Uneasy daily life

Angelina's eyes were lifeless.

"That's right! I'm the one who's in UFO!"

The white figure clenched its fist and said, "Did you understand?"

Angelina smiled, turned her head away, and showed the white figure the back of her head.

She stood there angrily with her arms crossed, her face cold and silent. After a few seconds, she moved to the other end of the tram seat, creating a sharp distance between them as a clear sign that she was cutting ties!

"Are you angry?"

A white shadow probes.

"no!"

Angelina insisted.

"Oh, that's good, you scared me to death."

The white figure shrank back.

"#!"

Wow ya ya!

It’s hard, the fist is hard!

Angelina turned her head sharply, staring at the white figure and said irritably, "You're so serious, sometimes you're joking and sometimes you're being serious—which of your words are you being serious? No matter what, I can always hang you on the wall!"

"It's alright, I'll hold a grudge and find a chance to retaliate." The white-clad figure was fearless. Looking at Angelina, whose anger was already at its peak and who wanted to unleash a devastating attack, he shrugged and said, "To be honest, I feel the same way as you."

Angelina rolled her eyes: "Who's like you?"

"On one hand, my emotions tell me I like you, and on the other hand, my reason tells me I shouldn't like you. Caught in the middle, I can't tell what I'm feeling anymore. I don't want any answer, but I also don't want to get no answer at all. But because of this, I can't take any action. So I just continue with the old way of getting along, with the feeling that I can't go back to the way I was before..."

Bai Ying glanced at Angelina, whose expression was gradually stiffening, and remarked, "I have a feeling you're holding a script for a lifetime of regret."

"What? You'll regret it for the rest of your life?"

“Like this… the life we ​​take for granted will one day be crushed by time, and the regrets and desires that remain unfulfilled will become a question in our hearts that can never be solved.” Bai Ying described vividly, “Perhaps it was a missed opportunity, perhaps a misunderstanding, perhaps cowardice. The reasons of the past have become the regrets of the present. For the rest of our lives, we will always chew on these regrets from time to time, using ‘what ifs’ to fill the gap in our hearts—this is the script for a lifelong regret, describing the story after the female protagonist and the male protagonist missed each other!”

Angelina was bewildered, feeling targeted, but not quite. She couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Who would like to read this kind of story!"

“From a psychological perspective…” Bai Ying snapped her fingers and said, “It’s about people who crave to be liked—perhaps they’re tired, perhaps they’re afraid, perhaps they’ve had regrets, perhaps they feel lonely, and for various reasons they can’t like others, so they want to put themselves in the shoes of someone who is liked and experience the feeling of being liked.”

"Because they refuse to admit that no one likes them, they want to appear strong and superior, even if it makes relationships seem distorted."

"?"

Angelina wondered if there had been any light novels of this type in the ones she had read?

"This can be considered a variation of 'If you don't like me, I'll make you regret it.'"

Holding her phone, Bai Ying said with interest, "In reality, there aren't that many people who care whether you're happy or not, what you've done, what you've thought, or what you've liked. Or rather—you might be liked by someone, but that person isn't someone you want to remember."

"Oh..." Angelina seemed to understand, but not quite. "What are you suddenly talking about?"

"I'm currently giving pointers to other light novel authors."

Bai Ying flashed his phone, which displayed the review section of a light novel. He was pretending to be an enthusiastic reader and starting a debate online.

"...So you also want to be liked?" Angelina suddenly asked.

"It's hard to explain, but it feels more like someone who's learning to like? Or maybe someone who doesn't understand liking? Or maybe someone who's trying to define what liking is?" Bai Ying shrugged. "Too long to read. Some decisions are difficult, especially when it involves other people, but you have to find out the truth in your heart... I've separated the Killer Queen to a certain extent. In order to move towards the future, I took this risky move that might allow it to escape and retaliate."

“Someone from the future revealed that I will disappear in the future, perhaps meaning that I failed to restrain the Killer Queen? But in any case, I cannot allow Yoshikage Kira to be reborn…”

The white figure slowly said, "I have made a lot of preparations. Whether it's the Crimson Troupe, Blacklight, or the brothers and sisters of Nian, I'm fortunate that the superpowered people in this world all have similar thoughts. Even if I fail and Yoshikage Kira appears, many people will send him to be reincarnated. But Yoshikage Kira has Killer Queen, who may be able to erase his information by reversing time, while you can remain undisturbed and retain your memories."

