Is it not a galgame?

……

"Nene, have you heard? Pokeni's new game is about to be released."

On the rooftop, Masaharu Yamada started as usual.

The sky in the distance is blue and it’s a sunny day, but——

The wind is very noisy today.

Everyone's hair was a little messy.

"I know, isn't it Yu-Gi-Oh? After I bought it, I still play it every day before going to bed." Kinoshita Keisuke said.

"Yu-Gi-Oh! is a game from last month." Hayamikawa complained, "The latest game released is called "Bullfighting""

"Yes, that's the name." Kinoshita pretended that he didn't make a mistake.

The people around him looked at him with disdain.

"But, have you noticed that the name of pokeni's new game this time is quite strange, it's called "Bullfighting"" Yamada Masaharu started.

"Yeah, yeah, I thought it was some kind of action game, simulating Spanish bullfighting? But after watching the promotional video, it seems that's not the case. In the promotional video, the bullfighting actually uses two bulls to fight." Jian Chuan echoed.

"This is not the most outrageous thing. What is even more outrageous is that this is actually a galgame. Can you believe it?" Masaharu Yamada smoked silently and slowly shook his head. It was really incredible.

This kind of incredible level is probably similar to how artificial girls in the future actually play building houses.

From the name to the introduction of the promotional video, except for the cute girl flashing across the screen, who would dare to believe that this is actually a galgame?
"Could it be that you are in love with a cow? A beast mother?" Hayamikawa expressed doubts.

On the entire rooftop, Hayamikawa and Yamada Masaharu were the two most actively discussing.

Starting from the promotional video and analyzing it layer by layer, although they couldn’t analyze the game before it was released, they still enjoyed it. It seems that discussing pokeni’s games has become the happiest thing in their daily lives.

It's like being calm, like a small stone thrown into the stagnant pool of work and life by pokeni.

Although it is small, it can still create a ripple.

This is probably a common phenomenon after the stagnation of the neon economy.

For many people, their daily work and life are no different from machines, and their brains become moldy if they don't do it for a long time.

Fortunately, there are games in the world that can be easily accessed and enjoyed by ordinary people. They can kill time and get dopamine at the same time.

What's even more fortunate is that there is a company called pokeni in this world, which makes these tiny happinesses as precious as luxury goods.

especially--

"This new game is still supervised by Tsubaki Furuhara, produced by Mika Ishino, and Jun Asae is the script writer. Think about this lineup, you can't lose no matter what." Masaharu Yamada seduced.

"Don't you consider getting one?"

"Speaking of it...this lineup...didn't 86 lose once before?" Kinoshita Keisuke asked.

"But then the sequel to 86 was released, and it was reversed." Masaharu Yamada retorted.

"Oh... It seems like that, but I was busy having a baby with Yuka at the time, so I didn't play much of the 86 sequel. Looking at it this way, I still have to find time to make up for it."

When talking about the children, several people suddenly fell silent.

Kinoshita and Yuxiang were the first to get married. Among them, they still have no children.

It is estimated that there is something wrong with someone on both sides.

Considering that the cheating rate of Neon married wives is as high as over 40%, this problem will most likely occur in Kinoshita.

"But, speaking of children..."

On the other hand, Hirokawa Furukawa, who had been silent next to him, suddenly said:

"I hope you don't mind Kinoshita."

"Huh?" Kinoshita's fingers holding the cigarette suddenly twitched, but everyone had guessed it -

Furukawa Hirose has a child?
"Junna is pregnant?!" Hayamikawa looked shocked.

There are even some who are too surprised, more than the people involved.

"Yes." Furukawa Hirose nodded, pursed his lips and smiled, "I just found out the day before yesterday. Junna also found out that her aunt hadn't been here for a month, so she wondered if she had a child.

After going to the hospital to check, it turned out to be true. "

"Guy, how lucky are you!"

Kinoshita Keisuke punched Furukawa Hirose in the chest, then stretched out his arms to hug his neck, "That's great, it's really great."

