I, Hikigaya, the Fourth True Ancestor

However, the girls looked at each other and I looked at you. It seemed that the situation was a bit indescribable, but from the looks of it, it was definitely not an embarrassing situation like girls changing clothes. Compared with listening to them slowly inking, Hikigaya Hachiman I think it might be a better way to just open the door and confirm.

However, the moment he opened the door, Hikigaya Hachiman regretted it a little. There were only three people in the classroom, and it smelled like a storm was coming.

Hayama Hayato glanced at the door, then turned around and chatted with a few girls outside the door, pretending not to know anything.

But Hikigaya probably couldn't do this. There were three women standing in the classroom, the current student council president, Yukinoshita Yukino, and the Yukinoshita Harano who always wore girly clothes in the impression.

"Sister, what are you doing here?" Frankly speaking, Yukinoshita Yukino's questioning tone was a bit too cold, and it seemed that the relationship between the two was very tense.

"I hate it~ I heard that you are recruiting groups who are interested in performing, so I came here. I am the OG who has been in the orchestra club." This woman named Yangno didn't care about her sister's indifference. She must have been used to it. But Yukinoshita Yukino is probably just not good at dealing with it.

By the way, OG refers to Old girl?The shadow of Hiratsuka Shizu flashed through Hikigaya Hachiman's mind for no reason. No, this is always too disrespectful to Hiratsuka.The so-called OG should refer to alumni, right?

"No, I'm sorry, I actually found Senior Sister Yangno. We met by chance on the road before, and we talked about many topics since we hadn't seen each other for a long time. It just so happened that the school anniversary was facing the problem of insufficient performance groups. I think... "The student council president seems to want to smooth things over, but to be honest, this kind of rhetoric is really clumsy.

At least in Hikigaya Hachiman's opinion, it is absolutely impossible for someone like Yukinoshita Harano to meet others by chance. If you meet Yukinoshita Harano by chance, it must be because Yukinoshita Harano wants you to meet Yukinoshita by chance. Yang Nai is right.

"Yunoshita-san hadn't entered school yet, so she might not have known about it. However, when Haruno-senpai was a third-year student, she once formed a group to perform at the school anniversary, and the performance was very exciting. So I thought... Do you want to invite her..." Senpai looked at Yukinoshita Yukino with worried eyes, probably meaning, what do you think?

Probably because Yukino has been helping Hikigaya Hachiman handle paperwork these days, and she is almost considered a deputy. I have to say that Yukinoshita Yukino is a very useful secretary, and many tasks can be dumped directly to her, which is very good. use.

At this time, Yangno broke the silence with an embarrassed laugh: "Ah haha! Patrol, you can't say that! It was just for fun that time. This year I plan to be more serious. I wonder if the school will let me practice more often... So Yukino, okay? Anyway, you happen to be short of a performance group~"

The intonation of this woman's speech is really weird. It's even more complicated than the interactions between Hachiman and Yukinoshita Haruno. I always feel that this woman's speech has a strange charm. If it were written in a novel, she would have to be given something special that others don't have. Symbols do.

"For my lovely sister Yukino, as long as I can do it, I will do it for you!"

Really?Yukinoshita Harano, you don’t want your sister to be bullied at school, right?

"It's none of my business. I'm just an ordinary executive member. Sister, if you want to participate, ask my boyfriend Hikigaya-kun. He is the chairman."

Yukinoshita Yukino bit her lip and asked the question to Hikigaya Hachiman. Yukinoshita Harano was always like this, which made her feel helpless.

But this is also the right thing to do, because theoretically speaking, whether Yukinoshita Haruno can participate in the school anniversary performance is indeed a matter that can only be decided by Hachiman Hachiman.

Ms. Yukinoshita Haruno, you don’t want to be unable to attend your sister’s school celebration, right?

"Hachiman, when did you date Yukino? I obviously like you more, but I actually dated Yukino. It's really sad."

What?The student council president's eyes were probably full of shock. She actually realized that the junior student who served as the chairman was not a simple character, and she had also heard about the relationship between Hikigaya Hachiman and Yukinoshita Yukino, but...

