My fiancée Yukino

Although Ebina Hina is not bad-looking, her yaoi fangirl tendencies mean that dating her requires a strong heart, as you might find yourself paired with some guy someday.

Upon hearing Hikigaya's words, Tobe Sho immediately retorted unhappily, "What's wrong with that? Isn't Ebina cute?"

"..."

Everyone fell silent. She was indeed quite cute, but her personality and preferences were really hard to handle. Even her friend, Hayato Hayama, couldn't stand it.

Hayato Hayama, seeing that Sho Tobe was completely captivated by Hina Ebina, patted him on the shoulder with a sigh and said, "Yeah, good luck, Tobe."

"I'll do my best!" Tobe Sho said, clenching his fist. "I plan to confess to Ebina during the school trip next semester!"

Luo Bai raised an eyebrow, tapped the back of his ear with his fingers, and turned to lie down.

Making such a decision is basically doomed to failure; in the end, it will only result in the fate of a loser.

Seeing Luo Bai lie back down, Tobu Sho hurriedly said, "Hey, hey, hey! Luo Bai, don't sleep yet! Give me some advice! Aren't you dating Yukinoshita? How should I confess my feelings?"

"Huh? Confessing your feelings?"

Luo Bai hadn't expected Hu Bu Xiang to ask him for help, and turned to say, "As for Yukino and me, we're childhood friends."

They got engaged right away, and their relationship developed naturally without any grand declarations of love. So, I can't help you with that; I suggest you ask someone else. For example, doesn't Hayama often have girls confessing their feelings to him?

Hayato Hayama said with a wry smile, "But I didn't accept either. I've never been in a relationship before. Of all the people here, only you, Luo Bai, have. I can't offer any decent advice. But when it comes to confessing, the most important thing is sincerity. You have to let the other person feel your sincerity. Only then is there a chance of success."

"Oh! Sincerity? I've learned something!"

Watching the two of them working together, Hachiman sighed slightly and lay down as well.

Although he had never dated a girl before, he knew to some extent that it was virtually impossible for Tobe Sho to succeed in confessing his feelings in his current situation.

Although he was a marginal figure in the class, it was clear from observation that Hina Ebina did not have any romantic feelings for Sho Tobe; she simply regarded him as an ordinary classmate and friend.

If you don't build up goodwill, confessing your feelings will have no chance of success.

Unfortunately, Tobe Sho didn't realize this at all, and Hayama Hayato was a nice guy who would never tell Tobe Sho these things.

Hachiman shook his head slightly, showing little interest, and continued playing on his phone.

.........

As the night passed, Luo Bai woke up early even though she didn't set an alarm. After all, she wasn't at home and was sleeping on the floor, which she wasn't used to.

When he got up, everyone else was still asleep. Luo Bai didn't wake them. He quietly made his bed and left the room.

The air in the mountains and forests in the early morning is indeed incomparable to that in the city.

After washing up, Luo Bai took a quick breath of fresh air, did some light exercise, and then went to the resort's cafeteria.

The cafeteria here serves breakfast. When Luo Bai arrived, the cafeteria staff had already prepared breakfast.

Yes, it's all traditional Japanese breakfast: rice, miso soup, tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet), and fish.

It was alright, Luo Bai ordered one as soon as he got there.

Volume 1: Chapter 237 Preparations for the Evening Activities (2/2)

Before they had even sat down and taken a couple of bites, Yukino and the others walked into the cafeteria together, but they all looked sleepy.

"Why, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Covering her mouth and yawning, Shiyu said, "I'm not used to sleeping on the floor, and we chatted too late last night."

Yukino, Haruno, and Mai all nodded in agreement.

Luo Bai said with a smile, "Let's have breakfast first. After that, take advantage of the nice morning temperature and go for a walk. That will make you feel better."

After everyone got some breakfast, they sat down together to eat.

Sitting next to Luo Bai, Yukino drank some miso soup and asked, "Aren't any of the boys up yet?"

"It's only seven o'clock, they should be up by now, right? Yui and the others aren't up yet either?"

Shaking her head, Yukino said, "She's awake, but still lazing in bed."

Well, it's summer vacation, so I can understand. Even if you're here as a volunteer, this job is really quite easy.

