A youth story of a passerby at the end of the world

It means that at least it can be managed.

“There’s an Eastern proverb: Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.”

"Hehe, I think mother would rather keep Yukino-chan under her nose."

"That's right, otherwise you sisters wouldn't both be studying at Sobu High School, and Miss Haruno is studying at a nearby science university."

This is a provocation, hoping to create a conflict between the positions of Yukinoshita Haruno and her mother.

After all, being sent to this high school influenced by the Yukinoshita family is itself a kind of "restraint".

What's more, Yukinoshita Haruno was attending a university nearby, why? Yukinoshita Yukino was the top student in her grade at Sobu High School, a key school in Chiba City.

Then the sister who is better than Yukinoshita Yukino only goes to university in Chiba. With her grades, she can go to any of Tokyo University, Waseda University, or Keio University.

Because the University of Tokyo is used by ordinary people to cross classes, but Yukinoshita Haruno doesn't need it at all!

What she had to do was to gradually take charge of the household affairs, which meant it would be more convenient for her to be kept by her side.

The Yukinoshita family is a famous local family, a powerful family rooted in this land. As the heir to the family, Yukinoshita Haruno does not need top-notch academic qualifications or connections at all, while other families are all prepared.

"..."

"If Miss Yang Nuo wants Yukinoshita to be independent, then don't take her away. If she goes back, she won't become a canary, and will be well protected. If you are worried, how about Miss Yang Nuo watching over her personally?"

"Pfft..., I see." Yukinoshita Haruno suddenly became much quieter. She looked at the sky where red and blue intertwined into purple.

"Would you like a drink?" Uesugi Genshin took out two bottles of whiskey from under the chair.

"Huh~, are you trying to get me drunk so I can talk to you?"

"Isn't it the same for you?" And it doesn't necessarily matter who gets drunk first.

"I heard from Hayato that you can drink."

"Hahaha..." Uesugi Genshin laughed without minding, "I... just simply want to drink. This is for sharing, so do you want to drink?"

"drink!"

Chapter 74: Accept or Reject

The two thick glass whiskey bottles clinked together as they took their first sip.

"Not as good as champagne." Yukinoshita Haruno commented.

"After all, it's only sold in the supermarket. The price is not more expensive than what Miss Yang Nai drinks."

"The drinks we usually drink aren't that expensive. If you want some, I'll bring them to you next time." She still had some in stock.

"it is good."

Yukinoshita Haruno held the bottle mouth and shook it in her hand. The clear liquid swirled in the bottle. "Well, can I ask what you think of Yukino-chan?"

“Very reliable.”

She looked a little tipsy. "Not in that sense. I was asking, do you like Yukino-chan? Look, she's such a cute kid."

"Snow... just let it stay white."

"Hmph~" Yukinoshita Haruno tapped his nose, "Then you better stay away from Yukino-chan."

She continued to "cheers" with Yukinoshita Haruno, "Is it really okay to interfere with your sister like this? Is this a TV melodrama?"

Yukinoshita Haruno laughed, kicked her long legs, and swayed, "Hahaha~, you know that's not what I meant, are you interrupting me?"

"Yes, yes, I promise to treat Yukinoshita like everyone else." There's no difference in treatment, right?

"Well, I'm still looking forward to it. Yukino-chan being able to..." Yukinoshita Haruno didn't finish her words, nor did she seem to intend to continue.

Uesugi Genshin asked again: "So you want to come to our side?"

"Eh~, are you so greedy? You just want me to join your team." Yukinoshita Haruno let out a small burp.

Uesugi Genshin explained seriously, "It's not a subsidiary, but an alliance, a union as an alliance. If you want, I can give you my position as vice president."

Yukinoshita Haruno shook her head and said, "Forget it~, I don't want to be with Yukino-chan. If there are two Yukinoshitas in the student union, it will cause trouble for Yukino-chan."

Uesugi Genshin suggested, "How about being a consultant? The Chiba Self-Help Committee's ambassador to Sobu High School. With the Yukinoshita family standing behind him, even an idle person wouldn't say much. Instead, they would want to curry favor with him."

In this case, you will be bringing in capital and becoming a new "oligarch".

"Hahahaha, then let me see your sincerity first."

There was no promise or rejection.

-----------------

Hachiman was finally freed from the long queue. There were too many people coming to heat up canned food, so to be on the safe side, they moved cans of beef, yakitori, tuna, sardines and saury.

There are basically no bombs in these categories, but it is not certain for others. The cans are also very small, only two knuckles high and less than three knuckles high, the size of the palm of a hand.

But together with the four bags of rice that were also brought back, it was enough to feed more than 300 people in the school.

He glanced at Saki Kawasaki who was busy over there, and he had not forgotten his promise to Komachi.

You must not easily forget what you said to your sister, you must do what you said.

Doing a little is also doing.

Just start by inviting someone to dinner.

"Hey~, Kawasaki." Hikigaya Hachiman walked forward and greeted him?

Kawasaki Saki, who had just put down what she was holding, turned her head and asked in confusion: "Huh? What's wrong? Not enough food?"

"No, I just want to know if we can... together..."

