The goal of life is to break up all couples

Yamada Ryo, who was not far away, waved at him: "Hey, Songzhi! Aren't you coming to see us off?"

Matsueda Azusa shook his head, putting the thought behind him, and quickly caught up with the group who were finishing up the band, "Why do I always have to see you off? When will you come and see me off too?"

"Huh? Really?"

Yamada Ryo said seriously: "Then I will wait for you at the gate of Sobu High School every day..."

"Then forget it!"

Songeda Azusa lives in Bengbu. Although I know that Yamada Ryo is probably not serious when he says this, it is a bit abstract no matter how I think about it.

Goto Ichiri raised his hand and whispered, "I can also go with you to send Matsueda-kun home, because, because we are family!"

Yamada Ryo turned to look at Goto Ichiri. The traitor had popped up again!

"Pfft!"

Matsueda Azusa clutched her chest. Damn, she felt like she'd been dealt a heavy blow by Pochi-chan. It was clearly a joke, but someone took it so seriously. Looking at Pochi-chan's expression, even Matsueda Azusa couldn't help but feel like an asshole, like the kind who lures children with candy.

Luckily, Hongxia's mother noticed Matsueda Azusa's embarrassment and reached out to give Yamada Ryo a hard smack on the forehead: "What nonsense! We can take the subway to Sobu High School after school. It's already dark that day! Do you want Matsueda-san to wait that long at the school gate?"

“That’s true…”

Only then did Goto Ichiri realize that he had proposed an unfeasible plan without thinking. He immediately fell into self-denial and timidly turned into a pink puddle.

Yamada Ryo put his hands over his forehead, tears welling up in his eyes: "So why did you hit me?"

Hong Xia glanced at her and said, "You were the one who started talking nonsense!"

Yamada Ryo put his hands on his hips and said with a confident tone, "That's because Songeda asked me to see him off."

"Do you want me to go beat up Songzhisan?"

Hongxia’s mother tilted her head.

Yamada Ryo's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Of course it's fake! You bastard!"

Hongxia was dumbfounded and couldn't help but give Yamada Ryo another stab.

Yamada Ryo covered his head and turned to look at Matsueda Azusa: "Speaking of which... Matsueda, what are you going to do?"

Songzhi Zi was bewildered: "What should I do?"

Yamada Ryo glanced behind him: "That's what the girl just said to you."

Songzhi Zi was speechless: "Did you hear all this?"

Yamada Ryo shrugged: "Didn't I tell you long ago that I have very good hearing?"

"Well... to be honest, I don't know."

Matsueda Azusa thought about it, then shook her head. "She actually has a point. But ultimately, I don't really want to cause trouble. Perhaps the so-called 'result' isn't that important to me. If it can prolong my happy, unharmed time, then I don't mind if there's no result at all."

"Well, then don't go."

Yamada Ryo nodded in support.

Songzhi Zi was a little surprised when he heard this: "Huh? You support this? I thought you would persuade me."

"That's not necessary."

Yamada Ryo waved his hand handsomely: "Doing so is her personality, and not doing so is your choice. Taking everything seriously and pursuing a result even if it hurts is indeed very attractive, but it doesn't mean that not doing so is wrong."

"Whatever others say is ultimately just their opinion. Songzhi, just be yourself."

Yamada Ryo looked back into Matsueda Azusa's eyes and said, "Even your indecision and hesitation are interesting to me."

Chapter 207 Yukinoshita Yukino wants to win.

I spent the Sunday doing nothing and spent all my time practicing drums with the Hikiko members.

Early Monday morning, Matsueda Azusa returned to his faithful Sobu High School.

As soon as he entered the school gate, he saw Yukinoshita Yukino who was also rushing towards the teaching building.

This is a very rare scene. Usually, when Matsueda Azusa arrives at school, Yukinoshita Yukino has already been alone in the activity room for a while.

Glancing at Yukinoshita Yukino from the side with some curiosity, Matsueda Azusa noticed that she had a faint layer of dark circles under her eyes. It seemed that she did not get enough rest yesterday, so she was late today.

Yukinoshita Yukino was keenly aware of the gaze and subconsciously turned her head to look over. The moment she found it was Matsueda Azusa, she knew where Matsueda Azusa was looking.

She was in a state of disinterest, and for once, she showed something other than a blank expression. "Thanks to you."