Although Kinoshita feels a little sour in his heart, Furukawa is his good brother. If a good brother has a child, it is equivalent to me having a child.

It was too late for him to be happy.

But when he said the words "too good", there were tears in the corners of Kinoshita's eyes.

"Everything will be fine. We guys are actually lucky." Hayamikawa sighed silently, "Everything will be fine."

He raised his head and looked at the group of men around him.

Although everyone seems to be standing on the rooftop chatting and laughing as usual, there have actually been a lot of changes.

Yamada Masaharu is no longer young, he is already in his 30s.

He also has a beard on his lips and looks more mature. Although he doesn't have a girlfriend yet, he has begun to exude the mature charm of an old man that attracts girls.

And what about Kinoshita?

After being married for so many years, there would be no children without children. There are more crow's feet at the corners of the eyes, and the whole face is thinner, but she is still very energetic.

The most enviable one is still Furukawa Hirose.

He is the only man who has chased his first love and got married. Now not only has he been promoted to minister, but his wife is also pregnant.

I am considered a winner in life, with a good harvest in career and love.

"Congratulations." Yamada Masaharu smiled very brightly. He had a similar mentality to Kinoshita. Although he had no children and was still single even now, his good brother was suddenly going to have a child, and he always felt that he was also involved.

It's not that I really loved Furukawa, but I felt a sense of joy from an emotional point of view.

Even the joy and excitement exceed that of the person involved.

"Now that I have a child, I have to work harder in the future." Hayamikawa said with a smile.

He had just put the cigarette in his hand to his mouth when he suddenly thought of something. He quickly took out his wallet, put out the cigarette butt on it, and then put it away.

"Don't worry, I don't smoke at home. It's rare that I can enjoy it for a while at work." Furukawa Hirose said with a smile.

Everyone smiled slightly to show their understanding.

However, no one present ever smoked again.

Yamada Masaharu finished smoking the one in his hand and silently put it into his wallet.

……

"Actually, it's quite good. Each of us is walking on the path planned by destiny." Hayamikawa suddenly sighed, "Yamada, you should find a girlfriend soon, don't be like me, you are almost 40 years old. I’m still single.”

Yamada Masaharu twitched the corner of his mouth twice, "If I could find her, wouldn't I want to find her? But the problem is that in this day and age, girlfriends are hard to come by.

Some people’s window period is that short, and after this time they are gone. "

Yamada Masaharu's eyes became wandering, and everyone knew that he was thinking about his first love again.

Unfortunately, as Yamada said, the new employees in the workplace now either have boyfriends, or they think Yamada is not very cost-effective.

If it were a 40-year-old minister like Hirosawa Furukawa, he might think about it.

As far as Yamada knew, the new girl in the company named Chiharu Wada was flirting with Furukawa, intentionally or unintentionally.

Fortunately, he was too stupid to take the bait.

However, Yamada Shoji sighed heavily. Now we have entered a paradox. If the company wants to promote you, it needs you to be married and have a stable family.

However, if a girl wants to fall in love with you, she needs you to have a high position and a high annual salary.

In short, if you are young, handsome, wealthy and powerful, you have to take advantage of them.

Yamada Masaharu, who is already in his 30s, actually doesn’t occupy anything now.

You should promote me first.

The layers of neon solidified and became as hard as steel.

……

"In a situation like this, you can't rely on traditional communication methods to meet girls. It's already the Internet age, the Internet age!" Kinoshita inspired him, "RTT.

Just join a local group above and you will see many girls who match your conditions at once.

If you like it, just take the initiative and ask for the other person’s contact information.

If you develop it slowly, it will fall into place easily. "

"Haha, why are you so skilled Kinoshita? Does Yuka know that you are chatting with girls online?" Hayamikawa said with a smile.

"Oh my, it's just a chat, what's the point? Don't always think of me so bad, and I'm a 40-year-old man, who can look down on an uncle like me?"

"Not necessarily. A 40-year-old man is the ideal prey for girls." Furukawa Hirose also added fuel to the fire.

