Does gravity make me stronger?

But at this moment, one of them was with another person of the opposite sex, which surprised even Wakaba Mutsu.

"The others are... they just look somewhat familiar, but I don't know them."

Ruo Yemu secretly shook her head.

Her social circle wasn't as extensive as Su Shi's; she only knew that the four girls belonged to a band called "The End."

Should we go say hello?

I think I'll pass; I feel like it would bother Hachiman.

Coincidentally, just as Wakaba Mutsu was about to look away, the two girls sitting next to Hachiman, as if they had been prepared, precisely placed their cheeks on his shoulders.

This scene caused a hint of surprise to flash across Wakaba Mutsu's perpetually unmoved poker face.

Then, she silently raised her phone, pressed the shutter button without the slightest guilt, and sent the photo to her friend.

Wakaba Mutsumi: Photo.JPG

Su Shi:? ? ?

Xiangzi: ? ? ?

Almost at the same time, her two friends sent her replies.

Mutsumi Wakaba: Hikigaya looks very tired.

Su Shi: I see. Besides them, there are two other eyesores.

Su Shi's aggression is so strong...

With that thought in mind, Ruoye Mu continued typing.

Ruoye Mutsu: Are they members of the End Band?

Xiangzi: Yes

Xiangzi: Mu, where are you now? Why are you with Hachiman?

Wakaba Mutsumi: @Shoko, I just got back from cram school and ran into Hikigaya-kun on the train.

Ruoye Mutsu: @Sushi, is there anything I can do for you?

Motoyo: Mutsumi-chan, could you please look after Hachiman? I'm a little worried he'll get crushed by those two girls.

She glanced over again and saw the blonde and red-haired girls sleeping soundly on Hachiman's shoulder, and the latter didn't seem to be in any discomfort.

Therefore, if Ye Mu didn't think Hachiman would be crushed, he concluded that Suze was jealous.

"The dialogue is so comic book-like."

Wakaba Mutsu, wow, so cool!

Wakaba Mutsumi: Will it really break under the weight?

Su Shi: Yes, I will. Anyway, please take care of me.

Wakaba Mutsumi: Okay

After turning off her phone, Wakaba Mutsu walked through a train car with a blank expression and stood in front of Hachiman.

"Hikigaya-kun."

Her calm, even voice was as clear and pleasant as a lark's song. Hachiman slowly woke up and looked up to meet the girl's clear eyes.

"Wakaba-san?"

At that moment, he suddenly felt a heavy weight on his shoulders. When he turned around, he realized that Hongxia and Kita were using him as a pillow.

No wonder my shoulders are so sore...

He didn't pay attention to the two girls on his shoulders; this kind of thing often happens on the subway.

The only difference is that if it's someone you know, a reminder will suffice, but if it's a stranger, then let's have a samurai duel first!

While Hachiman was lost in thought, Wakaba Mutsumi's pink lips moved again: "Can you come with me?"

This is the FBI. Let me investigate you!

"You're going to investigate me... no, where are you going?"

Hachiman looked around, puzzled.

Awakened by their conversation, Nijika and Kita opened their eyes and groggily asked, "Hey Kita, have we arrived yet?"

"Oh, sorry, Hachiman, I accidentally drooled on your shoulder."

"Ugh, even Hongxia would do something so disgusting."

Yamada Ryo immediately seized the opportunity to retort, while Nijika angrily argued, "I fell asleep! It was beyond my control!"

Ruo Yemu stared at them without moving.

Hikigaya doesn't seem too keen on coming with me, but Motoyo asked me for help, so I guess I'll have to be firm...

She quietly reached out her delicate hand and grasped Hachiman's arm.

The latter immediately cast a suspicious glance at him. If Ye Mu did not hesitate, he pulled his right hand back and walked with Hachiman to the carriage on the side.

"Wait a minute, Wakaba-san, what exactly are you trying to do?"

"Su Shi asked me to take care of you."

"Su Shi?"

"Yes, Hachiman sits right here."

Wakaba Mutsu pointed to the spot where he had just been sitting. As soon as Hachiman sat down, he felt a warm sensation under his bottom.

[A bed-warming maid?]

Hachiman:? ? ?

"Wait a minute, what's with taking care of me?"

