Superpowers Don't Want to Be Popular

Seeing Shangchuan Mingyu stop in an apartment, Gabriel also stopped.

"Ah."

Shangchuan Mingyu nodded and was about to leave.

He has already led the way, what is he still doing here.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Shangchuan, what's your room number?" Gabriel continued to ask, "I plan to visit you later."

"...201."

"201? I'm 202." Gabriel exclaimed, "I live next door to you, what a coincidence."

"Ah."

Shangchuan Mingyu was not surprised.

For him, it is more important to go home now.

However, when he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something.

So, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Goodbye."

After speaking, without waiting for Gabriel to react, she left without hesitation.

"Goodbye."

Looking at the back of Shangchuan Mingyu leaving, Gabriel smiled and waved to him.

After standing downstairs to confirm that he had returned to the room, Gabriel began to go upstairs to find her own room.

"Sensei Uekawa is so interesting."

Recalling Mingyu Shangchuan's every move just now, Gabriel couldn't help laughing.

···········

"I'm so tired."

After putting the snacks in the kitchen, Mingyu Shangchuan collapsed powerlessly on the bed.

The communication with Gabriel just now has exhausted all his energy.

"Is this the life of ordinary people? It's really difficult!"

After a short rest, Shangchuan Mingyu got up and came to the desk.

Finding a blank notebook, Shangchuan Mingyu picked up a pen and wrote down everything that happened today.

According to human parlance, his behavior is called diary writing.

But his purpose is not to keep a diary, but to study.

Learn the way ordinary people speak, their habits and so on.

Especially when it comes to dialogue.

Therefore, he wrote out the entire conversation between himself and Gabriel from the beginning to the separation.

He hopes to learn the skills of communicating with others.

He is not someone who gives up so easily.

Of course, he doesn't know how to write anything, and he conceals his superpowers.

Ordinary people don't have superpowers.

After silently reading what Gabriel had said twice, Mingyu Shangchuan closed the notebook contentedly, found a drawer and stored it properly.

This is a very important study material, so don't lose it casually.

"Okay, the time is almost up, it's time to study."

So, Mingyu Shangchuan opened the laptop that was set aside, and searched how to communicate with normal people.

The next day, at six o'clock in the morning.

Probably because he went to bed early yesterday, Shangchuan Mingyu woke up very early today.

"Today's task is to learn how to be an ordinary high school student."

After breakfast, Shangchuan Mingyu sat in front of the desk again, opened his notebook and continued his search and study.

Because most people of his age will go to high school, so after he came out of that place, he also found a high school for himself.

Under the influence of his superpower, he easily obtained the admission letter of Xiuzhiyuan College.

However, he had never been to school before that.

Therefore, he must study hard to become an ordinary high school student.

"What I want to be is an ordinary high school student, and I must not become the kind of person who stands out."

With such thoughts in mind, Mingyu Shangchuan resolutely ruled out content such as 'how to become the king of popularity', 'teaching you how to be popular' and the like.

With a clear goal, he soon found the information he wanted.

After decisively clicking on it, Shangchuan Mingyu started his own study.

"First of all, you can't be an otaku."

Shangchuan Mingyu read out the content displayed on the screen word by word.

otaku?

What it is?

In Shangchuan Mingyu's 16 years of life experience, he has never heard of this word.

"Then do a search."

For an unfamiliar term, Mingyu Shangchuan was still a little curious.

Under his search, a lot of information suddenly popped up.

"So, do otaku just stay at home and call their wives to the Two-dimensional paper man that doesn't exist in this world? I feel a little biased?"

After browsing various posts and materials, Mingyu Shangchuan made a summary.

"It doesn't matter, it's right not to be an otaku anyway."

After he learned that the status of otaku in this country is very low, Mingyu Shangchuan became more determined not to be an otaku.

He wants to be an ordinary person, so it's better to stay away from the so-called two-dimensional.

"Then next."

"In terms of appearance, you must keep the most basic cleanliness, not too sloppy."

"I totally agree with this. My face is very clean and very white."

Thinking of this, Shangchuan Mingyu planned to slide down.

There is no need to learn what he has already done.

After sliding down a bit, he found that there was even a remark for this passage.

"It can't be too ugly, and it can't be too good-looking..."

After reading the notes quickly, Shangchuan Mingyu roughly understood the meaning.

If it is too ugly, no matter how clean the face is, it is useless, it will be hated by others.

And if it's too good-looking, even if you don't do anything, it will still be popular.

All in all, just look at the face.

"I'm definitely not the ugly one."

Shangchuan Mingyu is quite confident in appearance.

When he was imprisoned, the women among those people said that their faces were beautiful.

"Wait, too pretty?"

Mingyu Shangchuan realized something, silently walked to the mirror in the bathroom, and searched for photos of celebrities on his mobile phone.

According to the cognition he just learned, celebrities generally look better.

Therefore, you can know whether you look good or not by comparing yourself with celebrities.

First he looked at himself in the glasses, and then at the photos of celebrities on his phone.

"It seems that I look better?"

Since he has never cultivated aesthetics, Shangchuan Mingyu can only judge his own appearance based on his feeling.

"Does that mean that my appearance does not belong to the level of ordinary people?"

Putting the phone back in his pocket, Mingyu Shangchuan was lost in thought.

What should I do if I look too good-looking?

A way has to be figured out to fix this.

He wants to be ordinary, but he doesn't want to be popular.

Chapter 5 Gabriel, do you think I'm pretty?

No, wait a minute, maybe things are not that serious.

What if I made a mistake in my judgment.

Shangchuan Mingyu tried to put things on the bright side.

He has never done any aesthetics before, and mistakes are possible.

Therefore, he still has to refer to other people's opinions.

So, who should I turn to?

"Student Shangchuan, what can you do for me?"

As soon as Gabriel opened the door, she saw Shangchuan Mingyu standing in front of her, holding a beautifully wrapped gift box in her hand, with a very serious expression.

"Ah."

Shangchuan Mingyu nodded.
