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

"They're amazing, both of them."

The deserter Ebina Hime ran back with a drink and watched Yukino Yukinoshita and Miura Yumiko playing tennis on the court. They looked like characters from a boys' comic, both with exaggerated skills.

"Didn't Yukino say she wasn't good at sports?"

Yuigahama Yui looked at Yukinoshita Yukino's skillful racket swinging movements and felt puzzled. Could it be that Yukinoshita Yukino was actually very good at sports?

"Yukinoshita only said that her physical strength wasn't up to par, but she never said she wasn't good at sports." Ebina Hina rigorously pointed out Yuigahama Yui's mistake, "But I didn't expect Yukinoshita to actually be able to fight Miura Yumiko so well."

"I feel that Yukino has suppressed Miura Yumiko." Yuigahama Yui watched the movements of the two people on the tennis court. It was obvious that Yukinoshita's running range was very small, while Miura Yumiko kept chasing the ball that Yukinoshita hit back.

"Maybe it's a tactic." Ebina Hina pushed her glasses, reflecting an eerie light. "Didn't Yukinoshita say her physical strength wasn't good enough? Maybe they're trying to drain Yumiko's strength this way to close the gap between them."

"Is that so..." Yuigahama Yui looked at the two people whose physical strength was gradually declining. Yukinoshita Yukino's physical strength was really poor.

Yumiko Miura had already fought two games with Yuigahama Yui, and then was dragged into Yukinoshita Yukino's tactic of deliberately destroying Yumiko Miura's physical strength. Is this the only way to end up in a draw?

The final result of the competition was that Yukino Yukinoshita won. Yumiko Miura handed the racket to Himena Ebina who had just returned. Yukino Yukinoshita also said that she was exhausted and handed the racket to Yuigahama Yui.

"I didn't expect you to be such a good tennis player." Miura Yumiko took the drink that Ebina Hime bought, took a big sip, and then said to Yukinoshita Yukino. It had been a long time since she had played such a close match in tennis, and it had also been a long time since she had lost.

"I've practiced tennis for a while." That was in the free time I had because I didn't spend any time socializing. "However, my victory this time was somewhat unfair. After all, you've already played two rounds with Yuigahama Yui, and you deliberately fell for my tactics."

When Yukino Yukinoshita was using her tactics, she noticed that it was not her tactics that worked, but that Yumiko Miura was cooperating with her.

"Winning is winning, there's no need for so many reasons."

"Have you calmed down?"

The previous game of tennis with Yukino Yukinoshita had already calmed Miura Yumiko down a lot. Now, as she watched the two noobs Yuigahama Yui and Ebina Hina fighting each other, her originally depressed mood improved a lot.

"I'm feeling much better now. Thank you for your concern."

Yumiko Miura looked at Yukinoshita Yukino with some surprise. She didn't expect that this person was the type who looked cold but actually cared a lot about others in her heart.

"At the time, I thought you would just arrest the soccer club manager. After all, with your temper..."

"Yeah, I wanted to grab that woman right away. But I held back for Hayato. After all, she was Hayato's club manager, and he still had to play football in the club. Even if I had a huge grudge against her, I couldn't cause trouble for Hayato."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Miura Yumiko who said this, and her originally golden hair seemed to be glowing in the setting sun.

She is really the kind of person Zuo Yu described. Although she seems to have a hot temper on the surface, as long as you can get along well with her, she is the type of person who will consider you.

"...But, Yukino...let me ask you something. Is it true that Hayato has no desire for love?"

Hearing Miura Yumiko's question, Yukinoshita Yukino thought again of Zuo Yu's words, that Hayama Hayato might like his sister, Yukinoshita Haruno.

In other words, Hayato Hayama just solved the troublesome problem by lying.

"I think she does, but..."

Yukinoshita Yukino was thinking about whether to tell Miura Yumiko the news. After all, it would be a bit cruel to tell her that her lover had a girl he liked, but that girl was not her.

"Is it possible that Hayato has found someone he likes?"

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded.

"That person couldn't be you."

"It's not me, that person is... my sister... Yukinoshita Haruno." Yukinoshita Yukino finally decided to tell Miura Yumiko the news. Although it was cruel, it would prevent him from wasting his time on Hayama Hayato.

"Is that your sister?"

There seemed to be a question mark hanging over Yumiko Miura's head. She had not yet heard Yukinoshita Yukino tell her that she had a sister.

"Well, she's my sister who is three years older than me, but Hayato Hayama has no chance. Because my sister can never like him." Yukinoshita Yukino told her all the information Zuo Yu had told her.

Miura Yumiko felt a little uncomfortable after hearing Yukinoshita's confession that Hayato Hayama liked her sister. Then, she learned that the person Hayato Hayama liked didn't seem to like him, which made Miura Yumiko feel like she was alive again. Maybe she still has a chance.

"No wonder Hayato said he doesn't want to be in a relationship, is it because he feels like he has no chance?"

