Yukinoshita's Correction Method Chapter 471

Her cherry lips, pursed into a thin line, parted slightly Yukino Yukinoshita exhaled a long breath, raised her hand to brush aside the long hair that fell over her shoulder, and looked down at Dong Yunshan with her dreamy eyes. "From now on, you'll listen to me..."

Reflected in her eyes Yukino Yukinoshita's figure, Dong Yunshan murmured absently, "So beautiful..."

"... And then you suddenly say something like that again." Yukino Yukinoshita bit her lower lip lightly, her voice filled with a hint of doting. "I just can't do anything with you."

Strands of her beautiful hair swayed gently, entwining with Yukino Yukinoshita's increasingly melodious voice.

Although she often trains with Dong Yunshan, Yukino Yukinoshita's stamina is ultimately limited.

After reaching a certain critical point, one has to start relying on the support of Prone Pillow.

Then... Yukino Yukinoshita, snapping out of her daze, immediately pushed the Prone Pillow aside.

It can no longer be used.

If I keep using it, I won't be able to get a proper rest tonight.

Resting her head on Dong Yunshan's arm, Yukino Yukinoshita slowly found the most comfortable position in his arms and closed her eyes.

Chapter 804 The Questioning Stage

Inside the Service Club activity room, Dong Yunshan swiped her finger across her phone screen, browsing notes related to Sobu High School: "Huh? The results are even better than I expected— Yui Yuigahama, what did you and your friends say?"

"Me?" Yui Yuigahama shook her head. "I didn't say anything."

Dong Yunshan: "Hmm?"

"Yui Yuigahama and Iroha are indeed good candidates to set the tone, but after careful consideration, I think it's best if they don't say anything that could give them leverage, since they are directly involved." Yukino Yukinoshita smiled smugly. "So... I told them not to say anything, not even if anyone asks."

"I see?" Komachi Hikigaya suddenly realized, "The ball that was all the fuss about suddenly went silent, so of course everyone would be curious about what happened and would ask people they know."

"And the lack of answers won't stop these people from searching for them," Saki Kawasaki, wiping the cup in her hands. "It will only further fuel their curiosity."

"Good idea." Dong Yunshan nodded in deep agreement, Yui Yuigahama up and down. "Hmm... it would be even better if she could portray a melancholy, troubled, and helpless state."

Upon hearing what Dong Yunshan said, Yui Yuigahama's expression turned bitter and she looked aggrieved.

"Yes, yes, that's exactly the feeling." Dong Yunshan was somewhat surprised. "I didn't expect your acting skills to be so good?"

Hearing Dong Yunshan's praise, Yui Yuigahama's face turned even more bitter. "This isn't acting..."

Dong Yunshan: "Huh?"

"I just reminded her," Yukino Yukinoshita sighed. "The final exams are at the end of the month."

Yui Yuigahama was about to cry.

"Don't be so sad," Dong Yunshan comforted her. "If you're not confident about the exam, just focus on studying during this time..."

Upon hearing the call to focus on studying, despair began to surface in Yui Yuigahama's eyes.

"A book club!" Dong Yunshan immediately changed her mind, "Let's start a book club sometime and work together."

"Really?" Yui Yuigahama's eyes lit up, and she seemed to be glowing with joy.

Knock, knock, knock—a knock sounded on the door.

Dong Yunshan responded, "Please come in."

The door to the activity room slowly opened, and Iroha Isshiki walked in with heavy steps, her expression gloomy. She greeted everyone in a weak voice, completely different from her usual self. "Hello, upperclassmen..."

"We're fine..." Komachi Hikigaya looked at her with concern. "You look like..."

"It's alright." Iroha Isshiki forced a smile, then lowered her head dejectedly, her weak voice almost a sigh, "It's alright..."

"You don't look like you're alright," Saki Kawasaki said bluntly. "You look more like you're about to die."

Iroha Isshiki opened her mouth, then shook her head. "Sigh..."

Slowly closing the activity room door, Iroha Isshiki took a deep breath, skipped around, and asked in a light voice, "Yukino- senpai, how are you feeling?"

"That's a bit much," Yukino Yukinoshita reminded her. "Tone it down a little."

Iroha Isshiki winked, her smile playful and relaxed, "No problem~"

"Your acting is quite good," Dong Yunshan praised. "I thought you were worried about the final exams at the end of the month, but it turns out it was all an act."

"Final exams... at the end of this month?" Iroha Isshiki stood frozen in place, as if she had turned into a stone statue.

Saki Kawasaki: "Now there's a problem."

"We'll hold a book club later," Yui Yuigahama quickly said. "Let's all study together then!"

Iroha Isshiki glanced at Dong Yunshan, who had excellent grades, and then at Yukino Yukinoshita, who had even better grades, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I can rest assured."

As if trying to forget about the final exams as quickly as possible, Iroha Isshiki took out her phone. "You've seen the discussions on Little Snowflake, right?"

Dong Yunshan looked at her phone screen. "Watching."

I heard the Graduation Ball is being cancelled?

Why was it canceled?

What kind of dance?

[It's the one organized by the Student Council; they even had a rehearsal before.]

Many members of the Soccer Club went to help out; I heard it was quite a lively scene.