Songzhi Zi took two steps forward and pointed at himself: "Can you blame me for this? It's not like I hung you upside down from the ceiling and played the sound of nails scratching a blackboard in your ears on repeat to keep you awake."

"..."

Yukinoshita Yukino sighed: "You haven't really considered doing such a thing, have you?"

Songzhi Zi glanced away guiltily and changed the subject: "So why are you suffering from insomnia? Is it Yang Nai's fault?"

Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head. "Not really. I just...even though everything is done, now I'm starting to wonder whether I should have listened to your instigation and beaten up my sister."

Songzhi Zi was bewildered: "Huh? No, I saw in the video that you were quite happy beating him up yesterday. Why are you so upset after that?"

“…That’s why…”

Yukinoshita Yukino looked away, looking down at her fist guiltily. "I unexpectedly felt a sense of pride from the bottom of my heart, but I didn't mean to feel that way... and I don't think resorting to violence to solve problems is the right thing to do."

"While I know this rationally, I feel it's refreshing to do so. If I admit this feeling, then what is the point of all the things I've been insisting on doing..."

I get it. Yukinoshita Yukino's struggles are probably about this: Wow! How could I...how could I, Yukinoshita Yukino, be such a person?! I can't laugh. I can't laugh with my teeth clenched!

"That's it? I thought Haruno was causing you trouble again and that you couldn't handle it."

Matsueda Azusa stretched lazily. "To be honest, what you said doesn't conflict at all. Besides, even before, weren't you also not hesitant to use words to attack and belittle others..."

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned and corrected herself, "I didn't use words to attack or belittle others. I was simply stating the facts."

"Common sense says that's called a verbal attack."

Matsueda Azusa also corrected him: "Of course, there's no point in dwelling on this definition. Just think of it as you're just stating the facts."

"But haven't you noticed? Even though you did the same thing, if it were someone else—like a classmate from Sobu High School—you would have no hesitation in stating the facts. But if it were Haruno or your parents, you wouldn't even be able to state the facts."

Yukinoshita Yukino clenched her fists: "...Are you trying to say that I'm a bully?"

Hiss, looking at Yukinoshita Yukino starting to utter onomatopeia behind him, Matsueda Azusa always felt that he might have opened a terrible Pandora's box...

If Yukinoshita Yukino punched him right here and there with her well-trained Aikido fist, Matsueda Azusa guessed that his fate would be even worse than Yukinoshita Haruno's - after all, Haruno had at least practiced Aikido, but he was really powerless.

But Matsueda Azusa was stubborn, even so, he still spoke calmly: "Well... if you put it that way, it does make some sense. But the point is, your verbal attacks will have no effect on those people - you've already realized this, right? Now I'm just pointing out a method that may work on them."

"At least the simplest point is that when you clench your fist, Yang No has to start considering her own words and actions when facing you. Isn't that right?"

Yukinoshita Yukino said subconsciously: "But my sister is actually better at Aikido than me..."

"What are you afraid of? She doesn't dare to beat you."

Matsueda Azusa directly taught the secrets of playing dirty and showing off: "Even if she dares to hit you, do you think it will be you or her who gets scolded if the fight gets to your parents? Even if both of you get scolded, who will suffer the most? Of course, her."

"Besides, even if she's not afraid of this, she still has to consider the reputation of the Yukinoshita family, right? In order to prevent the news of the Yukinoshita sisters killing each other from spreading, she not only dares not fight back, but will even help you cover up the news. So you can beat her up without any scruples."

Songzhi Zi crossed his arms and said, "As long as you transfer the things you should be concerned about to others, you will be invincible!"

"..."

Yukinoshita Yukino held her forehead with her hand. "I was wrong to even think of asking you what to do. I really can't expect you to give me a normal answer."

“Why is it abnormal?”

Songzhi Zi tilted his head, looking innocent: "Besides this time, have you ever beaten Yang No before?"

Yukinoshita Yukino's words paused.

"Those righteous things you used to be so proud of, the principles of life you used to uphold: self-improvement, relying on your own strength to solve problems, wanting to conquer others with your own abilities—have you ever succeeded in defeating Yang Noi even once?"

Songzhizi spread his hands and said something heartbreaking.

Yukinoshita Yukino had nothing to say. After all, it was the truth. She had never used her own strength to defeat Yukinoshita Haruno even once.

On the contrary, this time, she used the name of a deal with Matsueda Azusa to punch Yang Noi without caring about anything, which dealt a heavy blow to Yang Noi.

