, Mu, and who is this?"

"Asano Yushin, Mu's ordinary friend."

Mizuho Toyokawa nodded slightly without any particular reaction.

He doesn't recognize himself, Asano Yushin sighed a little. Even he couldn't completely avoid the influence of the long time. The person he fought for was like a stranger to him, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Toyokawa Mizuho asked, "Where's the report? Xiangzi, where is your father?"

"He said the company couldn't get out of this, and it was a critical day for him."

"Oh, I see." Disappointment was written all over her face. She looked out the window in silence.

Toyokawa Sadaharu, who was standing by, snorted heavily and said nothing.

"Xiangzi, call him, I want to talk to him."

"it is good."

Xiangzi called his father and handed the phone to her.

"Mizuho, ​​what's wrong?" The other party's tone was obviously impatient.

"Qing Gao, I'm sick." Toyokawa Mizuho seemed not to have heard it, and her voice was very soft.

"I'm sorry, Mizuho. Today is really crucial. Whether I can establish my authority depends on this staff meeting. I really can't get away. You don't want your father-in-law to look down on me all the time, right? I hope you can understand me. I will definitely come to see you when I have time! Besides, Xiangzi should go take care of you. Having her around is enough. I believe in our daughter."

He spoke quickly, throwing out a bunch of reasons to shut up Mizuho Toyokawa.

"Mr. Toyokawa, would you like to go to the izakaya after the meeting?"

"You pay the bill, and I'll come~" The noisy conversation squeezed into her ears, hurting her deeply.

After the phone call was disconnected, the atmosphere in the ward became extremely depressing.

"I really don't know why you're attracted to Feiwu. He has no ability, and he doesn't even know his own limitations. He doesn't even want to be a stay-at-home dad, but insists on tackling areas he's not good at. He can't handle both. You say his strength is sincerity, but doesn't that mean he has no strengths? He's even a weakness in business. I think Asano-kun has much more potential than him, and he has a promising future."

Toyokawa Sadaharu finally found the opportunity and criticized his daughter for choosing a "good" husband on impulse despite all advice.

They are not a good match and have low abilities. Now, he can't even take care of his family. That's pure and innocent.

As long as Toyokawa Kiyoshi stayed in the Toyokawa family, he felt like there was a thorn in his heart. Everyone was laughing at his son-in-law, but his son-in-law was really funny.

"Look, look, you're upset and crying now. I'm leaving now, Xiangzi. You guys take good care of her. She's as stubborn as a donkey."

Sadaharu Toyokawa felt a headache when he saw Mizuho Toyokawa sobbing. He had no mood to continue pursuing the victory after she started crying, so he could only go outside to get some fresh air.

Huh? He suddenly realized why Xiangzi didn't defend her father.

You know what? What? No way? Really? It's usually Toyokawa Sadaharu vs. Toyokawa Mizuho and Toyokawa Shoko.

It seems that my granddaughter has turned from evil to good. I hope Ruihui can wake up soon and not be deceived by treacherous officials.

Mutouren is not very good at comforting others, and Toyokawa Shoko is not good at speaking and can only breathe out. In the end, he used sweet words to coax Toyokawa Mizuho into a better mood.

Asano Yushin was the first to leave, followed closely by Wakaba Mutsu, and the last one was Toyokawa Shoko.

"We'll go back first and come visit Aunt Fengchuan tomorrow."

He said goodbye to Toyokawa Shoko politely and had to re-plan his plans and monetize his skills to make money.

"Well, be careful."

Xiangzi also waved goodbye, thinking that she could finally go back to put on the Band-Aid. She touched her pocket and was stunned.

Where's the candy? Where's her candy?

She panicked and hurried back to her mother's ward, searching the floor for the forbidden fruit.

"Mom..."

She looked at her mother, only to find that she was already fast asleep, breathing evenly.

It was lost. After searching thoroughly for several times and still finding nothing, she leaned back in her chair dejectedly, accepting the fact.

No matter what, it is a possibility. She lost a chance to make her mother happy.

The temporarily autistic Shoko Toyokawa did not notice a candy wrapper in the gap of the hospital bed, and her mother who was getting younger and younger.

In a certain actor's family, Minami Mori always felt something was wrong. When she talked about Toyokawa, her daughter's reaction was not normal.

Did something happen to Fengchuan's family? She tried to call Youxin, but the other party told her that the call could not be connected. Strange, what happened?

She searched online for information about the Toyokawa family, and all that popped up were some nonsensical news about the heir, Toyokawa Kiyoshi, suing.

Damn, what the hell is Toyokawa Kiyoshi? Is her memory messed up?
