Crossover anime, Hachiman's childhood friend's growth diary

But in the end, won't we still have to go to Kyushu?

By sheer coincidence, Hachiman and his family were going on a trip to a place that was similar in direction, but according to a later message from Mr. Hachiman, their destination was a place called Miyazaki Prefecture.

Because he was going to be gone for a week, with his parents' help, Hachiman packed all his important things into his suitcase.

The next day, the temperature rose to 35 degrees Celsius, and according to the weather forecast, the Kyushu region was actually cooler than the Kanto region.

Around nine o'clock in the morning, Hachiman's parents took Komachi to the airport by car, while Hachiman himself waited at home for a while and soon heard a knock on the door.

"Hachiman, it's me!"

"coming."

As I quickly opened the door, a wave of heat rushed out. Ms. Xiaoba was dressed in a cool outfit today, wearing a cream-colored sleeveless top and blue jeans, giving her a stylish and elegant look.

"Hachiman, let's set off when you're ready."

"it is good."

After only a short while outside, Hachiman felt like he was about to die from the heat, and as he pulled his suitcase out the door, he was suddenly struck by the deadly chirping of cicadas.

"So hot!"

"Stop complaining, get in the car, there's air conditioning up there."

"Ah."

Hachiman hurriedly put his luggage in the trunk, but to his surprise, there were two small suitcases in addition to his own.

Looking ahead, two little heads popped out.

Good morning, Hachiman Hikigaya.

Good morning, Hachiman!

The two voices belonged to Nagasaki Motoyo and Nishimiya Shoko respectively. Hikigaya should have realized that since it was a school-organized event, it was normal to run into people he knew.

He blinked and couldn't help but ask:

"Good morning. By the way, isn't Ijichi here? I didn't expect that guy to miss such an outdoor activity."

"I heard that Xiaohongxia is going abroad for summer vacation," Nagasaki Motoyo said, then looked at Hachiman with concern, "Hachiman-kun, are you alright? You're covered in sweat."

"No, it's just due to my constitution."

Hachiman wiped his sweat with a tissue from his pocket and silently walked towards the passenger seat.

At this moment, Teacher Xiaoba suddenly got out of the car and opened the trunk door.

"Hachiman, I'll have to trouble you to sit in the back this time. The trunk of this car is too small."

"Ugh?"

Before Hikigaya could answer, Koba placed a blue suitcase on the passenger side, taking up almost all the space.

Left with no other choice, he opened the back door and crept up into the car.

"Excuse me."

"It's okay."

The three elementary school students weren't too crowded sitting in the back, but Hachiman always felt that his arm might accidentally bump into the girl next to him.

Waaah, I didn't mean to!

To divert attention, Hachiman coughed and asked:

"Speaking of which, did your parents really agree to let you go to such a far place as Kyushu?"

"Mom heard that Hachiman would be going along, so she readily agreed."

Nishimiya Shoko looked over and replied with a smile in sign language.

"So that's it."

Although I promised to take good care of Nishimiya Shoko for the next three years, I should at least let her rest properly during her holidays!

Hikigaya couldn't help but complain in his mind.

187 Hikigaya and Travel

On the other hand, Nagasaki Motoyo thought for a while and gave a reason that left everyone completely confused.

"Because of my work, my mom was going to Kyushu on a business trip, so she signed me up for this summer camp. I was also thinking that this way I could be closer to her."

Hikigaya wondered if the child had some misunderstanding about the phrase "a little bit away".

"Hachiman, could you please fasten your seatbelt before flirting with a girl?" Mr. Koba, who was starting the car, said politely. "Otherwise, if it gets caught on camera, I'll be in trouble."

Hey, where's the flirting?

"Feel sorry."

Hachiman fastened his seatbelt expressionlessly, then heard the rumble of the engine as the car moved forward.

Looking at the scenery rushing past the window, he couldn't help but ask:

Are we going straight to the airport?

"No, we'll meet at the school first, and someone there will take us to the airport."

Teacher Xiaoba didn't turn around, focusing intently on the road ahead.

About ten minutes later, the car slowly stopped at the school gate. Mr. Koba was going to park the car, so Hachiman and the others took their luggage and headed towards the teaching building.

Directly in front of them, a blue bus was parked, and under the shade of a tree next to the bus, more than twenty primary school students were gathered together noisily.

Upon closer inspection, Hachiman quickly discovered that these elementary school students came from different classes across three years. Their luggage had already been loaded into the bus, and with the driver's help, the three of them also managed to stuff their suitcases inside.

After waiting for a while, Teacher Xiaoba soon walked out of the parking lot.

"Thank you for your hard work, it's so hot and you still have to pick up the students."

The person in charge of leading the team was an elderly middle-aged teacher.

He was wearing a white baseball cap, a common sight in golf, and his polo shirt was soaked with sweat because of the heat. He walked unsteadily, giving the impression that he might fall at any moment.

