My portable gaming girlfriend

I haven't liked anyone since that incident in junior high.

But today I couldn't help but confessed to a game character.

Didn't think about 'confession is too early, what should I do? ’, ‘Is today the end? ’ These things about the game. It was simply because of impulse to say those few words.

I don't believe in love at first sight, and I even fell into the despair of not believing in the existence of any emotion. But at this time I actually confessed to a girl?

My second confession is in the game? It's ridiculous to say it, right?

"..."

Sakura seems to have fallen into a petrified state. No, how could the characters in the game be petrified...they would just die in suspended animation because the calculations were too complicated.

"……cherry?"

I tentatively asked her, and unknowingly even changed her name.

She suddenly stood up and hugged me!

Now it's my turn to fall into suspended animation!

As a person who has not dated girls for 18 years, although I have contacted many girls in this game, but this is the first time to be hugged!

It's also physical contact, which is different from touching the chest last time, this is the hug after the confession.

"Me, me too..."

"What did you say?"

The voice was too low to hear clearly.

"...I like you too, Gao Cheng."

God is merciful, my first confession was successful! He was also actively hugged by the girl he liked!

At this moment, the contradiction between the game and reality is no longer important to me, what is important is only the intense emotions that are filling my heart now.

My first successful confession was with a game character, will the real charge laugh to death if I tell such a thing?

No! Sakura is not a simple game character, she is an angel, a real angel! As long as I don't delete the archive, she will not disappear, we will always be lovers!

"I'm so happy...it's the first time someone cares about me so much and says they like me..."

"This is also the first time I have this feeling... My heart is a little sour, this feeling..."

"Then...will you be with me forever?"

she asked me cautiously.

"Yes, we will always be with Sakura."

As long as I remember her and this game, it doesn't count as leaving her, right? It's just... I've been a little flustered in my heart, why exactly.

But seeing her smile satisfied because of my answer, I think this is enough.

"elder sister!"

Jasmine, who opened the door suddenly, was stunned to see our embrace.

"Jasmine..."

"You really are together! Dad——"

Jasmine turned around and ran downstairs, the floor made a 'dong dong' sound under the trample.

"Don't tell Dad..."

Sakura tried to stop Jasmine, but unfortunately she had already rushed downstairs.

We stayed in the room anxiously, probably because we had a smooth talk with our blind date tonight. Unexpectedly, instead of being angry, Sakura's father allowed our relationship.

"...It's because I have given you too little love all this time. I hope Mr. Gao Cheng can make up for the lost part."

——What a good father who understands his children.

Wait a minute, when is End Day?

Isn't it the end tonight? It's too cruel to lose an angel as soon as the confession is over! No, no, I have achieved the hidden ending, right? What is the so-called hidden ending...

Sakura's father had already left the room, and when I was about to say goodbye to her and go home——

"Let's go on a date on Sunday."

She tugged at my dress. This... is probably the hidden ending?

The progress is a bit fast... But it doesn't matter, it is an old game after all. Anyway, for the first time in my life, I got the chance to date the girl I like, although it is in the game...

[Day 14]

Today is my date with Sakura.

Yesterday, which is Saturday, I went to Mizuhara Mina's concert.

This is my second time going to her concert.

Everything is exactly the same as it was in Week 46, but this time her life is without my participation.

Without the ticket provided by Ms. Suwon, I could only sit in the back seat. I'm far away from Mina Mizuhara, but I can feel that she's different from before...

She wasn't happy, she just pretended to be happy. But I don't know what happened, but I still came to participate in the performance.

After this concert, she will continue to live a harsh life, until one day she will become a star and live a life she doesn't want to live...

But I can't help her anymore. Not only that, but I can't help Narumi Lily either. I don't know what the club is like, and no one will tell me.

But now is not the time to feel guilty, the most important thing is the date with Sakura.

The door of the coffee shop opened, and I reflexively looked at who was coming——

"A Yuan!"

Sakura walked into the cafe wearing a white suspender dress and a pink sweater. She saw me here and came over and sat in front of me.

"I can't help but feel happy when I think of seeing A Yuan today, I was despised by Jasmine..."

After Sakura sat down, she began to chatter about her experience.

"Father also had a good chat with auntie, and it's time to decide on the wedding date..."

"In this way, the family will become much more lively..."

"Sakura...would you like to watch a movie later?"

I took out the two movie tickets that had been in my pocket for a long time - I thought of asking her to watch a movie because I was inspired by Narumi Lily.

"OK!"

... After all, it is equivalent to buying a game as a free gift. This movie is really boring, but I still watched it soberly.

On the one hand, it’s because if you watch it with an angel, it doesn’t matter what the movie is, it’s just a background.

On the other hand, this kind of pure love experience is rare, and I enjoy it very much...

"Wooooow, it's so touching..."

In the dark, I saw Sakura take out a tissue to wipe...

So where is the touching feeling of this simple romance film...

After the movie, it's shopping as a dating routine. There were people coming and going on the commercial street on Sunday, we bought two takoyaki and lemon tea, and sat down together on the stone bench at the corner.

"Eating takoyaki with Takashiro-san like this on a spring afternoon, I'm so happy."

"It's incredible to say that, from the first time I saw Sakura, I felt that it was a fateful encounter."

Indeed, the meeting under the cherry tree left a deep impression on me.

"Eh? Didn't expect Ah Yuan to think so too?"

"So Sakura..."

"Well. The first time I saw A Yuan, I had a strange feeling."

Did Sakura think so too? My heart beats a little faster...

