How can my simulation be a real love?

This is one of the treasures belonging to the lamp, and it bears the inscription of the first song by the former band 'CRYCHIC' – 'Spring Shadow'.

"Well, I'm not in a band anymore."

When Takamatsu Akari mentioned this, she shook her head, her head lowered as if recalling some memories that made her feel guilty.

Nine five zero one eight zero nine zero nine

But before she could even express her disappointment, she was interrupted by Kazami Mei's next words.

"If Deng were to be the lead singer, it would be a good fit."

Kazami Mei slowly closed the notebook in her hand and carefully placed it back in its original position. Then, she stretched out her slender, fair fingers and gently tapped the empty space next to the notebook, a hint of smugness on her face.

"Isn't it a coincidence that I happen to know a little about the piano?"

Her eyes widened slightly, her amber-gold pupils like the vibrant sunlight of an autumn afternoon. Her right hand involuntarily gripped the collar of her dress, and her slightly trembling lips seemed to hold words about to escape her lips.

But before that, Kazami Mei looked directly into the girl's trembling eyes and spoke softly in a gentle tone—

"Then, the lamp."

"Would you like to be in a band with me for the rest of your life?"

Chapter Nineteen: Aren't lamps adorable?!

You formed a band with Gao Songdeng.

Your heartfelt sincerity made her feel incredibly at ease. You were like the rising sun before dawn, tearing through the clouds and illuminating the fog in the darkness, becoming a guiding light that gave her the courage to step out of this endless fog.

It was as if, as long as you were there, she would never lose her way again.

Your relationship with Takamatsu Teng has deepened.

That's right, this time they've escaped the gravitational black hole directly!

Kazami Mei closed her eyes, immersing herself in the various memories that suddenly flooded her mind.

He has now completely gained the lamp's trust.

If we continue at this pace, this simulation should proceed smoothly as long as we are careful.

Feeling cheerful, Kazami Mei took a sip of the piping hot coffee that Shoko had brewed. The hot coffee not only instantly invigorated him but also kept him in a state of high energy afterward.

This is one of his few little habits.

Finally, a few scattered customers began to enter the store. Kazami Mei greeted them with a professional smile, and after serving the coffee, he returned to his simulation mode.

[A few days later, a transfer student named Chihaya Aine suddenly transfers into your class. With her cheerful and outgoing personality, she immediately finds the most suitable person in the class, Kita Ikuyo, and quickly becomes friends with everyone around her with her strong social skills.]

However, you don't care about any of that; all you care about right now is how to successfully form your own band with the lights.

Just as you and Takamatsu Akari were discussing where to practice, Chihaya Aine suddenly struck up a conversation with you.

……

"Hey! Are Kazami and Takamatsu in a band together?"

Her long, beautiful pink hair, as lovely as cherry blossoms, swayed behind her as she moved. Her voice was quite unique, giving one a dizzying sensation just by hearing it.

Chihaya Aine's sudden approach to strike up a conversation clearly caught Takamatsu Akari off guard.

"Yes, Ming and I formed a band together..."

"Huh?! Is it just the two of you now? In that case, can I join you too?"

Chihaya Aine clasped her hands together in a cute pleading gesture, and her slightly shimmering gray eyes, like jewels, made it impossible to refuse; one might even want to agree immediately.

Completely at a loss in the face of this situation, Takamatsu Akari could only turn her attention to Kazami Mei.

Now, Akari completely regards Kazami Mei as her backbone, and she wants to ask for his opinion on everything.

"Chihaya-san, right? Why did you want to contact us?"

Kazami Mei's question left the enthusiastic Chihaya Aine somewhat stunned.

However, Chihaya Aine, whose social skills are almost maxed out, immediately recovered from her surprise, wearing an approachable smile that was hard to dislike, and her cute little tiger teeth gleamed in the light.

"Because I really want to be friends with you guys! Being in a band is the most fun when you're hanging out with friends, isn't it?"

"Actually, I've wanted to talk to Takamatsu for a while, but she's always next to Kazami, so I haven't had a chance. I finally mustered up the courage!"

Wow, that's some impressive social skills.

"Chihaya-kun, what musical instruments do you play?"

"No need to be so formal, just call me Aine! And I'll call you all Touka and Naruto~"

"I had experience in a band during my junior high school student council, and I was the lead guitarist and vocalist. In short, you'll understand once you've heard it!"

Seeing Chihaya Aine's confident demeanor, Kazami Mei nodded slightly.

In any case, Archangel Aene is the only relatively 'normal' person in Mygo.

I'm not the one who can save you.

Her social skills are a perfect match for Deng's friendship. With her high emotional intelligence, Ai Yin is both tactful and understanding of others' hidden emotions, which always helps Deng to alleviate his anxiety before he becomes withdrawn.

Her only minor flaw is her vanity, but this is negligible compared to her other virtues.

"If Ming agrees, I have no objection."

Seeing that Kazami Mei had already nodded, Akari, who had been somewhat hesitant, put on a faint smile and agreed to Chihaya Aine's request.

"Great! It's settled then. Let's meet at the agreed place tomorrow!"

……

You decide to let Chihaya Aine join the band too, secretly making up your mind so that Akari won't be saddened by the band again.

[You'll do everything in your power to form a band, even if it's just for the sake of the lights.]

You became friends with Chihaya Aine.

The band is gradually expanding, and Gao Songdeng trusts you completely. However, you keenly sense that Gao Songdeng trusts you too much, and this excessive trust has gradually turned into a feeling of 'dependence'.

You don't know if this kind of dependent feeling is a good thing for both of you.

