Chapter 200, Section 197: Bride Simulation Game
Faced with Kaoru, Hachiman was unsure of how to deal with her.
Kaname Rakuna is actually only one year younger than him and is currently studying at Hanasakigawa Girls' Academy.
However, with her innocent appearance and cat-like lifestyle, Hachiman really finds it hard to treat her as a peer.
After a moment's thought, Hachiman switched to "Onii-chan mode".
"I need classmates, but I also need to study. Do you know what studying is?"
Hachiman wrote the two characters "勉強" (meaning "struggle") in the air stroke by stroke, while Kaoruna on the other side just nodded as if she didn't understand.
"Studying, I know, guitar."
Okay, this guy has absolutely no idea...
Based on Rakuna's reaction, Hachiman mentally estimated her psychological age.
He looks fourteen years old, but is actually a seven-year-old elementary school student. Detective Conan... Sorry, wrong channel.
"Hachiman...?"
Seeing that Hachiman hadn't spoken for a long time, he asked Rakuna to turn over, her soft belly pressed against the sofa.
Due to gravity, the collar of her dress sagged down near her neck, revealing her flawless white collarbone.
I'm about to be exposed!
Hachiman wasn't so depraved as to peek at a middle school student's underwear, so he quickly turned his face away.
Unaware of the boy's sensitive thoughts, Kaoru Nai immediately became unhappy.
"Hachiman, look at me...!"
"Sit down first, then we'll talk."
Look at me!!!
Surprisingly, Rakuna also had a temper. She stubbornly held Hachiman's face and tried to forcefully pull his head back.
[A ruthless iron hand catches a chicken that has been crippled!]
"Hikigaya!"
From the other end of the sofa, Shiina Riki's cold voice suddenly came.
"That girl is my junior, so I'm warning you not to mess around. If you dare to bully her, hehe." She crossed her arms and looked down at Hachiman.
Hey, who's bullying whom here?!
"Tachiki, Hachiman didn't bully me." Rakuna let go of her hands and complained to Shiina Tachiki with a pout.
Shiina Tatsuki felt a jolt of anger and was furious.
"Stray cat... I'm speaking up for you, you know that?"
"Don't don't."
Rakuna sat on the sofa with her legs spread apart like a duck, her beautiful heterochromatic eyes fixed on Shiina Ritsuki, who stared back without flinching.
This is a war started by one man, gentlemen, get excited!
Stop trying to sow discord here...
Knowing he was incapable of mediating the conflict between the two parties, Hachiman decisively sought help from Takamatsu Akari.
Light, please save it!
Receiving Hachiman's pleading look, Takamatsu Akari clutched her chest with her right hand: "Tachiki-chan, don't be angry anymore, Ryuna-chan, I'll play with you, okay? Hachiman still needs to study hard for university entrance exams..."
"Well..."
Lena shook her head gently, but her attitude was much better than before.
"Good~"
Takamatsu Akari recalled the scene of comforting the cat, and reached out her lotus root-like little hand to gently rub Kaname Rakuna's snow-white hair.
Now, Le Nai's angry expression had completely vanished; instead, she looked completely relaxed and lay back down on the sofa.
"The light is so comforting."
Is it really that comfortable?
"Ugh~ I can't take it anymore~"
"Then should I be gentler?"
"Hmm~"
Although the scene was heartwarming, Hachiman couldn't help but think, "What terrible dialogue..."
"cut."
Shiina Riki glared at Kaname with an envious look, then crossed her legs and turned her body slightly in another direction.
However, this angle...
[Commander, it's black lace!]
Ahem, thanks for the tip, sniper...
Shiina Tatsuki is surprisingly mature.
Hachiman blinked, as if he was taking notes, and then said to Takamatsu Akari, "Thank you, you've been a great help."
"It's okay," Takamatsu Akari replied while massaging Yoruichi.
"Everyone, the snacks are here."
Nagasaki Motoyo came out of the kitchen with some fruit and some high-end-looking foreign snacks in her hands, intending to sit next to Hachiman, but Aine, being very oblivious, took her seat first.
"Ah, it's my favorite chocolate!"
"..."
Aine's little hands flew quickly as she picked out her favorite snacks, completely unaware that Nagasaki Motoyo's gaze towards her was already as cold as an icebox.
"Aine-chan?"
"Ok?"
Ai Yin, with a cookie in her mouth, turned her head away blankly.
"Never mind, it's nothing."
Nagasaki Motoyo walked around the round table and came to the other side of Hachiman.
"What's wrong, Soyorin?"