Seeing this, Teacher Xiaoba quickly went over to help the other person up.

"Haha, old people are useless. They can't stand outside for long."

"Director, why don't you get on the bus first? I and the other teachers can take attendance."

"That's troublesome. Young people are great."

The middle-aged teacher glanced gratefully at Teacher Xiao Ba, then shakily climbed onto the waiting bus.

"That's not fair, teacher! We want to get on the bus too!"

Naive elementary school students wouldn't understand the plight of an old man with one foot in the grave. When they saw a teacher board the bus early, they started protesting, refusing to stay out in the sun any longer.

Seeing that the temperature was rising, the other teachers did not insist any longer and quickly called out the names before letting the students get on the bus.

"Hachiman, come sit here."

Hikigaya was thoughtfully seated next to Mr. Koba, while Nagasaki Motoyo sat with Nishimiya Shoko.

After taking his seat, he secretly glanced behind him and saw that the two little girls seemed to be communicating with each other in sign language with great interest.

"Hey, you dare to look around even with your teacher around? Hachiman, I suggest you behave yourself this trip."

When Hachiman's cold words reached his ears, he quickly turned his head away.

"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean."

"You really have no self-awareness. Fine, the teacher knows that boys your age are very energetic. How about I switch seats with one of those guys over there?"

"No need, this position is perfect for me."

Hikigaya sneered, rested his head on the back of the chair, and then closed his eyes.

About forty minutes later, the bus stopped in the airport's dedicated lane, and the elementary school students filed out. Teacher Xiaoba and a few others managed to maintain order, but then they almost encountered an accident during the ticket check.

"Hachiman, would you be interested in being the captain of this summer camp?"

Teacher Xiaoba suddenly extended a strange invitation.

"Don't joke around. Do you think I'm the kind of person who's suitable to lead others?" Hachiman chuckled. "If you asked me to lead, I'm confident I could lead everyone astray."

"Fine, whatever you want."

After a pause, Hachiman continued, "..."

"Teacher Xiaoba, could I take a look at the activity schedule for this summer camp?"

"no problem."

Mr. Koba took out his phone and locked the screen onto a list. Hachiman glanced at it and roughly memorized the schedule for the seven days.

"Thank you."

"Any questions?"

"Well, it's nothing. I was just thinking about what reasons I could have to stay in my room and rest."

Hikigaya spoke frankly.

According to the schedule in the form, almost all the activities from the second day onwards were outdoors. Hachiman didn't want to go outdoors in such hot weather, and he didn't want to play house with these kids either, so he started thinking about how he could stay in the room the whole time.

"Hmph, then take your time to think it over. If it's convenient, you can let the teacher know. The teacher doesn't want to go out either."

The two exchanged a glance and then burst into laughter in unison.

When it was time to check in, a large group of primary school students walked into the ticket gate, and once they boarded the plane, they occupied an entire space.

The ordinary passengers next to him didn't seem to mind, but Hikigaya sneered inwardly, "Thank goodness the flight time is only an hour and a half. If it were a long-haul flight, you'd be in for a world of hurt."

Around noon, the plane arrived at Bougainvillea Airport in Miyazaki Prefecture.

I don't know if it's because of my body, but I felt slightly dizzy. It eased up a bit after I landed. Then I had to take a train and didn't get to my resting place until about 2 p.m.

Most of the day was spent on transportation.

"I really want to go home..."

One person dragged their luggage into the hotel where they would rest for the night. Hachiman collapsed onto the tatami mat, while the other students showed no signs of fatigue and clamored to go for a stroll around the area.

"Hachiman, are you alright?"

Nishimiya Shoko looked over with concern and held the notebook up in front of her.

"No, I'm fine. Let me take a nap."

"Ah."

In order not to disturb Hikigaya's rest, Nishimiya Shoko gently closed the door to her room after leaving, thus isolating herself from the noise in the corridor.

Not long after, the door was pushed open again.

"Hey, can't a man just get some rest?"

He muttered a complaint under his breath, looked up, and saw that the person who came in was Nagasaki Motoyo. Hikigaya quickly sat up.

188cm tall, blonde with twin tails

After tidying up his messy clothes, Hachiman looked towards the doorway.

"Is there something you need, Nagasaki-san?"

"Um, Shoko-chan said you're not feeling well."

With a hint of concern in her pale gray eyes, Nagasaki Motoyo carefully examined Hachiman Hikigaya and, finding that the other's complexion was not bad, felt a great weight lifted from her heart.

She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, walked up to Hachiman, and continued:

"Also, the teacher asked us to gather in the hall in five minutes. If you're not feeling well, I can ask the teacher for leave for you."

"Ah, I'm fine, don't worry."

"...Well then, I also brought some water. If Hachiman-kun doesn't mind, you can..."

"Oh, no need, I brought my own."

The girl's tone was somewhat eager, so after rejecting her, Hachiman actually felt a sense of guilt.
