Meanwhile, the students in Class C all looked on with envy.

"Oh, it really is that Hitori. Last time, Miyami-sensei said he had made great progress, but I didn't expect him to be the only one to go on stage to receive the award."

"What do you mean, Hikigaya? It's called Hikigaya! Show some respect, okay?"

"Ah, I'm sorry, Lord Hikigaya."

The conversation below was lively and noisy, giving Hachiman a headache. Only one sentence from a boy brought him some rare comfort.

"Damn, he's so handsome!"

Although Mei Chuan Kuzi was involved in some of the interference, accepting an award in front of so many people is still a momentous occasion for an ordinary person.

However, Hachiman was not happy at all.

Going up on stage alone at the morning meeting was practically a public execution for him.

[Should we use the illusory image to distract the head of student affairs?]

Do you think the students below are blind?

【Then why don't you just interfere with the students directly? I'll blur your face.】

Isn't this too much like Ke Qing?

Hey, you're an OP too?

Who are you calling an OP?

Hachiman complained, but ultimately decided to bite the bullet and go on stage anyway.

However, one thing still makes people very curious: how could such a thing be done to affect the vision of so many people?

【Can】

Is this also possible?

Of course, the amount of gravity accumulated on Sundays is ridiculously high. If reducing the duration of gravity accumulation is the trade-off, it can increase the number of applicable targets to some extent.

Damn, Su Shi is still attacking!

Do you even realize how valuable your sister Su Shi's credentials are?!

"..."

Despite the allure of the system's Edel, Hachiman has already taken the stage.

When Hachiman appeared in the audience, it immediately sparked a heated discussion.

"Who is this person?"

"This is the first time a boy from Haneoka Academy has stood on the podium to receive an award."

"Isn't that obvious? This is the first year that mainland China is recruiting male students!"

"mine."

At this moment, Hachiman was already starting to regret it. The pressure of the crowd's gaze made him walk stiffly, and he almost ended up walking with his legs in opposite directions.

Your mental fortitude is lacking.

This is the first time Hachiman has ever been on stage since he was a child, so it would be strange if he wasn't nervous.

He's not some cold, emotionless machine; it's perfectly reasonable for him to feel inadequate because of what others say.

On the side, Mei Chuan Kuzi listened to the commotion below the stage and saw Hachiman's awkward walking posture, and a slight smile appeared on her face.

'Still too young, won't do.'

No?

A man cannot say no.

Hearing Mei Chuan Kuzi's thoughts, Hachiman immediately retaliated in his mind, trying to straighten his body a little.

"Congratulations." Mei Chuan Kuzi didn't say much, just extended her hand.

"Thank you." Hachiman quickly touched Umekawa Kuko's finger as if they had shaken hands, and accepted the commendation in a straightforward manner.

'The adjustment was quick enough, but I wonder if it was just an act.'

Of course it's an act.

Do you want to see my shrewish face?

[Hachiman-kun was a bit too aggressive today]

"..."

Meanwhile, Mei Chuan Kuzi's inner thoughts continued unabated, and Hachiman, thankfully ignoring the system's complaints, listened attentively.

Even if it's an act, to be able to appear so calm, without showing even a hint of joy, is quite a skill in itself.

'If it were an ordinary person, their tail would have been wagging in the air by now.'

'Could it be that I really misjudged him?'

Hachiman was indeed being targeted by Umekawa Kuko, but somehow, his series of reactions inadvertently made her somewhat irrational, and her evaluation of him not only did not decrease but actually increased a little.

Another day of being driven crazy by Dizi.

After the commendation ceremony, everyone returned to their classrooms to study. The impact of this morning meeting was enormous, instantly elevating his status in the class from the bottom to that of an inner disciple.

After class, besides Ai-yin and Takamatsu, some female disciples would also come up to him and talk to him.

It was only then that Hachiman truly understood the charm of the former girls' school, hearing Hachiman's sweet, coquettish voice calling out to him. Those calls were truly mesmerizing.

Fortunately, while he was bad at everything else, he had a knack for dealing with roast chicken.

"Excuse me, I still need to study, could you please not bother me?"

"Hikigaya-kun is so studious!"

What?!

In the past, these girls would have given him the cold shoulder, but today they're praising him instead.

Pleasant Goat is really scary.

In the classroom, the other boys, seeing the changes in how the girls treated Hachiman, also shed tears of envy.

Pleasant Goat, how could you do this... Wait, so, is being good at studying attractive to girls?

Starting today, I will begin reading!

These boys swore a solemn oath that if they didn't study, they were dogs, and they would make the girls in the class look at them with new eyes in the next final exam.

The group took out their textbooks and began to read aloud.