After Luo Bai and the others finished breakfast, the others finally got up one after another. The elementary school students also got up at this time and were washing up outside in a lively manner before going to the cafeteria for breakfast.

Hiratsuka Shizuka then came over and told everyone about today's work.

While the elementary school students were having activities, preparations were made for the evening bonfire party.

Then, in addition to the bonfire party, there is a test of courage game where all the high school students have to wear scary clothes and scare people at various points along the way.

Although I wasn't particularly interested, since I was already there, I figured I should still participate.

After the elementary school students were taken to the activity by their teacher, everyone started preparing.

The boys went to take charge of the bonfire party, mainly moving wood and building up the bonfire.

Looking at the logs in the warehouse, each over a meter long and more than twenty centimeters in diameter, Luo Bai said to Hachiman and the others, "Alright, let's start moving them."

After saying that, he picked up a basket of wood and went outside.

Wow! It's so heavy!

Hu Buxiang shouted in shock after picking up a basket of them, but still gritted his teeth and walked towards the square.

Hachiman and Hayama had similar expressions; these logs were indeed quite heavy.

As for Totsuka Saika, with his small arms and legs, no one asked him to help with the moving; instead, they put him in charge of setting up the structure in the plaza.

Half an hour later, all the wood had been moved out, and the next step was to set up the campfire.

Just as Luo Bai arrived halfway there, he saw Tsurumi Rumi appear there, looking at him.

Wiping the sweat from his brow, Luo Bai approached Tsurumi Rumi and asked, "Why are you alone again? Are you on free time?"

Rumi Tsurumi nodded: "Okay, you're free to do whatever you want now."

Luo Bai looked around and indeed saw some elementary school students playing in the distance.

"I still have some things to take care of here. How about you go find Yukino-neechan?"

After Tsurumi Rumi agreed, Luo Bai took out his phone and called Yukino.

Yukino was in the mountains with Haruno and the others when she received Luo Bai's call. She agreed to come over immediately and bring Tsurumi Rumi along.

"Alright, Yukino will be here soon." Patting Tsurumi Rumi's head, Luo Bai asked, "Did you tell them about the suggestion I gave you yesterday?"

Rumi Tsurumi nodded: "I did tell them, but they didn't accept it."

"It was expected. I guess they didn't expect you to do this, and they didn't know how to handle it. It's already very good that you did this. You admit your mistake and correct it, so your future is promising. Don't worry about other things, just focus on doing your best."

Tsurumi Rumi nodded, and then saw Hayama Hayato walking towards them from not far away, so she immediately hid behind Luo Bai.

Hayato Hayama came over and saw Rumi Tsurumi looking at him warily. He scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Um, I just wanted to ask how your relationship with your classmates is going."

Tsurumi Rumi remained warily hidden behind Luo Bai, looking at Hayama Hayato and saying, "It's no use. You can't make me restore my relationship with them like this."

Tsurumi Rumi's words silenced Hayama Hayato.

At that moment, Yukino finally arrived.

"Ye Shan, just give up. Your approach will only make things more difficult for her among her classmates."

As she spoke, Yukino came over, took Tsurumi Rumi's small hand, and looked at Luo Bai.

"Then I'll take her out to play. Come over when you're done with your work."

Luo Bai nodded: "Okay, go ahead. Did you bring mosquito repellent?"

"I brought it. It's with Mai. I'll apply it to her when we get there."

Then, Yukino left with Tsurumi Rumi.

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Luo Bai said, "What, you still haven't given up?"

Hayato Hayama smiled wryly, "She's still a child, after all. She can't keep hanging out with high school students all the time, can she?"

"This is the result of her own choice, and it's the consequence she has to bear," Luo Bai said nonchalantly. "I've certainly told her what she'll face afterward; she might face isolation at school. That's unavoidable, but the important thing is that she doesn't..."

She won't participate in bullying again, but she won't be a perpetrator, which undoubtedly makes her future better. Don't worry about her unnecessarily; this child is much more mature than you think.

"That's true, but I'm still not reconciled."

"So, you've been just being self-righteous all along. Is what you think is good for her really good for her?" Turning to Hayama Hayato, Luo Bai said bluntly, "Isn't it just your self-righteous kindness, satisfying your own sense of justice and compassion? Hayama, many things in this world aren't perfect, like bullying. It's very difficult for perpetrators and victims to return to a friendly state, even if they're just isolated and ostracized, you know?"

