Horikita Suzune nodded.
"It seems that you, Yukinoshita, know a lot about Advanced Training High School."
Xue Miao's eyes did not leave the chessboard, thinking about how to entangle the opponent, and said:
"That's all I know."
Horikita Suzune had never thought of disrupting the other person's train of thought by flirting with him, so she was not surprised by Xue Miao's reaction of looking at the chessboard and talking to her.
Seeing the snow cat with a similar personality to her, she just couldn't help but want to say to it some words that had been accumulating in her heart, that's all.
"What looks like heaven at first glance is certainly heaven."
Horikita Suzune said expressionlessly:
"It's just a paradise for the strong and a hell for the weak."
"Everything we use in life there is based on points, and the points are awarded by the school based on your performance. Of course, no matter how well you perform, you still need to rely on the group. If the group performs poorly, no matter how good you are individually, it will be useless."
With just two simple sentences, Horikita Suzune appeared before Xue Miao like the real life of High-Level Development High School.
And Xue Miao could also outline the life conditions of High School of Advanced Development based on just two sentences from the other party -
For the sake of their own interests, there are all kinds of intrigues and conspiracies. Because collective and personal interests are related, every ambitious student will strive to gain leadership in the collective to ensure their own rights and interests.
In just a few seconds, Xue Miao could think of various classic cases. Being a student is theoretically the purest time in one's life, but in the Highly Developed High School, it has become a so-called elite society. How ironic!
Is this the truth about the so-called most famous school in District 11?
In terms of effectiveness, it is indeed countless times better than the education methods of traditional schools. After all, only by performing well can you live a good life, eat well, and dress well.
Driven by basic human needs and the psychology of class comparison, human beings can indeed burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm and fighting spirit, which is incomparable to the inefficient school time in traditional schools that is almost a waste of time and youth.
But what is the difference between a school like this and the cruel society?
It may be that the personal qualities are indeed far superior to those of ordinary universities, but the spiritual cultivation must be flawed. Such schools may be able to produce elites, but it is difficult for them to produce so-called masters.
Although she didn't know what kind of experience the other party had at Advanced Development High School, Xue Miao put herself in his shoes and could guess a little bit. She finally shifted her gaze from the chessboard to the other party's face, and she looked at him and said:
"Campus life is really boring and hard."
"That's not—"
Horikita Suzune didn't want to tell others about the difficulties she encountered in life. She just wanted to talk to Yukinoshita Yukino, who had a similar personality to her. She wanted to see how different this person with a similar personality was from other people and what different situations she faced.
“As long as it helps you become better, then that’s meaningful.”
"Just like today's Hundred Schools Exchange Tournament, for students from ordinary colleges like you, it's probably just a game or a warm-up. But for a school like High School, where elites gather, it's an extremely brutal test of opportunity. Just like our match, it will also be one of the evaluation criteria for my personal and class performance."
"For myself and my class, I can't lose—"
What a cruel competition system. Horikita Suzune's tone was very calm, without any emotional fluctuations, but Xue Miao could feel the pressure and determination that the other party was under.
By tying the interests of the individual and the collective together, we can indeed use the collective to stimulate individual initiative.
However, there may also be situations where a group harms an individual. For example, if Horikita Suzune loses this competition, she may be hated by other students in her class, especially those who are usually outstanding members of the group.
Xue Miao had felt this a long time ago. It was like this when she was in elementary school. Because she was too outstanding, she became the object of jealousy of others. Once she made a mistake, it would be magnified countless times by those who were always watching her. They would stand on the high ground of justice and morality and constantly criticize her. It was really a disgusting memory!
It is also because of this experience that Xue Miao has these middle school ideas of becoming a 'partner of justice', 'it's not me who is wrong, it's the world', 'this world is neither right nor gentle', and 'I want to change this world and make it right and beautiful'.
Looking at Horikita Suzune who was hiding her inner feelings with a cold expression, Xue Miao seemed to see another self, protecting herself with the same coldness, excluding both malice and kindness.
This is probably the impression I get from others, right?!
Understand that your words alone cannot change the other person's thinking. Moreover, does that mean that other people's thinking is wrong? If you have the idea of arbitrarily changing other people's values, it is excessive arrogance.
People will come up with different values in different environments. Perhaps if I had not chosen to go to Fuyuki High School but to High School for Development, I would have become like him.
Since it is impossible and unnecessary to change the other party's ideas, what Xue Miao can do is to defeat the other party with his own strength, and use this confrontation method to tell the other party his own beliefs - relying on others, having others' expectations, and relying on others' ideas is not shameful, it can make us stronger.
"Similarly, I can't lose this game—"
As the pace of chess becomes faster, Xue Miao still believes that he is no worse than his opponent, or in other words, his desire to win is much stronger than his opponent.
The other party's pursuit of victory is just because of themselves, they want to become better, but in this game, Xue Miao is not only driven by the desire to win, but also by the desire to respond to the first person who came to watch his game and prove that he is no worse than anyone else in front of him.
