When Wuye had composed himself and returned home, doing his best to remain calm, Kushina and Mikoto had already switched back.
Naturally, Wuye could not use his Byakugan at home to distinguish their chakra, so there was no way he could tell at first glance.
But after spending enough time together, the differences in many little habits would surely make him suspicious.
So...
Mikoto, wearing Kushina's appearance, gracefully and gently leaned toward him.
"Hmm?"
A huge question mark seemed to pop up over Wuye's head. "Kushina, you..."
The real Kushina, wearing Mikoto's appearance, stood silently to one side, her eyes gleaming.
He's going to see through it! He's going to see through it! Ahahaha...
She cheered inwardly.
"Wuye, do I imitate Mikoto well?"
Kushina-looking Mikoto leaned against Wuye's side and breathed softly against his cheek.
Mikoto-looking Kushina: "???"

Mikoto-looking Kushina was dumbfounded. "Y-yes... that's... that's right..."
She had never expected Mikoto to pull off their identity swap like this.

Her slightly stammering, troubled appearance did not attract Wuye's attention for the moment. Instead, it happened to fit the mood Mikoto ought to have been in.
Wuye lowered his voice and tugged at Kushina-looking Mikoto's little hand. "Stop fooling around. Mikoto isn't in a good mood..."
"Ah? Is that so?"
Kushina-looking Mikoto blinked. "But Mikoto was the one who suggested it!"
She winked toward Kushina.
