The lonely Hikigaya Hachiman wants to become the king of mystery novels

"Mr. Hikigaya, I think your appearance today will surprise many people."

The driver also noticed Hikigaya Hachiman's clothes. He had never seen him dressed like this before.

"Thank you for the compliment. After all, this is my first time visiting the Yukinoshita family, so naturally I have to dress more formally."

Hikigaya Hachiman replied.Of course, there is another reason, that is, after he went to Yukinoshita's house, he had to sit upright for a long time out of etiquette. If he wore a tight-fitting suit, Hikigaya Hachiman, who had not received relevant training, might not be able to hold on for a while. , so a loose kimono became the first choice.

The driver's driving skills are very good and the speed is moderate.After a ride that made Hikigaya Hachiman very comfortable, the luxury car stopped smoothly in front of the Yukinoshita mansion.

Through the car window, Hikigaya Hachiman noticed an imposing woman standing at the door. He judged that this was Mrs. Yukinoshita.The other three members of the Yukinoshita family have already met him. Only Mrs. Yukinoshita and Hachiman have not yet met, so she chose to greet him at the door in person.

Hikigaya Hachiman picked up the gift with his left hand and stepped out of the car. Mrs. Yukinoshita who was standing at the door greeted him with a smile.

"Hello, Hikigaya-kun, I am Mrs. Yukinoshita. On behalf of the Yukinoshita family, I welcome you."

Mrs. Yukinoshita said her greeting and extended her right hand to Hikigaya Hachiman.She looked at the boy in kimono in front of her with surprise. She didn't expect that Hikigaya-kun, who was only 16 years old, already had the unique temperament of a writer.

"Thank you for your welcome, Mrs. Yukinoshita. I have always wanted to visit your house, and today I finally got my wish."

Hikigaya Hachiman replied respectfully.Mrs. Yukinoshita's hand was very smooth to hold, as if time had never left any trace on it.This is maintenance that only people of this status can do.

Hachiman followed Mrs. Yukinoshita into the main entrance, passed through the wide courtyard and narrow corridor, and came to the main hall door.

"Go in and sit down wherever you like, Hikigaya-kun. I still have some things to deal with tonight, so I'll excuse you."

Mrs. Yukinoshita said to Hikigaya, bowed slightly and left.

Entering the main hall, only Yukinoshita Yukino was sitting here. She saw Hikigaya Hachiman and showed a surprised look.

"Teacher Hachiman, are you really here? I thought my sister was joking with me."

Yukinoshita Yukino said with some disbelief.

"Originally, I thought I was going directly to the venue, but your sister called me and told me that Mrs. Yukinoshita wanted to see me. It just so happened that I had been planning to come here for a visit this year, so I came here in advance. .”

Hikigaya Hachiman explained.Without thinking much, he sat down next to Yukino and placed the gift on the table.

"So that's it... By the way, Hikigaya-san, please wait a moment while I go make tea."

After saying that, Yukino hurriedly stood up and left, putting her cell phone on her cushion before leaving.

"Hello! Senior Hikigaya, you're already here. Wait, junior, your outfit is too subversive. Why didn't you show it to senior before?"

As soon as Yukino left, Haruno entered the main hall and saw Hikigaya Hachiman sitting here in a kimono, and asked in surprise and surprise.

"Well, it's the new year soon, so I need to make some changes. And sitting in a suit or something, it's very uncomfortable just thinking about it."

Hikigaya said honestly that he and Haruno never needed any twists and turns, they were always straight forward.

"Haha, is that so? Junior, you are thinking too much. As distinguished guests in our family, we need to sit upright. You can sit however you want. Mother will only worry about you feeling uncomfortable and will not care about you. sitting position."

Yukinoshita Harano said with a smile.Just as she was about to sit directly next to Hikigaya Hachiman, she found a mobile phone clearly placed on the cushion. The corner of her mouth twitched and she moved to the other side to sit.

"So, Yukino was here just now?"

Yukinoshita Yono suddenly asked.

"Yes, senior sister. When I entered the room just now, your sister was the only one here. When she saw me coming, she went to make tea."

