I, Hikigaya, the snake of the red world god's ritual!

"This..." Yuigahama was stunned for a moment, and then said with an uncertain face, "Aqi, are you really an expert in mysticism?"

"Well, I'm not an expert, but I do have some research."

After hearing Hikigaya's words, Yuigahama suddenly no longer had any doubts. He returned to the room and brought over a tattered doll.

During the process, Hikigaya felt the fear emanating from the puppet, and after entering his hands, the puppet completely stopped moving.

"Then it's time for me to go back."

At this point, Hikigaya has accomplished his goal.

He believed that he had won half of the bet with Shana. As long as he continued to explore, he would be able to get the remaining half sooner or later.

So, he turned his head with satisfaction and prepared to leave the home of the girl in his class.

"wait!!"

Yuigahama saw this and immediately grabbed his collar.

"What...for what?"

Facing Hikigaya's inquiry, Yuigahama herself was stunned. She struggled for a while before finally squeezing out the words from her lips with a flushed face:

"Come on, at least after dinner..."

Chapter 21 Let’s go eat ramen together

Chapter 21

Yuigahama Yui forced her to stay for dinner. As expected, Hikigaya met Yuigahama Yui's mother in the process.

Although the other party was his mother, she looked like Yuigahama's sister, and her attitude towards him was inexplicably high. This really made Hikigaya's heart beat faster and he felt a serious sense of guilt.

So without eating a few mouthfuls of food, Hikigaya found an excuse and left in a hurry.

As a result, Yuigahama Yui, who was wearing plain clothes, hurriedly caught up with her from behind before she had walked a few steps.

"Why did you just run away, idiot A Qi!"

"Why did the title become derogatory?"

"Who told you not to listen to others? I clearly said I would make some snacks for you."

"Ah, that, I forgot."

Hikigaya spoke casually, without admitting that he had an inexplicable intuition in his heart and a sense of urgency that something bad would happen if he didn't leave, so he chose to leave in a hurry.

He remembered that he was given a special sixth sense by the ritual snake.Speaking of which, let the sixth sense come out to remind you to leave quickly. What level of biochemical weapon is Yuigahama's snack?

I can't even imagine it...

When Hikigaya had random thoughts in his mind, Yuigahama suddenly looked at the street aside and said in a strange tone:

"By the way, Ah Qi, let me ask you, do you still remember the day of the opening ceremony?"

"The opening ceremony? I didn't attend...I had a car accident that day."

"really……"

"Why, you also know? On the first day of school, when I was riding a bicycle to school, I met an idiot who didn't tighten the chain of the puppy's collar, so I had to rush to save the puppy when it was about to be hit by a car. I was just like Like a hero who appears just in time, he’s super handsome.”

There was no one around anyway, so Hikigaya added fuel to the fire and boasted about his deeds without a care in the world.

Yuigahama's expression twitched after hearing this, and he didn't speak for a while.

Just when Hikigaya thought that the other party would want to complain about him, Yuigahama asked a completely different question.

"Hospital...Aqi, you were sent to the hospital later, right?"

"Yes."

"Do you remember what happened in the hospital?"

"..."

Yuigahama's inexplicable words aroused Hikigaya Hachiman's vigilance, because he was sure that he had heard a similar question from another person.

Yukinoshita Yukino also asked this question on his first day at the Service Club.

Why do you ask yourself about the hospital?

What do Yuigahama and Yukinoshita know about this?

"I can't remember most of what happened after I was sent to the hospital, but maybe someone knows what happened at that time..."

"it is as expected."

"Do you know anything?"

"No, I don't know... I just remember that I was panicking and feeling very guilty... I had a lot of random thoughts... but suddenly the whole world seemed to be on fire... and then, then..."

Yuigahama did not continue.

But Hikigaya had heard a lot from it.

Something unusual happened after I was sent to the hospital in a car accident that day. In addition to the arrival of the ritual snake, something else probably happened...

So what role did you play in the car accident?

"Aqi?"

"Ahem, forget it, I can't remember it anyway. By the way, why were you panicking and feeling guilty at that time?"

"Eh? Did I say such a thing?"

"do not have it?"

"Ahaha, I probably made a mistake."

Seeing the confused look on Yuigahama Yui's face, Hikigaya didn't press any further. He was still thinking about things related to the car accident.

Unfortunately, the relevant parts of his memory seemed to be affected by something, and there was no feedback at all. In the end, he could only shake his head helplessly and treat this as an unsolved mystery.

……

In the following time, Hikigaya kept looking for traces of the Red Demon King.

Instead of going home, he found an excuse to wander around Chiba, observing the city with the unique perspective given to him by the ritual snake.

It was only at this moment that Hikigaya had a clear grasp of Chiba's current situation, and found that tens of thousands of people in the entire city had been turned into torches, or had disappeared.

If it were not for the power given to him by the Ritual Snake, Hikigaya would probably be like the people around him, witnessing the sudden disappearance of the people around him without knowing it, spending every day as usual, until one day doom strikes and the sad ending appear on oneself.

But now, now that he has the power, Hikigaya will not sit still and wait for death, and is determined to find out the traces of the Red Demon King before he interferes in his life.

