[Because I also suffer from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), I feel like I see a reflection of myself in Rikka.]

[But unlike Rikka in the anime, I don't have Yuuta by my side; I'm always alone, and all my classmates are full of malice.]

[When I go to the toilet, I get splashed with cold water, people scribble on the table, people block me in the toilet and kick me, and trash is thrown at me...]

Looking at the extremely depressing content, Masamune fell silent.

No matter how you look at it, these words don't seem like a joke.

Or rather, most people wouldn't make such a joke.

The final signature is "Witch from Another World".

"You don't need to worry about it, leave this to me."

"President, what are you planning to do?"

"Let me investigate first. If it's true, I'll help her transfer schools."

"However, the letter did not contain any contact information, nor did it include the sender's address, name, or other personal information."

"Don't worry, one letter is enough. You have to trust the private investigator's abilities."

......

"What's wrong, President Hayase? I'm currently writing a novel."

At night, Hachiman Hikigaya, who was writing at home, suddenly received a call from Masamune Hayase.

[This isn't a deadline request. Just need to take half a day off tomorrow morning and come with me somewhere.]

"Sure, but why? And what for?"

[Materials collected.]

"Chuunibyou?"

[Almost. I need you to write a new light novel, a short story, the kind that's only one volume long.]

[I've already sent you the story synopsis to your email. Please take a look first. We'll go to the story's location tomorrow morning to gather material.]

"it is good."

Hachiman Hikigaya did not refuse and readily agreed.

Hayase is very generous, and the profits this time should be split 50/50. Compared to that, taking half a day off is really nothing.

After hanging up the phone, Hachiman Hikigaya saved and closed the document, opened his email, downloaded the file sent by Hayase to his desktop, and began to browse it carefully.

The title at the top is "Koga the Demon Dragon's Last Battle".

Is it an isekai (another world) fantasy genre?

Just as he was thinking this, his attention was completely drawn to the text below.

The male protagonist, Ichiro Sato, like Yuuta Tomi, was once a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferer. After entering high school, he plans to integrate into the group and start over.

Not long after entering high school, he met a girl with a name very similar to his own, Sato Ryoko.

The girl claims to be from another world and is a working adult suffering from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome).

However, unlike Ginkgo Academy, this anime has a very dark tone, and many people around the female protagonist are full of malice, which is the so-called bullying.

The male protagonist suffered from severe bullying during middle school due to his chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), but his parents not only failed to understand him, but also beat him up.

In his parents' view, it takes two to tango, and the fact that he was being bullied was the reason for his abnormal behavior.

They kept telling him to be normal, and when that failed, they thought there might be something wrong with his brain. Later, they even went so far as to order him to have an electroencephalogram (EEG) test.

After that, I had to return to normal and stop having unrealistic fantasies.

As a result, his relationship with his family became extremely cold, and he only maintained a superficial harmony.

I felt like I had become a cancer in my family, and my relationship with my family members had become distant. We could only communicate with each other using honorifics every day.

Even if you've graduated from junior high, the past experiences and their consequences won't disappear.

Because of the huge aftereffects of his experience in junior high school, he wanted to help the female protagonist, but he was also hesitant and timid.

But every time I see the female protagonist being bullied, I think of myself in junior high school and feel the same way.

Finally, I mustered up the courage to stand up...

After reading it in one go, Hachiman Hikigaya fell silent.

Although both characters suffer from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), the male and female protagonists in this story are not understood by others, which is completely different from Yuuta and Rikka's situation.

When he was writing "Chuunibyou Love", he always felt that it was "not real at all".

Now, when faced with the so-called truth, I find myself at a loss for words.

The next moment, that phone call suddenly came to mind.

I'll be going there tomorrow morning to gather material, which means this animation is also based on a true story?

Such things have happened in real life, and perhaps they are still happening now?

Thinking of this, Hachiman Hikigaya quickly picked up his phone and dialed Masamune's number.

"Hayase, how are those two Satos doing now?"

