Hikigaya Hachiman is still in the dark

"Really?" After getting Liumei's approval, Origina sat back in her seat, but her eyes were still looking at me vigilantly.

So, are you the kind of person who would be disgusted with your husband once you have a daughter?

"That's right, Hachiman has helped me to resolve my worries today." Rumi nodded with a smile.

It should be referring to Teacher Tian Xia's matter. As far as I know, Liu Mei is not the kind of person who will quickly forget being treated kindly. When we scared those girls at Linjian College, although Liu Mei had not had much contact with them, she quickly ran in front of us and took those girls away.

I don't believe that Liu Mei didn't care about Teacher Tian Xia, but Liu Mei has a strong sense of Chinese music in her character. Frankly speaking, it's not an exaggeration to say that she is extreme. She will never look back on her decision. If she hadn't met Teacher Tian Xia today, Liu Mei would probably have lived with this knot in her heart for a long time.

"Don't worry about it, Rumi."

"It was Hachiman who helped me. Hachiman, you don't have to say that." Liumei spoke very firmly, with a tone that did not allow for rebuttal.

"Ahem!" Origina coughed softly, "I'm sorry to bother you, but can you tell me why you went to Tsurumi-san's junior high school?"

"I'm so sorry Rumi, Orikusa is more of a jealous person."

"If it's my husband, there's nothing I can do!"

"That's not the case." Origusa slammed the table hard, "Mr. Hikigaya, please don't bring up this matter out of the blue all the time! Also, Tsurumi-san, don't get involved!"

"Hey, it was Origina who made fun of me first."

"That's true. The atmosphere between you and Mr. Hikigaya is indeed a bit unpleasant..." After Orikusa said this, his face quickly turned red and he turned his gaze away embarrassedly.

"You're jealous indeed!" Liumei and I said in unison.

"No way!" Origina protested loudly, and this time, she kept waving her hands.

"How is it? Isn't it interesting?" I signaled Liumei with my eyes.

"That's true, but Orikusa seems very pitiful." This message came from Liumei's eyes.

That's indeed true. From now on, please restrain yourself and don't bully Zhekusa too much.

"It's like this. Just like I told you before, I think the key to solving the problem is to know Niwa's past, so today I accompanied Rumi to her junior high school to learn more about her. Sure enough, I got some information about Niwa."

After hearing about Niwa, Orikasa quickly focused her attention. I briefly told her what happened today, and at the same time, I also focused on telling her about Niwa's changes.

"If that's really the case, it's a little hard to believe." Origina said after listening to everything I said, "If President Niwa has really changed as you said, then I think his transformation is too big."

"Well, that's true. But I always feel that the reason for the change lies with Liumei. There is always a trigger for a person's change. Considering Niwa's performance in the student union and his attitude towards Liumei, I think the key lies in the trigger for Niwa's change, and this trigger is definitely related to Liumei."

"That's right." Origina nodded in agreement.

"Yawata, you are right, but I have no recollection of having any contact with Niwa." Rumi said in embarrassment.

"So, this matter still needs to be investigated, but I believe that the problem can be solved smoothly soon." I vowed that since all the clues are complete, I only need a key to completely uncover the truth.

I had basically explained everything, and I looked at my watch. It was almost time to leave.

"Then let's stop here today. See you tomorrow." I stood up and prepared to leave. When Liumei saw me stand up, she also hurriedly stood up and prepared to leave with me.

"See you tomorrow." Ogusa also stood up and greeted us.

When they were halfway there, Rumi seemed to remember something and turned back to speak to Origina.

"By the way, Orikusa-san, it would be better if we don't talk when we meet tomorrow."

"Eh? Why?"

"Because it will cause trouble for Orikusa-san..." After saying this, Rumi quickly pulled me away.

"Why are you doing this?" After running a long way, I stopped and asked Liu Mei's intention.

"There's no way. If you get too close to me, Origina-san's situation will become very delicate, right?" Rumi looked up, and I looked up too. The stars in the night sky were as bright and dazzling as pearls.

"So, Hachiman, if possible, please find a way quickly. I finally have friends, and I also want to live my high school life well."

"Yeah, no problem."

Under the cover of night, I quietly expressed my truest feelings.

When I came to the school to see Niwa the next day, because I knew his past and after knowing that he used to be a fat man, I always looked at Niwa unconsciously.

"Mr. Hikigaya, what's going on?"

"Ah, no..." Noticing my gaze, Niwa stood up and walked to me to ask, and I answered him with a laugh.

There is really nothing else to do, I just learned a little bit about your past. As expected, this world is very strange. The difference between people is sometimes greater than the difference between people and Peppa Pig. The rest of the creatures in nature are basically determined from birth, but for people, there will be a lot of changes. In the end, people always become surprising.

