"Just let things take their course; we're not the only ones trying."

Jiang Nan spoke calmly, as if he were recounting something very ordinary.

"So, you did something, didn't you!"

Yukino Yukinoshita said with absolute certainty.

"Who knows! The school trip is already halfway over, so it's time to focus on ourselves. There's not much point in trying harder now. We should think about what we haven't done yet, like bringing back some local specialties for our families."

Jiang Nan shrugged. It wasn't time to reveal the answer yet.

Hachiman Hikigaya: "I remember now, Komachi asked me to bring her something."

Soon everyone parted ways again.

……

Night was approaching, and another day of travel came to an end.

Hachiman Hikigaya and Kang Nan walked together; this time, it was just the two of them.

Hachiman Hikigaya suddenly spoke up.

"Can you tell me?"

Jiang Nan: "What?"

"what have you done?"

Hachiman Hikigaya is ready to unleash his self-destruction technique.

He won't use it until the very last step.

"Well, who knows!"

"That's it!"

Hachiman Hikigaya fell into deep thought.

Jiang Nan suddenly realized something and looked surprised.

"Does Lao Ba want to create a world where only you get hurt? Damn it, Lao Ba, you're too selfless!"

Hikigaya Hachiman: "..."

The two soon arrived at the convenience store.

Jiang Nan looked at the freezer next to her containing drinks.

"What would you like to drink, Lao Ba? Would you like coffee? If you drink coffee, you can have a long talk with Totsuka tonight..."

Hachiman Hikigaya pointed to the green tea beside him.

"Let's do this!"

"Then I'll choose soda."

Jiang Nan took two bottles of water and prepared to go to the counter to pay.

I said, "Can we talk?"

A clear, crisp female voice suddenly came from behind them.

The female voice gave off a somewhat aloof feeling, like a queen.

Jiang Nan turned around and saw Yumiko, the blonde beauty from the "normie group," standing behind them.

"Hey, isn't this the little kid I made cry last time?!"

"You're really infuriating."

Yumiko Miura stomped her feet and said angrily, clearly still holding a grudge about what happened last time.

If possible, she wouldn't want to have too much interaction with Jiang Nan.

"Talk?"

"The two of us?"

Jiang Nan pointed to himself and Hachiman Hikigaya.

Yumiko Miura nodded.

……

Outside the convenience store.

The light shone through the glass, illuminating the darkness.

The three people, who would never cross paths, stood there like this.

Yumiko Miura was the first to speak.

"I said, can you guys please stop meddling in other people's business?"

"I don't quite understand what you're saying!"

Jiang Nan spoke casually.

He looks absolutely awful.

Yumiko Miura took a deep breath, trying to appear calm.

"Can you please stop interfering in Ebina's affairs?"

Hachiman Hikigaya frowned slightly.

He had considered the complexity of the matter and the possibility that someone might contact him.

But he didn't expect it to be Yumiko Miura.

Jiang Nan narrowed his eyes like a fox.

"I didn't do anything!"

"They're clearly doing it; I'm not blind."

Yumiko Miura was a little angry.

Jiang Nan: "What if I refuse? What can you do then? You seem to be unable to do anything, don't you?"

"You idiot, do you find it so funny to ruin other people's friendships?"

Yumiko Miura wasn't stupid; she sensed the unusual atmosphere within her group.

Especially Ebina Hime.

In addition, the Service Department provided assistance, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

This made Yumiko Miura feel a sense of crisis.

The queen, who is high and mighty, actually cherishes her friends very much.

She didn't want the friendships within her group to be ruined.

"Oh dear! Don't make me sound like some heinous villain, don't you think? Eighth Brother."

Jiang Nan put his arm around Hachiman Hikigaya's shoulder.

Hachiman Hikigaya nodded.

Yumiko Miura was angry, just as she had expected before she came. She didn't get along with the boy who had once made her cry with a tennis ball.

Because the other party can always take the initiative.

"Even if you mean well, your actions have caused trouble for others."

Yumiko Miura continued.

At this moment, Hachiman Hikigaya spoke up to explain: "But someone wants us to do this."

This naturally refers to Hubu Xiang.

Yumiko Miura frowned, then composed herself and slowly began to speak.

"Listen carefully, I didn't want to tell you this kind of thing, but when Ebina is not talking, she is quite popular with boys. Many people want me to introduce her to them, but every time I try to introduce her, they politely decline..."

"Ebina never mentions herself, and I don't ask her about it. She probably doesn't like people prying into her life..."

"I'm quite happy right now, so can you guys please mind your own business?"

Yumiko Miura expressed her thoughts.

Maintaining the current relationship, resulting in stagnation.

Simple happiness.

"Your idea reminds me of a very interesting person who pursues eternity and immutability, which is very similar to your ideas."

Jiang Nan spoke up.

We strive for permanence, but the world is constantly moving forward.

The world itself is a variable; nothing is ever truly permanent.

Yumiko Miura: "Then what do you mean?"

"Don't worry, the ending I've written is perfect, so relax! There won't be any trouble."

Jiang Nan always had a smile on his face, a smile that seemed to indicate he was in control of everything.