[According to the private investigator, Sato Ryoko seems to be in some trouble. Sato Ichiro is helping her, but only privately; he hasn't publicly intervened.]

"So, he's still hesitating?"

[That’s right.]

"What do you plan to do? Or rather, how do you plan to help them?"

[There's no other option but to transfer schools. The question now is, where to transfer? Both Ginkgo Academy and Soubu High School have decent atmospheres due to their high deviation scores.]

It turned out to be the case.

Hachiman Hikigaya finally understood.

"The reason you specifically called me over isn't just for light novel material, is it? You want me to persuade them to transfer schools?"

[If possible, also take care of family issues at the same time.]

"This is really too difficult. After all, not every parent is like Yuuta and Rikka's family, who can easily accept the chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) setting and still protect them with a smile."

"Most parents are like Ichiro Sato, who have no understanding of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) and think their son is possessed. They only know how to use violence to make him change his ways."

Indeed, but precisely because of this, a third party should step in and make some efforts. Otherwise, the situation will simply remain deadlocked.

"Hmm, I'll give it a try. By the way, could we ask Tomio Yuta to come along? With him involved, it might work wonders."

Okay, I'll tell him.

Chapter 168 The Conflict Between Normal People and Chuunibyou (Middle School Syndrome)

Good morning, Teacher Da.

At the street meeting point, Tomiyuki Yuuta walked briskly toward Hachiman Hikigaya, greeting him as he went.

Not long ago, I found this man repulsive, but as time has passed, I can now treat him with a more normal attitude.

"I didn't expect you to call me over so suddenly. What's the matter?"

"Sorry, I'm just a spectator today. Well... you'll find out soon enough, no need to rush."

"Oh."

Hachiman Hikigaya glanced at the time on his phone and then patiently waited.

Four or five minutes later, two vans suddenly drove up from a distance and lined up in a row.

In the first car in the first row, the passenger window rolled down, and Masamune's voice came through.

"boarding."

"coming."

After getting on the bus, they noticed a man in a suit and sunglasses sitting in the back, and Hachiman and his companion suddenly became a little nervous.

Looking back, I saw several men in suits sitting in the car behind me.

"Um... I was just going to persuade the person involved to transfer schools, right? It shouldn't be necessary to bring so many people."

"I don't know what the situation is over there, but it's always safer to bring more people," Masamune explained, turning around.

"After all, it's a school, right? There shouldn't be any safety concerns."

“Schools with very low average deviation values ​​often have many students with poor academic performance, and I am not very comfortable with that.”

So, what is going on?

Tomohisa looked at the people in the car with a puzzled expression, his mind filled with doubt.

Last night, Hachiman suddenly asked me to keep him company.

At that moment, Yuta Tomi instinctively wanted to refuse, but Hikigaya immediately followed up with "a reward of ten thousand yen".

At that moment, he readily agreed.

Ten thousand isn't a lot, but earning that much in a day is quite good.

However, judging from the situation, it seems to be no small matter.

......

Why did it turn out like this? This is probably the conflict between a normal person and someone with chuunibyou (middle school syndrome).

Ultimately, my knowledge of the term "chuunibyou" (middle school syndrome) came from the influence of an anime on TV.

Before this, Ichiro Sato had always referred to these kinds of people as delusional warriors.

Pushing open the classroom door, Ichiro Sato saw Ryoko Sato's somewhat disheveled clothes and the staff that had been folded in two, and he quickly realized what had happened.

On the left is a group of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferers who have a good relationship with Sato Ryoko and themselves, while on the right is a group of normal people.

In contrast to the chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) syndrome, Oshima, a girl from the normal group, is coldly demanding that Oda (the girl) remove her blindfold with an extremely indifferent and aloof attitude.

Because they didn't understand what "chuunibyou" meant, they righteously believed that they were teaching their classmates to return to normal.

Meanwhile, Yamamoto, a boy she was on good terms with, was waving his fist and behaving extremely rudely.