Therefore, you decide—

[1. I increased my efforts, and once she couldn't bear to be without me, I took the opportunity to propose to her.]

2. Her over-reliance on herself may cause problems; she should temporarily reduce her focus on the lights.

3. Let nature take its course

4. Virtual Reality, Personal Simulation

Oh no, now the little light has become a clingy light.

However, in Kazami Mei's eyes, she was like a fluffy little penguin burrowing into her father's arms, clingy and insecure. What's wrong with this little girl who just wants to be hugged and lacks a sense of security?

Isn't it cute?

There's absolutely no problem with that!

As long as he successfully marries the lamp in this simulation, there will be no problem. All of the lamp's dependence will be transformed into his doubled tolerance towards her.

It would be better if his status in the lamp were as important as possible!

Seeing this, Kazami Mei made a choice without hesitation.

You believe that Deng's excessive dependence on you is not a bad thing, and that it stems from her lack of security, so you decide to be more tolerant of her.

The next day, when you were taking Chihaya Aine and Takamatsu Akari to the livehouse for their first practice session, you coincidentally ran into Takamatsu Akari's former band member, Shiina Tatsuki. The truth eventually came out.

[This might be a destined encounter; even though you went to the 'Starry Night' training ground in Shimokitazawa specifically, you still ran into her.]

……

"Hey! Who are you, and why are you with the lamp?!"

The tall, straight-haired girl, Shiina Riki, stared with sharp purple eyes, her gaze as if she were looking at some large piece of trash, like sharp blades flashing with icy cold light piercing forward.

The girl, her voice filled with anger, strode forward, her long, dark brown hair flying behind her.

The smooth, beautiful black hair seemed to be echoing its owner's emotions, dancing angrily in the air.

Shiina Riki's sudden rush forward startled Chihaya Aine, who was meeting him for the first time, causing her to hide behind Kazami Mei. Kazami Mei, on the other hand, had an expression that said he had expected this to happen.

Lixi, of course, didn't care about any of that; her mood had already exploded to the extreme.

This completely unfamiliar 'suspicious person' is actually talking to Deng! Deng is innocent, cute, and utterly unaware of others' malice; what if she's tricked into doing something bad—

What a joke! ! !

She would never allow such a thing to happen; she would be the one to protect the light!

"Who are you, and why are you clinging to the lamp?!"

However, just as Shiina Riki rushed in front of Kazami Mei, he was blocked by Takamatsu Akari's body.

Just moments ago, Shiina Riki had come on with a fierce and aggressive demeanor, but now she was completely stunned, looking at the petite girl in front of her with a slightly furrowed brow in astonishment.

"--lamp?"

Chapter Twenty: Li Xi is a Reliable Partner

"Lixi, don't do this."

Takamatsu Akari's eyes were filled with undisguised anxiety. Her petite frame was outstretched as she shielded Shiina Ritsuki with her arms, as if worried that Shiina Ritsuki, in her heightened emotions, might do something irreversible.

In the past, she was always timid and weak, sensitive in interpersonal relationships and lacking in assertiveness.

Even Shiina Riki, who once understood Akari the best [in her own opinion], was clearly encountering her like this for the first time.

Kazami Mei covered his face in embarrassment. Things had happened so fast that before he could do anything, Kodama had already stepped in front of him.

Seeing this, in order to avoid making the situation more complicated, he stepped forward to explain.

Novel Novel No. 0

Before he could even speak, the pink-haired girl hiding behind him suddenly poked her head out, showing her cute little tiger teeth and asking with some dissatisfaction, "And who are you? Are you someone Xiaodeng knows?"

Seeing that Shiina Riki's arrogance had weakened because of the light, Chihaya Aine, who had been a little frightened just now, immediately became more unrestrained.

Her ability to stir up trouble seemed to be a powerful, innate talent.

As expected, Chihaya Aine's words were like triggering a switch; Shiina Tatsuki, who had been somewhat subdued by the light popping out, once again turned sharp and terrifying in the eyes.

"I'm a friend of the lamp. What's your relationship with the lamp? Why are you with her?"

"We're in a band with Xiaodeng! There's absolutely no problem with the three of us being together, right?"

"what!?"

Chihaya Aine's words completely shocked Shiina Tatsuki. Completely unable to comprehend the situation, she was stunned, and for a short time could only express her shock with "Huh?"

The fact that Deng formed a band without her knowledge had a significant impact on her.

However, what she found hardest to accept was that the reason the lamp was lit wasn't because of her, but because of your re-forming of the band. She didn't know when you and the lamp had become so close, that even she didn't get to be treated like holding hands.

At this moment, Shiina Tatsuki practically wanted to devour you whole.

However, after being persuaded by the lantern, Shiina Ritsuki gradually calmed down. Although his eyes were still full of murderous intent when he looked at you, his attitude towards you on the surface was a little better. At least he didn't want to kill you now.

[You, with your keen observation, suddenly notice that Shiina Tatsuki's expression is somewhat hesitant, as if she is about to say something.]

No, man.

Miss Lixi, what else could you possibly be planning? Is there even a question to ask?

The memories that had just flooded into his brain, from Kazami Naruto's first-person perspective, showed Ritsuki's wide-eyed, incredulous expression, which was indeed a bit funny.

I have thought about it and led San to pray for the

It was as if he was secretly jealous that the Lights Band hadn't invited him.

That expression, tinged with a hint of grievance and jealousy, was exactly like that of a certain Ms. Cao who was eavesdropping outside the door.

The memory is so vivid that the next time Kazami Mei meets Riki in real life, she might not be able to help but laugh.
