Chapter 47: The System's Reward Is a Date with a Beautiful Girl, but the Beautiful Girl Has Two

~8 min read 1,415 words

"Is Ling really okay?" On the way back, Ono Mika still couldn't help but worry.

Xiya Ling was just dressed as a gyaru; she hadn't completely transformed into that kind of creature, and usually at the hospital she and Ono Mika chatted and laughed.

"If they don't go out at night for a while, those people will give up," Qingshan Li said, making a baseless guess.

Someone who lacks patience in studies doesn't necessarily lack it in other things; on the contrary, such people can have surprising patience in certain areas.

But it doesn't matter, Kamen Rider will take action—Qingshan Li decided to wear an Ultraman mask and beat them up three or four times.

Even a mouse, if it walks the same place every time and gets beaten each time, will eventually know to take another path.

The two returned home and discussed this matter again with Ono Mizuki.

The three talked for a long time, finally reaching a conclusion: refuse to talk to strangers, and go home immediately once it gets dark.

They are poor now, but as Qingshan Li said, as long as they maintain their current grades, graduate from Kaimei High School, and enter a National University, they have a chance to be promoted to Company Executive through 'Prestigious Graduate'—those with poor backgrounds and poor academic qualifications almost never become high-level company executives.

They, who have bright futures, certainly don't want accidents in their lives.

"Hurry up and take a bath," Ono Mizuki urged Qingshan Li, who was playing with a knife.

"Mm." Qingshan Li swung two more times before getting up.

After bathing, he returned to his room and glanced at the alarm clock by the bed that his former mother had bought him—an ordinary item worth 3000 yen, the time was 10:59.

After sitting down at the low table, it was exactly late night 11 o'clock.

——System, study.

【Guidance Start】

【Campus Mystery, Main Ability is Beauty: 95.3%】

The time was 1 AM.

Tomorrow is Sunday, so tonight he can be a little unrestrained.

After using the toilet and drinking a cup of water, Qingshan Li returned to the bedroom.

——Continue!

【Guidance Start】

【Campus Mystery, Main Ability is Beauty: 95.5%】

Closing the book, getting into bed, Qingshan Li fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.

Two hours later, one hour later than usual, at 5 AM, Qingshan Li barely woke up.

His brain felt as if it were being grabbed by an octopus, constantly pulled downward, making him alternate between awake and muddled, sometimes simply falling asleep for one or two seconds.

——System, save me!

【Guidance Start】

Qingshan Li, who had just been groggy and unable to move, coldly got up.

Wall sits, slow push-ups, leg raises with a bookbag hanging on his legs.

Not a single sound.

Qingshan Li felt a suffocating sensation of being bound and then buried alive.

Two hours later, the exercise ended, and he collapsed on the floor from exhaustion, but his hands still didn't let him rest.

Every knead and slap made his body twitch unconsciously, almost no different from electric shock resuscitation, and his body gradually became active.

【Evaluation Improvement】

【Strength: D→C】

After just a few workouts, strength went from 'Weak' to 'Ordinary Person'.

【Basic Attribute Upgrade, Reward Obtained, Collect?】

There's still a reward?!

——System, I was wrong before; I'll speak to you gently from now on. Collect!

【Reward Extraction In Progress】

【Obtained a great increase in novel material opportunities once, please choose】

——Needless to say, of course 'Campus Mystery, Main Ability is Beauty'!

System·Ryosuke got up, took the mobile phone from the bedside, wearing only underwear, stood straight by the bed, and called Mikami Ai.

——System?

The call connected.

"Do you know what time it is now, Classmate Aoyama?" A cold, pleasant voice slowly came from the other end of the phone.

"10 o'clock, waiting for you at Pharos Cafe in Jinbocho Station."

"Do you know what time it is now?" Mikami Ai repeated.

System·Ryosuke hung up the phone directly.

——!!! (Qingshan Li cursed, hit an animal)

Then, System·Ryosuke looked up the Miyose Family's phone number again.