"It's really nothing, everyone, let's eat something before we start working."
Nagasaki Motoyo invited everyone to eat snacks and also brewed some black tea.
Hearing that it was brewed with very high-grade tea leaves, Hachiman took a very cautious sip. Clearly, his poor palate couldn't discern the price.
I just think it's a little more fragrant than Suntory black tea, but otherwise it's nothing special. In short, it's far inferior to iced black tea.
The life of the rich is nothing more than this.JPG
Furthermore, although we had agreed to come over and discuss how to cut and modify the team uniforms, after we started eating snacks, we began chatting endlessly about everything from yesterday's TV series to movies.
Some of the topics were specifically for girls, which made Hachiman break out in a sweat.
Learning is simply about getting into a learning mindset.
The living room in the Nagasaki family's house was indeed very large, but there was something strange about it. While reading, Hachiman's lower body would occasionally touch something soft.
Looking back, he realized that Nagasaki Motoyo's right hand had inadvertently rested on his thigh.
Even if he loved reading, how could this hot-blooded young man tolerate such humiliation? He immediately glared at him and shouted angrily.
"Um, my hand..."
"Oh, I'm sorry."
Nagasaki Motoyo pretended nothing had happened and withdrew her hand, but a few minutes later she hooked Hachiman's leg under the table.
Friction, friction. Friction, friction.
You little devil!
Hachiman glanced at Nagasaki Motoyo, who pretended not to notice and turned her head away.
I'm so anxious! How am I supposed to study like this?!
And it's one thing if they don't study, but what if they do start...?
Hachiman lost all interest in studying and, fortunately, started watching short videos. With endless funny videos interspersed with the care of streamers who skirted the edge of reality, he slowly forgot everything around him.
"Look, that man's name is Xiao Shuai, and he has a name like Fu Bo Le..."
Nagasaki Motoyo clicked her tongue inwardly.
Short videos are extremely harmful!
After chatting for almost an hour, Ai-yin finally remembered the team uniform design. At her urging, the girls finally got down to business.
At this point, Hachiman put down his phone and resumed reading.
Occasionally, he would look up and observe the scene: he would see Ai Yin holding a pair of scissors in one hand and referring to a fashion magazine in the other, cutting the clothes she had bought in half.
Whether this bold and unconventional cutting method was reliable or not, Hachiman lost interest after just one glance.
I don't know how much time passed.
Ai Yin lay on the table, drawing out her complaints: "Hey, do you want to play some games? I'm so tired from working all the time."
Nagasaki Motoyo put down the scissors in her hand, her face stern: "Aine-chan, didn't you say we should finish our work first?"
"But you also need to balance work and rest."
“But only an hour has passed…” Gao Songdeng glanced at his watch, looking somewhat troubled. At this rate, he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to finish the clothes even if he worked until midnight.
Ignoring their opinions, Aine took out her phone: "Oh right, let's play Truth or Dare!"
Oysters! Oysters! Oysters!
Hachiman, who suffers from Truth or Dare PTSD, immediately stood up.
Aine & Souyo & Lamp: "?"
Under the strange gazes of the others, Hachiman coughed and sat down again.
"Let's forget about Truth or Dare. It feels a bit outdated."
That's true.
Aine seemed to be thinking about it seriously, and after half a minute, she suggested again: "Then let's play a bride simulation game!"
"Is another name for this bride simulation game 'Playing House'?" Hachiman's lips twitched.
"Hachiman, what's wrong with you? How can this be playing house? I've already said it's a bride simulation, not a wedding simulation."
Aine stood with her hands on her hips, very seriously correcting Hachiman's mistake in thinking.
However, Hachiman thought to himself, "Isn't getting married and having a bride just a matter of a moment?"
Is there a way to become a bride without getting married?
Unable to understand the girl's thought process, Hachiman didn't say much, since he wasn't into it anyway.
"What game is this? It looks really interesting." Nagasaki Motoyo's eyes flickered as she asked, following Aine's suggestion.
"Actually, there's a new app that's been released recently." Before Aine could finish speaking, Hachiman suddenly chuckled.
[O is a OOOO created by OOO]
"Hachiman, what are you laughing at?"
"It's nothing, I'm sorry, please continue."
Ai Yin found it a bit strange, but didn't pay much attention: "Specifically, it simulates some situations that you might encounter after marriage. It's very interesting, and this game is very popular in the community forum."
Aiyin opened her phone and showed everyone the community section about "Bride Simulation Game".
Wang Xiaoju: "The overwhelming positive reviews made me experience the joy of being a woman."
