You tell me, this is called daily youth?

Yuki commented casually, stood up, took out the ointment, and moved a stool to the side.

"Come sit over here, I'll apply medicine for you."

"No need, this bruise will heal in two days."

"We have rested for five days. The second instance may start at any time. Resting for two days is too luxurious."

Mai hesitated for a moment, and seeing Yuki's serious expression, she thought about it and nodded.

"Then turn your head away."

Yuki turned his head and heard a rustling sound. Just by listening to the sound, he had a clear picture:

The slender fingers lifted the skirt, took off the safety pants, and sat on the sofa to slowly take off the black pantyhose, just like the black tide receded, revealing the white and slender thighs...

Hiss, be serious, serious.

Yuki kept a poker face, and soon a long leg was placed on his knees. Just as he was about to turn his head, his face was supported by a palm.

"Apply your medicine and don't look around."

The voice was firm, yet trembling a little.

You little brat, are you testing me?

Of course Yuki knew that his senior could apply the medicine herself, but he had behaved well over the past few days, and the relationship between the two sides had become much closer, so he no longer cared about this kind of physical contact.

Holding the perfectly proportioned little feet in his hands, he did not have any superficial desires like eating ice cream, and his mind was always clear.

Putting aside the relationships between teammates in the reincarnation game, the most important thing between people is mutual respect. If it was simply to satisfy his desires, he would have become a harvester of elementary school students long ago.

Except for a very small number of female characters with special identities in the anime, who can escape the calculations of an adult in elementary school?

"Don't worry, I know what to do and what not to do."

Yuki nodded slightly, then unscrewed the ointment next to him and slowly applied it to the base of his white, crystal-clear toes. His expression did not change at all, and he was serious as if he was carving a piece of art.

hiss.

Mai moved her ankle slightly and began to feel a slight pain, followed by a cool feeling. She squinted her eyes comfortably, and her tense muscles relaxed. She then secretly glanced at the man's profile.

He is very serious and meticulous, completely different from his usual playful appearance, making him hard to figure out.

'According to common sense, shouldn't he have a pig-like face?'

Mai raised an eyebrow, very aware of her own charm, a little confused as to what this man was thinking, but after a little thought, she felt a surge of recognition and gratitude.

If Yuki gets beastly, she really doesn't know what to do.

Submit? It doesn't seem to be that serious. Resist? I don't know why I can't bear to do it.

As for why Yuuki was so serious about this, Mai pondered over it and finally came up with a vague answer:

Maybe it's out of respect for me?

As I relaxed, the cool feeling of my fingers rubbing across my feet became clear, and then my cheeks began to heat up, and I couldn't help but regret it quietly.

Am I testing him, or is he testing me? No, if this goes on, he will tease me to death.

The girl gritted her teeth and couldn't help but break the silence: "Where did you get this ointment? Why is it so effective?"

You live in Bengbu, right? I started to make small talk.

Yuki smiled inwardly and answered seriously, "I made it myself. I have to rub it on for fifteen minutes so that the medicine can fully penetrate."

fifteen minutes?

Mai looked up at the wall clock and quietly moved her butt.

"Uh, I forgot you were a medical student."

"To be precise, it was the Forensic Science Department, and I taught myself all the undergraduate content."

"Does the forensic doctor know how to make ointments?"

"I taught myself. After all, I'm in need. I also know acupuncture and massage. I'll try them on you next time."

Mai then noticed that the boy had many scars on his back, and remembered what Yuki had told her about shooting himself in the dungeon. She probably realized that he had been very ruthless before he joined the game.

Does he really live in the same world as me?

The question lingered in his mind, his lips moved slightly, but he still didn't ask it.

He is such an unpredictable weirdo, but how should I put it, he gives people a sense of security.

She subconsciously stretched out her fingers and touched the scar on the boy's back. This time, Yuki did not make any strange noises. Instead, he tightened his muscles, and his hands became more gentle as he rubbed the ointment.

In the room, only the ticking sound of the wall clock remained. Countless thoughts flashed through the two people's minds, and the atmosphere gradually heated up like a hot summer.