Wearing a neat and tidy school uniform and neat short hair, Niwa looks sunny. He is not the type with sharp edges, but has a weakened appearance of Hayama. He always has a signature, trustworthy and reassuring smile. Isn't this a living copy of Hayama? It is hard to imagine that Niwa was an unpopular fat guy before.

Chapter 196 Unexpectedly, Tsurumi Rumi and Orisuma Reiko

"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Niwa looked at me with confusion in his eyes, but after all, I was his teacher, so he didn't ask any more questions.

After Niwa left for a while, I calmed down a little, and then my sight drifted towards Haibin High School again, but this time my target was not Niwa, but Rumi who was quietly staying aside.

As for Liumei, she came to Sobu High School today with the student union of Seaside High School. Liumei herself was unwilling to participate in the activities of the student union of Seaside High School, but looking at the current situation, Liumei probably can't find a reason to continue to avoid it, so she has to come to school.

After learning about the incident at Seaside High School's student council, I finally understood the current situation clearly. Rumi was completely arranged to sit on one side of Seaside High School. The seats at Seaside High School were in a straight line, with Rumi on the far left, followed to the right by Orikusa, Niwa, and the other two student council members.

Orikasa seemed to want to talk to Rumi, but Rumi was like a flower out of the ordinary and completely ignored her. Orikasa realized that she was asking for trouble and quickly gave up the idea of ​​talking to Rumi and devoted herself to her work.

Orikusa seemed to be sulking. After all, the two of them had just established a trusting relationship yesterday. But if Rumi suddenly ignored her today, it must have been very sad for her. But Rumi must have her own considerations. There was nothing I could do. I would try to explain Rumi's situation to Orikusa later.

Thinking of this, I came back to my senses and looked at our own Sobu High School Student Union. Hua Nian still did not come to the Student Union Office because the stage play officially entered the final stage. The other two members of the Student Union were still operating their notebooks, working hard, and Ben Chugui was working at her position with a stern face.

She is truly ruthless and has been like this ever since she had a falling out with me.

The situation in the student union office continued like this. When half of the time had passed, I stood up and prepared to help them buy gifts.

Since this is considered work, I didn't ask them what they wanted this time. After all, I have already memorized their favorite flavors. Well, it's really me, Mr. Hikigaya!

Seeing me stand up, Origina quickly stood up and followed me.

"So, why don't you pay attention to me? I'm so upset." Standing in front of the vending machine, Origina complained to me.

Is it true that you still can't understand? Although Origusa is quite careful about Rumi's good intentions, there are still some things that he can't notice.

When I was waiting for Liumei at the school gate, I remember that Origina did call me an idiot, which means that Origina must have seen through the deeper meaning of Liumei's behavior. If he still can't see through it now, it seems a bit unreasonable.

Is she the type who can't make calm judgments when it comes to herself or her friends?

"That's not the case."

"Then what's going on?" Zhecao refuted me unwillingly.

Could you please be a little nicer in your tone? Respect for elders, respect for younger ones! Do you understand?

Thinking of this, I thought about how Origina treated his father before. It seems that this guy really doesn't understand this aspect...

"You are a very special person in the student union now. You basically have no conflicts with anyone, right?" I explained to Origina, and she nodded after hearing what I said.

"You can get along well with the other members because they treat you as a friend, but once you get too close to Liumei, think about it, if your original friends get too close to their enemies, what do you think they will think? What will you do?"

"This..." After hearing what I said, Origina obviously began to waver. If you put yourself in her shoes, it is indeed true. To be honest, most people are not reasonable creatures. Once you get too close to her enemy, no matter what the reason is, she will unconsciously regard you as her enemy.

Orikusa is currently in the student council, and can be considered to be in a state of having both sides, which means that Orikusa's current situation in the student council of Seaside High School is very delicate and dangerous. If those two girls knew that Orikusa took the initiative to approach Rumi, the conflicts in Seaside High School might be exacerbated. In that case, I think Niwa will definitely notice it, and then things will become much more complicated.

Of course, these are secondary. The most important thing is that Liumei is worried that if Origina gets too close to her, she will be ostracized by other student union members.

"Can you understand?"

"I understand..." Oregusa's voice sounded a little lost. She even forgot to take the goods out of the vending machine. I sighed and put the things Oregusa bought into the bag.

"Don't think too much. This is your choice to stay in the United States. Everything will be fine in the future." Looking at Origina who was still in a daze, I comforted her.

