My portable gaming girlfriend

"I'm really fed up with you. I hate this and that all day long. Why don't you find a rich man to take care of you?"

The man didn't seem to intend to swallow his anger.

"Is money the root of all problems? Do you remember that I told you that today is my birthday? I deliberately didn't remind you to see if you would remember, but instead of remembering, you took me to eat something like this Stuff! Just playing games every day, you are going to suffer from... no, you have already suffered from virtual dependence syndrome?!"

"You two stop arguing..."

It can be seen that the uncle who sells cold noodles is very embarrassed, but this man is too much, and he didn't even remember it was his birthday.

"Haven't you chatted with your Smart Companion all day? Don't think I don't know that you set your Smart Companion to look like your first love!"

"Xixi? It's much more considerate than you!"

Chihi is probably her name for the smart companion.

"It's Xixi again, what can he do for you?"

"What he can do...he knows what I think. He will order hygiene products for me in advance before the menstrual cycle comes. He usually tells me to eat more vegetables and go to bed early. He checks the weather forecast the day before I go out to play and reminds me to wear more clothes. Clothes, comforting me not to be angry after the boss scolded me, even wishing me a happy birthday when you are busy playing games, can you do this? I can see through it, you don’t care about people at all, it’s not as good as a software... …forget it."

The woman left without looking back.

"Hello……"

The man put the roasted cold noodles back on the booth, and then tried his best to chase the woman...

"Hey, how could this be, roasted cold noodles are very innocent."

My boss and I looked at each other...

"Hey, if you don't dislike it, I'll give you the cold noodles, and I don't need to charge you, anyway, they paid for it."

He pointed to the quarreling couple who had gone away.

"...Then thank you boss."

Naturally, I would not dislike it, so I hesitated for a while and reached out to take the cold noodles.

This boss is really a nice guy, I haven't seen such a kind person for a long time.

"People nowadays... are either obsessed with games or addicted to smart companions. They are all fascinated by these artificial intelligences. My daughter also likes to use smart companions. She said that this thing is more considerate than all the boys she knows. I really don't understand. Ah. I’ll buy one some other day and have a look..."

The boss continued to make the next roasted cold noodles while thinking about it.

Gaming and Smart Companion... AI...

I don't have a good impression of this thing, and one of the reasons for the failure of my love career can be attributed to it.

Speaking of which, the last time I came into contact with a smart companion was when I was in junior high school.

At that time, contact lens-style microcomputers were not so popular, and most people were using hand-held or wrist-worn microcomputers for human-computer interaction through desktop projection or holographic projection.

Ndia has just launched the 7th generation product of the smart companion Amicus series, and my parents bought one for me as a birthday present in the first grade of junior high school.

After all, it is a new product, which was worth showing off to my classmates and friends for me at the time.

Although the artificial intelligence at that time was not as perfect in terms of algorithms as it is now, it has already responded to the needs of users like a real person in terms of personality. So, until the incident in the second year of junior high school, my smart companion and I were still good friends.

It was the end of the first semester of the second year of junior high school, and I had a crush on a girl in my class. That girl is beautiful in appearance and excellent in character and learning. She is like a goddess in the grade. I only dare to look at it from a distance but I don't have the courage to confess.

But the smart partner vowed to cite evidence to prove that she must have a crush on me, and if I don't confess again, others will be the first to take the lead... and also thought out the time, place and method of confession for me.

Naively, I believed his words, stumbled in class and read a long prepared confession, and invited her to a candlelight dinner just like in the movie...

Thinking about it now is so stupid that I want to hit the wall...

Before the girl I had a crush on heard my confession, she was booed by the crowd and angrily asked me not to harass her anymore. I can't remember how embarrassed I left school...

Under questioning, the smart companion explained that this is the best method combining movies and precise calculations, but there are some very detailed factors that have not been considered.

At that time, I didn't care about the truth of the matter, I just deleted the software without hesitation. It was also from that time on that I never took the initiative to talk to girls...

