The Exorcism Tale of Hachiman

"Ah, I knew it would turn out like this..."

Ignoring the sounds around him, Hachiman Hikigaya looked at Yukino Yukinoshita and Yui Yuigahama standing beside him, his face filled with helplessness.

Their appearances could be considered one of the reasons he didn't want to bring them along.

After all, middle school boys just starting puberty are completely unable to resist the looks of these two, not to mention Yui Yuigahama has an amazing figure...

Standing next to the two, Hachiman Hikigaya, who should have been just a passerby, was now receiving extra attention.

"Little Qi, why is everyone looking at us?"

Being suddenly stared at by so many people, even someone as strong-willed as Yui Yuigahama couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.

Almost instinctively, to avoid being seen by others, Yui Yuigahama pulled Yukinoshita Jin's arm and hid behind Hachiman Hikigaya.

Suddenly, Hachiman Hikigaya, who was originally just an incidental visitor, became the focus of everyone's attention.

"Sakura, hasn't she come out yet?"

He completely ignored the stares that were directed at him.

Hachiman Hikigaya took out his phone, glanced at the time, and frowned.

Could it be that, as he feared, Sakura, as a transfer student, was being bullied by her classmates?

Sakura knows some magic herself, and with Illya looking after her, she should be fine...

Just as Hachiman Hikigaya was getting a little anxious because Sakura hadn't shown up yet, a group of children walked towards the school gate from the school building.

"elder brother!"

Sakura, who was suffering from being surrounded by her classmates, suddenly brightened up when she saw Hachiman Hikigaya waiting outside the school gate.

She pushed through the crowd and ran toward Hachiman Hikigaya, then threw herself into his arms.

How was your first day of school?

With a slight smile on his face, Hachiman Hikigaya casually ruffled Sakura's straight, jet-black hair before taking her hand and turning to introduce her to the two women.

"This is the younger sister Sakura that I mentioned before."

"Sakura, right?"

From afar, Yukinoshita spotted Sakura surrounded by a crowd, her face aloof, yet she would reveal her true feelings to certain people.

Perhaps because of their similar personalities, she felt a certain fondness for Sakura from the first moment she saw her.

After Hachiman Hikigaya introduced Sakura to Yui Yuigahama, Yukino Yukinoshita immediately knelt down and spoke to Sakura in a gentle tone that surprised the two people beside her.

"Um, who are you, big sister?"

"Yukino Yukinoshita, your brother's classmate, please take care of me from now on."

"And me, and me!"

Seeing that Yukino Yukinoshita had already started talking to the cute little sister whom Hachiman Hikigaya had just taken in, he was still standing there like an idiot.

Unwilling to be ignored, Yui Yuigahama immediately approached the two of them and greeted Sakura.

"My name is Yui Yuigahama, and I'm also your brother's friend!"

"Hello, Yukinoshita-neechan and Yui-hama-neechan!"

Looking at Yui Yuigahama's enormous breasts, Sakura felt a great sense of crisis rising in her heart.

However, on the surface, she greeted the two with a faint smile.

"Mmm, so cute~"

Seeing Sakura's obedient appearance, Yui Yuigahama couldn't help but cup her face in her hands and become infatuated.

"Hey, Yuihama-san, please control yourself!"

This is at the gate of another school!

Moreover, the onlookers were mostly elementary to middle school students...

Showing an expression like that of a lovesick woman can cause immeasurable damage to their fragile hearts!

"While it's definitely a bit exaggerated, it's undeniably cute..."

Not only Yui Yuigahama, but even Yukino Yukinoshita felt her heart beat faster when she saw the smile on Sakura's face.

Chapter 274 I still remember

Because Yuihama's house was on the way home for Hachiman Hikigaya, after picking up Sakura, Hachiman Hikigaya temporarily left her at Yuihama's house, planning to first take Yukino Yukinoshita back to her apartment and then come back to pick her up.

"Did something happen over the weekend?"

Neither Hachiman Hikigaya nor Yukino Yukinoshita are people who like to talk.

Hachiman Hikigaya originally thought that this silence would continue until Yukinoshita arrived at her apartment, but unexpectedly, while waiting at a traffic light, Yukinoshita suddenly broke with convention and started talking to him.

"It's nothing. I only have two days off, and I also have to deal with Sakura's matter. What could possibly happen to me?"