Yumiko Miura said thoughtfully, no wonder Hayato Hayama has been avoiding feelings, it is because he has long known that the person he likes does not like him.

"So...what kind of person is your sister?"

"She is one of the few all-round people I have ever met. She has a good grasp of social life, academics, sports and music." Yukinoshita Yukino admired her sister sincerely. Although she felt that she was very capable, she had never beaten her sister.

"Almighty? And from what you've described, your sister seems like a genius, doing everything very well."

Yumiko Miura muttered.

"Yumiko, we're done. Do you still want to fight?"

Yuigahama Yui ended her communication with fellow patient Hina Ebina, and the final result was that Hina Ebina won with her more sufficient physical strength.

"Then I'll go up." Yumiko Miura took the racket from Yuigahama Yui. After all, she hadn't played a game with Hina Ebina today.

"Yumiko, could you be a little gentler?"

Ebina Hina made a sound as if begging for mercy. She looked at Miura Yumiko who was coming up full of energy and suddenly felt the pressure doubled. Wasn't Yumiko's physical strength already at its limit?

Yumiko Miura served the ball with a smile, jumped up, and the racket and the ball made a "bang" sound. Then Hina Ebina experienced firsthand what tennis, which existed in boys' comics, was like.

"Excuse me, I always give it my all. Take that, deserter Himena."

Yumi Miura's energetic voice made Yuigahama Yui a little puzzled. Could it be that she was pretending to be tired just now?

Only Yukinoshita Yukino knows that Miura Yumiko might have a new goal, wanting to surpass her sister, Yukinoshita Haruno, just like she once did.

Chapter 110: Totsuka Ayaka's Request

Miura Yumiko and Ebina Hina were no longer playing on the tennis court. Ebina Hina had received her due punishment and was now sitting on the side of the tennis court with Miura Yumiko, who had just punished her.

"Hina, it looks like your plan to escape didn't come true."

Yuigahama Yui looked at Ebina Hina who was gasping for breath and thought of how she looked like that just now, so she couldn't help but tease her.

"...I feel like my...soul...has been lost...on the tennis court."

"Is it that serious? You only played one round, but Yui played two rounds with me."

Yumiko Miura on the side was still at ease. She looked exhausted when she fought with Yukinoshita Yukino before, but she was suddenly full of energy when she came on the court.

Ebina Hina couldn't help but complain in her heart about Miura Yumiko's outrageous physical strength. She had just been holding on to the illusion that she was just forcing herself to hold on, but she didn't expect that she actually had the physical strength to finish the whole game.

"Speaking of which... Yumiko, aren't you tired?" Yuigahama Yui asked with some concern.

"This level of activity is about the same as my daily training session in the tennis club when I was in junior high. I can still play."

"Then why don't you play tennis?"

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Miura Yumiko's expression when she mentioned tennis and was a little puzzled. The expression Miura Yumiko showed when she mentioned tennis was the kind of expression she would only show when someone really mentioned something she liked. How did Yukinoshita know that Miura Yumiko's expression was because she was saying that the person she liked was me? It was because the expression she showed when she mentioned tennis was the same as the expression she showed when she mentioned Hayama Hayato.

It's all happiness from the heart.

"Because Hayato wants to join the soccer club. If I join the tennis club too... I won't be able to go to the soccer club to watch him practice, nor will I be able to participate in his usual social activities. After all, the soccer club has daily training. If I also join the tennis club, our training times might overlap... Then I won't be able to go anywhere with him."

Miura Yumiko's words made sense. Yukinoshita could hear the soccer club training from here, and it looked like they were training very hard. However, there was no one training at the tennis courts, which meant the two clubs' training times might be completely different. The situation Miura Yumiko mentioned was entirely possible.

"Although I don't like your behavior, I can understand your thoughts to some extent."

"My behavior may seem a bit unreasonable to outsiders. I gave up my hobby to pursue others. But I started playing tennis to be popular. Now I am popular, which means that my purpose of playing tennis has been achieved."

Yumiko Miura stated that her purpose in playing tennis was to attract attention.

"Um...Excuse me...Do you still play tennis?"

A thin, handsome boy walked up to Yumiko Miura and asked timidly.

If he wore a skirt instead of pants, most people probably wouldn't think he was a boy.

"Aika-san, why are you here?"

Yuigahama Yui said the boy's name. Yukinoshita Yukino still remembered the boy's name. Yuigahama Yui said that it seemed that this boy pulled Hikigaya Hachiman to play men's singles in class. Could he be a member of the tennis club?

Totsuka Ayaka's answer resolved Yukinoshita Yukino's doubts.

"Actually, I'm a member of the tennis club, so naturally I'll be on the tennis court."

"Did we disturb your training? Sorry, we'll be leaving soon."

Yuigahama Yui said immediately, but she was a little confused. Is Totsuka Ayaka the only one in the tennis club? Otherwise, why did he come to the tennis court alone?

