---------
He briefly reviewed the system functions, and then took a look at the original manuscript of "Your Lie in April" in the system space.
Now, Nanahara Yu is brimming with confidence!
The light novels quality of this world can be said to be basically at the level of toilet paper compared to another world!
As long as he is given enough time to write the manuscript, even if there is no system, he is certain that he would be successful with the concept that he can plagiarise easily.
Not to mention now that the original work of "Four Lies" is in his grasp.
Putting aside the depressing ending of "Four Lies", which was the reason it was a great hit in his previous life, even the first half of the movie still had a great-entertaining plot and excellent writing.
In this world, it would simply have the new crown, so all else shall bow down unto it.
At worst, he could divide the four lies into two volumes...
'He he he he' He smiled maliciously.
He would use the first half of the roll to lure the dirty dogs that crave for a healing slice of life work, they shall not know that the lure they were given were a meat that was soaked with a lethal poison.
Finally, when they have gone far enough, to the point they have become addicted, he then kill them in the cruelest way there is—it would be with the second half of the roll.
Though it is a fact that there is no heart of man durable enoughto be toyed with, Nanahara Yu would be ignoring it for now.
Maybe when the tears flooded Chiba and the school is closed due to it, then, he may think about it.
'In fact, I'm kind—There are even more extreme ones, they should thank me I didn't chose them.' He thought, righteously. After all, Yuya Nanabahara is not a devil.
....
After fully laying out his plan, Nanahara Yu reluctantly put away the system panel.
Then he recall the sights inside the classroom.
Hayama, saika, Dango, Hikigaya...
He can even remember a lot of memories related to them.
He still felt somewhat dreamy about all of this.
Pinching his forearm, the pain receptor still let him feel it.
It seems thoroughly real.
He planned to drink some water to calm his nerves bit.
Although in this era, time travel story has become a common occurrence, he was allowed to be excited wasn't he?
He relied on the memory of his predecessor to reach the location in the campus atrium.
It is where Totsuka saika plays tennis and where Zaimokuza Yoshiteru eats.
It was not very far from the sports ground.
You can even clearly see the students sweating hard on the sports field.
Also, we would ignore how many girls greeted this MC on his way, because honestly, this dude is irritating.
And he had no impression of those people anyway.
It was obvious that his predecessor, who was obsessed with baseball, did not remember them.
Thinking about it this way, they were quite pitiful.
"I'm finally here."
The reason why Nanahara Yu came here is because there is a vending machine and a table for resting.
But after Yu Nanabahara looked at the vending machine in front of him, he suddenly showed a troubled expression.
It's not that he didn't know how to use the vending machine.
But Nanahara Yu discovered that he didn't have any Yen on him.
Nanahara Yu sighed.
He didn't expect to be in such a bad situation, which made him even more worried about the future of his life.
But after he recheck his memory, he was relieved to know that he was not totally Yenless, he just didn't have any money with him right now.
Since he didn't bring it with him, it shouldn't be a problem to ask from a classmate to borrow.
However, the class was still in session, so obviously there was no use to going back. And he was unsure if he still had the guts to face Teacher Hiratsuka.
But while he was troubled and look around hoping that a solution to magically appear in front of him... It did appear magically.
It was a girl he was quite familiar with, and she was reading a book, she was a bit distant but well, he had nothing to do anyway.
He glanced at the vending machine, then at the "literary girl", and then showed a satisfied smile.
'This must be fate!'
Nanahara Yu formulate the words he should say to the girl for a moment, then slowly walked towards the girl.
The beautiful scene in front of him—A ghostly pale woman with otherworldly beauty under the setting sun, contrasted by the slightly scarlet sky made Yu Nanahara daze for a moment.
Beauty is one thing, but beauty that entirely swallow it's surrounding is another.
When Nanahara Yu reached the sanctuary she was occupying, Yukino reacted very quickly, almost like a cat, it was adorable.
Although she was immersed in the world of literature just now, she had noticed someone was coming to her direction.
She just didn't expect for them to greet her.
The girl quickly put the bookmark into the book out of habit, and raised her head slightly to look in the direction of Nanahara Yu.
"Nan...Classmate? What's wrong?"
The girl had no emotion when speaking, and with her soft voice, one would described it to be very icy.
As Sobu High's "Flower of the High Mountains", she has a self awareness and confidence of someone greater than thou.
True, she has a very beautiful appearance, with a pale and delicate complexion, and her hair a dark and smooth one.
Although she is wearing loose sports clothes, she still has an aura that enchanted all living beings that were in her vicinity.
As the name suggests, snow beneath the snow. [TN: Yukino-Snowfield/Shita-Under/Yukino-Snowfied, so the pun]
It is an existence that people cannot normally touch, let alone obtain, as such it could only be marveled at its beauty from a distance.
Because if you are too close, the coldness would engulf you.
This woman obviously recognizes him.
She just say the first part of his name "Nanahara". So Why then, did she change his name to "Classmate"?!
But after he was offended for a moment, he didn't care much anymore, because they were indeed not familiar with each other.
At best, they both are celebrities of Sobu High and have heard each other's names.
Contemplating as such, his eyes quickly fell on the pink-covered book in the girl's hand.
When he saw the name on the book cover, Nanahara Yu was a little surprised:
"The Lover" by Marguerite Duras?"
Maybe because Yukinoshita saw the strange look in the boy's eyes, or because there was something shameful about this book.
After hearing him read out the name of this book, Yukinoshita Yukino's expression suddenly became very unnatural, and she subconsciously covered the cover of the book with her delicate white palms.
Obviously she didn't expect that a boy from the sports department like Yu Nanabahara would recognize this book.
This made her a little careless.
"It is a work of the French Goncourt Literary." The girl glanced aside and said coldly.
The girl looked calm and did not show any emotional fluctuations, at least on the surface.
But her slightly red ears hidden under her black hair gave everything away.
At least according to Yu Nanabahara.
She is absolutely not calm!
After all, this is a work that reveals the perception and reflection of sexual relationship between men and women in modern French society from different perspectives.
And there is no contact between nanahara and herself, so it was truly inappropriate to have a discussion about this book, according to Yukinoshita.
Understanding her cue, Nanahara also did not continue this embarrassing topic, but changed the subject with a smile:
"Yukoshita-san, can you do me a favor?"
But Yukinoshita's eyes became suspicious:
"What's the matter?"
"As the president of service club, can't you?"
"If it's within reason, I think I'd be happy with it."
Yukinoshita said expressionlessly, with a strong sense of intimidation in her eyes.
Obviously nanahara Yu hadn't thought of what Yukinoshita was thinking.
But he suddenly thought of a joke——
"Yukinoshita-san, you don't want our other classmates to know about you reading of this book, now do you?"
Did she think this scene would unfold?!