After a while, the foot on Yuki's thigh twitched slightly, as if it was about to escape control, but this time, Yuki held the ankle firmly.

"You." Mai pursed her lips lightly and did not continue to exert force. Only a smile appeared on the boy's face.

He is not frivolous, but rather as serious and confident as he is in the copy. He is sharp and decisive.

Yuki entered the game state and calculated the success rate based on the atmosphere.

Click.

The door lock clicked, causing the two people who were concentrating to turn around at the same time. They saw Hayasaka Ai standing at the door, pulling a suitcase in her hand, blinking slightly confusedly.

From her perspective, the posture of the two was not only ambiguous, but could be said to have violated the student code of conduct.

The three of them looked at each other in bewilderment. After a few seconds, Hayasaka Ai, who always appeared to be a cold and cool player, was the first to blush and immediately walked out of the door.

"excuse me!"

Chapter 12: The Opportunity Has Come (Part 1)

On a hot summer day, the night breeze blew up the white gauze curtains. A few slices of leftover watermelon were placed on the plate, emitting a faint sweetness.

It’s almost there, the atmosphere is definitely there.

Yuki sat upright on the chair, touching his cheek with his fingers. A few minutes ago, he keenly felt that the atmosphere was right and the success rate of his confession was as high as 80%.

What else is there to say? Just go for it. As for failure? I'm not some young boy. Why should I worry about it?

With two lives combined, he is almost forty years old. The word "indecisive" does not exist in Yuki's dictionary. He is more like a copy guide and likes to hold the initiative in his own hands.

It was a mistake. I should have locked the door, but this stupid maid probably didn't know that.

Yuki turned his head and looked at Hayasaka Ai with a sad look, causing the latter to look up at the ceiling instantly and pretend that she saw nothing.

Although Hayasaka Ai can pretend to be a Shibuya hot girl, she is actually more innocent than Sakurajima Mai, and is often humiliated by Shinomiya Kaguya.

"Haysaka, Yuki was just helping me apply the medicine just now." Sakurajima Mai explained from the side and glared at someone fiercely.

"Yeah, that's right, it's just applying medicine, it's a common thing when practicing martial arts."

Do you think I'm blind? The atmosphere was so ambiguous when applying the medicine, and you deliberately explained it. Doesn't it make it even more impossible for me to pretend nothing happened?

Hayasaka Ai really wanted to teach these two how to avoid embarrassment, so she immediately activated her self-defense mechanism, took a deep breath, took out a headdress from her pocket and put it on her hair.

A magical scene happened. The innocent girl, who had a slightly blushing expression just now, suddenly became expressionless and returned to her poker face.

Professional, calm, and full of reason, as if even if he saw two people doing something shameful, he would pretend nothing happened, bow gently, and close the door.

"Yuuki, please put your clothes on before you explain."

"Okay okay."

Not to mention Sakurajima Mai, even Yuki didn't react in time. He quickly put on his shirt and buttoned it up while marveling at the seamless switch.

The offensive was reversed in an instant, as if I was wrong.

"Uh, Senior, why don't you go take a shower? I'll go change my clothes too. We should get back to business."

Being seen in person, Sakurajima Mai was of course embarrassed and annoyed, but she knew she had to back down and pretend nothing had happened.

"You dare to plot against me secretly. I will settle the score with you when I have the chance."

She also reacted and realized that she had fallen into a "trap". She glared at someone again and quickly went to the bathroom with a change of clothes.

In an instant, the two of them ran away without a trace, and Hayasaka Ai was the only one left in the empty living room. She looked around, put down the teacup, loosened her clasped toes, and covered her face.

Oops, I seem to be the bad guy.

She was not blind and had read many related books. Of course she knew what had happened. This interruption distracted her heavy mind and she had a strange idea.

But I seem to be quite happy to be the bad guy?

There was a little yearning and a little jealousy, but when I thought about the clues I had found, I put on a cold mask again.

This isn't something I should be touching, at least not now.

......

The night wind blew in, blowing away the last breath of youth. When Yuki came out after changing his clothes, he had already returned to his serious state of strategy without Hayasaka Ai's reminder.