"So when we first met... what kind of person did Sakura think I was?"

"Let's think about it... A Yuan who appeared in front of me at that time revealed a kind of peaceful and gentle gaze."

Was I like this at that time? I clearly remember it as if... Forget it, why should I be unhappy if you praise me.

"Later when I was at a loss, A Yuan appeared by my side and promised to take care of Meow Sauce for me... At that time, I was sure that I was right. And ah, when I heard that A Yuan came to look for me yesterday, I really knew I really feel the warmth of being cared for..."

"...I have been moving frequently, and lost contact with the friends I finally met. This kind of life is really enough... I just want to find someone and be with him forever."

That's right, Sakura's mother died in a car accident 6 years ago. Her father is busy with work and has to take care of her younger sister. Of course, she can't enjoy much love.

"It doesn't matter, no matter what happened in the past, I will always be with you in the future."

I touched her head, the hair was so soft to the touch.

"Well! Ah Yuan will always be with me, right?"

Asked again? So insecure? There was a strange feeling in my heart, but it was quickly concealed by Sakura's bright smile.

"Ah... yes, yes."

In any case, this is just a game, or a love game with such a simple and pure design. It is normal for the character AI to ask exactly the same questions, and it doesn’t matter if you promise to come back from time to time to experience it.

"But, didn't Ah Yuan say that he would go to a big city to work after graduation?"

"I still remember something so long ago, you really..."

I patted one of the bristling hairs on the top of her head.

"...If Sakura is willing, we will go together, and if not, I will stay with Sakura."

"Then it's a deal! Together forever!"

We spent an afternoon and almost visited the entire Yuying Town. There is no way, who said this is a small town...

The sky is gradually getting dark, even if we don't want to part with each other, we must part, after all, we haven't reached the point of cohabitation yet. Watching her poke her head out of the second-floor window and wave to me, it dawned on me that this might be our last day together in the game.

If there is a way to bring her out of the game...

【Fifteenth day】

When you open your eyes, it is the morning of a new day.

...Is this game this long? The small book doesn't seem to mention it, normally it's not over in two weeks?

Could it be... still hiding the ending? Or did I inadvertently play an unrecorded easter egg?

That's too powerful, you have to show it off to that guy Can Yue!

It is a rare opportunity to enjoy the plot of this unrecorded fifteenth day before quitting.

I habitually walked to the cherry blossom trail again. But two weeks later, the cherry blossoms here have almost withered, leaving a piece of green buds dotted on the branches.

...This kind of mess is ugly, but the cherry blossom trees look the best when they are in full bloom.

Today, Sakura is not here, I am a little disappointed...

Suddenly, my eyes were covered by two cold little hands...

"Good morning, guess who I am?"

"...It's Sakura."

That voice was undoubtedly Sakura.

"...You can't guess it all at once, it's too boring, you know?"

Sakura looked at me angrily.

"Okay, okay, be sure to pay attention next time, I'll guess wrong three times in a row first."

"This is more or less..."

In reality, falling in love in high school is an act called puppy love, which is punished by school teachers and parents.

But in the game, there are not so many troubles. Sakura and I swaggered hand in hand in class, no one was surprised. It seems that the AI ​​in this game is set up so that it is not surprising to see couples in school?

At noon, the two of us cuddled up on the roof to eat bento, and at night we went home holding hands.

This day is simply full of addiction.

【You have been playing continuously for 24 hours, please leave the game and take a proper rest to avoid confusion of your body functions. 】

——?

A system prompt that only existed in the instruction manual appeared in front of his eyes... This was the first time he had been prompted in the game for a long time. Save it for a while and take a break...

This game can only be archived after I go home and go to sleep for a day. As soon as I got home, Meow-chan ran to my feet and meowed and circled.

"What's the matter? Are you hungry? I'll get you cat food right now, don't worry."

I took the cat food to the side of the cat food bowl, but...

The cat food bowl is full.

"Meow meow--"

Meow-chan was still spinning around my feet, very different from the usual way of ignoring me. Could it be some kind of disease? Will there be a pet hospital in this small town?

I don't know what's going on... I'll ask Sakura what to do tomorrow.

Of course, I'm going to quit the game and eat something.

[Do you want to archive? 】

【yes】

[Do you want to continue the game? 】

"exit the game."

"..."

"exit the game."

"..."

"quit……"

I kept repeating, but the system didn't give me any response.

"what happened?"

The logout menu is intact in front of me, but it seems like a bug. No matter how I click to save and leave, there is no response. The space of Sakura Avenue that I have been used to exists without any change.

"Why can't you go offline?"

My heart seemed to be entangled, and fear filled my body.

I can't quit the game? !

How can this be? Am I going to be stuck on this cherry blossom trail forever and can't move?

No no no that's absolutely impossible.

"Continue the game."

I had no choice but to try to continue. What kind of bug is this! Get over today and try again in the morning——

When I opened my eyes again, the glare of the sun shone on my face, but I was in no mood to reach out my hand to block it.

"Meow--"

I was taken aback by the sudden appearance of Miao Jiang, but I have no time to deal with it now.

What's going on, I have to go out and see...

The moment I opened the door, Meow Sauce also rushed out with me, is it unexpectedly abnormal today?

"Meow sauce, you—"

It held a piece of paper in its mouth, and a bunch of incomprehensible things were drawn crookedly on it.

I picked up the piece of paper, turned it over, and finally managed to make out that the figures on it were Chinese characters. When will cats know how to write?

"Wait to crack the program, be careful of those around you."

At this moment, my mind went blank.
