Does gravity make me stronger?

So, Hachiman played his last card.

"I'll pick up Toyokawa-kun later to go to the performance hall..."

90-> 92

"No!"

Motoyo Nagasaki wanted to stop him.

She realized once again that compared to the boy in front of her, the band was nothing, and if she didn't do something, Hachiman would truly drift away from her.

This sense of impending loss was almost suffocating Motoyo Nagasaki.

'Hachigaya-kun, you know perfectly well that I like you, so why are you doing this?'

Yes, Hachiman truly knows Nagasaki Motoyo's feelings, which is why he's so distressed right now. 〃‖∝

But he cared more about the real thing than the girl's feelings.

"I've said what I needed to say. Whether you come over or not is up to you."

Without giving Nagasaki Motoyo any chance to ask further questions, Hachiman lowered his center of gravity and quickly walked away from the apartment. Once he was out of the other person's sight, he let his powerless body collapse to the ground and let out a long breath.

"Is it because your mental strength can't keep up after using your abilities for so long?"

I clutched my forehead, feeling a sharp pain in the back of my head, as if I had been hit hard with a stick several times.

The ability becomes unstable when used on objects with extremely high gravity, so be careful and don't worry about whether the object is real or not.

"No."

Hachiman flatly rejected the system's proposal.

"I will keep an eye on the gravity level, there will absolutely be no problem, and this is the last time."

Chapter 127, Section 125: Xiangzi Wants to Run Away

When I returned to Haneoka Academy, an hour had passed since I sent the message to Shoko.

During that hour, Hachiman felt like every second was an eternity, fearing that Nagasaki Motoyo might suddenly appear from some corner and stab him, or that Tokyo might be instantly nuked.

Fortunately, it was all just his overthinking.

There's no melodramatic plot involving a hatchet, nor any unexpected occurrences of extreme gravity.

After climbing the stairs of the teaching building, another headache arose: would his late return upset Xiangzi?

No need to think, you should be angry.

Xiangzi, please whip me hard!

His months-long practice of the Golden Earthly Dhyana might come in handy today.

With a nervous heart, Hachiman walked step by step to the door of Class 1-B's classroom.

Thanks to Haneoka Academy's peculiar school rules, most students went to participate in club activities, and the few students who did not participate in club activities had already left the classroom.

Now, only Xiangzi remains in Class 1B.

"La la la~"

From the empty classroom, one could hear the girl's clear and melodious humming. The tune was familiar, and Hachiman listened carefully for a while before quickly remembering the origin of the melody.

It was a song written by Xiangzi.

Come to think of it, she even asked a friend to record her voice, right? Why didn't she record such a beautiful voice herself?

A violent thing!

After patiently waiting for Xiangzi to finish humming his song in the classroom, Hachiman knocked on the door and said in a low voice, "Sorry to keep you waiting."

"Hikigaya-san!"

The moment Xiangzi saw Hachiman, he jumped up from his seat in surprise, then puffed out his cheeks and complained, "So slow!"

"Um, I just got lost on the road of life, hahaha."

"It seems that Hachiman needs my guidance."

"Please, where did you come from, tour guide?"

"Pfft." Xiangzi smiled and took a relaxed step, quickly closing the distance.

"That way, Hachiman can always stay behind me and never have to look at other girls."

"..."

The hot breath exhaled from the girl's cherry lips kept stimulating his sensitive ears, and Hachiman felt a surge of heat in his abdomen, which burned all the way to the roots of his ears.

Bai Xiang has finally transformed into a succubus!

Hachiman casually flicked his earlobe and stammered, "Let's hurry up, or we'll miss the performance."

"Ok!"

Just as he was about to leave, perhaps because he lost his footing, Hachiman suddenly stumbled forward and lost his balance.

Fortunately, Xiangzi, who was standing nearby, caught him in time and helped him up, preventing Hachiman's handsome face from making intimate contact with the marble floor.

"Hachiman, are you alright? Are you okay?"

"I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well. I'll be fine after a short rest."

He found an empty seat, sat down, and gasped for breath.

The side effects are quite significant; it seems best to use this mechanism sparingly in the future.

After adjusting his breathing and sitting quietly for a while, Hachiman felt much better, but the soreness between his eyebrows still hadn't disappeared.

"What did Hachiman go about in the past hour?"

Xiangzi frowned with worry, his tone filled with helplessness and heartache.

"I just went to see a few friends."

