She deliberately lengthened her voice, as if she was coaxing a child.
"Touch your head and rub it."
Kitagawa Ryōsenzaka Yanagi Yuqi gave the answer in one step. He soaked in her arms, drunkenly drowning in the warmth.
"So many other people's scents."
Sakayanagi Yusu rubbed the tip of his nose with the tip of his nose:
"Just my smell is enough."
"After that--"
"Embrace."
Kitagawa Ryo stretched out his hand and put it around her slender shoulders, with such force that he almost rubbed himself into her body, like a child holding tightly to a coveted toy.
He felt a strange sense of satisfaction, as if he had offered himself as a tribute to the gods.
In the six years that Kitagawa Ryo had memories of, Sakayanagi Arisu occupied every minute and every second. She was present in every carefully planned future. The fates of Kitagawa Ryo and Sakayanagi Arisu had long been entangled. Being together is like a barb piercing my heart.
"What's the end?"
The sweet words still linger in Kitagawa Ryo's ears:
"It's a kiss."
His lips touched Sakayanagi Yusu's lips and kissed her.
----------------------------------------
On the last day of vacation, Kitagawa Ryo and Sakayanagi Arisu boarded the lighthouse on the seaside together. The white-haired girl put her cane aside and leaned on the handrail like a statue, staring at the entire sea and port.
"As long as the distance is far enough, even two parallel lines that never intersect will appear to overlap to the naked eye."
Kitagawa Ryo said as he looked at the sea level in the distance that was connected to the sky.
"But in fact, no matter where it extends, the distance between them has not shortened."
He frowned and looked at the deep blue sea, and the strings of his memory were suddenly plucked a little.
"What's wrong?"
Sakayanagi Yusu turned her head and stared at Kitagawa Ryo. Her dark purple pupils were the color Kitagawa Ryo had become accustomed to seeing over the years, but now they seemed a little inconsistent.
"nothing."
Kitagawa Ryo suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, because Sakayanagi Arisu's left hand had already grasped his right hand.
The little hand that can easily slide into the palm of your hand seems to be damaged if you apply a little force, and it will melt and disappear like the first falling snow.
"It can't be the worst, right, Arisu?"
"...Um."
She took Kitagawa Ryo's left little finger and gently tickled his palm.
"In one month, Ryo will enter Tokyo Advanced Education High School with me."
"Chairman Sakayanagi has already told me about this matter."
"Um."
Sakayanagi Yusu suddenly showed a sly smile:
"I heard that it is under completely closed management for three years."
She took a step back and opened her arms like a bird flying high - as if she wanted to tell something:
"I'm looking forward to it."
"cold."
Irrelevant people do not exist here. The world that expands after completely eliminating someone's existence is a happy ending for everyone.
Sakayanagi Yusu confirmed.
ps: This is actually the final chapter of the ending of Oedipus, which is the ending where Kitagawa Ryo completely falls into Sakayanagi Yusu's dream. Forget everything and immerse yourself in the dream that the girl has constructed for you.
Oedipus Rex: Fate will always catch up with you until you achieve the future it has chosen for you.

"Ahhhhh!"
Liang looked at the writing displayed line by line on the screen, hugged the pillow and rolled around on the bed several times.
"Finally, finally a good ending."
It's obviously just a life restart simulator, but it gives him the feeling of playing a galgame, with various events and branches and a large number of endings. It seems that the production team is quite attentive.
Liang lay on the bed with his eyes closed. In the third simulation, he felt a little more involved than the previous two, but he chose to use the "temporary talent card" prop just before the final showdown. However, the core gameplay of Life Restart Simulator is to simulate life by combining talents and matching a suitable set of talents to achieve the final outcome. If you participate too much, it will be no different from ordinary text adventure games.
Liang pursed his lips, but in the middle of the story, whether it was the second or third time, he did feel the awkward situation of being an outsider, just like a reader who was simply reading the story, he had obviously realized To the impending tragedy, they can only watch it happen without being able to do anything.
He held his phone in front of his eyes and was not in a hurry to start the next simulation. Instead, he followed the clues from the game production studio and found their official website. What makes you feel a little strange is that this version of life restarts the simulation. The plot of the game should be considered quite sophisticated, but I have not seen any relevant reviews on the Internet. Even the official website of the studio called "Strength First" is lifeless, as if no one is running it at all.
Even the download address that I accidentally obtained cannot be opened again.
Liang tried sending them an email:
"After experiencing the Life Restart Simulator from your studio, I think it is a simulator that is very worth playing. However, there seems to be no discussion at this stage due to insufficient publicity, but I believe there will always be gold. Brilliant, this is a really good game!"
After Liang sent this email, he didn't have much hope. In the end, he just wanted to encourage the game production studio as an ordinary player. However, he didn't expect that only about a minute later, he received a message from' Strength comes first' studio's reply.