This is too exciting. The fact that Yukinoshita Yukino and Hikigaya Hachiman are dating is still within her acceptance range, but Yukinoshita Haruno is an out-and-out legendary woman in her memory.

In this way, would Yukinoshita Haruno like a junior who is still a sophomore in high school?

"Let's stop chatting, Your Majesty Yukima Miko. I can approve the performance you mentioned."

Hikigaya Hachiman stepped forward and stood quietly between Yukino and Haruno: "After all, we are short of manpower now and there are not enough performances. Thank you very much for lending a helping hand. But you can I can’t stop harassing my girlfriend during working hours, after all, she’s quite busy.”

"Harassment or something, she's my sister." Yukinoshita Yono narrowed her eyes dangerously. To be honest, people like Yono are very good at hiding their emotions, but this hiding itself is also a kind of expression. .

But Hikigaya Hachiman didn't care. After all, he agreed to Yukino to pretend to be her boyfriend, especially in front of her family.

Hikigaya Hachiman grabbed Yukinoshita Yukino's little hand. After all, this was not the first time he held hands. Although Yukinoshita Yukino was a little surprised, he still accepted the kindness very meekly.

It was very rare. Frankly speaking, the expression on that Yukinoshita really made Hikigaya Hachiman very excited.

This expression is very rare.

Seeing Hikigaya Hachiman holding Yukinoshita Yukino's hand back to her seat, Yukinoshita Yono's eyes were filled with a dangerous taste, but she was suppressed immediately, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Hikigaya could detect a little bit of Harano's emotions. It wasn't murderous intent or anything, maybe it was just...jealousy?

No, no matter whether this jealousy is directed at Yukinoshita Yukino or Hikigaya Hachiman, it is too strange.

Hayama Hayato glanced quietly outside the door and then shrank back. According to common sense, it was not his style to be so timid, but it seemed that he was a little afraid of the dangers in the classroom.

No, it can't be said to be dangerous. That guy Hayama looked at Yukinoshita Harano in a strange way, admiration or something like that?It's a bit like that. Hikigaya is not very sure. After all, although he claims to be a human observer, no matter how amazing his insight is, he can't judge everything with just one look.

The work of the executive committee unfolds daily, with Yukinoshita Yukino handling paperwork obediently beside Hikigaya Hachiman. Of course, most decisions are still made by Hikigaya Hachiman.

In fact, Yukino is quite suitable for this status. She has a strong working ability, but she is not willing to stand in front of the stage. Hikigaya thinks that maybe such a clerical job can accommodate Yukinoshita Yukino's future plans.

Of course, there are other issues that need to be dealt with now. After giving Yukinoshita Yukino a signaling look, Hikigaya Hachiman turned to Yukinoshita Yukino and said, "I have to go to the toilet."

"Yeah, okay." Yukinoshita Yukino nodded and did not look at Hikigaya. She was probably very concerned about the fact that she held hands with Hikigaya Hachiman in front of Yukinoshita Harano just now. For Yukinoshita, This behavior is still too bold.

Everyone was in the classroom. Hikigaya Hachiman didn't close the door and came to the corridor silently. Sure enough, Yukinoshita Harano followed quietly after a while.

Of course, this guy is quite conspicuous. If you say he is quiet, probably everyone who should know will know about it.

"Excuse me, what are you planning to do?" Hikigaya Hachiman said his question bluntly. The most terrifying thing about Yangno is that he can't guess what she is thinking. Even Hikigaya Hachiman can't tell the truth. See through this woman's thoughts.

If we look at attitude, Yukinoshita Harano definitely belongs to his own camp. After all, although Yukinoshita Harano is often Hikigaya Hachiman's most annoying Riddler, the help he gives is real.

But that’s not entirely true. Everyone has their own unique position in this world. One moment they may be friends, and the next moment they may become enemies for some reason.

Just like Himeira Yukina, if the Lion King Agency issues an order to fully antagonize Hikigaya Hachiman in the next second, Yukina's position will inevitably become very difficult, although Hikigaya Hachiman believes that Yukina will definitely question it with all his strength. This is an order, but it is really difficult to judge whether it is an enemy or a friend in that situation.

