In the third year of high school, I exchanged bodies with Yukinoshita

Online love, Yan Meng, you have a very rich imagination. But why was I labeled an online lover? What did Yukinoshita Yukino do?

Zuo Yu asked Yukinoshita Yukino about the cause of the incident in his mind, and Yukinoshita Yukino explained the misunderstanding that happened this morning. Zuo Yu wanted to laugh after hearing it.

It looks like I'm about to be labeled an online lover, but our relationship is quite similar. We can't meet in person, so we can only communicate through words and text. When we swapped bodies, it was like we were just having a video call.

When Zuo Yu was communicating with Yukinoshita Yukino, time did not stop. From Yan Meng's perspective, "Zuo Yu" had been silent for a long time.

"It seems to be true."

Yan Meng seemed to announce the fact that Zuo Yu was in an online relationship.

Zuo Yu signaled Yukinoshita Yukino to directly admit that she was in an online relationship.

"Ha, are you kidding? I can admit such a thing."

"Why can't..."

Just as the two were arguing in their minds, Fang Xuan stood up.

"I think he's really tired today. He probably won't chat with other girls late when he gets home."

Sorry, I'm chatting right now. Zuo Yu complained about the current situation.

"Put it this way. Just say, 'I'm taking care of my own business, so don't worry. And instead of worrying about me, you should worry about Fang Xuan's monthly exam. He's been a bit slacking off lately.'"

Yukinoshita Yukino said what Zuo Yu said.

This familiar feeling, the feeling of being backstabbed by his good brother, could it be that the Zuo Yu in front of him was the real Zuo Yu, not the one he exchanged with? Fang Xuan looked at the "Zuo Yu" in front of him and felt something was wrong.

His temperament is still different from Zuo Yu's, but the words are something only Zuo Yu can say. Did he ask for help through the phone just now?

"Don't worry, his grades will definitely improve this time. He's been doing pretty well in his review recently." Yan Meng looked at Fang Xuan with a kind look, then turned to Zuo Yu and said, "Forget it, I won't ask about your own affairs, but you'd better be careful and don't be deceived by those bad women on the Internet."

"Well, take care. I hope you enjoy your meal tonight." These are the words Zuo Yu asked Yukinoshita Yukino to say.

After hearing this, Yan Meng pulled Li Shu and walked towards the stall selling oden, and Fang Xuan followed closely.

"Are you hungry?"

Zuo Yu looked at them and sat down there, and asked Yukinoshita Yukino. This is to pay attention to your own body.

"It's okay, I don't feel anything."

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't feel hungry at all, as she had eaten quite enough in the afternoon.

"Then let's go back. I remember there are some stored food at home."

"Ah."

Yukinoshita Yukino walked towards Zuo Yu's home.

The originally noisy four-person team became one person, but Yukinoshita Yukino did not feel lonely because she still had a guy in her mind.

The two of them continued the previous topic, the topic about school.

"I'm a little moved by the contrast between you two." Yukinoshita Yukino was also a little moved by the chaotic scene when the power outage just now. They are usually quiet people, but suddenly they all became weird.

"What contrast?"

"Just when the power went out, it was so quiet one second, and then it became noisy the next. It's like your usual quietness is just an act."

"We remain quiet because reading requires a quiet atmosphere. Being noisy should be our true nature, and being quiet is just a disguise."

"Pretend, does that mean you don't like reading?"

"If it were just reading, people wouldn't dislike it. Just like humans have the habit of reading, learning new knowledge is also a human habit. But if it requires an exam, then people won't like it very much."

"For example, if a person is free to do something without anyone checking on his progress, he won't feel any urgency. He can take his time and do it to his satisfaction, and he will definitely like it. But if someone is added to supervise him and check on his progress at different stages, he will definitely not like it."

"We are like this. We don't reject it, but we don't like it."

"You guys actually hate exams, right?"

Yukinoshita Yukino analyzed from Zuo Yu's words that they seemed to hate exams but not studying.

"Students generally hate exams. Although I don't hate exams," Zuo Yu continued.

