The Second Generation of Knights Encountering Demons Reappears

Even in such an incident that was indirectly caused by herself, the girl was just a bystander until the end of the incident.

She was not able to participate in it.

No, maybe even the idea of ​​"being able to participate in this matter" was just an illusion caused by the girl's unrest at the time.

Maybe her life is like this?

She comforted herself in this way, and she had no doubt that such an ordinary life would continue to permeate her life in the future.

But what Yuigahama Yui herself did not notice was that in the deepest part of her heart, a little unwillingness still remained.

If she had not just been a bystander at the beginning.

If she had the courage to take the first step.

Then, would the outcome of the car accident be different?

Yuigahama Yui didn't know, but perhaps she thought so subconsciously.

She and Nishimiya Glass met each other on the Internet, and after becoming pen pals, she spared no effort to encourage the girl with congenital hearing impairment.

In a certain sense, these things are also Yuigahama Yui's struggle against this ordinariness?

But now it seems that she is not the material to do such things after all.

"Still no reply, Miss Yui..."

Sitting at the counter of the laundry shop bored, the pink-haired clerk fiddled with her mobile phone. After confirming that she had not received a response to her greeting message today, she could not help but sigh.

Since the last time Miss Glass asked to invite her to meet, there has been no news from the other side.

Yuigahama Yui naturally did not know about the massacre in Tokyo. Even if she knew, she would probably not connect these two seemingly unrelated things together.

After all, Tokyo is the most densely populated city in the world. With such a large area, reality is not a TV series. How can such a coincidence happen?

Although she also thought that her pen pal Glass might have encountered an accident, in the heart of this girl who was outgoing and positive on the surface but surprisingly delicate on the inside, she was more inclined to blame this result on herself.

Did I not reply to the other party in time and let Miss Glass down?

Or did I hurt Miss Glass unintentionally?

——Should I go to Tokyo to see it myself?

All kinds of questions popped up in the girl's mind one after another.

The upset pink-haired girl simply lay back and put all her weight on the back of the chair, causing the thick front armor to rise and fall.

——If it were you, what would you do?

The image of a black-haired boy rushing towards a dachshund appeared in the girl's mind, and she couldn't help but put herself in it, as if she wanted to get some inspiration from that figure.

Just at this time, the doorbell at the door of the store rang. 】

Science Thumbelina: Huh? Why does this memory look familiar?

EMT: Well, it seems that I have seen this picture there before, but the angle is different.

Death God Elementary School Student: After all this time, this matter is actually divided into the perspective of the driver who caused the accident and the perspective of the onlookers?

Mrs. Tuanzi: Oh, it seems that my little Yui is also very close to Hikigaya-kun.

Komachi's score is very high: Hiss, the brother in the video actually has such an outrageous peach blossom luck?

ZIO Second Generation: Are you sure it's just in the video?

Sobu High School Fujoshi Leader: What? Hikigaya-kun is not Tetsuo Tong! ?

Sobu High School Fujoshi Leader: I can't accept it.jpg

Hideyoshi's sister: That's right, wasn't it agreed? This time, Faiz Hikigaya's CP is the blond black-bellied man Hayama and the beautiful and miserable Chen Shi?

The dead fish eyes of the Great Teacher: Who agreed with you? Sweating soybeans.jpg

Barus: No, brother. Are you the protagonist of some light novel? If you do good things, you will be remembered by the cold school beauties and energetic hot girls who just happened to be there for the rest of your life. There are such good things in the world?

KEY: Envy makes me split apart.

Justice Partner Lily: It's really a bit outrageous.

ZIO Second Generation: I think your high jump is much more outrageous than Penguin's dog rescue.

Justice Partner Lily:?

Devil Kinniku Rin:...

Purple-haired female passerby:...

Shinji wants to go home:...

Devil Kinniku Rin:?

Purple-haired female passerby:?

ZIO II: You see.

