The Hikigaya couple's youthful love story is definitely not a problem.

My opinion? I'm sorry, but I think Hobe is a good person. However, I don't want to date any boys right now, not even when Miura threatened to break off our relationship.

Or rather, how many relationships these days are truly based on genuine feelings? Those guys are just trying to release their pent-up hormones. So no matter what, I will not agree to the Ministry of Revenue's request.

If that's the case, then that would be perfect.

Because I don't need to worry about anything else, I only need to think about how to appease the Ministry of Revenue in the end.

As Hachiman spoke, he seemed completely unconcerned about the impact these things would have on him.

[So, you only care about what your client thinks, and don't care at all what others think?] Hime's expression changed as well. [You just need to cooperate with Tobe for now, and I will cooperate when the crucial moment comes so as not to make things difficult for you.]

— Yui, who had been distracting Hayama by talking to Yumiko, secretly made a gesture to Hachiman, indicating that she could no longer distract the two of them.

Hachiman didn't care whether Hina said anything else and simply took Yukino's phone and handed it to her.

It seems to be really broken; it's inexplicably flimsy.

Yukino glanced at Hayama as he passed by, but ignored him and instead chatted quietly with Hachiman.

Okay, I understand.

Hachiman nodded, looked at Tobe who was the only one left in front of him, and silently walked forward to try to say something to him.

Chapter 118 The Not-So-Naive Ministry of Revenue

"How's it going? It seems to be progressing well?" Hachiman asked in a low voice, pulling Hobe to sit down on the stone steps beside him.

Well, it felt like Hina was still the same as usual. I could talk to her, but as soon as it went on, she would inexplicably end the conversation. Tobe leaned weakly against the stone wall, looking up at the somewhat desolate sky of Kyoto, as if lamenting that his emotional experiences were as cold as the sky.

Tsk.

Hachiman clicked his tongue and shook his head. Just look at this guy, who was like a male animal in heat. As soon as he saw Hina, his eyes turned red and he clung to her without a care in the world. It was as if he had "I want to fight you" written all over his face.

Even so, Hina was still able to talk to Tobe calmly, which shows that she has a good grasp of interpersonal relationships.

At least she didn't deliberately avoid you, right? That means she probably has a good impression of you.

Hachiman offered words of comfort.

Maybe so, but I always feel that Himeko already knows what I want to do.

Even if Hobu is usually slow-witted, he can still tell from Hina's sudden change in attitude.

Wouldn't that be even better? Since she already knows, she can have time to think things over before you confess. Many failed confessions are due to the guy being too sudden. Girls who don't like you enough will instinctively reject you without thinking because of their protective instincts.

Hachiman spoke with a chuckle, looking as if he deeply understood the meaning of the words.

When Kebu saw Hachiman in this state, he felt a surge of sympathy for some reason.

I have a feeling that Hachiman has a lot of experience~ Compared to you, I'm just an ordinary high school student who's nothing.

The Ministry of Revenue's inexplicable sigh annoyed Hachiman.

"I'd rather be a normal high school student! You bastard, you clearly don't know how lucky you are!" Hachiman thought back to his past experiences, a look of melancholy on his face. "I'm suddenly really interested in what happened to Hachiman back then!" Yui, squatting at Hachiman's feet, said with a smile, her face full of curiosity.

"If you want to ask me something, why don't you tell me about yourself first?" Hachiman rolled his eyes, reached out and flicked Yui's forehead hard, almost knocking the squatting girl to the ground.

"I...Is there something wrong?" Yui covered her reddened forehead and turned her head away guiltily, not daring to look into Hachiman's eyes.

With a disdainful sneer, Yui casually mentioned after drinking with him that she had also been ostracized. When Hachiman tried to press her for details, the girl remained silent.

Hmph~ Little Qi is so mean, I'm ignoring you now, Xiao Xue, let's go.

Yui made a face at Hachiman, then pulled Yukino aside to look at the scenery. I'm actually quite envious of Hikigaya-kun; everyone in the class says you're a loner.

But after getting to know you, I realized that Hikigaya is actually no worse than Hayama in terms of interpersonal skills. At least I can't do anything too intimate with a girl like Yui, especially in front of my girlfriend.

The Ministry of Revenue sighed, as if he had suddenly discovered that the timid classmate he had been mocking was the son of the local richest man.

Cough cough... Hachiman coughed, thinking to himself, "How can you compare to me in this situation?"

Let's not talk about that anymore. After all, what's more important right now is what you and Hina are going through, isn't it? Hachiman decided to change the subject and not want to delve any further into this matter.

Ah~ I'm already mentally prepared. All I need to do is give me some advice, and even if I fail, it just means I'm not Himeko's type.

The Minister of Revenue sighed, having already foreseen his fate.

Actually, I'm quite curious, since you already have feelings for someone, why did you still confess? Maybe it's because of an obsession. After all, I'll be a senior in high school next year, and I still need to work hard for the college entrance exam, so I wanted to try confessing before that. If I succeed, that would be great, but if I fail, it'll just be another chapter in my high school life.

Hachiman was immediately helpless. He admired the reason why this guy was pursuing her, and could only silently feel that Hina was not worth it.

Haha~ Just kidding, Hachiman-kun wouldn't actually take it seriously, would he?

I had a crush on Himeko the moment I first saw her. I wanted to pursue her when I was in the countryside during my vacation, but I only just mustered up the courage now.

After all, I don't know what her aspirations are, and we might never cross paths again.