"lie."

Yukino Yukinoshita exposed Hachiman Hikigaya's lie without hesitation.

She stood quietly, her body slightly turned to the side, her cool eyes fixed on Hachiman Hikigaya's eyes.

"........."

Hachiman Hikigaya turned his head away from Yukinoshita, avoiding her gaze, and said:

"Nothing really happened."

"The change in your demeanor doesn't lie."

As she watched the traffic light across the street change from red to green, Yukino Yukinoshita moved forward while explaining the loophole that allowed Hachiman Hikigaya to be seen through.

"You seem completely different today compared to last week. Your eyes are much sharper now..."

It's a good thing that Hachiman Hikigaya has changed and is no longer as carefree as before.

However, considering the deeper hidden identity of Hachiman Hikigaya, the change that makes him serious is probably not a good thing.

"It's all taken care of, so don't worry about me."

Knowing that Yukinoshita asked this question out of concern for him, Hachiman Hikigaya gave Yukinoshita a slight smile.

"It's just concern for the safety of our members. Since you say it's alright, then it's alright."

Upon hearing Hachiman Hikigaya's words, Yukinoshita's fair ears blushed slightly.

Somewhat annoyed that Hachiman Hikigaya had so easily guessed what she was thinking, Yukinoshita quickened her pace.

"Hey, wait for me! Why are you suddenly walking so fast?"

Seeing Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly quicken her pace, Hachiman Hikigaya, not understanding why she would suddenly accelerate, quickly jogged after her.

A few minutes later, after picking up her pace, Yukino Yukinoshita, panting heavily, arrived at the bottom of her apartment building.

"So, if you're not in good physical condition, don't walk so fast..."

Looking at Yukino Yukinoshita, who was slightly out of breath and had beads of sweat on her delicate forehead, Hachiman Hikigaya's face was filled with helplessness.

This guy clearly knows he doesn't have enough stamina, yet he still walks so fast.

Could it be that he said something wrong that made her angry?

"My body isn't that weak. This level of exercise is still within my control!"

Hearing Hachiman Hikigaya portray herself as quite weak, Yukino Yukinoshita retorted defiantly.

"Yes, yes, now that I'm at your apartment building, I'll be going now."

Having successfully delivered Yukinoshita to her destination, Hachiman Hikigaya, having no intention of arguing with her over such a trivial matter, gave her a perfunctory reply and then turned to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Watching Hachiman Hikigaya's retreating figure, Yukino Yukinoshita instinctively called out to him.

"Anything else?"

Hearing Yukinoshita's call, Hachiman Hikigaya stopped and turned around in confusion.

If I call him over in this situation, could it be that I want to invite him up for a chat?

How is this possible?

If it were Yui Yuigahama, there might be a chance, but standing in front of him now is Yukinoshita.

She should have politely thanked him for safely taking her back to her apartment and then said something nice like "see you tomorrow."

“I accidentally found your certificate and took it back to my apartment before, so let’s take it back this time.”

The moment Yukino Yukinoshita called out to Hachiman Hikigaya, she felt a pang of panic.

But she quickly forced herself to calm down and came up with the perfect reason to call out to Hachiman Hikigaya.

"A certificate?"

Hachiman Hikigaya blinked, his eyes filled with confusion.

Given his dislike of participating in various activities and competitions, would he really have something called a certificate?

"Second place!"

Seeing that Hachiman Hikigaya had already forgotten about the award, Yukino Yukinoshita smiled and kindly reminded him.

"A national essay competition, huh...?"

The call beneath the snow undoubtedly successfully awakened the unpleasant experience that Hachiman Hikigaya had buried deep in his memory.

It was a national competition, and he even got second place to just one other person, but the only one who surpassed him was that woman, Yukinoshita...

"Then excuse me."

Coming to his senses, Hachiman Hikigaya, filled with frustration, nodded and followed Yukinoshita into the upscale apartment.

Standing in the elevator, smelling the shampoo scent emanating from Yukinoshita's hair beside him, Hachiman Hikigaya recalled the scene he witnessed when he and Yui Yuigahama visited Yukinoshita's apartment last time.

Your sister shouldn't be here this time, right?

The image of Haruno's big smiling face flashed through his mind, and the scene of scarlet high heels, black stockings, and disheveled clothes reappeared before Hachiman Hikigaya's eyes.
