Why does the Ruined King still fall in love?

I always felt that I smelled a lie from this guy's words and deeds just now, so Hikiya Hachiman continued to ask.

Then, because it was unexpected, Issiroha once again puffed up her cheeks pretending to be cute.

"What——. Obviously, I just really want to be with Senior, so it must be suspicious of me. Believe in my love a little more?"

"Hmm... Are you overly suspicious?"

Is he too persistent in this aspect? Hikigu Hachiman also needs to reflect.

"That's right, really. Come on, let's go together quickly?"

"Ah. I see—"

Suddenly, Hikiya Hachiman thought of what would happen after this.

"That's it, Ishiroyu. Speaking of which, there's a cemetery next here."

"Yes, there is..."

While Hikigaya Hachiman was speaking these words, Isshiroha's shoulders trembled.

That's right, like Miura Yumiko, Isshiroha is also a person who is afraid of scary things.

"Besides, since there is a bamboo forest nearby, it's quite dark even in the daytime, making it uncomfortable."

"Yes, is that so?"

Yishiroyu's appearance became obviously strange, and his voice began to tremble.

"President Isshiroha is the kind of person who can't do anything about ghosts, right?"

"Yeah, I'm not very good at it..."

Hikigaya Hachiman stared at Isshiroha, and as he expected, her behavior became more and more suspicious.

"................."

"................."

"...It seems that it is true that you just want to be with me. Sorry for doubting you."

"Do you doubt it to this extent!? Senior, you make me very sad!"

"What is it that hurts? I am introspecting now, and my doubts are also what I am thinking about."

"This way, isn't it like a jigsaw puzzle that can only be completed by putting in the last piece! It's impossible for you not to know!"

Isshiroha, who speaks strange words for some reason, is such a strange woman.

"Better than that. Let's go quickly. If you want to walk through the cemetery alone, I don't mind leaving you alone?"

"Are you finished!? Have you put together the last piece of the puzzle in your mind!?"

Together with Isshiroha who was talking about not knowing something again, Hikigaya Hachiman continued the long-distance run.

Proceed on the road and continue walking along the narrow road next to the private house.

Then, I came to the narrow road with the cemetery on the right and the bamboo forest on the left.

It is a very intimidating scene for a girl who is not resistant to horror.

"Senior——, can you hold hands and walk together?"

As expected, Isshiroba looked like she was about to cry, and her mood also became depressed.

"No. It's hard to run like this, isn't it?"

"Easy to run or love for me, which is more important——"

".........well, love"

"Isn't it too long to think about it!? This kind of multiple-choice question is an instant answer!"

Hikigaya Hachiman took the hand of Isiroha who was complaining, and her hand was as cold as ice due to her nervousness.

"Woo... uncomfortable. Why do you have to go this way?!"

The two of them moved forward in the cemetery area at a speed more like walking than starting a run.

Probably from the eyes of others, it seems that they are completely in love with each other. The cold eyes cast by the girls passing the two of them from the side really make Hikigu Hachiman feel a little unbearable.

Suddenly, right then.

Suddenly something flew out of the bamboo forest.

"Ahh! What what!?"

The frightened Yi Caiyu fell hard.

"Calm down, it's a cat."

Fortunately, because the two were holding hands, after pulling her up before she was about to fall, Hikigu Hachiman pointed to the small animal that appeared from the bamboo forest.

"Meow--"

The cat meowed as if to say hello, and then disappeared over the cemetery.

"It's scary, it's scary... Really, if it's a cat, it's the right way to appear on the stage when it jumps out and screams "I'm a cat!"!"

"That's more frightening. Come on, let's go."

After Hikigaya Hachiman responded to the angry Isshiroha, he prepared to move on.

"Ah, wait a minute. Maybe it was a little twisted just now..."

However, Yishishiyu frowned and stood still.

"Hey, are you alright?"

Facing the slightly worried Hikigaya Hachiman, Isshiroha showed a resolute smile.

"It's okay...it's okay, but I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to walk by myself. Senior, princess, hug me!"

With one arm around Hikigaya Hachiman's shoulder, Isshiroha asked him to hug her.

"Princess Hug... There is still a long distance from the school. It really can't be done. Shall I ask other girls to help?"

Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly thought of molesting, and pressed down the idea of ​​taking Princess Isiroba back to school.

While the two were walking slowly in the cemetery area, most of the other students were ahead of them. If they didn't go back to school, they probably wouldn't be able to call for help.

However, the moment Hikigaya Hachiman made this proposal, Isshiki Yu's face turned pale.

"Hey, you want to leave me alone in this kind of place? No, no, no, no!"

Probably thinking of being left behind near the cemetery made her feel even more horrified, Isshiroha grabbed Hikigaya Hachiman's wrists forcefully.