I no longer believe in artificial intelligence companions, how can a computer calculate human emotions? Supercomputers can calculate the distribution of most people's preferences through data analysis, but it can never be predicted for a special person.

Just like you know that the probability of heads and tails of a coin appearing is 50%, but you can never know which side of the next coin will appear. Human thinking is so random.

Games are enough, no girlfriend is needed, this has always been my belief.

...But as the second year of middle school slowly passed, and I was stimulated by the current girls who posted girls every day, the desire to find a girlfriend began to awaken again...

It's a pity that in reality, I'm just a lonely dead house-this is what I accidentally heard, and other girls commented on me.

I'm afraid there is no hope, relying on my own strength.

It is precisely because of this that I thought of asking for help from netizens who claim to be experts in love games...

When I sat on the bench and finished eating the grilled cold noodles, the setting sun almost sank into the sky. The moon was faintly visible in the east, and I walked slowly back to the dormitory.

[Canyue: Are you there? 】

As soon as I sat down in the dormitory, I saw the news of Wanyue.

[Me: What's the matter? 】

[Can Yue: Of course I was asking you about the game, has the harem plan been completed? 】

【I:……】

This guy is here to laugh at me.

[Canyue: It seems to have failed, sure enough. 】

[Me: I plan to play the hidden ending, I just played through Mizuhara Mina's line. 】

There is no point in arguing with him, I honestly stated the next goal.

[Can Yue: That's right! This idea is more realistic than the harem ending. Come on, 18-year-old virgin! 】

In the end, this guy didn't say anything useful at all...

I haven't had a good rest for a long time. Recently, I have been living an upside-down life just to play games. Today, I must go to bed early and get a good night's sleep.

I lie on the bed and close my eyes. For a second when I closed my eyes, I was still thinking about whether I would see GAMEOVER... Will I be really affected by the game if this continues...

call.

On the path where the cherry blossoms danced, Sakura slowly walked towards me, half asleep and half awake, I came to the familiar game interface again.

I shivered subconsciously, strangely speaking, the login screen of the game space has no somatosensory settings, and I always feel that the cherry blossoms this time are a little different from usual...

"Yuchuan...student?"

Sakura just walked towards me silently, with her head down, no matter how I called, she walked as if she didn't hear half of it at all.

The surroundings gradually darkened, like an old electric light slowly going out, and as Sakura approached, my field of vision began to darken strangely.

what happened?

"This...is this?"

A cherry blossom fell on my cheek, it was extremely cold, so cold that I couldn't stop shivering subconsciously. Wipe it away with your hands...the really bright red palms that catch your eyes...I don't know when the cherry blossoms all over the sky changed from pink to blood red.

"Tamagawa-san! What's going on here?"

In a panic, I called Sakura loudly, but she still didn't give me any reply, she just walked towards me step by step among the blood-red cherry blossoms, and finally stopped in front of me.

"Student Gaocheng, there are only two of us in this world, and no one will disturb us~ So when will Student Gaocheng be with me?"

She called my name sweetly, but when I looked up, I saw blood on her face!

I wanted to escape, but found that I couldn't move at all, just like in the gameover screen...

Sakura slowly reached out to me...Damn it, quit the game quickly! What makes people desperate is that no matter how I call, the operation menu for the representative to log out does not appear...

"ah!"

I let out a short scream and woke up.

Surrounded by familiar walls and ceilings, the sky outside the window is still dark, indicating that the current time is at least before 4 o'clock.

It turned out to be a dream...

But the scene in the dream is very strange, how could the gentle and kind Sakura be stained with blood? Obviously it has nothing to do with it!

I haven't read such works as "The Interpretation of Dreams". I only remember that when I was a child, my parents always used 'dreams and reality are opposite' to explain most nightmares, but now I can only accept this sentence, maybe it's just It's a coincidence.

I have to say that once you start playing the game, you can’t stop. After eating some bread for breakfast, I decided to skip today’s class and clear the Narumi Lily route.

【Fifth day】

The fifth day, for this game, is the last day of the character's "common line" - this is the word I heard from Wan Yue.

