Hikigaya Hachiman is still in the dark

I had used the machine before, so I was not particularly unfamiliar with operating the cash register. Next, it was time to work part-time.

"Well, here's to a successful first day at my flower shop!"

"Oh..." Yuigahama, who was sitting on the table with a glass of wine in her hand and full of energy, received weak responses from me and Yukinoshita.

"Really? Xiaoqi and Xiaoyukino, why are you so listless? Wasn't today a great success?" Yuigahama looked at us with dissatisfaction.

“I’m more curious about how you keep your energy!”

"Yuigahama, what is the structure of your body? I'm so tired today that I don't want to move anymore." Yukinoshita said as she lay down on the table and gasped for breath.

Just how weak is this person's physique?

But to be honest, I'm really tired today. Even though my job is just to be in charge of the cashier, I'm still too busy to handle it. I feel like I'm about to collapse at the cash register.

"very tired!"

"No objection." Yukinoshita agreed weakly.

"Really, Xiaoqi and Xiaoyukino are too weak."

No, it's absolutely because you are too strong. This is totally not a level we can keep up with.

Yuigahama ignored us and drank a glass of juice.

By the way, although we clinked glasses, what we drank was actually juice. I have vowed not to drink anymore, and Yuigahama also seemed to hate alcohol. When Yukinoshita mentioned alcohol, she looked at me warily, and then immediately rejected the suggestion.

At that time, there was absolutely no bad idea in Yukinoshita's mind towards me. No matter what, Yukinoshita would not think of me as a man who committed a crime under the influence of alcohol... Hehehe... After drinking a glass of juice, Yuigahama put down the glass, and her expression suddenly became serious.

"But, I really didn't expect that it would really be successful." Yuigahama said while looking at me and Yukinoshita with emotion: "Thanks to Xiaoqi and Xiaoyukino, my flower shop was able to open smoothly, and it's even better than I imagined. I am very grateful to you Xiaoqi." Yuigahama said with her head down and her hands on her chest.

Yukinoshita and I looked at each other and smiled.

"It seems that you have self-awareness, Yuigahama, and know that you haven't done much."

"That's true. You seemed to appear in strange clothes when I came home, right? After all, you are the owner of the store but you are useless!" Yukinoshita and I blurted out words to attack Yuigahama almost at the same time.

"Really, Xiaoqi and Yukino..." Yuigahama said and wanted to stand up to refute, but Yukinoshita beside her reached out and grabbed Yuigahama, and I also stood there looking at Yuigahama.

"But you are indispensable. You will work even harder in the future. You are really amazing! Yuigahama, it is amazing that you have the idea of ​​starting your own business!"

"Well, in the future, you have to keep working hard like you are doing now."

"Xiaoqi, Yukino..." Moved by the words between Yukinoshita and me, Yuigahama looked like she was about to cry.

"Crying isn't something a boss should do, right!"

"Hmm!" Yuigahama rubbed her eyes after hearing what Yukinoshita said. Then, she regained her energy: "I'll trouble you guys again from now on."

"No, I just came here to help you because the store is opening today." Yukinoshita gave her the first blow.

"Me too. After all, I still have my own job." I followed up and gave Yuigahama a second blow.

Then, Yuigahama suddenly became depressed again. Can you please not let your emotions be so easily aroused by others? Hey!

"You can do it, right, Yuigahama? It was the same before. If you work hard, you can do it too." Yukinoshita did not let go of Yuigahama's hand and comforted her.

Yuigahama looked at Yukinoshita, who was thinking about something, and finally smiled.

"Yes!" Yuigahama answered firmly.

After that, Yuigahama can take this as a starting point and keep working hard. If she continues to move forward step by step, Yuigahama will definitely be able to realize her dream.

"By the way, Yukinoshita, what is the surprise you mentioned?"

"Huh? Didn't you notice?" Yukinoshita looked at me in surprise: "What a stupid person you are!"

Am I being despised again?

