Chapter 175: Choosing Between Death, Who To Save First?

Keyaki Mall. 

At The best ramen shop in the world.

"I found a new store and wanted to change the taste," Kushida Kikyo said, sitting in front of the bar, tilting her head a little cutely.

"Boss, I want this bowl to be softer."

"No problem, I'll be here right away!" the boss replied.

Hikigaya glanced at her discreetly. Kushida Kikyo, this girl really knew how to put on a show. Obviously, she liked to eat softer food, but in order to maintain her character, she still had to find a reason to act cute.

The last time Kushida Kikyo gave Komachi advice on her birthday gift, Hikigaya no longer disliked her so much. But when it came to this kind of high grade bitch, it was better to be careful. Avoid getting stuck. It was better to be a little more vigilant.

Soon, four steaming bowls of ramen were served to several people. They were all experienced hands, so Hikigaya didn't need to push them.

"Is this oil?" the three girls looked at the grease on the ramen in front of them and suddenly felt a chill.

After all, it was their first time eating Tenkaippin Ramen, so it was normal to feel this way. If they were afraid of this, they couldn't eat at Tiger's Lair.

"Try it," Hikigaya immediately took a sip, and sure enough, the best ramen in the world was more delicious than Jiro's.

It was a pity. He had never been able to find where the hidden Tiger's Lair was. Upon seeing this, Hasebe Haruka and others hesitated for a moment before picking up their chopsticks and trying.

After all, this isn't the first time I've eaten ramen, and I know that although it looks unappealing, it's really delicious.

The thick oil assaults the taste buds.

Kushida Kikyo and the others' eyes suddenly widened, and they really didn't know how to describe it.

"It's really... delicious..."

"That's really great."

A satisfied smile appeared on Hikigaya's lips. People who like to eat ramen are not bad people.

It's a pity that he forgot the bad habits of these newbies.

"Phew..."

Sakura Airi blew on the ramen in front of her.

"That senior just now was so scary. I didn't expect Hikki to be able to talk to a guy like that. It was really amazing.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm almost scared to death."

Hikigaya was a little helpless.

Those guys just like to be in the limelight and show their presence, and this is probably even more true in this school where strength is important.

There has to be a fight for superiority.

What a terrible school.

"That's awesome too."

Sakura Airi was a little disappointed and said: "Unlike me, I couldn't even speak just now.

"It's okay."

Hasebe Haruka, who was next to her, touched her little head: "That senior is really terrible. It's not Airi's fault. I'm afraid the only ones who just talked to that senior were Hikki and Kikyo-chan."

Kushida Kikyo ate her noodles silently.

It is not easy to be trusted by everyone. If you cannot maintain absolute neutrality, you will be squeezed out by one party sooner or later.

Just listen silently.

She would never speak ill of someone casually, except behind their back.

"Right."

Hasebe Haruka was eating noodles, and suddenly narrowed her eyes and said: "Hikki, do you like Ichinose?"

"No."

"What a quick answer, so suspicious~"

"No."

Hikigaya shook his head helplessly and said: "Because I have been asked this question so often recently, I am used to it."

Really.

Why do these guys think he likes Ichinose?

Apart from the nonsense about men and women, can't there be other reasons in these people's minds?

"Is that so?"

Hasebe Haruka tilted her head, glanced at Sakura, whose face was red, and said with a smile:

"Then why would you rather destroy your reputation and help Ichinose?"

"No way."

Hikigaya said nonchalantly, "If Ichinose weren't here, Class B would probably be doomed."

In saying this, Hikigaya realized that being promoted to Class A was a useful excuse. No matter what was done, as long as you were in this school, you could justify your actions with the goal of getting an A, and others would understand without needing an explanation.

"Indeed..." Hasebe nodded and curiously asked, 

"Then let me ask you a question, would you save your girlfriend at all costs?"

"Excuse me," Hikigaya responded indifferently, "I've never had a girlfriend, so I don't know."

What's the use of verbal guarantees? If it hadn't happened, Hikigaya himself couldn't be sure, not to mention that he would first need to find out what kind of predicament the other party was in.

Hasebe frowned. This person was really selfish. He could help Ichinose like this just to get promoted to A, but he didn't even have the attitude to protect his girlfriend. Even if he just said it, at least it could make Sakura Airi happy.

However, seeing Sakura Airi nodding happily, Hasebe knew that Sakura Airi was in love with him and was happy because of his lack of experience. Well, if it weren't for the fact that Sakura Airi liked him so much that she was almost obsessed with him, Hasebe really wouldn't want her to get close to Hikigaya.

"That..." Seeing that they stopped badmouthing others, Kushida Kikyo joined the conversation out of curiosity. "Hikki, if your girlfriend and mother fell into the sea at the same time, who would you save first?"

The question appeared. The high grade bitch Kushida was hinting crazily at the choice between death that has caused headaches for countless boyfriends.

"Who knows," Hikigaya glanced flatly. "At least we need to find out why they fell into the sea, whether there were lifeguards nearby, whether they were swimming or doing other things. If they couldn't swim, why didn't they wear a lifebuoy? After all, why should they go swimming? Isn't it good to watch TV at home?"

Those who drown are often those who know how to swim.

If you don't know how to swim, why not be prepared?

The situation where both swimmers fall into the sea at the same time and cannot be rescued is almost impossible.

It's just a foolish question.

He didn't even understand why those people were thinking about that kind of question.

"That's right...that's true..."

Kushida Kikyo and Hasebe Haruka forced a smile, but they were speechless and didn't know how to respond.

Sakura Airi on the side nodded seriously. Hikigaya's analysis was so comprehensive.

What Hikigaya didn't understand was why the store owner gave him a thumbs up.

Anything that is right will be praised.

After they finished eating the noodles, they parted ways in the dormitory building, and Hikigaya and the others returned to their dormitories.

At this time.

In the girls' dormitory.

"That..."

Hasebe Haruka scratched her hair and glanced at Sakura across from her.

"Airi, why don't you forget about him? I feel like you and he are really not suitable for each other."

"Eh?"

Sakura Airi was shocked and was about to cry:

"Why? Am I not good enough for him?"

"No...it's because he can't be with you."

"How come?"

Sakura Airi was a little happy: "Without that incident, if I could be with Hikki, it would definitely be the happiest thing in my life.

"Forget it, just be happy."

Hasebe Haruka stroked her forehead and sighed helplessly.

"Anyway, I will help. However, if you two date in the future, if you have any dissatisfaction, you must tell me and I will definitely help you.

"Hikki will not bully me."

Sakura Airi had a pretty face, but her face was a little red for some reason.

If only Hikigaya could hug her and lie on the sofa, and the two of them would watch TV together.

Or.

Hikigaya works as a photographer and producer for her photo album.

Together they make money to support their family.

How wonderful it would be.
