Why does the Ruined King still fall in love?

"But having said that, I'm happy to be able to live with Hachiman, huh?...But I can't whisper or touch like before..."

"I will return this sentence untouched."

Hikigu Hachiman couldn't refute this sentence, but his reaction was not as extreme as Tsurumi Rumi's.

Because Tsurumi Rumi would curl up in panic whenever her weakness was encountered, so Hikigu Hachiman was often thinking about which step to do.

Because Tsurumi Rumi is the type who will run away and lose his temper if it is overdone, it is a bit difficult to grasp the degree.

"Because I don't have a weakness like Rumi, so I won't be so timid?"

"T-I dare to say it. I also want to make Hachiman unbearable!"

"...So Rumi-chan can't stand it?"

Hikigaya Hachiman smiled at Tsurumi Rumi, who confusedly revealed to him that ears were a weakness, and Tsurumi Rumi blushed and regretted that she had said something she shouldn't have said.

Originally, Hikigaya Hachiman knew that Tsurumi Rumi would lose strength if he touched her ears or whispered in a low voice, and now he felt it even more, but he didn't seem to want Tsurumi Rumi to know.

It may be that he himself is such a type of person, or it may be other reasons.

"...In this case, it seems that there is no other way to make Hachiman fascinated?"

"It's like being in a dream now, what can I do to make my heart move more...?"

For the time being, it's unbearable, but under the circumstances that Tsurumi Rumi has completely taken Hikiya Hachiman's attention unconsciously, it is very difficult to make Hikiya Hachiman even more fascinated.

If I now receive more passionate love from Tsurumi Rumi, I guess I can't go outside for the time being, right?

"...Hachiman can say such cunning things too..."

"Well, although I can't say I'm not shy, I often hear people say that if I don't communicate well, I will easily get awkward. After all, it doesn't matter what you say when you date, and as a human being, you should try to communicate with each other?"

Even if you like each other, it's not enough to just express it with an attitude. Only by frankly conveying it before you get awkward will there be no unnecessary dissatisfaction and pressure.

If all kinds of disputes can be eliminated only by communication, labor should not be stingy, let alone Bikigu Hachiman doesn't think it is a kind of labor at all.

Although there are reasons why I don't want to pass by, but if I express my feelings very frankly, Rumi Tsurumi will show a very cute reaction, and Hikigaya Hachiman also enjoys it.

But Hikiya Hachiman himself would never say it in front of Tsurumi Rumi anyway.

"...I just like the fact that you are very rational, Hachiman..."

"That's really thankful. ...Rumi has said a lot of things about me since we dated, right?"

"This, this is that, because I like it so much that I can't help but say it..."

"......Um."

Judging from Tsurumi Rumi's shy and low-pitched manner, these words should not be flattering at all, right?

And after all, Tsurumi Rumi would never say compliments to Bi Kigu Hachiman at all.

After all, his tone of voice was always quite awkward before the relationship, not to mention that he is completely obsessed with Bikigu Hachiman now, so he should only speak the truth.

And it is precisely because this kind of sincere words are more embarrassing than casual ones, Tsurumi Rumi finally noticed Hikigu Hachiman's evasive gaze.

"Is Hachiman shy now?"

"What, can't you?"

"No, I just feel that I finally won once today..."

"...Finally, what, today is just the beginning?"

"Then it looks like I'm going to get a lot of leadership from Hachiman..."

"I don't think this is realistic?"

"What are you talking about! Idiot Hachiman..."

"All of this is within my usual expectations."

"...Then let me surprise Hachiman this time, okay?"

"Well, come on, shall we?"

Although Hikigu Hachiman hopes that Tsurumi Rumi's sincere words should be appropriate, but since Tsurumi Rumi is going to convey that she likes Bikigu Hachiman so much, this should be impossible.

After Hikigaya Hachiman showed Tsurumi Rumi the attitude of "If you can do it, just let the horse come here", Tsurumi Rumi smiled confidently for some reason, and took out a corrugated cardboard box from the table. plastic box.

"Let me surprise Hachiman?"

"Wait, where did this come from?!"

