"Oh, I see." Onoya's mood calmed down. "What do you think of Mr. Lin Yan? He seems like a nice person, right?"

"Yes!" Ye Ming also gave an affirmative answer.
"Which grade do you think would be best for him?" Onoya An was eager to make a name for himself, no wonder she was so excited about his first case!
However, things took an entirely unexpected turn.
“I went to convenience stores to observe whether you were suitable to be a test subject.”
This sudden narration felt a bit abrupt, Onoya Anne continued talking to herself.
"Aoba's academic abilities aren't really suited to you, are they? Actually, you should have gone to the high school I was studying at. I've been investigating and observing you since last year, and I was really looking forward to spending our reborn lives together. But..." Onoya seemed about to reveal a huge secret, but he was rudely interrupted before he could finish.
Ye Ming was clearly furious and shouted angrily!
"Onoya."
Ye Ming's brows were tightly furrowed, his anger barely contained. It might erupt at any moment, but he was still trying his best to suppress it.
However, Onoya doesn't seem to realize what's going on, or perhaps she's deliberately testing Yoake's limits!
“But I can’t complete the training within a year!” Onoya was repeatedly provoking trouble by testing the waters. She continued, “It seems like Yoru-senpai didn’t want me to expose him from the start, but he did too! Didn’t you hear him say that he trained in Aoba for two years?”
"Now that you mention it, I have heard him talk about it before."
"The training period is actually a year. But it's really too hard to keep up with high school students in terms of academics or physical strength at this age. And you see, there is a generation gap between us and high school students! So it takes a lot of time to naturally play the role of an active high school student."
At this moment, Onoya glanced at Lin Yan, seemingly realizing that he had gained support, while Lin Yan at this moment only wanted to be a qualified bystander.
Ye Mingliao also felt a lot of helplessness. With such an unpredictable and erratic junior on the beach, what other choice did she have but to clean up her mess?
"So Onoya is currently repeating her second year of training. I took over your case in her place, and considering that observing the work of the person in charge up close should also help Onoya's future work, that's why she transferred to our class. That's how it is."
The explanation has been explained in detail up to this point.
"But she's too close to you. You really need to know when to stop!" Ye Mingliao gave Onoya a hard tap on the head. Actually, Ye Mingliao was already quite lenient with Onoya. He was always protecting this junior who often caused trouble! After all, sometimes getting angry at someone isn't real; it's just a selfish venting. It's because he's worried and anxious for their sake.
"Ouch! Ouch! I'm sorry!" Onoya had had enough of this, so he obediently begged for mercy. Onoya knew that this trick always worked on Yoru Akira.
"I'm so sorry for causing you so much trouble today." This was the first time Ye Ming had apologized so earnestly.
Moreover, it was clearly Onoya who was in the wrong, but Yoake was the one apologizing, which suggests that the relationship between the two is indeed not simple.
"Please continue to guide me in the future," Ye Ming said sincerely to Lin Yan, though he still felt a little guilty.

"fine."
Lin Yan's eyes were incredibly calm, as deep as the bottom of a dark lake, exuding an unfathomable aura! Lin Yan also knew that Ye Ming's earlier statement was only half true. However, Lin Yan did not want to expose this lie at this moment.
"Then we're leaving."
Onoya and Yoru left and stopped at a small park, sitting side by side on a bench. Onoya knew he had caused trouble that day and said sullenly.
"Senior, are you angry?"
"Do you think I'm not angry? You've said too much! I'm sweating bullets, worried about how far you're going to go..." Yoru was actually quite angry, but he couldn't be too harsh in front of outsiders. In the end, he was too lenient with Onoya.
"Hahaha! Your flustered look is so funny."
Onoya was still teetering on the edge of danger, constantly testing the limits. Yoru was truly helpless in this regard; his smile betrayed a hidden anger. Even if Onoya was completely oblivious to the situation, he had already realized the gravity of the matter.
"So what exactly was the show you put on today? Trying to test Mr. Lin Yan's personality? You really dare to say that! This kind of thing should have been confirmed during the candidate stage last year, and we should have investigated him repeatedly. After the experiment started, we should have followed the regulations to observe him as thoroughly as possible. What are the subjects' feelings, how do they think, how do they act, and what changes might occur during their high school life? The purpose of the experiment is to observe these situations. I've told you many times, it's meaningless if we staff members waver in our hearts." Ye Mingliao kept rambling on and on. Actually, Ye Mingliao wasn't a meddlesome person, but since the subject was Onoya, that was a different story.
"Like this... following the rules, didn't you cause No.001's rebirth plan to fail last year?" Onoya interrupted abruptly. Amidst Yoruaki's rambling, Onoya's words now carried a hint of seriousness.