"The situation is beginning to reverse—"
Although the situation was still in a mess, because of Xue Miao's previous elementary school tactics, the chessboard was divided into several small battlefields, but Xue Miao, under the buff of the big dragon, still saw the situation turning in his favor.
After saying that, he slammed another white piece hard on the chessboard, venting his inner desire to win as well as his opponent.
"I see--"
After hearing Xue Miao's words, Horikita Lingyin, who was sweating profusely due to various pressures, finally realized that something was wrong with the situation. Although the situation on the chessboard was still a mess, a closer look revealed that her advantage was still gone, or in other words, the opponent now had more pieces than her.
Horikita Suzune pinched a black dot tightly, and suddenly a feeling of unwillingness emerged in her heart. It was not that she had never experienced the taste of failure, but facing Xue Miao, a person with a similar personality to her but different experiences, or a peer who was about to take a different path from her, she really didn't want to lose!
It seems that if I lose this game, I will not only lose this game of Go, but also my own beliefs and efforts!
I have worked so hard and finally got to this point, how can I lose?
but--
"Huh, huh-"
Because of the excited thoughts in her mind, Horikita Suzune, who was already exhausted due to psychological pressure and other factors, now had her heart beating faster and faster. She felt that her breathing could hardly keep up, and a feeling of suffocation filled her brain. Even the hand holding the chess piece was fighting frantically out of control.
It seemed like he would faint at any moment, even in the next second.
Xue Miao, who was sitting in front of the other person, naturally saw the other person's condition very clearly. He had also felt like he was about to suffocate and faint before, but after meeting Mo Yi and drinking his water, he regained his spirits.
However, knowing her opponent's temperament well, she naturally would not persuade him to give up the game. Also, because they had already taken a break in the middle of the game, they had no chance to pause the game again. The game would not end until the winner was decided.
The more the opponent acts like this, the more serious Xue Miao will be. Only by defeating the opponent seriously can he convey his own beliefs to the opponent's heart and let the other party feel the same as what he thinks in his heart - it is not only one person who can become stronger, don't go on the road alone!
"Hurry up and start thinking!"
The chess piece in front of her seemed to be becoming confused. Looking at the countdown clock, she had little time left to think. In the end, she could only move the chess piece to the best position she could think of at that moment.
"Eating——"
Because she used too much force, the black piece under Horikita Suzune's fingers made a crisp sound on the chessboard, just like the persistence burning in her heart at this moment.
"Yukinoshita, do you try to have a back that you must catch up with?"
"No matter what means, even if I am covered in wounds, I must catch up with the person—"
Horikita Suzune took a deep breath to calm her dizzy brain, then she let go of the hand that was pressing on the chess piece, looked at Yukinoshita Yukino, and asked:
"What about you, Yukinoshita?"
"Why did you work so hard to get to this point?"
"Do I have to catch up with the figure behind me?"
Xue Miao's eyes showed a hint of nostalgia, and the image of her sister appeared in her mind.
In my memory, the other person is someone who can do everything to the best of his ability, and can also chat and laugh with all kinds of people. No matter whether they are his strict parents or strangers, he can always talk to them in the most appropriate way.
At first, Xue Miao didn't understand why she was excluded by others, so she naturally looked for answers from the people around her, and the eldest daughter of the Yukinoshita family naturally became the first person Xue Miao looked to for reference.
Moreover, the other party is indeed like that. The sister who is better than herself is not only not excluded by others like herself, but can even become the central figure in the group and is loved and supported by everyone!
So, I began my journey of imitating and catching up with the other person!
However, as time went by, she discovered that her sister was not as perfect as she had imagined. Beneath that perfect mask, there was something that no one could understand, or perhaps it was the thing that she hated the most in the beginning.
So, she changed from imitating and catching up with her sister to surpassing her sister in her own way. It seems that only by doing this can she realize what she wants in her heart and make the world more gentle and beautiful!
However, is this possible?
Or is there really a necessary connection?
I know clearly that the real world and society are so cruel and incorrect, and only by being as versatile as my sister can I deal with all problems.
However, I am like a child, stubbornly rejecting the world and everything outside. I stubbornly and lonely change the imaginary world in my own way as a matter of course.
The ministry that helps those in need was born out of this idea.
It’s not that she doesn’t understand, it’s that she doesn’t want to understand——
Until now, when she met Mo Yi, that bastard, he used all kinds of ways that made her laugh and cry to make her understand the facts that she should have known long ago, and made her recognize herself again, realize the relationship between the individual and the world, and what attitude to use to get along with the unkind world.
She has always been alone, but now she has learned to rely on others.
Although she didn't say it, Xue Miao felt that this week had been happier than ever before.
She has always been alone, but now she has more and more friends, including the pink dumpling, the penguin who can be considered a friend, the pretentious loli Illya, the part-time working lady Toosaka Rin, the schoolmate Sakura Matou who always seems a little bit off, the royal housekeeping master, the senior brother Emiya, the serious-looking but surprisingly kind elder Chesh Pa Pa, the pet Sesshoiin Kiara who can do housework, and the newly emerged biggest enemy, Erina Nakiri's sister-in-law.