Hikigaya Hachiman replied.

"Damn it, Yukino got to appreciate such a beautiful new image of Mr. Hachiman first..."

Yangno thought with some resentment in his heart.Her dear sister even occupied her seat. She had learned the skills of a college student before graduating from junior high school.

At this time, Yukino also made tea and came back. She was originally happy, but after seeing her sister, she instantly returned to her original cold expression.

"Senior Yukinoshita, when you go to college next year, will you still be a day student?"

Hikigaya Hachiman started looking for a topic.

"Yes, Junior. But there is no need to let the driver at home pick me up. I have already obtained my driver's license. After the entrance exam is over, it's time to buy a car. I can take you for a ride then, Junior ."

Yukinoshita Yono replied.She was already imagining the scene of her junior sitting in her passenger seat.

"What a waste, sister. We all know that you can definitely go to Dongda University, right?"

Yukino took a sip of tea and said in a calm tone.

"Who says it's not the case, Yukino-chan. How about I leave it to you to help me make up for my regret of not being able to get into the University of Tokyo?"

Yangno looked at his sister with interest, but there was still no wave on her face.

"I will be admitted to the University of Tokyo, but not to make up for anyone's regrets, but for my own goal. Don't you think so, Hikigaya-san? So many literary giants in Japanese literature came from the University of Tokyo, so that must be your goal as well. "

Yukinoshita Yukino asked Hikigaya Hachiman confidently.In her opinion, Hikigaya-san is a man who wants to become a literary giant, and his ambition must be very lofty.

"Well, Yukinoshita-san, what should I say? I actually prefer to go to a school closer to home. Chiba University is pretty good, at least one of the top twenty universities in Japan... "

Hikigaya Hachiman said a little embarrassedly, he suddenly felt that he was indeed quite worthless sometimes.But in fact, which university he graduated from does not really have that big an impact on him, but which school has a greater impact.

Chapter 75 Hikigaya Hachiman’s troubles with happiness?

"Hikigaya-san, did you make this choice because you wanted to be distracted from your literary creation?"

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't react for a moment. She was still feeling pity for Hikigaya, thinking that he had to divert his energy from studying in order to create literature, so he lowered the university's admission standards.

"My dear sister, he is Teacher Hachiman. Any university in Japan will open its arms and use various conditions to attract him to enroll."

Yukinoshita Yangno reminded.

"Well, it's not that exaggerated, senior. I don't know about other universities yet. At least Chiba University is willing to recruit me after I graduate from high school."

Hikigaya Hachiman corrected.He won't jump to conclusions about things that haven't happened.

"So, Hikigaya-kun...are you saying that even if you could enter the University of Tokyo, you would choose Chiba University...?"

Yukinoshita Yukino asked a little incredulously.Students like her who can only work hard to gain admission opportunities cannot understand that Hikigaya Hachiman has the luxury to choose a school casually through special recruitment.

"Now it seems like this, Yukinoshita-san. University studies are certainly important, but for me, graduating from Chiba University or Tokyo University is almost the same, because I don't rely on this to find a job. That's still Choose a school in your hometown.”

Hikigaya Hachiman knew that Yukino could not understand his mentality, but he still explained to her patiently.

"So... that's it. Although I still can't understand it, everyone has their own ideas and plans. It's not convenient for me to say anything more."

Yukinoshita Yukino's idea is actually very simple. She just wants to continue in the same school with Mr. Hachiman after high school, although they have not graduated from junior high school yet.

At this time, the door to the main hall was opened again, and the person who entered was Mr. Yukinoshita.

"Hello, Hikigaya-kun. Welcome to Yukinoshita's house. My wife's affairs will be over soon. Please wait a little longer."

Mr. Yukinoshita sat on the side of the table with his back to the door, so that only the cushion on the side facing the door was still empty. That was naturally the seat of the owner of the house, Mrs. Yukinoshita.

"Hello, Mr. Yukinoshita. You must have put a lot of effort into preparing for the banquet recently. Last year's banquet was very successful and very enjoyable. I am looking forward to tonight even more."

