Uneasy daily life

There were two people when they went out, but three people came back.

I arranged for Fengbin and Hana to take a hot bath, and also prepared a set of my clothes for them. Judging from their figures, they were quite similar to me, so it shouldn't be a problem for them to wear it...

Yukino Yukinoshita busied herself for a while, then heard her lazy older sister, who was watching her from the sofa, talking.

"Oh dear, what a pity. I was hoping to tease Yukino-chan a bit more with that rascal, but I ended up running into what happened with Hana-chan."

Yukino sighed, "What a pity, it's quite a sight to see Yukino-chan with her hair all puffed up."

Are you collecting some kind of "sister emoji pack"?

Yukino Yukinoshita gave her a disdainful look, hesitated slightly, and then said, "I'm planning to go home tomorrow. Would you like to come with me, sister?"

"Well..."

Yukino Yukinoshita said seriously, "Yukino-chan, you can go home without worry. You can use this room and that jerk across the street yourself, don't be shy."

"You're coming back with me."

Snow beneath the snow makes a cold, decisive statement.

"Hai hai~"

Yukinoshita immediately changed her attitude.

Are you playing me for a fool again? When will my sister ever change her twisted personality... Oh well, this is fine too.

Yukino Yukinoshita sighed helplessly and glanced outside: "I hope it won't rain tomorrow."

……

It definitely won't rain tomorrow, because it rained heavily and for a long time today, from day to night, so much so that Toyohama and Hana had to stay overnight at Yukino's house.

My sister and Feng Bin are sleeping in the same room, so nothing should happen, right...?

Yukino Yukinoshita lay on the bed, played with the cat for a while, and then closed her eyes to go to sleep.

I could vaguely hear someone whispering something.

...A gift for me?

Chapter Twelve: A Tumultuous Morning

"Mmm..."

Amidst a lazy murmur, Yukino Yukinoshita slowly opened her eyes, staring blankly at the bedroom ceiling. The things that flashed by in her dream gradually faded away as she woke up, becoming hazy in the blink of an eye. She vaguely remembered... who gave her a gift.

What a jumbled dream.

Scientific research suggests that dreaming indicates poor sleep quality, and I definitely feel that way. My head feels a bit foggy—yes, it must be something like white fungus or my sister affecting my sleep quality.

"call……"

Yukino Yukinoshita easily overcame the urge to lie down a little longer and got up to take a deep breath as usual.

Ok?

My voice doesn't sound normal, and I feel a sense of heaviness all over my body.

Could it be a cold?

Speaking of which, it rained yesterday, and the temperature may have suddenly dropped in the middle of the night.

I touched her forehead but didn't notice anything unusual. The physical test results were too vague after all. I'll check with a thermometer later.

Yukino stepped out of her bedroom, her mind wandering aimlessly.

Speaking of thermometers, Bai Jun probably doesn't have one at home. Feng Bin got caught in the rain yesterday and didn't even have a hairdryer.

His living conditions are probably still as casual as ever. He probably doesn't even have some common medicines at home. A room is probably the same as when he moved in and the same when he left... It makes one a little worried that the white fungus might suddenly become extinct and disappear without a trace.

Yukino Yukinoshita patted her face, went to the bathroom, and looked in surprise at the person who had already arrived and was standing in front of the bathroom mirror.

Long, smooth, jet-black hair; deep, captivating eyes; a slender figure…

"Sakurajima?"

Yukino Yukinoshita blurted out a question in her voice without thinking.

Mai Sakurajima, who was staring wide-eyed at the mirror, turned her head to look at them upon hearing this, a look of helplessness, panic, and confusion appearing on her face.

The strange feeling grew stronger—wait, it's rare to see Sakurajima with such an expression. Why is he panicking?

Yukino Yukinoshita felt that something was not quite right.

Mai Sakurajima cried out, "Under the heavy snow..."

Under heavy snow?

Yukinoshita Yukino: #!

Ha, is that a sarcastic remark from a love rival?!

