Nino took a deep breath and mustered her courage to whisper to Hayakawa, "How about you come to see a movie with me tomorrow?"

Hayakawa: "..."

To be honest, I don't want to go.

There isn't enough time to study.

But she had helped me a lot, and I even ate her breakfast that morning, so it was really hard to refuse.

"Ok."

Hayakawa had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Ugh...cough cough,"

A flash of joy crossed Nino's eyes, nearly causing her to choke, before she handed the movie ticket to Hayakawa: "See you tomorrow then."

"Ah."

Hayakawa accepted the movie ticket expressionlessly, then couldn't help but glance at the earring set on the bedside table, his expression strange.

In that instant, an impulse flashed through his mind.

He wants to get his ears pierced.

It wasn't because I wanted to wear earrings or anything like that, nor was it because my ranking dropped that I hurt myself; I just wanted to remember this humiliation.

This defeat robbed Hayakawa of his dignity, leaving him dejected, ashamed, and even driving him to the point of drowning his sorrows in alcohol on the street. He wanted to remember this day with a deeply etched physical pain.

If he ever becomes lazy in the future, this pain will immediately wake him up.

"Hayakawa! Have you forgotten how much your ears hurt?!"

"I will never forget... I dare not forget (tears streaming down my face)"

In ancient times, Goujian endured hardship and humiliation to achieve his goal... Now, I, Hayakawa, am filled with painful memories!

Chapter 156 Perseverance

this…!

Hayakawa fantasized about this scene, and his head suddenly went blank.

This is it! Isn't this one of those classic stories? Every great person has one, the kind you read in textbooks.

"Oh!"

Hayakawa felt his blood turning hot, and a strange light flickered in his eyes.

When I attain immortality in the future, this history will surely be passed down through generations!

"Ninai,"

With that thought in mind, Hayakawa looked at the earring device and couldn't help but ask, "Are there any precautions to take when using this?"

"Oh, no, not at all,"

Nino paused for a moment, then said, "As long as you pay attention to disinfection and avoid infection, it's fine."

"That's it."

Hayakawa withdrew his gaze, his eyes flashing with a dangerous light.

……

"Then I'm leaving. See you later."

Hayakawa stood at the door, turned around and said something to the girls in the living room.

"Ah, see you at school the day after tomorrow."

May called out from the sofa.

"Bye-Bye…"

Nino looked at Hayakawa and said something softly, but didn't get up to see her off. She had already used up all her courage by inviting Hayakawa to the movies.

Seeing this, Yotsuba stood up and said, "I'll see you out, Hayakawa-san!"

"Ah."

Hayakawa nodded and walked out of the room. Yotsuba followed him out of the house and stood in the hallway waiting for the elevator.

"Does your head still hurt?"

Yotsuba stood prettily next to Hayakawa, secretly observing him, and asked in a low voice.

Hayakawa shook his head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Actually, she was in so much pain that she felt dizzy and even nauseous, but Hayakawa wouldn't say much about it.

"That's good. Go home and get some rest. Don't go out drinking again."

Yotsuba chattered on and on, watching the elevator floor number on the display screen getting closer and closer, and finally couldn't help but ask, "What did Nino say to you when you went to her room just now?"

"Nino, she invited me to go to the movies."

Without hesitation, Hayakawa replied, "Tomorrow."

Yotsuba's pupils dilated instantly: "You... said yes to her?"

"Ah."

Hayakawa said calmly. Just then, the elevator doors opened, and he entered the elevator. He turned around and waved to Yotsuba outside, saying, "I'm leaving. You can leave me here."

Yotsuba didn't respond, she just nodded.

The elevator doors closed, and Hayakawa disappeared.

"..."

Yotsuba stood at the elevator door for a while, then silently turned around and went home, her expression calm.

Perhaps I shouldn't be sad, even seeing Nino and Hayakawa together, even seeing Nino holding Hayakawa's hand. After all, in my eyes, Nino is more suitable for Hayakawa. It's something to celebrate that the two of them can be together. Even so, I can't help but be sad. But liking someone or something doesn't necessarily mean you have to possess them. Even just seeing them is a kind of happiness.

Whether it's sadness or joy, it's all part of your life...

Yotsuba thought to herself, and a smile returned to her face. She planned to stay home with her sisters the next day, pretending that nothing had happened.

……

My own life is a huge, passionate comic book.

