Does gravity make me stronger?

The other person gave a playful look. Although what he said was true, Hachiman felt that the headmaster had misunderstood something.

"Is this really okay? Won't it be too much trouble for you, Principal?"

"It's nothing. There are still many rooms in the dormitory. They were originally meant for students anyway, so there's no point in leaving them empty."

The principal is so generous!

"Can I check in next week?"

"..."

The atmosphere at the scene froze instantly upon hearing this.

Hachiman felt a pang of regret, because things had gone too smoothly, and he had become somewhat overconfident.

So, to ease the awkward atmosphere, he immediately corrected himself, saying, "Oh, I'm sorry, Principal, I misspoke. Actually..."

"Checking in next week is fine too."

"what?"

The principal stood up from the sofa and said seriously, "However, I have one condition."

"condition?"

"Hikigaya Tokugaku, you should know that this year is the first year that Hagoromo Academy is accepting male students, right?"

"Yes."

Hachiman nodded blankly, mentally analyzing why the principal would ask such a question.

Suddenly, a terrifying thought formed in his mind.

He said, "I can let that student move in next week, but on the condition that you do better than all the girls in our grade in this final exam. Can you do that?"

...

After leaving the office, Hachiman felt completely dazed, as if he had betrayed himself to the devil.

Honestly, the boys in the school are basically negligible; to outperform all the girls, you basically need to be number one.

[Hachiman-kun, you actually agreed to that?]

That's right, Hachiman agreed to the principal's conditions.

This was a gentleman's agreement. Even if he didn't get first place in the grade, the principal still agreed to let Xiangzi move into the dormitory. But in doing so, he became the one who broke the agreement.

Honesty is an important virtue. Hachiman admits that he can lie, but he has never broken a promise since he was a child.

This is tantamount to putting oneself on a moral high ground.

But this also has its advantages. Xiangzi can move into a dormitory and leave that terrible rented room. In addition, if he succeeds, he will receive a large scholarship.

Hachiman felt it was entirely worthwhile, provided it was successful.

So why did the principal want him to get first place in the grade?

The answer is simple: the other party has already explained all the reasons.

This year marks the first year that Haneoka Academy has become a co-educational school, and the results of the first year are often the most important. However, in the last midterm exam, apart from Hachiman, the deviation scores of the other boys were really terrible.

While he might not resign because of this incident, as the main implementer of this plan, the principal must bear some responsibility.

At the very least, they'd lose face.

That's why the principal decided to take a gamble on him.

In addition, Hachiman also viewed the principal's actions as an investment in him.

However, the condition for this investment is being ranked first in the grade, which is quite difficult...

In the last exam, Hachiman performed steadily in humanities subjects, but made great progress in science subjects, and his overall ranking finally reached forty.

However, the difficulty of going from single digits to 50 or 60 points is completely different from that of going from 50 or 60 points to 80 or 90 points.

He can easily climb from the bottom of the grade to fortieth place, but that doesn't mean he can climb to the top.

Over the next month, he will have to spend more time on his studies, and he will also need to reconsider his synchronization partner.

Hachiman's brain was working at lightning speed. In just a few seconds, he took out his phone and sent a message to someone he didn't know very well in his contacts.

...

At four o'clock in the afternoon, all the clubs at Haneoka Academy were active.

Although there was still a month until the final exams, the vast majority of students were unwilling to give up their club time and continued to enjoy their rosy high school life. Only a few students left the school due to special circumstances.

Hachiman is one of them.

Upon arriving at the school gate, a long black sedan swaggered to the main entrance, drawing envious yet somewhat puzzled glances from many nearby students.

Whose car is this?

There are quite a few wealthy women at Haneoka Academy, but they generally don't flaunt it like this. This kind of extravagant style is more like that of the neighboring Shuchiin Academy.

Some people have heard that after school every day, the number of luxury cars parked at the school gate of Shuchiin Academy could form a top-of-the-line fleet.

Upon seeing the black sedan, Hachiman couldn't help but rub his temples. He seemed to have forgotten to tell the other person to keep a low profile...

Seriously, are all rich people this domineering when they go home?

Approach the car, act as if nothing is wrong, and use the car body as cover to block most of the students' view.

"You're the one who asked me out, yet you made me wait for so long. Is this your social etiquette? It's worse than what you've ever done!"

The car window slowly rolled down, and a cold, detached voice came from the spacious rear seat.

"I'm sorry, something came up and I was delayed."

Hachiman solemnly apologized to the beautiful girl with long, straight black hair, but she looked displeased and said indifferently, "Get in the car."

Can I really get on the bus?

Hachiman glanced at the golden angel on the front of the car; it was the first time he had ever ridden in such a luxurious vehicle.

Kaguya Shinomiya tucked her long, ink-black hair behind her ear and said in a deep voice, "If you're still spacing out, I don't mind sending you into Tokyo Bay to think."