"Please call me Yukinoshita, and don't add any random adjectives in front of me."

Yukino Yukinoshita said coldly, "Instead of talking about these pointless things, Sakurajima should explain why he's in my house."

As she spoke, Yukino Yukinoshita instinctively tried to cross her arms and enter her confrontational mode, but suddenly felt a soft, outward-pressing sensation on her arms. Her hands, which she tried to close, did not have the usual tight, seamless embrace.

Snowflakes bowed their heads in bewilderment, their pupils dilating in shock.

Strange things have appeared on my body?!

"Something's strange...I'm not at your house..."

Sakurajima Mai stammered a few words, not paying attention to Yukino Yukinoshita's expression. She racked her brains trying to express herself indirectly and clearly, or perhaps try to cover it up—this unusual situation was best left unknown to Yukinoshita. In short, she needed to find that bastard as soon as possible…

Finding excuses, finding excuses, finding excuses...

"I... I came here on a whim, and my sister opened the door for me..."

Yukino Yukinoshita was engrossed in her lightning-fast thoughts and completely oblivious to the other person.

who am I?

Where am i?

What is this?

Calm down. First, pat your face to make sure it's not a dream.

Snapped.

Yukino Yukinoshita patted her face with both hands, trying to calm down.

"Haaah... Why is it so noisy so early in the morning? I finally had a good night's sleep and felt completely relaxed."

With a lazy tone, Toyohama Kazuka stretched and walked out of another bedroom, her eyes, which were very similar to Sakurajima Mai's, looked over, and then she fell into a daze.

Yukino Yukinoshita noticed the other person's expression and had a bold guess.

Could it be...

"watch out!"

Toyohama Kazuka suddenly sprang up, her right hand clenched into a claw, and charged straight at Yukino Yukinoshita. Caught off guard, Yukinoshita Yukinoshita was unable to dodge in time.

Pfft.

The area outside the restroom fell silent for a moment.

Seeing the claws pressing on her chest, Yukino Yukinoshita was bewildered, her lips slightly parted, momentarily speechless.

Seeing herself suddenly do such a... such an inappropriate thing under the heavy snow! Mai Sakurajima was bewildered.

"You're Bai Yinghua? How did you do that?"

Toyohama and Hana looked on with curiosity, their eyes filled with serious study: "Are superpowers really that amazing? The feel and size are exactly the same? Yukino-chan must be very envious of your ability. Would you be interested in taking me on as an apprentice?"

Feng Bin and Hua pinched and touched it, but then their hands were slapped away forcefully. She looked at 'herself' and saw a blush spreading across her face, giving her a particularly complicated look.

"Your shyness is quite convincing," Toyohama Kazuka commented with interest. "As expected of a full member of the Crimson Troupe, your acting is quite on point, capturing the shyness, confusion, and helplessness... Hmm, seeing these expressions on my own face feels rather strange, but it's still a bit lacking compared to a jerk."

"That rascal can fool people with just his voice imitation, making them furious. Miss Bai Yinghua has the superpower of acting, but she's not very good at acting. That's a bit different from the prop master's assessment."

Yukino Yukinoshita had fully understood. She took a deep breath and awkwardly called out to Kazuha Toyohama.

"elder sister!"

Toyohama Kazuka: "?"

Mai Sakurajima: "?!"

They took turns washing their faces and rinsing their mouths to calm down, and then gathered in the living room, each sitting on one side.

"Beneath the snow lies more snow, beneath the snow lies me, I am the elder sister..."

Wearing Mai Sakurajima's skin, Toyohama Kazuka managed a rough summary, looking utterly bewildered: "Is this puberty syndrome?"

"It should be called an extraordinary event. After all, there are many strange things in the world besides puberty syndrome... Now is not the time to discuss the definition." Wearing Yukino Yukinoshita Haruno's skin, Yukino Yukinoshita Yukinoshita felt quite subtle—it was as if her rival in love had suddenly become no threat at all, and even cute and silly.

Hmm, now is not the time to think about that.

