Hoshino Aoi read every episode carefully, and even enjoyed the content in the comment section, but it was a pity for the system that shared the perspective with her.
It doesn't quite understand. Most of the content in the comics are things that Hoshino Aoi has personally experienced, so why does she read it so carefully?
The key is that she reads slowly, and it has to read slowly along with her. So when will it ever find the answer?!
Thinking of this, it had to speak up and interrupt her interest.
"Host, aren't these things you've personally experienced? Why are you still looking at them so closely?"
However, Hoshino Aoi said:
"Yeah, it's my personal experience, but it's from my perspective! It's completely different."
As Hoshino Aoi spoke, her eyes never left the big screen.
Seeing this, although the system was anxious, it did not dare to say anything, for fear that Hoshino Aoi would discover its urging and turn around to close the comic forum.
Fortunately, Hoshino Aoi quickly finished reading the comment section and started watching the next episode.
"As for sandwiches, I recommend the ham sandwich."
Although I could roughly imagine what he looked like in my mind, Hoshino Aoi was lowering her head at the time, and the hood was blocking her view, so the expression on Amuro Toru's face was far less intuitive than what I see now.
In the picture, he had revealed his Bourbon pupils, which made people instantly understand the identity of the visitor.
[It's someone from the winery!]
[It can’t really be my sister Aoi, right?]
But the next second, when the hooded man appeared in the picture, people in the comment section knew that they had guessed wrong.
But some people noticed something was wrong.
"I'm saying, have you all forgotten something? Masuyama Wasabi is also from the distillery, and Masuyama... if I remember correctly, Pisco's last name is Masuyama, right? So, is it possible that Masuyama Wasabi's disappearance wasn't a true disappearance, but rather that she became Middles?"
[That's impossible... If she were still alive, why would Ai commemorate her for no reason?]
[Maybe she just saw the sunflowers, thought they were pretty, and bought them without giving it much thought?]
[I don't believe it! Kwai Li is real!]
But the next second——
[Ahhhhhhhhhh!! Let go of that Touko and let me come!!]
Hoshino Aoi blinked and skipped the comment.
Sure enough, what happened next was her grabbing Toru Amuro's collar and pulling him towards her.
There were several close-ups in a row.
There were close-ups of her hands, the wrinkles on Touko's collar, and the honey-colored collarbone hidden under her shirt, faintly revealed by her movements...
Aaaaaaaaahhhhh!!
I didn’t think anything of it when I was doing it, but looking at it like this, I feel really ashamed!
Aoi Hoshino let out a sharp explosion in her heart.
In particular, the next scene also shows Toru Amuro leaning forward and subconsciously supporting himself with his hands on the cash register.
His bony, powerful-looking hands supported his body steadily. His slender legs, wrapped in jeans, rested lightly on the edge of the cashier counter. His face, seemingly innocent, actually held a hint of provocation...
very good.
I'm dead.
He was poisoned to death by Touko.
Hoshino Aoi covered her burning cheeks with her hands, lowered her head, and almost found a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Seeing this, the system became very anxious.
It comforted him repeatedly:
"It's okay, host. This is all fake. Just treat him as your old paper husband, except this one can move and breathe."
"but……"
The system interrupted her directly:
"Didn't you do well before? When we first met, you even confessed your feelings and asked for a relationship. Why are you being shy now?"
Hoshino Aoi also noticed this, but she quickly understood what she was thinking.
After all, just as the system said, they all move, breathe, and have their own emotions.
When she first came into this world, due to system reasons, she had no sense of reality.
So when dealing with Toru Amuro and the others, he subconsciously treated them as the paper people of the past.
Although I like them and do care about them, that is not treating them as real people.
Even because she had only used the character cards 'Hoshino Aoi' and 'Masuyama Wasabi' for a short time, she had no sense of reality for this world until Hoshino Aoi became 'Middles'.
It was also for this reason that she could confess to him naturally and tell him directly how much she liked him.
But this time the experience was far less short than before.
She used the identity of "Middles" for more than a year and spent more than a year with Morobushi Jingguang. There was no way that Hoshino Aoi could treat them as paper people without their own thoughts anymore.
So subconsciously, she divided the world into two parts.
One part is Amuro Toru and others, representing reality.
The other part is other people in this world, and among them are divided into the protagonists and passers-by.
They represent falsehood.
After all, how could the real world possibly develop around the plot, or around the so-called protagonist?
Coupled with the reckless behavior she has always shown since she crossed over, Hoshino Aoi subconsciously chose to reject that answer.
but……
Thinking that the system had been leading her in the direction of this world being fake, and even interrupted her anxiously when she said "but", Hoshino Aoi had to reconsider the answer she least wanted to hear.
If this world is really a real world, and all the people who died directly or indirectly because of her are real, then what should she do...
This thought only lingered in her mind for a moment before being tossed aside by Aoi Hoshino, who had rarely felt the urge to escape. She turned her attention to the system's strange attitude towards this matter, but remained calm on the surface.
"You're right, I was overthinking it."
She shrugged her shoulders and said as if she didn't care:
"But it's not my fault. This world is just too real."
“No matter how real it looks, fake is fake and can never be real.”
Hearing this, Hoshino Aoi slowly lowered her eyes.
"Yeah... no matter how real it is, fake will always be fake..."
On the other hand, the truth is always true. Even if you don’t want to admit it, it will never become false.
In that case, let’s go and confirm it.
perhaps……
Hoshino Aoi felt that she seemed to have found the weakness of the system, but considering the existence of world consciousness, she did not allow herself to continue thinking about it, but continued to read comics.