Angelina blinked and patted her chest: "Then leave it to me! Just a mere hand fetishist..."

"Are you sure?" Bai Ying asked. "That's a real psychopathic killer, arrogantly despising all rules, taking himself as the absolute standard, and using any means to achieve his goals, destroying anything—what would you do if he took hostages?"

"Uh... just freeze it..."

What if he turns your parents into bombs?

"what……"

Angelina was speechless. As a seventeen-year-old girl in the prime of her youth, she obviously couldn't imagine how perverted a person could become.

“So, I won’t let him live again,” Bai Ying said, troubled. “When I discovered you could retain your memories, I thought it would be good to have you as an insurance policy, but having you as an insurance policy would put a lot of pressure and trouble on you. I’m torn about whether I should say it or not…”

Angelina scratched her head with both hands: "You've already said it!"

The white figure swayed its head and sang, "Transfer one person's troubles to another's brain..."

"Fine! I believe you!" Angelina suddenly lowered her hand, her eyes wide. "I believe that White Shadow will absolutely not lose to Kira Yoshikage!"

Bai Ying leaned back and said, "Where does your confidence, which is slightly inferior to mine, come from?"

"Because you're the biggest pervert! You're just a hand fetishist! Keep it up! Think about it, you already have four girlfriends, wouldn't it be a huge loss if you lost?"

Angelina clenched her fist to cheer Bai Ying on, her brain probably overloaded, and she was rambling incoherently: "Alright! Now I've dumped my troubles on you, so start scratching your head!"

"Don't scratch! Every hair on my head is fuel for inspiration. You've already scratched so many, aren't you going bald?"

"Goo!"

Angelina looked at her hair in a panic, realizing she had accidentally scratched off a few strands.

Hmm... I didn't expect my superior to be carrying such a troublesome burden. No, I should say I knew it all along, but only now am I realizing how serious it is—maybe my superior is just too strange. I should probably avoid using my superpowers to hang him on the wall and cause him more trouble... Hiss! Is this a UFO?

Angelina couldn't quite describe her feelings; perhaps she was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information, but some of her emotions were very clear...

You want to disappear before I've even confessed my feelings?! No way!

You're trying to disappear before you've even confessed your feelings to me?! No way!

You've already acted like a jerk and you're thinking of running away?! No, that's not right either!

How should I describe this feeling? On one hand, I'm extremely dissatisfied, but on the other hand, I really like it...

Ouch! My head is about to split open!

That's right! What the superior is thinking, what his feelings are towards me, that's secondary... what I think is the real issue!

Angelina was a little confused. After losing several strands of hair, she took a deep breath and said resolutely, "Sir! You can't lose! If you win, I might be the fifth person to confess to you!"

Bai Ying paused, his gaze softening slightly, a smile playing on his lips, his handsomeness suddenly increasing. He looked at Angelina, whose eyes were blinking involuntarily, and slowly said, "I'm sorry, you're a good person again and again."

Angelina: (??へ??╬)!

You scumbag! This is a very serious matter, and you don't seem to care about the seriousness or importance of it at all!

How annoying!

……

……

"Name."

"My name is Tomoe Koga... Are you friends of your senior?"

"gender."

"Of course it's a girl! Are you interrogating me like a police officer?"

"age."

"16 years old, does that have anything to do with the matter?"

"Home address."

"What are you doing? I'm calling the police!"

Four sentences were all it took to introduce Bai Ying to a first-year high school girl.

At Mineohara High School, after school, students either hang out in clubs or go home and have fun, leaving the classrooms empty.

A cute girl with short, slightly curly hair, wearing the uniform of Mineohara High School, is being interrogated by three people.

From unease to doubt to anger.

Tomoe Koga turned to Sakuta Azusagawa on her right: "Senpai, are these the helpers you found? Something feels off!"

"Don't feel it, don't have any feeling, and don't use them."

Angelina calmly launched into a series of sarcastic remarks.

