My love game with them that will lead to certain death

"In order to ensure that our daily lives can go on smoothly and not be discovered by those around us, let's list a set of rules for when we swap bodies, Toru."

Chapter 9 Blushing Puberty

Since it is unclear when the strange abnormal phenomenon of body swapping can stop, Toru and Eriri reach an agreement to maintain a stable daily life.

Together, they compiled the "Body Swap Rules," which listed several rules that the siblings had to follow.

The first rule of body swapping is that you are not allowed to use your body to flirt with the opposite sex, or to have any more intimate contact with them than that of a classmate.

Although the brother and sister do not have a stable partner, it is better not to create trouble in such a place in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Oh ha, junior sister! Everyone today is so beautiful, with bright eyes and white teeth, so beautiful that they are beyond description...!"

"Sawamura-san is really... very enthusiastic today!"

But when he saw the girl with long golden hair chatting with the girls around her, and even looking quite proud of herself surrounded by the girls, the curly-haired boy clicked his tongue softly.

Although her brother was originally a very popular type in school, and despite his weird personality he did look like a decent person, so many girls had a crush on him - but because he was always inseparable from Eriri, other girls were always afraid to approach him because of Eriri's presence.

Eriri really wanted to make trouble, and even wanted to join the boys' group with her brother's body, which made Toru feel a little annoyed by her chatting with the boys. However, she had no idea about the topics between boys and she would just be an outsider even if she squeezed in - in the end, she withdrew from the conversation with the boys with a dry laugh.

And seeing that Toru didn't seem to care much about her behavior, she became even more annoyed.

"I have a question, Eriri. My current body is female, but my inner soul is male, and I still like girls, so from a physical level I am a lesbian, and from a spiritual level I am a straight man... Do you think I will have an advantage as a councillor?"

"Forget about it in Japan. Go back to England or the United States and try."

Ms. Eriri refuted Toru's fantasy very unhappily, and then added "You can't get too close to people of the same sex in a physical sense" to the first rule.

Although this will inevitably reduce the siblings' social circle, it is indeed the safest approach at present.

"Well, but this also raises a question."

Ming Hai was a little troubled to come up with new suggestions. Anyway, this would help the two of them to fill in the gaps that might be missed in the rules.

"If I run into your 'old lover' Eriri at school, is it best to stay away from him?"

Although she knew that the "old lover" Toru mentioned was not just a literal meaning, the first person she thought of was not Tomoya Aki, who had always been a grudge for her.

"Ah... Are you talking about that guy Kasumigaoka Utaha?"

Instead, she is the "beautiful girl inside Toyosaki Academy" who is never high-profile but is known to everyone, corresponding to the "beautiful girl outside Toyosaki Academy".

That’s right, it was Kasumigaoka Utaha, who shared the title of beautiful girl with her in school and also competed with her in the industry with her outstanding abilities.

"Yes, I remember you mentioned that she was in the same industry as you, Eriri."

"But that's all you know, Toru. Don't get involved in things that have nothing to do with you. If you see that woman, just avoid her or simply give her a perfunctory response."

Eriri passed it over lightly without any concern - of course her family had been involved in her career, but it was basically her parents who were in charge of the related publishing and sales. At the same time, the parents seemed to want to protect the healthy physical and mental growth of another minor in the family, and had never mentioned Eriri's work in front of Toru.

After all, this is not something worth promoting to minors.

"Well - what a pity, I actually have a crush on that senior with outstanding temperament."

Narumi rolled his eyes, and Eriri saw through his intentions immediately.

"Don't use my body to flirt with that woman by saying something like 'Oh hello, senior', or I'll get someone to kick you in the crotch with my boot."

"Oh, oh, don't get excited, don't get excited, I haven't thought about it that way."

Well, as expected of twins who understand each other so well, Eriri actually followed his eccentric thoughts and pointed them out.

But what she didn't know was that Ming Hai actually had a very vicious thought in his mind: "It wouldn't be bad to let a girl experience the pain of having her balls broken?" But considering that it was his own body after all, he didn't say it out loud.

Next comes the second rule of body swapping: do your best to act as your true self in the eyes of others, and avoid unnecessary suspicion from others in your daily life, which would hinder them from finding the secret to getting their bodies back.

Ming Hai didn't have any objection to this. After all, playing the role of Eriri was extremely easy for him, a brother who had been with her day and night for more than ten years.

Think about a small dog that is irritable and pretentious, and starts barking non-stop when encountering a big problem, but is actually fragile and sensitive, afraid of being hurt but stubborn, and you will have an idea - such as a Chihuahua.

