Not going to push hard on these first days (fever being a reason), so I slept in quite a bit before looking at the problem.

C#

List<int> _LeftList = new List<int>();
List<int> _RightList = new List<int>();

// Fed via File.ReadLines(...).Select(l => l.Trim())
public void Input(IEnumerable<string> lines)
{
  foreach (var line in lines)
  {
    var split = line.Split(' ', StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries).Select(s => int.Parse(s));
    _LeftList.Add(split.First());
    _RightList.Add(split.Last());
  }
}

public void Part1()
{
  Console.WriteLine($"Sum: {_LeftList.Order().Zip(_RightList.Order()).Select(v => Math.Abs(v.First - v.Second)).Sum()}");
}
public void Part2()
{
  Console.WriteLine($"Sum: {_LeftList.Select(l => _RightList.Where(i => i == l).Count() * l).Sum()}");
}