"Yeah." Origina answered me weakly, and I didn't know what she was thinking. After returning to the student union office, Origina kept looking at Rumi with an expression that seemed like she wanted to say something.

What an easy-to-understand kid.

I thought this in my mind, but there was nothing I could do to help, so I just lowered my head and continued to do what I wanted to do.

Soon, today's meeting ended. After both parties said thank you for their hard work to each other, they quickly left the student union office.

"Um, why are you here?"

Standing in front of the school gate in the bleak autumn wind, I looked at Zhecao standing beside me and didn't know what to say.

"Isn't this normal? If you do something to Liumei, wouldn't that be terrible?"

Don't just assume that others are criminals. Also, yesterday you called Rumi "Tsurumi-san", but today you're calling her "Rumi". Isn't that a bit too fast?

"It's up to you."

"Hmph, that's the howling of a defeated dog."

Origina said proudly, holding his chin high.

Please give me back the sympathy I just felt for you because I ignored you in the United States.

"Ori, Origina-san, don't say that about Hachiman."

Oh oh oh oh oh, congratulations to Origina-san, your number one ally has betrayed me! No matter what, I have a very deep emotional foundation with Liumei, you know, Liumei will not betray me easily.

Liumei's words made Origina a little flustered. She looked at Liumei nervously. At this time, Liumei spoke again -

"Hachiman is just a bit of a pervert and an idiot, you can't call him a loser~"

Report, my number one ally has also betrayed me!

"Yeah, that's right." Origina laughed, and then she took Liumei's hand. The unexpected move made Liumei a little at a loss.

"From now on, you can call me Origina or Reiko. It always feels weird to keep calling me a classmate."

"Okay, Origina..." At this point, Rumi paused and looked at Origina awkwardly. The name couldn't be changed so quickly, so it didn't seem strange: "Reiko, aren't you going back with the other two today?"

"I said I had something to do later, and then asked them to go back first." Ogusa said happily.

Because we knew about Liumei, and Liumei didn't want others to know that she and I were too close, we waited until the rest of the student council members left Sobu High School before we prepared to go back together.

Then, an unexpected guest appeared in front of me.

However, looking at her current appearance, she seems to be doing pretty well, which makes people sigh that youth is really good!

Hey! It’s human nature to feel this way. It’s definitely not because I’m old. Yes, yes, yes, that’s it…

We arrived at Orikusa's shop normally. Originally, I wanted to go back early, but Orikusa was very hospitable and asked us to go to her shop. No, what I said was not very accurate. To be precise, Orikusa happily invited Liumei to her shop to taste ramen. At the same time, she looked at me warily and told me not to eat for free.

Such differential treatment is indeed like returning to the Middle Ages and feeling like being a slave.

"Dad, I'm back."

"Oh, you're back!" The boss still looked so energetic. After seeing me, he whistled at me proudly.

"Here we go again!"

"Yes, I'm here again!" I don't know why there was a hint of helplessness in my voice: "But this time, I'm just seeing them off. I still have things to do afterwards."

"Oh, like this."

"Dad, don't bother with that freeloader. If you have anything delicious to cook, hurry up and make it. I want to treat my friends to a meal!"

"Okay, no problem. I'll definitely satisfy your friend."

Hmm, hmm, hmm, please treat me to a meal, what a tempting word.

Honestly, I finally understand why the Orisuma family's ramen shop can't be big. Orisuma is also the kind of guy who doesn't care about anything for his friends. He was complaining all the time before, but when it came to me, I still didn't mean it.

"Then I'll go first."

"Ah."

"Goodbye Hachiman."

Liu Mei carefully pulled my clothes.

"See you."

Chapter 197 Tamasaka Yuuki appears in a different position

After leaving the Orisusa family's shop, I started walking on the street alone.

Although I want to find an opportunity for Niwa to change, a person's past is not so easy to explore anyway. I know what to do, but I have no idea how to explore it specifically.

The personal change must be due to very personal reasons, and this matter is also related to studying in the United States, but the key is that the person studying in the United States has no impression of this at all, so the clue is interrupted!

Teacher Tian Xia's performance makes it seem like she knows nothing. In this case, isn't she completely helpless?

What should I do? Should I go to Niwa's house and ask Niwa? "What happened to you in the past? Come on, we are all men, be honest, tell me everything about you, don't be shy!" Pah, what a perverted ability, how could I think of such a thing? Sure enough, I have been with Mita for too long, and my mind is a little abnormal?

Forget it, I'll continue to look for Teacher Tian Xia today to learn more about Niwa's past. Maybe I can find clues that I didn't notice before, and then understand the whole picture of the matter in one fell swoop, and finally, perfectly solve the incident of studying in the United States.
