Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

After a few silent and quiet seconds, she let go of her hair, allowing it to fall over her shoulders on both sides. With her left hand, she removed the light green hair tie from her mouth and naturally tucked it into the pocket of her white coat, her tone calm and casual.

"You're here? Want some coffee?"

"Then I'll have a cup."

Yexing sat down opposite Riyo Futaba, watching as she took out two beakers, poured the fragrant black coffee into one of them, stirred it gently with a stirring rod, and handed it to him.

Silence filled the air.

"You… saw it?"

"Saw what?"

"Don't play dumb."

"That's right, I saw it, I saw it clearly."

Upon hearing this, Riyo Futaba's eyes flickered, and after a moment of silence, she spoke softly.

"Do you… do you think it looks good?"

"Well… how should I put it?"

Yexing said noncommittally, his brain beginning to work at full speed.

What does she mean?

Is the battle of wits between geniuses starting now?

If I answer that it looks good, then Riyo Futaba will ask:

"Are you saying my usual hairstyle doesn't look good then?"

If I answer that it doesn't look good, Riyo Futaba will likely ask:

"Are you saying I can't pull off a high ponytail hairstyle?"

After carefully considering it, Yexing suddenly understood.

Why am I worrying about this?

Riyo Futaba isn't some xxn, why would she deliberately try to find fault?

Just answer according to my heart, wouldn't that be the end of it?

"I think both of your hairstyles, paired with your outstanding temperament and cute face, look very good."

Hearing these very direct words, Riyo Futaba's hand trembled slightly, almost causing her to accidentally drop the beaker onto the table.

Her eyes under her glasses narrowed slightly, and she stared intently at Yexing, slowly opening her mouth to say.

"Could it be that you… have feelings for me…?"

"Futaba-san, you're a bit too confident."

"Then it's nothing."

Riyo Futaba still maintained a composed appearance, and from beginning to end, her expression didn't change in the slightest.

Only…

Yexing watched Riyo Futaba's constant stirring, and with an expression that was hard to suppress but still managed to, he slowly said.

"Futaba-san, what are you stirring? That's an empty cup."

Riyo Futaba looked down, and her fair cheeks rapidly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"I… I know, this is a kind of ritual that can make coffee taste better… It's, it's quantum mechanics, yes, that's right, it's the latest research theory of quantum mechanics, the principle is very complicated, so I won't explain it to you."

"I see, I understand, Master Futaba."

Riyo Futaba glared at Yexing resentfully, barely calming down her emotions, and poured herself a cup of coffee as well.

The activity room became quiet again.

Seeing that Yexing was just holding his coffee, taking small sips, and still browsing his phone, Riyo Futaba couldn't help but speak, breaking the silence.

"There will be spring exams next Wednesday, did you know?"

Yexing nodded nonchalantly.

"I know, what's wrong?"

"Since you know, why not take advantage of your free time to study hard?"

After saying this, Riyo Futaba added in a way that seemed like she was trying to hide something.

"Of course, I'm not concerned about you, it's just that if you, as the club president, fail the exam, the school might revoke the activity room's usage rights, or even disband the club. I'm quite comfortable here."

"Fail?"

Yexing had an expression that looked like he wanted to laugh.

"Futaba-san, your worry seems a bit unnecessary."

Riyo Futaba frowned slightly, vaguely realizing that things didn't seem as simple as she had imagined.

"Looking at you like this, could it be that you're very confident in your grades?"

"Is there even a need to say it?"

Yexing shrugged his shoulders and yawned.

"I'm the top scorer in this year's joint entrance exam for the entire Sakura Prefecture."

"Oh, the top scorer…"

Riyo Futaba nodded subconsciously, and after a few seconds, she belatedly realized and her pupils widened in shock.

"The top scorer? Joint entrance exam? The top scorer in all of Sakura Prefecture! ?"

"Eh, you didn't know? Oh right, it seems like I haven't told you guys."

Seeing Yexing's very calm appearance, Riyo Futaba incredulously confirmed again.

"You? You achieved the top score in the joint entrance exam for the entire Sakura Prefecture?"

Yexing raised his hand and cupped his fist in a salute, with a somewhat embarrassed expression, but there was no sense of self-deprecation in his tone at all.

