Chapter 156(1/4)
When Miyano Shiho, who had turned on the medical madman (?) mode, was finally sent away, Furukawa Kumisa was already lying dead on the bed.
Fang Guling pulled the quilt for her, "Are you okay?"
Furukawa Kumisa rubbed his forehead, and after a while he suppressed the waves of weakness all over his body, and regained the strength to reply: "It's okay... I just feel a little weak recently..."
Jiang Gu Ling looked at her weak look, shook his head, and stood up, "You can rest for a while, I won't disturb..."
Before he could finish speaking, the hand hanging by his side was suddenly held by someone. He lowered his head and saw Furukawa Kumisa's hand.
Her hands were soft and without any strength - that was the effect of the long-term injection of relaxants, and also the effect of the toxins in her body that had not been released.
Those hands that were once able to hold an adult man's neck with one hand and had the strength of an iron wall are now unable to hold even ordinary objects.
Jianggu Ling has never had such a strong urge to kill a certain person and whip his corpse, then throw away his ashes.
Then he remembered... Gin had been crushed to ashes by her own hands.
This gentle squeeze immediately softened his tempered heart. He sighed resignedly, held her hand back, and sat back on the edge of her bed.
"I'm sorry, just now I..."
"Sorry, I..."
When the words came out, they were relatively stunned.
Furukawa Kumisa smiled and said, "You go ahead."
Fang Guling slowly brought her hand to his lips and kissed her gently, "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now... I mean, I shouldn't... be so cruel to you..."
The breath between Jianggu Ling's teeth made her feel a little itchy, and her fingertips moved, "No, Ling, I'm not angry, on the contrary, I'm very happy."
She stretched out her fingertips and poked his dazed cheek: "You are willing to tell me the truth, and you are willing to show me your 'real' side - just like you promised me before. This is more boring than anything else you can do."
You don't say anything in your heart, you just accommodate me, which makes me happier."
Jianggu Ling saw that she had something more to say, so he didn't interrupt, he just held her hand and listened quietly to her words.
"You just asked me if I have ever thought about you and cared about you..." She raised her eyes and looked at his precipitated purple eyes, "Without you, without you... I wouldn't be able to survive that long."
Furukawa Kumisa narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was recalling something, "Gin is a madman. He tried to use imprisonment and... physical violence to force me and tame me. He locked me in the room, and for a long time at the beginning
For a while, there was only violence and despair in my life."
When Furukawa Kumisa talked about this memory, his tone was calm, but his slightly trembling fingertips still revealed the slightest bit of his thoughts.
Fang Guling held her hand tighter and opened his mouth to comfort her, but was interrupted by her.
"In such a life without any anchor, no time, no friends, no one to talk to...it almost drove me crazy."
She was not exaggerating. In fact, this was her life during the first half month when Gin imprisoned her.
There is no daylight, only despair and fear.
Furukawa Kumisa is not a superwoman. She lost the system she relied on for survival when she was unprepared. Her plan was completely disrupted and she was unable to move forward. Coupled with Gin's daily abuse - whether it was physical or psychological, she was almost there.
limit.
She played the character who gradually fell into Stockholm syndrome and was immersed in it for a time.
——Is it really better to give up? You see, Gin still loves you and at least wants you. As long as you obey him and stop thinking about other things, he will treat you well and all these difficulties will go away.
Once the solution is solved, you can live a relatively free life and no longer have this fear of darkness...
If you want to deceive Gin, superficial acting skills are obviously not enough.
For a time she became one with the character she played.
"I can only force myself to divert my attention and think about other things, such as... you."
She closed her eyes and seemed to be back in the fantasy of that time.
"Sometimes I recall everything that happened to us...with you, with Shuichi, with Matsuda, and Kudo..."
The beautiful images in her memory were chewed over and over again, becoming the only glimmer of light she could hold on to in the darkness.
Fangtani Ling leaned over and hugged her, his breath was hot, and he was trembling more than she had been remembering all this.
Furukawa Kumisa was still talking to himself: "What I think about most is the night we experienced on the plane to Hokkaido."
Over the years, she has rarely encountered situations where her life was at stake and she could still "escape from death".
In the impressions of her previous lives, she always faced death and exited this world at this juncture.
Only that night, they snatched 192 lives from the hands of death, including themselves.