Hayakawa returned home, lay on the bed, and closed his eyes wearily.

My head hurts so much... My stomach feels terrible too, like it's burning hot and like there's magma surging inside. I feel nauseous and want to vomit, but the physical pain is nothing compared to the grief in my heart.

"Well…"

Hayakawa struggled, covering half of her body with the blanket, and uncontrollably fell into a painful dream.

This failure hit him harder than he had imagined, even worse than his previous fever. Even after a night's rest, he couldn't recover and it seemed he couldn't study anymore and needed to rest more.

"The old bridge...Ogata..."

Lost in her dream, Hayakawa murmured the names of the two people, her expression contorted with rage and confusion.

Those were two names etched in his memory; he would never forget them.

He always felt that his life and his world were a huge, passionate comic book, and he was the protagonist of this comic book, a positive character who strives and works hard. He believed that the story began when he entered high school.

As for Furuhashi and Ogata, they are the villainous bosses. Along the way, there are also interim bosses like Natsukawa Masuzu and Doma Umaru, who will be defeated one by one and become stumbling blocks on the road to the top.

But it's really hard...

Hayakawa lowered his head as the pages of his dream-like comic slowly opened, revealing a chaotic cover.

"A duel between the strongest cannot be described by ordinary standards!"

"True strength is what ultimately allows one to stand at the summit..."

"It is a gift from God...a rare talent."

"It is the indomitable will of humankind!"

Hayakawa: "..."

An annoying dream.

……

"dong dong dong~"

Around 5 p.m., Minami Aizami arrived at the Hayakawa family's door as usual and knocked.

After a while, the sound of the door opening came, and the door was opened the next moment, revealing Hayakawa's body inside.

"You've arrived, senior."

Hayakawa said weakly, stepping aside, "Come in."

"Junior..."

Komi Aizawa looked at Hayakawa in front of her, slightly taken aback: "What's wrong with you?"

Before him stood Hayakawa, wearing a loose white shirt with empty sleeves that made his body appear very thin. His handsome face was hidden in the shadow of the door panel, devoid of any color, instead bearing a sickly pallor. He stood with his arms propped against the door frame, looking utterly dejected.

"I'm just feeling a little unwell,"

Hayakawa shook his head reluctantly: "It's nothing serious."

"Oh...I see."

Xiao Mei's face flushed slightly. She felt that Hayakawa now had a kind of decadent beauty, like a noble young master hidden in a dark castle. On the surface, he was young, pure and spotless, but he was cynical, lifeless, rotten and decadent, and in the end, he was a ghoul despised by the world.

"Well…"

Xiao Meilang Aicheng's mind wandered for a while, and this idea came to her mind. Perhaps because of her family situation, she often came into contact with patients, so she quite liked this type.

"Ahem, I'm going in."

Xiao Meilang coughed lightly, stopping her own imagination, and went into the room to take off the purple fur coat she was wearing. She didn't forget to say to Hayakawa with concern, "Take care of yourself, junior. If you get a fever like last time, you'll have to take leave again."

"I see."

Hayakawa was too lazy to explain that she got sick because she couldn't accept failure, so she just nodded in agreement, sat down next to Minami Aisumi, picked up her schoolbag and opened it: "Let's start studying."

"Um…"

Xiao Meilang looked at Hayakawa with concern and opened her textbook.

Hayakawa took a deep breath, intending to hold on and at least get through the night, when suddenly there was a knocking sound at the door.

"Who would come here so late at night?"

Kominami Aizami went to open the door with a puzzled look, and Hayakawa followed, fearing there might be a problem.

Chapter 157 Teaching Until Dawn

Hayakawa arrived at the door and cautiously asked, "Who is it?"

Now that Minami Aizumi is at home, it would be a bit dangerous if Furuhashi and Ogata came over, since they don't know that Minami is giving her lessons, and they would have to find an excuse to fool them.

"Hayakawa, is your senior here?"

A woman's voice came from outside the door: "Open the door quickly, I just saw it."

Upon hearing this voice, Hayakawa's previously calm face instantly turned into a deathly expression.

He would never forget that voice, even in death. It was the very person who had brought him to this miserable state—Doma Umaru!

"Uh-huh!"

Hayakawa suddenly yanked the door open, the large, sweeping movement startling Minami Aizawa, who stared at him in bewilderment.

"what!"

Doma Umaru outside the door was also startled and took half a step back.

"Yo~"
