How can I let go of the matter of saving my stepsister?

What really made this child happy was perhaps not her own relief, but the peace of mind and joy of finally freeing her family and her dear brother from the bondage of her illness.

Because her family was looking forward to her life, she tried hard to live and did not dare to die to meet their expectations, but she herself might have been looking forward to her own death for a long, long time.

There is no point in living as a useless burden, it is better to let your brother start a new life as soon as possible.

His heart seemed to be held by an invisible hand. Looking at Qiong's smiling face, Sato You felt a little breathless. His heart ached so much that he could hardly think.

"Mount Fuji, the cherry blossoms there are beautiful."

Subconsciously, these words suddenly came out of his mouth.

This is a very silly and clumsy sentence.

Where can I see cherry blossoms in Mount Fuji in November? The flowers will bloom in April next year, and I wonder if Dome will still be alive by then...

He is simply talking about things that are irrelevant. Even his basic language system is disordered and he speaks without thinking.

Shocked by such stupid words, Qiong was stunned for a moment, then she gently grasped her brother's hand and held his.

"Then next year, let's go see the cherry blossoms together."

Even if I am weak, I will try my best to live until that time and leave behind the last beautiful memories.

It was clear that she didn't have the ability to read minds, and it was clear that she was clumsy, but somehow, Sato Yu could sense the words of firm will from Qiong's gentle smile.

"And then there's Kyoto! Kiyomizu-dera Temple, Kinkaku-ji Temple, Nijo Castle..."

Qiong was still accompanying him, talking enthusiastically about the places in Japan that she wanted to visit, but it was fundamentally a dilemma.

If Sato Yuu shows disappointment and pain, he will not feel good. If he shows excitement and joy, he will feel even more guilty.

In the end, after just a few words, Sato Yu used the excuse that he had a hangover and still had a headache and wanted to rest to drive Qiong out of his cramped room, covered his head with an even cramped quilt and closed his eyes.

In fact, he was indeed tired. His life had undergone such a huge change in such a short period of time. Even if he forced himself to accept the reality, he would still suffer huge mental damage.

He even imagined that this was an overly real dream. When he woke up again, he would see his own exquisitely decorated and warm apartment again. The person accompanying him was not his dying sister, but his bloated cat pig, who meowed at him for food.

"But what should Qiong do? She is alone..."

Mumbling incoherently, Sato Yu's world eventually fell into darkness.

When I woke up, the world was still dark.

He slept until nightfall.

I opened my phone screen in the dark and fumbled for the light. The world suddenly became bright, but the room was still old and shabby.

The past was not a dream but reality. He woke up and saw his sister cooking on the stove. The food smelled delicious.

"Whoo~"

Somehow, Sato Yu, who should have been disappointed, actually let out a long sigh, and his tense mood suddenly relaxed.

"I guessed that my brother would wake up soon, so I cooked five dishes. We will have a feast tonight!"

All his parents' money was lost because the factory went bankrupt, but Sato Yu, who had been working for more than two years, had a small amount of savings.

Due to changes in some key nodes in this world, not only has the medical level lagged behind, but the medical insurance system that Japan was proud of in the past is no longer so proud. For serious illnesses like Qiong that have little chance of being cured, the actual reimbursement is very little.

In the past, she had been living a tight life just to save money for hospital treatment. Now, after learning that she was allowed to go to another world and no longer had to live with expectations, Qiong immediately started to spend lavishly. She cooked five dishes in a row to nourish her brother, who had obviously lost a lot of weight since his parents passed away.

She had planned this for a long time, but she endured it because she was afraid of her brother's scolding.

"Don't just pick up vegetables, eat more meat."

The dishes were served and they sat down. There were five dishes, three meat and two vegetable. The brother and sister both consciously picked up vegetables to eat. In the end, it was Sato Yu who took the initiative and scolded his sister who was playing tricks.

"I always have, and I just prefer vegetables."

After retorting a little, Qiong picked up the meat and put it in his mouth to chew. As he chewed, his eyes rolled around, revealing a cunning look.

"It's a bit boring, brother, let's watch something."

