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

"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Yes, what a coincidence."

Hachiman scratched his head and looked away.

Come to think of it, this shouldn't be the direction of the Ichinose family's residence. I never expected to run into them here. What a blunder.

On the other side, seeing her daughter's lively performance, Su Shi's mother, who was still unaware of the situation, immediately became very attentive and carefully examined the brother and sister in front of her.

"Su Shi-chan, are these two your classmates?"

"Mom, let me introduce you. This is Hachiman Hikigaya, and next to him is his younger sister, Komachi."

"I see."

The younger sister is a very cute child, but because she is still young, she hid behind her older brother after seeing him, a stranger.

As for her brother, he was much more open and looked her in the eye without any hesitation.

However, to be fair, this child's eyes were surprisingly sharp.

Moreover, I feel like I've seen this somewhere before?

Just as Suze's mother was pondering where this sense of déjà vu came from, Hachiman politely greeted the two of them.

"Hello."

"Oh, hello there."

The image of Su Shi's mother was clearly reflected in those dead fish eyes.

The other person was wearing a gray women's suit, and her whole demeanor looked very capable, giving off a strong woman vibe. Hachiman probably just got off work.

In addition, he noticed that Su Shi's mother had slightly wavy black hair with the ends curling up slightly, and her eyes were the same color as Su Shi's.

The last time I visited her in the hospital, I was in a hurry to leave, so I didn't get a good look at Su Shi's mother.

Looking closely now, the two are almost identical, especially their high foreheads.

Hikigaya remembered hearing that the higher the forehead, the smarter one is, and it seems that the Ichinose family must be quite intelligent.

"...Hachigaya-kun, are you injured?"

Her gaze shifted, and Suze quickly noticed the bandage wrapped around Hikigaya's leg, which reminded her of her high jump that morning.

Did Hachiman sprain his ankle too?

And it looks quite serious.

Su Shi had no idea that Hikigaya had participated in the long-distance race, because she had returned to her class before the last race in the afternoon, so she had no idea what was happening at the stadium.

"Ah, it's like this, Onii-chan..."

Before Komachi could speak, Hachiman interrupted her abruptly:

"It's nothing, just a normal accident, don't worry about it."

It's already bandaged up like this, how can anyone not care...

Su Shi murmured to herself.

Komachi, whose combo had been interrupted by Hachiman, was clearly unhappy, so she changed the subject:

"Sister Su Shi, are you going out for dinner?"

"Uh-huh."

"Speaking of which, Su Shi and I haven't decided what to eat yet."

With a worried expression, Su Shi's mother crossed her arms, then squatted down and said to Komachi in a low voice:

"Komachi, what do you like to eat? Tell me so Auntie can give me some suggestions."

Sensing that the other party meant no harm, Komachi, who had originally planned to use Hikigaya as a shield, mustered her courage and stepped out from behind him.

"I……"

Komachi paused for a moment, then said, "I like grilled meat."

Wait a minute, Komachi, it's best to use vague concepts in this situation; there's no need to be so specific.

"Barbecue is a great choice."

After speaking, Su Shi's mother glanced behind them and blurted out instinctively:

Didn't your parents come to pick you up today?

"Yes, they came at noon, but went back to work in the afternoon."

Upon hearing these words, Su Shi's mother couldn't help but want to scold the other person, but then she thought that she herself had not even attended the sports festival, so what reason did she have to blame others?

Chapter 73 But he has a strange father.

"Oh, okay? Would you two like to come eat with us?"

Komachi was somewhat tempted by Souyo's mother's invitation, but after glancing at her older brother and noticing his indifferent expression, she politely declined:

"Auntie Komachi really wants to go, but I'm sorry, Onii-chan and I have things to do at home."

Su Shi's mother waved her hand:

"It's okay, it's okay. You can come to our house to play whenever you have time. Su Shi and I would love to welcome you."

"it is good!"

"Then we'll head back now, Sister Su Shi, see you tomorrow, Auntie."

"Goodbye."

Hikigaya nodded and led Komachi in the original direction, but before leaving, his eyes caught a glaring mark.

what is that?

On the inside of Suze's mother's wrist, there was a dark red bruise. After noticing Hachiman's gaze, she quickly covered it with her hand and gave him an awkward smile.

Several theories about the origin of the bruises immediately came to mind in Hachiman's mind.

No, no, no, this isn't something he should care about; he shouldn't think about it...

On their way home, Hachiman found that for some inexplicable reason, he couldn't calm down his restless mood, and as a result, it took them twice as long as usual to get home.

To get rid of this uncomfortable feeling, Hachiman went to the restroom to splash some cold water on his face, and then said:

"Komachi, would you like to eat something first? Onii-chan will cook it for you."

