Chapter 442
She didn't think that was what it meant.
But that's just how Hachiman is; he only cares about the final result and hopes for a relationship based on marriage.
On this point, Hiyori and Japan agree.
If there's no future, it's better not to start at all. Otherwise, no matter how sweet the process is, the more bitter it will be when you're alone.
"So..." Since the topic of romance had come up, Shiina became a little more interested. "Will Hachiman ultimately choose Ichinose or Kushida- san?"
"It should be Ichinose," Hachiman said. "Although I think either one would be fine."
But Ichinose is more alluring, right?
Yes.
Who could resist Ichinose?
Then.
That evening, Hachiman received a call from Kushida.
"May I go to your room tonight?"
When he received the call, Hachiman almost threw his phone away.
Because Kushida is probably being cute.
I thought she wanted to vent her emotions, but it turned out she came to his room?
"Why, why are you suddenly saying that?" Hachiman asked warily.
"Oh, come on—" Kushida's voice was as cute as ever. "Because most of the holiday is over in a flash. I'm really worried."
Are you feeling uneasy?
Are you worried about not having enough time?
Or is it...?
Hachiman immediately realized what was happening.
This is because once the holiday is over, it's the new semester, everyone will become a second-year student, and then... the first-year students will arrive.
This may naturally include younger students who know about her dark past.
So Kushida is asking for help.
"If you're asking for help, just ask for help. Why are you acting all cute?" Hachiman said. "You scared me!"
Grass.
Kushida almost lost her composure in her room.
She was slightly dissatisfied.
Since it's Hachiman, this straight guy, rejecting her, does that mean he's already been captured by Ichinose?
Indeed.
Ichinose is better than her in many ways.
This also put pressure on her.
But.
Losing so easily, and then being threatened by younger students or even possibly expelled, is not what she wants.
"Wait a minute!"
With that, Kushida hung up the phone first.
Then he looked around the room and finally opened his wardrobe.
You need to dress up cutely.
If you were forced to sign the marriage registration form with Hachiman because you had no choice at the beginning, then the authenticity of that form is not guaranteed.
She might not be selected before graduation.
If she's the only one who chooses this option, then there's no need to worry. If anything happens, Hachiman Hikigaya will definitely protect her.
But now there's Ichinose... Although she still has Horikita as an option, she doesn't fully trust Suzune Horikita's abilities.
Therefore, he still needs to rely on Hachiman Hikigaya.
In particular, during their last solo encounter, Hachiman Hikigaya had already mentioned that he might switch classes in two years.
So when she's in a different class, her danger level increases dramatically.
And now,
The opponent is Ichinose.
It is very strong.
But now she was genuinely a little unconvinced. It wasn't like she couldn't take down Hachiman Hikigaya.
Outside of school.
Hachiman's Family.
"Ahhhh—"
What are you doing upstairs?
Hearing the noise, Hachiman's Mother went upstairs and then saw her daughter kicking the bed like a carp.
"Komachi is relaxing her mind, Mom, don't worry about me," Komachi Hikigaya said.
"..." Hachiman's Mother. "Indeed, your brother sent a large sum of cash over some time ago."
"I never expected him to have such a talent," Hachiman's Mother said.
Although the family dotes on their daughter, the son thinks that raising her in a normal way is fine.
However, this son turned out to be so outstanding.
No, no, no.
By observing her mother's expression, Komachi knew what the other woman was thinking.
But.
Komachi isn't concerned about how much money her brother has made; rather, Komachi originally thought that given his personality, he might have to rely on her to support him in his old age.
Now that her brother had seized the opportunity and won over a girl who was willing to marry him, she decided to make it a reality.
So I got a few marriage registration forms and sent them over.
But.
Onii-chan, what's wrong with you?
The person who came to visit was another girl's brother!
The other person said that you are already dating a girl named Suzune Horikita at school.
You ended up signing someone else.
You have the potential to be a womanizer.
Komachi suspects that she led her brother down a path of no return.
On the other side...
Chiba.
Why do I have to go to Advanced Nurturing High School and start from the first year?
"And."
Yukino Yukino found it extremely unacceptable.
I had already completed a year of high school, but my older sister made me repeat the year and go to a designated high school.
She felt like she was being manipulated.
"I don't think I need to go to that place."
"My Academic Ability is not low. I can get into the university I want based on my own Academic Ability," Yukino said. "I don't need the free admission, no entrance exams, and backdoor recommendations that the school advertises."
"Yukino."
But the older sister kept smiling.
"That school invited me before, but I didn't go. Now I'm returning the favor."
"And."
"Did you gain anything from Soubu High School? And you're underestimating that school now; you'll only suffer a great loss," the older sister said coldly. "Or is it because I haven't been to that school that you won't go either? You're still the same as before, always following behind me, trying to imitate me."
!
Yukino Yukino felt as if she had been struck by a blow.
"Yukino, don't be stubborn." At that moment, an elegant woman in a blue kimono walked over.
Ah.
Seeing her mother being asked to come out, Yukino knew that she couldn't refuse.
"Advanced Nurturing High School, huh?"
Meanwhile, at Yuihama Junior High School, a cute girl with brown hair is in the principal's office.
The principal recommended a school to her.
She has a bad reputation; she's been accused of stealing her friend's boyfriend and then trying to attract men's attention.
So she became the enemy of all the girls in the class.
Although the guys will still talk to her, it will only make the girls think she's more like a slut.
However, only she knew that she was wronged because being cute easily won the favor of boys, which made her the target of jealousy and led to her being falsely accused.
So she studied desperately, determined to get into a high school with a high deviation score and escape this garbage circle.
But now, there is a school that is even better than Soubu High School, a school that all students want to attend, right in front of them.
"Are you going?" the principal asked. "Our school will only recommend one student to apply."
"And it's a full boarding school."
"So you have almost no chance of getting out." The principal was still kind, and said a lot.
As for the Iroha Isshiki...
"Go!"
Going to Soubu High School would allow me to leave behind Reina and the others who don't do well academically.
If they go to Advanced Nurturing High School, then Reina and the others won't be able to get in.
It was a clean circle for her, a place where she could start a new life.
And the White Room.
"Number 1, and number 2."
After receiving the order, the instructors immediately located the two White Room student from the fifth cohort.
"You are very lucky to have been selected."
"You will be sent to Advanced Nurturing High School to experience student life. Of course, the mission objective is to expel Kiyotaka Ayanokoji. Kiyotaka Ayanokoji is there, and he even pretends to be an ordinary student."
"But let's go out first and receive the knowledge to connect with the outside world."
