My daily life in love is too contrary to my character.

Which Olympics had an unprecedented opening ceremony, reminiscent of the Underworld Games?

"The Tokyo Olympics will probably never be repeated."

.......

Soga Kirei threw out more than a dozen questions in different directions, and Shiraishi Sawa Hideya answered them all accurately.

"See, President, no problem. If we're in the top 0.5% tomorrow, I'll treat you all to dinner."

"you?"

"Ichiru said she'd come over tomorrow to cheer me on. Takanashi is much better at memorizing than I am. If I can advance, she definitely can too. Tomorrow, the two of us will treat you, Ichiru, and the senior who tutors Takanashi to dinner."

"Don't you do it yourselves?"

"What we made wasn't as fancy or delicious as what you get outside. Let's go for a big meal tomorrow!"

Soga nods, but her expression is somewhat regretful.

Shiraishi Sawa put the last piece of watermelon in his mouth, glanced at the time, and said, "It's getting late, President. I see you've been writing about student council matters all morning. You have a meeting this afternoon, so let's call it a day. I can't take up any more of your time."

After packing their things, the two of them got up and left the classroom together.

--

“You’ve started your bird-like swimming again,” Shiraishi Sawa said, drying his wet hair with a towel as he came out of the bathroom. “You’ve been watching this ever since you got home, and you’re not even caring about your beloved Mimi anymore.”

"Mimi, come here."

After a period of training, Mimi finally learned that 'Mimi' was its official name. However, when Shiraishi Sawa called it 'Yuko' in private, it reacted just as well, even more so than when 'Mimi' was called.

Hearing the call, Mimi came over happily and started tickling Shiraishi Zexiu's calf.

Yuko Takanashi was completely absorbed in the documents in her hands, her entire being focused solely on scanning each line with her head. "The more I read, the more confident I become."

"You answered all the questions we asked you on the way back correctly, and each time it was the official standard answer from the book. I feel like you've even memorized the number of printings of these books. If I were you, I would already be thinking about how to spend the prize money from the semi-finals."

After wiping the water droplets from his hair, Shiraishi Sawa returned to the bathroom and picked up the hairdryer.

"I'll blow-dry my hair and make noise for a while."

"It's your turn to shower, Takanashi, while there's still plenty of hot water."

"I understand. I'll go wash up after I finish reading this chapter."

“Okay,” Shiraishi Sawa Hide didn’t go back to his room to lie down immediately after showering as usual. Instead, he sat down next to Takanashi and took out an encyclopedia to start reading.

"Aren't you going back to your room to rest, Shiraishi-kun?" Takanashi Yuuko asked, looking at Shiraishi Sawashu with surprise.

"Not urgent."

After finishing reading the last paragraph of the chapter in her hand, Takanashi Yuko put down the book and went back to her room to get her clothes to prepare for a bath.

After she entered the bathroom and the door clicked shut, Shiraishi Sawa finally got his chance.

After putting all the documents on the coffee table and sofa into his room, Shiraishi Sawah nodded in satisfaction.

--

"Shiraishi-kun, are you there? Are you asleep?"

There was a knock on the door.

As expected, Shiraishi Sawahide, who hadn't even lain down, went over and opened the door.

"My book..."

Before Yuuko Takanashi could finish her question, Hideaki Shiraishi waved his hand.

"I know what you're going to ask, but give up. Those books are all here with me, I won't give them to you. You went to bed at one or two in the morning yesterday, and the official competition starts tomorrow morning, so you have to go to bed early tonight."

After saying that, his expression turned strange. "Or you can think of it as me planning to stay up all night studying, but I'm deliberately trying to prevent you from having the chance to overtake me."

"That's not what I meant, Shiraishi-kun."

"Just kidding. Anyway, don't even think about reading tonight. Go back to sleep and rest. Your body will be so relaxed after a shower that it's the most comfortable time to sleep."

"I understand." Takanashi Yuko nodded helplessly.

"Oh, right," Shiraishizawa added before closing the door, "Don't lock the door tonight. If I come out to 'inspect' and find you secretly continuing to study on your phone, you're doomed. Goodnight, sweet dreams, Takanashi-chan!"

The room door slammed shut.

After finishing all that, Shiraishi Zexiu took off his clothes and pants with satisfaction, crawled into the quilt, and stretched.

After chatting on my phone for a while, I listened to a few quiet and gentle instrumental pieces before going to sleep.

There was another knock on the door, along with Yuko Takanashi's slightly tearful voice.

"Shiraishi-kun...?"

"What's wrong?" Upon hearing the sobbing voice, Shiraishi Zexiu didn't dare to delay. He immediately put on a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, got up, and opened the door.

Yuko Takanashi, clutching a teddy bear tightly with her face pressed against its head, looked like she was on the verge of tears.

"What's going on with the bird? Are there bugs in your room?" This was the most likely explanation that Shiraishi Sawa thought was the case.

"No, could I... lock the door?"

"Huh?" The unexpected path and the completely different answer from what Shiraishi Sawa had anticipated.

