  社交？友情？
  socialize? friendship?
  ポーカーのメンバーにして、共同馬主の四人。紅一点が混じるところが不思議。ヒロインは金魚と植物だけで、彼はイタリア式大家族。バカな賭けをしたけれど、素直になりましょうね

  Four people who are poker members and co-owners. It's strange that the red one point is mixed. The only heroines are goldfish and plants, and he is a big Italian family. I made a stupid bet, but let's be honest

  ポーカーゲーム、賭けの対象は？
  What can I bet on in poker games?
  何故か対立しあい、不穏な緊張が走る。居合わせる者達にとっては、場の空気が悪くて面倒な二人。それでも、その二人は互いに意識してるからだとも想像できる。内面を見せたがらないルネに、リコは知らぬまにひかれていた。リコはルネともっと知り合いたくなるが、彼女には踏み込ませない壁があり、親しくなってもかわされる。山猫の様に。男女の心理の不思議なところを描こうとしてるが、ベールに包まれたルネの本当のところ、リコ視点が殆どなので、最後まで、隠す理由だけが鍵。紙片を燃やす行為にヒロインのガードの高さが伺え、解り易い。ルネの奥底にはある願望もあったが、リコに対して突っ張る。しかしその燃やされた紙片こそが、本心である可能性が高い。ここは、このゲームの、相手の手の内をリコが知る転回部。甘えた言葉一つとなく、強く反発しても、情を排する為に否定的な言葉を発しても、それでも、気になって仕方がない相手。なんだかんだ言っても、ホレたらやっぱり負けだったね、というお話。しかし下衆な賭けなどまでして、ワンチャン狙いで本当に呆れる。しかし、賭けの戦果は、それを書いたこと自体、ルネが知ってどうとらえたことか、物語の性質上最後まで明かさない。衝撃はあったろう。手の内を全て見せたくはないのに、手の内を全てさらしたくなったリコが、でも結局このゲームの主導権は持っていた。理想の女でないルネ、リコや母親が結婚相手に一般的に求めるものは、結果としては持たざる彼女だったが、彼女の方は究極賭けの勝利を手にした。真の勝者はルネなんだろう。そしてこのストーリー、愛に遠かったような二人こそが、実は互いに相手に誠実さを見せて熱い二人となるのだ。他のレビューアーさん達の評価がビックリするほど高くないが、「ゲームの行方」、という観点で十分ゲームが展開したので私はそこまで悪くないと思った。肉感描写は頁数こそあるにはあるが、パート1ほどでない。しかし、この場面多いと、変化のプロセス描写が手薄になる。それにしても、謎めいたルネを作るための、年寄り富豪と結婚していたモデル出身の未亡人その他の設定が、あまりストーリーに活かされていない。リコとの共通の関心事である馬のことも、話中消化はなかった。珍しいビジュアルのヒロインに対して、リコはもう少しテレビ業界の臭いがあっても良かった気はする。

  For some reason, they are in conflict, and uneasy tension runs through. For those present, they are two troublesome people due to the bad atmosphere in the room. Even so, I can imagine it's because those two are aware of each other. Unbeknownst to him, Rico was attracted to René, who didn't want to show his inner world. Rico wants to get to know René even more, but there is a wall she won't let her step on, and they are dodged even when they become close. like a wild cat. I'm trying to draw a mysterious point about the psychology of men and women, but most of René's veiled reality is Rico's point of view, so until the end, only the reason to hide it is the key. The act of burning pieces of paper shows how tall the heroine's guard is, and it's easy to understand. René also had a deep desire, but he was aggressive against Rico. However, there is a high possibility that the burnt piece of paper is the real intention. This is the turnaround part of this game, where Rico knows the inside of his opponent's hands. A person I can't help but be concerned about without a single spoiled word, even if they strongly repulsed or uttered negative words to eliminate feelings. No matter what you say, the story is that if you get upset, you lost after all. However, they even made shameful bets, etc., and I was really amazed by their aim for a doggy. However, due to the nature of the story, the outcome of the betting battle is not revealed until the end due to the nature of the story, the fact that it was written itself and how René understood it. There must have been a shock. Rico didn't want to show all of her hands, but she wanted to expose all of her hands, but in the end, she had control of this game. What Renée, Rico, and her mother, who are not ideal women, generally look for in a marriage partner was a girlfriend they didn't have as a result, but she won the ultimate betting victory. I wonder if the real winner is René. And in this story, the two people who seem to have been far from love actually show their sincerity to each other and become passionate two people. The ratings from the other reviewers aren't surprisingly high, but since the game developed sufficiently from the viewpoint of “where the game is going,” I thought it wasn't that bad. There are a number of pages of sensual depiction, but not as much as part 1. However, when there are many such scenes, the depiction of the process of change becomes difficult. Even so, settings such as a widow from a model who was married to an old millionaire in order to create the enigmatic Renee aren't made much use of in the story. Horses, which are a common concern with Rico, were not digested during the conversation. In contrast to the heroine, who has unusual visuals, I feel that Rico could have had a little more of a smell from the TV industry.