"Just have fun, Hikigaya-kun. This year's banquet will definitely not disappoint you. By the way, Hikigaya-kun, I have to say that your outfit today is very tasteful. I have also thought about whether to wear it." We wear a kimono to participate in activities, but among our group, we are really a bit unique.”

Mr. Yukinoshita shook his head and said with a smile.He plays more of a loving father role in the Yukinoshita family. He looks no different from the fathers of ordinary families. He is equally talkative and loves his children equally.He is also the only person who can calm Mrs. Yukinoshita's emotions when she is angry.

"Mr. Yukinoshita, how are things going at the apartment? I haven't been there for a while."

Hikigaya Hachiman was asking about the apartment opposite him where Yukino would live in the future.

"In the apartment, most of the furniture in the room is already ready, so there is no need to add any new ones. This is quite convenient. After the New Year holiday, we will check and fill in the gaps again. I think it can be moved in at any time."

Mr. Yukinoshita just finished speaking.Finally and the most famous one, Mrs. Yukinoshita finally opened the main hall door and walked quickly to her seat. When he saw Mr. Hachiman and Yukino sitting next to each other, an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I'm sorry, Hikigaya-kun. I was the one who invited you, but I was the last one to arrive. If there was wine, I might have to punish myself by having three drinks."

Mrs. Yukinoshita joked.This sentence surprised both Yukino and Yangno. They didn't expect that their mother would make such a little joke with others.

"It's okay, Mrs. Yukinoshita. I wish the banquet tonight a complete success. This is a small gift, please accept it."

Hikigaya Hachiman picked up the four wrapped books from his side, put them on the table, and pushed them towards Mrs. Yukinoshita.Yukinoshita Yono on the side looked a little flustered.

"It's really hard for you to worry about it, Hikigaya-kun."

Mrs. Yukinoshita was a little surprised, and then looked at Yangno with sharp eyes.She had clearly told Yangno that since their invitation was a bit tight, she must tell Mr. Hachiman not to bring any gifts.

"My senior sister told me on the phone that I don't need to bring anything. These are the unreleased collector's edition of "Malice" sent by the publishing house a few days ago. They were kept at home and I brought them over conveniently."

Hikigaya Hachiman noticed Mrs. Yukinoshita's eyes, so he helped Haruno out of the siege.When Yukino, who was sitting nearby, heard the content of this gift, her eyes lit up.

"I see, Hikigaya-kun. Our whole family will love this gift very much."

Although Mrs. Yukinoshita is not a fan of Hachiman, she often reads his two published novels in her spare time. Naturally, she is very happy to get the collector's edition that has not yet been released.

"It's an honor, Mrs. Yukinoshita. If you can, don't forget to watch the "Malicious" TV series that started airing at the beginning of the year."

Hikigaya Hachiman also helped NHK with an advertisement.The somewhat dull atmosphere in the room became lively again due to the arrival of Mrs. Yukinoshita.

"Speaking of which, Hikigaya-kun. In the next three years, you will be Yukino's neighbor. My husband and I are usually very busy with work, and we have neglected to take care of Yukino. If in the future, she will be in study and life If there is any problem, I would like to ask you to take care of it a little bit."

Mrs. Yukinoshita said sincerely.In fact, she was extremely caring and concerned about her two daughters. If it weren't for Yukino and Hachiman becoming neighbors, she would go to Yukino's apartment at least once a week, and that would be when Yukino was not at home.

"Of course, as neighbors we should help each other."

Hikigaya Hachiman said a little perfunctorily.Because he noticed that the expressions of the Yukinoshita sisters were very wonderful at this time.

Haruno kept her eyes narrowed and smiled, seemingly decent, but in fact she was staring in the direction of Hikigaya Hachiman.As for Yukino, she had a "No, I can't laugh yet" expression on her face.

Hikigaya Hachiman doesn't know whether he is a blessing or a curse when he has a constant connection with such a pair of sisters.

Chapter 76 Hikigaya Hachiman is caught in the middle

Although the banquet officially started at six o'clock in the evening, as one of the organizers, the Yukinoshita family could not wait until the banquet started.Before five o'clock in the afternoon, the group was ready to leave for the venue. Naturally, Hikigaya Hachiman couldn't stay alone at Yukinoshita's house, so they went together in the extended-length luxury car.