Lily, the partner of justice: ? ? ?

Partner of justice: Cover face.jpg

Queen of Sobu High School: Ah, Yui, did you also get to know that Hikigaya through this incident?

Pink Dumpling: Ahahaha... How, how is it possible? That's just a video!

…

In reality, Yuigahama Yui secretly glanced at Hikigaya Hachiman beside her with a guilty conscience. After confirming that the other party looked normal and did not seem to be affected by the forum discussion, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she did develop different feelings for Hikigaya Hachiman because of this incident, just like in the video, Yuigahama Yui, who is very good at observing people's words and expressions, has figured out the general personality of Hikigaya Hachiman during this period of time in the Service Club.

She had a hunch that if Hikigaya Hachiman broke through this layer of window paper and knew that her feelings started with gratitude and guilt from the car accident, then her first love might really end in vain.

However, Yuigahama Yui thought she had hidden it well, but Chen Shi saw all her little movements. He poked the arm of Hikigaya Hachiman, who knew the same thing but pretended to be stupid, with interest.

The latter glanced at him and saw that the other party seemed to want to hear his feelings.

In response, Hikigaya fell silent.

He was not stupid. How could he not think clearly about what Yuigahama Yui could think of?

It was just the same as Yuigahama Yui thought. Hikigaya Hachiman still believed that the feelings born out of gratitude and guilt were not real. If he acted irrationally because of a momentary impulse, it would definitely add unnecessary burdens and bad memories to the relationship between the two in the future.

Even if he would never say it, Hikigaya Hachiman liked the current service club very much, and he knew that others did the same.

Therefore, he did not want to and was unwilling to try to change the current atmosphere of the service club.

As long as the window paper is not broken, Hachiman Hikigaya thinks that maintaining the status quo is the best response to Yuigahama Yui, and believes that she thinks the same way.

Silence is sometimes the most straightforward answer.

Chen Shi naturally understood what Hachiman Hikigaya meant. He shrugged his shoulders. He thought he had no right to criticize his friend's awkward and paranoid personality.

Retracting his gaze and looking at the video again, Chen Shi, who had always put Kamen Rider first in the past, suddenly became a little distracted.

Familiar people headed by Honoka Kosaka flashed through his mind, and Chen Shi suddenly understood Hachiman Hikigaya's thoughts.

Want to maintain the status quo.

Isn't he holding such an idea?

——Really, it makes me have extra emotions, old man.

Imitating the classic lines of a certain prosecutor in a red suit, Chen Shi's heart is mixed with joy and sorrow. He only hopes that his momentary softness and the old devil's concealment of what he did will not lead to a result that everyone regrets.

【“Welcome.”

The sound of the doorbell brought back Yuigahama Yui’s scattered consciousness, and the girl quickly sat up again and looked towards the door of the store.

But after seeing the two customers coming in, her crimson pupils suddenly shrank, and she was stunned for a moment.

The visitors were naturally Hikigaya Hachiman and Yukinoshita Yukino.

In the battle with the elephant Ophi yesterday, although Yukinoshita Yukino tried hard to protect Hikigaya Hachiman’s schoolbag, the terrifying experience of being chased by an elephant and almost being crushed by him was still a bit too exciting for a girl in her prime. When she came to her senses, the schoolbag she was holding had already disappeared.

In the end, the two found the schoolbag and the fancy underwear scattered on the ground on a beach beside the road.

A well-known homeless man once said: A man’s tomorrow is made up of underwear and some change.

So there was no way. Hachiman Hikigaya, who had lost tomorrow, had to change his original plan to go to Tokyo with Yukinoshita Yukino today, and instead took a detour to this nearby laundry shop to save his tomorrow.

However, since he entered the door, Hachiman Hikigaya regretted it a little.

Whether it was when he handed over the clothes or when he was waiting now, for some reason, Hachiman Hikigaya could always feel the extremely strong gaze of the unknown clerk.