"Anyway, the situation has been clarified." Sakuta Azusagawa shrugged. "Because her best friend's crush confessed to her, she was so worried about avoiding that terrible situation that she turned back time by a day. When I found her today, she was even hiding under the podium in the classroom to avoid the confession."

Koga Tomoe's face immediately turned red: "Senpai!"

"In other words, they turned back time twice, and for two whole days they still didn't know how to solve the problem. The only solution they could come up with was to hide." Angelina was lost in thought, only her instinctive吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical comments) remaining. "How cute."

Tomoe Koga exclaimed, "What do you mean 'the only way'?! I've thought of many ways, but there's no way to solve that situation!"

"Isn't it simple?"

The white-clad figure crossed his arms, rested his chin on them, and said with a deep expression, "Admit it, you're an idiot."

"You are the stupid one!"

boom!

Tomoe Koga slammed her hand on the table in exasperation and shouted, "That person is a senior at school and someone my friend likes! How are you going to handle this?!"

boom! !

Bai Ying slammed her hand on the table and shouted back, "Call me Dad! What's wrong with being a senior? Everyone has a senior before!"

"?"

boom! ! !

Koga Tomoe was stunned for a moment, then slammed her hand on the table with even more force, managing to choke out, "How could I possibly trouble Mom and Dad with something like this!"

boom! ! ! !

"If you don't dare call them Mom and Dad, then let's try another way!" Bai Ying slammed her hand on the table and said in a booming voice, "Tell your friend that the senior wants you to call her, and tell her to go!"

"?"

Koga Tomoe froze, utterly enraged by this outrageous idea. She slammed her hands on the table and stood up abruptly: "Is my senpai planning to confess to me? If I send my friend in my place, won't both of us be embarrassed?! You're making me offend them both!"

boom! ! ! ! !

A tremendously loud slamming sound.

Koga Tomoe was so angry she was practically fuming.

Bai Ying blinked and asked with concern, "Does your hand hurt?"

"..." Koga Tomoe's eye twitched, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "No! It hurts!"

"You've been dragged into this mess for no reason, and it's not your fault, so why are you feeling awkward?" Bai Ying spread her hands and said, "Isn't it more appropriate for them to feel awkward? A senior you've met a few times, maybe even had a few meals with, suddenly wants to confess to you, or a friend who pulls you into their circle and half-heartedly announces their target, hoping no one else will interfere... You haven't done anything, so why should you suffer this social torture?"

Thinking about her own struggles these past few days, Tomoe Koga deeply sympathized: "Yes!"

"So listen to me," Bai Ying coaxed gently, "Call your friends over and let them play by themselves. Doesn't that feel great?"

"Uh-huh……"

Koga Tomoe nodded subconsciously, feeling quite pleased, but immediately shook her head after regaining her senses: "No no no no no—then, then I'll be caught in the middle!"

Bai Ying clicked her tongue, her face full of disbelief: "If you reject their confessions, won't you be caught in the middle? Since you're not going to act like a human being, why not choose an option that makes you happy but causes them pain?"

"Ah, oh..."

Tomoe Koga felt that there was some truth to that... just kidding!

"Senior! The helper you called is just here to cause trouble, isn't he?!"

Koga Tomoe frantically applied for help.

"You'll get used to it," Sakuta Azusagawa said calmly. "So, what if time goes backwards tomorrow? Is Shiro planning to disguise herself as Koga's father?"

"It's just playing a dad, no problem. I often play the dad for other people. My girlfriends say I'm overflowing with fatherly love."

Bai Ying gave an OK sign, instantly getting into character. His voice became deep and steady, a smile on his face that concealed a dagger, a dagger coated with poison, laced with excrement: "My daughter's only in her first year of high school, and someone's already trying to steal her? Heh, I'd like to see which brat has the guts. Maybe I should ask the teacher for his parents' contact information. The 'in-laws' should at least get together for a meal, heh heh heh..."

"hiss--!"

Tomoe Koga imagined the scene and couldn't help but gasp. That casual senior who cornered her against the wall to confess—if she encountered this situation… honestly, she was curious to see what kind of expression that senior would make.

As she pondered, she sensed a demonic thought stirring within her, and quickly suppressed her thoughts, watching the white figure warily.