The same goes for Yukinoshita Harano. Although they are currently very powerful allies, the situation of the Yukinoshita family itself is very complicated. What kind of relationship is Yukinoshita and Harano? Frankly speaking, Hikigaya Hachiman is not very Clear, but...

Whether they are brothers or sisters, they will inevitably be compared, and there will be many situations where they are judged as superior or inferior. It would be better if the two parties are of the opposite sex, such as Hikigaya Hachiman and Komachi, because there are differences in gender between the two. Even if there is a difference, there are reasons such as 'No way, boys are just like this' that can be used as excuses.

However, Yukinoshita Yukino and Yukinoshita Harano are both female, and there is even a somewhat rough competitive relationship between the two. It may be difficult to say whether there will be a conflict.

Although saying this may feel a little sorry for Haruno, a useful tool, from an emotional point of view, Hikigaya Hachiman is fully inclined to Yukino. He naturally puts himself on Yukino's side, and Yukino is his. One of his own, for this reason, he wants to question Yukinoshita Yono's purpose.

Chapter 217 The Arrival of Miku Miu

"Your Highness, the Fourth True Ancestor, seems to be very hostile to others. It's really sad." Yukinoshita Harano looked heartbroken. Of course, whoever believed it was an idiot.

"I have no ill intentions towards the miko, I'm just curious about your purpose."

"That's what it means literally. I'm just here to participate in the event."

Good intentions are not the same as good intentions. Hikigaya Hachiman has always believed this. People like Yukinoshita Haruno should not be unable to understand this. But she still came without hesitation. Does it seem to be kindness and help for her sister?But in fact……

Yukinoshita Yukino has always lived in the shadow of her sister. Even in Hikigaya Hachiman's view, Yukinoshita Yukino is already a very good person, but the most fearful thing between people is comparison.

Comparison is the source of pain. If you have never seen the light, then the darkness is not unbearable. If you are compared with Yukinoshita Harano, it will undoubtedly become the source of pain for Yukinoshita Yukino.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"What do I have to say to make you believe me."

Hikigaya Hachiman was slightly silent. Stereotypes were the worst things in the world. If possible, he didn't want to look at people through colored glasses, but he couldn't believe even a single punctuation mark of what Yangno said.

"Since His Highness the Fourth True Ancestor can't say it, please don't interfere. I shouldn't have any oversteps." This sentence was said coldly and without any pretense. This may be the true meaning of Yukinoshita Yono. The cold, smiling miko was like a mask.

"Don't do anything to hurt Yukinoshita. I hope you have some sense of measure."

"I have completely taken over as my boyfriend. Yukino is really a happy child."

Hikigaya Hachiman stopped talking and turned around to return to the classroom. He still had to be busy, especially now that he had to take advantage of enough manpower to do as much work as possible.

……

What kind of things will never decrease no matter how much you do or how much you do?

The answer is of course work, which is the most painful thing in the world. No matter what kind of hobby, once it becomes work, it will become painful after a while, just like writing a novel. No matter how much you loved it before and used love to generate electricity, Every night when I scratch my head and think about the plot, I want to slap myself twice.

This is especially true for high school students. There is a lot of academic pressure every day, and they have to deal with school anniversary work after school. It is almost like an internship in a social animal, and the most outrageous thing is that it is not paid.

After a while, Hikigaya calculated that there were not even 20 people sitting here working.Five of them were student union cadres, which represented the school anniversary executive committee composed of two people from each of the thirty classes. In fact, more than half of the members were not present.

Because...they all took leave.

This is a matter of course, or rather, it is completely expected by Hikigaya Hachiman. No matter how nice the name the school uses, asking students to organize the school anniversary is itself a waste of cheap labor.

In other words, it is not cheap labor at all, it is completely using free labor. Because it is a school activity, as a member of the school, how can students use wages?

The most painful thing in the world is work. The thing that is more painful than work is unpaid work. At the beginning, everyone may be very motivated because of the novelty.

But as time goes by, retirement, escaping, and fishing will become the norm. Hikigaya Hachiman has expected this to happen since the first person to ask for leave.

There is a theory called the broken window effect. This theory believes that if undesirable phenomena in the environment are allowed to exist, people will be tempted to imitate them or even worsen them.Take a building with a few broken windows, for example. If those windows are not repaired, vandals may destroy more windows.Eventually they may even break into a building and, if found uninhabited, perhaps settle there or set fire to it.

