The work in the afternoon was the same as in the morning. The only difference was that the discarded documents were probably processed and Ochako Hana was sent to the printer.

The two of them just stood stupidly next to the printer.

【It's a double door! 】

Is he really a genius?

After making a casual comment, Hachiman took out his phone openly, found a light novel and started reading.

《Gravity makes me stronger?", what a weird title, but it looks interesting. What's the use of this recommendation vote?

Just when he was confused about the new function on the APP, Hachiman heard Ochako Hana whispering next to him.

"Hikigaya-san, can you do me a favor?"

"What?"

"The minister asked me to move this, but I can't move it alone."

Ochako Hana pointed to the big box next to the printer. It was filled with documents that were incomprehensible, but they were probably written materials used by Strawberry Agency for recruitment.

Hachiman squatted down and tried to lift the box, and found that It seemed that even his half-a-million-horse arm could not lift it.

He avoided Ochakohana's concerned gaze and walked outside.

"Wait a minute, I'll find a trolley."

Tools are mankind's best partners

【The system is the best plug-in for human beings]

Hey, you even rhyme?

But you can give me the ability to strengthen my body!

Hachiman walked to the utility room and came back with a cart

"Let's move it up together."

With the joint efforts of the two, the box was finally lifted onto the cart. Hachiman held the pole with one hand, while Ochako followed behind to keep the cart balanced.

On the way to the minister's office, Ocha Zihua suddenly asked

"Hikigaya-san, what is your relationship with Toyokawa-san?"

‘I always feel that Hikigaya-san and Toyokawa-san are very close. Well, that’s not right. It seems that Toyokawa-san is unilaterally trying to get closer.’

‘As for Hikigaya-san, I kind of want to, but I don’t seem to dare?’

【Hey, how could you say that to me, Hachiman-nii! Husky pointing.JPG】

【Don’t I, Hachiman-nii, dare? That’s because I don’t want to!】

【And my Hachiman-nii’s first time was for steel balls! 】

System, don’t sleep too hard at night.

Hachiman paused for a moment, mentally hit the system with Lushan Shenglongba, and then continued to move forward.

"It doesn't matter, what's wrong?"

"But Toyokawa-san occasionally mentions you to me. Isn’t Toyokawa-san very cold in the class? So I’m very curious about you. What kind of person can win the favor of Toyokawa-san?"

"It's nothing, maybe it's because there are fewer boys in the school"

"Yeah? I was wondering if Toyokawa-san has a good relationship with you in private. You see, this workplace internship is the same."

Girls, please stop gossiping like this, okay?"

"It's just a classmate relationship. Hachiman replied coldly, and the latter said"Oh" obediently, and the two said nothing more. Before returning to the printing room after delivering the box, Hachiman received a friend request from a stranger.

Haruki Yamauchi : Apply to add you as a friend

【They are probably coming to you to ask for information about Ochako flowers. What should I do? 】

Just ignore it.

Getting involved in other people's relationships is actually a very complicated matter, and Hachiman doesn't want to cause trouble for himself.

However, probably determined to form a united front with him, Haruki Yamauchi, who was working downstairs, ran up when he was about to get off work.

"Hitori-kun, I added you as a friend. Can you approve it?"Yamauchi Haruki clasped his hands together and begged very piously,

"Oh, I'll pass it when I get back."Hachiman scratched his cheek and started to act stupid.

"Hey, but I have something to tell you now"

"Can you go back and say no?"

"Please, Hikigaya, no, Hikigaya-san!"

【It turns out that you know the name of my Hachiman brother, but it’s too late to change your mind now. Someone will drag him out and chop him up!】

"..."

Under Haruki Yamauchi's continued pleading, Hachiman finally agreed to the other party's friend request out of soft-heartedness.

After Haruki Yamauchi left, Ochako Hana walked up and looked at him with a strange look.

‘Hikigaya-san seems to have a good relationship with Yamauchi-san, Shishasha’

‘Also, I feel like Hikigaya-san has the kind of character that won’t reject someone when someone asks her to do something for her, and she has the physique to accept it.’

‘However, Hikigaya-san and Toyokawa-san also have a lot of disagreements. What should I do? I'm so confused. '

No, girl, you look dull on the outside, but why are you still a fujoshi?

And they are obviously here to pursue you.

After hearing this, Hachiman immediately cut off his own abilities.

"It’s almost time. Contact Toyokawa-san. It’s time to get off work."

"oh."

Soon, Toyokawa Shoko, who had been separated from Hachiman and the others, also returned to the office. There seemed to be traces of makeup on her face, and there were some subtle changes in her temperament.

Toyokawa Shoko's cherry-red cheeks revealed the childishness of a high school student. , a pair of almond-shaped eyes under long eyelashes, full of energy.

Hachiman looked straight at the other party, as if his soul had been taken away.

"Sorry, I'm late. Let's go back. Can we meet at this time tomorrow?"Toyokawa Shoko said very gently.

"I'm OK."Hachiman

"oh."Ochako Hana.

Because the direction of Ochako Hana's house is different from the two of them, after leaving the office building, only Hachiman and Toyokawa Shoko were in the car together.

Probably a little tired, Toyokawa Shoko was sitting on the chair He continued to doze off, and his body gradually moved towards Hachiman.

