A terrible metaphor. Childish sentimentality. Even so, he suddenly cared—

This is a struggle between reason and philosophy, and it's really troublesome.

"Maybe... because... I want to try something new... simply out of curiosity?"

Komachi smiled and said, "But if there were no such people, wouldn't there be nothing in the world?"

"Nothing exists?" Hikigaya asked.

"Of course, following the recipe may work well, but adding unnecessary things has already failed... Repeating the cycle over and over again, maybe one day I'll make something better and more delicious than before."

"Like Onii-chan, those novelty desserts they made just for me based on my taste, do they have a recipe?"

Komachi blinked and asked seriously.

"No."

"That's it..."

She shrugged. "So, everyone is curious. Just like you, Onii-chan, who likes peace and quiet, will also create many strange things for me, your lovely sister."

"Then it's just me who likes it. Things that others don't like can't be made with the recipe, Onii-chan."

"Only you can do this, Onii-chan."

Author's words: "Have fun, let's finish this volume soon, soon, soon."

Chapter 186 Anyway, let’s go shopping first?

Do unnecessary things, experience failure, repeat the cycle -

Now, we are together, nothing else, it is because we have gone through countless failures...

So, when we pile up, there is nothing extra—

"...What's that? Komachi, you're suddenly being too philosophical?"

“…I see. So that’s how it is.”

"Ah, is it really that philosophical?"

Komachi looked a little shocked when she saw her onii-chan lost in thought.

"Yes, absolutely. It's pure philosophy. Let's pass it down to future generations as 'An Introduction to Komachi Studies'."

"Oh, is it that exaggerated?"

"Well, in order to ensure that the tradition continues, I'll discuss chocolate production with the editorial department. I'll leave the rest to you."

Well, in order to pass it on to future generations...

Descendants...

Of course you have to create it yourself.

Otherwise, how can it be considered a legacy?

With this thought in mind, Hikigaya quickly walked towards his room...

"Well, that's no problem... Hey, Onii-chan, where are you going?!"

Komachi shouted.

But Qigu's figure had already disappeared before her eyes...

Hikigaya returned to the room, quickly took out his cell phone and called Yuigahama.

The call was connected quickly...

Normally, Yuigahama would greet him first, but this time, Hikigaya spoke even faster than Yuigahama.

Before Yuigahama could even utter "Hello," Hikigaya said, "Hello, Yuigahama? Sorry, something's up. If it's okay, tomorrow—"

………~~…~~~……~…~…

The next day, Hikigaya got up early, washed up simply, and hurried to the subway to the place where he and Yuigahama had agreed to meet the night before.

"Ha, ha, ha...! (running panting)"

“Ha…ha…finally, I made it…”

Hikigaya was leaning against the wall, breathing heavily.

I've been running at full speed since a while ago, and my heart is aching like a rattling bone. No, this isn't just from running.

The current time is 7:10.

There are still 10 minutes left before the appointment with Yuigahama.

It took longer than expected, and coupled with the train activation trap card: Delay, I felt anxious for a moment, thinking I would not be able to catch up.

While adjusting his breathing, he glanced around.

I casually observed the people coming and going on the street: couples, lovers, married couples, middle school students, small groups, mothers with children, couples...

Suddenly I recalled what I talked about with Yuigahama on the phone yesterday.

Tuan: "...Tomorrow?"

Bi: "Well, if possible, I hope you can come out when you have time."

Tuan: "That's possible.... But why?"

Bi: "Uh, how should I put it? I have some things to buy for the event the day after tomorrow, and I hope you can come with me--"

Well, if this had happened before, Yuigahama Bao would have agreed directly and would have been happy.

She won't even ask why?

This time, she hesitated, but finally agreed to come.

However, he would basically not invite Yuigahama, so this was a lie. To be precise, after making the appointment, he checked again what was missing for tomorrow, so it was not a complete lie.

But why does he do such roundabout things?

Because he noticed it too.

If you think about it carefully, there is no need to make things so complicated.

As time presses on, worrying, being confused, anxious, running, and working hard... maybe there is no need for this at all.

If only, if only he could be given some time to speak—

But if you do this...

As if to warm his completely cold hands, as if to wipe away his nervous hands, he reached into his pocket and touched it to confirm.

Feeling.

feeling.

sentimental.

Then, slowly exhale, properly adjust and breathe...

"Aqi!!"

"?"

I heard the cry and turned around, but after seeing the person in front of me, I didn't know how to react——

She smiled at him and said, "Hello."

"Ah, oh."

He was startled and thought he was being spoken to by a stranger. But to be honest, strangers would never talk to him.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting?"

"No, not at all… I just arrived."

Hikigaya scratched his head awkwardly and looked at the girl opposite him. She was wearing a crimson lining, a beige coat, and seemed to have some light makeup on today. She looked quite cute.

"Really? That's good... Uh, eh? Where's Xiaoxue?"

Yuigahama asked in confusion. It was strange that he was the only one here today, as he was the last one to arrive before.

She was always late.

How about today?

"Ah, Yukinoshita isn't coming today," Hikigaya explained.

"Oh, really? Because there's an event tomorrow and things to buy, I thought everyone would come together."

"Uh, well..."

How could he explain this?

Because today's story was completely made up by him.

Just to trick you out.

(There's nothing I can do about it. ...No, what's there? I feel like I've become one of those jerk guys who tricks girls out on the weekends...?)

Why did Hikigaya shudder at the thought?

Anyway, it's a terrifying thought.

It would be better if this kind of thought did not appear in his mind again.

"Well, well, let's just take a stroll first, shall we?"

Author's words: "I'm really in a state of panic. I have an exam next week, and the week after that, and if my students have to stay the week after that, they'll have to do practical training. Maybe summer vacation won't start until July 10th???"

No.187 Cafe

"Oh, ah, well. Speaking of which, what are we going to buy for tomorrow's event?" Yuigahama asked.

"Ah, yes, there are a lot of things to buy."

Hikigaya began to negotiate with Yuigahama, because buying things was basically just a trick to trick her out.

He hasn't made any plans yet, so what should he buy?

I can only buy some things while walking around and see if I will need them tomorrow?

It’s fine if you use it, but if you don’t, just say you should prepare in advance…

that is it.

"...Are you buying a large quantity?"

"No, not really. It's just that there are several different kinds to buy. If I buy them, it will be very troublesome to buy them tomorrow."

"Oh oh~, that was a close call, luckily we found it. Well, let's go buy it quickly."

Yuigahama breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the quantity was too large and the two of them would not be able to move it back after selling them all.

That would also trouble others. It's so hard to get a vacation, so it's better not to trouble others.

"Well, that's fine, but how about we go somewhere first?" Hikigaya suddenly suggested.

"Going somewhere? That's okay...but buying things is okay, right?" Yuigahama hesitated. After all, it was still early, but the focus was still on tomorrow's activities.

"Well, I've already made a list of everything I need to buy. I won't forget about this."

There is nothing to buy, so I won’t forget it.

In this case, there is no need to go anywhere else.

All we need to do is trick Yuigahama away.

"I won't forget this... I believe you on that point..."

But Yuigahama still looked a little worried.
