Something's wrong, they're not NPCs?

The anxiety cannot be relieved.

I forced myself to smile because I thought about what happened to my sister. But wasn't my sister also suffering?

Why do I think I can be optimistic and wait more than ten times longer than my sister did?

I don't want No. 72 to know that I am not only mean, but also cowardly. I am not a good woman at all, and I am not as good as my sister.

So, I chose to go to the bathroom and secretly wipe my tears, hugging my shoulders and staring at the towel in silence.

There was my brother-in-law's hair on the ground.

Now, where is my brother-in-law?

If you regret it and don’t want to be a good woman, it’s okay to be a bad woman.

But there is no chance to regret now, so... am I forced to be a good woman?

It was only then that I realized that the reason I said those words to my brother-in-law...was not because I didn't realize I would be afraid, but because I planned to say it before I got scared and leave no way out for myself.

2 month 2 day.

Night.

I finished my yoga practice and was about to try to continue learning from No. 72 how to control everything in the laboratory.

"..."

There was a sudden movement in the elevator.

I froze in place, watching No. 72 reach out and press the panel on the side of the elevator to control the elevator's descent.

"I have found them all. Let's see if they are these?"

It’s my brother-in-law.

I don't understand, why did you come back at this time?

2 month 2 day.

late at night.

I couldn't stop crying and couldn't hold it in any longer. I hugged my brother-in-law tightly, wanting to feel more of his body temperature.

"When did I say I was going to Sea Isle City?"

"Didn't No. 72 tell you? I was helping her find parts."

"..."

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"I did plan to go to Sea Island City myself, but after thinking about it and observing it, I decided not to."

What does Observe mean?

"Number 72's eyes are like cameras."

"Although I'm outside, I can tell what you're doing anytime and anywhere through No. 72's signal device that can be transmitted to her modified electronic equipment."

too horrible.

Being monitored all the time?

"As for the results, you can't wait for me that long, you can't sleep, you can run to the bathroom and secretly use my towel this and that, and you can cry for a while."

"And you got one thing wrong."

"Island City is indeed important, but you are actually more important. You are the main mission."

Can't understand.

"What? Do you still think it would be better for me to leave for Sea Island City right away?"

"..."

I opened my mouth, but no words came out.

"Yao is not as confident as you think. I told her at the beginning that if she has any concerns or fears, she can tell me at any time. There is no need to be stubborn."

"I don't intend to go through your sister's self-harm and then go through it again with you."

"..."

"You can depend on me, understand?"

He put his arm around my shoulders and his hand slowly slid down.

It's not that they want to do anything to me, it's probably just a habit. Just like when you hold a camera with a handle, it feels better. The same is true for the cafeteria.

It took me a long time to recover.

"Brother-in-law..."

Before you can speak.

"Ok?"

“I was barely holding on.”

"It seems to me that you two sisters are having a very hard time. Do you two sisters really have to be so consistent in your experience? You both like to use each other's towels."

"……is it not OK?"

I grabbed my brother-in-law's clothes on his ribs, getting harder and harder.

"Yes, yes."

"...Originally, I might have been able to hold out for two months,"

"and then?"

"Originally, I had to endure it even if I couldn't hold on for that long. Now... I don't want to hold on anymore. I don't want to be a good woman anymore."

"Oh. Very good."

"...My brother-in-law is an idiot."

"Is that considered flirting?"

"…I remember it happened to my sister before. My brother-in-law also stayed here suddenly and didn't go anywhere until my sister got herself together again."

"After all, I'm not good at chicken soup."

“…I am good at it.”

"Did I say anything?"

"..."

Did not say.

But this is the best chicken soup. I didn't think about anything else, nor did I try desperately to get my brother-in-law to do something to me or show something to leave a deep memory like before.

Because now I understand that my brother-in-law doesn't treat me as an object. And he never will.

I didn't become the convenient woman I wanted, but now...if it's just for me, it's not bad, right?

"I really...will no longer consider many things for my brother-in-law. I will only consider myself."

“If a person is not selfish, is he still a person?”

2 month 3 day.

early.

My brother-in-law gets up earlier than me.

After I washed up and ate the breakfast prepared by my brother-in-law, I realized that someone was missing.

"Where's the 72th?"

"out."

"Are you repairing the equipment on the surface again?"

"No, I went to Sea Island City."

"..."

I was at a loss.

"During the past few days, in addition to finding parts for No. 72 so that she can make a lot of tools that may be useful, I have also learned most of how to use the laboratory."

"It doesn't have to be me. No. 72 can go, too. She's capable of traveling long distances if she doesn't need to protect anyone."

"..."

what does that mean?

"So, you don't have to think about it anymore. I will be here from now on. Waiting for good news from No. 72."

"Haven't you been out for a long time?"

"I have discovered an interesting phenomenon in the past few days. The surface of the earth can be regarded as a chaotic zone. Every 30-50 kilometers, the climate will have obvious extreme changes. It will remain constant before the next fluctuation."

"To put it more simply, it's snowing outside the lab today. Do you want to go out and play in the snow? Do you know how to ski? I found a sled and put it outside."

"..."

I'm sure.

My brother-in-law must be very concerned about the humanoid monsters and what's going on in Sea Island City. I really want to find out what I don't know.

But as for the results... I really don't understand why the main quest is more important.

I didn't understand why my sister didn't want to see me become like that after experiencing her self-harm. Even if something like that happened, I couldn't see it, so I could just pretend I didn't know, right?

You don't have to think so much about me.

"Can this also drop small pearls?"

"Brother-in-law..."

"..."

"I think you must be very bitter. You don't care about so many things, just want to stay and do a lot of things with me?"

"Well... I should be more restrained. It's getting harder and harder to find a pharmacy these days, and taking medicine is not good anyway."

"Besides being a bitch, you're just an idiot. I've always said seriously... you don't have to take responsibility."

"Then shall I leave now?"

"No. Brother-in-law, I want to kiss."

"Did you brush your teeth?"

I don't care.

Now, I just want to pounce on my brother-in-law and take whatever I want.

My brother-in-law is really an idiot. He was so uncomfortable and concerned before, but he chose to stay here just because of me. I am not the kind of woman who would cling to a man and give up his bright future to follow me.

"When the time comes, go back and meet Xia Ye first."

"Xiaoye... if you are too tolerant of me, it might be easier for me to accept you."

"..."

I don't want to hear about what happened later.

I just want it now. Very much.

I used to simply adore my brother-in-law, but now... I'm obsessed with him, right? I feel like if I get dumped, I might choose to become a monk in Mount Wutai.

"Brother-in-law, don't..."

"?"

"Don't want that. I'll take medicine."

"..."

"I don't like it because of the security measures."

"...In fact, there are no more safety measures."

Ok.
