"Why...... Why didn't the simulation end? ”

Asa Kazama was a little dazed.

When he died in the game before, didn't he just quit the simulation?

But why, this time, the simulation continues.

[Your parents, who are far away in Kumamoto Prefecture, came to Tokyo to attend your funeral, and she received your parents as a wife in mourning clothes]

[The Shiina family was very worried about her mental state, and comforted her for a long time, and suddenly one day, Shiina Kaiyin told her family that she was going to continue your unfinished research]

[Mr. Shiina agreed, if the high-intensity work could dilute the pain in her heart, it might also be a good thing]

[Because of the previous accident, worried that someone would forcibly interfere with her research with violence, Shiina Kaiyin entrusted her father to prepare a women's pistol for her]

[With the full support of her family, she took over the gene stabilization reagent project you led before her death and continued to carry out research]

The scene unfolds.

This time, Kazama Asaba felt like he had turned into a ghost.

Quietly follow Shiina Kaine's side.

He watched as she studied without sleep or food.

Watch her push the project forward with great difficulty.

Watch as she rejects one admirer after another and immerses herself in research.

Sometimes, there will be some people who don't know that she is married, and they still call her Shiina Haiyin, but she always emphasizes that she should be called Asa Yu Haiyin.

One year, two years, three years......

She is still so beautiful, and the years seem to have left no trace on her.

Unbeknownst to Shiina, Christmas Eve was the last time she would see herself in her life.

However, it wasn't the last time Asa Ha Kazama saw her.

She still lives in the makeshift accommodation that Kazama Asaba had bought, but she has been in the lab for more and more time.

In the third year after graduating, she became a rising star in the field of gene therapy, which attracted much attention from the world, with the number of T-class academic papers and Lancet papers that were almost regarded as brushes.

In the past year, she has led several gene therapies for local cellular degenerative diseases, which have become the only hope for many tormented patients, and when the first patient is cured by her, he finally sees her smile again.

I don't know when people will respectfully call her "Dr. Asaba", and every time she hears a patient say this, her smile will be brighter.

[Time flies, another ten years have passed, and Shiina Kaiyin has become the brightest pearl in the crown in the field of genetic diseases]

[In the past year, the news of the genius disease caused by the void gene has spread all over the world, and the gene stabilization reagent project led by Shiina Kaiyin has also been officially completed]

Asaba Kazama watched her hold the finished reagent and hide in the corner of the laboratory for a long time, her heart aching.

Kazama, who had turned into a ghost, stood beside her, and I don't know how many times she let out such a sigh:

"Let it go, it's time for you to forget all about it and start a new life."

But she couldn't hear it.

The day after the results were verified, Haine Shiina released the technical details of the Gene Stabilization Reagent to the world, and the world was in an uproar.

An unprecedented storm of public opinion swept in.

[Public opinion about the ‹Genius Disease› has caused an uproar around the world since it was revealed. 】

[The gene-edited newborn experiments announced by various countries have caused an unprecedented storm of public opinion]

[5.5% survival chance, as well as a higher natural awakening survival rate than those born with genius disease, so that every genius who survived› was full of blood]

[It wasn't until the advent of genetic stabilization agents that the survival rate was increased to more than 15%, and even as long as the treatment was timely, even if the gene awakening failed, it would undoubtedly change from certain death to paralysis in bed]

[At this point, compared with controllable genetic diseases, they are no longer genetic diseases, but the cradle of genius]

[Although it is still extremely cruel, the era of the adjuster is coming]

[In October of this year, Hakuin High School invited Shiina Kaiyin as a well-known alumnus to visit the school at the cultural festival]

The scene unfolds.

Kazama Asaba was stunned when he heard the news.

He knew that she hadn't been back to Hakuin High School for many years, and he thought that this time Shiina Haiyin would still refuse, but Shiina Haiyin said to the other end of the phone:

"Okay, I'll prepare in advance."

He nodded, "You should move on." ”

But for some reason, he was happy and a little melancholy.

[This year's cultural festival is very grand, and the principal personally leads the team to take Shiina Kaiyin to re-walk Hakuin High School, which has undergone a lot of changes]

[When passing by the exhibition hall, the principal took her to the place where her graduation photos were displayed]

She quietly looked at herself who was still young and beautiful at that time, chatting with her entourage, and the whole person seemed to be much more relaxed.

