Chapter 18 - Chapter 18 Contact Brings Opportunity

As lunch break ended, the students of Class 1-B gradually returned to the classroom.

The first class in the afternoon was Japanese Literature.

When he saw the tall, full-figured, and graceful black-haired beauty wearing a white lab coat.

Lin Mu immediately recognized her.

Hiratsuka Shizuka, the 'Cute Shizuka,' an older single woman constantly pressured by her parents to marry but always failing at blind dates.

She was almost thirty, yet she claimed to be a 29-year-old beautiful girl forever.

Is 29 still considered a girl?

She seemed to still be pure; perhaps that counted, barely?

Of course, compared to these impressions, Hiratsuka Shizuka gave Lin Mu the feeling of a close older sister, and a very good teacher who was excellent at guiding and educating students.

Well, since Kirisu Mafuyu had appeared, it was quite normal for Hiratsuka Shizuka to be teaching at the school.

Lin Mu glanced a few times, then pulled out his textbook and pretended to listen attentively.

Japanese Literature, well, those who know, know.

As a transmigator from the great Celestial Empire, half of the Japanese Literature consisted of Chinese characters.

Therefore, he had no difficulty learning it and found it easier to understand poetry than others.

After listening for a while, Lin Mu started to slack off.

His light novel was almost finished with its first volume.

With his physical strength, which was twice as powerful as an ordinary person's, coupled with his super recovery ability and the wealth of work knowledge in his mind to draw upon, his typing speed far exceeded his struggling past self.

Since the novel was almost finished, he needed to consider submitting it soon.

He had checked online.

Currently, there were two famous publishing houses in Japan.

One was Dengeki Bunko; this company mainly promoted light novels and manga with an otherworldly adventure theme.

However, the campus romance comedy about stock trading that Lin Mu was writing naturally couldn't be submitted to Dengeki Bunko.

So, there was only one choice left.

To choose Undead River Bunko.

This company primarily published works with a campus romance theme. Currently, the most famous one, "love metronome," which sold 500,000 copies of its first volume, was from Undead River Bunko.

Having decided on the submission company, the next step was to choose an editor.

Online, there happened to be email information for editors.

After class, Lin Mu opened his computer and started choosing.

When he saw an editor named Machida Sonoko, his eyes lit up.

Machida Sonoko was the editor in charge of Kasumigaoka Utaha, the author of "love metronome."

Choosing Machida Sonoko meant he would have a chance to interact with her author, Kasumigaoka Utaha.

This was perfect for Lin Mu, who wanted to form contracts with beautiful girls.

Having settled on the editor, Lin Mu was somewhat impatient.

Unconsciously, the class ended.

Hiratsuka Shizuka, leaving homework, hastily left the classroom.

Lin Mu yawned, somewhat bored, and slumped onto his desk.

Suddenly remembering he still had a wife in an online game, he perked up again, opened his computer, and logged in.

As soon as he logged in, he saw the priest character "Ako" greeting him with a barrage of messages.

"My dear innocent-kun, you're finally back! Waaah, I thought you didn't want me anymore!"

"I waited every day, and finally, I found you!"

"Uh..." Lin Mu looked at the bold statements, momentarily speechless.

Then he checked her online time. Good heavens, dozens of hours, always online.

She hadn't logged off once!

This was definitely a severe internet addict girl!

Lin Mu's game name was "Lin Tianzhen," so the other party called him innocent-kun.

After mumbling a few complaints to himself, Lin Mu sent her a message.

"Sorry, Ako, I had a cold these past two days, so I didn't log on. You shouldn't stay online all the time either; you need to rest."

After receiving the message, the other party replied almost instantly.

Ako: "Mmm, I know, hehe, I knew my dear wouldn't abandon me."

Lin Mu: "Let's do a dungeon. Class is about to start, so we can only do one."

Ako: "Mmm, let's go!"

After doing a dungeon with his online game wife, Lin Mu appeased her and logged off.

He just hoped she really was Tamaki Ako.

Otherwise, if this online game wife turned out to be a man, that would be too disgusting.

Putting away his computer, Lin Mu began to wait for the last class of the day.

The second class in the afternoon was outdoor physical education.

So all the students changed into short-sleeved sportswear convenient for exercise.

The P.E. teacher, Tanaka, was a muscular man who looked very sturdy.

He led the students through warm-up exercises, then had the class representative retrieve a volleyball, announcing that students could freely form teams for volleyball practice.

And at moments like these, the importance of friends became apparent.

People without friends feel awkward when they can't find someone to team up with during physical education class.

Lin Mu originally wanted to team up with Hayama, but that guy was already chatting and laughing with Tobe Sho.

Or rather, Tobe Sho stuck to him the moment the teacher announced it, making Hayama Hayato embarrassed to refuse.

Helpless, Lin Mu had no choice but to approach a boy who exuded an aura of loneliness and had a pair of dead fish eyes.

"Hachiman Hikigaya, I see you're alone too, how about we team up?"

Hachiman Hikigaya was sighing as he watched Totsuka Saika being called away to chat and laugh with other classmates.

Suddenly being spoken to, he was a little surprised, but he didn't want to be alone either, so he immediately agreed.

"I have no objections."

Seeing him agree, the corners of Lin Mu's mouth rose slightly.

Contacting Hachiman Hikigaya was naturally for a purpose.

Hachiman Hikigaya has a very cute younger sister named Komachi Hikigaya.

He wouldn't miss any high-quality dependents.

If there's a chance, he definitely has to make contact, maybe there will be a chance to score... ah no, to contract the girl and gain a new ability.