"That's right, it is I."

Riyo Futaba took a deep breath, her expression complicated.

"Then, why did you come to Soubu High, instead of going to Private Shuchiin Academy or Advanced Nurturing High School?"

"Is there even a need to ask?"

Yexing's expression and tone made Riyo Futaba herself begin to suspect whether she had just said something outrageous.

Think carefully.

Isn't this a very normal question?

Why wouldn't the top scorer in Sakura Prefecture go to Private Shuchiin Academy, which is known as the cradle of future talents in Sakura Prefecture, or Advanced Nurturing High School, which is known as a stepping stone for social mobility, where anyone can realize their dreams as long as they have enough ability?

Although Soubu High is also okay.

But after all, it's not Shuchiin or Advanced Nurturing.

"Think about it."

Yexing very seriously analyzed for Riyo Futaba.

"With my score as the top scorer in the Sakura Prefecture joint entrance exam, although I would be considered a dragon among men at Advanced Nurturing or Shuchiin, there are still many students in the history of these two schools who have achieved the top score in the joint entrance exam, right?"

"That's true."

Riyo Futaba nodded slightly, expressing her agreement.

Rather than saying that there have been many students who have achieved the top score in the prefectural joint entrance exam in the history of Advanced Nurturing and Shuchiin.

It's better to say.

Geniuses who can obtain the top score in the prefectural joint entrance exam will only consider these two schools as their options.

Compared with these two schools, other high schools are completely crushed in terms of campus environment, teaching staff, as well as connections and future development.

In the entire history of Sakura Prefecture, among the students who have achieved the top score in the joint entrance exam, I'm afraid only Yexing would choose a third option other than Shuchiin and Advanced Nurturing, right?

"So."

Yexing shrugged his shoulders, with a matter-of-course appearance.

"With my grades, coming to Soubu High means I'm a top dog in the eyes of the school, and as long as it's not a particularly outrageous request, the school will give me preferential treatment."

Without waiting for Riyo Futaba to reply, he added.

"The so-called special preferential treatment includes this activity room."

Hearing these words, Riyo Futaba only had one thought.

Aren't you being a bit too honest?

It's okay to just think about this kind of thing in your heart, but you're actually saying it so openly?

Under the table, under the table.

It's called under the table because everyone knows it, but it can't be seen in the light.

But…

Riyo Futaba tried to think from a different perspective.

If I were the school authorities of Soubu High, what would my reaction be if I learned that this year's top scorer in the Sakura Prefecture joint entrance exam chose to enroll in Soubu High?

The humble dwelling shines.

Glorify the ancestors.

Beat Shuchiin with fists, kick Advanced Nurturing with feet!

When will you, Soubu High, be number one in Sakura Prefecture?

Today!

"However…"

Riyo Futaba sized up Yexing, puzzled.

"I never see you studying, can you still maintain such grades?"

"Hmph, a piece of cake."

"Don't tell me you're just bragging?"

"That's because you don't understand, Futaba-san."

A sense of nostalgia suddenly appeared in Yexing's eyes, and he slowly opened his mouth to say.

"Can you imagine a school life where you have classes at 6:30 in the morning, get out of class at 11:00 at night, and only have a 20-minute lunch break, with no breaks between classes?"

"How could there be such a thing?"

Riyo Futaba shook her head like a rattle drum.

"Let alone a school, that's already completely beyond the physiological limits of humans, there's no way there's such a place."

"You're too naive, Riyo Futaba."

Yexing shook his head, looked at the scenery outside the window, and slowly said.

"It was in such an environment that I competed with tens of millions of peers, hacked out a bloody path on a single-plank bridge, and became a warrior who emerged victorious after hundreds and thousands of battles!"

Riyo Futaba "…"

After a few seconds, she gave her most accurate retort in her life.

"Listening to your description, that doesn't sound like a warrior."

"More like a devil who crawled out of the eighteenth level of hell, right?"

Hearing this, Yexing nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, it's about that level of difficulty."

Riyo Futaba helplessly supported her forehead and sighed, naturally believing in her heart that Yexing's words just now were the result of a fit of chuunibyou.

How could there be such a school where you only sleep seven hours a day and have hardly any rest time?
