Ghost Brain, Activated!

"I'm not interested in her." Yan Youyou was speechless, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes.

"It's okay, just treat it as entertainment."

Li He was not angry when he was rejected.

Instead, he pulled over a chair and sat down casually next to the service counter where Yan Youyou was working.

Yan Youyou was furious.

She immediately lowered her head, took out her phone, and quickly tapped on the screen to send a message to the contact at the top of her chat list.

"Ah Ling... if you have time, could you come to the school library?"

An annoying guy is harassing me...

After sending it, she looked at the chat box and felt that the last sentence made her seem useless.

After hesitating for a moment, she bit her lower lip and added, blushing:

We're good friends... You wouldn't just stand by and watch me die, would you? Haha...

He also casually sent a "Good bro.JPG" emoji.

However, Ah Ling has not replied yet, and it is unknown what he is doing now.

She quietly breathed a sigh of relief, placing her phone face down on the table, as if that would block out the uncomfortable gaze from the side.

At the same time, a hint of anticipation rose in her heart, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

It seems I was right.

Li He secretly pondered, his sense of superiority almost overflowing.

"I've seen plenty of girls like Yan Youyou."

The aloof and unapproachable demeanor is merely a protective facade created by long-term isolation, deep-seated inferiority complex, and an extreme craving for attention and recognition.

Just a little bit of "sunshine" and "kindness" can break through her fragile icy shell and make her feel that "this person is different from those who bully me."

She can easily develop feelings for me, then become dependent, and finally... completely fall into my hands.

"I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain from coming to Shilu, hehe..."

He came to Ishiro from the noble Kawasaki for two purposes.

Firstly, it was for part-time work.

For some reason, a large number of part-time jobs with ridiculously high salaries for students have suddenly appeared in Ishibu City recently, making even a Kawasaki high school student like him, who prides himself on having seen the world, envious.

So, he asked a "friend" in Shilu for help and easily got this easy and respectable librarian job, intending to earn some generous pocket money.

The second method involved using the prestigious "high school" of Kawasaki High School to seduce female students from Ishizuki, even though he already had a girlfriend...

But so what?

Women—in his eyes as a yang-jiao (positive angle) person.

It's just a toy.

When you get tired of it, just throw it away.

Or "giving alms" to those "ordinary boys" who only bury themselves in books, wear glasses, and have gloomy personalities, so they can become their simps.

Watching those "lowly" men grovel before the "objects" they have discarded, treating them like goddesses.

Meanwhile, the true "master" was watching all of this from the shadows...

That twisted pleasure of being above others and manipulating their emotions.

It always brought him the ultimate pleasure!

Women are objects, and men inferior to me are toys. I'm sunny, handsome, popular, and have a great physique—all of this is what I deserve! Trash doesn't deserve a voice; you only deserve to look up at me from a corner!

"Let me tell you, Youyou..."

Li He leaned forward, lowered his voice, and deliberately created an atmosphere of sharing secrets.

Yan Youyou wasn't listening at all.

"That bitch Gu Meizi really messed with someone in Kawasaki! She messed with the wrong person—Lu Ziyan, you know? She's the real boss of Kawasaki, the captain of the kendo club, and the champion of the last national kendo tournament!"

He observed Yan Youyou's profile, and seeing that she had no reaction, he raised his voice, his tone becoming threatening:

"Besides, I heard that Senior Lu's family... has underworld connections! A real yakuza family! Someone like Gu Meizhi isn't even worthy of carrying Senior Lu's shoes!"

Yan Youyou was very annoyed, thinking: Why do disgusting people talk so much... Ah Ling, why haven't you replied to my message yet?

However, she has no choice now, as she cannot leave the library during her part-time job.

He could only take a deep breath and unleash a skill that every student with a dark side possessed—the Ghost Brain!

Simply put, it means: things go in one ear and out the other, and the mind wanders into a fantasy world that belongs only to oneself!

She silently took out her phone, opened Notion, and entered a state of serene, detached thought.

Ah, that's the outline for the first volume of "The Literary Girl and the Cardboard Knight"... Hmm, but I need to add a few more climactic parts...

"Literary Girl X Cardboard Knight" is a fantasy campus romance light novel written by the currently unknown legendary light novel author Yan Youyou, and is not yet serialized.

The story tells of Yan Youyou, a "literary girl" who suffers from long-term school bullying and can only find solace in the world of literature.

One day, they unexpectedly encounter a chuunibyou "cardboard knight" who claims to be from "another world" and is temporarily trapped in a cardboard box due to a magical disorder.

Unexpectedly, both of them suffer from a rare "adolescent syndrome," which allows them to see "world malice" that is invisible to ordinary people.

Thus, the two awkwardly begin their romance while joining forces to fight against the evil organization "The Holy Church" that attempts to corrupt the world with the "Scripture of Nothingness"!

After a series of adventures, misunderstandings, jealousy, and fighting side by side, in the final battle, the literary girl resolutely activated a forbidden technique to save the world and her beloved knight, her life as fragile as a candle in the wind.