"Hey, you guys, why are you off topic again? What are you doing talking about women in such a nice way?
Pokemoni's new game is about to be released, and it's supervised by Chunqiu Furuhara. "

Everyone was talking and laughing, and continued to discuss the game.

But at this moment, a voice was mixed in the laughter:
"I was assigned overseas," Hayamikawa said.

"Ma Zhi is accurate, the current level...huh?"

Everyone who was talking stopped at the same time and looked at Hayamikawa in disbelief.

"What did you say?" Kinoshita stared with big eyes, unable to believe the news.

For the company, expatriation basically means that they will not come back, and then they will fend for themselves in the subsidiary. If the performance is not good, they can be abandoned.

It’s no different than a gecko’s tail.

To a certain extent, expats = useless people = trash.

"Huh? Real or fake?"

This news was like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone present.

"No way, the company doesn't need people like me anymore." Hayamikawa sighed silently. He originally wanted to smoke a cigarette, but suddenly remembered that Furukawa Hirose was going to be a father soon, so he put his hand in his pocket. Stopped again.

He raised his hand, straightened his hair that was a little messy in the wind, and smiled calmly:

"It's been ten years, it's time to say goodbye."

Everyone couldn't help but be a little stunned.

"Can't you tell your boss? Why? You have obviously made so many contributions to the company." After all, Yamada Masaharu is the youngest of the group, and he cannot accept it emotionally.

However, the other two 40-year-old men seemed more open-minded.

"This is probably life."

Take ten years to experience it, and then spend the rest of your life recalling it.

Nothing lasts forever.

Everyone has almost realized this.

"In the future, with the Internet, we can contact each other wherever we go." Hayamikawa said.

"Yes. In the Internet age, separation is actually not that terrible. It's just a different way. We can continue to connect and share."

"Fortunately, there are still good memories." Hayamikawa laughed.

"To be honest, I have been really happy to have your company during these ten years. I still remember the scene when we stood here ten years ago, blowing the wind and talking about games."

"That's right, pokeni had just released Onmyoji at that time." Furukawa Hirosawa said with a smile.

"Unexpectedly, 10 years have passed in the blink of an eye. To be precise, it has been 11 years."

"Qing Zhiyuan has also grown from a young boy to a 37-year-old, almost 40-year-old uncle."

"Haha, almost the same as us."

“Think about it, when I played Onmyoji for the first time, I was still very moved.

Even now when I think back to the time when Youmuling died, I still feel like my heart was stabbed. "

"Then, let's come to my house and play games together." Hayamikawa said with a smile.

"That's necessary!" Kinoshita raised his hand and punched Hayamikawa in the chest.

"I want to go too." Yamada Shoji raised his right hand.

Everyone looked at Furukawa Haoze.

The latter smiled slightly, "I'll send a text message to Junna. I won't be going home tonight. Let's go to Hayamikawa's house and have a good time together!"

"Want to play galgame together? I feel a bit ashamed."

"What are you afraid of? There is nothing shameful about pokeni's galgame."

"The main reason is that it's really not nice to see four grown men crying."

"Hmm...it seems to be a problem."

"Whatever, who says four grown men can't cry together!"

"That's right, just cry happily. I also want to see the magic power of Gu Yuan Chunqiu this time!"

……

Under such circumstances, after work, four people came to the game store near the company at the same time.

The fat store manager couldn't help but be startled when he saw them neatly arranged.

"It's really strange. Why did you all arrive so neatly today?"

In the past, either Kinoshita or Furukawa was missing.

Because these two people are married, their demand for games is not that strong.

Originally Furukawa Hirosawa was a regular customer of the game store, and later became Masaharu Yamada.

After finally seeing the four people gathered together, the store manager was actually a little touched.

"Pokeni's new game "Bullfighting" was just released today. Can you get a copy for each person?"

"Yes. One for each person."

The four people nodded in unison.

In the future, after Hayamikawa is assigned overseas, he will never have such an opportunity again.

Maybe it's like Hayamikawa said.

After 11 years of companionship, it’s time to say goodbye.