"I promise I won't look at my phone while studying. I was just lying down to go to sleep, but because I don't know when you'll be coming to my room, I... I can't sleep at all! If you're really worried, I can leave my phone with you!"

......

Shiraishi Zexiu looked slightly embarrassed; he didn't actually intend to get checked.

"I understand, Takanashi. It's my problem. I didn't consider that. You can lock the door now."

"No, it's my problem. I know you mean well, Shiraishi-kun, but I can't fall asleep like this. This is my phone..."

Hideaki Shiraishi pushed Yuko Takanashi's hand, which was holding the phone, back.

"No need to give it to me, Takanashi. I trust you completely with what you promised. Besides, I really didn't consider this part this time. Go back and rest now."

Takanashi Yuuko nodded, said "Thank you very much," and then went back with the teddy bear. Shiraishi Sawa Hide also heard the sound of the door lock turning after the door closed.

Shaking his head with a bit of a laugh, Shiraishi Sawah went back to bed to sleep.

Chapter 87's title is just that, just that, just that.

"May I take a look now?"

Takanashi Yuuko, munching on her steamed bun in small bites, asked Shiraishi Sawa Hide, who was sitting opposite her, in a timid voice.

"I'm really impressed with you. You can see it now, I'll get it for you."

Shiraishi Sawa shook his head helplessly, took a steamed bun in his mouth, went back to his room, took out all the teaching materials confiscated yesterday, and handed them to Takanashi Yuko.

Takanashi Yuko started eating breakfast while reading, while Shiraishi Sawa Hide scrolled through today's news next to her.

"Let's go, we can catch the next bus if we go now."

After breakfast, the two headed to the subway station. On the way, when it was inconvenient to read, Takanashi Yuuko sought out Shiraishi Sawa Hide for a Q&A session.

"President!"

"Kawada-senpai! Sakura-chan!"

As the two walked to the school gate, they saw the student council president, Kuramochi Sakura, and Kawada Ruka, the senior student who was in charge of tutoring Takanashi Yuuko.

"Thank you for your hard work, President! Didn't Ichiri-san come?" Seeing Soga Kirei shake her head, Shiraishi Sawa smacked his lips. "Ichiri-san is truly a woman's lying devil."

"They're probably late."

"That's true. Anyway, the match won't end for at least an hour. Just come then. Actually, you didn't have to come so early, President. Now it's hard on you to wait so long."

"It's alright, Shiroshi. Did you bring your student ID and resident basic record? They'll check them when you go in."

“I brought them,” Shiraishi Sawa Hide took out two cards from his wallet and showed them to Soga Kirei. “You can rest assured now, Chairman.”

Seeing that Yuko Takanashi had finished exchanging pleasantries with the two people, Shiraishi Sawah nodded to indicate that they could go in.

"President, we're going in. Could you please wait somewhere nearby where you can rest?"

--

After being checked by the security guard at the gate, the two entered the school. The handsome man and beautiful woman, Shiraishi Sawa and Takanashi Yuko, instantly attracted the attention of many people.

The school grounds were filled with school uniforms from various schools in Tokyo, exuding a youthful and energetic atmosphere. Shiraishi Sawah instinctively admired the girls' school uniforms.

This dress is too white and too thin.

This bow is too big.

........

The two then went to the notice board to find their seat numbers. Although their numbers were not consecutive, they were in the same computer room.

Upon arriving at the classroom, everyone took their assigned seats according to their seat numbers. Since there were only a few computer labs available, and the number of participants in this competition was relatively large, there was no space between seats to prevent cheating.

Each computer was assigned to a student, so there were actually three proctors in one classroom: one at the front to check students' identities and confiscate their phones, and two walking back and forth on either side of the classroom.

It hasn't even started yet, so I don't know why we need to move around...

Hideaki Shiraishi sat in the fourth row, while Yuko Takanashi sat in the first row.

I checked my watch; it was 8:50, ten minutes before the exam started. My phone had been confiscated, leaving me with nothing to do. My computer was also locked to the competition software interface, so I had no room to operate it.

Out of boredom, Shiraishi Sawa started naming each of his hand joints until the teacher started handing out scratch paper, which relieved his boredom.

Because there were many math problems in the competition, and participants were not allowed to bring anything other than a pen, each person was allocated three sheets of scratch paper.

Shiraishi Sawa wrote down some lengthy names of foreign inventors and some easily confused points of knowledge on it.

The classroom quickly filled up. Unfortunately, Shiraishi Sawa didn't encounter any beautiful girls from other schools; the people sitting on either side of him were boys, who would occasionally glance at him.

Shiraishi Sawa does not practice fencing.

The unchanging interface has finally changed.

"The competition will begin in 60 seconds. All candidates, please note the following instructions:..."

Shiraishi Sawah scrolled to the bottom and clicked "OK," leaving only a countdown timer on the screen.

"3, 2, 1 -- The competition officially begins. Candidates, please begin answering the questions."
