Does gravity make me stronger?

"Yes."

"So, when did you get up today?"

Why are you asking this?

"Let me give you a brief overview."

"Around six o'clock?" Su Shi said, tilting her head.

"Oh, if you put it that way, then I'll feel even more guilty accepting it. I feel like I'll feel really guilty after eating it."

"But it's a very happy thing to be able to cook for someone you like."

"Since you put it that way, then I shall respectfully comply..."

Hachiman put the lunchbox into his schoolbag, then heard Nagasaki Motoyo ask, "By the way, are you free this afternoon?"

"Sorry, I'm already on a schedule."

Hachiman spoke righteously.

The wicked slave owner, Ijichi Hoshika, had already taken away all of his rest time this week, leaving only this afternoon unscheduled.

Therefore, we must protect this rest time no matter what.

"Alright then." Hearing Hachiman's reply, Nagasaki Motoyo sighed regretfully, but did not press the matter further.

As it got closer to work, the number of people around the main road began to increase.

Hachiman promised to take Suze to the tram station today, but when he got to the tram station, he found it was already packed with people.

Looking at the uniformly dressed office workers, Hachiman felt a pang of sadness and sympathy: "I hope I don't become like that in the future."

So hurry up and latch onto a rich woman's coattails! Friendly reminder: the one next to you is a rich woman.

I know without you telling me.

Hachiman glanced nervously at the girl beside him.

Seeing Hachiman's gaze, Suze smiled brightly: "Hachiman?"

To be honest, he still hasn't gotten used to this form of address. It seemed quite natural when Deng said it, but hearing Su Shi say it made him feel a little embarrassed.

Calm down, me!

While Hachiman was lost in thought, Suze suddenly remembered something and slowed down.

Before Hachiman could react, the previously intimate distance between them instantly widened.

The surrounding crowd scurried in and out like rats, managing to squeeze through the gaps between them, and soon formed a human wall.

The girl vanished from sight in an instant, and a moment later, only a panicked voice could be heard from behind the crowd.

"Hachiman, where are you?"

"Don't move... Excuse me, could you move aside?" Hachiman hurriedly squeezed through the crowd. Suze was right across from him, but he kept moving outward with the flow of people.

In his haste, Hachiman grabbed her hand and pulled her towards him forcefully.

With a soft "ya," Suyo naturally nestled into Hachiman's arms.

"Um, excuse me..."

"It's alright." Su Shi felt the boy's body temperature and lowered her eyelids in relief.

Looking at the bustling crowd, Hachiman couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected there to be so many people here. I really don't know how you managed to get to school back then."

It's better to have more people.

Although I don't usually get on the train from this station.

Su Shi secretly revealed a triumphant smile, but quickly feigned fear and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked you to meet here. I didn't expect there to be so many people at this stop."

"It's not your fault."

Hachiman shook his head and led Suyo to the platform.

A tram heading in the other direction arrived, and after a group of people had left, the area around the platform became a little more spacious.

Seeing this, Hachiman was about to let go when he found that his hand was being held tightly by the other person, who showed no intention of letting go.

"Um, my hand..."

"Hey—"

Suze's sudden words interrupted Hachiman's speech.

"What?" He looked up and saw Su Shi's face beaming with happiness. "Will you stay with me like this from now on?"

Chapter 142, Page 140: Boqi-chan: Your Majesty, I'm Too Late to Save You! (4K)

[Does Su Shi's statement mean she wants to lock the buses?]

Who are you calling a bus?

Hachiman thought to himself.

but.

Hachiman was not unaware of Nagasaki Motoyo's eagerness to advance their relationship.

He pursed his lips, took a half-step back fearfully, and was a little unsure how to answer the other person.

Should we take the initiative to make it clear?

Hachiman: Souyo-kun, just be honest, do you want to be my girlfriend?

Suze: Huh? Hachiman, you must have misunderstood. We're just friends (smiles).

Red nose +1

Dark history +1

Thinking of this, Hachiman awkwardly dug his toes into the ground.

Countless times, he had fallen victim to such beautiful fantasies, which is why he was extremely cautious and apprehensive at this moment.

Despite always considering myself a lone warrior, I'm actually a bit lost now that I've come this far.

Ultimately, is this favorability rating reliable?