Hikigaya Hachiman immediately understood what Tsurumi Rumi had brought out.Inside the plastic box was a disk with the words "Growth Record One Year Old" written on it with an oil-based pen.

Hikigaya Hachiman wanted to complain fiercely the moment he saw it. This kind of surprise is not too much.

This thing is the masterpiece of his sister Hikigaya Komachi, and it records his dark history in the name of recording his brother's growth.

Not only did she record the things that happened when the siblings were together, but Hikigaya Komachi, who was a bit overly controlled by her brother, also sorted out the videos in her parents' video recorders, and forcibly put together things about Hikigaya Hachiman that she had never personally witnessed before she was born. a disk.

"I got it from Komachi's collection!"

"Um...why did Komachi leave it to Rumi?"

"She said, 'If you're bored, it's good to watch this'. She also gave me DVDs of various radio dramas..."

Kenjo Komachi is the type who knows about popular movies, so he has a large inventory of DVDs. Although it is really good for killing time, it is definitely not necessary to hand over home videos to Tsurumi Rumi..... .

Well, with the current relationship between myself and Tsurumi Rumi, there seems to be nothing wrong with watching home videos among family members.

Moreover, Komachi, himself and Tsurumi Rumi once looked through the family photo album of the Hikigaya family, and now it's okay to look at the video.

But in any case, this matter has already happened, and Hikigu Hachiman can only sigh inwardly.

"...Well, does Hachiman hate watching these things?"

"It's not that I hate it, it's just that seeing this home video full of my dark history is really complicated..."

It’s too late to say anything because I’ve already shown her the photo album, but there is still a world of difference between the photos and the video.

Although Hikigaya Hachiman felt that no matter what he said, there should not be too many scenes of his shame, but because the opponent is Komachi, he has no credibility at all.

Although Hikigu Hachiman is a bit reluctant, but if Tsurumi Rumi wants to see it, he can agree, but at least he wants to review it in advance.

"Is what I did really so excessive?"

"I used to be more than Rumi you imagined... well, how should I put it, a gloomy brat...?"

"Is it the Hachiman of the indoor (indoor) school?"

"Why do I feel that there is something in your words... At that time, I was just a very ordinary child, at most I pretended to understand."

After all, no matter how precocious, how gloomy can an age who can't even speak clearly be?It's all about worrying about writing new words, but the true autism started in junior high school.

"Then... I want to see it even more. Did Hachiman smile sweetly and greet the people nearby when he was a child?"

"Well, I think it's great that they're all so nice..."

Although I started to show a look of being out of place when I was a child, the adults who had seen him did not sneer at him or anything.

"I thought Hachiman was very cute when I was a child!"

"...It's not impossible to see it if you want to, but I don't think there is anything worthy of your pleasure."

"How come! I can see aspects of Hachiman that I don't know, I think it's great!"

"...you can do whatever you like."

Because Rumi Tsurumi seemed to be in a very good mood holding the box, it was no better than Kigu Hachiman to stop her.

He endured some emotion and shame and told Tsurumi Rumi to do as she liked.

"Because I hardly had the environment to take pictures or film when I was a child, I think it is very good to be able to look at the things left by the past like now."

Facing Tsurumi Rumi who was holding the disk case and murmuring in a low voice, Hikigaya Hachiman looked at Tsurumi Rumi pretending not to care.

Although her voice doesn't sound particularly lost, the loneliness is palpable just by looking at her smile.

But on top of that, Bikigu Hachiman immediately saw the expression of being stung by the old wound.

Tsurumi Rumi couldn't help biting her lips thinking about her mother's neglect of her. For Tsurumi Rumi now, it must be very troublesome for her to have such anger in her heart.

Therefore, Hikiya Hachiman swore in his heart that he would never let Tsurumi Rumi feel this kind of loneliness again.

What's more, Tsurumi Rumi's loneliness in the past has a lot to do with him... After all, Mrs. Tsurumi will raise Tsurumi Rumi only because of him. To let a woman raise a daughter who is not her own, just Being willing to be nurturing is great, and asking to be emotionally involved is too much.

"...Is Rumi the one who wants to keep memories of her childhood?"

