COTE: A Man On A Mission || Love is War?

Kushida concluded her today with a dark troubled face, that makes her look very pitiful, “So, I think he’s trying to blackmail me!”

’Although I feel that Kushida often does stupid things. But now, she has provided some good news.’ Hachiman still trusts her memory ability. ’After all, she was too twisted to make such a crude mistake. What she said must be true....Well, since Yagami is not in the junior high school where Kushida is, and he comes to make trouble, it is indeed problematic....Mr. Tsukishiro said that someone from White Room would be arranged to come in, and he also told Ayanokoji that a student would be arranged to come in. But look now, Yagami might also be a student from White Room....Really, Adults never keep their word. How many did you send?’

“Yagami must have a purpose. You can just ignore him when the time comes....”

“Just ignore, what?”

There are 4 exams in a semester.

And in these four exams, as long as you seize the opportunity, you can make a lot of money.

Besides, it’s impossible for Chairman Sakayanagi to never come back, and four exams should be enough for Hikigaya-kun to collect the lost points.

But Kushida doesn’t know that Hikigaya-kun only cares about money now.

“But, he specifically came to you to make trouble, which means he will need you. So he will probably use your dark history to threaten you to do something.”

Good Lord!

’So, is the other party still an insider? Oh no. It should be said that it is very likely that he is a bad student. Since he doesn’t know the truth, why would he come to scam me? What did I ever do to you?!’ Kushida-chan had taken a shower specially to come here, she didn’t want to do anything that would make her sweat and ruin the view, but now she just wanted to kick the railing and curse.

“If he makes a request, you can just choose to refuse. Remember the rumor about Ichinose?”

”Yeah?” Kushida nodded vigorously, Rather, she became the biggest victim in last Ichinose rumor incident.

Not only was her weapon sealed, but she also faced a strong competitor in Ichinose.

Wait a moment!

“So, even if Yagami knows my dark history, he can’t reveal it?!” Kushida finally caught the blind spot. ’So you just knew it and didn’t even send me a message?!’

“But don’t come here again. Since you are being targeted and you reject him, he might follow you and take advantage of your weakness. If he record it live, nature of it will be different if it is released later.”

’Bastard! This means act of kicking the railing here will be sealed! So how do I suppress my emotions? Do I really need to learn to paint to vent? But I really have no talent for such a thing! Oh no. Wait a moment!’ Kushida suddenly discovered a plan.

“Hey-hey----”

Hachiman noticed that Kushida-chan who had turned black for a moment, but now she was white again.

Closing the distance in a romantic manner, ”W-what’s wrong?”

“Can’t we stick together?” Kikyo Kushida is a popular little angel. In the class, Hirata’s image has collapsed, but her image is still strong and is welcomed and liked by a large number of boys and girls.

She herself has a lot of capital.

She is as considerate and kind as a little angel (in the eyes of ordinary people), and also has a very cute appearance.

Now being asked by such a popular little angel...

“Well...it’s not that I can’t do it.” Hikigaya admitted that he didn’t seem to have much resistance. ’It seems that I am just an ordinary high school student. Then it is normal that you cannot resist the cute attack of the little angel!’

“I don’t want to give up my Kushida Empire. But emotions also need to be dealt with. It’s just this place is sealed now. So, I have to choose a new plan.”

So you have an idea?

Hachiman had considered the other party, and then learned from Shiina, and then found that he could arrange for Kushida to learn painting.

Drawing consumes a lot of energy, but if you have talent and learn well, you can make a living from it in the future.

She just rejected it.

Now he was also thinking about the appropriate way and occasion for Kushida to vent her emotions.

“Boss, let’s fall in love!” Kushida suddenly announced an ominous declaration like that which almost gave Hachiman a heart failure.

???

Maybe he thought he understood every word, but didn’t seem to understand them together at all, so Hikigaya-kun looked over at her instantly.



Because he just seemed to have heard Kushida actually say that she wanted to have a relationship! “Is it not possible? Don’t you want me?”

’I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Kushida’s cuteness has increased several times compared to usual...’

“You already know what I’m thinking,” Hachiman decided to make his thoughts clear, “I don’t really believe in relationships....”

“But haven’t we already signed the marriage registration form?” But, Kushida-chan still remains cute.

Hey! Hikigaya-kun suddenly felt that what the other party said made sense.

’I rejected dating during school... on the one hand because of dark history, and on the other. I felt it was unreliable. Because I didn’t want to fail, so I just refused.....’

“According to my research, the probability of a campus romance eventually leading to marriage is only 10-15%. But...” Kushida looked at him seriously, “We are going to get married after graduation. And even if you don’t choose me in the end, the probability is still 50%, right?”

Damn it!

This statement does make sense.

If it was 10%, it would be daunting, but if it was 50%, you might start to get excited.

And now that Kushida no longer has the place to kick railing, she really needs a new way to release her stress.

Love. It will make people stupid and at the same time consume a lot of energy.

It kind of suits her.

“If it’s 50%---” Hachiman began to think and his body cells already started to waver.

Uh-huh. Kushida-chan kept smiling.

At the same time, she felt relieved, because this meant that Hikigaya-kun had not actually developed any new people during this period of time, so her only competitor was still Ichinose.

“So……” Having just proposed a relationship, Kushida knew that boss was unlikely to refuse, “Since we’re in love, Hikigaya-kun, do you think we should do something?”

’What to do? Or, what do you want to do?’ Hikigaya-kun thought it would be better for him to write 100 pieces of classical Japanese texts now!

“For example...”Hachiman felt as if she was coming closer.

At the same time, way of sticking did not take into account that her chest was also leaning against him.

Very soft. Wrong! This is probably just a fa------

“For example, holding hands?” Hikigaya-kun thought quickly and came to an absolutely safe conclusion.

“You tch!” In response, Kushida-chan gave a disdainful glance. Seems quite dissatisfied.

’But this kind of thing is already difficult for Hikigaya-kun, okay? You have to know that before coming to this school, I had never even touched a girl’s hand! Anyway, is it even normal for Kushida to get along with others in a way that starts from the shallow end and gradually progresses to the deep end? The look on your face makes me think… you want to go many steps straight in. Didn’t someone say that? Adults use alcohol and sex to numb and relax themselves. Kushida, if this is the way you want to vent, definitely not love...’ Hachiman rudely thought to himself.