As usual, I came to the game club after school and accepted the commission.

This commission is to clear "Looking at the Starry Sky". This game is a love game with women as the main character. There are three lines, and I am about to enter the line of reconciliation with my childhood sweetheart who was betrayed by the heroine.

[Truth: Is this Xinmu City? Wow - amazing! Those buildings are so tall! It is indeed a metropolis! 】

In the opening CG, a girl with ponytail carrying a plain canvas bag opens her arms in front of tall buildings in the city. This girl is the heroine Amamiya Mari of this work.

The number of times I saw this at the beginning has already made me vomit...

[Truth: But where is the Star Idol Academy...Damn it, I can't understand the map! 】

[Mysterious male voice: ...Miss, are you also a freshman at the Star Idol Academy? 】

Truth turned around and saw one of the protagonists of this novel, Shang Yuesen, sitting in a luxury car parked on the side of the road.

The standard girl manga hero setting.

[Truth (voice in the brain): This man is so handsome! And talking to me! Must be interesting to me! But I can't betray Hexi, Hexi is so gentle and considerate to me... It shouldn't be a problem if I just ask him the way, right? 】

[Truth: Yes! Cough... Are you a freshman at Star Idol Academy? 】

[Sen: Yes, my name is Shang Yuesen, what is the name of the lady, please? 】

[Truth: My name is Tiangong Zhenli, and I came here from Fujino Prefecture. But I'm lost, I can't find the gate of the Star Idol Academy...]

【Sen (voice in the brain): I haven't heard of that before...】

[Mori: Can I invite this beautiful lady to sit in my car and go to the Star Idol Academy together? 】

[Truth: If it's convenient, of course... And, just call me Truth. 】

Sen opened the car door and got out of the car to face the truth himself.

【Sen: Then please get in the car. It's an honor to share a ride with Truth. 】

[Truth (inner voice): This is simply a fateful encounter, today is indeed my lucky day! 】

So, if this was a so-called fateful encounter, wouldn't she forget her childhood sweetheart just after meeting a man?

Forget it... There are too many complaints about this game...

After the event, I took the initiative to stay and clean the room. The name is cleaning the room, which is actually similar to Narumi Lily.

It's no different from the behavior of the rich young master in the game.

"President, why are you always treating Tanaka-san and the others so harshly?"

I picked up the original cleaning tool and waved it on the ground. Anyway, the AI ​​​​wouldn't mind my being lazy.

"...Don't tell others, isn't Mr. Tanaka that kind of person? I hope others will treat him 'strictly' or something."

"...That's right."

It is obvious to all that Tanaka is shaking m, and it is definitely a wrong choice to sympathize with him.

"Just kidding! In fact, I think Tanaka-san is the kind of person who has no order in his life. If no one assigns tasks and urges him, he will not do things. So there is no way to make him work well if he is not strict?"

"Is it the so-called procrastination..."

"Well, it's almost like this. And Tanaka and the others are different from Gaocheng classmates. They didn't join this club because they like games at all, but because of the kind invitation of me, a beautiful girl."

Anyway, be humble! It's the first time I've seen a majestic self-proclaimed beautiful girl!

"But since you joined this club, you must do what you should do."

"I don't deny that."

"At first I thought Gao Cheng was just like them, but I didn't expect Gao Cheng to really love games..."

She touched her chin and looked at me meaningfully. By the way, I am also a player anyway, most of the people who will come to play this "Sakura Story" love games...

"I admire Gao Cheng very much, don't let me down!"

"Has the president ever thought about making them 'like' the game?"

"Well...I think about it every day, but it's really too difficult, and they don't seem to be very motivated even if they propose a reward."

"I think the president may have used the wrong method."

"Huh? Is that so? So what's the right way?"

She looked at me expectantly.

"Well... I haven't thought about it yet. If I can think of it, I will tell the president immediately."

"...you must think about it."

She solemnly asked me to do this. In other words, she really values ​​this game club, so let's play through this line in one go and see what's going on.
