A youth story of a passerby at the end of the world

"Then tomorrow will do," Yukino Yukinoshita sighed impatiently.

"You go too!" Yukinoshita Haruno instructed Uesugi Genshin, stating it in an unquestionable tone.

"Sister!" Yukino Yukinoshita cut in front of them, blocking their view.

“That’s not what I meant.” Yukinoshita Haruno smiled and looked at her younger sister. “Mother also wants to meet the vice president of Soubu High School. She helped out a lot in Narashino before, but we haven’t been able to meet her yet. I went back a few days ago, and she gave me an order.”

Yes, even now, Yukinoshita's mother still has doubts about whether her daughter should stay here, after all, she doesn't believe her daughter is capable of being independent.

"Is that alright, Uesugi-kun?" Yukinoshita Haruno said politely, looking at him.

“That works.” After thinking for a moment, Uesugi Genshin agreed. “We’ll do a quick assessment of the Executive Department’s progress over the past few days tomorrow morning, then head out and come back at noon.”

"Ha..." Yukino Yukinoshita sighed, "Then let's leave it at that."

-----------------

They finished dinner early and, in the evening, moved to another place to discuss the apartment swap.

Besides, Professor Hiratsuka has already arranged a rent-free apartment for her first, and we'll discuss it later.

Then everyone else came over.

The location was still Uesugi Genshin's own apartment.

He and Hachiman sat on the kitchen island as usual, watching the living room packed with people.

“We’ll be moving out,” Kasumigaoka Utaha said first, mainly to Sakurajima, because it was Eriri’s fault, and she didn’t have the nerve to ask her to move out.

The place they moved to was next door, where only she, Kato, and Eriri lived.

Kato Megumi wasn't there at the time; she was cleaning next door and taking care of Eriri.

Now that it's been confirmed, it's definitely the right thing to do to start preparing early.

"Mm." Mai Sakurajima smiled gently; she and the other party had already reached a consensus.

“Uzuki will be living with us,” said Toyohama Kazuka, pulling on Hirokawa Uzuki’s arm.

"Where are the members of Sweet Bullet?" Kasumigaoka Utaha asked while taking notes. She was now in charge of managing the performances and was very familiar with the members of Sweet Bullet, so she asked a few more questions.

"Yae, Ranko, and Hotaru, the three of them can live together without any problem," Hirokawa Uzuki said cheerfully, stating the result they had discussed beforehand.

This was the last time the apartment was rearranged, and it was definitely more spacious for three people to live together. So, as the team leader, she volunteered to move out.

Of course, the opportunity arose because Kowa and Mai were also moving out, and they ended up living together in the apartment across the hall from each other.

"..." Seeing that the two of them had no intention of moving here, Miura Yumiko curled her blonde hair, crossed her long legs, and said, "On my side, Ebina is moving out."

“Mmm.” Hina Ebina, who was sitting with Saki Kawasaki, nodded excitedly. “I plan to live with Saki Saki.”

"Of course, there's also Hachiman." She smiled, her eyes narrowing, as she said this. "Hehe~"

“Okay.” Kasumigaoka Utaha wrote down the names of Hikigaya Hachiman, Kawasaki Saki, and Ebina Hina.

"..." Miura Yumiko gave a disapproving snort, but in the end, she said nothing. It was Ebina's own decision, and she didn't have any right to speak now. Perhaps Ebina thought that Hikigaya should also have a cool side.

"Wait!" Komachi Hikigaya raised her hand and said, "What about me and Kaori-nee?"

For the sake of my brother's happiness, we can't give up on any potential sister-in-law!

"Hahaha," Kaori Orimoto chuckled wryly, "Then I'll go look for other things that can..."

"No way!" Komachi Hikigaya grabbed Kaori Orimoto's hand and shook her head.

"Can six people fit in?" Hina Ebina began to consider the possibility of six people living in one apartment, since the Kawasaki family's youngest sister, Kyoka, was still young and would also live with her older sister.

"Then Komachi can go and live with Heizuka-sensei," Komachi Hikigaya said, raising her hand high.

"Then there's no problem." Hina Ebina nodded. At worst, they'd all sleep on the floor.

"How is it, Kaori-chan?" She smiled at Orimoto Kaori.