"Hello." A maid's voice came from the other end.

"Tell Yaeko, at 10 o'clock noon, Qingshan Li is waiting for her at Pharos Cafe in Jinbocho Station."

System·Ryosuke hung up the phone again.

Qingshan Li regained control.

He didn't speak, nor did he curse the system; before it was just physical exhaustion, now it was mental exhaustion.

Leaving the bedroom, he went to the bathroom to take a shower; Ono Mizuki was inside using the toilet.

After waiting a while, Ono Mizuki opened the door and came out; seeing his current state, she immediately furrowed her cute eyebrows.

"Did you stay up late?"

"The battle with life knows no day or night."

"Why are you only wearing underwear?"

"Aren't you wearing underwear under your T-shirt?"

Ono Mizuki hesitated, found herself speechless, and could only scold her while making trouble out of nothing: "Your health is most important, don't faint again, Weak Male!"

She returned to her room, and Qingshan Li walked into the bathroom.

Cold water poured over him, washing away the sweat, and Qingshan Li began to think actively.

Since the system said this would greatly increase the material degree, it definitely could.

Secondly, he could take this opportunity to discuss the book matters with Mikami Ai and Miyase Yaeko in advance.

After finishing his bath, Qingshan Li returned to the bedroom and put on the school-issued sportswear.

He rarely wore only underwear at home; these past two days had been entirely accidents, and he hadn't expected the Ono Sisters to wake up so early—it was already 7 o'clock, but today was Sunday, so it counted as early.

Qingshan Li took out the math workbook.

—System!

【Body Recuperating】

—Didn't it just upgrade your energy for you? Is there a grading system? I want to give you an E!

The system went on strike, and Qingshan Li himself didn't persist either, lying back on the bed.

As soon as his body touched the bed, thinking he was full of energy, who knew strong fatigue surged up immediately, like a slotted spoon placed in soup, thinking it was full, but upon lifting it, finding nothing in the spoon.

He fell asleep.

Waking up from a nap, it was 9:24.

"Brother, where are you going?"

"Something to do!"

Qingshan Li ran all the way, looking up routes while running; outside, the bright sunlight shone, and his hair was blown up by the wind.

Rushing into Kitasenju Station, relying on familiarity, he charged straight ahead.

One hundred people saw him, and one hundred and one thought he was being chased—he thought so himself.

Boarding the train bound for Yoyogi-Uehara Station, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

On this Sunday of spring warmth and blooming flowers, there were quite a few people in the carriage; he leaned against the door, panting hard.

"Um, do you need it?" A woman in her twenties handed over an unopened bottle of water.

"No, thank you." Qingshan Li smiled slightly at her.

He looked out the window, watching the retreating scenery, and a surge of joy rose in his heart.

It feels truly good to have a stronger body and abundant energy.

Getting off at Shin-Ochanomizu Station, transferring to the Shinjuku Line, he only needed to ride one stop to reach Jinbocho Station.

Glancing at the time, there was still enough time, but Qingshan Li still started running; with every step he took, more strength seemed to surge out.

Only 【Strength】 could improve the evaluation, but Qingshan Li could clearly feel that 【Stamina】 had also become stronger.

Perhaps it wouldn't be long before he could rise from 'C' to 'B'.

Pharos Cafe.

Qingshan Li pushed open the door; compared to the bright sunlight outside, the shop was somewhat dim, filled with people's quiet conversation, the sound of stirring coffee with spoons, and the sound of flipping pages.

He scanned the shop.

Mikami Ai and Miyase Yaeko had already arrived.

Mikami Ai was reading seriously, elegant and classical, extremely charming; Miyase Yaeko was tasting coffee, exuding a breathtaking presence.

Qingshan Li stopped in his tracks, not daring to move forward: the two were not sitting together, each sitting on one side of a two-person seat, waiting for their respective dates.

—System, you sit!
