Chapter 216: Chapter 216 Ichiko stumbled back two steps and sat down on the snow.

"But what’s the use of saying this now?"

Emi tilted her head, her dark, hollow eyes just looking at her, "What did you do after Elder chichi died?"

"I..."

Ichiko stumbled back two steps and sat down on the snow.

She did nothing.

Talking about revenge, it was actually Inari and Shin, and even Yuna Ge, who were working hard. She only found Sento’s location because of the note.

Everyone’s perspective is different, and the information they see is also different.

In Emi’s eyes, Haruko died because of Ichiko.

And her biggest wish before she died was for Ichiko to like her.

But in the end, this wish was not fulfilled.

Then, don’t you not deserve her?

Emi didn’t continue speaking, but Ichiko saw deep disappointment in her eyes.

She wasn’t resentful of herself, nor did she hate herself.

Instead, she felt that Haruko’s death was not worth it.

After all, even now, her liking for Haruko is not much.

Let alone love.

Ichiko hunched her body and turned around dejectedly.

If she wanted to enter this residential area, Emi definitely wouldn’t force her to stay.

It’s just...

She really had no face to go back.

The snow is a bit heavy, and the wind makes people feel cold.

How much I wish... I could hug that warm little body again.

...

It wasn’t really an argument, just that everyone had different perspectives and cared about different things. After Ichiko left, Emi turned around and looked at Haruko’s house.

After standing in the snow like this for ten minutes, she wiped away the tears that had fallen after Ichiko left.

Finally, she bowed towards the house and left into the snow.

And neither of them noticed that in a small snowman piled up next to the entrance, a scarecrow was hiding inside, hearing their conversation clearly.

[Host, this is completely outside the plan]

The System’s voice brought Haruko back to her senses.

She crawled out of the snowman pile, looked at Ichiko’s retreating back, and remained silent for a long time.

"Kai, do you think I did something wrong?"

[...]

How do you want this System to comment on this?

Haruko pursed her lips, "I just wanted Ichiko to like me too. I’m already dead and she’s still like this, I... I just feel so disappointed and so sad."

Until now, the love favorability displayed by the Status Glasses still hasn’t reached the passing line of 60.

It was 49 before, now it’s 51.

If Ichiko thinks too much someday, will she start to hate herself?

I died for you, why can’t you like me a little more?

Haruko was silent and murmured softly, "I... I’m not blaming Ichiko, I’m just... thinking about how to make her like me faster."

[Host, feelings like liking can’t be rushed]

[Your method might indeed be a bit extreme]

"But, even after I died, she didn’t change. Even if I wake up a month later, won’t it just keep repeating like this?"

She was very anxious, because she was already a bit abnormal, perhaps really a bit of a yandere.

Precisely because of this, she urgently wanted to change the status quo.

She wanted Ichiko to like her.

And not be affected by the male leads who would appear later, nor by the world will.

The System sighed.

[Host, liking is mutual. You need to give Ichiko some time for her to figure out her feelings. The current her is like a boiling pressure cooker]

[Rather, she was just ignited, she just didn’t show it]

Anyone could see that she needed to decompress.

Otherwise, she would never be able to rationally think about the problems of this relationship.

She would only continue to narrow her thinking under this high pressure, and then subconsciously excuse herself and protect herself.

She is not a rational personality like Shin who can do anything to achieve her goals. Like many people, she is easily swayed, easily confused, and hesitant when facing things.

You cannot demand absolute perfection from every normal person.

[Host, both of you have areas that need to change]

"I’m already trying."

Haruko shook the snow off her body, "I’m trying my best to make myself normal."

Normal when not using Intermediate Acting.

Because I thought, in that case, Ichiko would accept me, right?

Haruko flipped through the System Mall, and then chose something she had wanted to buy for a long time.

[Dream Invitation Red Thread: Can bind a person and construct a dream, pulling the other party in, and the other party can clearly feel that this is a lucid dream.]

[Disposable item, can only be used once.]

[Price: 1500 Emotion Points.]

"Kai, buy this."

[Host, this is too expensive. It’s getting harder and harder to obtain Emotion Points now]

The biggest provider of Emotion Points was undoubtedly Ichiko.

However, Ichiko has endured pressure too much and gradually become numb, so the Emotion Points provided by pressure and collapse are already very few.

These 1500 points, randomly drawing a skill would be better.

However, Haruko just shook her head, "I did put too much pressure on Ichiko. I want... at least to let her have a good dream."

Haruko clicked purchase.

A hint of anticipation curved her lips, "And, I want to see Ichiko."

Even if it was only in a dream.

The red thread pulled, but Ichiko didn’t fall asleep immediately.

At this time, she was walking aimlessly on the road, wearing a coat and letting the wind and snow hit her cheeks.

It was very cold, and also very uncomfortable.

But this could make her mind much clearer, so that she wouldn’t escape and forget what happened today, what others said.

Confusion filled her eyes. Unconsciously, she came to the riverside. The cold weather had already frozen most of the river surface.

A small part was a mixture of ice and water, shimmering under the streetlights.

She looked out at the city on the opposite bank, but didn’t notice that a figure had appeared beside her at some point.

"It’s rare to see someone here so late."

The figure beside her chuckled, as if they had found a kindred spirit, leaned on the cold iron railing and asked with a sigh, "Miss, do you also want to jump into the river?"
