"I know... some bad things happened to him in the past."
Sakura lowered her gaze and said softly: "Don't you think that he has already forgotten them, which also makes him happy?"
During that period, after learning the name of the original owner of Ren's body, she also went to investigate.
After all, the internet is quite developed. With the name "Kaito Sato", she quickly found reports one after another.
The youngest doctor in Japan with a double degree in computer science and applied physics, nominated for the Thousand Talents Plan, winner of the Youth Science and Technology Award...
This is Ren's glorious past.
But why did he become like this afterward? There was no article reporting his subsequent disappearance. It wasn't
until Sakura found a more particular case and checked another name with the same surname, "Sato".
After checking again, she knew what had happened to him.
That's why she felt even more distressed for Ren.
After several thorough tests, it was confirmed that Ren no longer remembered the past.
Sakura decided not to let Ren dwell on the past.
She wanted to protect the current Ren. Ren is Ren, not Kaito Sato.
Kaito looked at Sakura's determination and understood that she must know what had happened to his cousin Kaito Sato.
He knew how tough that incident had been.
That's why his cousin Kaito Sato decided to give up and change his clothes to enter Xuanmen.
He knew that Sakura was right, and that it was even very good for his cousin Kaito Sato.
"But... we are his relatives, can't we see him again?" Kaito said, a little disappointed.
"I think... it's not necessary. I don't plan to let him take any risks. What if he sees you and remembers something from the past...?"
Sakura stopped talking at that moment, biting her lip in fear. "What do I do then?"
"If there's even the slightest chance he'll be hurt, I won't allow it."
Kaito smiled bitterly. "It seems you really care about my cousin Kaito Sato..."
Sakura's pretty face flushed. In reality, she didn't know when she started caring about Ren.
Was it the moment she was rescued from drowning or one of their subsequent meetings? She didn't remember.
"In that case... I understand. This is also a good thing for my cousin Kaito Sato."
Kaito said softly: "Thank you."
Then he turned and left.
Sakura breathed a sigh of relief, but at that moment she discovered that
all the students around them seemed to be looking at them with 'eating melon' faces...
But seeing that Sakura noticed them,
those around them also put aside their 'eating melon' faces and moved on as if nothing had happened.
"Oh, what are we eating today?"
"They haven't emptied the dorm trash cans yet..."
"Oh, yes, yes, I think the food from that newly opened trash can is delicious."
"Hey, hey, hey, what do you say after eating a melon? Which trash can? Are you going to eat it yourself?"
"Oh, do you want me to prepare a portion for you?"
...
Sakura's face was lined with wrinkles.
But she breathed a sigh of relief; that was already... a thing of the past.
The September sun was relentless and scorching.
While tropical storms occasionally lowered the temperature in major coastal areas during this period, Tokyo's barrier was as powerful as ever.
This caused the freshmen in military training to complain bitterly. Although they revered the Three Pure Ones, prayed to the Bodhisattva, danced with the gods, and asked for rain, they still saw not the slightest change in Tokyo's sky.
At the same time, the affectionate senior students also demonstrated their great virtues.
Not only did they drink milk tea and eat iced fruit, but some even strolled in front of the freshmen's square with fans and umbrellas.
The thing is, he had already been caught in the rain before, so he has to break others' umbrellas and let others see it with their own eyes.
Ren didn't know how these university students played, but he wasn't very busy lately.
"Edgerunners" is still being serialized, and the development of "Cyberpunk 2077" is also booming.
The performance of the Cyber Game Engine is as expected, with high performance and a high degree of completion. Game production has already begun. Except for a few bugs, there are practically no other problems.
These bugs were quickly fixed under Ren's supervision.
From this perspective, there shouldn't be a situation like "a game that grows thanks to a bug" in the previous life.
"Edgerunners" is still being serialized. After the deaths of Maine and Dolio, the subsequent response was excellent.
Not only domestic fans, but international ones are also causing a stir.
But in the end, he remained silent.
The plot development after Maine and Dolio's deaths was unexpectedly omitted.
The plot of episodes 24, 25, 26, and 27 tells manga fans that David took over Maine's position and responsibilities in a very short time and became the leader of the remaining Kiko, Rebecca, and Falco.
He is also Faraday's companion.
Like Maine, David began to accept a crazy prosthetic transformation that transformed his entire body.
The thin man who used to transform into a burly man, slightly inferior to Maine.
At the same time, David also connected Maine's prosthetic.
Seeing this prosthetic appear, many manga fans couldn't help but think of Maine and felt some sadness.
But then, David demonstrated his great leadership and combat ability in a mission, proving to manga fans that David had completely matured.
Thanks to Sandevistan, David not only became famous in Night City's cyberpunk group in a very short time, but also became stronger than Maine.
However, after Maine and Dolio's deaths, Lucy did not continue working on "Edgerunners" with David.
However, David earned a lot of money because he matured and became an important man. Even
if Lucy didn't work, they could buy a house in the bustling city center.
At the same time, Rebecca's role began to grow. After her brother Kiwi's death, she seemed to take over his comedic work and became everyone's darling.
Furthermore, she demonstrated her love for David.
This also boosted Rebecca's popularity.
Currently, less than 10 episodes remain until the end of "Edgerunners".
Ren plans to finish the final episode of "Edgerunners", episode 38: "The Last Moon Tour".
