Uneasy daily life

"Then let's put Bai Jun and the cat in the same room and see how long he can keep up this fuss. The cat needs to be taken care of carefully. If we treat it with indifference and casualness for a long time, the cat's temperament will easily become more wild. We can't always just feed it cat food to save time; we need to supplement its diet with other nutrients..."

Yukino Yukinoshita began to talk at length about the "Cat Sutra".

As Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) listened, she couldn't help but make a subtle comment: "Yukinoshita is very passionate about things she likes, she can talk endlessly about them... huh..."

"This..."

Yukino Yukinoshita recalled the time she was caught red-handed by someone while trying to meow like a cat while petting Knight, and immediately realized: "W-what do you mean?"

"It's nothing, it's quite cute. I'm going to wait for my food outside."

Yukino Yukinoshita (Mai) walked out of the kitchen with a smile on her face and her arms crossed.

I felt like I was being ridiculed.

Damn it, they're all white fungi.

After dinner, Yukino took Knight and King out for a walk. The two cats, one black and one white, seemed to dislike each other. One would try to outrun the other, turning a simple cat walk into a jog.

Phew... Sure enough, the weak stamina is very familiar. Now, the older sister I've become is all mine except for her appearance in other people's eyes.

After running around the apartment a few times, Yukino Yukinoshita (Yukino) was slightly out of breath. She tightened her grip on the leash to slow the two kittens down, and as she walked slowly, she took out her phone and opened her sister's private chat account.

Hmm? My sister changed her nickname... Fengbin is going to be furious when he sees this.

[Yukinoshita: New discoveries have been made regarding puberty syndrome. The key to understanding puberty syndrome lies in finding oneself deep within, discovering something more powerful than simply becoming a partner.]

[Just Hana: Hmm? Yukino-chan has already been found?]

[Under the Snow: Does your older sister envy Toyohama's straightforwardness?]

[Just like flowers: Shouldn't they be called simple-minded and stubborn?]

[Yukinoshita: My older sister is too cunning and stubborn, even less so than Toyohama who's simple-minded and single-minded.]

[Just Hana: Hehe~ Why is Yukino-chan being so assertive tonight?]

[Yukinoshita: Because I've discovered that, compared to my sister, I'm better able to face my own feelings directly. I don't need to joke, pretend to lie, act frivolous, use social skills to hide my true feelings, or even run away from them.]

There was a long silence on the other end before a message appeared.

[It's the lotus flower: I should become you.]

Hmm? That's...

As Yukino Yukino frowned in thought, she suddenly felt a force in her hand, and the black and white cats were digging at the ground in a certain direction, meowing.

Looking up, the white figure was returning from outside carrying takeout. It looked over at the black and white demons roaring and cautiously prepared to go around them.

"Knight, King, chase."

"Wait! Don't chase me! I have soup in my takeout!"

"Don't white fungi feed on humans? They don't need human food."

With a cold smile on her lips, Yukino Yukinoshita (Yukino) walked quickly, leading two cats as she chased after the white figure that was leaping and bounding.

Chapter 48 White Shadow: My Turn

"You spoiled brat from a wealthy family, you take pleasure in injuring people with your wicked pet. I will definitely report you to the Empress Dowager one day, confiscate your wicked pet, and punish you by making you copy the 'Woof Sutra' ten times!"

The stern reprimand from the white figure came from behind the door. It wasn't very intimidating, but the harsh words afterward were quite strong.

"Meow~"

"Meow!"

The black and white duo pounded on the security door, scratching out a series of cracking and sputtering noises that went straight from ear to head.

"Humph."

Yukino Yukinoshita gave a soft hum and pulled the two kittens back with force, returning home victorious.

The despicable demon and its keeper.

Bai Ying returned to the living room with the takeout, untied the plastic bag and looked inside. Luckily, nothing had leaked out.

"Should we get a dog to deal with her?"

A slightly amused voice came from the side; the cool, slightly hoarse tone sounded very familiar.

"A family cannot have two dogs; what dog can compare to me?"

