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

What does he mean by this? Why does he say that? Does he really have that in mind...

She stood on the rooftop and thought about what Hikigaya Hachiman said. Could it be that what "Yukinoshita Yukino" said was really true?

Normally, Hiratsuka Shizuka would have understood why Hikigaya Hachiman said that, but the question Zuo Yu gave her contained the word "love," which instantly trapped Hiratsuka Shizuka in a self-proving trap.

The more I think about it, the more suspicious it seems, and the more it seems to be true.

Hikigaya Hachiman ran back to the classroom, feeling relieved. He'd finally gotten away with it. He'd made it back alive, and it seemed he'd been right. Hiratsuka-sensei wasn't chasing him.

What? My guess was pretty accurate.

When he passed by the blackboard, he saw that the first class in the afternoon was Mr. Hiratsuka's Chinese class.

Oh no! I'm probably going to be called on by Mr. Hiratsuka this afternoon. But the good news is that my Chinese is pretty good and I'm not afraid of questions.

Hikigaya Hachiman confidently sat back in his seat, which felt slightly warm, as if it had been requisitioned at noon.

The bell rang and Ms. Hiratsuka walked into the classroom and began today's class.

"Hikigaya Hachiman, can you explain what this means?"

"Hikigaya Hachiman, what kind of emotions does the author express here?"

The constant stream of questions forced Hikigaya Hachiman to stand and sit. The eyes of the students looking at Hikigaya Hachiman began to look a little strange. Did he offend Mr. Hiratsuka?

All this seemed unfriendly to Yuigahama Yui. It seemed that she had to take advantage of the time when Miura Yumiko asked Yukinoshita Yukino for advice to ask herself what she should do.

Hiratsuka Shizuka noticed that the class was looking at her in a strange way, and she realized that her actions were a bit too deliberate, so she started asking questions to someone else. She called on Yuigahama Yui, who seemed to be listening attentively.

"Yuigahama Yui, please consider the context..."

Hikigaya Hachiman, who was not asked any questions this time, looked at Yuigahama Yui who stood up. Finally, someone took the responsibility for him.

But why did this girl keep hesitating and couldn't answer anything? She must not have been listening to the class carefully, but was thinking about other things.

Chapter 70 Don’t Leave After School

Miura Yumiko and the others fled the crime scene, thinking they hadn't been discovered. Afterwards, the three of them returned to their class and began their usual activities, including having lunch together. The only difference was that Miura Yumiko and the others didn't dare to make loud noises in class.

They gathered together and discussed in a low voice the explosive news they had just heard. It was possible that Mr. Hiratsuka had a special relationship with Hachiman Hikigaya in her class.

Yuigahama Yui glanced around the classroom, pretending to be strolling attentively. As usual, she didn't see the boy with the dead eyes. Where did he usually eat lunch? He was nowhere to be seen at noon and would only return to class when the bell was about to ring.

"Yui, are you listening?" Miura Yumiko called out to Yuigahama Yui, who was a little distracted, and asked with some concern: "Are you thinking about something?"

"Nothing." Yuigahama Yui said nonsensically. This was not something she could tell everyone.

"Forget it, if you don't want to say it, forget it."

Miura Yumiko, who realized that Yuigahama Yui was hiding something, did not choose to press the issue. She turned around and found the black-haired girl and asked quietly, "By the way, Hime, where were we talking about just now?"

"Speaking of Hikigaya Hachiman, who exactly is he?" Ebina Hina pushed her eye sockets. She still remembered that among the three people present, only Yuigahama Yui had any connection with Hikigaya Hachiman.

Yesterday morning, it was Yui who relayed the news that Hikigaya Hachiman was called away by the teacher. In the afternoon, she and Hikigaya Hachiman were on duty together. Yui seemed a little off, but it wasn't her place to say anything.

The core of this small group is Miura Yumiko, a blonde, fiery high school girl, not someone as dark as herself. Naturally, Miura Yumiko is the one to guide the conversation.

Ebina Hina looked at the blonde girl in front of her, looking like she was deeply in love. It seemed that the activities for this afternoon had been confirmed.