"Because it would be lonely if I have nothing, so I still want to leave something behind. Whether it is a good memory or a bad memory, objectively speaking, it has become a part of my growth process."

"That's it, then it's impossible not to leave something behind at this time."

Hikigaya Hachiman took the disk case from Tsurumi Rumi and put it into the projector.

Although Hikigu Hachiman doesn't know what will be released, but Hikigu Hachiman has already made up his mind, and he is sure that it will not shake him.

Do you think something is wrong, after Hikigaya Hachiman put the disk into the projector, he returned to the side of Tsurumi Rumi who was sitting on the sofa, and found that Tsurumi Rumi's very pure eyes were staring at him with wide eyes.

"what happened?"

"No, no, nothing...?"

Tsurumi Rumi rolled her eyes, put away her various expressions and smiled, as if she wasn't ashamed at all being seen.

She coughed a few times and turned her gaze back to the DVD.

The thoughts in my heart are all written on my face...it's too cute, Rumi-chan...

Just when Hikigaya Hachiman was feeling the intense and fiery emotion deep in his heart, Rumi Tsurumi beside him kept twisting her body and smiling.

"It's quite funny. This is a video of me when I was a child. Well, no matter who is a child of this age, he will think it is very cute."

Although the person in the DVD is himself, Hikigaya Hachiman still feels a little bit emotional. The one in the video is not much different from ordinary children, but he is quieter and less active, and finally grows into what he is today.

"...It's cute. Although the current Hachiman has traces of that time, but the current Hachiman is indeed more gentle! Although sometimes cold, but I also like it!"

Have you cheered up again? Hikigaya Hachiman replied to Tsurumi Rumi who was looking at the video and whispering:

"Well, it seems that the eyes are a bit dark now."

The figure of talking with the neighbor who walks the dog in the street, the figure of playing innocently with several children including Hikigaya Hachiman, and the self who is happy to start riding the bicycle again. To those scenes that remain in memory.

The conversation just now was only temporary, but Tsurumi Rumi, who was obsessed with TV, had completely forgotten that Hikigaya Hachiman was by her side.

Although I only watched it for an hour, it seems that the content has passed for several years.

In the video, the young Hikigu Hachiman's high voice conveyed his happy mood.

Hikigaya Hachiman saw himself covered in mud in the summer and Komachi who was covering his mouth and giggling next to him, and felt emotional that he still had such a time.

"...Hachiman, you were more naughty than I expected when you were young..."

"After all, I'm just a child. After being reprimanded by my mother in various ways, she became obedient after asking not to spoil Komachi... Wait, Rumi, don't read the next one."

When the image moved to the corridor of the house, Hikigaya Hachiman seemed to have remembered something and hastily picked up the remote control and pressed the pause button.

Chapter 80 Tsurumi Rumi's Indoor Session

Because it happened in an instant, Tsurumi Rumi was stunned, but from here on, you will see some extra things that will affect your reputation, and it is also for the sake of Tsurumi, Hikigu Hachiman still chooses not to give it to him. she looks.

"Hey, why did you stop?"

"No, I don't think it's good after this. It's not so much my shame, but something that makes Rumi more shy."

"...Really? Isn't it just that Hachiman doesn't want to show me?"

"Ah, there is a reason for this, but it's not. Rumi will become unable to look at me directly."

As far as Hikigu Hachiman is concerned, he doesn't want to show it to her now, and he can't show it to her.And if Tsurumi Rumi really saw it, she would be speechless for a while.

Hikigaya Hachiman was annoyed by how he explained to Tsurumi Rumi, who had messy eyes, but he still felt that it would be clearer to say it directly, so Hikigaya Hachiman sighed.

"...So, in front of the corridor is the bathroom, I think Rumi can understand it. This is the image of taking a full bath in the bathroom."

Komachi cared about everything about him since he was a child, so he did a lot of excessive things because of his doting.

"Although they are children who can be counted with one slap, does Rumi want to see a man's naked body?"

Hikigaya Hachiman looked at Tsurumi Rumi while saying this, she seemed to freeze unexpectedly.

Although Hikiya Hachiman wants to accuse Komachi of what she left behind, but she is not here now, so she has no way of knowing for the time being.

"...Sorry, sorry!"