"Huh?" Orimoto Kaori was startled and quickly waved her hands, "I...I meant..."

Hesitantly, she glanced tentatively at the person sitting on the island platform.

Uesugi Genshin nudged Hachiman's arm with his outstretched arm, urging him to make a decision quickly.

"Hmm... well, then let's live together." Hachiman said through gritted teeth, while guiltily avoiding the smiling gazes of his younger sister and Ebina.

As for Kawasaki, she was resting her chin on her hand, looking completely indifferent.

"Mm!" Kaori Orimoto then smiled with relief.

"Oh~" Uesugi Genshin murmured, clapping his hands silently.

"Hey! Don't do this, it's already awkward enough," Hachiman Hikigaya cried out in his heart.

Chapter 306: Various Causes of Insomnia

"What about the timber frame and your brother-in-law?"

While they continued their discussion in the living room, Uesugi Genshin asked Hachiman, who was standing beside him.

"Zaimokuza is thinking of living with Qin Ye and Sagami," Hachiman shrugged. "And please don't call him 'brother-in-law'."

The thought of Kawasaki Taishi calling her "brother" always inexplicably evokes some unsettling thoughts.

"Eh~" Uesugi Genshin opened a bag of potato chips on the table, poured them into a bowl, and then handed it to his younger sister next to him.

"Liu Mei, which older sister do you want to live with?"

Upon hearing her brother's words, Tsurumi Rumi cast a very subtle glance at him.

But Uesugi Genshin smiled and said, "Or do you want to live with your brother? That's..."

Now Komachi doesn't want to live with Hachiman anymore, and the reason is exactly that.

"Can I really choose whatever I want?" Tsurumi Rumi asked softly, tugging at his clothes.

“That’s not true.” Uesugi Genshin, who was immediately met with a glare from his younger sister, quickly explained, “Kawasaki, Ebina, and Hiratsuka-sensei are not suitable.”

Then his sister gave him a "you don't need to tell me" look, and Hachiman next to him chuckled.

"What about Yukino-neechan?" Tsurumi Rumi still thought Yukino-neechan was the best, even though Yukino-neechan's sister was a little scary.

“No problem.” Uesugi Genshin readily agreed.

His younger sister laughed knowingly, and he laughed along with her. He then ruffled her hair, and Rumi didn't refuse; instead, she obediently shook her head.

Ah, whose adorable child is this?

Oh, it's my house!

"Me! Me! Me!" Iroha Isshiki raised her hand high. "I'm moving to this floor with Yui-senpai and Yumiko-senpai too."

Then she stepped forward and pointed to the door diagonally opposite on the floor plan, while looking up at Uesugi Genshin sitting in the kitchen and winking playfully.

"..." This made him freeze.

"By the way, when did you and Yukino get together...?" Hachiman had already guessed the answer based on what he had said to Rumi earlier and the way Yukino addressed him that afternoon.

"Is there a problem?" Uesugi Genshin asked, shrugging his shoulders as he turned his attention back to Isshiki, who was making a silly face.

“No.” Hachiman shook his head.

"I'm a little surprised that your relationship with Kawasaki and the others has progressed so rapidly. I didn't even know." Considering that his younger sister was still there, Uesugi Genshin changed his question to a more tactful one.

"It's just a natural progression, and there are many other things you don't know." Hachiman rested his chin on his hand, spreading out his other hand to list them, "For example, Qin Ye actually got a girlfriend."

"Really?" Uesugi Genshin exclaimed in surprise.

Qin Ye from the game club actually...

Because the gaming club is for playing games, and most of the members are homebodies, not exactly social butterflies.

"Your information is too outdated." Hachiman exhaled.

Qin Ye is one of the three team leaders in his squad. He has a position, a high salary, and he's not bad-looking either, so why can't he find a girlfriend?

"But he almost got into a fight with the Ministry of Revenue." This reminded him of another unpleasant incident that happened the day before yesterday.

"Why?" Uesugi Genshin asked, seemingly bored.

"Because the Ministry of Revenue said, 'Oh, it's that girl with the big face, right?' and that annoyed Qin Ye." Hachiman pursed his lips. "Actually, I've seen her. That girl's face is indeed a bit big, but you could say it's baby fat. Her features are also quite nice, and she looks very cute overall."

