After Confessing to Ranpo, I Got Caught in a Time Loop

[Blurb]

When work ended on Sunday, I confessed to my crush, my senior Ranpo.

Just as I expected, a mere three seconds later, I received a nice-person card personally issued by Mr. Ranpo.

It was awkward, but no big deal. As a woman with the brokenly powerful ability to [Save/Load], all I had to do was load a save from the moment before my confession. Then I could pretend nothing had happened and quietly erase those painful thirty seconds from my life.

Thinking this, I calmly moved the mouse in my mind and clicked the brightly displayed [Load] button, ready to return to [Save 2], the save point I'd made before confessing.

But the next second, I was back on Monday morning, at [Save 1], the save point that automatically overwrote itself once a week.

...Maybe, just maybe, I misclicked.

I resigned myself to living through the week again. When work ended on Sunday, I didn't impulsively confess to Mr. Ranpo again. Instead, I planned to go home and eat. But before I could leave the detective agency, the clock on the wall once again reached the moment I'd loaded from last time.

The scene before my eyes changed abruptly.

I hadn't used my ability, but once again, I was back on Monday morning.

"..."

Looking up at the familiar ceiling of my dorm room, I realized something seemed very wrong.

*

After "crashing" back to Monday morning for the fourth time, I had no choice but to admit, with great anguish, the truth I didn't want to face.

My brokenly powerful ability really did seem to have a bug.

I seemed to be unable to "get through" this week.

This wasn't awkward. It was a huge problem.

[Game Instructions]

1. The heroine, Fujihara Geemu, is immortal. Her ability is [Save/Load]. She can save or load at any time to return to a save point, but can only load a save from before the current time. She can have at most two save points.

2. The heroine has a crush on Ranpo, but he may not be her final pairing. The ending will most likely be an [Open Ending], with an extremely small chance of Dazai.

3. Third-person narration, primarily based on Bungo Stray Dogs, with a small chance of characters from other series making cameo appearances. The story is expected to be fairly short.

4. If this isn't for you, please leave. No need to announce that you're dropping it. Please don't mention other authors' works in the comments.
