"My friend, you are so handsome, you are stealing the spotlight."

"I'm just an extra, I'm handsome... Is it my fault that I stole the spotlight?"

"Brother, why are your crying scenes so natural?"

"A pure young man who has never experienced the blessing of 996 will not understand... This is called emotional acting, I understand and I don't understand."

"Senior, why are you not interested in topics about love?"

"Watching romance? Then why not watch two-dimensional paper people? Isn't the original purpose of men filming movies to transform themselves?"

The director nodded silently and stood up, patting Sakakibara Kaede on the shoulder, "You will be the lead actor, and you choose the female lead, Sakurajima Mai, Higuchi Madoka, or Ichinose Chizuru?"

Chapter 1: Time Travel Is Unreasonable

It was three o'clock in the afternoon, close to the end of high school. During this time, some students had already entered the playground and started a day of club activities, shedding the sweat of youth.

Compared to the colorful cherry blossom campus life outside the window, the atmosphere in the office can definitely be described as gray. If a person's anger bar could be displayed, it would definitely be lava red.

"Sakakibara - how long has it been since you turned on your phone?"

"Um... I was playing Candy Crush last night."

"Your phone is not turned on!"

"You were still playing Match 3 last night!"

"You didn't answer my call!"

The iron fist of justice kept hitting Sakakibara Kaede's shoulder mercilessly with one question after another. The latter grimaced and felt that his shoulder blade was about to break.

Kaede Sakakibara moved his chair back, keeping a seemingly safe distance.

"So the number of missed calls 99+ was from you!"

"Call me Hiratsuka-sensei."

Hiratsuka Shizuka's face was filled with dissatisfaction, and she crossed her legs and swayed them, "Sakakibara, I haven't seen you for half a year. You have become much more cheerful. At least you are much better than the zombie you were half a year ago."

Because the person inside has changed.

When Kaede Sakakibara woke up yesterday, she found herself in an icy stream. People around her were pointing, watching, and taking pictures.

"Sakakibara Kaede" went to commit suicide, and he succeeded.

After finding the wet student ID in his wallet, Kaede Sakakibara walked into Sobu High School with a relaxed pace the next day. As soon as he stepped into the classroom, he was greeted with strange and surprised looks.

Then, Kaede Sakakibara was brought to the office by his homeroom teacher, Shizuka Hiratsuka.

Then he learned a fact that the original owner, Sakakibara Kaede, had been on leave from school for half a year.

Golden leaves were floating outside the window. Sakakibara Kaede blinked his blue eyes and looked out the window. The coolness of autumn should have made him feel refreshed, but he was feeling a little depressed.

The time travel was too sudden and totally unreasonable. I finished my work one moment and fell asleep in my rental house with hope for the future, and the next moment I took a cold shower. Didn't people on the Internet say that time travel depends on trucks? Why not the chicken book method?

Where's the truck? Where's my truck!

Well, at least the time travel brought him a language, which solved his problem of only being able to listen and read Japanese, which is a necessary skill for eating raw meat.

"Sakakibara... are you listening?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka stroked her forehead with her fingers, her tone gradually becoming calmer, "The unified college entrance examination will be held in about three months. What do you think, Sakakibara?"

The unified college entrance examination is held in January every year. Candidates can choose examination subjects according to the requirements of the university they want to apply for and their own strengths, and choose between liberal arts or science. The subjects and university choices in the college entrance examination can affect people's future direction.

Students who graduate from the literature department are not necessarily great writers, students who graduate from the mathematics department are not necessarily mathematicians, and students who graduate from the archaeology department... can only do archaeology.

Kaede Sakakibara originally majored in mathematics, and when he graduated he vowed to use his mathematical knowledge to change society and benefit the society.

That year at TI, China won the Immortal Shield. Kaede Sakakibara graduated after his thesis defense and became a graduate student. He then worked hard to take the civil service exam, but the competition was too fierce, so he gave up the torturous exam that he had taken many times in a year.

After leaving university, I joined an outsourcing company and started out by doing groceries. Workplace affairs are nothing but a mess. It is not diplomas that count, but connections, emotional intelligence and qualifications. A few company employees are scheming against each other and trying to be scabs, but most of them are just slacking off and having fun. In addition to having to deal with the boss's pua exploitation, you also have to be told what to do by the client.

Thanks to him, Sakakibara learned a lot of technical skills and mastered modeling, programming, and user interaction. Out of his love for the second dimension, he also bought a lot of online painting courses, imitated Bluebird teacher to draw erotic pictures, and posted a lot of them on P station, which was quite gratifying.

