"...good."

As if sensing a different atmosphere from the usual joking, Nanxiang Shi put down his bowls and chopsticks and sat in front of Nishiki Chishu.

She was at the dinner table without her usual lively energy.

She just tried to use a calm tone as much as possible, and told Nanxiang the fact that he couldn't even accept——

It turned out that she had been suffering from congenital heart disease.

[Nishiki Chishu’s words caused your brain to shut down for a moment. 】

[But you soon understood everything. 】

[No wonder every time she talks about the future and dreams, she always shows a relieved and optimistic smile as she is outgoing and energetic. 】

[No wonder every time you express your love to her, she will eventually brush it off with a joke. 】

[She tells you that she has never wanted to treat your love with contempt, she just doesn't want to be a burden that slows down your pace. 】

[When she said this, she, who had always been outgoing and optimistic, also collapsed emotionally. 】

[She has actually been psychologically prepared for life and death that have been decided long ago, but only when facing you, the guilt and regret in her heart cannot be hidden at all. 】

[Tears welled up from her eyes. After knowing everything, you just hugged her quietly and gently kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes. 】

[You didn’t mean to blame her. 】

[She has given everything from her heart to you, how can you be willing to blame such a girl who needs your love and care? 】

[You didn't comfort her, she just held you and sobbed softly. 】

[It’s two hearts that resonate, no need for words. 】

[She told you that she was diagnosed with congenital heart disease when she was a child, and she was able to live to the age of 17 now. In addition to her good health care, she is always optimistic. 】

[But there is a limit to what external factors can do. 】

[As early as a week ago, the doctor had warned that her congenital heart disease was very serious and she only had one month left. 】

[Similarly, she also told you that in recent times, she can clearly feel that her body is getting weaker. 】

[The reluctance to leave you has deepened her already indifferent fear of death. 】

[She can feel sorry. 】

[And in the face of her words, all you can do is comfort. 】

"...So that's it."

After coming back from the simulation, Nan Xiangshi shook his head.

He had expected it before. The last time Zhoumu Nishiki Chishu made an appointment with him was not a deliberate breach of the agreement, but that she simply couldn't come.

But even if he had expected it, when he actually faced this result, Nanxiang Shi could only shake his head and sigh.

By now, he had an impression of the somewhat vague plot of "Licoris".

It seems that in the original work of "Lickles", Nishiki Chishu had a heart problem. It seemed that through some kind of surgery, he was replaced with a black-tech mechanical heart in order to continue to maintain his life.

But as mentioned before.

"There are no science fiction or miscellaneous institutions in this world."

Nanxiang Shi leaned on the back of the bed and made a sound.

Yes.

In this world, there are no terrorist attacks like in "Lickles", and there is no so-called black-tech mechanical heart.

All that was left was that Nishiki Chishu was still in poor physical condition.

Although it was just a simulation, Nanxiang Shi, who felt the same emotions in the simulated memory, also sighed deeply.

Fate has given this girl such heavy pressure.

But she is still cheerful and cheerful, like an optimistic elf.

She hid it so well that she was only aware of it in the simulation.

At this point, Nanxiang Shi could only continue to observe the progress of the simulation and wait for things to turn around.

[You have learned about Nishiki Chishu’s physical condition. 】

[But she does not want her increasingly bad physical condition to affect other friends of 'Riko Rico', especially Inoue Takina, who has the best relationship with her and is a sister. 】

[If Inoue Takina were to learn about her current physical condition, she would not be able to imagine what drastic actions the always serious black-haired girl would do. 】

[Therefore, she hopes you can keep this secret for her. 】

[This is the first request she has made to you, and you really can't bear to refuse. 】

[You agreed to her request. 】

[Time continues to move forward. In order to maintain the operation of 'Riko Rico', you continue to serve as the chef. You also persuaded her to temporarily give up her job as a waiter at 'Riko Rico' to recuperate her body. 】

[In this regard, she would always smile and say that in the last part of her life, she at least wanted to stand in the sunshine instead of lying on the bed, quietly waiting for her body to decay. 】

[She continues to work. 】

[In front of 'Riko Rico''s partners, especially in front of Inoue Takina, Nishikiki Chisuke has always tried hard to maintain her original optimistic and positive appearance. 】

[You will see this in your eyes, and will take advantage of your position to increase her rest time. 】

[She did not refuse your special favoritism. She would always act like a spoiled child and smile against you. Occasionally, she would kiss you while you were working while no one was paying attention. 】

[Her smile is still so beautiful, and she is still so warm to people. 】

[However, within this month you can clearly feel that her life is dying extremely quickly and irreversibly. 】

[Although she still tried her best to pretend to be the same as usual. 】

[But the strangeness of the body may not be so easily concealed. 】

[In 'Li KeLiKe''s work, she frequently made mistakes, often breaking plates and misremembering bills. 】

[She takes longer to sleep, and the alarm clock seems to have lost its meaning. Sometimes you even need to walk to her to wake her up from her deep sleep. 】

[But you never did that. 】

[When she is asleep, you will always sit in front of her bed, watching her quietly, waiting for her to wake up. 】

[You don’t want her to sleep for so long, but you want her to rest long enough. 】

