Even with chuunibyou, let's learn together!

I said that just to discourage her from traveling, not to find a safer place!

……

The two ate snacks and chatted at the table. While watching a comedy variety show on TV, Xiao Meilang talked to Hayakawa about the things that happened during his trip, trying to find out as much as possible about everything, which made Hayakawa a little helpless.

"By the way, junior,"

Aimi Nami reached for the remote and changed the channel: "Do you remember when you lent me and Umaru your computer before you left?"

"Uh, is that so?"

Hayakawa looked up, his face blank; as expected, he had completely forgotten about the matter.

"Yes, I used your computer during this time, and then..."

Xiao Meilang said something, then looked apologetic and bowed deeply to Hayakawa: "I'm sorry, I broke your computer."

Chapter 382 The King of Ichinose

"I'm sorry, junior, I broke your computer."

Kominami Aizawa looked at Hayakawa with a guilty expression and truthfully told her what she had originally wanted to hide.

Originally, she was unwilling to be honest; she wanted to at least gain some favor first, otherwise, how could she be so embarrassed? But when Ayame saw the photo on Hayakawa's phone screen, she suddenly felt... perhaps being more honest would be a better choice.

Two people who truly like each other must be in sync. If they keep everything to themselves, are hesitant and timid, and say one thing but mean another, they will only create misunderstandings and end up being overtaken by someone else and becoming the loser.

That's right, overtaking on a curve...

Xiao Meilang Aicheng looked a little jealous as she thought about that group photo.

It was only a few days of travel for the juniors to go on with those two female students, and they've already changed their screensavers to a group photo. That's already like being treated like a girlfriend. If they were to go on a trip together for a few more days, they'd probably have to meet each other's parents by then!

No, absolutely not!

I need to come up with a plan, otherwise my "loser loli" body type might come into play.

"computer?"

Upon hearing this, Hayakawa's expression changed immediately, and he asked in confusion, "Is it broken?"

As he spoke, Hayakawa got up and went to his bedroom. He went to the computer and pressed the power button. After a few seconds of booting up, the computer screen displayed a garbled image.

"Yes, really, it's broken."

Hayakawa blinked, her expression unchanged, and turned to look at Minami Aizawa, asking, "What's going on?"

"Um…"

Xiao Meilang Aicheng nervously twisted her fingers in front of her chest, and after a while, she said in a low voice with a slightly flushed face, "I was playing games and eating snacks, and I accidentally spilled cola on them."

Ultimately, he was too embarrassed to tell Hayakawa about downloading and receiving inappropriate videos, otherwise his image would be completely ruined.

"Really,"

After hearing this, Hayakawa pursed his lips and said, "Be careful."

Xiao Meilang Aicheng bowed her head and sincerely apologized: "I am truly sorry."

Hayakawa waved his hand calmly: "It's alright, it's nothing serious."

Good job! I knew my junior wouldn't be angry with me over such a small thing!

Komi Nami Aizumi secretly cheered in her heart, but still put on an innocent look on her face: "I'm sorry, junior, I will take the responsibility of finding someone to fix it."

"Need not,"

Hayakawa waved his hand dismissively, "I'll find some time after school tomorrow to have it fixed."

Huh? You want me to fix this? Isn't this a huge problem? What if I mess up those documents?!

"No, no, no, no"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Meilang was immediately shocked and shook her head vigorously. She grabbed Hayakawa's hand and said with utmost sincerity, "Breaking the computer is all my fault. Since it's my fault, I should take responsibility. How can I trouble you, my junior? Please let me pay for the repairs myself."

"Uh…"

Hayakawa hadn't expected Aimi to feel so ashamed and took such responsibility, and subconsciously said, "It's nothing."

"Yes, yes, let me do it myself!"

Xiao Meilang Aicheng's face flushed red, and her soft voice seemed to be squeezed out from her throat: "After all, I'll still need to use your computer in the future. If you don't let me take responsibility now, how can I lend it to you in the future?"

Ugh... So embarrassing...

When Xiaomei Lang Aicheng said those words, she felt a chill run down her spine. She had broken someone else's computer and then said she would borrow it again in the future. Xiaomei Lang didn't know how she could have said such a thing, but she couldn't find an excuse otherwise.

In this situation, anyone would probably feel offended and somewhat angry. Fortunately, Hayakawa is no ordinary person; upon hearing this, he simply nodded thoughtfully.

It seems that Senior Meilang has a stronger sense of pride than she imagined.

Hayakawa thought to himself, then said nonchalantly, "Alright, take it to get it repaired. There's no rush. I don't use it much anyway, so it's fine anytime."

"call…"

Upon hearing this, Ayame Komi finally breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest, which was as flat as a primary school student's: "Leave it to me."

Although I will eventually have to pay for the computer repair, lose my tutoring salary for the past two months, and have to live frugally from now on, at least I managed to cover up the inappropriate documents and even got closer to Hayakawa... Overall, it's a good situation.

Thinking of this, Ayame Kominami's mood improved a bit. She rubbed her head against Hayakawa's shoulder and teased, "Speaking of which, junior, I played a lot of games while you were away. There are so many fun types of games."

"what?"

Hayakawa silently turned his head and looked at her expressionlessly: "Weren't you studying at home?"

They even used that as an excuse to reject me.