Neither advancing nor retreating, Hachiman felt as if he were standing at a crossroads in history, with an abyss on one side and another on the other.

Or should we reassess the situation?

"Besides, besides—"

Just as Hachiman was at a loss, the train bound for Tsuki no Mori slowly approached him like Noah's Ark. He quickly said, "Suyo-kun, the train is here, I'll take you on."

"Ok?"

Su Shi glanced casually at the approaching tram, maintaining her cheerful smile: "Okay, then let's wait for the next tram."

"Hmm, wait for the next tram... huh?"

Hachiman was stunned. At that moment, the tram arrived at the station, the gates slowly opened, and people continued to get on and off.

Su Shi still held Hachiman's hand, showing no intention of getting into the carriage. She parted her lips slightly and said, "So, Hachiman, can you answer my question from earlier?"

"Will you be able to stay with me like this in the future?"

"If you have time..."

"That's not what I meant." Su Shi shook her head, paused, and said, "Or, I need to be more direct, someone who can become my man..."

"Hikigaya-san?"

A cute little pink-haired girl stepped out of the open car door, and upon seeing the familiar face before her, she beamed and said, "It really is Hachiman-kun, good morning..."

"stare!"

Upon seeing the murderous glare from Suze, Goto Ichiri's greeting abruptly stopped.

Was her arrival at the wrong time?

No, you've come at the perfect time!

Hachiman's face showed an expression of seeing a savior.

"Um, I'm sorry, please pretend I was never here."

Like a little white rabbit being targeted by an experienced hunter, Goto Ichiri trembled and was about to return to the train when the gate closed unexpectedly.

"Driver, open the door!"

Goto Ichiri's weak fist had barely tapped the gate when she was immediately pulled back by the flight attendant beside her.

"Are you asking for it?!"

"sorry..."

After the flight attendant left, cursing and swearing, the three of them were left staring at each other on the platform.

After a long silence, Hachiman broke the silence first: "Good morning, Goto-kun. Do you usually get off here?"

"Uh-huh." Goto Ichiri nodded, then looked at the girl next to Hachiman.

It's that girl who kissed Hachiman, I think her name is Nagasaki Motoyo. Did I do something wrong? Why does she look so fierce...?

The already shy Goto Ichiri was no match for Sose's deathly gaze; she immediately saw stars and nearly fainted.

Fortunately, Hachiman arrived in time to catch her before she fainted.

This action made Su Shi, who already had a sullen face, even more unhappy.

That girl, the one with the pink hair who ran away yesterday, how dare she bother me at such a crucial moment... How hateful!

but.

It seems that's not all that great about someone who would flee in panic over a kiss.

After analyzing the situation in her mind for a while, Su Shi did not regard Goto Ichiri as a threat, so she snorted and resumed her usual gentle demeanor.

"Um, is this Goto-kun? Nice to meet you, I've heard Hachiman mention you before~"

Opens the clamp in a second!

Motoyo Nagasaki radiates the glow of a mother.

"Oh, really?" Goto Ichiri looked at Hachiman innocently, as if wondering how the other person usually described him.

"Hachiman always says that Goto is a very cute girl and has always treated you like a little sister."

Being her as a younger sister is fine; if you're thinking of her as a girlfriend, you should give up on that idea.

Nagasaki Motoyo's gaze toward Goto Ichiri seemed to say something like that.

Obviously, this kind of veiled meaning that is common among ordinary girls is ineffective for Goto Ichiri, who suffers from severe social anxiety.

Hearing this, she actually touched her head with great pleasure.

"Really? Hehe, Hachiman actually said I'm cute..."

"No, when did I say such a thing?"

After straightening out Goto Ichiri, Hachiman rolled his eyes and thought to himself.

"Hachiman, that's enough for now. You can go back now."

"Um, don't you need me to see you to your car?"

"no need."

"Never mind, I'll stay here."

Goto Ichiri glanced at Hachiman, then at Nagasaki Motoyo, and said weakly, "Um, I have to go now, or I'll be late. I'm sorry."

"Okay, it's alright, you can go now." Hachiman said goodbye to Goto Ichiri, who quickly left as well.

"What a lovely girl, don't you think, Hachiman?"

"I do not know."

Faced with Su Shi's sarcastic words, Hachiman pretended to be clueless without a care in the world.

About five minutes later, the next tram finally arrived at the station.