She opened her eyes and hugged Jiang Gu Ling back: "Zero, that was my first time with someone accompanying me on the journey to hell."
She took a deep breath and said, "We won that time, so I will definitely win this time."
Later, she began to imagine that there were other people in the empty room, sometimes Akai Shuichi, sometimes Matsuda Jinpei, sometimes Kudo Shinichi chattering about Sherlock Holmes, sometimes Furitan Rei with the door half open.
There was the sound of cooking in the kitchen, and occasionally Hui Yuan Ai typed on the keyboard and muttered a few words, "Please be gentle, it's too noisy."
——As long as she can survive this period, these will come back to her.
"Zero, I am not strong, I am also very fragile." She sighed, "I am indeed prepared to die, but it is you who support me to come back alive."
She touched Rei Fukitani's head hanging on her shoulder and said, "I apologize to you for my own decision, but it is indeed my own obsession. Unfortunately, no one can help me."
As she spoke, she raised Jianggu Ling's head and suddenly smiled at him. Her smile faded away from the gloom and paleness, and finally returned to its former cheerful look.
"But most importantly, I'm back."
Fang Gu Ling pecked her on the forehead and said with a bit of sob in his tone: "Well, welcome back."
"Congratulations to the host. The favorability of the target Jiangu Ling towards the host has increased by 8 points. The current total favorability towards the host from Jiangu Ling is 100 points. The strategy is completed."
"Congratulations to the host, for achieving perfect clearance of all the strategy targets in Kexue World and obtaining the hidden achievement 'Don't let anyone go'."
Furukawa Kumisa:...Huh?
She was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that the system seemed to have said that if all the targets were favorable, some hidden achievements could be unlocked.
"Host! Master!!! Ahhhhhhhh, host!!!"
Furukawa Kumisa decisively blocked the excited screams in his head and continued to enjoy the peaceful time of rebirth after disaster in the arms of Rei Fukiya.
But Feng Guling let her go: "These things have passed, your body needs a good rest."
Furukawa Kumisa nodded, "If you have anything to do, go ahead and you don't have to accompany me."
He shook his head, "It's okay, I'll leave after you fall asleep."
Furukawa Kumisa then turned over, closed his eyes, and let himself sink into darkness.
——Then pull out the system unlock screen.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh-"
"If you call me again, I will permanently block you."
"——Master..." The last sound of the system turned into a downbeat of grievance, but it still lowered the volume obediently.
"Good news, good news! We, the host, have obtained a hidden achievement! Do you know, this is..."
Furukawa Kumisa was so noisy that he had a headache, "Let's get to the point."
"The point is that this hidden achievement can unlock new functions of the system. Well... to put it simply, I can fulfill two of your wishes."
Furukawa Kisa: "Huh? The function of hidden achievements is to upgrade you from a high-tech system to Aladdin's magic lamp?"
"'Grant two wishes' is just my brief summary. If you must listen, the full name of this function is..."
"No need to thank you," Furukawa Kumisa quickly interrupted, "Two wishes, right? Are there any restrictions?"
System: "...As long as the system can do it, there should be no restrictions...right?"
It said this with a bit of hesitation, not because it didn't believe in the system's capabilities, but because it knew Furukawa Kumisa.
No matter how normal the functions are, there may be weird bugs.
Furukawa Kumisa thought for a while, "Okay, then I can just say yes?"
The system thought for a while: "If you must say it, I am the strategy system after all. You'd better say something related to strategy... For example, didn't you always want to go home before?"
Furukawa Kumisa laughed: "How high is my favorability level now?"
The system looked at it and said, "Um...your strategy points in the five worlds have all been maxed out, and the favorability that was deducted has been added back. Now you have a total of nearly 600 favorability points."
Furukawa Kumisa sighed: "And I only need 250 favor points to return to my original world - what makes you think that I will use such a precious hidden function for something that only requires 250 favor points?"
?”
System: "...Okay, what wish do you want to make?"
"The first wish..." she drawled, "...give me three more, no, ten wishes!"
System:... Just look, it will know.
*
By the time everything was settled, Furukawa Kumisa's body slowly recovered under the systematic care, and another month had passed.
This month has been a rare leisure time for her in so many years. She does not have any favorability tasks to push her, and she does not have to face bullets and conspiracy. She only eats and sleeps every day. Her only task is to take good care of her body.