"Of course this is the surprise I mentioned." Yukinoshita stood up, lifted the two ends of her skirt with her hands, and turned around. Because it was a Christmas dress, the skirt was lifted up by the slow air flow and formed a beautiful circle in the air. My eyes were unconsciously attracted to it.

"Of course a costume like this is a surprise!"

"Huh?" Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean...

"Look, wasn't it always Yuigahama before? But now, it's me who's wearing it as the most beautiful girl in the academy. Isn't this a surprise for a fungus like you?"

What the hell is this guy talking about?

"Wait, Yukino-chan, what do you mean by that?" Yuigahama couldn't help but stand up. "Is it not okay for me to say that? I don't think I'm any worse than Yukino-chan!"

Indeed, one part in particular...

"Ah, Yuigahama, people like you are called btxx!"

I actually said it out loud...

"certainly not!"

Then, the two of them started arguing non-stop on the spot.

Is this the surprise? But rather than this, it must be something else!

It’s really great to be able to stay like this.

I took a sip of the juice. Although it was cold, I felt a warm current flowing through my body.

In the future, life will definitely...

When I woke up the next morning, I slept a little longer because I had no work to do. Although I slept a little longer, it was only about an hour longer than usual. As expected, it is difficult to change a habit. For example, a person who likes to study said he would have a good rest on the weekend, but went to the library early the next morning.

What a dirty nerd... I opened the door, walked through the apartment, and came to the living room.

Once again, I didn't see Yukinoshita and Yuigahama today? After carefully observing for a while and reconfirming that there was no one in the apartment, I showed a very happy expression.

Chapter 216 Isshiki-chan is really cute

Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve been able to stay leisurely in the apartment alone. Now my time can be completely regarded as free time!

I whistled in joy, and I saw some bread and milk on the table, with a note next to it.

"Xiao Qi, Xiao Xueno and I are going to the store. Breakfast is ready. If it's cold, you can heat it up a little before eating... Have a good rest!"

Yuigahama, really... it's okay if you don't heat up the bread and milk, right? Even for breakfast, there's no need to heat it up.

But, today is free time anyway, so of course I can’t start like this, the breakfast you made is out of date! What I’m going to eat next is the breakfast I usually eat when I’m alone at home!

Looking at the living room with great momentum, I thought for a while and then quickly ran to the refrigerator. After shouting loudly, I opened the refrigerator door.

"Instant noodles, confirmed."

"MAX Coffee confirmed."

"Yoshi!" After reporting all the work like a scout, I took out instant noodles and a can of MAX coffee.

Pour hot water into the instant noodles, then go wash up. When I get ready and come out, the noodles are almost ready.

"I'm eating!" After taking apart the chopsticks and saying these words, I couldn't wait to start tasting the food.

Ah, the long-lost taste! It has been a long time since I have eaten such delicious food!

I took another sip of MAX coffee. It was really great. I haven't indulged myself like this in a long time.

If I think about it carefully, ever since Yuigahama came to find me at school, I have basically been living a busy life, so I rarely have the opportunity to do what I want to do quietly like I do now.

After enjoying Hikigaya's special breakfast, I stretched and lazily lay on the sofa.

I haven’t been so relaxed in a long time. Today I’ll read a book, watch TV, watch a few videos, and play some video games. Let’s end the day happily!

Well, I haven’t had such a comfortable life for a long time!

While I was still cheering, my laptop suddenly made a message alert sound.

"Huh?" I looked at the notebook on the coffee table in the living room in confusion. I clearly turned off the notebook last night. Did someone turn it on this morning?

It is indeed possible. My notebook and Yukinoshita's are always kept together. It is possible that Yukinoshita picked up the wrong notebook when she was dazed when she woke up in the morning. Thinking of this, I moved to the front of the notebook and opened the message.

When I saw the sender was Isse, I didn't want to read it at all. Novelists always consciously avoid their own editors. Well, this is also the instinct of being a novelist!

"Good morning, senior, don't you think the weather is nice today?" Is this just a normal greeting? Just ignore it. If you don't reply to the message, even if someone asks you about it later, just say that you didn't notice it. Well, this is the correct way to deal with it based on my life!

