499 Shizuka Hiratsuka: I'm Not Letting You Go Home Today!

After Komachi put the cat into the cardboard box, Yukino began assigning tasks.

She was in charge, with Saika keeping watch in front of the staff room to see if Kawasaki Saki Shizuka Hiratsuka, had come out, Yuigahama guarding the bicycle parking area, and Komachi specifically relaying messages.

Hikigaya stayed near the cat, moving boxes as instructed by Yukino when necessary.

Shuya Yukino made arrangements for him, Shu said, "I'm free to do as I please."

The implication is that he wants to slack off.

"... Then let's leave it at that."

Yukino nodded, signaling everyone to take their places.

Shuya immediately slipped away to rest to the side.

Hikigaya going back to the clubhouse to get water was too far, he bought some drinks nearby.

He left for a while, finished his drink, and then slowly walked back to his original spot.

On his way back, he noticed something strange: Shuya was holding his phone up to the school gate, secretly observing the area.

"What are you doing?"

Hikigaya Strange Path.

"Peeping."

Shuya glance at him.

"?"

Hikigaya peeked out and saw Yukino appear at the door.

She looked around, then squatted down in front of the cardboard box and stared at the cat.

"Ah, this..."

He understood something.

She's a cat lover.

Shuya the Way.

When Yukino went out with him before, she couldn't resist stopping at the pet store.

Now, she couldn't resist anymore.

Hikigaya remained silent, crossing his arms and observing discreetly.

The Hikigaya family's cat lay in the box, looking at Yukino with its round eyes, and meowed.

Yukino couldn't help but open her mouth and say, "Meow~"

Cat: "Meow~"

Yukino: "Meow~"

The person and the cat started meowing.

Shuya recorded the entire process.

Hikigaya asked in surprise, "She likes cats that much?"

Shuya nodded. "The level of madness."

"Who?!"

Yukino vaguely heard their undisguised voices and suddenly stood up and turned around.

Shuya looked at her with a comical expression. "Meow meow meow? Meow?"

"Puff."

Hikigaya was Shuya he burst out laughing.

"..."

Yukino's face was icy. "You took a picture?"

Shuya grinned. "Same as last time."

He was referring to a video he took with Yukino when they went to the pet store. (Chapter 350)

"..."

Yukino glared at him, very annoyed but helpless.

She looked at Hikigaya: "Where did you go? Didn't I tell you to wait here for instructions? You can't even do something this simple? I've already calculated how incompetent you are, but I didn't expect it to be this outrageous. How am I supposed to give you an order that you'd understand, someone whose brain is even less developed than an elementary school student?"

Hikigaya was startled by Yukino's gaze.

She clearly meant, "If you dare say anything, I'll kill you."

Scary.

While Hikigaya remained silent, his phone rang.

He answered the phone.

"Hello, is this your brother?"

"I don't have a younger brother!"

He slammed the phone down.

The phone rang again the next second, and Hikigaya Taishi.

While they were talking, Yukino couldn't resist going over to pet the cat again.

Taishi told Hikigaya his sister that she was allergic to cats, but the plan failed.

"It seems the plan will have to be cancelled."

Yukino sounded regretful because she couldn't pet the cat anymore.

But given the reality, we have no choice but to give up.

So everyone gathered again.

Hikigaya, seeing his sister, said, "Komachi, you can't just give out your phone number to anyone. What if something dangerous happens? You have to be extra careful when handling personal information."

"Komachi, did you hear me? You can't just give out your phone number to anyone, especially if it's a guy."

He repeated it again.

"I know. Komachi knows that kind of thing very well~"

Komachi had no choice but to answer.

Hikigaya nodded in satisfaction, then glanced at Shuya and added, "Also, Komachi, you should pay extra attention to handsome guys."

"Brother, you're so annoying!"

Komachi simply couldn't stand Hikigaya's nagging.

"That's right, I'm such an honest and upright person."

Shuya was also very dissatisfied.

Yukino: "Let's ignore Inoue -kun's joke for now, we need to think of other methods."

Shuya: "?"

Chapter 538, Shizuka Hiratsuka: I'm not letting you go home today!

"Um... should we ask Teacher Hiratsuka to ask her? I feel like there are some things that are hard to say to parents, but maybe they can bring them up with other adults?"

Saika the suggestion cautiously.

Shuya said, "It's impossible for Gorilla to do something at such a high level."

Yukino shook her head. "Inoue- kun, don't get too emotionally involved. Although Teacher Hiratsuka is indeed rude and impolite, likes to use violence, is careless, doesn't have a boyfriend, likes to drink, and has a bad temper, she should, maybe, probably, perhaps is a qualified teacher... Huh? Is that really true?"

As she spoke, she fell into self-doubt:

"... Should we find another adult?"

"Xiaoxue, you're being too harsh on Teacher Hiratsuka."

Yuigahama complained.

Yukino sighed. She knew Shizuka Hiratsuka very well, so she knew many of her shortcomings.

Although Shizuka Hiratsuka toned down her personality somewhat after becoming a teacher, the impression of her wildness from back then will never disappear.

That's a ferocious god who can turn gods and Buddhas into little pancakes with a single punch.

But in the end, she decided to ask Shizuka Hiratsuka to give it a try.

Yukino wrote down a brief summary of what happened to Kawasaki Saki and sent it to Shizuka Hiratsuka via email.

Then everyone waited at the entrance of the teaching building, and soon they saw Shizuka Hiratsuka stride over.

"I understand the situation. Tell me more details."

She smiled confidently.

Yukino then explained the whole story to her.

"Is that so...? Our students working so late at night? This is a serious matter. It's quite urgent, so let me handle it!"

Shizuka Hiratsuka was in high spirits.

Seeing how excited she was, Hikigaya couldn't help but feel uneasy. "Don't hit anyone, okay?"

"I won't."

Shizuka Hiratsuka glared at him, Hikigaya shuddered.

Then her eyes darted around, and she hooked her arm around Shuya's shoulder with a sly grin. "I didn't expect you to be so verbally defiant, but your body is quite honest! You're so dedicated to club activities, you're such a good girl."

"I have always been a diligent, studious, and enthusiastic student who participates in club activities."

Shuya subconsciously rubbed against his shoulder, feeling a soft touch.

Yukino mercilessly exposed him. "Teacher Hiratsuka, you overestimate him. He's been slacking off the whole time."

"... A leopard can't change its spots."

Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded slightly.

"Roll."

Shuya also replied.

Shizuka Hiratsuka released him, raised her chin proudly, and said, "Hmph, now watch me."

She had barely finished speaking when she saw Kawasaki Saki appear.

She was yawning as she walked home from school, seemingly carefree.

"Kawasaki, wait a minute."

Shizuka Hiratsuka appeared and stood in front of her.

"What is it now?"

Shuya he heard Kawasaki Saki's voice.

It's that familiar voice again... Looks like it's not just a random passerby?

He guessed.

Kawasaki Saki's voice sounded a bit like a delinquent's, but Shizuka Hiratsuka was certainly not afraid.

She asked, "Kawasaki, I heard you've been coming home very late lately? Where have you been going, and what have you been doing?"

"Teacher, who told you this?"

"I cannot disclose the client's information. In short, please answer my question quickly."