Also, the one who always makes me hate him so much that I can't sleep, makes me angry so much that I can't eat, makes me produce mental poison milk every night, pretends to be stupid at the critical moment, is indecisive, speaks frivolously, does things inappropriately, but is unexpectedly reliable, Mo Yi.
Chapter 264: The vengeful snow cat is still much cuter today
At this moment, Xue Miao seemed to see a blurry but tall figure behind Horikita Suzune. This was probably the person the other party wanted to chase, right?
No wonder I felt that they were very similar when I saw each other. It turns out that they are not only similar in character and way of dealing with people, but also in their motivations and goals. They both want to catch up with the same figure, but they imitate each other unconsciously and follow the old path of others.
But now I have a new goal, a new goal that will make the sister-con girl heartbroken and angry.
The object hidden in her heart also changed from her perfect and powerful sister to the new friend she met in the Emiya family, and the way of approaching changed from chasing to getting close to and relying on each other to warm each other.
"I too once had someone I had to chase—"
Yukinoshita Yukino stared at Horikita Suzune and replied:
"But I've given up this pointless pursuit!"
"Chasing after and imitating others will never allow you to surpass the figure you long for. In the end, when you are covered in wounds, even you are no longer——"
“To acknowledge and constantly surpass myself is who I am today.”
Mo Yi: “…”
Although Xue Miao and Ju Bei Ling Yin spoke in low voices and were watching from a distance, they had no problem at all in front of Master Mo Yi.
I didn't expect that Xue Miao, who is always full of venomous words and negative energy, would come out with such incomprehensible but passionate middle school remarks. Converted into the combat power of the Naruto world, Xue Miao's current level of mouth persuasion is probably at the level of elite jonin like Hatake Wuwukai, that is, the level where what he says makes sense and he is very convinced, but others hesitate and linger on the edge of being persuaded for a few seconds, and then it is useless.
You can refer to the verbal battle between Hatake Go Go Kai and Obito. Kakashi, you speak very nicely, but I don’t listen. Why?
The goddess is dead, there is no point in saying anything!
I, Obito, will beat you to death today, create a new world where no one will get hurt, and then become Kami of the new world!
"Perhaps, I can guide Second Miss Xue Miao to improve her verbal skills."
Mo Yi laughed and complained, if she worked harder, the Second Miss would be able to learn the Prince's tricks -
When facing the aggressive attack of the Magician's Association and the Heroic Spirits, all they need to do is get rid of the second lady of the Yukinoshita family and climb up the city wall of Fuyuki City. With a song of "Majestic" and some vulgar words, they can repel the enemy from a thousand miles away.
The more Mo Yi thought about it, the more he got carried away. In the end, he was considering whether the second lady should play the role of Zhuge Village Man who said "Hahaha" or Wang Situ who said "Isn't it beautiful?", which one would be more suitable.
"Hahaha--"
Thinking of that weird scene, Mo Yi couldn't help it anymore. In order not to disturb Xue Miao's new friends, he finally covered his mouth with his hands to prevent himself from laughing so loudly.
"As for why I would go to such a place——"
When he said this, Xue Miao happened to hear Mo Yi's laughter, so he turned over and glanced at him fiercely.
Unexpectedly, when Mo Yi saw Xue Miao's fierce look, the smile he had been suppressing deepened, which made the people around him feel strange. Others were having such a passionate duel, but you were laughing so happily. Aren't we watching the same game?
"Humph--"
Xue Miao saw Mo Yi almost choking with laughter. She was already familiar with his personality, and guessed that he didn't know how to use her as the heroine and was thinking of some meaningless things.
Unfortunately, I can't free my hands now, so I can't step on the other person's shoes like usual and then warn him with a roll of my eyes, although this is of no use.
Mo Yi's laughter and the scene where Xue Miao turned her head to look over all fell on Ju Bei Ling Yin. She naturally saw something from Xue Miao's helpless yet happy look.
Xue Miao, secretly resentful, decided to ignore Mo Yi and turned around to look at Horikita Lingyin. At the same time, she also discovered that the other party had seen the interaction between her and Mo Yi.
After a moment, he smiled helplessly and said:
"As you can see, I didn't want him to see me lose, so I had to keep struggling, even if the win was ugly."
“That’s why we can’t lose.”
"why?"
Horikita Suzune looked at Yukinoshita Yukina and couldn't help but feel confused. It was obvious that everyone was trying to prove to the important people in their hearts that they were the best!
But there was only happiness in the other person's eyes, which was completely different from herself who was always alone. Even though she had never seen her own eyes with her own eyes, Horikita Suzune could sense this. There was definitely no such happiness in her eyes as in the other person's.
The more she thought about it, the more confused Horikita Suzune became, and even her thinking in playing chess was affected.