Besides, editors have no other reason to approach light novel writers except to urge them to submit their manuscripts.

Well, I continue my pleasant day.

The phone rang. I turned on the phone and saw that the caller was Yi Se. I quickly switched the phone to silent mode and threw it aside.

Well, sometimes people make the wrong call. It's scary. How can people be so forgetful nowadays? You have to remember the phone number well.

I also need to turn off my laptop. The notification sound has been ringing non-stop since a while ago! Maybe I got infected with some strange virus while I was reading the information...

Well, after doing all this, the room returned to silence.

That's right, um, um, next I'll just read quietly and end this happy day.

"Ding-ling!" A very discordant sound suddenly came from the quiet living room.

The sound just now seemed to be the sound of the doorbell... After careful consideration, Yukinoshita and Yuigahama have the key so they won't ring the doorbell. Then, who are the people who know about this apartment?

Niwa was here yesterday, but it is impossible for him to be here now. Well, the Christmas activities have just ended, and they should be resting now.

She knew about Haruno, but if Yukinoshita was not here, Haruno would basically not come, so this option could be eliminated.

Who knows what will happen next? It seems that Isshiki, Ai Shang and the editor-in-chief came here not long ago.

It was such a coincidence! I told my address to the person I shouldn't tell for no reason. It was so scary!

Calm down, Hikigaya Hachiman, even if that's the case, the person outside the door may not be Isshiki. Even if Isshiki could do this...how could he do this, hehehehe...

I tiptoed to the door and looked through the peephole at who was coming outside.

If it's the same color, I can naturally pretend that I'm not at home, and then continue with my happy life, but if not, I have to show my hospitality skills.

Through the cat's eye, I saw the visitor. He had long, flowing, soft blue hair and was wearing a cool-looking white business suit. Even through the cat's eye, I could clearly see the person's aura.

Is it Kawasaki?

If I think about it, Kawasaki does live in the same building as us, so it's only natural for him to come visit us occasionally. I've been so busy lately that I almost forgot about it, but I can't get along well with my neighbors.

I opened the door and was about to say sorry, then Isshiki jumped out from behind Kawasaki.

"Surprise! Senior!"

Hmm, Isshiki-chan is also very cute today, and she is very energetic...

"This person has been pestering me, saying he doesn't know the way. Now that he has found the way, I'll leave first. By the way, Hikigaya, I've been very busy recently so I didn't come to visit you. If we have time later, let's get together again."

After saying this, Kawasaki turned around in a very cool manner and quickly disappeared from my sight.

"senior."

"Ah."

"That kind senior is gone too."

"Ah."

"I was very worried when I first came here, and it was great to get help from that senior. Although we only made chocolates together on Valentine's Day in high school, he is really a good person who can help me."

"Ah."

What's going on? Why am I so cold? I'm about to break out in a cold sweat. Does the electric heater also take a holiday during Christmas?

"Compared to that, some people's behavior is really excessive, isn't it?"

"Ok?"

Having said that, Isseki is as cute as ever today. She is wearing a white collarless sweater with a black warm coat on the outside that highlights her figure. As for the lower body, she is wearing black trousers to keep out the cold. The overall style looks very mature and sexy. She is worthy of being Isseki. Her dress is still impeccable.

"Senior, don't you think you should do something?"

"Ah."

Isshiki's smile is very beautiful. It's amazing that she can keep such a gentle smile even when threatening others. How can such a beautiful smile make people feel so scared? I feel like I'm in Antarctica now, that place where even penguins can hardly survive!

"So, Senior?"

"Ah."

What a happy day! I feel so sorry for myself if I don't go out in such weather. I just wanted to stay in my room all day. I really don't know how to be grateful! I don't cherish the gift from God. In such weather, of course I should go out to play with my lovely schoolmate.

"Isise, please wait for me for a moment." My expression was uglier than crying. The corners of my mouth twitched so much that I felt like I must have a tragic expression on my face.

"Yeah." Isshiki's smile is so healing and makes people feel extremely comfortable.

"Only one minute."