After saying that, Luo Bai patted Ye Shan, whose face was pale, on the shoulder and continued to build the campfire.

Hayato Hayama stood there in silence for a long while before finally sighing and going about his business.

Hikigaya and Totsuka Saika watched all of this, but neither of them went over.

Totsuka Sayaka whispered, "Hachiman, Hayama-kun seems quite disappointed."

“That’s normal,” Hachiman said, pursing his lips. “He’s just too much of a ‘good guy.’ He hasn’t even considered what the other person needs. And like Luo Bai said, bullying is the most difficult thing to deal with in school. Do you think Hayama can solve it? He’ll only make things worse. Compared to others, it’s most important to make Tsurumi Rumi realize her mistakes and understand what she should and shouldn’t do. As for making friends, there are many ways. You don’t necessarily have to continue being friends with the people who participated in the bullying, right?”

"Ugh... Okay, I don't know what to do either, I'll just do what you say!"

Seeing Totsuka Saika's puffed-out cheeks, Hachiman couldn't help but blush.

No, if I keep watching, I'm really going to become gay.

Volume 1: Chapter 238 Unexpected Events (1/2)

After setting up the campfire, Luo Bai stretched and then went to find Yukino and the others.

Following the direction Yukino indicated, Luo Bai arrived at a stream at the foot of the mountain. Although he did not find Yukino and Tsurumi Rumi, he did meet the other people.

Seeing Luo Bai approaching, Shi Yu waved happily and said, "Luo Jun, come quickly! There are fish in the water here!"

At this moment, the girls all took off their shoes, rolled up their trouser legs, and started catching fish in the stream, having a great time.

Luo Bai looked around and asked, "Where are Yukino and Tsurumi Rumi?"

"After playing for a while, we went to look for squirrels. It seems Yukino saw one." Haruno stretched out her hands and tried to grab some fish in the stream, but unfortunately, she still couldn't catch any. "Shiro, come help!"

"Why do you guys have this kind of hobby?"

Luo Bai had absolutely no interest. He had already seen the fish by the stream; they were tiny, only about the length of a finger. They were only good for playing with, not for eating.

"Isn't it because they didn't bring swimsuits?" Mai said with a smile. "Yuigahama, Komachi, Miura, and Ebina seem to have brought swimsuits, and they've all gone to change now."

"is it?"

Luo Bai glanced at the weather and said with a smile, "I don't think we'll have enough fun here."

Just then, a slight vibration came from under my feet.

Although it was very slight, Luo Bai still felt it and immediately frowned.

earthquake?

Not like.

Looking in the direction from which the tremor came, Luo Bai noticed that many birds had flown out of the forest in a panic.

Seeing Luo Bai's expression, the girls realized there was a problem.

Shaking the water off her hands, Yang asked, "Xiaobai, what's wrong?"

"I don't know." Luo Bai said, squinting, "But I have a feeling something's not right. Something must be happening in the mountains. Yang Nai, go back to Hiratsuka-sensei and notify the people at the resort to confirm the students' locations. As for Yukino, contact her and tell them to go back. Mai, contact Mato Mokuzu for me. I'm going over there now."

After saying that, he took off and flew towards the mountainside.

The girls trusted Luo Bai's intuition and stopped playing in the water. They immediately came out, put on their shoes, and headed towards the resort, each taking out their phones to make calls.

On Luo Bai's side, after flying to the mountainside, he indeed discovered something amiss. A large area of ​​trees had been destroyed, and this destruction was still occurring intermittently in various places.

This is something that ordinary wild animals cannot do.

With the emergence of a large, bright red tentacle, Luo Bai finally identified the culprit behind all this.

"A ghoul, what a strange occurrence in a place like this. My luck is really bad. I only get to go out for a couple of days, and I still run into something like this."

Judging from the scene below, the number of ghouls must be quite large.

Moreover, Luo Bai seemed to hear the roars of some wild beasts, as if they were fighting.

"That's strange. What kind of wild beast can fight a ghoul to this extent?"

Just as he finished speaking, a huge vacuum wave shot into the sky, startling Luo Bai.