"Thank you for this player's love for this game. This life restart simulator is indeed in a very small internal testing stage. Through your email, we also felt your enthusiasm for this game. Could you please serve as Where is the closed beta experience officer of this game?"
Liang looked at this email with some surprise. He had indeed heard that some large-scale games would conduct multiple closed tests and internal tests before release, but those were basically all kinds of virtual games that have become popular in recent years. Real-life games, like this pure text game that still relies on mobile media... Do we really need a closed beta experience officer?
"Please rest assured that this life simulator is currently only in the preliminary stage of script composition. The final work will also use Unreal Engine to build the world. If you are willing to serve as the internal beta experience officer of this game, you will have the opportunity to experience it through virtual reality. game style for a better gaming experience."
As if aware of his concerns, the 'Strength First' studio immediately sent a second email like this.
Liang looked at his small, closed basement room and replied with some regret:
"Sorry, I don't have any VR-related gaming equipment."
He was barely struggling to survive in this society. Just like the Sims, some people can use the most advanced virtual reality equipment to play the latest virtual reality masterpiece "Sword Art OL", but Liang can only Use your mobile phone to play a life simulation game through text and imagination in your own bed.
"We just learned from the background data that you are currently the only player who has passed the first chapter. This proves your fate with this game. If the player is willing to serve as the internal beta experience officer of this game, this game The studio will provide you with free virtual reality equipment for gaming experience."
"The studio believes that working with you is a win-win choice."
It has to be said that the other party's conditions really impressed Liang. In other words, if he didn't have this opportunity, he might never have the conditions to come into contact with these things in his life.
"Okay, I agree."
----------------------------------------
It has to be said that the speed of the 'Strength First' studio is quite fast. The next day after Liang filled in his personal information, a package larger than his entire body was mailed to this place, which was no different from the depth of the sewer. In Mi's basement, it took Liang a full two hours to assemble the various parts according to the accompanying instructions, and then moved his desk further in before reluctantly putting this big guy into the house.
Although this is my first time playing a virtual reality game, I already know the process well on the Internet and the movements are not unfamiliar.
Putting on his gaming watch, he put on his helmet and connected to the virtual network. He checked the only existing option "Life Restart Simulator Strength First" in the game menu, and Liang chose to enter the game without hesitation.
In the chaos of consciousness, lines of white text emerged:
[Identity verification in progress...passed]
[ID verification in progress...passed]
[Iris confirmation...passed]
[Life Restart Simulator]
[Every time you perform a life simulation, five talents will be randomly selected. The talent levels are divided into five levels: white, green, blue, purple, and gold. After each simulation, players can choose a talent to solidify and keep it until the next time. During a simulation. ]
[Please note that each chapter can be simulated up to five times, and the game will fail after five failed simulations. ]
[After each chapter is successful, players can permanently obtain all the talents when passing the level and use them in the simulation of the next chapter. ]
[You can get mysterious prizes after clearing all chapters. ]
[Wish you a happy game. ]
In the bright starry sky, line after line of subtitles appeared.
According to the "Strength First" studio, at the current production progress, only the plot CG can be personally experienced by players. Daily simulation information is still displayed in the form of text. However, for Liang, this is already better than reading text on a mobile phone. Having figured out too much with his mind, he gently touched the unlocked second chapter, and the white-framed UI turned into fragments and was rebuilt back together:
[Chapter: Megumi Karuizawa's Autumn Lies]
[Ask players to name their characters]
[The player chooses to name Ryo Kitagawa]
[Named]
[The first simulation of the first chapter will be carried out next. ]
[Seven talents have been selected for players, as follows:]
[Single-hearted (gold): You are devoted to the heroine of this article. When I open my eyes, the bright moon and breeze are you, the flowers, grass and trees are you; the vast sea, mountains and rivers are also you; when I close my eyes, the stars in my dream all become you. (If you pass the level with this talent, the final score of this simulation will increase by ten points)]
"Oh, this is good. My character now has so many solidified talents. If he is not a sentimental character, he should be able to achieve the mission goal quite easily."
Liang then thought of something and frowned:
"No, it seems that the mission of the second chapter has not been released yet. The mission of the first chapter is to change the past of Ichinose Honami, so the second chapter should be to change the past of Karuizawa Megumi?"
[Everyone is attracted by it (Purple): Greatly improve your personal charm (for both men and women)]
"...I didn't know for a moment whether this talent was better than the original 'Tokyo Handsome Boy'. Unfortunately, there are no props like talent refresh cards this time.
[Soccer boy (blue): Your football skills are extremely superb and you are the best among your peers (eat me with an upside-down golden hook)]
"Another talent that is better than nothing, but I remember the last time I met Karuizawa Megumi in Chapter 1 was because of a friendly football match."
[Children of famous families (blue): Your family is quite famous in the local area (Rebirth: I am a Prodigal Son 2)]
"Suddenly all kinds of bad memories came back to me."