The white figure answered confidently without turning its head.

Today, Kuroko, who had changed into Yukino Yukinoshita's skin, choked for a moment, leaned back on the sofa and shrugged: "Okay, you really are the king of dogs. I underestimated you."

"As compensation, how about giving me some puberty syndrome?"

Bai Ying unpacked the disposable chopsticks, looked up, and said with great envy, "How come you and Bai Yinghua have the ability to change your skin anytime, anywhere? I can only change my nickname at most?"

“Strictly speaking, I didn’t transform,” Blacklight said casually. “What changed wasn’t me, but your perception. As for my actual appearance…”

Bai Ying said knowingly, "I understand. You can only show a certain appearance based on other people's perceptions, but you don't have an appearance that belongs to you alone."

Blacklight: "...Has anyone ever told you that you're asking for a beating?"

Bai Ying said impatiently, "To punish me, inject me with puberty syndrome."

"I think so."

Black Light's expression was strange. While other people's adolescence is filled with melancholy, worries, and inner turmoil, this guy's adolescence is probably more about causing melancholy, worries, and pulling people back into a state of inner turmoil...

Because they are superpowered? Although the puberty syndrome was randomly distributed everywhere, and some teenagers temporarily gained something that resembled a superpower, this was the first time they had met someone with superpowers.

It was truly eye-opening.

For example, those times when they were curious about what the white shadow was, they approached it and created dreams, only to have it turn into strange shapes.

"Tch, so it's not going to work then? Then let's go, I don't provide meals here."

Bai Ying sighed and buried her head in her rice.

"The breeding ground for adolescent syndrome lies in certain confusions and obstacles in one's heart, so not everyone can trigger adolescent syndrome." With keen interest in his observations and words, Hei Guang stepped closer. "In conclusion, you are a positive, cheerful, and optimistic teenager..."

Even Heiguang thought this conclusion was nonsense.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible," the white figure declared emphatically. "I sincerely want to become a hero/stick figure/9528/hero plus/hero pro..."

Black Light laughed and said, "Your sincerity and my sincerity are two different things."

"Then let's go by what I say." Bai Ying pointed with her chopsticks. "You're not even human, what do you know about puberty and puberty syndrome?"

"Look forward to tonight."

The black light disappeared without a sound.

So what if you have superpowers? Today, I'm going to give you puberty syndrome.

"Blacklight, I asked the leader, are you interested in joining the Crimson Troupe?" The white figure shouted twice at the air. "As a superpowered individual, there's no need for an application process. Joining means three months of being treated like a slave, provided with cheap labor; you must respect your seniors, and for six months you can only receive guidance and cannot talk back..."

“I’m not called Blacklight, and I have no interest in joining any Scarlet Troupe.”

The sound drifted into the distance and faded away in the air.

"It's a real shame; a superpowered person who doesn't join the Scarlet Troupe isn't a good artist..."

Bai Ying shook his head and sighed, "Your superpowers are so diverse, yet your achievements are so monotonous. It must be because you haven't found the right art. The Crimson Theatre Troupe teaches without discrimination and has a free learning atmosphere. We welcome all kinds of superpowered individuals to study here. What are you waiting for?"

The air did not respond.

It must be because the troupe leader has a bad reputation that the Scarlet Troupe's competitiveness has declined.

Just as Bai Ying was about to continue persuading him to study, his phone rang.

"Hello? Guild leader, why are you calling all of a sudden?" Bai Ying answered the phone, glancing around but not finding the suddenly refreshed guild leader.

[You mentioned encountering a wild superhuman, what happened?]

After a moment's thought, Bai Ying replied, "It seems that they have some misunderstanding about the troupe leader and currently have no intention of joining the Scarlet Troupe. I will try my best to persuade them."

[It doesn't matter. The troupe may be large, but it doesn't tolerate mediocre people, not even those with superpowers.]