Only Asa Ha Kazama quietly looked at the photo of his own session next to him, and said with emotion:

"It's okay, if you don't look at it, you won't be upset."

Until she left, she never glanced at the photos of her own year.

There are a lot of alumni returning to school this year.

She said goodbye to the alumni she knew one by one, and those alumni had an impression of Asaba Kazama, and many people knew about her and him.

When someone talked about him, Asaba Kazama couldn't help but be curious, and floated over to see what the senior sister would say.

"It's been a long time." She said with a sigh.

And then there was no more follow-up.

Asa Kazama was relieved, but felt a little bitter.

As time passed, the bonfire was over, the dance music was still there, and she sat there until it was over, and then she got up to leave.

Suddenly, she stopped and glanced back in the direction of the rooftop.

That's where they used to dance together.

She smiled and turned into the night.

Asa Feather Kazama was a little uncomfortable, but she was also happy for her.

"Once the terms are drawn up, bring them to me to sign." In the car, Shiina said to her female assistant.

The assistant handed over a contract, which was a distribution list of all the assets owned by Shiina Kaiyin.

Before Kazama could see clearly, she signed it and handed it to her assistant to wrap it.

"Let's drive."

Vehicles are becoming more and more sparse on the road.

Kazama Asaba was a little curious about where she was going.

Until he saw a cemetery.

The car stopped.

Shiina Haiyin picked up a satchel, took out a bouquet of flowers from the back of the car, and walked towards the depths of the cemetery.

Kazama Asaba guessed something.

Eventually, Shiina stopped in front of a tombstone.

The stele is engraved with the large characters of "Asa Yu Family".

She placed the flowers in front of the grave.

She opened her handbag and pulled out a stack of pamphlets and cards.

His personal number card, her personal number card.

His driver's license, her driver's license.

His health insurance card, her health insurance card.

His real estate title deed, her real estate title deed.

A copy of the household register of the Asaba family.

Certificate of acceptance of the marriage of the two persons.

His notarized cremation certificate.

……

All of them were thrown into the brazier by her.

She pulled out her phone and chuckled softly.

Kazama Asakura, who was standing beside her, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly, the music of "Mozart's Minuet in D major" sounded.

He used to put it all in.

Only then did he notice that the clothes Shiina Haiyin was wearing seemed to be the little white dress at the school festival that year.

She bent slightly.

In the silence, the dance music quietly sounded, as if in his company, the woman danced alone in the empty cemetery.

Kazama Asa subconsciously stepped forward.

A cemetery under the murmuring moonlight.

The Revenant and the Maiden.

The two lines of life and death seem to blur at this moment.

She and his hands didn't touch each other, they just danced to the music.

The fire in the brazier burned out, and the dance music ended there.

She subconsciously leaned back, and Asa Kazama reached out to wrap his hand around her waist, just as he had danced before.

But he couldn't touch him.

Fortunately, she reacted, stumbled back a few steps, and finally did not fall to the ground.

She let out a long sigh.

At night, she seemed to be tired and leaned quietly on the tombstone.

She looked at the table below, and the cemetery was closing.

"It's time to go home."

She gently stroked the three words of [Asa Yu Family], and many emotions in her eyes calmed down.

It's as if I've finally been able to shake off a heavy load.

"It's good to put it down." Asa Yu Kazama squatted in front of her, seeing her clear eyes, knowing that she couldn't hear, but said with relief: "Haiyin, be happy." ”

Then, Shiina Haiyin's hand reached into the satchel.

The well-maintained and sleek women's pistol was removed from the bag.

The dream that left him for thirteen years passed away quietly like a summer shower on the oil road, without a trace.

This is her farewell.

There is no Changting Ancient Road, and there is no persuasion to drink a glass of wine.

The assistant's phone call happened to come: "Dr. Asaba, the cemetery is closing." ”

The loading sound sounded, and she pressed the pistol to her temple.

Shiina Haiyin said softly, "You are wrong, it's Mrs. Asaba." ”

She hung up and hugged his tombstone sideways.

In this night, which is the same as a normal day, the crows flutter their wings, and some people continue to move forward, while others choose to stay in yesterday.

Thereupon......

"Bang !!"

The gun went off.

The moonlight poured in the cemetery, reflecting the tombstone of the Asaba family, and she in her dream revealed a quiet and happy sleeping face.