However, this rule is actually a bit difficult for Eriri. Even though she knows what kind of personality her brother has, it is difficult for her to accurately grasp where his "deviant" points are.

My brother is a smart, rational, eloquent and sophistry genius. If he has any shortcomings, it is that he is good at lying and pretending to be confused, has a mysterious yearning for dangerous knowledge and taboos, and has an extremely clear understanding of morality but does not hesitate to violate it.

All in all.

He has excellent grades, is good at all kinds of sports, can always guess the right answers to multiple-choice questions in exams, and has had a smooth life since childhood - how do you play such a guy?

Especially for Eriri, who has always grown up in the shadow of her brother, and whenever she appears with him, his brilliance will shine so brightly that people around her will not notice her existence.

"Maybe if I'm called by the teacher to answer a question or something, I'll be exposed..."

Eriri, who really couldn't catch up in terms of academic ability, sighed like this, and there was a hint of helplessness between the lines - after all, this is the realm of hard power.

"You will definitely be talked about by your classmates then."

So her point is that she is "afraid that her brother will be laughed at by classmates."

"I don't think it's a big deal."

Ming Hai, who was fully aware of this, shook his head and added a few more statements under the rules for the second day.

[ps: Just do your best, no need to overdo it. ]

"I don't care what other people think of me, so Eriri, you don't have to worry about whether you're causing me any trouble. But if you really care about other people's eyes, I'll pay more attention."

He made this promise with extra solemnity, contrary to his usual frivolous attitude that made it hard to tell whether he was sincere or just saying it casually.

"Uh-huh……"

She didn't expect that her brother would care so much about her affairs and be so serious. Eriri nodded hesitantly.

But what neither of them expected was that their current considerations were in vain.

The next morning, the two of them had prepared themselves mentally for a tough school day.

Without any warning, he returned to his original body.

Chapter 10: Kasumigaoka Utaha's personal opinion

Although Eriri and Toru had simulated all possible emergencies and even formulated rules that they would follow during the body swap, unexpected situations occurred.

It’s like when a surprise exam is approaching, you review thoroughly the day before and know all the knowledge points by heart, but the next day everything goes smoothly.

They had already made full preparations for the upcoming life of swapping bodies, and when they woke up the next day they found themselves back in their original bodies.

Toru, who was completely awake, quickly pinched his chest and found that there was indeed nothing there (although it was also quite empty when he was inside Miss Eriri's body), and Eriri also let out a sigh of relief after she opened the quilt and checked again and again that there was no strange external object between her legs.

They had prepared for the worst, that they would never be able to return to their original bodies, but fortunately the current situation was not as bad as they had imagined.

But if there really is some kind of force controlling the rules of the brother and sister's body swapping, then the owner of this force is really evil.

After getting up in the morning, the brother and sister met in the bathroom and looked at each other. After a long awkward silence, Eriri spoke first.

"…The previous experiences must have been dreams."

Although her words were a little unclear as she was cleaning her teeth with a toothbrush, Ming Hai, who was wiping his face with a towel and repeatedly confirming that the person in the mirror belonged to him, still understood what she wanted to express.

"I know, I know. Although escaping is shameful, it is indeed useful."

"You're so annoying."

Eriri raised her foot and hit Toru's calf, but he remained calm and stood there, staring at the mirror and wiping his still wet face.

"Hmph, I was a little troubled before. What should I do if I can't get my body back? Now everything has returned to normal. Fortunately, I didn't spend too much energy on it."

Unlike Narumi who was too lazy to tie her hair into twin ponytails when he occupied Eriri's body, Eriri pushed her brother aside after he finished washing up and began to carefully comb her long hair. In no time, she easily braided it into twin ponytails.

"Tetsu, are you taking good care of my hair? It's all tangled! Are you applying hair oil or something? Are you using a hair mask? Where's the conditioner?"

"How troublesome... Compared to that, I'm more worried about your hair volume, Eriri. It's a bit worrying."

Tooru yawned, feeling that these things sounded even more like an alien language than what the teacher taught in class. Of course, Eriri's response was a merciless eye roll.

"If anyone is going to be bald in the future, you will be the first one to go bald. You are the Mediterranean reserve."

Hey, hey, hey, this statement is so discouraging.

"But if my father's side is British, it seems that I will inherit the traditional British baldness gene..."

How could it be so easy to develop a strong man's hairstyle...!

"Forget it. I won't let you take care of my hair anymore anyway."