[The time she spent in a daze became obviously longer, and sometimes Inoue Takina even had to call her several times before she would react and turn around to show a energetic smile. 】

[But despite this, she still tried hard to pretend as if nothing had happened. 】

[But all this pretense was finally broken on the day she suddenly collapsed. 】

[Her life has entered the countdown without any precautions. 】

[‘Riko Rico’ Everyone knows about Nishiki Chishu’s congenital heart disease, but this unexpected change happened to her without any warning. Unacceptable to everyone. 】

[In the face of everyone's shock, knowing that the matter could no longer be concealed, you finally revealed everything about Nishiki Chishu's deteriorating physical condition. 】

[Inoue Takina was very unwilling to hide your secret. She wanted to condemn you, but the words of condemnation only came to her lips, and eventually turned into a low cry. 】

[Everyone understands that there is no point in blaming you at this time. 】

[In this regard, you apologized quietly for hiding everything. 】

[The atheistic store manager Mika went to the shrine for the first time. 】

[Wudao and Nakahara Mizuki, who had never believed random information on the Internet, spent all night investigating folk remedies and possibilities for treating congenital heart disease. 】

[Inoue Takina and you waited outside the ward all night. 】

[Besides, there is nothing you can do. 】

[When the tense operation was over, the doctor let you all know the result with a slightly regretful expression. 】

[The doctor tells you that she only has seven days left to live. With her fragile body, it is actually a miracle that she can persist for so long. 】

[Unwilling, Inoue Takina still hopes that the doctors will continue to try. 】

[But in the end all I got was a regretful apology. 】

[You temporarily put 'Li KeLiKe' out of business and take care of her wholeheartedly. 】

[She was on the hospital bed, her body was already looking thin, and her originally fair and pink face had become bloodless and very haggard, but perhaps the only thing that remained unchanged was her sunny and happy smile. 】

[She is even joking with you in the hospital bed. 】

"I order you! Ah Shi! Learn medical skills immediately! Cure me!"

She was bossy and energetic on the hospital bed. Even the old man on the other side was made to smile by her.

[Every time you hear her jokes, you just smile lightly and greet her to eat. 】

[The days of taking care of her are actually a kind of torture for you. 】

[You have no choice but to watch her become thinner and thinner day by day, and her breathing becomes more and more rapid day by day. 】

[On the first day, she still had the strength to talk, communicate, and eat with you. 】

[But in the following days, she could no longer even eat, although she desperately forced herself to eat, hoping to rely on this method to restore her body to health. 】

[But later, her fragile body could no longer complete the task of eating, and she would vomit everything she ate. 】

[Every time this happens, she, lying on the bed with an IV tube inserted, can only look at you apologetically. 】

[Her flowers are about to wither. 】

Chapter 81. You started living together (4000 words!)

[Soon, a week passed. 】

[But she did not die this week as the doctor expected. Instead, she struggled to survive. 】

[Even the doctors at the hospital were surprised - they thought this was simply a miracle of life. 】

[Her strong desire to survive makes you reluctant to look back. 】

[Because you understand that even if you continue like this, you are just torturing this cheerful and enthusiastic girl. 】

[Gradually, she became completely unable to eat and became less energetic than she had been at the beginning. 】

[The doctor inserted a urinary catheter into her who was unable to move, and the back of her hand, which was originally fair and lovely, was also inserted into an infusion tube. 】

[You remember clearly that she said before that she was afraid of injections and the feeling of foreign objects entering her body. 】

[Every time it’s time to change the needle, you will always turn your face to the other side when listening to her weak cry of pain, shouting ‘Ah Shi’. 】

[You feel like your heart is about to break, but at this time, you have to hold on. 】

[Takina Inoue cannot come to the hospital because every time she comes to the ward, she faints from grief and is extremely heartbroken. 】

【Only if you persist and watch day after day. 】

[Gradually, she could no longer speak in the hospital bed, and her breathing became longer and longer day by day. It took a long time to inhale, but a short time to spit it out, but she was still actively trying to survive. 】

[She fulfilled the words she once said to you - even if she ends up lying on the hospital bed and rotting, she will still struggle recklessly. 】

[Even the doctors who came to the ward to check on her every day were moved by her tenacious will to survive and refused to give up. 】

[The nurses in the hospital would secretly wipe away tears every day when changing her needles. 】

[They all know that today’s treatments are actually useless and can only prolong life in vain. 】

[For anyone, this is actually no longer treatment, but pure torture. 】

[The doctor came to you specifically for this purpose and asked if you would be willing to remove Jinmu Qianxu's oxygen tube and infusion tube to end her pain. 】

[In this regard, you did not answer, but came to the hospital bed and asked in Jinmu Qianshu's ear. 】

[At this time, she no longer has the strength to shake her head or nod. She just tries hard to open her eyelids and looks at you with her dim red eyes. 】

[You read the meaning in her eyes and tried your best to keep your voice calm and let the doctor continue treatment. 】

[The enthusiastic and cheerful woman never gave up until the last moment of her life. 】

[As she always said - life is the most important! 】

[However, people who are extremely weak actually do not have the strength to speak, or even to open their eyes. 】

[When you know this, it is actually the moment when her life comes to an end. 】