Miura Yumiko looked at Himena Ebina in front of her, her glasses glistening, as if she had seen through everything. She couldn't help but laugh, "Hina, do you know who Hikigaya Hachiman is? I don't seem to have any impression of him."

"I don't have any impression. After all, the boys in our class are so good that they don't pay attention to a classmate who seems invisible." There was a hint of passion in her tone. "What a pity! It would be great if Hiratsuka-sensei was a male teacher. Otherwise, a double forbidden love would be great."

"Hina, please restrain yourself a little. Your true nature is showing again." Yumiko Miura reminded the suddenly excited Himina Ebina. She seemed to have thought about what would happen if Mr. Hiratsuka was a male teacher.

Ebina Hime is the ultimate fujoshi, though that's just her idea. Her true self is well hidden, at least none of the three people sitting with her know it.

"Then Yui, do you know who Hikigaya Hachiman is?"

"I know. You forgot that this is the person Yukinoshita Yukino-san called out to our class yesterday."

Yuigahama Yui didn't intend to hide this. The entire class knew about this yesterday. Anyone would know, but Himena probably knew too. She looked at Himena Ebina, who was still fantasizing about Hiratsuka Shizuka being a male teacher. Perhaps she wasn't interested in relationships between men and women, so she probably didn't take it to heart.

"Oh oh oh, I remember now. I was so focused on Yukinoshita Yukino coming to our class and her conversation with Hayato that I forgot to pay attention to what she said."

Miura Yumiko recalled Yukinoshita's visit to the class yesterday, and Hayama Hayato's obvious attempt to please her, and she felt a surge of anger. However, she thought about how Yukinoshita had clearly stated that she had no interest in Hayama Hayato at noon today, so why not go to her this afternoon and ask her how to fall in love?

"Come to think of it, she seemed to be saying that Hiratsuka-sensei was looking for Hikigaya Hachiman." Seeing that Miura Yumiko was a little distracted, Yuigahama Yui said that Hiratsuka-sensei had mentioned Hikigaya Hachiman yesterday in order to make the scene lively and not let it get dull.

"Maybe it was from there that Yukinoshita Yukino discovered the affair between Hiratsuka-sensei and Hikigaya Hachiman. Is it possible to discover that there is a special relationship between them just in one morning?" Miura Yumiko muttered. She could draw this conclusion just by the fact that Hiratsuka-sensei called Hikigaya Hachiman. Could it be that "Yukinoshita Yukino" is really a master of love?

And unlike me, she didn't dye her hair or change her uniform to highlight her beauty. She just stood there, and with just a good grade, she was even more popular than me. And she had bewitched Hayato Hayama. He decided to go to her this afternoon and ask her how to be popular with boys.

Yumiko Miura took the bait. She has now walked into the trap set by Zuo Yu, who told her not to leave after school. Now she is thinking about how to get "Yukinoshita Yukino" to guide her.

"I'm going to see her this afternoon."

Miura Yumiko's words were resounding, her tone resonating with determination, as if she were prepared to die. To her somewhat arrogant self, asking for advice from her (self-perceived) nemesis was tantamount to killing her. But in pursuit of the one she loved, it was all worth it.

Ebina Hina pushed her glasses frame. This sentence did not surprise her at all. After all, she had already guessed that Miura Yumiko would do this.

Yuigahama Yui looked incredulous and found it hard to accept what Miura Yumiko said.

"But, Yumiko, weren't you going to cause trouble for her originally?"

"So what? I haven't had much conflict with her. Besides, it's all worth it for my relationship." Yumiko Miura clenched her fists, looking resolute. Her determination was self-evident.

"But how can you get her to guide you? You two still had a conflict." Yuigahama Yui reminded that Miura Yumiko still had an unpleasant experience with "Yukinoshita Yukino".

"I've made up my mind. Her club is still short of one person. I will join her club, and in exchange, she will teach me how to get Hayato Hayama's attention."

It can only be said that things are exactly as Zuo Yu imagined. Miura Yumiko seized on a fact they overheard: Yukinoshita Yukino's club is still missing one person before it can be officially established. They can make a breakthrough from this aspect and let her guide them.