"Don't worry about the details, the important thing is that it's a fun game!"

Kominami Aizami blushed under Hayakawa's gaze and quickly changed the subject, saying, "I downloaded an app, and it's full of really cool games."

The girl poked him with her finger, looked up at him with a teasing smile, and said, "Aren't you interested in learning more about me?"

"..."

Hayakawa looked down and glanced back, his eyes filled with utter disgust.

"Don't play."

Hayakawa said, his tone not decisive, but rather as calm as still water.

Don't say things like that.

With her arms outstretched, Mimi Nami exaggeratedly expressed her feelings: "What's wrong with trying it out a little?"

"Absolutely not."

Hayakawa moved away from her with disgust: "Don't come any closer."

"I'm telling you, it has that latest type of battlefield..."

Kominami Aizami shamelessly approached Hayakawa, insisting on sharing her gaming experiences: "It's super exciting, it will definitely add a lot of fun to your peaceful life."

Hayakawa covered her ears: "Don't tell me that kind of thing..."

"Hey, why is that?"

So, after returning home, the precious study time was completely wasted because of Ayame's constant pestering.

……

A new day marks the end of the holiday and the start of a new school year.

After getting off the tram, I walked slowly along the stone steps of the pedestrian path. The winter sun shone through the gradually yellowing branches overhead and fell on the faces of passersby, bringing a touch of lazy warmth.

Hayakawa's mood was like the sunshine, fiery and full of hope.

Looking ahead, past the many students in school uniforms, you can see the high school you've been longing for, the school you've been dreaming of.

In an instant, a new trend emerged.

This feeling is irrepressible!

"..."

Hayakawa gazed longingly at the school's iron gate before him, and after a long while, he murmured to himself.

"I am back."

Chapter 383 Human Favor

"I am back."

Hayakawa's voice was as soft as a sigh. As the voice faded, the flowers in the school's flowerbeds, which had been dull, seemed to come back to life in an instant, becoming bright and dazzling again. The trees at the school gate, which had drooped and withered from the cold, swayed their few remaining branches and leaves in the wind, as if welcoming the return of the king of this world.

Hayakawa wore a calm smile, and his steps became increasingly powerful and majestic, like a lion marching towards its territory.

The doorway was getting closer and closer, right in front of us.

At this moment, Hayakawa's gaze transcended time and space, meeting that of the great man celebrated throughout the world. At that time, he stood before the turbulent banks of the Rubicon River, torn between whether to lead his troops across it. The dull clatter of armor behind him and the rushing sound of the river in front of him forced him to cast the dice of fate.

Once you cross this river, you will never turn back.

To become a dictator... or a sinner... is a matter of a single thought for him.

Ultimately, he chose to lead his troops across the river.

At this moment, Hayakawa's feelings may have been somewhat different, but the kingly boldness and decisiveness were no different.

In the end, Hayakawa chose to step through the iron gate.

"Ichinose..."

Hayakawa gazed at the towering school building ahead and said softly, "Your emperor has returned."

"what are you saying?"

Suddenly a female voice came from the side, her tone filled with confusion and bewilderment.

The smile on Hayakawa's face disappeared.

Hayakawa silently turned her head to look at the source of the sound, and saw Nakano Ichika, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, standing next to her, looking at her with a puzzled expression, as if she couldn't quite understand what she had just said.

"..."

Why do I always get interrupted by random people whenever I try to express my feelings?

Hayakawa slowly frowned, his heart filled with anger.

Is this what they call a heavenly tribulation? Heaven is jealous of my breakthrough in mental state, so it sends down a tribulation to break my Dao heart. That's why every time I rouse my spirit, there are always inexplicable people appearing.

That's not surprising, that's not surprising at all...

Hayakawa's expression returned to normal, and a glimmer of light appeared in his empty, lifeless eyes.

"Ya...ya hello?"

Clearly sensing Hayakawa's somewhat unfriendly expression, Nakano Ichika's previously natural greeting became cautious: "Are you alright?"

"..."

Hayakawa remained silent for a long time before finally replying, "It's nothing."

After saying that, Hayakawa quickened his pace. He didn't want to get entangled with this person any further, in case she brought up what had just happened.

Hayakawa walked into the teaching building, but heard footsteps behind him, and his face immediately darkened.

Why is this person following me... Oh, this is the teaching building, everyone comes here.

"Wait, why are you running so fast?"

Suddenly, Nakano Ichika behind her quickened her pace and walked alongside Hayakawa, pouting slightly and saying with dissatisfaction, "Hayakawa-kun, did you forget all your friends who stayed in your hometown of Ichinose after you went on a trip for a few days? I'm so sad."

"..."

Hayakawa stood in the middle of the stairs, remained silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked, "Where are your sisters? Don't you usually go to and from school together? Why are you alone today?"

"Ah, this?"

Nakano Ichika was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and explained, "I accidentally got up a little early today. Nino and the others were still sleeping, so I left early."

"Hey, you actually get up early!"

Hayakawa raised an eyebrow in surprise: "Unexpected."

"How...how do you know I often have trouble getting out of bed?!" Upon hearing this, Nakano Ichika took a half-step back as if facing a formidable enemy, her face flushed as she questioned, "Tell me quickly, who leaked our Nakano family's top secret?"

"Can sleeping in be considered a secret now?"