“That’s true. The Crimson Troupe, a force to be reckoned with, isn’t short of manpower.” Bai Ying nodded. “Even if its superpowers are amazing—from what I’ve observed, it not only possesses invisibility, transformation, dream entry, and dream creation, but it also seems to be able to grant similar superpowers to certain groups of people…”

"I'm leaving the poaching to you. All I want is a successful outcome."

Bai Ying said, "The commander was arrogant at first but then became obsequious; it's laughable to think about it."

[After you've finished laughing, remember to get things done.] The leader didn't take it seriously; it wasn't a bad thing to say, so it wasn't just empty talk. [By the way, Bai Yinghua said she was planning to hang out with you. I just asked her to help you recruit some people.]

Bai Ying said knowingly, "I understand. Bai Yinghua lied that she wanted to play with me, and deliberately used you, the leader, to increase her persuasiveness. In the end, she didn't come to see me. The subjective and objective are consistent, and she has achieved her goal of successfully deceiving me. However, I am clever and have seen through everything."

Is it possible that she guessed you thought the same thing, which is why she actually went to your place?

"It is indeed possible..."

After speculating about who was at a higher level, Bai Ying hung up the phone, feeling completely calm.

As long as I don't guess, I won't be fooled.

Who is Bai Yinghua? I don't know her.

The white figure packed up the takeout box and tried to summon a wave of black light, but received no response.

The prospective staff member of the Scarlet Troupe doesn't seem very enthusiastic. Let's work on brainstorming ideas for a light novel instead. If Yoshiteru Zaimokuza can take such a firm step on the path of light novels, then I can do it too! If my first attempt at a light novel flopped, it must have been because I chose a title that was too generic. This time, I'm sure I'll succeed!

After mentally working out a series of ideas in front of the blank screen, Bai Ying lay down on the bed to rest.

People are in their most relaxed state when they are sleeping, which is also the best time to treat adolescent syndrome.

Drawing upon worries and thoughts, they take on different forms, reflecting the dust that accumulates in the corners of the soul.

The ethereal yet real influence gathered around, but as the white figure calmly breathed, the crimson assassin queen emerged, unknowingly pushing away the invisible influence.

It's happening again... What exactly is this thing called "Killer Queen"?

Although I did some research beforehand, I found even more things to be unclear about after learning more. It was indeed very interesting from all aspects.

We must give him puberty syndrome today and see what kind of illness he develops.

……

……

"Mom, I'm going to bed now. You should go to bed early too. Goodnight."

Wearing pajamas, Toyohama Kazuka (Yono) greeted them and headed towards the bedroom.

"OK, good night."

Feng Bin's mother, who was watching TV, responded and stared blankly as her daughter went into the bedroom, closed the door, and soon the light shining through the crack in the door disappeared.

Something is wrong!

Feeling uneasy, Feng Bin's mother took out her phone and started searching online.

[My child has recently improved academically, stopped being rebellious and arguing, and is now more proactive and optimistic at work. What could be the reason for this?]

Search results: What to do if your child is struggling academically? How to maintain a positive work attitude? How to cultivate an optimistic and positive mindset in your child? ...

Clearly, search engines have their own ideas.

Feng Bin's mother was full of questions. She frowned and pondered for a moment, feeling that her daughter's behavior recently was strange in many ways.

It's so convenient, it's kind of weird.

Feng Bin's mother found a social networking site where parents could share and exchange information, and posted the question there.

A reply appeared very quickly.

Are you in a relationship?

Fengbin's mother: "?"

Calm down. Hua should be asleep by now. This kind of thing is... very possible?

Toyohama's mother gasped and immediately called Sakurajima's mother: "Sakurajima, how's Kazuka doing lately?"

"It seems like you asked this question not long ago..." Sakurajima's mother sighed softly. "If she performed poorly, then the others were even worse. Aren't you underestimating your daughter?"

“That’s not true,” Feng Bin’s mother denied. “He Hua used to argue with me a lot, and even ran away from home several times. Her work performance was also average. It’s strange that she’s been acting so well lately…”

According to you, this should be something that makes you very happy, right? Do you really want your daughter to stay the same and even better?

"That was not what I meant……"