Ebina Hina had a look on her face that said, "As expected," and it looked like she was about to start another club activity. I just wondered if this club president was friendly.

Yuigahama Yui lowered her head, taking small bites of the lunch box her mother made for her, looking as if she was thinking.

Should I, like Miura Yumiko, talk to "Yukinoshita Yukino" about Hikigaya Hachiman and my own love affair?

She was still hesitant. She had already taken an important step and had already started talking to Hikigaya Hachiman, but then Hiratsuka Shizuka suddenly showed up. This made her feel a little embarrassed.

Just when Yuigahama Yui was thinking about whether to go to "Yukinoshita Yukino" for help, Hikigaya Hachiman escaped from the rooftop.

He passed by the podium, passed by Yumiko Miura and others, and returned to his seat.

Neither Miura Yumiko nor Ebina Hina paid any attention to the male protagonist of the matter they had just discussed who passed by them. Of course, their current impression of Hikigaya Hachiman was probably that they knew there was someone with this name in the class.

This was a significant improvement in Hikigaya Hachiman's status in the class. Originally, only Yuigahama Yui knew of his existence, but now there are at least three more people.

Yuigahama Yui noticed something was amiss when she saw Hikigaya Hachiman returning to class before class started. He looked relieved, as if he had just escaped death and had a new life.

"Yui, did you eat well?" Yumiko Miura asked Yuigahama Yui who was still eating. She and Hina Ebina had already finished their lunch.

"Hmm, it seems like my mom made a little too much. Are you two full? Or why don't you take some more from me." Yuigahama Yui looked at the remaining food in the lunch box. She herself was a little full, so she suggested based on the principle of not wasting food.

Ebina Hime and Miura Yumiko didn't hesitate and started picking up the food from Yuigahama Yui's lunch box with chopsticks. After tasting it, Miura Yumiko asked with a glint in her eyes: "Your mother's cooking skills are really good. Yui, can you cook too?"

“I’m not very good at it.”

"Come to think of it, being able to cook is also a way to improve a woman's power." Yumiko Miura was still thinking about how to improve her charm to pursue Hayato Hayama.

There were many people and they had big appetites, so they would quickly finish Yuigahama Yui's lunch box. Several of them went out side by side to wash the lunch boxes. When they passed by the international class, Miura Yumiko looked at the situation in the international class curiously.

Yukinoshita Yukino sat alone by the window, with no one beside her and no extra movements. Just looking at the scenery outside the window made people feel that this person was a high-class beauty. Yes, Miura Yumiko had already acknowledged the gap between her and Yukinoshita Yukino.

Even just sitting there quietly, one could tell she was definitely popular with boys, even though there was no one else around her. Miura Yumiko looked at her deskmate, who was completely different from the popular girl over there. She was also a black-haired girl with a strong aura, but she seemed very approachable.

"That girl's name is Kurohime Yuto, and she just transferred here this semester." Ebina Hime told Miura Yumiko the information about the girl sitting next to "Yukinoshita Yukino".

"What a transfer student," Miura Yumiko exclaimed. "He's really amazing. He's already become friends with everyone in the class after just three days."

This was just a small episode. The three of them washed their lunch boxes and returned to the classroom. They had already wasted a lot of time eavesdropping on Zuo Yu and Ping Zhongjing's conversation, and with the lunch break, their lunch break time was running out.

Not long after they washed their lunch boxes and returned to their seats, Teacher Hiratsuka came into the classroom, and the bell rang as she arrived.

Yuigahama Yui noticed that Mr. Hiratsuka's face seemed to be a little better, and from the moment she entered the classroom, her eyes began to unconsciously look in the direction of Hikigaya Hachiman.

It’s okay, it’s just that the teacher cares about the students.

However, Hikigaya Hachiman kept avoiding Hiratsuka-sensei's gaze, as if he had done something wrong.

It's okay, it's just that students are afraid of strict teachers.

During class, the two began to attack each other unreasonably, and Shizuka Hiratsuka kept asking questions to Hachiman Hikigaya.

No...it doesn't matter. It matters a lot! The question and answer made it seem like they were arguing. They weren't pretending, were they? And they were doing this so blatantly in class.

