Uneasy daily life

Bai Ying pursed her lips, recalling what happened this morning: "Where did the fortune teller hide? What's that guy's superpower? To carry out a suicidal frame-up with a 0% success rate?"

[I'm not his father, how would I know where I shot him? Get lost! Don't disturb my writing! Otherwise, you'll be in the dark!]

After hanging up the phone, Bai Ying shook her head sadly.

I thought you, as a playwright, were on the right path, but it turns out you're actually on the crooked side. You secretly lock yourself in a dark room and frantically squeeze out your inspiration, then when you produce your work, you nonchalantly declare that you have extraordinary talent, that you can write with ease, as if it were a gift from heaven.

Lock me up in a dark room? I'm afraid I'm not willing to aid the enemy.

Sigh... First there were playwrights, then directors of "The Untamed," a group of colleagues who didn't hesitate to embark on evil paths, completely unaware of the joy of fighting against deadlines, fighting against editors, and fighting against themselves.

Okay! I'll fill in two chapters of the second volume of the light novel when I get home today!

Bai Ying returned home with light steps. Just as she turned on her laptop, the doorbell rang.

Who's disturbing my secret efforts?!

……

……

Feng Binhua was ringing the doorbell, arms crossed, left toe tapping the floor, her young face showing impatience.

As soon as the white figure opened the door, there was a strange, subtle sense of déjà vu.

"Huh?" Feng Bin and Hua were about to go in when they found a white figure blocking the doorway. Her left foot immediately stepped forward. "Let me in."

"Wait, let me think." Bai Ying closed her eyes in thought, then opened them. "Why are you so annoying? I haven't done anything to you lately, have I?"

Feng Bin and Hua rolled their eyes: "You're blocking my way, and I can't even be bothered?"

"Indeed, please come in."

Bai Ying invited Feng Bin and Hua in, closed the door, and said as she walked in, "Although I am practicing medicine without a license, there is no evidence to prove that I am practicing medicine, so there is no need to worry about my abilities—please sit down, Miss Stickman, have you encountered any troubles lately?"

"Um……"

Feng Bin and Hua sat on the sofa, tilting their heads to look at Bai Ying. Her fluffy blonde ponytail hung down from the side of her head. After looking at her for a few seconds, she changed her posture, resting her chin on her knees, and continued to look at Bai Ying.

"Alright, alright, just say what's on your mind, I'm busy." Bai Ying's serious demeanor suddenly vanished. He casually leaned back on the sofa and guessed, "Did you have a fight with your sister? Or were you angered by the hero? Or were you annoyed by 9528's teasing? Hmm? Judging from your expression, it seems it really is related to them?"

Bai Ying immediately became interested, pondering Feng Bin and Hua's thoughts and emotions—the emotions were annoyance, and the thoughts were something she herself hadn't quite figured out.

"Hmm... how should I put it? I don't really know how to put it, but I'm just a bit annoyed. Ever since we had snacks and chatted together this morning, I've been feeling pretty annoyed..."

Feng Bin and Hua were a little irritated. They had a lot of questions, but facing each other, they were completely confused and didn't know where to begin.

Bai Ying became even more interested. He said seriously, "Come on, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and clear your mind..."

Feng Bin and Hua thought for a moment, then closed their eyes, took a deep breath, and cleared their minds...

Bai Ying asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Feng Bin and Hua subconsciously opened their eyes, their eyebrows drooping, their lips pouting slightly, and their voices carrying a hint of grievance: "Did you give my sisters something, but not me?"

"?"

Bai Ying paused for a moment, pondered for a second, and then erased that second of thought on the grounds of insulting intelligence—what could one figure out by following the stick figure's line of thought?

"I don't think so?" Bai Ying raised her hand and said, "Tell me in detail."

Feng Bin and Hua crossed their arms and said in a muffled voice, "When my sisters and the others talked about you at the gathering this morning, they seemed to have a different feeling about you!"

"What's different?" Bai Ying leaned back and said, "Does it feel like you want to cut me into five pieces or ten pieces?"

"certainly not!"

Toyohama Kazuka rolled her eyes and recalled for a moment: "You slept in the same bed with Taiyukinoshita?"