Hayasaka Ai cast a grateful look and said calmly, "I have also got some results from my investigation."

Yuki sat back in his chair and asked, "Let me guess, have you confirmed the identity of someone that night?"

"You figured it out?!" Hayasaka Ai sat up straight instantly, gritted her teeth, and said as if she had made up her mind:

"Yes, after taking care of my family affairs, I returned to Shuchiin yesterday and found that the student council president had taken two days off and happened to go to Kanagawa for an exchange. His back was similar to the one I saw that night."

Student Council President?!

Yuki was stunned at first, then realized that this was not referring to Shirogane Miyuki, but the squinting boyfriend.

"What a coincidence! If I'm not mistaken, Shuchiin also belongs to the Shinomiya Group."

"That's right, the chairman of Shuchiin is none other than Miss Kaguya's brother, Shinomiya Koukou." Hayasaka Ai nodded expressionlessly. At this point, there was nothing to hide about each other's identities.

The president of the Shinomiya Group suddenly fell seriously ill, and then discovered a player suspected to be from the Huang Guang faction. Anyone could smell the scent of conspiracy, and Hayasaka Ai suddenly realized that she had made the right choice.

According to her wish, if the Shinomiya family is really related to the reincarnation game, and her identity as a player is exposed, it would be strange if she is not exploited to death.

"You are already a tool, and if you are given more value, not only will the freedom you desire be far away, but even Miss Kaguya will be implicated."

Hayasaka Ai showed a self-deprecating smile, she was thinking too simply. If Yuki hadn't stopped her, she would have been exposed now.

"Hayasaka-san, please have some tea."

Just when she was feeling depressed, Sakurajima Mai brought her hot tea without asking any extra questions.

"Thank you, Mai-senpai, aren't you curious?"

"I have also heard about the style of the Shinomiya family. If they are really related to the reincarnation game, your wish will indeed be difficult to realize."

"You know what I want?"

"I don't know, but I know you don't want to be a tool anymore." Mai still didn't say much, just glanced at Yuuki who was holding the back of the chair and thinking hard, "Relax, we can even survive the bloodthirsty red moon safely, we will definitely find a way."

Hayasaka Ai held the tea and somehow relaxed. What Sakurajima Mai said was right, whether in the copy or in reality, the three of them were an independent group.

And his foresight showed its value, as if he had predicted everything in advance.

"Since reality and games are inseparable, your affairs are also within our covenant. We prosper together and suffer together." Yuki raised his head and stated his position seriously.

"Have you ever thought of selling me to the Shinomiya family?"

"There is no benefit in doing this, and as I said before, I don't want to be a tool of others, especially such a behemoth."

When their eyes met, Hayasaka Ai's expression softened a lot. The reason why she was willing to tell the secret was that she couldn't hide it at all, just like Yuki's first sentence had exposed her thoughts just now.

On the other hand, it was because of her understanding that as early as in the copy, she discovered that this man was very independent and was not willing to hand over his life and property to the hands of others.

Regardless of whether the difficulty of the copy is affected, he and Li Dan cannot coexist.

"Thank you, I feel much better now." The girl drank a sip of hot tea and completely relaxed. If you looked closely, you could see a barely detectable mist in her eyes.

I've been weighing the issue over and over again these past few days, but I still can't make up my mind. I just can't discuss it with anyone. Even when I walked in just now, my mind was in a mess.

As for what Yuki's stance is and whether he can do it, it doesn't matter. What matters is that now he doesn't have to carry it alone.

"It seems Hayasaka-san is not as strong as she appears."

Mai Sakurajima looked over secretly and also felt that she was getting closer to her. It was only fair for everyone to expose their weaknesses. As for what to do, she let him worry about it.

In fact, Yuki was not worried at all. Although it is said that those who do not plan for the future will have immediate worries, they also have to consider the progress of history. The three of them had just passed the novice copy and had no right to fantasize about the future.

If you have this free time, you might as well study how to use the accumulated reinforcement points.

"Try your best to hide your identity, work hard to become stronger, and then pretend nothing happened."