The story concludes with a grand summer festival fireworks display.

The battered and bruised Cardboard Knight sat on a high rooftop, cradling the dying Literature Girl in his arms.

Brilliant fireworks burst above their heads, illuminating the girl's pale yet incredibly beautiful face.

"Mr. Knight..."

The girl was barely breathing, but with her last bit of strength, she gave a smile that made even the stars pale in comparison.

She raised her trembling hand and gently touched the knight's bloodstained cheek:

"I... I like you the most... ever since that day, when you saved me in the bathroom with a cardboard box on your head... I've liked you the most..."

At the same time, he made a heartfelt confession.

The light in her eyes faded away, like a candle flame slowly burning out.

The beautiful girl, as delicate as a fragile doll, closed her eyes forever in the arms of her beloved knight.

The knight held her growing cold body tightly, tilted his head back, and let out a heart-wrenching, utterly desperate cry:

"No—!!! Yu-Yu! Without you…how can I live without you—!!!"

Suddenly, without warning, a heavy snow began to fall on what had been a clear summer night.

The snow fell so deep, so earnestly...

Pure white snow, like the most sorrowful curtain, slowly covered the two people embracing...

No, it was covering the knight who was tightly embracing the girl's body, as if he had become an eternal sculpture of grief.

It is poignant, desolate, and so profound it is suffocating.

The camera seemed to be slowly pulled away by an invisible hand.

Passing through the swirling snow and over the desolate city lights, until those figures became an insignificant black dot on a snow-white canvas.

At the same time, a slightly husky background music started playing at just the right moment:

【♫Once upon a time, there was someone who loved you for a long time, but unfortunately, the wind gradually blew the distance between you so far…♫】

Oh ho~

What a delicious and satisfying meal!

I don't know why fireworks are set off on a snowy day.

But that kind of thing doesn't matter anymore, it doesn't matter what, as long as it's tragic enough...

Yan Youyou couldn't help but smile slightly, completely immersed in the fantasies of the ghost brain.

The girl with black-rimmed glasses had an originally aloof expression, but her heartfelt laughter melted away the ice and snow from her face.

The curve of her thin lips resembled a flower quietly blooming.

Li He's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily as he swallowed a mouthful of saliva that suddenly felt dry.

So beautiful... I never knew that the corners of the body could be this beautiful.

That smile only strengthened his resolve to pursue Yan Youyou.

This woman must become my plaything!

On the other side, in a corner of the library.

If someone were to happen to pass by here, they would be terrified, perhaps even wondering if they were hallucinating from over-studying.

Why is a copy of "Pure and Hot Ghost 3" floating in the air?

Could it be that we encountered a ghost?

Coconut: "This is very interesting..."

After all, following Yan Youyou around all the time was a bit boring for her. She couldn't reveal herself and had to stay alert at all times...

So, she recently became obsessed with light novels. It all started when she was wandering around aimlessly while Yan Youyou was asleep, and she accidentally stumbled upon a book.

"The Hot and Pure Ghost 1" tells the love story between the domineering, muscular scholar Fan Ma Caichen and the pure and innocent ghost Luo Xiaoqian.

Then, she watched it with great enthusiasm, and then found "Pure and Hot Ghost 2" and watched it until Youyou woke up in the morning.

Just as she was still not satisfied and wanted to find the third part, she searched through Yan Youyou's bookshelves and room, but couldn't find the sequel no matter what she did.

Unexpectedly, after searching high and low, I stumbled upon "The Innocent Ghost 3" in this secluded corner while working part-time at the library with Yan Youyou today!

Hehe, it's so pretty!

the other side.

Li He continued talking incessantly.

They talked about funny things from the baseball and soccer clubs, who dated whom, who broke up with whom, who cheated on whom...

They even talked about something really outrageous—

There was a lewd guy at their school who fell in love with a hot, experienced girl and even wrote a light novel about his experience, which was published.

"Me, with zero dating experience, and you, a master of romance," lol...

He scoffed, his tone full of disdain and contempt.

"Hahaha, that's hilarious! Picking up trash that others don't want, and pretending to be all innocent? You know what? Youyou, we all secretly call that guy disgusting..."

"Hey, you know what? Someone actually wrote a light novel based on their own experiences..."

"This kind of person just has something wrong with their brain, hahaha!"

Suddenly, Li He, who was laughing, felt a chill run down his spine and instinctively shivered. He looked at Yan Youyou...

Yan Youyou was staring at him with a cold, disgusting, and angry look.

Her chest rose and fell slightly, and her knuckles turned white from gripping the edge of her phone so tightly.

Pick up a book at random, grip the hard spine with both hands, and hold it high.

Then, with all her might, carrying the pent-up frustration from the entire conversation and the loathing for the past.

And extreme anger towards this guy who takes pleasure in mocking others—

It slammed down hard!

"Pfft—!!"

A tooth-grinding impact rang out, interspersed with what sounded like a "crack" of cartilage dislocation.

"Pfft!!! Idiot!! A bag of oil!!!"

Li He screamed in agony.