As a result, the Ministry of Revenue's nonchalant comment about Qin Ye's large face completely ruined his image in everyone's eyes. In fact, no one else in the ministry had ever seen Qin Ye's girlfriend.

Perhaps the Ministry of Revenue just spoke without thinking, but these words easily lead to the implication that, oh, you're dating her? You have terrible taste.

"Is it cute?"

"Yes, it's very cute."

Unless she gains another 20 pounds, which would make her face look a little less attractive, she's undeniably cute right now.

"Does Qin Ye still play games?"

"Go ahead and play games, you'll even bring your girlfriend to the gaming club."

Uesugi Genshin asked helplessly, "What was Sagami's reaction?"

As another member of the gaming club who has never been in a relationship, I've actually fallen behind in such a major life event.

“Actually, Sagami also has suitors,” Hachiman nodded.

"..." There was nothing he didn't know, and Uesugi Genshin felt he needed to take a closer look at his subordinates' private lives.

"But he rejected me."

"Why?" Uesugi Genshin's chin lifted from the base of his hand, his eyes wide. "Is something wrong with you?"

Generally, if someone is pursuing you, or if it's the woman pursuing the man, and it's not that they really don't like each other, they would probably agree.

"It was his sister's best friend who pursued him, but afterwards, that Sagami Minami came directly to him and said in a serious tone that it was best not to date him." Hachiman recalled the scene at that time.

Sagami Minami and he used to be in the same class, classmates. But when they met, it was as if they were meeting for the first time, which made Hachiman quite helpless.

However, Uesugi Genshin had already figured out the meaning behind that advice in his mind. It was like saying, "I know my best friend best. Little brother, you'd better not date this kind of girlfriend."

"Ah..." This left Uesugi Genshin speechless.

There is still affection between siblings, after all. You can't just watch your brother jump into a pit, even if it's a small, shallow one.

Hachiman glanced at Uesugi Genshin, "Sagami is actually a little worried."

"worry about what?"

"It's because her sister made you and Yui Hama hide outside for a few days back then, and you were even followed by helicopters." Hachiman recalled the past, which was also a knot in the heart of his direct subordinate.

"He is him, and his sister is not him. Besides, I don't care about that matter anymore." Uesugi Genshin waved his hand and said. Sagami's sister, Sagami Minami, going to the Ministry of Health to clean toilets was just Yukino's revenge. As for himself, he had long since gotten over his anger towards those people.

"That's good." Hachiman nodded.

"And isn't this just worry?" Uesugi Genshin retorted. Sagami has been in the Executive Department for a month now; if he was going to worry, he would have already.

"Well." Hachiman gave him a "you guessed right" look. "It was Sagami Minami. She performed very well and worked very hard in the Ministry of Health. Originally, the people in the department wanted to promote her, but they were afraid of offending you."

"That's why Sagami came to sound me out," Uesugi Genshin chuckled. "Go tell him he's overthinking it."

Isn't it only natural to get promoted through hard work?

The fact that Sagami Minami is working hard shows that she has truly repented.

"Yes Yes."

"Yukino," Uesugi Genshin called out towards the living room.

When her name was called, Yukino Yukinoshita trembled, still a little unaccustomed to it, her ears turning red. "W-what's wrong?"

"Rumi will live with you again." Uesugi Genshin entrusted his younger sister to her once more, and Tsurumi Rumi looked at him at the same time.

"Ha... I don't mind." Yukino Yukinoshita indicated that it was fine, and she looked at Rumi with a beautiful smile.

Meanwhile, Masumi Kamuro, one of the three from Advanced Nurturing High School, questioned the room assignment.

Originally, when Yukino Yukinoshita and Utaha Kasumigaoka were discussing it with them, they planned to bring Horikita, Ichinose and Kamuro together.

However, it seems that Masumi Kamuro had some reservations about the proposal because of Sakayanagi's mission.

“I want to stay with this man for a while, since we’re leaving soon anyway,” Kamuro Masumi said, pointing at Uesugi Genshin. After all, time was running out, and if they couldn’t gather any valuable information for Sakayanagi to use as a reference, the mission would be considered a failure.

"No way!" Yumiko Miura immediately jumped in and rejected the idea.

She hadn't even considered living together, so how did this girl, with whom she had no idea about anything, bring it up first?