"No, the situation in the tennis club is... it's hard to describe." Totsuka Ayaka's expression was a little embarrassed when she mentioned the situation in the tennis club again. "But if you still want to play tennis... can you take me with you?"

"Is there only one person training in your tennis club?"

Miura Yumiko still had enough energy to play tennis with Totsuka Ayaka, but she was curious about the situation in the tennis club, so she simply asked Totsuka Ayaka directly.

"I'm not the only one in the tennis club anymore, but..."

Ayaka Totsuka's hesitation successfully made Yumiko Miura feel uncomfortable, and Ayaka Totsuka was not her friend, so her old habit came back again.

"Just say what you want to say. Being nagging is annoying."

Ayaka Totsuka was frightened by Miura Yumiko's appearance, but she still plucked up the courage to tell her the whole story.

"Because our Sobu High School tennis club lost every match in the tennis tournament organized by Chiba High School this summer, everyone in the club has stopped practicing. After all, they say, 'If I practice, I'll lose anyway, if I don't practice, I'll lose anyway.' So now the tennis club is practically dead. Everyone's just holed up in the club room playing poker, and no one's practicing anymore."

"But I don't want to do this. I'm terrible at tennis, so today in PE class I saw you guys playing really well, and I wanted to invite you to help me train, but I was a little scared, so I had to invite Hikigaya, who's also a guy."

"But he said he didn't have anything to ask me. Now I saw how Miura-san played tennis, so I want to invite Miura-san to teach me tennis skills. Is that okay?"

Ayaka Totsuka looked so pitiful when she asked for help, she was even about to cry because she was scared of him. It was like a cute girl asking for help from someone with tears in her eyes.

Yumiko Miura was almost fooled by his cute appearance and almost mistook him for a sister. However, when she saw his chest, which was comparable to Yukinoshita Yukino's, and that he was wearing shorts instead of a skirt, she came to her senses.

She blushed a little and said, "It can't be called guidance, I just play a game of ball with you."

Yumiko Miura picked up her racket and returned to the tennis court. This time, standing opposite her was Ayaka Totsuka.

She jumped high, swung her racket, and served, but with much less force than when she played against Ebina Hime.

However, Ayaka Totsuka still didn't catch the ball, so she ran to pick it up.

It seems that his skills are quite poor. How did he get into the tennis club with such a level? No wonder the tennis club suffered a complete defeat.

Yumiko Miura looked at Ayaka Totsuka on the field. Her skills were probably one level better than Hina Ebina's by Yui Yuigahama, and could barely be called amateur.

The match ended quickly, and the result was unsurprisingly that Ayaka Totsuka was defeated by Yumiko Miura with a score of 3-3.

"Miura-san is really amazing. Would you like to join our tennis club?"

Ayaka Totsuka smiled somewhat awkwardly. As a member of the tennis club, he didn't even get a single point from Yumiko Miura. It seemed that he had perfectly inherited the fine tradition of the Sobu High School tennis club - no wins at all.

"I already have a club. So I can't join yours."

Yumiko Miura pointed at the three people watching the show on the side, indicating that she already had a club.

"...Is that so? Then, can Miura-san still give me guidance in the future?"

As they talked, they returned to the shady place where Yukinoshita Yukino and the others were staying. Totsuka Ayaka still wanted Miura Yumiko to teach him some tennis skills.

"That...I'm afraid not."

Miura Yumiko rejected Totsuka Ayaka. She just came to play tennis with Yukinoshita Yukino on a whim today, and she couldn't guarantee to come every day in the future. So she couldn't accept Totsuka Ayaka's invitation.

"...That really bothers you."

Totsuka Ayaka said apologetically.

"Well...if you really want to improve your skills, you should first improve your basic skills and physical fitness."

Yumiko Miura still pointed out the shortcomings of Ayaka Totsuka. The club did not train him, which resulted in his basic skills and physical fitness being very poor.

"Thank you."

Ayaka Totsuka didn't expect that Yumiko Miura would give him advice in the end, and he expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

"There's nothing to thank me for... These are things that the seniors in your club should say."

Yuigahama Yui and Ebina Hina could clearly sense that Miura Yumiko's tsundere personality was at work, and she said one thing and meant another.

"Um...are there any other new members in your club besides you?"

Yukinoshita Yukino asked Totsuka Ayaka a question, and it seemed that she had an idea.

"There are two from other classes, but they were severely impacted when everyone came in. They also started playing cards with the seniors in the club."

"Then why don't you join? You've already lost everything, so I don't think you'll get much better no matter how hard you try."

"But if I don't try, how can I know the results? I still want to give it a try. After all, I still love tennis. At least I want to enjoy the process of the game with everyone, instead of just sitting down and watching each other lose."

It seems that the first-grade students did not participate in the competition. This seems to be a rule that new freshmen cannot participate in the competition. No matter how good you are, you have to start by picking up the ball.