Bai Ying's expression was strange: "Hmm."

"Dayukino said that Koyukino made the first move, and she was just imitating her—did you and Koyukino also share a bed?"

Bai Ying said in a strange tone, "9528 probably didn't mean that... The hero just made a move."

"Then there's my older sister, I know that one, it's... it's about kissing..."

Feng Bin and Hua hesitated.

“Yes, you were there too,” Bai Ying asked. “And then?”

Then?

"Then I got really annoyed!" Feng Bin and Hua stared at the white figure. "What exactly did you guys do?"

Bai Ying leaned back slightly, his expression becoming inscrutable: "This matter, well, it sounds complicated, but it's actually quite simple, yet there's a complexity hidden within that simplicity. It's not that I can't tell you, it's just that it's not convenient for me to tell you, and telling you might cause some consequences. So let's discuss it..."

Feng Bin and Hua puffed out their cheeks: "Speak!"

"Are you sure?" Bai Ying said earnestly, "If you regret it, I want to hear you say 'I'm sorry, I overestimated myself'—and I want to hear you say it three times!"

Feng Binhe's cheeks twitched as past memories flooded her mind, making her legs tremble: "Stop talking nonsense! Tell me what you have to say! Explain everything clearly!"

It's just so annoying! So annoying that I can't sleep. I stupidly ran to the door and peeked through the peephole to see if that jerk was back!

"Ok, no problem."

Bai Ying grinned, opened her laptop (which was on standby), and waved to Feng Bin and Hua Zhao.

Feng Bin and Hua, their faces a mixture of curiosity and frustration, moved closer and peered at the screen. They watched as the white mouse cursor clicked on a folder and pulled out several video files. The cover images of these video files were all anime-style girls, which seemed rather odd at first glance…

Before Feng Bin and Hua could react to what was strange, Bai Ying quickly opened a video.

"Yes, this is what the hero would say," the white figure explained solemnly, "primarily using the hands..."

Feng Bin and Hua Jiang stood frozen in place, their pupils dilated, their minds reeling. Their heads darted back and forth between the white shadow and the screen, frantically switching between the two. Wisps of demonic sound emanated from the computer speakers, like an evil aura bewitching their ears.

Bai Ying asked with concern, "Are you alright? Do you need to say the password?"

Feng Bin and Hua glared fiercely at Bai Ying: "Where is everyone else?!"

Bai Ying clicked on another one: "This is 9528's tactic, which makes good use of its own advantages..."

"Ugh—" Feng Binhua was greatly shocked, her face disheveled in the wind, and she stammered, "Then, where is my sister?"

Her gaze darted back and forth between the video files beneath her, and she realized what was strange about the cover images!

This is clearly 18+! Anime 18+!

Could it be that my sister also...?

"No, Brave Plus is actually quite innocent," Bai Ying said with a smile. "Don't let her mature and composed demeanor fool you, she's actually surprisingly conservative and shy—didn't you see how effortlessly she was acting, but afterwards, when I ambushed her, she was so nervous she collapsed?"

Toyohama Kazuka couldn't help but swallow hard, glancing subconsciously at what was still playing on the screen. Although she knew a little about these things from the perverted Yukinoshita, this was the first time she had ever seen something move like this!

"Jie Jie Jie Jie..."

She snapped back to her senses and realized that the white figure was still grinning at her, which made her blush instantly.

Snapped!

Feng Bin and Hua decisively pressed the power button on the laptop.

Bai Ying stared at the blacked-out laptop with a stiff smile.

"I just wrote a 300-word draft—!!!"

"Pervert! Serves you right!"

Feng Bin and Hua suddenly stood up, made a couple of sarcastic remarks, and then ran towards the entrance.

Woohoo~ Stick figure is so naive. I told you not to ask, but you insisted, and you even blurted out the password.

Bai Ying reached out and turned the device back on, then ran back when she heard footsteps running away.

"Hey, you bastard!"

"What's wrong? Need resources?"

The white figure turned its head.

The blonde girl lowered her head, her whole body stiff as if frozen and cracking. She pinched the hem of her light yellow pajamas with her fingers, rubbing it into layers of wrinkles. Her eyelashes couldn't help but wipe her eyes, but she forced them up again, making her eyes look straight ahead, a mixture of embarrassment, annoyance, and competitiveness spreading across her youthful face.

