Chapter 24 [Burial of Love ~ Xiao Mo]

"Can you pinch your face?"

Guo Mo, who had played the previous game, was very surprised when he first entered the game and saw that the protagonist's image could be changed.

Although you can only change your hairstyle, hair color and face shape, and there are not many built-in options in the game, it is still countless times better than the previous game.

Oh my god!

When he thought of the protagonist of the previous work "Study Simulator" whose image was so abstract that it was difficult to describe in words, he couldn't help but want to vomit.

What kind of aesthetics is that?

What I mean is, if you can't draw, you don't have to draw. Is it difficult to pay a professional painter? There is no need to torture everyone with such abstraction!

His only dissatisfaction with "Study Simulator" was probably the rough and shoddy game graphics and the crude and abstract character images.

Fortunately, the new game has a brand new look! The game art problems that he had criticized for a long time were finally solved in "Living with Others Simulator".

Nickname: Zang Ai ~ Xiao Mo Gender: Male With side bangs and grass green hair color, he looks like a non-mainstream "lonely boy" in the 2000s.

Putting on the protagonist's standard red school uniform, Guo Mo was very satisfied. This was the effect he wanted.

"I'm vomiting. What's this Shamatte..."

"The Funeral Love Family has revived again?"

"Just woke up. May I ask what year is this? Did everyone watch the Beijing Olympics?"

The barrage of comments continued to complain about Guo Mo's weird aesthetic, and the new viewers in the live broadcast room were all shocked by the retro look.

"You know nothing, this is my youth!"

Guo Mo snorted, too lazy to pay attention to these viewers who didn't understand the trend, created a new save file and entered the game directly.

There is a cutscene at the beginning of the game.

"You are in high school now. For various reasons, you have to live with your aunt, who is dozens of kilometers away from home..."

"My aunt's house is very big and luxuriously decorated. The tiles on the floor reflect your uneasy expression. You are very nervous and your palms are full of sweat..."

The cutscene is not long, only about 2 minutes.

In this animation, the background of the game is mainly explained, that is, the causes and consequences of the protagonist going to his aunt's house to study.

To put it simply.

[Burial of Love ~ Xiao Mo] was admitted to the best high school in the city, but it was too far from home and he had never lived on campus, so his parents were not very reassured.

An aunt who lived in the city, very close to the school, offered to take the protagonist in. His parents thought that having a relative to help take care of him was better than having him live in the school, so they entrusted their son to her.

Then the summer vacation ended, and both parents went out to work to earn money for their son's future college education. [Zang Ai ~ Xiao Mo] followed his aunt to the bustling city center...

The game officially begins! On the first day of the new semester, Xiao Mo woke up from his comfortable bed and opened the door to find that his aunt, uncle and cousin were still asleep.

At this point the game has multiple routes to choose from:

【Making breakfast for my aunt’s family】

【Wandering around】

[Stay in the room and wait for my aunt and her family to wake up]

Since it was still early and he didn't have to report to school yet, Guo Mo said confidently based on his gaming experience: "Is there any need to think about this? It must be doing housework to improve my impression!"

The name of the game is "Living Under Someone Else's Roof", which means living in someone else's house. So you have to behave well to win praise from your aunt and uncle, right?

"Out for a stroll?"

Seeing a comment asking him to go out, Guo Mo couldn't help but smile: "Brother, what are you thinking about? How can you go out? If your aunt and uncle call you for dinner but can't find you, they will blame you to death!"

"Can't you just come back before dinner?"

"You're right, but do you know when my aunt and the others will wake up?"

After answering the questions in the comments, Guo Mo chose the first route without hesitation, which was to get up early and make breakfast for his aunt's family to improve their favorability.

What he didn't expect was...

I thought this option would greatly change my aunt's family's view of him and gain a lot of favorability.

But because he had never used new kitchen appliances, not only did he make a mess of breakfast, but his uncle and cousin didn't even look at it and chose to buy breakfast on the way to work/school.

Cousin: "Tsk! Why are you pretending to be so diligent?"

My uncle looked surprised: "If you can't cook, don't try to be brave. Look at what you have done to the kitchen."

Guo Mo was full of questions.

No, aren't we relatives? I made breakfast for you out of kindness, it's ok if you don't praise me, but why are you so sarcastic?

"Hahaha!"

"I told you a long time ago that going out is the wisest choice. You're still trying to win my uncle's favor. I'm dying of laughter..."

"Aunt is the kindest person! My uncle and cousin don't eat the food cooked by the protagonist, only my aunt eats it!"

"My aunt is indeed kind and beautiful, but unfortunately she met the wrong person..."

Guo Mo had no time to read the comments. As he was belittled by his uncle and cousin, his attention was completely focused on the lower left corner.

[Self-esteem -10]

Almost one tenth of it dropped in an instant?

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Now he was panicking. According to the game's novice guide, self-esteem was a key value that determined whether one could pass the game. If it was lower than 50, it would produce negative status. He couldn't let this thing drop!

"What should I do next?"

After being cheated once, Guo Mo chose to trust the barrage and asked them for any advice.

As a result, the opinions in the comments were not unanimous.

Someone said that you can go to school now, recognize all your classmates first, and then trigger the tasks one by one.

Some people also said that they were not in a hurry to go to school, but went to the street to open the map first, so that they could work and earn money later.

Someone else suggested, go to school? Go to a weird school!

I just took the pocket money my aunt gave me and played in the Internet cafe until dark...

After ruling out the obviously incorrect answer of surfing the Internet, Guo Mo felt that going to school was the most important thing. After all, he was a good student in the eyes of his parents and relatives, so how could he be late on the first day of school?

Let’s go to school!

Burial of Love~Xiao Mo and his cousin go to the same school, but his cousin forbids him to talk to her at school, nor does she allow him to reveal their relationship or the fact that they live together.

"Why?" Zang Ai ~ Xiao Mo didn't understand.

"Because it's embarrassing!"

The cousin's cold answer made Guo Mo, who was sitting in front of the computer, so angry that his nose was crooked.

"What's that look? Have you never seen non-mainstream people? My Zangai family is always the center of attention wherever we go. How can it be embarrassing?"

Forget it, let’s go meet new classmates.

Not wanting to argue with this rebellious cousin, Guo Mo controlled the character to walk towards the classroom, intending to listen to the advice from the barrage, get to know a few more new classmates, and start subsequent side quests.

result……

No one wanted to talk to him.

The classmates were chatting animatedly, but as soon as he started to interact, the atmosphere became dull, making everyone feel awkward. They didn't understand where this new classmate came from.

"Oh! They are all acquaintances who know each other, or they are from the same junior high school and the same dormitory. I am the only one from outside."

After figuring out why he was treated coldly, Guo Mo did not give up on building good relationships with other classmates.

The first time is new, the second time is familiar!

It is normal that they are not familiar with each other and have nothing to talk about on the first day. Once he is thick-skinned enough to talk to them a few more times, I believe these classmates will soon accept him and assign him tasks.

"It's just a routine. I'm an old RPG player, how can I not understand it?"

This time, there was no need for the barrage to point out. Guo Mo said confidently, "Just wait. I will definitely use my sincerity to impress these students and make them open their hearts to me!"

This game isn't that difficult, is it? Apart from the fact that he chose the wrong route at the beginning and lost a little bit of his self-esteem, he didn't think it was that difficult!

It's time to show some real skills!
