Why does the Ruined King still fall in love?

Some are office workers rushing home, some are housewives who go out to collect food in the evening, some are elementary school students riding bicycles with their friends, and some are junior high school students who are chatting and laughing at the convenience store after club activities, and they are just about to go out now. High school students playing, and mothers who go out to pick up their children.

This familiar scene exudes a warm and nostalgic atmosphere.

Komachi murmured:

"It's a very happy thing to have someone say 'Welcome back' to yourself."

"Um......"

While responding to Hikigaya Komachi's emotional words, Hikigaya Hachiman noticed a familiar person on the river bank in a daze from the corner of his eyes.

Dazzling blonde hair.

It looked a little lonely under the soft warm light of the street lamp.

It's Yumiko Miura.

Chapter 170: White-eyed Wolf and Forgotten Friend

"Hearing such greetings when I got home, I feel like no matter how tired I am outside, at least everything is worth it at that moment."

Komachi waited for a while, but did not wait for his brother's response.

It stands to reason that whenever she uttered such beautiful words of emotion, although Hikigaya Hachiman would agree on the surface, he would immediately follow up with an unpleasant remark.

These are things Komachi has become accustomed to.

But Hikigaya Hachiman was not as he remembered, so Komachi tilted his head and looked at Hikigaya Hachiman who was walking beside him.

He found that his eyes were now on the side of the river.

Although Komachi was not used to the lack of expression on his brother's face at first, he gradually accepted it after getting used to it.

Since there was nothing to be seen from Hikigaya Hachiman's face, Komachi followed his gaze and looked towards the river bank.

A familiar person was dragging his chin with one hand on the guardrail, staring blankly at the smoothly flowing river.

Because their backs were facing each other, Komachi could only guess who this familiar figure was from the outline.

Long golden hair?

And this slender figure, and slender legs...

Is it sister Yumiko?

Why is she here alone?Are you waiting for someone?

"elder brother."

"Well, what's the matter?"

The two brothers and sisters stopped in their tracks. Sabre, who wanted to continue walking a few steps, also stopped when he felt the tightness of the collar. He turned his head and stuck out his tongue to look at the two who stopped suddenly.

"That girl... should be sister Yumiko, right?"

"Yes. Komachi, do you have such a deep impression on her? I haven't seen her a few times, and I can recognize her only from the back."

"What kind of idiot am I? Yumiko's sister's characteristics are quite obvious! It's hard to forget those long legs after just one look at them. By the way, Yumiko's sister is also a sock party on weekdays. I thought she was that The kind of guy who wears knee socks with short skirts to show off his long legs."

Turning her head, and complaining to Hikigaya Hachiman in a complaining tone, Komachi expressed her confusion.

Yumiko Miura is a person who likes to show her personal charm, which Komachi knows very well. When Chiba Village gets along with Yumiko Miura, she can feel her unintentional charm all the time.

But at that time, she was doing volunteer work, so it was normal for Yumiko Miura to choose to wear only socks, for the convenience of work.

But Yumiko-san usually wears socks, which Komachi didn't expect.

Komachi also liked knee socks before, because they look good with skirts, but my brother doesn’t seem to like knee socks now, so Komachi gave up knee socks a long time ago.

Although the reason for wearing socks may be different, Komachi is still very happy to see a girl with the same cuteness as her.

"Girls have different preferences. After all, what socks to wear is a very personal thing."

Hearing his brother's uninteresting answer, Komachi also lost interest in continuing to tease his brother.

Originally, Komachi wanted to continue teasing Hikiya Hachiman who is a boy.

The book says that adolescent boys are very curious about many things about cute girls. When they were in school, Komachi saw how the boys behaved in school, which also fit the book.

But my brother seems to be an exception.

Although he talked about how many cute girls he wanted to date at the same time, he was not excited by these teasing...

Hikigaya Hachiman's indifferent performance made Komachi a little happy.

So it seems that the older brother rarely shows obsessive obsession with the older sisters in school.

The possessive desire in Komachi's heart was a little excited, but it was quickly poured cold water.

My brother and girls are not very interested in these things, which means that I am the same in my brother's eyes, right?

"elder brother."

"Ok?"

"Hmm, what, um! Don't you want to say hello? Occasionally, when you meet a classmate in class, saying hello is always a necessary etiquette, right?"

Hikigaya Hachiman withdrew his gaze from looking at Miura Yumiko's back, and lowered his head to look at Komachi who was getting angry for no reason.

After thinking about it, Hikigu Hachiman felt that he knew the reason why Komachi's tone was not good.

So he stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Komachi's little head to comfort her.

"Komachi is very cute, whether it's stockings or socks, in my brother's heart she is a cute little sister."

That's what I said, but if Komachi really changed to wearing stockings, Hikiya Hachiman still felt a little pimple in his heart.

But looking at Komachi's gradually relaxing brows, Hikiya Hachiman felt that his insistence was indeed a little too petty.

There is no need to let irrelevant girls pay for his trauma, even if they are willing.

"Didn't I say that what to wear is a very personal matter. Brother will not object to what Komachi likes to wear. The premise is not to wear some clothes that are too unconventional to appear in front of others."

"What are you talking about, Komachi didn't wear knee socks at first because Komachi thought it would be uncomfortable to wear them...It's much cooler to wear socks in summer...Komachi likes socks so he wears them , has nothing to do with my brother..."

There were good reasons, but Komachi knew very well that this was a lie.