After washing up and tying her favorite twin ponytails, Eriri looked at herself in the mirror with great enthusiasm, and then turned around and went back to her room happily with her fair neck tilted back.

"Um……"

Ming Hai, who stayed where he was, continued to slowly tidy up his somewhat messy, fluffy light golden curls. Compared with Eriri, his reaction to the sudden return to normal life was a little too bland.

"It doesn't seem that simple..."

Although he always has a sense of crisis in everything, he still did not act rashly, or completely let down his guard like Eriri and began to enjoy his daily life happily.

Although on the surface he continued his original life as the "school prince", he was also more cautious.

And on an ordinary afternoon, he was entrusted by his teacher to run errands and deliver materials to the senior grade teaching building, when he met an unexpected but somewhat familiar stranger in the corridor.

The girl had waist-length black hair. Even if we put aside her beautiful appearance with a hint of maturity, her dignified and restrained manners and her graceful and elegant gestures all showed her outstanding temperament.

The person in front of me is Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was compared with her younger sister Sawamura Eriri at Toyonosaki Academy and was finally voted as the "Toyonosaki Beautiful Girl" by other students.

Ming Hai had heard of the person in front of him before, after all, she was his sister's old rival. But as a beautiful girl, Kasumigaoka was not as outgoing as Eriri, and was often in a state of being elusive. In addition, the two were in different grades - so strictly speaking, at least in Ming Hai's memory, he had never really seen this third-year senior in front of him.

But he had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with Kasumigaoka Utaha.

This sense of familiarity does not come from existing memories in the simulation, but from the distant "reality".

"Ah, isn't this the prince of the academy?"

The girl's tone sounded like an unintentional teasing, but also like an intentional compliment.

"Good afternoon, Kasumigaoka-senpai. You are still so beautiful today that it is hard to look away."

The curly-haired boy smiled, and expressed his praise in an exceptionally fluent and skilled tone, as if he had rehearsed or practiced this countless times.

"Sawamura-kun is very good at talking. Other girls are often dazzled by you, right?"

Of course, this common trick can only be regarded as the most insignificant "ordinary attack" for Kasumigaoka Utaha.

She raised her chin with interest, played with the ends of her hair with her fingers, and said something that was not very friendly in a friendly tone.

"But it's more convincing if your words and actions are consistent. The last time we met, you glanced at me coldly and walked away without even saying hello."

"...?"

"I thought that what happened between me and Sawamura-san would not affect the communication between you and me, even though we are not that familiar with each other... but it seems that you are a very competent and good brother."

As expected of Utaha Kasumigaoka, even her teasing remarks sound like compliments at first glance.

Now it was Ming Hai's turn to be confused. He was stunned for a few seconds before gradually understanding the reason.

"That Eriri girl... must have run into Kasumigaoka during the body swap and given her a cold shoulder."

There's nothing I can do. After all, that guy is a straightforward person who won't hide his emotions.

Although it is still unclear what kind of relationship there is between her and Kasumigaoka Utaha that causes the two of them to dislike each other, it is unnecessary to narrow the path because of this.

Chapter 11: Burning Incense Again

"Hmm - now, how about you treat me as a sincere person who believed in rumors because I was worried about my sister, but then thought about it and decided not to judge a person so arbitrarily, so I decided to actually get in touch with him myself?"

The young man showed an impeccably handsome smile and politely extended his right hand to Kasumigaoka.

"Ah, unlike your rude and reckless sister, your brother is eloquent and very good at dealing with people."

As if she had not expected the curly-haired boy to resolve the awkward situation in this way, Shiyu expressed her surprise by slightly raising her eyebrows. Her expression soon calmed down, and whether out of courtesy or other reasons, she extended her hand to shake hands with Minghai.

"Of course, it doesn't feel very sincere."

She used the more interesting terms "sister" and "brother-kun" to distinguish the two siblings of the Sawamura family, but if Eriri was present and heard such intimate terms, she would probably be so angry that her teeth would itch.

"Then take it as a compliment from the senior. Thank you very much."

Ming Hai didn't care about this at all. It was rather that being good at lying and exaggerating was something that was ingrained in his bones. Without these skills, he might not even be able to socialize normally.

"It might be hard for you, brother, to take care of a sister like that."

In general, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not show hostility towards Toru just because Toru and Eriri are twin siblings - the maturity and elegance of the older girl was fully demonstrated at this moment.

"It would be bad if my sister found out that my dear brother was chatting with me. It's nice to meet you, Toru-kun."