If Ye Mu didn't answer, he simply pressed Hachiman down into his seat, then sat beside him and stared out the window, lost in thought.

According to Suze, she has already taken Hachiman away, so that should be considered taking care of him, right?

Hachiman: "Huh?"

The band members' bewildered gazes fell on Hachiman, who could only helplessly make an embarrassed gesture before taking out his phone and typing.

Hachiman: Um, this is an acquaintance of mine. She has something to tell me.

After reading his message, Hongxia nodded blankly, then gestured for everyone to go about their own business.

An unbearable silence descended upon the train carriage.

"Um, Wakaba-kun, is there something you want to say?" Hachiman glanced at Wakaba Mutsuki out of the corner of his eye, but even using his inner voice, he found it difficult to decipher the guy's true purpose.

take care of?

Is this how you take care of someone?

Noticing that Hachiman was staring at her, Wakaba Mutsumi tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said somewhat awkwardly, "Isn't that enough?"

"What's not enough?"

"take care of."

"???"

Ruoye Mu pursed her lips, then patted her thigh as if she had made up her mind.

Hachiman frowned suddenly.

Girl, don't give up so easily!

“If you do that, Su Shi will definitely be angry.”

Ruo Yemu was taken aback and quickly shook her head: "I don't want to upset Su Shi."

"Then don't do that kind of thing."

"sorry..."

Wakaba Mutsu hung her head, looking very disappointed.

"It's alright. By the way, may I leave now?"

"No."

To show her firm stance, Wakaba Mutsu reached out and grabbed Hachiman's sleeve, the intimate contact with a man bringing a shy blush to her face.

"I understand, I understand, I won't move, okay?" Hachiman quickly raised his hands to show his innocence.

"Ah."

The force on his sleeve lessened, and Hachiman sighed, then sat with Wakaba Mutsu all the way to the final stop.

...

If Mutsuya got off the bus first, then Hachiman returned to the band's side.

Nijika watched Wakaba Mutsumi leave: "Hachigaya-kun, who was that girl?"

"Friends of the ordinary world".

Hachiman gave a brief introduction.

"Is that the guitarist from AveMujica?"

Kita asked excitedly. She hadn't fully woken up yet, so she hadn't been able to recognize Wakaba Mutsu's identity, and now she was very regretful: "I really like her, and Hatsuka-chan too, she's so cute!"

Hatsuka-san is indeed very cute, but Wakaba Mutsu is very handsome?

Isn't that Sima's face?

Kita, that kid, probably has a particular fondness for aloof girls...

"Kita-chan, do you know her?" Goto Ichiri asked timidly.

“Yeah, hasn’t anyone heard of AveMujica?” Kita felt that his teammates seemed a bit out of touch with society.

Because this is the hottest girl band in Japan right now!

"Well, I've been busy with things at the shop these past few days," Hongxia said awkwardly, scratching her head.

"I don't know," Yamada Ryo admitted frankly.

As for Goto Ichiri, he remained silent.

AveMujica's keyboardist, and also Hachiman's girlfriend...

If I said that to Kita-chan, she would be terrified, right?

Goto Ichiri glanced at Hachiman silently, but ultimately swallowed his words.

...

After getting off the train, Hachiman took another train back to Haneoka Dormitory.

The reason I didn't choose to go to the Nagasaki family wasn't because I didn't want to, but because I couldn't.

"Hachigaya, you've been returning to the dorm very late almost every day these past few days. The dorm supervisor is already keeping an eye on you. I suggest you tone it down in the future."

Before the holiday, the dormitory manager repeatedly told him not to come back late again, otherwise he would lose his eligibility to stay in the dormitory next semester.

Considering that he would have to pay extra accommodation fees if he were kicked out of the dormitory, Hachiman decided to play it safe and develop his character stealthily.

and.

Anyway, I'll be going back to Chiba soon, and the dorm supervisor will probably forget about it by the time I come back.

Hachiman took out his phone and sent a text message to Suze.

Hachiman: I'm going straight back to my dorm today, so don't bother preparing meals for me.

Su Shi: Okay, Xiangzi will also be going home early today. He'll bring you dinner then.

Hachiman: Okay, good.

Brothers, it's almost time for dinner again!

After returning to the dormitory, Hachiman began packing his luggage. About half an hour later, there was a knock on the door.

"Dong dong!"
