Are you, as meal replacement users, ready for the consequences?

Page 139

Since all you want is someone like Xiangzi to talk to, and since you've chosen to listen to my one-sided account...

Then you need to be prepared to have the same awareness as someone who also uses meal replacements...

……

They've gone mad, they've really gone mad...

A strong wind blew against Su Shi's face, making her feel cold from the inside out as she rode her bicycle.

For Nagasaki Motoyo, a normal human being, this day was still too surreal.

Having encountered Ningzi, who suffers from mental illness, and genuinely wanting to follow her instructions, he is currently in the process of obeying orders.

Ningzi asked her to get a bicycle, so she actually went to borrow one from a passing senior student.

The senior looked familiar, but Su Shi didn't have time to recall who she was.

She focused solely on sprinting forward, hoping to catch a glimpse of Toyokawa Ningko's back.

Little by little, I got closer and closer to that person.

Su Shi saw it.

A girl who called herself Toyokawa Ningko was standing in the middle of the road waiting for her.

The girl's bangs covered her eyes, but the sensible wind blew them away again.

The streetlights near Ningzi illuminated most of her body, the light so pure it seemed to emanate from heaven.

She's smiling at me.

Su Shi's heart was beating at its fastest speed after the intense exercise, but the moment she saw Ning Zi, her heart, which had been beating wildly just a moment before, stopped beating.

fear.

Nagasaki Motoyo got closer and closer to Toyokawa Neko, and could even see the rise and fall of her chest.

But she involuntarily stepped on the brakes.

fear.

Su Shi felt fear.

An inexplicable unease slowly enveloped her, the surroundings as quiet as a graveyard.

how so…

Su Shi released the brakes and slowly rode towards Toyokawa Ningko.

She tried to greet the other person to dispel her unease, but the more she stared at Toyokawa Ningko, the more stiff her greeting became.

Why is this happening?

The person standing not far away is clearly Toyokawa Ningko.

Isn't she the person I most want to see?

Is that her? It's definitely her...

But why...

Why do we feel afraid?

Su Shi finally decided to push her bicycle forward, her calves aching and her throat feeling like it was on fire.

"Xiao...Ning?"

The fear intensified, and eventually Su Shi broke out in a cold sweat.

"I found the car! I got it from..."

"Su Shi, that's not important. What's important is that you found me."

Toyokawa Ningko tilted her head, her pupils already unfocused.

It's time to take your medicine, take it quickly.

Taking medicine…

Why do we need to take medicine?

"Su Shi, congratulations! You've completed the beginner chapter of 'Goodbye Ningzi'. As a reward, I can answer one of your questions."

"Any question is acceptable?"

"Yes, Ningzi will answer any question Su Shi asks."

"I…"

Su Shi thought that hearing these words would stop her from feeling scared, but as Ning Zi spoke each word, her unease only intensified.

"I want to know... since Ningzi and Xiangzi share the same identity, why does Xiangzi hate me, while Ningzi..."

"Ningzi is behaving strangely? For example, she was mean to you at first but is nice to you now? Is that what you want to ask?"

"Correct."

"This."

Ningzi gestured for Su Shi to get in the car, and then sat in the back seat herself.

"Because of jealousy."

"Although we share the identity of [Xiangzi], and although we are sisters, Xiangzi is jealous of me and jealous of how good Su Shi is to me."

"Jealous? Jealous that I'm good to you?"

"Yes, it's all Su Shi's fault. Actually, Su Shi saw from the beginning that the person you formed a band with was always two different people, right?"

"Do I... do I have one?"

Nagasaki Motoyo's waist was wrapped around again. She wanted to remind Ningko that carrying passengers on the back was against the rules, but Ningko's heart was already pressed against her back, distorted by fear...

And... I knew it from the very beginning?

Is it true or false...? Why don't I even know that I know...?

"It's normal that you don't know, because those involved are often blinded, while bystanders see things clearly. Xiangzi can feel your kindness towards me. It's because when Xiangzi was Xiangzi, she realized she received less than Ningzi did... and I'm her beloved younger sister, she can't bear to hate me, so... Su Shi, that's why Xiangzi hates you..."

"!!!"

So that's how it is!

That's outrageous.

