Love Comes After Simulation

Chapter 107

【Love Simulator】

【Bound Player: Minami Yuuki】

【Remaining Simulation Attempts: 3.5 (Simulation attempts can recover over time or be actively acquired)】

【Available Simulation Targets: Minami Ruri, Minami Airi, Minami Kotori, Asano Nao, Ibuki Yuko, Nakajima Reina】

The fractional number of simulation attempts made Minami Yuuki a bit uneasy. He thought about asking Airi to fold paper cranes when he got home tonight to make it an even number.

It had been five days since the last time the girl folded paper cranes; he wondered if her feelings had recovered by now.

Asano Nao hadn’t folded paper cranes in a long time either.

Minami Yuuki turned his gaze towards the kitchen, scanning past the dining table to focus on Asano Nao, who had her back to him.

With the weather warming up, it was a bit hot in the kitchen, so Asano Nao had taken off her sports jacket, revealing a white T-shirt under her light green apron that highlighted her remarkable figure. The apron tied around her neck and waist, accentuating her upper body’s curves. When she turned sideways to fetch and handle ingredients, Minami Yuuki could clearly see the light green hills.

Asano Nao was entirely focused on cooking, showing a pure allure rather than any sensuality, contrasting sharply with Ibuki Yuko’s pure yet enticing appeal.

Pulling his gaze away, Minami Yuuki pinched his nose, cursing himself for not being focused.

He was supposed to simulate Nakajima Reina, but he was still thinking about other women.

He clicked on Nakajima Reina’s name.

【Selected [Nakajima Reina], start simulation?】

Yes!

【During the simulation, there might be mental disorientation. It is advised to move to a safe place.】

Minami Yuuki adjusted himself on the sofa to make sure he was fully settled and clicked confirm.

【Simulation Start】

【Remaining Simulation Attempts: 2.5】

【Simulation Target: Nakajima Reina】

【Initial Relationship: Unrequited Love】

Just like Asano Nao, is it unrequited love?

But Nakajima Reina should have never met me. How can there be an unrequited love relationship? Or maybe we’ve met before, but I don’t remember?

A lot of questions flashed through Minami Yuuki’s mind, but he quickly set them aside.

The simulation will provide answers soon; there’s no need to dwell on it now.

He looked at the simulation interface:

【It has been a week since you came to this world. You’ve met Asano Nao, Chitose Kazumi, and Ibuki Yuko. You understand that they all have feelings for you. However, you are not planning to choose them.】

【You have set your sights on your homeroom teacher Nakajima Yohei’s daughter—Nakajima Reina.】

【Aside from Nakajima Reina’s name, you know nothing about this future partner: her appearance, age, or where she is.】

【You start gathering information.】

【At school, there are three female teachers you can talk to. You inquire with them.】

【To your surprise, these three gossip-loving, meddlesome teachers have no information about Nakajima Yohei’s daughter. Nakajima Yohei keeps his daughter extremely well-hidden, seldom discussing her with others, and has never revealed any related information.】

【They help you make inquiries but only find out that Nakajima Reina is staying at the Chikusa University Hospital.】

【Chikusa University Hospital is a large hospital. Although its medical level is not as high as that of the Misaki University Medical School Affiliated Hospital, it is still considered excellent. The hospital is best known for its long-term care services.】

【Knowing Nakajima Reina’s location, you choose to…】

【1. “How can I get my father-in-law to agree to our relationship?”】

【2. “Proceed without telling my father-in-law.”】

【3. “Nao, Yuko, and Kazumi are also good options.”】

【4. Free Simulation】

Minami Yuuki studied the options, stroking his chin.

Option one is to approach Nakajima Reina through Nakajima Yohei, while option two is to try to get close to Nakajima Reina on his own. Option three is to give up.

Eliminating option three, he was left with options one and two. Which would be better?

Option two is quite difficult. Chikusa University Hospital has strict management, so sneaking in would be challenging. Option one also has its difficulties—based on previous conversations on LINE, Nakajima Yohei doesn’t seem inclined to introduce his daughter to him.

After a moment’s hesitation, Minami Yuuki selected option one.

Hospitals are different from other places; patients are different from ordinary people.

It’s better to meet Nakajima Reina through Nakajima Yohei.

More importantly… he has a ready-made leverage to make Nakajima Yohei agree to his request.

【You decide to obtain the opportunity to meet Nakajima Reina from Nakajima Yohei, using an excellent bargaining chip.】

【You begin to approach Ibuki Honoka. What could be more bonding than introducing a wife to Nakajima Yohei? As long as Nakajima Yohei has any conscience, he can’t refuse your request to meet Nakajima Reina.】

【Moreover, with the clingy Honoka around, Nakajima Yohei will have less time to spend with his daughter in the hospital, and if you replace him, he will appreciate you.】

【There is a small issue with Honoka. She has found a new boyfriend, a handsome, tall middle-aged man.】

【You plan to break them up.】

【After some investigation, you learn from the middle-aged man’s ex-girlfriend about his past. The man was supported by a wealthy woman in his youth, worked at a nightclub in his twenties, and had several girlfriends to support himself. Now, in middle age, under pressure from his parents, he married a woman from his hometown, but still dissatisfied, returned to Misaki and pretended to be a single man to deceive Ibuki Honoka.】