Yukino Yukinoshita speculated, "It seems like we've swapped bodies?"

"Well, it doesn't seem like it."

Wearing the skin of Toyohama and Hana, Yukinoshita Haruno scratched her arm and patted her thigh, engaging in self-touching: "If we were to switch bodies, Yukino-chan wouldn't have woken up in her own room, right? You and Hana-chan woke up first, didn't you notice that you were sleeping next to 'yourself'?"

"Who pays attention to those things when they wake up? I only realized something was wrong when I looked in the mirror..."

Sakurajima Mai said awkwardly, "Hey, don't move... don't lift up your pajamas and pinch my stomach!"

"You've managed your figure well, Kazuha-chan." Kazuha Toyohama pinched her flat stomach, which didn't have a spare tire. "Strictly speaking, this should be my body."

Sakurajima Mai slammed her hand on the table angrily, shouting, "What do you mean 'yours'! That's clearly mine! Wait—stop! No picking your toes, no scratching your armpits, no putting your hands in your nose... Aaaaah!!"

Anger, embarrassment, and shame finally reached their breaking point. 'Sakurajima Mai' charged forward like a pig, only to be caught by 'Toyohama Kazuka' with a clever move, falling onto the sofa and being firmly pinned down.

Mai Sakurajima is currently struggling like a salted fish.

“My strength has decreased, about the same as Hana-chan’s.” ’Toyohama Kazuka’ grabbed ’Sakurajima Mai’ and said with a smile, “As expected of someone who trains in dance, your legs are indeed very strong.”

Sakurajima Mai's face was filled with grief and indignation. Why did this happen?!

"In short, rather than swapping bodies, it's more like... our bodies changed? We became someone else's bodies?"

Yukino Yukinoshita ignored the two making a fuss and said thoughtfully, "If it's a body swap, I should be lying in another bedroom, and my sister should be sleeping in my room. Of course, it's also possible that my body was directly swapped. Anyway, it's just a guess... The most important thing right now is to find out the reason and get everything back to normal."

"Huh? Why the rush to go back to the way things were?"

"Toyohama Kazuka" said with a smile, "Don't you think this is interesting, Yukino-chan?"

"Sister, not at all."

Yukinoshita felt deeply awkward, calling Toyohama Kazuka "older sister" in every sense of the word: "What's so interesting about this mess?"

“For example…” Toyohama and Hana joked, “Yukino-chan could go and hang around in front of that jerk and see if he recognizes you, how about that? Isn’t that fun?”

"So what if I recognize them? So what if I don't?"

Yukino Yukinoshita said irritably, "Haku-kun knows more about this than we do. We should talk to him directly and see if there's any way to solve the problem."

"It is a bit strange, but not really strange."

'Toyohama Kazuka' tilted her head and said, "It's quite interesting to see myself making such a serious expression, even though I can't usually see my own face... Hehe~ As expected of Haruno, she's quite cute if you look closely."

For a moment, Yukinoshita Haruno didn't know whether her sister was bragging or teasing her.

"Wait! I have a question!"

Sakurajima Mai suddenly asked, "What's the situation on your side, sister?"

“This…” Yukinoshita Haruno said uncertainly, “If the body has become another person, there might not be a problem on Sakurajima’s side, but other people will suddenly see two Sakurajima Mais. But if it’s a body swap, or Sakurajima has also changed…”

"Yukino-chan debuts as an idol! Her new work will premiere on Chiba TV, broadcast worldwide!"

'Toyohama Kazuka' clapped her hands and said excitedly, 'I'm Yukino-chan's number one fan, her loyal die-hard fan!'

"Ha, don't say such strange things."

'Yukinoshita Haruno' retorted, 'With my sister in this state, think about how you're going to go back to university.'

Sakurajima Mai said discontentedly, "Hey! What do you mean by looking like this? I..."

"You think you look like a college student?" Yukinoshita Haruno retorted. "To be honest, judging from appearance alone, if it weren't for the height, I would look more like a middle school student."