The same goes for the school anniversary work. As soon as the first person starts to ask for leave, subsequent students will naturally start to follow suit. After all, the company will deduct money from the company if they ask for leave, but the school anniversary executive committee members work for free.

"Hachiman knew it would become like this, why didn't he stop it from the beginning?" Chizuru Minamoto put aside the documents he had processed and chatted with Hikigaya Hachiman casually, while Yuki behind Hikigaya Hachiman Xia Yukino frowned when he heard this, but then he continued to write quickly without caring about worldly affairs.

"Because they have the right to choose to refuse." Hikigaya Hachiman immersed himself in reading the application forms for performances by various groups. As the chairman, he was not idle for a moment. After school, he was busy with work: "Everyone has a choice. right."

"But we really don't have enough manpower." Minamoto Chizuru sighed: "Most of the selected executive members have left, and the remaining people have no intention to work. Now the main force except us is only the members of the student union. I can’t hold it any longer.”

You can't blame Minamoto Chizuru for complaining. Minamoto Chizuru is obviously in the personnel coordination team, but she doesn't know when it started, and she even had to take the minutes of the meeting.

"In the final analysis, humans are inert creatures. Not everyone comes to participate in the activities voluntarily. There must be many people who are forcibly pushed out to become executive members. This situation is completely understandable."

"I'm not talking about reasons, I'm talking about ways, ways!"

Minamoto Chizuru scratched her head in pain, as if she was complaining to her husband that the money left this month was not enough to pay the rent. No wonder Chizuru felt a little uncomfortable.

As the number of groups participating in the performance increased, the media promotion team had to contact and make more appointments, the budget had to be recalculated, and there was a lot of other heavy work, and the burdens on each group began to become unbalanced.

The work of the health care team and the recordkeeping team are mainly concentrated during the school anniversary, so it does not matter if a few people are missing. However, the staff coordination, media publicity, accounting review and other groups have already raised the alarm about insufficient manpower.

Even under this situation, Chizuru, who is the most capable person in the personnel coordination team, has to help take meeting minutes. What stands out is that she is so busy that Chizuru has been extremely dissatisfied these days and has to pester Hachiman when she goes home. It's not finished until midnight.

Frankly speaking, Hikigaya Hachiman felt that being the chairman of the committee was too much of a sacrifice. It not only consumed physical strength during the day, but also drained kidneys at night.

"Don't worry, I still have a trump card."

Hikigaya Hachiman put down the paperwork in his hand, silently took a sip of tea and smacked his lips. After becoming a vampire, although daily drinks can still be consumed normally, he doesn't know why there is always a feeling that these things are not as good as blood.

Just as Hikigaya Hachiman was reminiscing, there was a knock on the door of the conference room, and a handsome blond guy walked in, minding his own business: "I'm here to hand in the application form for the school anniversary performance..."

Hayama Hayato and Yukinoshita Yukino submitted application forms, but Yukinoshita Yukino showed no sign of raising his head, like a workaholic working overtime: "Put the application form on the right."

Forget the cold attitude, it was a bit too much to not even look at the other person. However, Hayama Hayato was used to Yukino's attitude and didn't think there was anything strange about it. He just silently put the application form aside.

Yukinoshita Yukino is still typing. Her keyboard is dancing rapidly on the laptop. She is really serious. It seems that this guy will be a very qualified social worker in the future.

However, considering that this guy is the eldest daughter of the Yukinoshita family, he should not be reduced to a social animal anyway.

After handing over the application form, Hayama's task was completed, but for some reason, he still stayed here and came closer to Hikigaya Hachiman: "Have the number of people decreased again?"

It was obvious that he could talk to girls better, but Hayama Hayato still chose to talk to Hikigaya Hachiman, who was also a man. Perhaps it was because Hikigaya Hachiman was the person in charge here?

"Yes, there are a little more people asking for leave." Hikigaya Hachiman nodded. This is an obvious thing and does not need to be covered up.

"Do you need help?"

"Aren't you here to hand in the application form?"

"It shouldn't be a big problem if you help me."