If the story goes on like this, it is nothing more than lying flat in the workplace for a few years, smoothly appreciating, and buying a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment in the third ring road of Beijing before middle age is not an unattainable dream. Live in one room and rent out two, and live on the rent every month, and continue to lie flat, which is also a lifestyle.

"Asshole, if I continue playing for another two years I can get a loan for the down payment." Sakakibara Kaede waved his fists and angrily cursed the injustice of God.

“How can young people be so decadent?”

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at Sakakibara Kaede's self-degradation and couldn't help but sigh deeply, "Sakakibara, people should have dreams. Is your dream just a house? When school started, you swore to me that you would be admitted to the Department of Literature at the University of Tokyo!"

Really unfamiliar.

Sakakibara Kaede coughed repeatedly. "Department of Literature at the University of Tokyo? Why didn't you say you could get into Tsinghua University or Peking University in three months?"

"Your previous deviation value was 55. You will definitely not be able to catch up after taking a half-year break. Moreover, you are taking the liberal arts exam. You need to spend time to memorize subjects such as Japanese history, world history, and geography. The school will arrange after-school tutoring for you. Well... you were originally going to go back to the home department. You can take tutoring until about six o'clock every day after class. That should be no problem, right?"

"Forehead..."

The pressure of the college entrance examination came back to him again. He had almost forgotten all the knowledge points. Sakakibara Feng complained in his heart. In his previous life, he was a master of the examination papers. He relied on his extraordinary memory and the help of 5 years of college entrance examination and 3 years of simulation. It was the same in high school and college. He stayed in the library every day with the goal of studying for graduate school.

Before he opened his mouth to say anything, he felt Hiratsuka Shizuka's eyes fixed on his chest. She was probably prepared for Sakakibara Kaede to reject her on the spot and then take him away with a Black Tiger Heart-Ripping Move.

"Teacher Hiratsuka, I need to eat."

"Let's be frank and honest." Shizuka Hiratsuka was so angry that she laughed. Seeing that there was no one in the office, she rubbed her fists and prepared to wake Sakakibara Kaede up.

"Mr. Hiratsuka, I'm so poor that I can't even make ends meet. I'm going to look for a part-time job after school today."

Kaede Sakakibara receives 100,000 yen a month for living expenses from his father who doesn't care much about him.

The original owner spent all the 70,000 yen this month on in-game purchases.

Krypton's physical strength in Candy Crush Saga.

There was no way out for himself.

Her mother died of illness a year ago, and her father worked away from home all year round, rarely contacting the original owner and not caring about her. Kaede Sakakibara, who has no friends, has become a shut-in in the Japanese social class. In a few years, she will become a dependent.

The blow of his mother's death, the pressure of life, and the urgency of the college entrance examination made the confused young man unable to hold on any longer and he was on the verge of collapse.

Kaede Sakakibara broke away from his memories, coughed and continued talking.

"How about this, Mr. Hiratsuka? I'll come to school tomorrow to take the test. If the deviation value reaches 60, you will allow me to work part-time."

"65."

Shizuka Hiratsuka sneered. She would prepare some examples carefully tonight and give a good greeting to this little bird with strong wings tomorrow.

"make a deal."

Kaede Sakakibara put on her schoolbag, bowed to Shizuka Hiratsuka, and then quickly left the office to prevent Shizuka Hiratsuka from making more demands.

After quickly finishing the cheap bread he bought from the convenience store, Sakakibara Kaede stood on tiptoe to dispel the fatigue caused by sitting for a long time, and walked into the bathroom nearby to wash his face.

Flowers in the fog are not clear. When I wiped the water drops from my eyes and looked up again, I saw a peerless beauty, with a teardrop mole at the corner of her eyes, stirring the snow all over the sky. It was like the chrysanthemums in spring, the pine and bamboo in summer, the orchid in autumn, and the winter plum in winter.

What a handsome and elegant young man!

Like Jack in Titanic, Romeo in Romeo and Juliet, Joe Bradley in Roman Holiday.

Handsome, fresh and refined, casual and suave.

With this appearance, he can be a sunny handsome guy or a cool and abstinent guy. Sakakibara Kaede rubbed his deep dark circles and retracted his clear blue eyes.

The three characters mentioned above have one thing in common: they have no money.

How long can you live on 30,000 yen? This is a question worth pondering.

"Poverty... Oh, poverty."

"I will expel you from this world, without leaving any trace!"