The humming sound of the washing machine and the eyes that seemed to see through him turned into a somewhat shameful torture for the young man in a small space.

Growing up, Hachiman Hikigaya felt that he had never been stared at by a girl like this even in his most self-conscious period, and he was stared at by a woman who looked so cute and had such a scary body.

This made his past black history emerge like a tide, and his social phobia almost broke out.

Glancing at Yukinoshita Yukino, perhaps because Yuigahama Yui's eyes were not on her, the black-haired girl was unaware of this, and just lowered her head to read quietly, waiting obediently for Hikigaya Hachiman's clothes to be washed.

Realizing that he could only solve the current situation by himself, Hikigaya Hachiman looked helplessly at the person hiding behind the counter.

At this time, Yuigahama Yui still thought she had demonstrated well. She poked two holes in the newspaper that was taken upside down, and was observing Hikigaya Hachiman's face that made her feel full of déjà vu through it.

——Is it him? It must be him. That dead fish eyes and stupid hair can't be wrong!

A kind of joy of regaining something began to fill the girl's heart, and her eyes looking at Hikigaya Hachiman became more and more fiery.

She wanted to rush up to Hikigaya Hachiman and tell him her five-year-late thanks, and ask him where he had been all these years and whether he was doing well during this period.

But the hesitation and worry in her heart stopped her steps. Would the other party not remember that incident at all, or did he actually hold a grudge against that incident?

Expectation and fear, the complex emotions intertwined into a big net in her heart, making Yuigahama Yui feel unable to move forward.

And the external manifestation became that her eyes looking at Hikigaya Hachiman became more and more terrifying, and the look that seemed to want to eat people made Hikigaya Hachiman sweat profusely.

The original idea of ​​going forward to talk was also scared away, for fear that if she walked over, she would really be beaten to her knees and swallowed by the other party.

The air froze.

Silent silence spread in the laundry shop. The heavy atmosphere made Yukino Yukinoshita, who was originally standing aside, notice it. She put down her book and blinked her eyes.

Then, she saw Mr. Asuka with a cow mask on his face outside the shop window.

"Hikigaya!?"

"Boom——"

The explosion sounded like the sound of nature in Hikigaya Hachiman's ears. The young man looked at the bull-headed monster who broke through the wall with his dead fish eyes, and an unprecedented joy burst out from his dark pupils.

This is not an enemy that suddenly attacked, this is simply a bull Bodhisattva who helped him escape from the embarrassing hell!

乆 Hikigaya Hachiman was ecstatic, but Niu Aofei, who noticed this look, couldn't help but shudder.

——No, big brother. Why do you react like I react when I see my prey? Isn't this a bit against the will of heaven?

However, although he was uneasy, Niu Aofei would not think of retreating because of this little thing.

Since we are here, how can we return empty-handed?

With this thought in mind, Niu Aofei fearlessly charged towards Hikigaya Hachiman who had already grabbed the belt. 】

UMR: Niu Aofei: So am I also part of your play?

What's wrong with men being perverted: Brother, can you please give the minotaur some respect?

Observer and Punisher: This guy really doesn't know how to appreciate his blessings. Isn't it more fun to be stared at by a beautiful girl than by a minotaur?

Guitar Hero: This is what social phobia is like.

Flirtatious Pineapple Head: Poor minotaur...

Chaos Evil Gudako: Isn't the real pitiful one the manager of the laundry shop? Suddenly, a minotaur destroyed his house.

[ ]: I understand. The manager is the victim (in the economic sense).

Nyako: Wall: It's already in the shape of a minotaur.

【“Boom——”

The second muffled sound followed closely, and in a burst of Faiz’s unique red light of transformation, Hikigaya Hachiman, whose extreme hand speed had already begun to show, was pushed out of the laundry shop from the other wall by Niu Aofei, and flew backwards and hit the rocks outside.

“Huh, he’s really cruel.”