Ah~, he is so lame.

He even started stuttering when speaking. This shouldn't be the case. It was completely different from what he had rehearsed in his mind.

Someone shouted over there, "Kawasaki, come over here and help."

"Okay." After shouting over there, Kawasaki Saki smiled and said without noticing: "Ah. Sorry, I'm busy now. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get back."

"......Yeah, okay." Hikigaya Hachiman stood still.

Komachi, did you see that?

It’s not that my brother doesn’t work hard.

A surprised voice came from behind him, and he looked back.

"Ah, isn't this Hikigaya?"

I saw Kaori Orimoto carrying the same food as him, walking with a group of students wearing the uniform of Seaside High School.

"Sorry, I'm a little..." From a distance, I saw her smiling apologetically at the classmate next to her.

Then Orimoto Kaori came running over briskly, "Hikigaya, do you want to eat too? Do you want to join us?"

"Hmm? Ah...your friend?" Hikigaya Hachiman looked at the student from Seaside High School who was still standing behind her and looking at her.

"I won't be with my classmates. Ah, although Hikigaya is also my classmate, hahaha, super funny." Orimoto Kaori smiled happily as if she had thought of something.

"Hey, let's sit over there." Kaori Orimoto saw an empty table and ran over.

"oh oh."

After sitting down, the two began to eat.

"Hikigaya, have you decided which club to join?" Kaori Orimoto heard some rumors; her classmates told her.

"what......"

Posting official documents should be his job, but he hasn't had time yet. Doesn't she know that she is the secretary of the Student Union?

"... follow the instructions of the superiors."

"Really?! Hikigaya needs to make a decision quickly. If he's slow, the circle of people with good relationships in the department will be fixed, and there won't be room for Hikigaya. Hurry up." Orimoto Kaori thought for Hikigaya Hachiman.

"Ah..., if you say so, then there is no reason to be anxious. Thank you, Orimoto." Hikigaya Hachiman thanked him.

"Well... in that case, do you want to come with me, Hikigaya?" Orimoto Kaori's eyes suddenly became vague.

Hikigaya Hachiman, who was eating with his head down, didn't see it and complained, "The club you want to join must be the extroverted kind, the kind that's full of liveliness."

"No, it's the Discipline Committee. Mr. Hiratsuka came here specifically to say that he hopes students from Kaihin High School will join as well. It would be best if they are sociable and easy to talk to. Oh~, I was recommended by my friends." Kaori Orimoto smiled bitterly, stroking her fluffy short hair.

"Disciplinary Committee? That's great, it's very suitable for the discount."

People who are popular are quite suitable for this job, and everyone will give her face.

Although Ye Shan often does not have time to take care of things, because of his good reputation, other people will not have any objection to his holding the position.

"Yeah, it's hilarious." Kaori Orimoto put her hand on her mouth and chuckled, "So, do you want to join us?"

"No,...I really don't mind being alone."

"Ah~, I know, Hikigaya often walks alone in school these days, it's funny, but I can't do that."

So that's why he was invited to dinner?

"Oh, oh. Because of that, it's fine for me to eat alone, but it's better not to eat with others. Everyone is watching us."

Orimoto couldn't see because she was sitting opposite, but the students from Seaside High School sitting behind her all looked over here one by one, as if they were looking at a precious video.

Wow~~, how strange! I'm sure you all think this way, and it will be confusing.

"Huh?" Orimoto Kaori was speechless.

"..."

“…Ah, yes.” Kaori Orimoto’s voice became much more depressed.

"..."

"I'm sorry! ... I didn't do that just now. I think I made you worry. No..., that's just who I am."

Although Kaori Orimoto still looked as happy as usual, I could sense her seriousness, "Hikigaya, please eat with me from now on."

“It has nothing to do with friends in other circles.”

"Huh?" This time it was Hikigaya Hachiman's turn.

"It's fun to be with Hikigaya, so I..."

...Hmm.

"...Well, if you don't mind, then I don't mind."

"Yes." Kaori Orimoto smiled happily, and she was as outspoken as ever.

But at some point, she seemed a little different from before. Is this the growth that he and Hyun Shin talked about?

In the naivety that can sometimes hurt people, there is more self-reflection that can be seen through.

At some point, there seemed to be another person beside him. Hikigaya Hachiman looked up and his hands trembled with fear.

At some point, Saki Kawasaki came over and looked down at him with the same sharp eyes as usual.

"Hello~" Behind her was Ebina Hime, "Yeah~, Saki Saki and I finally finished the cooking club work."

"Ah, um." Faced with the oppressive feeling of Kawasaki Saki crossing her arms, Hikigaya Hachiman lowered his head.

"Hey~, then do you want to come over for dinner together?" Kaori Orimoto invited with a smile.

"Yeah, okay~" Ebina Hime also replied with a smile.

Saki Kawasaki didn't say anything, just nodded.

Wow...this guy has three cute girls around him.

This is how the people around see the situation in the center.

Chapter 75: JK is not wrong

"what are you doing?"

Hachiman, who originally came to discuss what to do tomorrow, saw this scene after entering the door.