Ye Ming's mind suddenly went blank. His thoughts paused for a few seconds, and then he remained silent for a while. His mind was filled with a thousand thoughts, like a tangled ball of yarn that he could not untangle!
"Won't you regret that, even as the person in charge, you should have engaged with the other party more deeply?"
"I don't want to do this. Although the first subject I was in charge of was the one I was originally assigned to, I wanted him to feel fortunate to have participated in the Rebirth Project. I wanted this project to succeed. Even though I'm no longer his supervisor, I still want to maintain a connection with him. Not as his classmate, but as a staff member. That's why I went too far. I'm sorry!" After a long silence, Ye Mingliao finally spoke.
"I have no regrets." After saying this, Ye Ming swallowed hard and tapped his feet repeatedly on the ground, a small gesture that clearly showed how nervous he was at that moment.
Having spent so many years with Yoru, Onoya was naturally very familiar with these things and immediately saw through Yoru's emotions!
When a person is nervous, the nervous system in the head will automatically contract, which in turn will cause the nerves throughout the body to tighten. This manifests as biting the lower lip tightly, in order to hide one's inner tension and anxiety.
0062 No. 001 [Please Subscribe]
If you notice someone biting their lower lip while you're talking to them, you can tell they're feeling nervous.
Therefore, you can perceive the other person's inner vulnerability, discomfort, and pressure through this small action.
"This experiment is to see how the subjects will change. The result of no change is also a reference sample, which is just the rebirth life chosen by No.001."
"Yes!" Onoya couldn't help but smile. She found such a small gesture quite adorable. Especially since Yoru, who was always so steady, mature, and composed in his work, never making a mistake and always handling things with ease, was showing such nervousness. This little gesture seemed especially cute; it was the contrast that made him so endearing.
There is actually a deeper reason.
That's what they mean by "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." No matter how subtle the gesture, it will only be clearly seen by the person paying attention. For example, Onoya's attention to Yoru Akira happened without anyone noticing.
At the same time, Onoya certainly knew that Yoru had lied again, but he just didn't expose him. The unreliable Onoya wasn't as untrustworthy as he seemed.
"However, like you, I want this plan to succeed."
Ye Mingliao suddenly stopped his small movements, indicating that his emotions had calmed down.
"I haven't achieved anything, and I've taken over the case that was your responsibility. You may hate me, but please believe me on this point!"
Onoya understood Yoru better than anyone else. No one was more responsible towards the experimenters; his dedication was 100%, his wholehearted effort solely for the experiment's success. Onoya always saw Yoru in his eyes!
Dislike? That's an emotion I would never have.
Onoya wanted to hide his feelings, so he spoke to Yoru in a very exaggerated manner.
You think about the subjects more seriously than anyone else, and you always work hard for them. I've been watching you up close.
"Yes."
"Why are you so impatient? Should I report everything that happened today to the higher-ups and make you write a self-criticism?" Ye Ming's heart skipped a beat, but he also felt a bit helpless.
"This is outrageous! This is abuse of power!"
"Who went too far! They actually attempted to sexually harass someone else's test subject."
"That was originally my test subject." The two were already bickering again in less than fifteen minutes, but Onoya was secretly smiling. Just being able to stay by this person's side was happiness, no matter what.
I'll stay by your side forever! Someone once said that companionship is the most enduring expression of love.
"Yes Yes!"
Actually, the most innocent person was someone else entirely, and that was Lin Yan! A perfectly good Golden Week holiday was wasted in vain! Lin Yan stretched and breathed in the fresh air of the school.
I didn't expect to get used to the atmosphere here in such a short time. During the Golden Week holiday, I really missed school life.
Suddenly, I saw a familiar figure from behind!
Good morning, Hiyo-kun.
"Good morning, Lin Yan." Chizuru Himejiro turned around and greeted Lin Yan.
"long time no see!"
"haven't seen you for a long time.".

"morning."
After exchanging greetings, the two entered the classroom one after the other. In the corridor, Lin Yan encountered Xiao Jin. Although his first impression of the teacher was that she was too young and somewhat naive, her dedication and professionalism were truly admirable, and her ability to put herself in the students' shoes was also commendable. Lin Yan decided to face the 'test' of this world head-on.
"By the way, teacher, please don't give my personal information to other people so easily!" After a brief greeting, Lin Yan became more cautious and said to Ms. Ozu. Of course, he had already guessed most of it, but he wanted to get confirmation from Ms. Ozu.
"Oh?" A look of doubt appeared on Mr. Ozu's face. In fact, it was pretty much confirmed by now. Lin Yan was quite certain in his heart, but he still continued to speak.
"Annoya said she learned my address from the teacher."
“How could I possibly tell her! The school is very strict about protecting students’ personal information now!” Xiao Jin is a very meticulous person. She absolutely does not allow anything to violate school rules at work. She is a model of being lenient with others but strict with herself.
