Chapter 29: What is Saika's Gender?

Haruno's stay, aside from having to deal with her sudden tests and pranks, didn't really affect Yukinoshita Yukino's life.

Especially last night when Haruno insisted on taking a bath together, it was really annoying.

A week ago, if Yukinoshita Yukino had been pestered by her sister like this, she might have half-heartedly agreed. But now, with an uninvited guest in her body, she could only firmly refuse.

Thinking about the chaotic scene last night gave the girl a headache, not to mention that these days would continue.

Having a noisy parasite in her head was already lively enough, and now with a sister who loves to tease her, the house was really getting too

"lively."

"What a pity."

Hayashizaki sighed regretfully.

"A parasite with dirty thoughts should be sprayed with insecticide!"

Yukinoshita Yukino said coldly, her ethereal voice carrying a chill, like the icy wind blowing across the Siberian tundra.

Unfortunately, it had no effect on Hayashizaki.

"When I said 'pity,' I meant being strictly watched by your sister and unable to move freely. What are you thinking about?"

He said seriously.

With these words, the situation changed.

Yukinoshita Yukino, who rarely surfed the internet and hadn't experienced the baptism of the internet, didn't expect this person to shamelessly talk nonsense with a straight face.

It sounded like she was the one with inappropriate thoughts, making her blush slightly. Her words lost some of their momentum:

"I underestimated the shamelessness of the parasite"

At this time, there were only two people in the service club. If someone unrelated came in, Hayashizaki would dive into the background, so they didn't use the brain channel to communicate.

Before long, Hikigaya Hachiman arrived in the clubroom.

"Good afternoon... Oh, you're here."

When he saw Yukinoshita Yukino with her eyes wide open, he was startled.

No matter when, seeing this scene suddenly would always be shocking.

"Haven't seen you around these past few days."

Hikigaya Hachiman put down his bag and sat in his seat, casually starting a conversation.

"Well, more people are joining this club, so there's not much chance to come out."

"Indeed, it might be because Hiratsuka-sensei is quietly promoting it."

Not to mention, with Yuigahama, an ordinary person, joining the club, it has become inconvenient to discuss matters related to the jujutsu world.

At first, Hikigaya Hachiman thought that letting Yuigahama join the club was also Hayashizaki's idea, but later he found out it wasn't. It was just because Yukinoshita, as the club president, couldn't resist Yuigahama's enthusiasm.

Yukinoshita is still too soft-hearted.

After sighing in his heart, Hikigaya Hachiman took this time to bring up a serious matter:

"So, how's Yukinoshita's sister's situation? There shouldn't be any big problems, right?"

"Not a big problem, just that Yukinoshita is being confined by her sister."

"Please don't use such strange terms."

Yukinoshita Yukino pinched her brow and said helplessly,

"It's just because of work. My sister is living with me now, so it's not as convenient to move around as before."

"If there's a good reason, my sister wouldn't stop me from going out... probably."

From what she knew about Haruno, if she said she wanted to go out now, her sister would probably follow her directly.

"Probably?"

Hikigaya Hachiman instinctively retorted, but then he realized an important issue,

"So, until Yukinoshita regains her freedom, we can't go out to exorcise curses, right?"

"Technically, that's correct."

Hayashizaki grinned.

However, before Hikigaya Hachiman could be happy for a few seconds, he said meaningfully,

"But is this really okay?"

"What do you mean?"

Hikigaya Hachiman had a feeling that Hayashizaki wouldn't say anything good, so he tried to predict his thoughts and quickly said,

"I've been training my body and cursed energy at home, so I haven't been slacking off!"

"That's not what I meant."

Hayashizaki waved his hand, but in Hikigaya's eyes, it was Yukinoshita Yukino making the gesture.

"Ordinary people, when encountering strong curses, are almost instantly killed. Even with weak curses, ordinary people who get entangled with them will suffer from physical fatigue, mental disorders, and other negative effects. If not resolved, they will eventually die."

"I remember you said when you first came that you saw many curses on your way to school, right? Those were weak ones. Even with your current strength, you could probably handle them easily."

"Even if it's a dog about to be hit by a car, you would risk your life to save it. With your ability to help others, can you really ignore those ordinary people?"

"Actually, whether or not to exorcise curses doesn't matter much to me. Teaching you guys is just a hobby."

Hayashizaki said casually,

"Unlike Yukinoshita, you don't have a troublesome sister. How you act is up to you."

After hearing Hayashizaki's words, Hikigaya Hachiman's face turned ugly.

Putting aside the previous words, just consider it a bowl of poisonous chicken soup. But why does Hayashizaki know that I got hit by a car while saving a dog!?

Although he felt cool when he saved that dachshund, thinking back, he realized how stupid his actions were.

"Think about it yourself, someone's coming."

Hayashizaki finished speaking and then hid to watch, leaving behind a boy with a slightly lowered head and a complicated expression.

Not long after, Yuigahama Yui opened the clubroom door and walked in, followed by a petite... girl?

No, this is a boy, right?

With Yukinoshita Yukino's sharp eyes, Hayashizaki noticed a slightly protruding Adam's apple, not very obvious, somewhere between a boy and a girl.

"Hello~ I brought the client!"

Yuigahama cheerfully greeted everyone and then pushed the cute boy in front of her with a smile.

"Um, I'm Totsuka Saika, in the same class as Hikigaya. Nice to meet you."

Totsuka Saika, with short silver hair, had a shy smile on his slightly red face. He scratched his cheek with his finger, then his face bloomed into a flower-like smile. His soft, neutral voice made it almost impossible to tell his true gender.

At this moment, a boy with dead fish eyes was mesmerized by this beautiful scene.

I want to protect this smile forever!