Because of his work, Hikigaya's parents seemed to be coming home later, so he planned to prepare some simple food in advance to fill their stomachs.

Just as Hachiman walked up to the refrigerator, he heard Komachi say:

"Onii-chan, you just sit still today, and leave the rest to Komachi!"

Hachiman was pleased with his younger sister's bold words, but then decisively refused.

"I'm really happy that Komachi said that, Onii-chan, but we'll talk about cooking when Komachi grows up!"

"Oh, Komachi didn't say she was going to cook, did she?"

"what?"

While Hikigaya was completely bewildered, Komachi used her home phone to call the food delivery hotline and smoothly ordered two cakes to be delivered to her home.

"Dad gave Komachi some pocket money when he left today, so I'll treat Onii-chan to cake!"

Waaah, Onii-chan is so touched, but here's the problem: why didn't I get my share of the allowance...?

Damn it, Old Deng, hurry up and give me some gold coins!

I sat bored on the sofa for ten minutes, and then that phone call came back.

Hikigaya rested his chin on one hand, his body sinking into the soft sofa. He saw Komachi say something to the other end of the landline, and then let out a weak sigh.

"what happened?"

"Onii-chan, the cake shop said their machine seems to have malfunctioned, so they can't deliver."

"Sigh, then we've waited for nothing! We have to make them compensate us!"

"Yes, they said they could give us a 20% discount, but we have to pick up the cake at the store."

Hachiman sat up from the sofa, put on his slippers, and prepared to go out.

"Then Komachi, you can rest at home. I'll go to the store to get it."

"No! Onii-chan, you stay home and rest, Komachi can go!"

"No, no, no, it's so late now, it's dangerous for you to go alone, Komachi!"

No matter what Komachi said, Hachiman disagreed with her going to the cake shop alone to pick up the finished cake, and he also rejected the idea of ​​the two of them going together because it would be inefficient.

After a brief standoff, the two finally decided to let Hachiman go out and get it.

Before leaving, Komachi was still worried about Hachiman's injury, but his legs were only injured, not useless, and as long as he walked slowly, it wouldn't have much of an impact.

In addition, the cake shop is not far from their home; they can get there quickly without even taking the tram.

Come to think of it, it would be great to have a bicycle right now.

If I do well on the next final exam, I'll ask Dad to buy me a bicycle.

With these random thoughts swirling in his mind, Hachiman quickly set off for the cake shop.

About ten minutes later, Hachiman appeared in front of a newly built shopping mall. The cake shop was on the second floor. Although it was his first time here in this life, he was still very familiar with the shopping mall.

However, as Hachiman walked along, he spotted a familiar face in front of the glass window of a barbecue restaurant.

Hey, what a coincidence...

Hikigaya's eye twitched. He seriously doubted whether he had encountered something inexplicable, otherwise why would he run into Ichinose Motoyo here again?

Fortunately, the other party did not discover him this time.

Hikigaya quickly glanced inside and saw Ichinose Motoyo, her mother, and another unfamiliar man dining in the restaurant.

The boy's hair color was the same as Sosei's, and his facial features were also somewhat similar. Perhaps he was Ichinose's father?

Whether it's the father or any other relative, the problem is, the atmosphere at this family gathering is just too strange.

Ichinose Motoyo's parents sat in their chairs like wooden statues, not saying a word, with indifferent expressions on their faces.

Sensing this, Ichinose Motoyo seemed to be trying hard to find a topic to talk about.

Is this child trying to be the glue that holds their parents together?

Seeing this, Hachiman thought to himself.

Upon hearing Su Shi's voice, Su Shi's mother forced a smile and responded with great difficulty, while the other person remained motionless.

Hikigaya had a slight headache, but after standing still for a moment, he started walking again and quickly left the barbecue restaurant.

Frankly, he has neither the interest nor the ability to interfere in other people's family matters unless absolutely necessary.

But seeing the three of them still sitting together happily eating barbecue, Hachiman guessed that their relationship hadn't developed to that point yet.

Hachiman quickly found the cake shop he was looking for. After receiving two pre-ordered desserts from the waiter, he turned and headed home.

Hachiman instinctively turned his face in another direction so he could easily avoid the barbecue restaurant.

However, just as he stepped out of the cake shop, a man who appeared to be Ichinose Motoyo's father happened to pass by.

Oops!

To make matters worse, the two exchanged a glance. Hachiman saw impatience and indifference in the other's eyes, while Suze's father seemed not to care and walked downstairs after looking away.

What's going on? Seriously.

Hachiman hesitated for a moment, then took the dessert and headed in the original direction.

Chapter 74 describes the persecution of Hikigaya.

When Hachiman returned to school on Monday, he could clearly sense that his classmates' attitudes towards him had undergone a huge reversal.

"Good morning, Hachiman?"