"Teachers usually tell you that exams are just to catch up on your shortcomings, but they don't tell you what the consequences will be if you actually have shortcomings. Most students dread exams for this reason, but it's different for those with good grades. Those with good grades will receive praise from teachers and have something to brag about in casual conversation."

"For example, they would falsely brag about how difficult a question was and how they solved it in the exam room. They could even use good grades to ask their parents for something they wanted. So they don't hate exams."

"You're one of those people who gets good grades. You enjoy getting satisfaction from good grades."

Zuo Yu said that was wrong.

"I'm a different breed. I enjoy exam time."

"Are you the type who enjoys taking exams?"

"About five hours of classes in the morning and four hours in the afternoon. If you have an exam, it's only two and a half hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon. If you're fast at answering questions, you can get another half an hour. And you can let your mind wander during the exam without the invigilator telling you to. So, isn't an exam much more comfortable than a class?"

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't know how to respond to this theory for a moment, but the premise of all this was that this guy's grades were good enough. If his grades were not good, he would not be able to think like this.

"You can only think like this if you have good grades. People without good grades wouldn't have the same way of thinking as you."

"Those with poor grades would also think this way, so those who suffer are often mediocre people." Zuo Yu came up with a nonsensical summary.

She had unknowingly reached Zuo Yu's doorstep. Yukinoshita Yukino opened the gate, then walked across the yard and opened the door to the house.

Morgana was already lying down at the door waiting for them. It seemed that he ran to the door after hearing the sound of Yukinoshita Yukino opening the door.

It circled around "Zuo Yu" twice, and then stuck to "Zuo Yu"'s body again.

Yukinoshita Yukino sat in the living room, put the cat on her lap, and stroked the cat's back, and the cat made a comfortable sound.

Zuo Yu glanced at the time in the living room. He came back really early this time, not even nine o'clock yet. Now it was time to talk about the situation with Yukinoshita Yukino.

Chapter 55 Don’t understand

Zuo Yu was talking to Yukinoshita Yukino about what happened at Yukinoshita's place today.

"Have you met Hikigaya Hachiman?"

"No, I just know that his situation in the class is a bit bad. He's an invisible person with no outstanding features. This is probably his current situation in Class J."

Zuo Yu thought about the J-class classroom's reaction this morning when he summoned Hikigaya Hachiman to meet Hiratsuka-sensei in the office. It was truly pathetic, the idea that his class didn't have him anymore. Yuigahama Yui's reaction was interesting, though.

"Was that my fault?"

Yukinoshita Yukino thought about it and wondered if it was because he was not allowed to start school normally that he ended up in this situation.

"That may be part of the reason, but I think it's more due to my personality."

"What do you mean, is there something wrong with his personality?"

"I didn't see much, but from his writings, I can tell that he really likes Arthur Morgan, to the point of admiration. Judging from his high opinion of Arthur Morgan's final outcome, he's very interested in self-sacrifice."

"Arthur Morgan? Who is this?"

It was obvious that Yukinoshita Yukino wasn't someone who would play that kind of game, or rather, she simply wasn't someone who could play games. Perhaps she could associate the name with the legend of King Arthur and guess that it came from Arthur Pendragon.

"A game character, a good guy who doesn't think he's a good guy."

"Does this have anything to do with Hikigaya Hachiman's personality?"

"Yukinoshita, you must not understand."

?

I don't quite understand what this means. Yukinoshita Yukino was filled with confusion, "So is there any connection?"

"It's a long story, but to put it simply, Hikigaya Hachiman really liked the ending where Arthur died alone in the sun after helping his friend John retreat. I really liked that ending, but I wished he had survived. Hikigaya Hachiman, on the other hand, really wanted Arthur to die there."

"so?"

"He's probably still in his second year of middle school, searching for differences between himself and others, a way to stand out. So, he might just want to avoid the class and become a marginalized person by choice. It has nothing to do with your car accident."

"How much do you know about Yuigahama Yui?"

"Not much, I just know she's in the J-class group of live-action students. The same group that Hayato Hayama is in."

