[I can't exactly tell you that I just went to run a dungeon a couple of days ago, fought off zombies in a parallel world called "Resident Evil X: Blade of Destruction," and also wiped out a horde of demons, and now I'm preparing to make a name for myself in this world teeming with gods and demons, can I?]
[In that case, I'd probably be considered a late-stage chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferer and sent straight to a mental hospital.]
[Or perhaps they were captured by a mysterious force and interrogated about how they traveled through time.]
He looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha's excited expression, as if she wanted to tell him more gossip.
"Yes, if that's what you think."
"There's nothing wrong with it."
Zhou Ye calmly admitted it.
"Wow."
Kasumigaoka Utaha let out an exaggerated exclamation.
She took a small step back, feigning wariness, and exaggeratedly crossed her arms over her chest, clutching her clothes tightly.
"Zhou Yejun, please don't project those strange, bizarre ideas onto me."
"Otherwise, we won't even be able to be friends."
Her expression was serious, but her tone was full of mockery.
The surrounding classmates also joined in the commotion.
Zhou Ye couldn't help but laugh when he saw her like this.
He took a step forward and moved closer to Kasumigaoka Utaha.
"rest assured."
His voice was lowered, carrying a hint of something inexplicable.
"I'll add money."
Kasumigaoka Utaha's expression froze instantly.
The surrounding air seemed to freeze at that moment.
After a few seconds.
"Pfft hahaha-"
Kasumigaoka Utaha clutched her stomach, laughing so hard she was shaking with laughter, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Zhou Yejun, you're really... getting more and more interesting."
The atmosphere in the classroom became more relaxed because of this conversation.
Only Yotsuya Miko, sitting in the corner, was trembling even more violently.
She secretly glanced in Zhou Ye's direction, her eyes filled with fear.
In her field of vision, behind Zhou Ye, there seemed to be several blurry shadows that exuded an ominous aura.
One of the shadows even seemed to be giving her a malicious smile.
Yotsuya Miko quickly lowered her head, biting her lip tightly, unable to look any longer.
Zhou Ye ignored all of this and went straight to his seat.
The school bell rang at an inopportune moment, echoing throughout the entire Komao Academy.
The classroom door for Class 2B was gently pushed open.
The teacher who walked in was the homeroom teacher, a middle-aged woman wearing black-rimmed glasses with a serious expression.
Two figures followed behind her.
It was just from Zhou Ye's words that Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Nami and Busujima Saeko in surprise.
Almost at the same time the homeroom teacher entered the classroom, the back door was also opened.
Two burly physical education teachers each carried a brand-new set of desks and chairs into the classroom.
They moved swiftly and without a word, quickly setting up the desks and chairs in the empty seats at the back of the classroom before quietly leaving, as if they had only completed a trivial part of their daily work.
The homeroom teacher pushed up his glasses and glanced at all the students in the class.
"Classmates, please be quiet for a moment."
Her voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable air of authority.
The quiet chatter that had been taking place in the classroom instantly subsided.
"Today, two new students have joined our class."
She turned to the side, gesturing for Nami and Saeko Busujima behind her to come forward.
"Both of you, please introduce yourselves."
Nami took the first step forward, a sweet and confident smile on her face, her long orange hair swaying slightly with her movements.
She picked up the chalk and smoothly wrote the four characters "Tohsaka Nami" on the blackboard.
Her handwriting was elegant, yet it also revealed a touch of unruliness.
"Hello everyone, my name is Nami Tohsaka."
Her voice was clear and melodious, with just the right amount of coquettishness.
"From today onwards, I will be your new classmate. I look forward to your guidance in the future."
As she spoke, she winked her right eye at the students below the stage, her eyes sparkling and full of charm.
Many boys felt their hearts skip a beat, and their faces involuntarily flushed.
Saeko Busujima's introduction is completely different.
She walked steadily to the blackboard, picked up the chalk, and carefully wrote the four characters "[Saeko Busujima]" stroke by stroke.
The handwriting is strong and powerful, yet its sharpness is restrained.
"Saeko Busujima".
Her voice was calm and unadorned, yet it possessed a captivating charm.
After her brief introduction, she stood quietly to the side, calmly observing everyone, as if all the noise around her had nothing to do with her.
The homeroom teacher nodded in satisfaction.
"Tohsaka and Busujima's seats are in the two newly added sets at the back."
"I hope we can all get along well and help each other in the future."
After saying that, she picked up her lesson plan and began today's lesson.
Kasumigaoka Utaha nudged Zhou Ye beside her with her elbow and lowered her voice.
Her voice carried a hint of teasing, like a cat's claws gently scratching.
"Mr. Zhou, is this what you call keeping a mistress in a golden house?"
Zhou Ye looked up from his book and glanced at Nami and Saeko Busujima, who were already seated in the back row.
Nami was taking in everything in the classroom with great interest, occasionally meeting the gazes of those who were stealing glances at her, and returning them with a bright smile.
Saeko Busujima had already taken out her textbook and was sitting upright, as if she had completely blended into the environment.
"You have good taste, don't you?"
Zhou Ye responded calmly, his tone revealing no emotion.
Kasumigaoka Utaha gave a soft hum, but couldn't help but smile.
"They are indeed great beauties, each with their own unique charm."
Her tone shifted, revealing a hint of mischievous anticipation.
"However, Zhou-kun, if our friend Zhu-nai, who has always had a crush on you, finds out about you bringing two girls into the school so openly, it's likely that a spectacular campus drama will unfold at Komao Academy."
Her eyes sparkled, as if she could already see countless interesting scenarios playing out in her mind.
"When the time comes, I'll use whatever I have on hand and incorporate it all into my novel."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ye not only didn't get angry, but instead revealed a faint smile.
He turned his head and looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha's delicate face, which was filled with the excitement of "stirring things up".
This guy's tendency to thrive on chaos hasn't changed.
However, I'm actually looking forward to her novel...
A thought flashed through Zhou Ye's mind.
He had some understanding of Kasumigaoka Utaha's creative abilities, after all, he had read her masterpieces in his previous life.
"As long as you don't go too far in your writing, and don't portray me as some strange or perverted character, feel free to use my material."
Zhou Ye's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached Kasumigaoka Uta 990's ears.
"The plot can be full of twists and turns, but the ending must be a happy ending."
Kasumigaoka Utaha was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Zhou Ye to react this way.
She originally thought Zhou Ye would at least refute her or warn her not to write nonsense.
"Oh?"
She raised an eyebrow, her interest piqued.
"So, Mr. Zhou doesn't mind me making your glorious deeds public?"
"He even wants to personally review my manuscript?"
Zhou Ye neither confirmed nor denied the statement.
"Let me take a look, it won't hurt."
"Maybe I can even give you some constructive advice."
Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her beautiful eyes and carefully examined Zhou Ye.
The man in front of her seemed somewhat different from the classmate she remembered—somewhat low-key, who occasionally uttered surprising remarks.
He couldn't explain what it was, but his intuition told him that something very important had happened to Zhou Ye that she didn't know about.