“Is variety show okay?”

There was no TV at home, so Sato You asked, taking the only old notebook and placing it on the table.

"Well... let's watch cartoons."

"also."

"Brother, which movie did you participate in producing this season?"

"..."

At this moment, Qiong's little evil plan was finally exposed. Sato Qiong paused while fiddling with the computer.

"I Like My Sister But She's Not My Sister", whether it would be awkward for a brother and sister to watch this animation together is secondary. The most worrying thing is whether the quality of the animation is presentable to Qiong.

Sato Yu, who entered the animation industry late, did all the dirty work, such as cutting, coloring, and clearing the original image. After more than two years, he finally became an original artist. However, the first work he participated in was a rubbish work like "Sister Not Sister".

Before this, no matter how much Qiong begged, Sato Yu, as his sworn brother, never revealed his name in the production of the animation.

Sato Yui once thought that she would wait until she made a truly impressive animation before presenting it to her sister, but now...

I'm afraid that Sister Not Sister will be the last animation he will participate in. There will probably be no chance to see his other animation works in Qiong's short life.

In this case, no matter how rubbish the work is, it should be shown to Qiong, Sato Yu thought.

After all, that was the last trace left by his true brother in this world, proof that he had lived.

Volume 5: Chapter Episode . Squeezing with her

"I like my younger sister but not my younger sister? This..."

Neon animations are all broadcast on TV. Due to copyright issues, it is difficult to watch them on the Internet after a period of time. You can only buy discs or purchase VIP membership on special websites.

But even as a production staff member, there were no discs in Sato Yu's home.

As for membership...the price is really not attractive.

In this situation, if it was the previous Sato Yuu, he might be helpless, but the current Sato Yuu...

Connect back to China from Japan and watch pirated movies on domestic pirated websites!

Ha~, this is the only solution that the Chinese people can think of.

It wasn't difficult to connect to China's Internet from the outside world. Sato Yuu found the animation after fiddling with it for a while. When Qiong finished washing the dishes and came back, she was watching the opening movie of the anime.

The subtitles of pirated versions in China are in Chinese, but there are also titles written in Japanese in OP movies. Qiong read them out subconsciously, and was silent for a moment, then chuckled.

"What a strange name."

He first said he liked his sister, and then immediately said he didn't like her. At first glance, it looked like a grammatical error. It was indeed strange, but...

“But it’s so fun!”

At first glance it seems to be a grammatical error, but at a second glance you can figure out that the two "sisters" in the title refer to different meanings. Once you get this point, your interest in reading the book will quickly increase, and you will think that this book may be very interesting. In terms of the choice of gimmicks, "Sister Feimei" is undoubtedly a success.

But apart from the gimmicks, in Sato Yu's opinion, both the original novel and the animation are quite, emmmm, hard to describe.

However, Qiong does not have such preconceived notions. She is still looking forward to this anime series, and it seems that she has other expectations.

"It's obvious that this is a story about sister complex. To be part of such a production team, could it be that you are also..."

Could it be that you are also a sister-con, brother?

The answer to the question is obvious. If it was the Sato Yu of the past, he would be a little embarrassed at this time, blushing and saying "hmm" awkwardly. He really likes Qiong, treats her as his own sister, and vows to care for and protect her.

But now, he has a way to save his sister right in front of him, but he is afraid of the risk and is unwilling to try it. He backs down because of a little hardship. Sato Yu really can't have the nerve to say "yeah" and answer that he likes Qiong.

The answer was negative. The sweet moments of the past between the brother and sister flashed through her mind, and Sato Yuya was unable to utter any hurtful words.

Soul travel is such an embarrassing thing. When facing familiar and close people, a simple question is difficult to answer, especially when Sato Yu feels guilty towards Qiong.

Fortunately, this question does not require a real answer. Qiong, who asked the question, collapsed soon after the words came out of her mouth. Before Sato Yu turned around, she ran into the room with her hands covering her red cheeks.

When Sato You looked up, he only saw Qiong's back and Qiao'er's bright red ears visible between her hair.

"Qiong?"