The destination was the same first floor of the company as last year, but this time Hikigaya Hachiman followed the Yukinoshita family to their dedicated lounge, which could also be said to be an office.

"Junior, it's still early for the banquet. If you need it, I will ask the kitchen to prepare some snacks for you first."

The person who spoke was Yukinoshita Yono.She knows that social occasions like banquets are both physically demanding and difficult to eat.People like the Yukinoshita family need to spend a lot of time walking around and socializing, and they always have to eat some late-night snacks after the show, otherwise they may suffer from hypoglycemia.

"That's troublesome, senior. I really didn't eat much at noon. By the way, let's do more. You two sisters also need to replenish some energy. There must be a lot to do tonight."

Hikigaya Hachiman predicted that this banquet would be much busier than last year, so he was not polite, but he did not forget to care about the other party.

If it were the two of them alone in the past, Harano would definitely reply to Hikigaya Hachiman with a witticism like "As long as you are here, my junior, my energy will always be full."But now that her parents and Yukino were around, she just nodded and turned to the kitchen.

Another thing that makes Yangno feel a little bit concerned is that Hikigaya Hachiman said "you two sisters" just now. Although this is just a reflection of the other party's politeness, it also made Yangno realize one thing more deeply: Teacher Hachiman's gentleness and gentleness. I am afraid that I will not only care about her in the future.

Yangno, who was a little depressed by her own mental activities, left the lounge and bumped into Hayama Hayato who was still helping.

Hayama-san originally only met the Yukinoshita family because of his parents' work, and had no obligation to help.But he gradually volunteered to become the tool of the Yukinoshita family, or more directly, the tool of Yukinoshita Harano.

"Sister Yangno, you are here so early. There are still some unfinished things here."

Yukinoshita Harano will not be able to deal with this. The Yukinoshita family is obviously one of the organizers. What Hayama means is to ask the organizers to take a rest while he, an outsider, continues to work hard?

Even someone like Yukinoshita Harano, who has used various means to turn outsiders into his tools for a long time, has no shame at all, and now he feels a little bit inappropriate.

"Mr. Hayama, please go in and rest for a while. You don't have to worry about the rest."

Yangno said to Hayato.

"It's okay, Sister Yangno, I still..."

Hayama Hayato originally wanted to follow Yangono to see if he could be of any help, but before he could finish speaking, Yangono left without looking back.

Hayama Hayato has a very high IQ and EQ.Of course he can understand what Yukinoshita Harano, the radiant young lady, really thinks of herself, but he is still willing to do these things. Maybe even being a dog can become addictive.

"excuse me..."

Hayama knocked on the door of the lounge and said hello to Mrs. and Mr. Yukinoshita.When he was about to turn around and say hello to Yukino, he found a slightly familiar boy sitting next to Yukino. He had a good memory and began to search his memory frantically.

"Hikigaya...classmate?"

Hayama greeted with some uncertainty.If Hikigaya Hachiman was wearing the same dress as last year, Hayama Hayato's memory would definitely recognize him immediately.It's just that Hikigaya Hachiman's appearance is so subversive now that he hesitates.

"Hello, Hayama-san. Time flies so fast. We haven't seen each other for a year."

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at the blond boy in front of him. He remembered that this was the Jiraiya who took the initiative to talk to him at last year's banquet.

He thinks that people with a personality like Hayama-san's life may be very tiring. Hayama-san neither has Harano's self-confidence derived from her own strength and family background, nor does Yukino's aloofness and avoidance of strangers. Aura.But Hachiman won't say it out loud, this is his own choice.

"Yes, Hikigaya-san, I think we can exchange contact information today."

Hayama Hayato responded.He was actually very curious as to why this Hikigaya-san could sit directly in the lounge of Yukinoshita's house, and even sat with Yukino.

"Hello, Yukinoshita-san, long time no see. After March next year, we will be classmates of Sobu High School. Please give us your advice."