Of course, even though he said he wanted to find the opponent, Hikigaya still had no intention of fighting the Red Demon King on his own.

After all, he has never fought against the Red Devil, and he doesn't know if his current half-empty skills can defeat a terrifying existence that has swallowed tens of thousands of people.

Therefore, Hikigaya decided to let the Fire Mist Warrior named Shana test the depth of the enemy.

Anyway, the character of the Fire Mist Warrior is that of a righteous and awe-inspiring person. If you tell the information yourself, the other party will have to thank you.

And seemingly out of nowhere, when Hikigaya was walking in the school corridor, the familiar figure of the Fire Mist Warrior girl appeared in front of him.

Then, there is only one choice at this moment...

"Why did you turn around and run away! Did you think I was a monster?!"

If only it were just a monster.

In most cases, Hikigaya is more afraid of people than ghosts.

Now that he had been discovered, Hikigaya had to look directly at the other person, and found that not only Shana was standing in front of him, but also two surprising figures.

"Shana, Yuji Sakai...and who is this?"

The girl raised her head with a smile, a braid tied on her chest, and said with a bright smile: "Hello, I am the current student president of this school, and I am patrolling the city."

"Student president?"

Unexpectedly, he would be the student council president. Hikigaya looked at the trio in front of him in confusion. For a while, he couldn't figure out how these three people got together.

A Fire Mist Warrior, a Torch, and a Student Council President... Is this some kind of super-powered comedy team?

"It seems that we should all introduce ourselves to each other first." Seeing this, Shiro Kaikou said with a smile, "How about this, the school cafeteria has half-price ramen today, let's go eat ramen together. I heard that eating together improves our relationship. A wonderful recipe.”

Wow, what the hell is this guy?Why can it naturally exude such a happy atmosphere?

He is simply the natural enemy of a lone ranger like me!

Hikigaya was greatly wary.

But the thought of being able to eat ramen at half price.

Forget it, it smells so good!

Chapter 22 Why not ask Hikigaya-kun?

Chapter 22

School canteen.

Hikigaya, Sakai Yuji, Shana, and Jogwaru were sitting on both sides of the seats, with two men sitting on one side and two women sitting on the other side.

"Why do I want to eat with these two guys?" Shana was the first to speak coldly.

Did you say it at this time?This guy is [-]% tsundere.

Hikigaya couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"Okay, okay, Shana-chan, don't be so impatient. Don't you want to ask me for help? Just think of this as part of obtaining information." Shiro Kauchou squinted his eyes and said with a smile.

"Get information?"

Hikigaya was shocked when he heard the words about the castle patrol.

He was obviously surprised that the student council president, who looked like an ordinary person, but was actually an ordinary person, actually had information that even the Fire Mist Warriors needed.

What's happening here?

Although he really wanted to ask questions, considering that he was now an 'unfathomable senior Fire Mist Warrior' in Shana's heart, in order to prevent this image from being shattered, he could only forcibly endure the intention of asking.

Fortunately, he was not the only one at the scene who was unclear about the situation. Yuji Sakai beside him also said with a confused look on his face: "What are you talking about, Joukai-senpai? What is obtaining information?"

"Well, none of the people here should be outsiders, so I'll just tell you the truth." The city patrol said calmly, "I am a member of the Chiba Outer Dormitory Organization, and I am also here to connect with the Fire Mist Warriors. principal."

"Outside accommodation?"

Not only was Sakai Yuji confused by this term, but Hikigaya also didn't quite understand it.

But he understood that this should be an official organization that the Fire Mist Warriors must know, and he must not show any incomprehensible questioning attitude.

Fortunately, Sakai Yuji seemed to have the consciousness of a tool man, and asked again: "Well, can you tell me what the so-called external source refers to?"

"Of course." The City Patrol paused and organized some words, "The so-called outside accommodation was an informal organization first established by the Fire Mist Warrior [Dream Player]. It was originally just a hiding place for escape, and occasionally The chat room-like tavern that we just walked in and sat in gradually turned into a support facility that provides services such as information exchange and sharing, event fund assistance, and quick and efficient transportation arrangements.”

"Nowadays, the external hosts need to provide the Fire Mist Warriors with information about the Red World Apostles in various places, and provide the Fire Mist Warriors with funds and various logistical support for their operations. Moreover, the main members of the external hosts are all ordinary humans like me, so The human identity helps the Fire Mist Warriors complete their mission of defeating the Red World Apostle."

Oh, so you are the human troops flying airplanes in Ultraman?

Hikigaya quickly completed his imagination of the outside world.

After Sakai Yuji understood, he suddenly thought of a question and couldn't help but say: "By the way, Joukai-senpai, you said there are no outsiders here, are you talking about Hikigaya?"

"That's right, Hikigaya must be a Fire Mist Warrior as well." Jougou said and looked over, "I've heard Shana-chan mention you several times before, and I've wanted to say hello for a long time."

"Ok?"

"I didn't mention him!!"

Yes, yes, I know you are a tsundere.

Hikigaya shook his head and said calmly: "When you mention me, are you talking bad about me?"

"Of course not. She said that your ideas are very special, and you sometimes realize them in such a way that she admires them..."

"stop!"

Before he could finish his words, Shana interrupted him.