"Even if you say so... huh?"

While Hikigaya Hachiman was looking around to see if there was anything useful, he found something useful hidden in the bamboo forest.

It's an illegally abandoned trailer.

"That trailer seems to be still moving. Okay, Yishiroyu, let's take that. Shall I take you back?"

"I don't want it! Isn't that just like parading in the street!"

Probably realizing how bad the scene was, Yishiroyu refused with all her strength.

"It's okay, it's not surprising. My mother's favorite movies and TV dramas also have something like that. Is it an image that can be supported by the world?"

"That's a wolf with a belt! I don't want it!"

""Wolf with a Zigzag" is a period drama manga in Japan set in the Edo period. The protagonist of the story, Yi Yidao, was jealous and framed by Liu Yufan after he competed with Yanagyu Fan in front of the Shogun and won the position of gongyijieburen. As a result, the family was destroyed and his wife died, and he took his only son Daigoro into exile. On the way to exile, the father and son continued to fight to the death with the assassins sent by the Yagyu clan to kill them. , The bomb wants to avenge the Yagyu family. Yi Yidao pushing Daigoro's baby carriage is the most deeply rooted image in "Wolf with a Child".

A colorful feather that refuses to accept anything.

Obviously there is no other way (reading).

"So, senior, try your best to hug me back. This is a chance to legally hug me? Don't you want the princess to hug me so much?"

"Speaking of which, my mother used to hurt her waist by carrying a [-]-kilogram bag of rice. I won't make the same mistake. I want to surpass my mother!"

"Why is there an incident that surpassed my mother! And I don't have [-] kilograms!"

"Even so, I can't help it. I'm a skinny boy..."

Hikigaya Hachiman showed near-perfect acting skills, and really flickered past Yishiroyu.

"There, let's work hard with perseverance. Well, I'll make a bento for you tomorrow as a reward..."

Hearing that suggestion, Hikigaya Hachiman couldn't help showing bitterness (acting).

"Hey...why is the punishment increased again? Are you trying to destroy my body from the outside as well as from the inside?"

"What do you think of me!"

"Of course it's my favorite girlfriend. There's nothing you can do. If this is the case, how about I come to the princess to hold you and sit on the trailer, and let a third party transport us back?"

"There is no compromise at all!? It would be better to say that we picked the worst solution! The most important thing is that there is no third party at all!"

"Hey, the third party has always been there? The one standing in front of the tombstone in a blood-stained white kimono?"

"No!? Don't mention that third party that I can't see!"

Yi Seyu's eyes were about to burst into tears.

It seems that she will never agree to the trailer... no way.

Although it is somewhat difficult, I will make up for it with perseverance.

Hikigu Hachiman thought unscrupulously.

"Understood. Then come to the princess—hug...huh?"

Just when Hikigu Hachiman was saying this.

This time a small shadow appeared from beyond the cemetery.

"Ahh!?"

Isshiroha screamed again, and jumped away from Hikigaya Hachiman.

Hikigaya Hachiman looked towards the shadow, and there was the cat from just now.

"Meow--"

The cat uttered another call as if to say hello, and then returned to the bamboo forest.

After seeing this, Yishiroyu sighed.

"I was taken aback, really——. It's not the relationship between the third party that I can't see that senior said just now. Really, don't tell such a wicked lie!"

"...Yes. It is indeed my fault. It is not good to lie to others."

"It's fine if you understand, if you understand..."

Isshiroha smiled and nodded as if pleased with Hikiya Hachiman's straightforward admission.

"I'll pay attention in the future. Speaking of which, Ishiroha..."

"Ok?"

Hikigaya Hachiman also looked at Isshiroha who tilted his head with a smile on his face.

"Seeing that you stood up quite easily, are your feet okay?"

Isshiroba, who jumped away from Hikigu Hachiman's side because of fright, didn't need any support at all, and didn't show any pain, and stood upright with her two legs.

And the moment Hikigaya Hachiman pointed out this matter, her eyes immediately wandered everywhere.

"Ah—…Maybe he recovered from the shock of the shock just now?"

"This is how simple your body structure is! The only thing that can be cured like that is hiccups!"

/For details, see Chapter 37 of this volume, Hiccup's Ichicolor Feather/

"Wait, wait a minute! This is not a lie! This is... that's right, "Girl's Heart"! I just want to do a sprain and let another princess hug me!"

"I won't listen to the reason for lying! Then come and ride in the trailer, sinner! Come and parade for a week!"

"Wait, wait! It's--I--wrong--yes-no-suppose-!"

The development of things after this time... Under the strong request of Isiroha, or order, please allow Hiki Valley Hachiman to remain silent.