Zuo Yu thought of the blonde girl. Hayato Hayama should have been able to sense that Miura Yumiko liked him. If she didn't like him, why didn't she just reject him directly?

Could it be that......

"How much do you know about Hayato Hayama?"

"Not much. I haven't had any contact with him since that incident in elementary school. My sister seemed to have been in touch with him after that, but I'm not sure what happened between them. Why did you mention him?"

There was a hint of displeasure in Yukinoshita Yukino's tone, and she directly expressed her dislike for Hayato Hayama.

He really doesn't hide his feelings at all.

Didn't you contact him after that? Yukinoshita Haruno did contact him, probably to avenge Yukinoshita. After all, that guy has a terrible sister complex.

In that case, Hayato Hayama is probably using Yumiko Miura as a shield.

It's a bit stupid. Hayato Hayama hasn't made any progress at all.

"That's all the information."

Zuo Yu said this, this is what he saw today.

"It looks like there is progress, but it's a little bit small."

Yukinoshita Yukino listened to the information Zuo Yu received today and felt that it was a little insufficient.

"Who do you think is responsible for this? We can only get so little information. It's because you don't even have anyone to talk to at school, so we can only dig out information from the details."

Zuo Yu complained about the difficulty of collecting information. He could not talk to people directly and could only guess based on their behavior, so the collection efficiency was too low.

"I'm so sorry I don't have any friends. After all, the people in my class don't really welcome me."

"Where did you get this conclusion?" Zuo Yu was a little surprised why Yukinoshita Yukino came to this conclusion.

"After all, my personality isn't very likable, you said."

"Uh..." Zuo Yu paused for a moment before continuing, "That's true, but it has something to do with your attitude. You always proactively cut off any possible connections with others."

"Have it?"

"There was a girl in your class who asked you to go out with her, didn't you refuse?"

"Yes."

"Then do you know why that girl asked you out?"

"I don't know. The reason I refused was because I wasn't familiar with her. How would I know the reason?"

"How are you going to get to know her if you don't go out and play with her?"

"Why would people who don't know each other go out and play together?"

"Stop, we can't go on like this. First, let's talk about why that girl contacted you. She wanted to learn from your study abroad experience to prepare for her own future studies abroad. But you rejected her and missed out on a potential friend."

"She can just ask me directly, and I'll give her a direct answer. There's no need to go around in circles like that."

"Really? But from her perspective, you're someone who doesn't interact much with others. So she thinks you're not easy to talk to. Naturally, she feels she needs to get to know the person first before asking you for help. That's why she decided to go out with you first to build some rapport and get the information she needs."

Yukinoshita Yukino was a little stunned and did not respond to Zuo Yu's words. Seeing this, Zuo Yu continued.

"After all, people's attitudes towards a normally communicative person and a normally taciturn one are obviously different. So, your current situation in class isn't as dire as you think. It's probably not because people are jealous that no one approaches you. Rather, it's because of your unapproachable attitude that people are afraid to approach you."

Zuo Yu revealed what he had learned from the phone recording: the reason why no one talked to Yukinoshita Yukino in class was because of her excessive self-protection.

Yukinoshita Yukino fell into deep thought, but she was a little distrustful of Zuo Yu's words. It was just a speculation without any real evidence.

"What you said may just be conjecture. It's just your opinion, not the facts."

Zuo Yu felt somewhat helpless when he heard Yukinoshita Yukino's rebuttal. This person really wouldn't cry until she saw the coffin, and she had a strong sense of self-preservation.

"I have evidence, but you can't see it now. When we switch back, you'll know. I'm not just guessing."

Chapter 56 The Exchange Is Still Not Over

Yukinoshita Yukino sat on the sofa, having finished her debate with Zuo Yu. She petted the cat much faster than when she first sat down, and Morgana made a sound of comfort. It seemed Yukinoshita's cat-stroking skills had improved.

"By the way, there's one more thing."

Zuo Yu looked at Yukinoshita Yukino who was caressing the cat contentedly in his living room. His eyes inadvertently caught sight of his game console and he thought of the money he had not yet discussed.