To be precise, it was just a chance encounter; Ruoye Mutsu was not a friend.

"What friend?"

"Hey, shouldn't we be making fun of things like 'Where did Hachiman get his friends from?' right now?"

"Oh dear, I almost forgot that Hikigaya-kun has this kind of character setting. But lately I've noticed that you seem to be quite popular with girls."

No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!

"..."

Realizing they were about to enter a dangerous area, Hachiman decisively changed the subject.

"We've rested enough, let's go."

But just as he was about to get up, Xiangzi pressed him down with both hands.

No, what did these girls eat to grow up like that? How come they all have such strong hands?

Hachiman turned his head to look at Xiangzi standing behind him, and asked in confusion, "What?"

"Let me help Hachiman relax."

"what?"

Before he could speak, Xiangzi's slightly cool little hand moved from his shoulder to his head.

"I've watched several videos these past few days and learned techniques for helping others relax when they're feeling unwell," Xiangzi said proudly, puffing out his chest.

But Xiangzi, have you ever thought that when you stand up straight, you should look ahead...?

Seeing that the sensitive area was almost touching the back of his head, Hachiman hurriedly moved forward, but was pulled back by Shoko in less than a second.

then.

I had a close encounter with Oppein.

"ah!"

The girl exclaimed in surprise and released the Nine Yin White Bone Claw. Hachiman, now free, quickly moved forward a few centimeters, then sat up straight, instinctively recalling the feelings he had just experienced.

When you first touch it, it's soft and a little bouncy, but then it sinks in like tofu.

At that moment, Hachiman regretted that his scalp's tactile senses weren't sensitive enough to perceive the finer details.

But before he could get completely lost in his fantasies, Hachiman suddenly saw an image of himself being handcuffed by a pair of silver handcuffs.

I'm sorry, Xiangzi, I didn't mean to!

Blame it on your own overdevelopment.

If it were a certain pink-haired girl, you probably wouldn't be able to run into her.

"I'm...I'm sorry."

"It's nothing, it was my fault." Xiangzi's tone wasn't as bold as before. "Hachigaya-kun, stick your head out."

Which head?

You son of a bitch!

"Want to come again?"

Hachiman's lips twitched. Giving out fan service once is enough; giving it out too often would be sexual harassment.

That's right, as you all know, it was Xiangzi who harassed him.

He is the victim.

Brothers, charge into prison!

"I can't breathe!"

"Huh?" Shoko released her grip in surprise, muttering, "I haven't even started yet, Hachiman-kun is so annoying..."

"No, I didn't mean you...you can continue."

After obtaining Hachiman's permission, Xiangzi finally let go and started pressing on his head.

A tingling sensation spread across the scalp as the fingers pressed.

To be honest, Xiangzi's technique was very clumsy, much like a medical student dissecting a mouse for the first time.

Fortunately, Xiangzi used just the right amount of force and didn't press randomly; he focused on a few correct acupoints.

After all, you can't just press your head randomly; if you accidentally cause dementia, you'll be held legally responsible.

Xiangzi, do you understand?

If you make me mentally disabled, I'll punish you by making you support me for the rest of your life, hehe!

Look how arrogant you've become, you've really messed things up.

Even though I've become demented, can't I still enjoy myself?

While bickering with Tongzi, Hachiman enjoyed Xiangzi's massage service. His tense body gradually relaxed, and the pain around his forehead was relieved a lot.

A few minutes later, Xiangzi heard Hachiman's steady breathing coming from the other end.

Looking down, I realized that the boy had fallen asleep sometime during the night, his expression peaceful, with only his chest rising and falling.

"Looks like I did a pretty good job?"

Xiangzi thought this at first, then bent down and gently stroked Hachiman's face, the corners of his eyes, his lips, and his earlobes.

I like Hachiman more and more the more I look at him.

If only those things hadn't happened at home...

Come to think of it, there shouldn't be anyone here right now, right?

The girl looked left and right, and after confirming that there were no students near the classroom, she suddenly felt restless.

"Hachiman, are you asleep?"

First, he tentatively called out to confirm that Hachiman was indeed asleep. Then, smelling the familiar scent in front of him, Xiangzi lowered his head further and further, almost touching Hachiman's face.

Xiangzi's eyes were glazed over, his lips were slightly parted, and his breathing became rapid.

If I were to steal a kiss here, no one would probably notice, right?

Just one click will do.