Didn't someone share photos before?

[Looks pretty good]

So why was it canceled?

[Are you really going to cancel?]

[Ask the Student Council about the situation.]

The Student Council president is in my class, and she seems a bit unhappy these past few days.

I also asked her about the dance, but she didn't say anything.

Many preparatory works have been halted; it seems unlikely to succeed.

[Really?]

[Some girls in our class went to help out, and they've been feeling down these past couple of days.]

What happened?

[No way, why cancel it after going through all that trouble?]

[have no idea]

"Right now, it's still in the rumor-circulation stage, the fermentation period, where more people learn about this. Next, we'll enter the questioning stage. The essence of questioning is the correction of cognitive dissonance; people will begin to seek the truth through questioning." Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Dong Yunshan. "At this time, we need you to find some people to provide the truth."

"I'll contact my online marketing friends right away." Dong Yunshan took out his phone. "When Cloud Snow Tea's Tokyo Branch opened, business was so good that they didn't have much room to maneuver. This time, they finally have a chance."

[It is now confirmed that the Student Council has indeed halted its preparatory work.]

With little time left before the Appreciation Party, stopping now would almost certainly mean the party is canceled.

Why?

[It's definitely not a problem with the Student Council; the rehearsals went so well before.]

[This is not guaranteed to be true; it's said that the school required the Student Council self-restraint.]

What is self-restraint?

[It means letting the Student Council cancel it themselves.]

Let's not talk about things that aren't guaranteed to be authentic.

[It must be true, otherwise why would he be so sullen and silent?]

[Yes, if the Student Council president wants to cancel an event, they definitely need to give a reason. If they don't have a reason, it means they're afraid to say it.]

[Just say the school required it to be canceled.]

[The school is referring to self-restraint.]

What is self-restraint?

[The school didn't say it was impossible, but they'll definitely make it impossible for you to get it done.]

[Was it voluntary or forced?]

[It could also be described as forced voluntariness]

[Wow, they've managed to shirk all responsibility while saving face.]

No wonder the people involved in organizing the ball haven't been very happy lately; I'd feel frustrated too.

[It's good that it was canceled; I didn't really think the dance would be anything special anyway.]

[really]

I don't like proms either, but that's not a reason for the school to ban them.

[really]

[Respecting student autonomy has always been a tradition at Sobu High School; this self-imposed restriction is a violation of that tradition!]

Chapter 805 Doing Our Best

"Sorry, I couldn't get you to go all out—there will be another chance next time." Dong Yunshan hung up the phone, took a sip of his drink, and sighed with a helpless smile, "Sobu High School is full of hidden talents. The online army was overwhelmed by the crowd's enthusiasm as soon as they entered the scene."

"Yunshan ..." In a pause between replying to a friend's message, Yui Yuigahama a worried look, "So, isn't this situation a bit bad?"

"That's exactly what I want," Iroha Isshiki sneered. "If you ask me, it's not enough. It needs to be even more intense. I want to see rivers of blood!"

"It's not that bad..." Komachi Hikigaya looked at Yui Yuigahama, "You mean, isn't this situation getting a little out of control?"

Yui Yuigahama nodded.

"Well..." Dong Yunshan's gaze turned to Yukino Yukinoshita.

"Just as I planned, with the first phase of preparation, this is the result of the second phase's explosion." Yukino Yukinoshita browsed other forums on the screen, nodding slightly with a blank expression. "It's time to move on to the third phase."

Iroha Isshiki's eyes were filled with excitement. "The third stage?"

"When the doubts are confirmed and the conclusions cannot be refuted, the doubting phase ends." Dong Yunshan flicked his finger, and the phone spun at his fingertip. "After emotions replace reason, the condemnation phase begins. People's thinking shifts from 'why' to 'why not,' replacing doubt with questioning to vent their anger. This is the stage where public pressure formally takes shape; everyone wants an explanation, a statement, a response."

"Thanks to the previous publicity, Little Snowflake is currently the most discussed topic, far surpassing other forums, but Little Snowflake doesn't have an official school account." Yukino Yukinoshita clicked the mouse. "I'll send you a list of several forums with official school accounts. Find someone to post screenshots of the Little Snowflake discussions on these forums, and really bring the battle to the school's gates."

"Yes, sir." Dong Yunshan looked tenderly at the focused Yukino Yukinoshita. "Minister."

-

Can the Student Council say something?

[What exactly happened? Let's not leave everyone guessing.]

It's about time they came out and debunked the rumors.

[How do you debunk a rumor if it's not true?]

[Insider information: The Student Council union was actively cooperating with the school to revise the plan, but the school is completely ignoring it.]

[Basically, the goal is to get the Student Council to carefully consider the potential impact.]

Why doesn't the school consider the impact?

Students have lost their autonomy.

Do we still need tradition?

[Actually, I've wanted to say this for a long time: the school's autonomy comes with conditions. You have to get high scores on tests and avoid causing trouble.]

[So you're going to cancel the dance you've worked so hard to plan, huh?]

[Does anyone really think a dance party is a good idea?]

Whether it's good or not is another matter, but voluntary cancellation like this is not acceptable.

[Isn't there an official account for Sobu High School on the forum? Let's bring it out and have a look.]
