Sakita Gokawa exchanged the points he had just earned for two character cards.

Then I clicked on the life counseling [price depends on the topic].

He was very curious about this thing, and at the same time wanted to know that when he asked a question worth more than 1000 points, the system's decision was not to answer or to settle the points directly as -x, which was considered his temporary arrears.

The shop page disappears, and a simple line of blue letters appears in front of Sakita Gokawa:

[Loaded Life Counseling Service]

Then the white light flashed, and the blue words disappeared.

There is no question box and no telling him how to ask a question to the system.

Sakita Gokawa tries to reopen the system page and finds that he has lost contact with the system.

“......”

"Do you want me to look up at the ceiling and ask out loud?" He looked up, stared at the ceiling of his bedroom for a moment, and chose to give up.

"Here it is."

A female voice rang out from behind him.

Sakita Gokawa hurriedly looked back at the bed behind him and found a mature and plump woman lying on his side on his bed, looking at him with a smile.

Wearing a light nightdress, you can see the style of underwear inside, and the long silky linen hair is tied on the chest, outlining a seductive curve.

Sakita Gokawa couldn't help but glance at her chest a few more times.

'Why not a suspender nightdress?' ’

Even if the fabric is light and thin, there is still a difference between a layer of veil, damn it. ’

Suppressing the remnants of his heart, Sakita Gokawa walked to the door of the house with a calm face, put his hand on the doorknob, and said politely:

"I'm sorry, I don't have any special services, please don't show up in my house out of thin air without my permission, it will bother me a lot."

The woman chuckled, and her words were full of temptation to provoke sin:

"This special service is indeed what you ordered~"

Sakita Gokawa was stunned in his heart,

Is this life counseling different from what I first thought? ’

The so-called life counseling is not used to answer his doubts, but to conjure up a woman and discuss life with him in depth?

I didn't expect this system to look serious, but in fact it was actually very dirty.

The purpose of this kind of service is not to tempt the host to cross the psychological barrier and be a scumbag who does not care about his kidneys......

It's better to just change the name to the scumbag system.

However, he must not be a scumbag, and he naturally has to refuse this kind of energy-consuming service.

His expression gradually became serious, and he asked seriously:

"Is this special service charged by the length of the time or by the number of times?"

"Pay-per-use." The woman replied rather politely.

......

Saki Gokawa thought for a long time, and in order to further determine what exactly this service was, he continued to ask, "How many points do I need to spend for the question I just asked?" ”

"There's no charge for questions about system settings."

‘......’

It seems that he is overthinking.

For some reason, Sakita Gokawa felt a sigh of relief at the same time, but he was inexplicably a little disappointed in his heart.

"Who are you?"

Since there is no charge for the question of system setting, it is equivalent to a humanoid manual, so I naturally have to have a good in-depth discussion with her.

"I am the consciousness of life counseling in the host's love system, and the persona is randomly generated according to the female image in the host's memory."

Sakita Gokawa grasped the point of the words: "Then can I decide the image that manifests?" ”

"Yes, you can use your consciousness to confirm the image you want to manifest before starting the service."

"Is it okay to have any kind of image?"

"Yes."

.......

Sakita Gokawa was satisfied after making sure once again that whether it was JK, a nurse, a knight, or a magical girl, they could all manifest it.

Then he pulled the consciousness body and asked a lot of questions about the system settings and functions, and while getting the answers, he inexplicably had a feeling of "it seems that the system is not bad without a manual".

White prostitution is still cool.

......

It was getting completely dark.

The Wuhe family's house is not in the central city, and the surrounding buildings are the same as their family, with only scattered indoor lights and street lamps that illuminate the street quietly emitting light.

The city in the distance is brightly lit, and even if he just lies in front of his bedroom window and looks at it from afar, he can faintly feel the prosperity of the city.

It takes 5 minutes to walk home after shopping at the market, and every day to go to Bakugui High School, you need to walk to a nearby station and then take a 10-minute train.

For him, who has always lived in the city where bicycles run faster than cars, this calm pace of life is very comfortable and fresh.

Sakita Gokawa looked at the night sky—he had looked up like this countless times in his previous life.

But this time, the mentality has changed slightly.