It's almost like telling a fairy tale...

The idea of ​​two sisters playing the same role is already like an urban legend, but adding elements like sisterly love, sisterly hate, mental illness, and wealthy families...

But if you really think back to all the details...

Nagasaki Motoyo began to wonder if she had discovered these things beforehand.

only…

"You just don't dare to think about it. You nip the idea in the bud, which is why I was cold to you on the tram today."

"It's all because I'm very disappointed in you, Su Shi... I thought you had already discovered the truth, but I didn't expect you still couldn't figure it out."

"Ah?! I'm so sorry! Xiao Ning... I really didn't dare to think like that..."

What people long for most is someone to guide them when they are confused... but it is often at this time that people are led astray.

The more Nagasaki Motoyo listened to Toyokawa Neko speak, the more she was bombarded with all sorts of unheard-of information... the more she felt...

It seems that's really how things are...

It turns out it was my fault…

Chapter 178. By the Sea, Motoyo and Neko

It turns out it was my fault...

Motoyo Nagasaki gripped the bicycle handlebars tightly.

Much of the past has been forgotten, but Su Shi remembers clearly only a few scattered, unforgettable things.

For example, the scene of the band gathering together on the day it was formed, or the scene of the father and mother divorcing, and the child wearing a headband in the small house waiting for the mother to come home...

Su Shi had long forgotten many other unimportant things, or rather, things that were no longer important.

Perhaps there really was a fleeting moment of doubt? But you've simply forgotten about it?

"I'm sorry, I should have figured it out... But I still don't understand... If Ningzi left the band because of her special circumstances... then why did she share an identity with Xiangzi in the first place...? If we had told everyone from the beginning, things would have been better..."

"Shh... Su Shi, you can only ask one question, okay? If you want to know more..."

Blow air into her ear, Ningzi! Su Shi can't stand it!

The hot wind blowing past her ears made Su Shi shiver, but what was even more tempting was what Ningzi was about to say.

Toyokawa Ningko began by saying:

"The beginner's mission is to take me to the beach on your bicycle. You can chat with me during the trip, and I will selectively answer some of the questions I like... After we arrive at our destination, I will give you a small reward and the right to ask you two questions."

"Really? But, at the beach?"

This is from the beach...

"There are still about ten kilometers to go. It's six o'clock now. If we haven't arrived by eight o'clock..."

The heat returned, but this time it was different.

Toyokawa Ningko pressed all her weight onto Nagasaki Motoyo, whose back was covered in sweat, which soaked the front of Ningko's school uniform.

All her weight was equal to all her softness; Ningzi's body was as soft as cotton, completely enveloping Su Shi.

"!!!"

"I will definitely do it!"

"Hurry, take me away, Su Shi."

"!!!"

You never know how powerful a casual remark can be.

Motoyo Nagasaki tensed up.

Fear, fatigue, anxiety—go to hell with them all!

And don't worry about whether carrying passengers on a bicycle is legal or not!

Without Toyokawa Yasuko, he would return to being homeless.

Isn't this exactly what Nagasaki Motoyo has been longing for... the chance to have a home?

This opportunity is now in your hands…

Motoyo Nagasaki will definitely not waste it!

……

Is this the sea?

Suitable for suicide.

It's best to take a small boat to a distant location, and once you're sure no one can interfere and come to your rescue, gently jump off the boat.

With a thud, his eyes closed.

When I opened my eyes again, I was no longer in the human world.

"Hey! I'm telling you, can you still breathe?!"

As darkness fell, Ningzi, sitting on the back of the bicycle, witnessed the distant lights go out. As they approached the sea, she saw a small, shadowy boat disappear into the darkness.

It's dark here, but there's a moon, so Ningzi isn't afraid.

As the moon rose, the insignificant houses slowly disappeared, and Ningzi gradually realized what a night view the seaside had been like, a view her sister and mother had once admired.

Su Shi rode faster than Ning Zi had imagined, and the distance was much farther than Ning Zi had expected, but Su Shi still arrived at the seaside within the time Ning Zi had set.

She's had a tough time.

Upon arrival, Su Shi practically fell off the car. Ning Zi picked her up and sat her on the beach, out of the reach of the tide, to watch the moon.

“Xiao Ning…”
