As soon as Lee Mingyun got on the school bus, the first thing he noticed was that it was full of girls his own age, all of them wearing their pink uniforms.
They talked to each other, without making much noise and from time to time a laugh could be heard but there was no type of commotion.
Another thing she saw was that even the bus driver was a woman probably around 30 to 32 years old, who was smiling at the students training the bus, including her.
— Good afternoon Mingyun — the driver greeted with a friendly smile. She was wearing a pink long-sleeved blouse and black pants, obtaining a formal appearance.
Lee Mingyun would probably have been nervous if she didn't know the driver's first or last name because she would look suspicious, but luckily for her, every young man who passed by called the driver "Mrs. Chu."
— Good afternoon, Mrs. Chu — Lee Mingyun greeted with confidence to enter the bus, following behind her was the system 0010980 that went unnoticed.
Lee Mingyun sat at the end of the bus where there was no female companion nearby or next to him, so that he could chat without interruption with the 0010980 system.
But seeing that her system didn't say anything about how to help her with her first task, she decided to ask —So...how do I do it? —
System 0010980 rolled its eyes when it saw the blonde's penetrating gaze. —Just enter the school and pretend to be a student until your break, then I'll tell you what you should do.—
Lee Mingyun frowned at the system's response. —Better tell me now, so I'll be ready when the time comes.—
The system seemed to be considering for a few seconds and then blurting out "No" in response — I'll tell you during the break and whatever you say won't change my mind —
The blonde rolled her eyes at the words of system 0010980 and decided to ignore the little pink ball who didn't mean it about the plan to steal weapons from the school.
But after a few minutes he got bored...
It was then that Lee Mingyun decided to look at his classmates who were on the bus, but there wasn't much to look at other than just the backs of the girls, and when he was already falling asleep from the boredom of looking only at the backs of his classmates, it was when suddenly the bus stopped.
The door of the bus opened and a young woman came in wearing the same pink uniform that the others wore...
The young woman had pale skin, straight shoulder-length black hair and beautiful hazel eyes. She seemed shy because as soon as she entered and saw that they looked at her, she lowered her head and walked quickly to the other end of the room. part behind the bus.
Lee Mingyun was focused on observing the young woman who recently entered, but she did not notice that the system was also looking at the young woman with curiosity.
—She.....— system 0010980 stuttered, making the blonde pay attention to her.
—What's wrong with her? — I asked interested why the system seemed to be surprised with the arrival of the black-haired girl.
The system stopped looking at the black-haired girl to smile at Lee Mingyun. — It's interesting, you should approach her to be her friend, she seems to urgently need one— she said, mocking the blonde.
Lee Mingyun touched her chest, very offended by his words — The bipolar system says it —
— I'm serious Lee Mingyun, having her as a friend would benefit you — system 0010980 said in a deep and almost terrifying voice.
........
Being back in school after knowing that she had finished it was complete torture, because she had already learned everything that they are advancing, for her these classes were a total waste of time, worse now that there are only a few hours left until the end of the world .
Maybe it was out of boredom, or it was his enormous curiosity that he found himself observing the black-haired girl again, the same one he had seen on the bus, because it turns out that they were both in the same classroom, and thanks to the attendance list it was who discovered the name of the black-haired girl who turned out to be Xie Ju.
At first on the bus her curiosity was only mild, but after the system "advised" her to make Xie Ju her friend, her curiosity grew rapidly.
He had several questions running through his head and they were all about Xie Ju.
"Why did the system want me to be its friend?"
"Why did the system look so threatening and scary at that time?"
"Was Xie Ju important?"
Even if it was "Why was it so important?"
"Did she have anything to do with the blackened men?"
"Why did she look so pretty?"
And even though he had several questions, the system refused to clarify them, because every time he asked a question that little pink ball changed the conversation.
Maybe that's why he was staring at her, even if he knew that looking at her wouldn't answer any of his questions...
He came to the conclusion that Xie Ju was a rather shy girl, and since he saw on the bus that she didn't talk to anyone, she also seemed to be asocial. I couldn't understand why that little furry pink ball was so insistent on getting closer, after all she didn't have time to talk to schoolgirls when the apocalypse was in just a couple of hours, plus it would be useful to get closer if there was a big chance that she would die in the beginnings of the zombie apocalypse.
Maybe Xie Ju could feel the blonde's penetrating gaze as she shifted uncomfortably in her seat due to the discomfort her gaze caused her. She began to surreptitiously look around the classroom and when Lee Mingyun saw this, he decided to stop. look at her to pretend that he was paying attention to the class so that Xie Ju wouldn't realize that she was the one watching him.
And the rest of the class pretended to pay attention.....
......
¡Ding! ¡Ding! ¡Ding!
The bell for recess rang, and as soon as it rang, the students began to grab their things to rush out, until only two students remained, Lee Mingyun and Xie Ju.