"..."

Judging from her serious expression, it seemed that if Hachiman hesitated for a few more seconds, a group of men in black would really rush out, tie him up, and throw him into Tokyo Bay.

Although I already knew that Kaguya Shinomiya was no ordinary person, I was surprised that she could ride in such an outrageously expensive car. Could she really be the young lady of the Shinomiya family?

Hachiman swallowed hard, and under Kaguya Shinomiya's icy gaze, slowly opened the car door.

Chapter 206, page 203: Anxious core fans seem...

Upon entering the back seat of the car, a pleasant, light fragrance wafts out. Unlike cheap perfumes, this scent is very subtle and elegant, and combined with the quiet atmosphere inside the car, it makes one relax effortlessly.

Before he could let his guard down, a figure appearing in his line of sight immediately made him tense.

There was another girl inside the car.

She sat in the center, separating Hachiman and Kaguya Shinomiya.

She had long golden hair, bright blue eyes, and a somewhat indifferent expression.

The girl was wearing a blue and white sailor uniform, with a specially shortened pleated skirt below, revealing a pair of beautiful legs gracefully crossed at an angle.

Seeing Hachiman's sharp gaze, the other woman shyly lowered her skirt slightly.

How should I put it? She has a bit of a tea-tea vibe, but she's very cute.

Hey, doesn't this kid look familiar...?

The Eagle Eye panel, which was switched to at will, clearly showed the other party's true identity.

Name: Hayasaka Ai

Oh, it's Hayasaka Ai...

Although he didn't know why Hayasaka Ai was dressed like that, he still greeted her.

"Hello, Hayasaka-san."

"!?"

Hayasaka Ai in her Hasaka form felt her heart leap into her throat, as if it had frozen, and her entire body stiffened.

Her disguise was so easily seen through?

Speaking of which, why did Hayasaka Ai choose to attack in her Hasaka form?

This takes us back to half an hour ago.

Xiuzhiyuan, Archery Department.

With a "whoosh," an arrow pierced the air and struck the red target in the distance. Amidst the screams of admiration from the surrounding crowd, Kaguya Shinomiya slowly put away her bow and returned to the dressing room.

At that moment, Hayasaka Ai emerged from the shadows.

"Is there a problem?"

"Kaguya-sama, that man needs your help."

"Hikigaya?"

"Yes."

After receiving a signal from Kaguya Shinomiya, Ai Hayasaka opened Hachiman's Line interface.

To Kaguya's displeasure, the request did not explicitly state the purpose of the request; it only stated that they hoped to meet with her.

"Hachiman Hikigaya, is this guy misunderstanding something?"

Kaguya Shinomiya handed the phone back to Ai Hayasaka, muttering coldly, "Does this guy think that after what happened at the LiveHouse, our relationship is good?"

To put it bluntly, Kaguya Shinomiya always assumes the worst of people.

As for Hachiman Hikigaya, Kaguya Shinomiya initially only regarded him as a man who knew how to use his cleverness. However, after experiencing that thrilling (in Kaguya's opinion) performance at the Starry Night Concert Hall, her image of him became somewhat more positive.

but!

That bastard made her wait so long and still didn't get a signed photo with Mygo!

It's freaking flying!

Speaking of which, during the last performance, Hachiman seemed to be exchanging glances with Motoyo (Kaguya Shinomiya had found out all the members' information). Could these two be secretly dating?

How can this be!

Mygo belongs to me...and everyone!

Beside her, Hayasaka Ai's lips twitched. She realized that her young mistress seemed to be planning something, but what was the reason?

"Kaguya-sama..."

Kaguya Shinomiya, chin in hand, quickly calmed her unusually excited emotions. Her eyes flickered slightly: "Have him wait at the school gate."

Hayasaka Ai was somewhat surprised, as she had thought that the two of them would become strangers after the last performance.

Nobody expected that...

Oops, sorry for the mix-up.

"Is Kaguya-sama going to see him?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Okay, you should get ready too."

"I?"

Even though she was very familiar with Kaguya Shinomiya's temperament, Ai Hayasaka still couldn't understand what the other was thinking at that moment.

However, upon seeing the black aura emanating from Kaguya Shinomiya, she immediately understood.

Kaguya-sama is so petty...

Hachiman must have offended Kaguya Shinomiya somewhere, and she's always been one to hold a grudge. This time, that guy's going to be in trouble.

"Then I'll go change my clothes."

Hayasaka Ai quickly switched to her lively and adorable Hasaka form.

As instructed by Kaguya Shinomiya, she needed to play the role of a sassy, ​​tea-loving girl, then seduce Hachiman Hikigaya, and finally catch him cheating.

I'm making her do this again...

Hayasaka Ai reluctantly folded her pleated skirt up a little, revealing a dazzling display of her fair thighs, but in reality, she didn't like showing too much skin.