What happened between you two at noon that made you engage in flirtatious questions in class?

Could it be that at noon, they had already confessed their feelings to each other? Come to think of it, Hikigaya Hachiman did come back earlier than usual at noon, and Hiratsuka-sensei's expression just now was not right.

Has some agreement been reached?

Yuigahama Yui's thoughts instantly shifted from the birth of the universe to her lunch, and she decided she couldn't wait any longer. If she waited any longer, Hiratsuka-sensei might even resign.

I must go to "Yukinoshita Yukino" for help. She must know the answer, after all, she was the one who pointed it out.

Zuo Yu naturally didn't expect that the action originally intended for Miura Yumiko would unexpectedly hit his own target, Yuigahama Yui. It was a case of unintentional success, and this unexpected development was hard to predict.

The afternoon classes passed quickly. Miura Yumiko looked at Yuigahama Yui, who was obviously not in good shape, and showed some timid concern for her. "Yui, if you are not feeling well, you can go home and rest for a while. It will be fine if Hime stays with me."

Yuigahama Yui decisively refused. If she refused again at this time, she might really witness the birth of a forbidden relationship. She mustered up the courage to reject Miura Yumiko's concern, "I'm fine. I will definitely go with you to see Yukinoshita-san."

"Then let's go together." Yumiko Miura encouraged herself and everyone and went to the club building.

They walked to the classroom where they had eavesdropped at noon, "This is the classroom, right?"

"Yes."

Yumiko Miura took a deep breath and opened the classroom door. "Yukinoshita Yukino" was reading a book, her long black hair neatly splayed on her body. Her whole body was immersed in the orange light of the sunset, revealing a sense of intimacy, as if welcoming their arrival.

However, the words that came out of her mouth did nothing to keep their fantasy alive.

"Please knock before you come in, so could you please go out and knock first? Then come in."

"why?"

Yumiko Miura asked in confusion, they had already come in, why did they have to go out.

Of course, we must seize the initiative of the topic.

Zuo Yu smiled. To Miura Yumiko, her smile revealed kindness, but her words were not very polite. "This is my club, it's my private space. If you have anything to ask me, please follow my rules, otherwise I will ask you to leave."

"I understand." After all, she needed help from someone, so Miura Yumiko put away her stubbornness, walked out of the classroom honestly, closed the door, and knocked politely.

Listening to the "knock knock" sound coming from the classroom door.

"Please come in." Zuo Yu let them in in a gentle tone.

Looking at the three people coming in, Zuo Yu thought that the next step of the plan was about to begin.

Chapter 71: No Work, No Food

Zuo Yu looked at Miura Yumiko and the others sitting before him, their faces revealing tension. He closed the book, leaning against the light, like a judge, and spoke to them in a serious tone.

"Tell me, what do you want here?"

Miura Yumiko was shocked by this momentum, but still said: "I want to ask you how to establish a good relationship with Hayato Hayama?"

"Oh?" Zuo Yu's tone didn't show much surprise. Of course, this was all as she expected. However, he didn't agree to the request directly. Instead, he changed his tone and said, "Do you know where this is? What is this place for?"

"This is your club, a place similar to a jack of all trades."

Yumiko Miura thought it was strange that "Yukinoshita Yukino" asked this question. Shouldn't she know better than us what this place is?

"That's interesting." Zuo Yu put his left hand, which was on the book, to his mouth, looking puzzled. "How did you know?"

Yumiko Miura knew why "Yukinoshita Yukino" asked this question. She didn't seem to promote this club, and she didn't have a club class until noon. So how should she explain how she knew about this club?

Yumiko Miura's face was sweating with nervousness. Zuo Yu felt extremely happy when he saw her like this.

Funny, haven't you thought about this?

"We asked Ms. Hiratsuka, and she told us about the existence of your club." Yuigahama Yui stepped forward to help.

Yumiko Miura looked at Yuigahama Yui with gratitude and said, "Well done, Yui."

"Oh, is that so?"

Zuo Yu still put his hand to his mouth, raised his head slightly, and looked at the people in front of him with suspicion.

Miura Yumiko took the opportunity to say, "Yes, it was Hiratsuka-sensei who told us."