— It's your chance Mingyun, go and talk to him — the system insisted happily to the blonde, fluttering around her taking advantage of the fact that she was invisible to the public eye.
— I'm not going to do it, besides you didn't give me a valid reason for it — Lee Mingyun began to put away his things to go out to eat, since it was likely to be his last quiet meal before the zombie apocalypse.
— It's just talking to him, how is it going to affect you?! — The system became nervous when it saw that its host was not obeying it and the young black-haired woman was already leaving the classroom.
– What does it affect? I'm going to waste time that he could have used to plan the theft of the weapons! — said Lee Mingyun, his words, although they were true, he was only half done, it was true that he did not want to get close to the young woman since he had to plan the robbery, but It was also because if he got too close to Xie Ju he would probably get attached to her, and that was bad, since if there was one thing he learned from his parents, it was to never get attached to someone in the middle of a war.
Since that always ended badly, and one of the two would die.....
The little pink ball, worried to see that the young black-haired girl was no longer in his sight and his host was ignoring him to leave, was when he finally became impatient with Lee Mingyun — It's because you need her! —
Lee Mingyun who was already leaving the room suddenly stopped to look at system 0010980 and let out a "What?!"
— I don't understand. Why do I need it? — the blonde asked, confused, to the system that seemed to be in a mental debate with it.
After a few seconds, system 0010980 seemed to be finally ready to speak — I didn't tell you before, but I can't help you any more than it helps you for your first mission, and even if I can't, she can —
Lee Mingyun frowned at the pink ball's words — Help? , You say you can't help me? —
System 0010980 hovered around the pigtailed girl — Exactly, it's one of our rules: rule 56 for multi-universal systems says that it is forbidden to help our hosts during their tasks, you can only be rewarded once they finish the assigned task —
The more he explained system 0010980, the more Lee Mingyun wanted to squeeze and burst the system, until he got tired of listening to the little pink ball talk—stop it...— he said impatiently—You're saying that even though you told me You gave the assignment and obviously you know where the weapons are in this school, won't you tell me where it is?...—
The pink furry system nodded to its host's words. "It's in the regulations, I can't interfere with your tasks, but I can give you clues, and that girl who left recently is a great clue to find the weapons."
The blonde turned red due to the anger that that annoying little ball caused her, but she still just sighed deeply, after all maybe it was destiny that wanted her to meet that shy girl, and maybe she could finally satisfy that curiosity. that he had throughout class about the stranger...
He grabbed his backpack firmly and ran in the direction where Xie Ju had gone.
She crossed the hallways that were rowdy as a teenager leaving her classrooms, walking alongside the rest of the girls, most of whom were heading in one direction, the dining room.
Lee Mingyun entered the dining room looking for Xie Ju, he searched for her throughout the dining room until he saw her eating sitting at a table in a corner, completely alone, lowering her head paying attention only to her own food.
Seeing her alone and she frowned wondering why there was no one around her, she grabbed a school tray and joined the line to receive a portion of food. Once she was given her food she went straight to Xie Ju's table.
Sensing the presence of another person, Xie Ju looks up from his food to raise his head only to see a beautiful girl grabbing her tray full of food smiling at her, the young woman had pale skin, wavy blonde hair tied in two pigtails. long, but the most beautiful thing about her was undoubtedly her blue eyes.
— Hello! — the blonde greeted enthusiastically with a smile — Xie Ju, right? — I asked, to which the named one only nodded — Could it be that I can feel with you? — I question
Xie Ju just looked at the blonde, trying to find some clue as to why she wanted to sit next to her, but not finding any malicious intent in her gaze, he decided to let her sit with her. "Sure," he accepted in a low voice.
— Thank you! — the blonde thanked, sitting next to her — By the way, I don't think I'll introduce myself, I'm... — she began to introduce herself until she was interrupted.
— I know who you are — Xie Ju interrupted — You are Lee Mingyun, you are my classmate in biology, chemistry and physics, in addition to being one of the second prettiest girls in this school and one of the "popular" ones — he declared enthusiastically. — What I don't understand is why today you decided to sit with me instead of sitting with your usual group — he pointed in the direction of a table of five girls, all pretty and attractive, who were staring at them without hiding, murmuring among themselves.
Lee Mingyun shrugged her shoulders as if shrugging off the five girls who were pointing at her and whispering about her. She seemed to be calm but inside she was cursing herself for not having planned her approach to Xie Ju better, and that her system had not had given him the complete memory of the previous Lee Mingyun, well at least he could blame it on his system of telling him at the last minute about the importance of the black-haired girl for the mission.
While the blonde was thinking of an excuse, system 0010980 hovered around her, going unnoticed by the others while repeating: "make up an excuse", "make up an excuse".
The young blonde, tired of the system, hit him with her hand, sending him flying to the other side of the dining room, but that in Xie Ju's eyes was as if he was hitting nothing, making her frown.