The moment before his body came closer, Hachiman said.

"Toyokawa-san, will the work schedule be the same tomorrow morning?"

Toyokawa Shoko woke up and shook his head, trying to make his mind clearer.

"Yes, Hikigaya-san, don’t you like today’s work?"

"No, why don't you just let me do this job for the rest of my life?"

"Printer god?"

"..."

Toyokawa Shoko raised a smile and said leisurely

"But after all, you have arrived at the agency. If Hikigaya-san is willing, I can ask Ms. Saito to help you arrange a job for you....What about other offices?"

‘The idols of Strawberry Agency are all so beautiful. If Hikigaya-san is allowed to go there, he is so kind and he will definitely be teased. No! Hachiman

, who had just started reading his heart, turned away his eyes awkwardly and looked out the car window.

I always feel that Toyokawa Shoko has some misunderstandings about his own image

‘By the way, I haven’t talked much to Hikigaya-san today. Will he think I’m neglecting him? But...I don't know Hikigaya-san's preferences, don't tell me...Don't think about it being so easily misunderstood.

Along the way, the two were speechless.

It wasn't until he was almost at the station that Toyokawa Shoko spoke:"Although I've asked you before, Hikigaya-san, do you like music?"

"fine"

"Which one do you like? Rock, blues, folk or classical?"

"As long as it’s not music praising youth, it’s fine"

"Hikigaya-san’s preference is really...Strange."

When it came to the more embarrassing part, Toyokawa Shoko could only change the topic abruptly:"So, does Hikigaya-san like small animals? Cat pie or dog pie?"

"cat. Hachiman replied without hesitation that although dogs are also very cute, they are not as good as cats.

‘I like cats too’

"I also have a cat at home, but unfortunately I haven’t seen him for a long time."

"Ah, can you show me his photo?"

"Can."

Hachiman generously displayed the photo of Yuki-kun in his home.

‘Such a cute cat, but if you want to raise one, it’s better to start with a kitten. This can also serve as a reference for raising children in the future....’

No, what are you thinking!

Hachiman was startled by Shoko Toyokawa's voice and decisively turned off his ability.

"Hikigaya-san, why are your face so red?"

"Maybe it’s because I feel more energetic after work."

"So Hikigaya-san likes to work?"

"No, the most annoying"

"That’s why Hikigaya-san plans to become a househusband after graduation."

Toyokawa Shoko lowered his head. Since his ability was turned off, Hachiman didn't know what he was thinking at the moment.

"What about you, like music?"

"Hmm, I like it."Toyokawa Shoko smiled happily. Such a bright smile made Hachiman afraid to look directly at him.

He tilted his head and asked stutteringly.

"Wouldn't that be great?"

"Yes, it's great, but I don't know what will happen after my hobby becomes my job...."

Yes, this is a question that Toyokawa Shoko has been thinking about.

She really liked music, very much.

If I didn’t like music, I wouldn’t have formed Crychic, let alone perform on stage in front of so many people.

But that's all based on"likes".

What she wants to do now is completely contrary to the principle she has always had, which is to use her favorite music as a money-making tool.

Is it really right to treat music this way?

Shoko Toyokawa, who was taught to fear the God of music since childhood, had this question

"There's nothing wrong with it."Hachiman said decisively.

"Rather, being able to treat your hobby as a job is something that countless people look forward to. However, if you are afraid of losing your love for music because of this, it only means that your hobby is nothing more than that."

In this way, Hachiman broke into the depths of Toyokawa Shoko's heart nakedly and revealed the scar without mercy.

"This is just like friends. Whether they break off the relationship for some trivial reason or something else, it only means that their friendship is only to this extent and cannot be considered a real thing."

But if it is not the real thing, how should I face the music?

Although he did not have the ability to activate it, Hachiman read this meaning through Toyokawa Shoko's sad expression.

He took a deep breath and said word by word

"So, wouldn’t it be great as long as you can continue to fall in love with happiness?"

"..."

Toyokawa Shoko opened his mouth and listened motionlessly to Hachiman's words. Then, his eyes quickly turned red and his breathing became a little rapid.

Her reaction was a bit beyond Hachiman's expectations, so he immediately added

"However, these words are just my unilateral thoughts and are for reference only."

"No, I think Hikigaya-san said it very well."Toyokawa Shoko wiped away the tears with the back of her hand, and then suddenly smiled with relief.

In fact, that was not what she wanted to hear from Hachiman, but his words were like a clear spring, nourishing her heart. The part that is about to dry up.

If you just comfort me briefly, I won't be so sad.

Why do you have to beat around the bush?

"Hikigaya-san is really an awkward person."Toyokawa Shoko said naturally

"What's wrong with being awkward? It's better to say that frank people make people have headaches. Being awkward is the best!" Hachiman rested his chin on his head and replied proudly

"Yes, I don’t dislike boys who are as awkward as Hikigaya-san." Shoko Toyokawa said on the rickety bus....

After getting off the bus, Hachiman's heart was still beating.

【I wouldn’t hate a boy who is as awkward as Hikigaya-san, oh ho! 】

Wait a minute, this is all in one chapter, don’t leave it here to review the past, the word count is low, right?