"You should have understood by now, Yukinoshita-san. Honest methods can only defeat honest people. If you want to deal with wicked people, you must use wicked methods."

Matsueda Azusa came to a conclusion.

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned, reflected, and wondered, and finally it dawned on her: "That means, in fact, to deal with you, I only need to simply swing my fist, right?"?

Why did he become the target of our rebellion in the end?

Wait…did he unknowingly create a high school version of Shizuka Hiratsuka?

Matsueda Azusa smiled at Yukinoshita Yukino, but did not answer. Instead, he quickly increased his speed, distanced himself from her, and disappeared from Yukinoshita Yukino's sight in a flash.

Give it to Luda!

Yukinoshita Yukino did not stop him. She looked down at her fist and fell into deep thought.

To be honest, if it were under normal circumstances, the nonsense that Matsueda Azusa said would not affect her previous persistence and ideas at all.

But the problem is... she did what Matsueda Azusa said and actually beat Haruno once... This made her feel conflicted.

Fists...are they unexpectedly so useful?

208

Chapter 208 Miura Yumiko decides to fight it out.

After school, activity room.

Yumiko Miura's behavior today was a little strange. She didn't make a fuss like usual, nor did she express dissatisfaction with Azusa Matsueda for running away early on the day of the school anniversary.

It was so quiet that even Hikigaya Hachiman felt a little scared. This guy might be plotting something in secret.

The club activities began in this strange atmosphere.

However, before Matsueda Azusa could start proposing the next activity, there was a knock on the door.

The person who came to the Inspection Department was quite unexpected—it was Hime Ebina.

"Ah, Yumiko, hello hello~"

She waved to Miura Yumiko, "And the other students in the Inspection Club, hello~"

Yumiko Miura just nodded at her with a serious look on her face, as if she was preparing something.

Matsueda Azusa then asked, "Mr. Ebina? Please take a seat. I wonder what brings you to the Hanshe?"

Ebina Hina pulled a chair aside and sat down. "Eh? Well, after all... after all, we're here to see the Inspection Department. No matter how you think about it, the purpose is obvious."

Hit the nail on the head, that statement really made sense. Hikigaya Hachiman and Numizu Kazuhiko couldn't help but nod inwardly—what else could they be doing coming to the Inspection Department for?

Yana saw Kyoko blurt out, "Who do you want to break up?"

Matsueda Azusa glanced at Miura Yumiko calmly. It was obvious that this guy had the closest relationship with Ebina among all the people present, but now he didn't say a word... There must be some conspiracy.

"Hmm...if I had to say I'd break someone up, it wouldn't be that bad..."

Ebina Hina lowered her eyes, fiddling with the hem of her skirt, searching for the right words. "How should I put it? I feel like something's shifting within the group..."

"? Ebina-san, you're so slow."

Matsueda Azusa quipped without hesitation, "There's no need for the word 'seemingly' anymore, right? Even Miura has joined the Supervisory Department. Of course, your little group is changing."

Yumiko Miura's face turned dark.

"Not in that sense!"

Ebina Hina quickly waved her hand and explained, "Just like what Yumiko told us when she first decided to join the Inspection Club, even if she does, our small group will still exist. While there may be some changes, we can still continue with our lives as before... I think that kind of change is acceptable."

"But I'm not talking about that kind of change. To be more precise, it's the Ministry of Revenue and the others... There may be many factors involved, and I can't know what others are thinking. However, I am sure they are different from before. I don't want this to continue. It would be best if we could get along well like before."

Yana saw that Kyoko was dizzy and said, "I don't understand what you mean at all... I hate the Riddler."

Miura Yumiko sighed, and finally couldn't help but speak: "To put it simply, Tobe wants to pursue Himena, but Himena isn't interested in him. However, he's worried that a direct rejection will cause the group to fall apart... So he wants our help to dissuade Tobe from pursuing her in a way that won't destroy the group."

Ebina Hime smiled. Her smile was very natural, without a hint of malice, and it didn't look like the smile she got when she saw a BL story. "That's pretty much what Yumiko said."

While Hikigaya Hachiman and Numizu Kazuhiko didn't quite agree, they both understood Ebina Hina's mentality—she really liked the way her group was, and the relationships she'd built around her. It wasn't just her perspective as a fujoshi, but also her own thoughts on her current situation.