— Pufff, mosquitoes, always so annoying — the blonde lied, seeing out of the corner of her eye that her system was moving away from them, pouting.
The little pink ball had left her alone for the moment
Xie Ju just nodded his head, pretending to believe him. — You still haven't told me why you're eating with me — the short-haired girl questioned in a low voice, returning to pay attention to her lunch.
Lee Mingyun had to quickly think of an excuse, but after thinking about it he just told her the truth — I just wanted to meet you, I find you interesting —
The young black-haired woman saw her again — Do you find me interesting? — I ask curiously
Lee Mingyun breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Xie Ju had believed him — Of course, By the way! You are very cute —
Lee Mingyun really thought that Xie Ju was pretty, not as pretty as the five popular girls who were sitting in the middle of the cafeteria, but she had another type of beauty, a more innocent and fragile aura, he even thought for a few seconds that maybe she was whether it was important to the blackening of any of the targets.
"Maybe it was some kind of crush gone wrong"
Xie Ju blushed at the praise. — Thank you! — She thanked out loud, drawing the attention of the other people in the cafeteria. She turned even redder because of this and lowered her head, leaning further in her seat to go unnoticed. — I'm sorry, I got too excited because not many people talk to me or They're getting closer — he murmured.
The blonde smiled. — I don't understand why — she mentioned. — You're nice and it would be an honor if you were my friend — she proposed.
—A friend? That would be incredible — he whispered with a smile. — I just don't have many friends. —
— And I don't understand why — Lee Mingyun repeated.
Xie Ju suddenly became tense — It's because of my grandmother, she is very strict — I told her — I tried to make friends but she never approved of them and scared them away, she doesn't even let me get close to anyone of the opposite gender — she informed him to shut up. realizing that she had said things she shouldn't have said — Oh, I'm sorry, I think I said too much — she lowered her head in disappointment.
Those words convinced Lee Mingyun even more that he had found one of the possible crushes of one of the targets, or at least someone special for his mission.
— Don't worry, I'm not one of those who run away easily — the blonde said smiling, shaking her head, making the short-haired girl happy.
Lee Mingyun could tell that young Xie Ju was a very shy girl but once you get to know her she is an enthusiastic and happy person, so much so that he kept talking about meaningless things with her, completely forgetting the real reason for his approach , until system 0010980 approached again.
The pink system flew directly to Lee Mingyun, and stood in front of her. — Did you get any information yet? It's almost until the back-to-school bell — he asked, stiffening the blonde.
The blonde teenager just shook her head covertly, looking at the black-haired woman who was speaking. She had spoken with Xie Ju, but apart from knowing her likes and dislikes, she didn't know anything else.
—Oh! I also like chocolate, and Nutella is delicious—commented the one with short hair, being interrupted.
— Hey! Juju—he called her by the nickname he recently gave her, making Xie Ju look at her—By the way, do you know some school gossip, you know, some say that the weapons kept in this school are dangerous, even if it's for security — the blonde saw how the young woman's smile and enthusiasm vanished
— I've heard the rumors — I comment seriously — "that guns shouldn't be in a school," "that the principal is crazy for having guns in school," "that why are there only women in a school for "women" — he mocked — That's just ridiculous, the principal is just trying to protect the school, you never know when a group of idiots will break into a private school, where there is supposed to be money, they even question him for it.That there are female security guards instead of men — he explained. — The women could do it just as well as a man, plus they are trained and armed. —
Lee Mingyun was totally surprised by the black-haired woman's change of attitude. — I agree with you, female guards can be just as good as male security guards — she commented.
—Exactly— Xie Ju agreed —Besides, it's obvious that there are only women in a women's school, there's a reason parents send their daughters here, they don't want any men to approach them, no students, no teachers, no security guards — I explain — but the majority complain about everything, they even complained about the defense classes, they say that "Physical Education is enough for them to include a defense class" —
"Defense classes?" the blonde asked, bewildered, her system had not told her that the former Lee Mingyun took defense classes, in fact it had not given her almost any information about the former owner of this body.
— Yeah! You know the one we spend three times a week, plus it's another class we share, even today we have it after our chemistry class — I commented excitedly and as if by magic, the back-to-school bell rang.
Alarming Lee Mingyun that he had not gotten the location or any information from the short-haired girl, also fearing how he would avoid the "defense classes", since although he knew that he had experience in that area, it was not entirely ideal. Engage in some physical activity before the zombie apocalypse, or you would be exhausted and without energy when the zombies arrive.
Lee Mingyun: my system did not warn me of these problems, it seems to be defective, can you give me another one? 凸 ( ͡ಥ ͜ʖ ͡ಥ)凸
System 0010980: I should have chosen the stunt double and not the one who died due to poisoning (╯ ͡•͜ʖ ͡•)╯┻━┻