She took a deep breath, probably wanting to roar, but the voice that came out was like a mosquito's trembling wings, low and shaky: "Is it...is it just me who can't do it?!"

"of course not."

Bai Ying smiled nonchalantly: "Would you dare to sleep with me?"

"Hmph! What's there to be afraid of!"

Feng Binhua's voice suddenly grew louder again.

Next scene.

"Sweetie, enjoy the beauty of innocent and youthful days. It's a rare feeling."

Bai Ying chuckled and patted Feng Bin and Hua's heads before wrapping herself in the blanket and closing her eyes.

Feng Bin and Hua lay in bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. Every four or five seconds, their eyes would glance at the white figure, but they would quickly look away, not daring to look any longer, lest the bastard accuse them of spying.

It's just sleeping together, no big deal.

Having someone else in bed just means it's warmer. I usually sleep with my sister, but sleeping with this jerk brings a lot of inexplicable feelings—the crispy, slightly charred edges of a fried egg, the noodles left in the soup pot after the vegetables are finished, the movements and posture at the end of a dance, the first syllable uttered when he opens his throat to sing…

So, he swallowed hard, his body sweating from the dance, and his vocal cords trembled slightly as he prepared to make a sound.

Feng Bin and Hua couldn't help but recall the video footage from earlier.

My sisters did such things? Should I... no, I think I might want to too?

Wow! What am I thinking?! I'm not some perverted Yukinoshita!

Feng Bin and Hua took a deep breath, closed their eyes, and went to sleep.

Can't sleep.

That bastard probably can't say anything, right? He must feel just as awkward as I do, right?

He secretly opened a crack in his eye and peeked to the side.

Bai Ying was sleeping soundly.

Feng Bin and Hua suddenly remembered being patted on the head earlier and inexplicably understood what it meant—kids, don't overthink things, go to sleep.

"#!"

written request for leave

A new month has arrived! (×)

The deadline can be postponed again! (√)

That's right! This is me! Just by combining the Azusagawa Kaede route, the loser route, the Shoko route, the Shirokage route, the Shirokage's girlfriends route, the Hikigaya Yuigahama route... and exploding them all together, I can create a world and complete this magnificent suicide, hahahahahaha!

As long as I keep taking leave, I'm sure I can find a timeline that surpasses my own, yay yay yay aba aba!

Also, today is Monday, and I found that the chapter I submitted for review has not received a reply, nor has the editor replied. I was stunned for a few seconds before I remembered that although today is Monday, it is January 1st, and Hedgehog Cat's review is still on holiday.

pain!It hurts so much!

I choose Infinite Tsukuyomi.

I want to create a world where everyone has to work overtime!

Chapter Ninety-One: Solo Kill!

Man is the sum total of all social relations.

Humans are not gods, nor demons, nor great, nor insignificant, nor good, nor bad... Humans are simply living beings, defined by society and in turn, defining humanity for society.

Therefore, the connections between people not only reflect a person's appearance but also shape that person.

Kaede Azusagawa inherited Hanakaze Azusagawa's social relationships, so she is merely a derivative of Hanakaze Azusagawa. As Kaede Azusagawa, she is too weak, only having the name she received from Sakuta Azusagawa. As Kaede Azusagawa, her experiences are almost entirely those of a shut-in and being close to her older brother.

She is not Azusagawa Kaede, but only the sick Azusagawa Hanakaze. The playwright could not find a character that did not exist, so he could not separate her from the story called "society".

The contradiction lies in the fact that once Azusagawa Kaede actively establishes more connections, it means that she is healing her wounds and hastening her own disappearance.

Looks like I'm destined to be the main villain.

Bai Ying pondered the plans and drifted off to sleep, but her thoughts were exceptionally clear even in her sleep, as she continued to think about all sorts of things.

Speaking of myself, there's a disconnect in my social relationships... well, not really. My past life shaped this life, and this life, in turn, has influenced others. People are interconnected, forming each other's descriptions, and also distorting each other's lives—undeniably, the heroes have influenced many of my decisions.