But three minutes later.

Their phones simultaneously emitted a white flash.

O God, activate!

Chapter 100 099 Pochi-chan's Anxiety (4.5K)

It has to be said that these beautiful young female disciples are really annoying, constantly clamoring to see the secret behind Hachiman's excellent academic performance.

Okay, then let me show you...

Hey! You vixen, take this beating from my prison guards!

Well, he couldn't eat much, and to avoid the predatory female students, he barely dared to stay in the classroom all day.

Now, the secret base behind the teaching building has become the best place to go.

But who would have thought that the once deserted haven would also be taken over by two little devils?

"Who's the little devil?" Ai Yin drawled out, her voice tinged with reproach.

"You misheard me," Hachiman casually brushed off.

"Sigh, the kids' all grown up now, they can even fool me." Aine just shook her head, her tone seemingly tinged with a hint of sarcasm. "Hachigaya-kun's become a heartthrob now."

Hey hey hey, whose jealousy has been spilled?

Hachiman really wanted to give Aine a husky-like pointing gesture, but then he thought about how it would set a bad example for Takamatsu Akari, who was standing next to him, so he gave up the idea.

"So, what are you doing here?" he asked.

Takamatsu Akari clasped her hands together nervously and looked up, asking, "Hachigaya-kun, was there something you wanted to talk to Suze about last time?"

Hachiman's pupils contracted, and after a moment's thought, he replied, "It's nothing. I just had some dealings with Nagasaki before, so I wanted to congratulate her on her successful performance, but I didn't expect that she would have already left when I got backstage."

"Su Shi's emotions were very off that day... I'm sorry."

Why are you apologizing?

"I don't know, I just feel like it's my fault."

Gao Songdeng lowered his head weakly, his amber pupils filled with a silent sorrow.

This atmosphere made Hachiman feel very uncomfortable.

The historical issues surrounding Crychic are more serious than he imagined, but he has already arranged a direct confrontation between Su Shi and Xiangzi over the weekend, so he figured he should resolve them all at once then.

"It's okay, don't blame yourself too much."

Time flew by and it was already afternoon.

It was probably because the midterm exams had just ended and club activities hadn't returned to normal yet, so Xiangzi hadn't contacted him about reporting to the record store.

So, as soon as the school bell rang, Hachiman immediately packed his schoolbag and rushed to the Starry Night Performance Hall.

"Phew, the air here is definitely more comfortable, with a familiar gloomy smell."

As soon as he entered the performance hall, Hachiman took a deep breath, but to his surprise, Ijichi Seika was standing right behind him.

"You brat, are you complaining that we don't keep a clean house well?"

Look how arrogant you are!

Ijichi Seika had a gloomy face, preparing to scare Hachiman, but to her surprise, he didn't play by the rules.

"That's exactly what I was thinking. Please let me clean it properly."

"???"

Before Ichiki Hoshika could say anything, Hachiman had already picked up a broom and a rag, and like a smart robotic vacuum cleaner, he meticulously cleaned every inch of the floor.

"Hachiman, have you fried your brain?"

Ijichi Seika stared in disbelief, frantically touching Hachiman all over, trying to check if he was missing any parts.

"Nothing's missing...did the sun rise in the west?"

This is to demonstrate the value of my work, understand?

Instead of giving a direct answer, Hachiman silently demonstrated his work ethic to Ijichi Seika through his actions.

High emotional intelligence: proactive and hardworking

Low emotional intelligence: racking their brains to avoid layoffs

Before Hachiman could finish his work for long, the band members arrived at the performance hall one after another.

"Hey, Hachiman, are you feeling better?"

"As you can see, it's absolutely perfect, practically brand new." Hachiman rolled up his sleeves and showed off muscles that weren't actually there.

"Hey, sister, did you just bully Hikigaya?" Nijika asked her sister suddenly, as if she had seen a ghost.

Ijichi Hoshika shook her head in strong disdain.

"You also think Hachiman is acting strangely today, right? Let me tell you, this kid rushed to do all the work as soon as he came in. Has he been possessed?"

"Hey, hey, don't go too far!" Hachiman interrupted.

Yamada Ryo walked over to Hachiman, gently placed her right hand on Hachiman's shoulder, and wiped away her tears with her other hand: "Hachiman must have developed depression after hearing Aine-chan's performance."

"You'll hurt Chihaya's feelings if you say that," Hachiman said, rubbing his temples in exasperation. "I just caught a cold after getting caught in the rain last week... By the way, what's with this strange way you address me?"

"I just felt that I had too few scenes lately, so I wanted to make my presence felt more prominent."

"?"

"Alright, you lot, stop standing around wasting time. It's almost opening time, so get to work!"