【You marvel at Honoka’s knack for attracting bad men. With your intervention, Honoka soon breaks up with her new boyfriend.】

【Taking advantage of her sadness, you promise to find her a new man.】

【Ibuki Honoka thinks you’re comforting her and feels warmed. She wishes that if she were twenty years younger, or you were twenty years older, how wonderful that would be.】

【After dealing with Ibuki Honoka, you use the same trick again. You first directly ask Nakajima Yohei if he wants a girlfriend. After being rejected, you contact Nakajima Yohei’s mother, Nakajima Seiko. Under the pressure of the old lady, Nakajima Yohei agrees to meet with Ibuki Honoka.】

【Their first meeting goes smoothly, and their relationship quickly heats up.】

【Half a month later, you bring up his daughter to Nakajima Yohei.】

A brief memory scene appears.

In the large office filled with desks, each piled high with exam papers and documents, it’s very messy.

The school bell has rung some time ago, and aside from Nakajima Yohei, there’s only an old man with headphones watching short videos.

“Teacher, you must be very busy these days,” Minami Yuuki says, pulling up a chair and sitting next to Nakajima Yohei.

“Mind your own business,” Nakajima Yohei assumes Minami Yuuki wants to talk about inappropriate matters and taps the boy’s head with a textbook.

He puts on a stern face, showing his unwillingness to discuss.

Minami Yuuki pretends to sigh, “I don’t mind, but Reina must be very lonely. Daddy is spending less and less time with her. Sigh.”

“…What do you want?”

“If Nakajima-sensei is too busy, I can visit Reina on your behalf.”

“No need!”

“Then I’ll have to ask Grandma Seiko. Grandma Seiko knows that things are going well with Aunt Honoka and would be very pleased. If I can help you visit Reina and give you more time to sort out your marriage, she’d be even happier!”

Nakajima Yohei is caught off guard. He reflects on his mother’s personality; if Minami Yuuki makes such a request, his mother will undoubtedly agree. The boy has a high reputation in his mother’s eyes.

“Alright. I’ll talk to the hospital,” he chose to compromise.

After putting aside his prejudice against his daughter meeting a boy, Nakajima Yohei felt it wasn’t too bad. After spending so much time with Minami Yuuki, he knew the boy wasn’t bad. Yuuki was inherently charming, and Reina was also interested in him. Allowing him to visit Reina might help her catch some of his youthful energy.

“Huh? Won’t my Father-in-law take me there himself?” Minami Yuuki said disappointedly.

“Don’t go too far, kid!” Nakajima Yohei swung the textbook again, this time with a bit more force, causing Yuuki to feel a sharp pain in his head.

“Alright, alright, I get it. It would indeed be inappropriate for Dad to bring a boy to meet his daughter.”

Ignoring the provocation in Yuuki’s words, Nakajima Yohei made detailed arrangements: “Tomorrow you and Chitose Kazumi will go together. I’ll inform Reina tonight that you’re student representatives coming to visit. You’ll need to handle the part with Kazumi.”

“How cunning. Completely distancing yourself.”

“Enough talk. Here’s the address. Hurry up!”

Nakajima Yohei shoved a note with the room number into Yuuki’s hand and pushed him out of the office.

【After your negotiation, Nakajima Yohei agreed to let you visit his daughter, but on the condition that you and Chitose Kazumi go as representatives of the class.】

【You agreed, and Chitose Kazumi, who received your message, also agreed.】

【The next afternoon after school, you and Chitose Kazumi left your backpacks at the Asano household and took the subway to Chikusa University Hospital, buying a bouquet of flowers along the way.】

【The long-term care ward is at the far end of the hospital. The nurse registered you, gave you some instructions, and then let you in.】

【Room 303, Nakajima Reina’s ward.】

【You lightly knock on the door. From behind it, a gentle voice invites you in.】

【You open the door.】

【White, exceptionally white. That’s your first impression of the ward. Amidst this sea of white, a girl in a blue hospital gown sits on the bed, with a blanket covering her legs, exposing only her upper body.】

【The hospital bed is next to the window. The blue of the hospital gown blends with the sky outside, and the girl’s pale hand and face are reflected in the blue of the sky.】

A memory scene flashed in Minami Yuuki’s mind.

“Hello,” Nakajima Reina greeted them with a smile.

Her demeanor was naturally gentle, like the light blue spring sky.

Her appearance was graceful and soft, reminiscent of clouds drifting in a clear blue sky.

The glint in her eyes when she looked at them was like a fish darting fleetingly at the bottom of a clear spring.

Such an elegant beauty should not be confined to this stark white hospital room, wearing a plain hospital gown.

Instead, she should stand on the high platform of a golden pavilion, dressed in a classical gown adorned with pearls, gazing out over the garden.

Chitose Kazumi was mesmerized by Nakajima Reina’s grace and beauty.

It was only when Minami Yuuki stepped in front of her, blocking her view, that she snapped back to reality.