"It feels a bit cold, I took out a blanket and wrapped myself in it."

As he listened to the words, his breath condensed into mist in the air. Sato You rubbed his hands and realized it belatedly.

"It's a little cold."

After his original home was paid off with debts, Sato Yuuki was in a hurry to find a place for Qiong to live, so the house he rented was not in a good condition. It had no air conditioning or heating, and the only thing that could provide heating was an old electric heater.

The reason why it is old is that you don’t know when the heater will go out forever. Just last night, maybe it passed away at the same time as Sato Yu, in any case, the heater will never light up again.

I was supposed to go out and buy a new one or look for a second-hand one today, but Sato Yu slept all day so I gave up.

As a result, the house was cold and both of them were wrapped in thick coats.

As the night gets colder, it becomes a bit hard to endure with just clothes.

"Give me one too!"

Sato Yuu shouted to the inside of the house, but...

"It's big enough anyway. It'll be warmer if we squeeze together."

The reminder was useless. The grown-up girl always had her own little thoughts. Qiong only took a blanket and draped it on Sato Yu's body and also on herself. Her small body was still close to her brother-in-law, and she hugged his arm tightly.

This is what is meant by complete dependence.

When a beautiful girl is so close to you, especially when you don't regard her as your sister but a beautiful girl you just met not long ago, the atmosphere should be ambiguous and charming. However, guilt always makes your senses dull.

His body was tense, the matter of the system was still weighing on his mind, and an unspeakable bitterness was swirling in his heart. Facing the girl who was so attached to him, Sato You did not dare to lower his head to look at her rosy cheeks, which perfectly expressed her youthfulness and were emitting the fragrance of a wonderful girl. He was just wooden-faced.

"here we go."

"Ah."

The moment of such response, Qiong's body seemed to relax a little, and she leaned more softly against Sato Yu's side. The two of them immersed their minds in the picture together.

Then, Sato Yu was the first to act.

What a poor op.

Accompanied by a theme song full of youthful vitality, the inserted scenes have almost no changes in the characters' movements. As long as there are enough materials, even an amateur can make a PPT. It can be said that "I have no money" is clearly written on the face from the beginning.

With such a facade, there is no need to even guess how simple the interior must be.

"The characters are so beautifully drawn, they are all pretty girls."

After watching the OP, Qiong praised it like this.

Having said that, Sato You lowered his head and glanced at Qiong's cheek, but he could see a bit of loneliness in the expectation that he forced himself to maintain.

It's really hard for her to find such a tiny bit of advantage.

In the past, she was confined to the hospital, and when she was bored, she could only read novels and cartoons to kill time. Qiong could be said to be a serious animation fanatic.

She can tell good from bad at a glance.

But because it is an animation in which my brother participated, no matter how bad it is, it is still good. At least Qiong will pick out the good parts.

[This is very rude, why didn't you say "I'm ready"? ]

"This is very much like me. My brother always makes people angry by not saying 'I'm starting'."

Entering the main story of the animation, what happened this morning is repeated in the animation. When seeing the heroine of the animation, that is, the younger sister [Ryoka Nagami] scolding her brother who did not say "I'm eating" before eating, a sense of intimacy arises, and Qiong laughs very happily.

"The picture is unexpectedly smooth and beautiful. The picture of the little sister turning her head with a blush on her face is so cute! Not bad~"

"Well, Director Mochizuki is very capable. She completed the first dozen cards. She is amazing."

Recalling what happened during the production, Sato Yu answered Qiong.

"It's really well drawn. With such a great artist as the director, this animation will definitely be great..."

Qiong's words of praise came to an abrupt end.

A card lasts for a few seconds, and a dozen cards in an animation last no more than a minute. While we were talking, the part that Director Mochizuki was responsible for had already passed.

The location changed from home to the school gate, from close-up to long shot, and passers-by who looked like crooked stick drawings appeared on the screen. The outsourced images that appeared in the first episode showed their superb quality in persuading people to quit, which made Qiong stunned and Sato Yu look bitter.

As a producer, he knew very well that this was just the appetizer.

The collapse has just begun.