"Oh."
"Is that what Onoya-san told you?"
"No! I must have made a mistake! Please forget about it!" Lin Yan was considerate of Onoya, wanting to avoid causing more trouble later. At the same time, he secretly thought to himself, this quirky Onoya really knows how to lie without batting an eye; he's a real little devil!
"As for the make-up exams, the teachers in charge of clubs will be quite busy during this period, and it might be a bit difficult to find them after class. So I think most of the time, substitute teachers will be there to guide you. I'm sorry! Because there's a competition in June, the third-year students will be retiring after that." Mr. Ozu, true to his reputation as a dedicated teacher, didn't forget his job and knew his responsibilities even now, thus circling back to this important topic: the students' exam results.
"Oh. Teacher, which club are you an advisor for?" Tamaki Moka walked into the teachers' office at this moment, and Ms. Ozu greeted her, "You're here, Moka."
"I'm here. Hehehe!" Yu Lai Mengxiang was a little shy. She smiled shyly and then glanced at Lin Yan beside her.
Tamaki Moka is a member of the volleyball club along with Reina. She is the captain of the volleyball club and has excellent athletic performance but poor academic performance.
He appears extremely refined, but in reality possesses immense strength.
An athletic genius with extraordinary physical abilities.
She likes to drink milk. She has large breasts.
She is childhood friends with Inukai Akatsuki and Asaji Nobunaga, and is called "Tama" by the two of them. Akatsuki is very protective of her.
She possesses exceptional athletic talent, which made her the object of jealousy in junior high school. As a result, she turned down all the recommendations from top sports schools and chose Aoba High School for further education. However, thanks to Rena's encouragement, she rejoined the volleyball club and enjoyed three happy years with them.
On the eve of his retirement from the competition, he caused Rena to get injured due to his own negligence, which led to a rift in his friendship with Rena and caused him to become depressed. However, with the help of Chizuru and Shinta, he reconciled with Rena.
"Lin Yan, this is our club's captain."
"So the teacher is from the volleyball club."

"Lin Yan, classmate." Yu Lai Mengxiang greeted Lin Yan formally with a bright smile, a smile that was as refreshing as a spring breeze.
Actually, Yu Lai Mengxiang had been paying attention to Lin Yan for a long time, after all, Lin Yan had already become a popular figure on campus. He had appeared on the campus forum, and the description of Lin Yan received most of the likes.
Although the description is somewhat exaggerated—he appears to be unrestrained and carefree on the outside, but the shrewd glint in his eyes makes him someone to be reckoned with. He has thick, jet-black hair, and beneath his sword-like eyebrows are a pair of slender, captivating eyes, full of affection that can easily make one fall for him.
A high, straight nose and perfectly proportioned red lips were now adorned with a dazzling smile. 2: A mischievous grin, even the thick eyebrows seemed to ripple with gentle waves, as if always carrying a smile, curved like the bright crescent moon in the night sky.
His fair skin accentuated his pale pink lips, his handsome and prominent features, and his perfectly shaped face. Dressed in pure white, he exuded an air of grandeur.
Now, I have the opportunity to talk to my Prince Charming. Although I'm a little shy, I definitely won't let such a wonderful opportunity slip by.
"Hello! Reina, you've always taken good care of me."
"No, I should be the one saying that," Ms. Ozu said to Lin Yan, and then said to Yu Lai, "Really, Moka, don't bully him."
"Hehe! Sorry." Yu Lai's smile remained bright, and she even acted cute. Even passersby could see the sparkle in her eyes. Luckily, Ms. Ozu was a rather oblivious person, otherwise she would have nipped this early romance in the bud!
What Ms. Ozu said next surprised Lin Yan. He never expected that such a well-behaved and clever girl would also be a poor student!
"You failed five subjects! As the team leader, you can't participate in club activities because you need to retake the exams. You can't set a good example for the other team members, so you have to pass the retake exams within a week!"
"oh oh."
"Oh what?!"
"I will work hard."
At that moment, physical education teacher Hiroshi Usa walked into the classroom office and couldn't help but complain when he saw Tamara.
"The captain can't participate in the club because he failed five exams. Mr. Ozu, that's too lax! No one in our men's volleyball club failed anything!"
Lin Yan had always disliked such arrogant attitudes and behaviors, especially those with such a strong competitive spirit.
"You weak and pathetic group are so annoying."
"You guys will probably be eliminated in the men's preliminary round anyway, right?"
Ozu and Tamara exchanged a smile; their understanding was flawless. Intelligent girls truly do understand each other, especially when dealing with foolish men—a truly delightful situation.
"It's fine if you say bad things about me, but don't attack them!! They work very hard!!"
“But our club isn’t that strong!” Ozu could only try to comfort him. “It’s just that Moka is exceptionally talented.”