It's ridiculous to say that he has the motivation to live because of his fantastical encounter.

"Why did you save me?"

The boy's clear voice sounded in the bedroom, and the voice did not have the vitality that a teenager should have, but a sense of twilight.

Clear, but lifeless, like an empty shell.

"Which time?"

“......”

The bedroom was quiet again.

In his previous life, he often wondered - what is the meaning of human life?

[People will die eventually, the earth will be swallowed by the sun sooner or later, and the universe will one day die and be silent. 】

[Compared to the vast space and the time close to eternity, but the life of 100 years is too small and powerless. 】

He believed in science, in Newton and Einstein, in the great scientists in the history of mankind.

But science,

But it could only make him feel his own insignificance and despair.

Because of science, he doesn't believe in the afterlife, he doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, he doesn't believe in heaven and hell......

So he feared death and at the same time longed for it.

【The World After Death】

[What does it look like?]

[Maybe it's nothingness]

[After all, this is science]

In his previous life, he jumped off the bridge with such thoughts, drowning in the cold river and endless darkness.

Sakita Gokawa slowly turned around and looked silently at the consciousness manifested by the system.

"You've killed yourself twice." The other party looked up into his eyes and said in a gentle voice, "The first time was to jump into the river, and the second time was to swallow sleeping pills." ”

"I'm not the one who swallowed sleeping pills."

"It's you."

“......”

The boy was silent again, this time for a longer time.

Sakita Gokawa committed suicide by swallowing sleeping pills, and before that he had moderate depression.

Isolated, misunderstood, hidden inside......

There are people close to him, but he doesn't dare to open his mouth to express his heart.

He carefully recalled the boy in this body's memory,

Seems to have almost the same idea as him.

[I can't understand the meaning of life]

No

That's what he is......

"In other words, after I committed suicide in my previous life, I was reborn in neon as Sakita Gogawa, and it took sixteen years to unlock the memories of my previous life?"

The tone was uncertain, and he was in a somewhat complicated mood right now.

The consciousness continues to report truthfully in a gentle voice:

"The system was loaded five days ago, and it lasted sixteen years and three hundred and ten days, and at the same time unlocked the memories of the past life. Since the host has died, the system automatically consumes 100w of initial points to resurrect the host and enter the locked state. ”

“......”

Saki Gokawa opened her mouth, and she didn't know where to vomit for a while, but her mood was much better.

It is not difficult to guess the reason why the system unlocks after receiving a date invitation, after all, the name is called the love system.

But

Is it the system that takes nearly seventeen years to load? RUNNING 2077 WITH WIN95 WOULDN'T BE SO SLOW.

Fortunately, the time of death is relatively short, and if he waits until he is buried in the soil to complete the loading, does he still have to think about how to climb out of the coffin after resurrection?

Also, who genius came up with the setting that the memories of the past life can only be unlocked after the system is loaded? Does he know what he's done?

Seventeen years! The seventeen-year-old who was reborn next door is worth hundreds of millions!

.......

"End of consultation."

After complaining frantically in his heart, he spat out four words with an expressionless face.

The white light flashed in front of him, the consciousness on the bed disappeared out of thin air, and a line of system prompts appeared:

[Points consumed for this life counseling service: 1000]

[Host currently has points: 0]

......

At ten o'clock in the evening, the street lights on both sides of the street were completely extinguished, and most of the houses were also turned off. I don't know if it's Hyun-sook's wife waiting for her overtime husband to come home, or if it's a diligent student who is still trying to brush up on the questions and read a book......

The whole world was silent, as if it could hear the whispers of the stars in the sky.

"Well,"

He glanced at the empty bottle of sleeping pills in the trash can and smiled softly.

In fact, even if there is a system and a memory from the beginning.

He can't do anything big, even if he's worth hundreds of millions, it's just unscientific and unreasonable.

I want to live not because he has a system, but because he finally sees that there is something in this world that science can't explain.

Saki Gokawa breathed a long sigh of relief and remembered a research topic he had abandoned in his previous life:

[In this world, some things are unreasonable. 】

Now he saw the answer.

So far, away from scientific thinking, the future is bright.

He lay down on the bed in a relaxed mood and closed his eyes.

"You don't want me to die......"

Then,

Let's live.