Well, that's settled then.

First, we need to catch up with Himeko, right? Otherwise, nothing will be possible just by sitting here.

Hachiman patted his bottom and sat up first.

OK~ Hikigaya-kun, you've worked hard~ Tobe hooked his arm around Hachiman's neck and punched him in the chest.

Hachiman inexplicably swept some up and found the Ministry of Revenue's actions disgusting.

She calmly shook off his hand and beckoned the two women chatting and laughing beside her to set off.

"Our classmates should be over there on the stage right now, Yukino. Are you going back to your class?" Hachiman asked, looking at Yukino who was holding hands with Yui.

No, I'm not that familiar with them. I'd rather go with Yui.

Yukino tilted her head back slightly and said in a very proud manner.

Seeing the slight blush on his fiancée's face, Hachiman didn't bother to expose this stubborn guy.

Let's go then, but I reckon Hiratsuka Shizuka will cause me trouble again.

Hachiman said with a hint of melancholy.

Yukino looked at his smug, self-satisfied expression and wanted nothing more than to stomp on Hachiman's face.

After thinking about it, he could only sigh silently. After all, he was reluctant to wear shoes, but if he didn't wear shoes, this guy would just look comfortable.

Over the past few months, Yukino has come to a profound understanding of what it means to be shameless.

Looking at the tooth mark on Hachiman's hand, she realized it was the mark she had left for him back in the Service Club.

Perhaps for this reason, Yukino always felt a little guilty when facing Hachiman, so now she just lets him be.

Hachiman, accompanied by two women and a 500-watt light bulb, slowly walked towards the Seisen Stage, which overlooks most of Kyoto.

"Hey, Hikigaya, you've gone too far!" Shizuka Heike said, glancing at Sawa between Yukino and Hachiman with a disgruntled expression.

Chapter 119 Dialogue.

Well... there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that students from other classes are visiting our class in a friendly manner.

Hachiman was so illogical.

Hey, do you think this is some kind of diplomatic event? Do you need to use any official diplomatic rhetoric?

Hiratsuka Shizuka covered her forehead, looking completely helpless, just like Kyouhachiman.

After scanning around, I noticed that both the boys and girls in my class were looking at Yukino with curiosity.

Hiratsuka Shizuka frowned. To avoid causing trouble for these brats, it was best not to get involved with Hachiman too much.

Although she was very unhappy, since Yukino had already come, and considering her relationship with her sister over the years, Shizuka Taira decided not to say anything more.

call.

Seemingly displeased, Shizuka Taira stepped forward, lifted Hachiman's tie, and warned, "Now that Yukino is here, keep an eye on her."

No, if you do that again, don't blame the teacher for being ruthless.

Cough, you can't blame me for this. You know, Yukino usually looks aloof, but she's actually very clingy.

"Yes," Hachiman muttered softly, just like a cat, looking like he had no other choice.

Hey~ Shizuka Heike was immediately annoyed. You have such a great girlfriend and you still look dissatisfied.

Looking at the ugly face of the guy in front of her, Hiratsuka Shizuka almost couldn't resist the urge to kill him with a single blow.

"I don't care whose fault it is. If I see you two together at school again, I'll see if your ribs are stronger or my fists are harder!" Hiratsuka Shizuka said fiercely, gritting her teeth. "If you're not happy, come and fight me." She blew on her fist and said menacingly.

Hachiman remained silent, forced to submit to Taira no Shizuka's fists in a deeply humiliating manner.

Why would someone like this be a life guidance teacher? What was the school thinking, letting such an unreasonable person hold such an important position? Hachiman didn't even consider that with his various twisted logics, even the eloquent Haruno was completely fooled, let alone the even more cunning Taira no Shizuka.

However, Hiratsuka Shizuka has one advantage over Haruno: since I can't argue with you, I won't try to reason with you.

Since you, Hachiman, like generals so much, why don't you first ask my fist what management is?

After the initial violent suppression, Shizuka Heike unexpectedly discovered that this method was very effective against troublemakers like Hachiman.

So Shizuka Taira fell in love with this method; no matter how eloquent you were, you had to obediently listen to her.

Also, buy me a bowl of ramen and bring it to my room tonight, then I won't go out.

After Shizuka Heike finished speaking, she released her grip on Hachiman's clothes, smoothed out the wrinkles, and then walked to the side with a large jug of spring water that she had collected, which she said could bless love.

Why do I have a teacher like this? Hachiman suddenly felt so tired. This Shizuka is usually very approachable, but for some reason, she sometimes acts like she's on steroids.

My condolences. Who told you to have nothing better to do than pick a fight with her? Yukino, the culprit, stepped forward and patted Hachiman on the shoulder, looking like she was instructing a junior.

You still dare to talk? You'll see tonight.

Hachiman said fiercely, "I don't believe you can lock me out when I knock on the door tonight, can you?" "Hmm~ I know what you're thinking, but that's impossible~ I will absolutely not spoil you anymore."

Yukino said with a smug look on her face.

Shout, "If you won't open it, then don't open it! Who's going to level it?"

Hachiman—his face was full of disdain.

So aloof? This is nothing like you, who's always in heat.

Yukino was very puzzled, as this guy was never like this before.

If you don't open the door for me, I don't believe Yui won't open it for me either.

Hachiman glanced at Yumi Yuuko's joking face, then shrugged. He wasn't picky; he'd eat any meat, lean or fatty.