Chapter 2 Extras Temporary Work, Meals Included

A girl's muffled laughter was heard from outside the door.

Sakakibara Kaede had a stern face. Even though he was thick-skinned, he felt a little embarrassed at this moment. His long-lost second-year student speech was actually heard by a female classmate.

After drying his hands, Sakakibara Kaede pushed the door open and walked out.

He caught the culprit red-handed, or rather, the other party had no intention of leaving at all.

The girl is an outlier in school.

The boys' uniform at Sobu High School is a suit with trousers and a tie. The girls' upper body is similar to the boys', and the lower body is a blue plaid pleated skirt.

It is common sense to wear school uniforms in school.

A young girl was sitting on a bench at the door of the office, browsing her phone. She was wearing a brown sweater on the upper body and a beige velvet coat on the outside. In October, when the temperature was over 10 degrees Celsius, she was still wearing denim shorts, revealing two slender and round long legs. Following the line of sight downward, she could see small gray canvas shoes on her feet.

"A naked gaze will reduce your impression points, middle school senior." The girl had smooth black hair and her red lips moved slightly.

"I think any man would look at you like this." Sakakibara Kaede cleared his throat and said to the man in front of him who looked like an outsider, "I don't think you're observing carefully."

"Oh? What are you observing?"

Sakakibara pointed to her own azure eyes and said, "My sight is pure appreciation. Your hair color, eye color and clothes match well with each other. This color tone reminds me of Monet's painting of the Capitol at sunset. The gray color in the haze is intoxicating."

The girl's face flushed with shame. "This is the first time I've seen someone call flirting an art. Can I call the police?"

After saying that, she showed Sakakibara Kaede the screen of her mobile phone. There were three bright numbers above the dial pad: 110.

"Don't!" Sakakibara Feng raised his hand and said seriously, "The part about art just now was a joke, but this outfit suits you very well. As the saying goes, a gentleman loves a beautiful lady. Do you have the heart to send the person who just praised you to the police station?"

After saying this, Sakakibara Kaede suddenly had an idea. Wait, I can get free pork chop rice when I go to the police station!

Sakakibara Kaede felt a little regretful as he walked down the stairs.

"Come in, Sakurajima."

Shizuka Hiratsuka stood in front of the office door and motioned the girl to go in.

"Ok."

The girl glanced at Sakakibara Kaede's back again, and was rudely turned away by Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"The more handsome a man is, the more likely he is to lie. Don't let that jerk senior fool you one day, Mingxing-kun."

"Hiratsuka-sensei really knows how to joke."

The office door closed with a click.

Students were running around on the playground, and some girls were sitting on the green grass beside the playground, talking to each other and giggling from time to time. For many of them, this was their last autumn in high school.

The coming of winter symbolizes farewell, and January of next year is the time to go our separate ways and part ways amicably.

Sakakibara Kaede saw it all, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. As a worker, he tasted the taste of youth that he had not felt for a long time. Although he was not a part of this youth, he might as well drink by himself in his spare time, when he was tired, or when he was upset, and recall the stupid things he had done in the past.

He is in the Going Home Club. As the name suggests, he goes home as soon as school is over and has no social life or club activities. Sakakibara Kaede plans to make use of this time and survive first.

He had to go home and put the three dried Fukuzawa Yukichi pictures into his wallet.

"I am back."

There was no "welcome home" as he had imagined. Sakakibara Kaede looked at the dark room, dragged his schoolbag onto the tatami, walked forward and opened the curtains.

It was a small room, but for Kaede Sakakibara, it was a shelter where she could rest.

Last night he stumbled home from the icy river, took a hot bath and then lay dead.

Only then did Sakakibara Kaede have time to look at his future residence. It was furnished with simple furniture, a few boys' comics with their corners turned on the bookshelf, a wooden guitar, and an old computer.

There were instant noodles on the table that the original owner had not finished eating, there were no vegetables or meat in the refrigerator, there were several boxes of ice cream in the freezer, and the cupboard was full of instant noodle boxes which made Sakakibara Feng speechless. Who could bear to eat these every day?

Eating instant noodles and ice cream every day will really ruin your body. Sakakibara Kaede had already experienced physical weakness and powerlessness when taking a shower yesterday.

Let's set a small goal first, and split it 50-50 with Shizuka Hiratsuka.

In addition to eating some vegetables and meat every day, you also need to take time to exercise.

Despite his boastful words, Sakakibara Kaede is not very good at cooking, but he is able to make a hodgepodge by soaking all the vegetables in boiling water.