The over-the-knee socks she wore before were of good quality, breathable and comfortable to wear, even in summer, as long as she didn't exercise strenuously, she wouldn't feel uncomfortable wearing them.

I would choose socks to show my thighs, just because my brother doesn't like long socks.

Since her brother doesn't like it, then she doesn't need to stick to the original thing, as long as her brother likes it, then she likes it too.

Komachi believed that as long as she opened her mouth, her brother would accommodate her.

But let the elder brother wrong him to accommodate himself...

She couldn't do this kind of thing, and she felt a little guilty just thinking about it.

"Komachi likes herself very much, so..."

Gently holding Hikigaya Hachiman's hand stroking her little head with his hand, and then slightly moving away, Komachi looked straight into his eyes and said seriously.

"My brother doesn't need to change because of Komachi. It's Komachi who catches up with my brother, not my brother making uncomfortable changes for Komachi."

"Ha, Komachi's score is very high, you said earlier?!"

Before Hikigaya Hachiman could respond, Komachi grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the river bank.

Sabre, who was sitting and watching the siblings, was also pulled over. When he realized it, he had already been dragged on the grass for a certain distance. After adjusting his posture, he quickly followed the rhythm of the two.

There is only one reason to go to the river bank, and that is Yuiko Miura watching the scenery there.

So Komachi's action is to take Hikigaya Hachiman to say hello to Miura Yuiko.

Hikigaya Hachiman who was following behind saw her thoughts from Komachi's slightly red side face.

Komachi's physical strength is not very good, but it is not enough to turn red with this amount of exercise, so there is only one reason for the rosy face.

Are you shy...

The corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Although he has always controlled his emotions well, Hikigu Hachiman smiled naturally in front of Komachi far more than when he was with other girls.

However, if neither of the two parties noticed the occasional encounter with acquaintances on the road, Hikigu Hachiman would just pass by as if nothing happened.

He is not a very enthusiastic person. When he sees acquaintances on the street, he doesn't think about going up to say hello. Instead, he thinks about how to slip away without being noticed.

It was so before, and it is so now.

Just for different reasons.

In the past, it was because he avoided communicating with people, but now it was because it would be troublesome, and these boring etiquettes would waste some of his time.

Although the time he saves won't be used for important things, he just finds it troublesome.

Komachi wants him to do this, so let her wish, and he does have plans to say hello to Miura Yuiko.

"Sister Yumiko!"

Komachi took Hikigaya Hachiman and ran not far from Miura Yumiko, then let go of his hand, and then handed the handle of Sabre's dog leash to Hikigaya Hachiman.

Approaching Yumiko Miura with brisk steps, Komachi called Yumiko Miura's name in a Genki voice, and stood beside her.

"Well, it's me... Komachi!? Why are you here?"

Miura Yuiko is a very popular girl. Most girls who meet her will take the initiative to say hello to her when they see her.

So even though Yumiko Miura was staring at the reflection in the river in a daze before, when she heard someone calling her, she didn't take it seriously and prepared to respond.

Then something was wrong from the voice of vitality, this voice seems to be the younger sister of Biqigu Hachiman?

Yumiko Miura turned her head, and was a little surprised to see Komachi smiling at her.

But she soon calmed down, she didn't want to leave a bad impression in front of sister Hikigaya Hachiman, and responded to Komachi's greeting.

"Komachi should be asking this question, sister Yumiko? Komachi also wants to know why sister Yumiko is at the river bank, is she enjoying the scenery?"

"Ah...it's about the same as what you said..."

Yumiko Miura hesitated in response, speaking intermittently, and didn't really want to tell the reason why she was in a daze here.

After all, it is a very personal matter. Regarding Yumiko Miura's own love affairs, even when talking with Ebina Himena, she is very careful, for fear of being noticed by the meticulous Ebina Himena.

Probably because Ji Cai didn't notice it, right?Because I have been emphasizing that it is a friend of mine who has such troubles...

When Ji Cai talked with her on the phone, she didn't seem to realize that the friend she was talking about was actually herself... right?

But since Komachi gave a reason, let's just go down the steps.

"What is Komachi doing out so late?"

"Me? I went out for a dog walk with my brother, and then I saw sister Yumeko, so I came to say hello to sister Yumeko~~"

"So it's like this, I went out to walk the dog with my brother..."

Yumiko Miura nodded while talking.

It is a very pleasant thing to go out to play with your pets with your family. It can not only exercise the pets who are idle at home, but also enhance the relationship between family members through this way of activities together.

Although she doesn't have pets at home, she has seen the dog in Yuigahama Yui's house, and it is very cute.

Going out with the family.

family?

What did Komachi say earlier?

Going out with my brother...?

Meaning that is? ! !

Miura Yuiko turned her head abruptly, and saw Hikigaya Hachiman squatting down and rubbing the puppy's head.

The pupils dilated suddenly, and the culprit who caused her to run here and be in a daze appeared in front of her.

It was blank, Yumiko Miura felt as if she couldn't think anymore.

Just looking at Hikigaya Hachiman playing with the dog, he couldn't say a word.

Unlike the sluggish Yumiko Miura, Komachi pouted slightly when she saw Hikigaya Hachiman who was squatting down and playing with Sabre.

"Brother! Didn't you agree to say hello to sister Yumiko? Why are you playing with Sabre!"

While talking, he trotted towards Hikigaya Hachiman and Sabrey, grabbed Hikigaya Hachiman's arm and pulled him up, then pushed Hikigaya Hachiman's back to let him go to Miura Yuiko's side.
