Chapter 63 My Friend's Friend Wants to Be Popular
The next morning, at the entrance of Shuchiin Academy, Yukinoshita and Uchiha Ryo entered the school one after the other.
Yukinoshita: "How's Enun-chan been lately?"
Uchiha Ryo: "Pretty good... (Completely addicted to the game, constantly shouting for it to start, pure dedication maxed out.)"
This scene was witnessed by the other students.
Student A: "Ahhh, has Yukinoshita, that aloof beauty, actually been won over? I don't believe it!"
Student B: "I'm envious, but if the other person is Uchiha... it's not impossible."
Student C: "But isn't Uchiha dating Hayasaka?"
Student D: "It's probably a rumor, since neither of them has admitted it."
Just after Yukinoshita left for class, Hayasaka Ai, who was the one everyone was chatting with, suddenly ran over.
"Uchiha-kun...are you free this weekend? Could you come over to my house?"
Your house? That's the Shinomiya residence. Hayasaka Ai wouldn't invite me over so readily, so it must be Shinomiya Kaguya who's looking for me.
Uchiha Ryo: "Of course, remember to have your young lady treat me well."
Hayasaka Ai was startled. What's going on? You didn't guess something, did you? Never mind... Anyway, it's Kaguya-sama's plan, it has nothing to do with me.
Upon entering the classroom, Shirogane Miyuki immediately greeted everyone, then quietly pulled Uchiha Ryo over.
"Uchiha! Everyone's talking about you and Hayasaka, is it true?"
Uchiha Ryo: "Don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors, don't follow rumors. I'll start being a model student."
Shirogane Miyuki was somewhat skeptical. "What were you two talking about downstairs just now?"
She invited me to her house for the weekend, and I accepted.
Shirogane Miyuki stood frozen in place. "Go to her house... I agreed..." those six words echoed in his ears.
From childhood to adulthood, due to family reasons, Shirogane Miyuki has never had the time or the inclination to date, so his rank may not even be Bronze.
As we all know: Iron-level romance is the "persecution level", Bronze-level romance is the "unrequited love level", and Silver-level romance is the "mutual affection but no courage to confess level".
The Gold rank is the "Confirmed Relationship Level", the Diamond rank is the "Hot Romance Level", and the God rank is the "You Know What I Mean Level".
Shirogane Miyuki sighed, then looked at Uchiha Ryo again.
"Hey Uchiha. I have a friend who wants to become more popular lately. What do you think he should do?"
Uchiha Ryo nodded. "It's simple if you want to be popular."
Shirogane Miyuki quickly waved his hand, "No, no, it's my friend who wants to be popular. I'm focused on my studies right now and don't have time to think about anything else."
"..."
Uchiha Ryo: "I know all your friends. Who is it? I'll just go find him."
Miyuki Shirogane: "No, actually it's a friend of my friend."
Seeing that Uchiha Ryo had fallen silent, Shirogane Miyuki continued.
"My friend's friend wants to be as popular as you, no! At least be able to talk normally with girls."
Uchiha Ryo sighed. "Alright, Shirogane, if you want to be popular, you might need to work on your eyes."
"No, no, no, it's a friend of a friend. And why eyes?"
Uchiha Ryo: "Look at yourself in the mirror. Because you haven't rested for so long, your eyes look very fierce to others, so girls probably think you're hard to get along with."
"It's a problem with my eyes," Shirogane Miyuki thought to himself, bowing his head in contemplation. "Isn't this just a matter of looks?"
After dealing with Shirogane Miyuki, Uchiha Ryo planned to take a nap in the morning. Then Yokoshima Naruko woke him up and called him to her office.
In the teachers' office, only Yokoshima Naruko and Hiratsuka Shizuka were present. Uchiha Ryo stood there yawning and asked in confusion.
"What does the teacher want with me?"
Hiratsuka Shizuka: "You and Yukino seem to be getting along well lately. Could you tell me about the time you both took leave a few weeks ago?"
Uchiha Ryo shrugged. "I just took a normal sick leave. Huh? Yukinoshita-san also took leave that day? I had no idea."
Hiratsuka Shizuka clenched her fists. "Do you think I'd believe that? Tell the truth."
Naruko Yokoshima coughed lightly. "Uchiha, did you two take overwork leave because you went too far?"
Uchiha Ryo: "Ah...right, right, right."
"Nonsense!" Hiratsuka Shizuka glared at Yokoshima Naruko. "What are you saying as a teacher? And you, Uchiha Ryo, is that really how it is?"
Uchiha Ryo: "I think you can ask Yukino. Anyway, no matter what I say, I doubt Hiratsuka-sensei will easily believe me."
Naruko Yokoshima laughed. "I told you that Uchiha kid is hard to deal with. Hiratsuka, go and call Yukinoshita from your class."
Hiratsuka Shizuka took a deep breath and looked at Uchiha Ryo, "...Is there something you're unhappy about with me?"
Uchiha Ryo rolled his Sharingan. "No, I'm leaving now."
Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded and then looked at Yokoshima Naruko.
"What are you unhappy about?"
Naruko Yokoshima: "Um, I wish to..."
Hiratsuka Shizuka: "Shut up! Uchiha...wait, where are they?!"
Uchiha Ryo was nowhere to be seen in the teachers' office. Hiratsuka Shizuka wondered if she was hallucinating; when had Uchiha Ryo left?
"Since we're skipping class anyway, let's wander around. Hey! That junior over there who skipped class with us, long time no see!"
Uchiha Ryo spotted Ishigami Yu playing video games on the playground.
"Senior, I didn't skip class, I was just slacking off during PE class."
Yu Ishigami took out his phone again; he had just thought it was his teacher walking by, which startled him.
"What are you playing?"
Yu Ishigami: "Senpai, would you like to give this a try? It's an excellent open-world game."
Uchiha Ryo: "Is that so? Let me see."
A class period has passed—
Yu Ishigami: "Haha, you're amazing, senior. Actually, I have a lot more games, but unfortunately there are no computers here."
Having made a promise with Ishigami Yu, who was in PE class, to play again next time, Uchiha Ryo, feeling bored, went up to the rooftop of Shuchiin Academy.
As soon as Uchiha Ryo stepped onto the rooftop, he saw Chang Wei beating Lai Fu! No... it was a silver-haired girl stepping on Kojima Souji who was lying on the ground.
"Dragon Ball Peach! Let me go if you dare! I'm a good man who doesn't fight women, it's not that I can't beat you."
The silver-haired girl disdainfully lifted her foot and then stomped it down again.
"Remember this island. The rooftop is my territory. If you come up here again, I'll beat you every time I see you!"
Kojima Souji looked up and suddenly looked at Uchiha Ryo as if he had seen a savior.
"Uchiha! Quick, help me get this woman's legs off!"
Dragon Ball Momo: "Huh? You're Kojima's accomplice!"

Is there still some undiscovered surprise inside Shuchiin? But just as Uchiha Ryo was examining Dragon Ball Momo, the girl's whip kick came flying at him.
Wow! It's white!
