Chapter 269: Date with Shiina Hiyori.

Time passes.

Ichinose and the others have been preparing for the special exam these past few days, and Hikigaya has no room to intervene in matters requiring communication skills.

As for the academic part of the exam, there's no particular need to worry.

Saturday.

In the dormitory.

Ichinose is still working hard for the special exam, and only Himeno Yuki is here.

She's holding a handheld game console, lying on the bed, enthusiastically playing a game, her semi-transparent white nightgown is somewhat dazzling.

"Well..."

Hikigaya, having dressed, turned around, his gaze involuntarily attracted by her snow-white figure:

"I have something to do, I'll go out for a while."

"Eh?"

Himeno Yuki sat up in a duck-like manner, quickly becoming excited:

"Then I'll go too, I heard there's a new movie being released."

"It's not..."

Hikigaya lifted the bag in his hand, somewhat helplessly saying:

"I'm going to the library to return a book for someone, I'll be back soon."

"For someone?" 

Himeno Yuki looked at the book in his hand, somewhat puzzled:

"Isn't this borrowed from the library? A guy or a girl?"

"Shiina Hiyori from Class B..."

Hikigaya had no intention of hiding it.

Informing his girlfriend about his plan should be a boyfriend's duty.

He doesn't mind, in fact, having one more constraint should help avoid making the same mistake again.

"That's fine then."

Himeno Yuki nodded.

She wouldn't interfere if it was just normal activity, and it shouldn't be a problem in a public place like the library.

"So what time is your appointment with that Shiina."

"Ten o'clock, an hour or so away I think."

"Then do it with me once before you leave! Let's try that position."

Himeno Yuki pointed at the palmtop in her hand and said with some eagerness.

On the screen.

The naked woman was lying on her back, two stubs tugging her twin ponytails from behind in a death grip.

She seemed to have learned a lot on Little Butter.

"This..."

Hikigaya said with some embarrassment, "It's better to wait until Ichinose gets back tonight, I'll go first."

Hikigaya then left the dormitory in a hurry.

Looking at his departing back.

Himeno Yuki's pretty face instantly collapsed, hugging her pillow and lying on the bed sullenly.

These few days.

The three of them didn't have any problems.

But Hikigaya had been refusing to do it with her alone once.

Obviously she was dressed very well.

She jst wanted to make Hikigaya happy, but the guy always had to wait until Ichinose came back.

"Pretentious."

Himeno Yuki curled her lips.

Lifting the cover on her chest, she revealed a flash of snowy white skin inside.

Obviously there was no problem with the night, even Ichinose had agreed.

"Ugh..."

Himeno Yuki sighed helplessly.

It would still take some time.

...

Library.

After returning the last book to Shiina Hiyori, Hikigaya sat down to pass the time.

Honestly.

Although the problem had been solved.

He had fun with Ichinose last time, but he didn't know what kind of attitude to face Himeno Yuki alone.

It was the same as before.

He honestly considered Himeno Yuki as his girlfriend as well.

No matter which kind.

It all felt a bit wrong.

He could only wait for Ichinose to come back, then the atmosphere would be a bit more comfortable.

"Stare~"

Shiina Hiyori sat across from him, using a book to cover the lower half of her pretty face, revealing a scrutinizing gaze.

"What...what."

Hikigaya was suddenly a bit embarrassed.

Logically speaking.

She must have heard the rumors at school, Shiina Hiyori is either disgusted or considering reevaluating their book friend relationship.

It couldn't be more normal.

"Hikki..."

Shiina Hiyori's ethereal voice, with a somewhat sad tone, said:

"You look like you're not very happy, is reading books with me really such a boring thing?"

"No, how could it be... it's just..."

Hikigaya quickly shook his head, and stopped talking halfway through.

Dating two people at the same time.

And wanting to seek the approval of other girls.

It's really too presumptuous.

After thinking about it, he decided not to say it.

"By the way, this is the book list I wrote this time."

Hikigaya quickly changed the topic, pushed the written book list to Shiina Hiyori, and let go.

"Mm, that's more like it."

Looking at the hint of confusion in Hikigaya's eyes, Shiina Hiyori tilted her head and showed a lazy smile.

Although she didn't know the details.

But Hikigaya is obviously not the kind of fickle man, to make him become like this, he might really be helpless.

Shiina Hiyori is very clear about this.

She took out two books from her bag while laughing:

"Since there's no way, then you can only face it calmly, right? Hikki, that's your style."

"That's... true..."

Hikigaya forced a smile.

At this point.

He could only face it and accept it.

Even though he was very clear in his rationality, he was somewhat difficult to accept emotionally.

"Mm..."

Seeing this, Shiina Hiyori showed a smile at the corner of her mouth:

"Hikki, do you want to come to my dormitory?"

"Eh?"

Hikigaya was startled, and quickly shook his head:

"No, I made a promise with someone, I will never go to a girl's dormitory alone again.... "

"Is that so..."

Shiina Hiyori nodded knowingly.

Presumably.

He must have made a promise with that Himeno.

Speaking of which.

That Himeno Yuki is really despicable, knowing that this method would make Hikigaya blame himself, but still chose this method.

However.

From another perspective.

This also shows that Himeno Yuki likes Hikigaya to this extent.

She would rather serve Hikigaya with Ichinose.

She's really brave.

"Alright."

Shiina Hiyori nodded and laughed lazily:

"Then Hikki, can you go to school with me?"

"What are we going to school for?"

"I won't tell you, you'll know when you get there! Just say if you can accompany me for a trip, okay?"

"Alright, that's not a problem."

Hikigaya smiled and nodded.

At least.

The school is a public place and there should be no danger.

Speaking of which.

With Shiina Hiyori's character, she wouldn't do anything excessive, let alone she obviously has no interest in his personal problems.

Shiina Hiyori just wants to read quietly.

Without too much pressure, it makes Hikigaya feel a lot more relaxed.

They leaving the library.

They walked side by side.

"Or you should go first."

Hikigaya hesitated a bit, "I can follow behind you, or tell me the destination, I'll go first."

After all.

His reputation at school now is probably at its worst.

Just being with him.

It's likely to affect Shiina Hiyori's reputation.

"Eh? I don't mind."

Shiina Hiyori looked at the pedestrians next to the street and tilted her head:

"But, in this school, you can't possibly not interact with people for the remaining two years, right? Hikki, are you trying to escape?"

"Indeed..."

Hikigaya took a deep breath.

With the special exam in place, it's impossible to avoid interacting with people all the time.

Avoidance is not shameful.

But when avoidance can neither solve nor eliminate the problem...

You can only face it.

Fortunately.

Shiina Hiyori doesn't care about these things.

Speaking of which,

She always manages to simplify complex problems.

Shiina Hiyori is really amazing!
