Gymnasium.
Principal's address, Student Council speech.
School entrance ceremonies were mostly the same; Hikigaya Komachi was listening and getting drowsy.
Just then.
A school senior walked onto the stage, and Hikigaya Komachi's attention was instantly drawn.
Oh, as expected of this school.
Hikigaya Komachi's eyes lit up.
Not only did it feel like the average looks were high, there was actually such a super handsome guy.
Back held perfectly straight.
Jet-black hair combed in a trendy style.
A faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
A pity.
It would be best if he had a pair of dead fish eyes.
It hit Hikigaya Komachi's strike zone perfectly.
However.
The seniors below the stage suddenly became silent.
Something feels a little off.
After all, besides the new students, the seniors below the stage were already very quiet, but it feels like the atmosphere has suddenly become somewhat oppressive?
What is going on?
Hikigaya Komachi is somewhat sensitive to the atmosphere.
Is that riajuu (normie) senior on stage such a dangerous person?
Just then.
That riajuu senior on stage smiled and picked up the microphone.
"Everyone, I am the Student Council Vice President from Class 3-A, Hikigaya Hachiman. On this occasion where spring is in full bloom, I welcome you all to Advanced Nurturing High School. This school..."
"Eh!?"
Hikigaya Komachi blinked. What is this guy talking about?
Hikigaya Hachiman?
It's over.
It must be because it's been too long since they last met that her ears are experiencing hallucinations.
How could this riajuu senior be that trashy Onii-chan?
Look closer!
This riajuu senior is not only dressed fashionably, but he also has a faint, approachable smile on his face.
More importantly.
His face is covered in exquisite makeup—the so-called "no-makeup" look.
In Sakurajima.
It isn't rare for boys to wear makeup.
One could even say makeup is one of the essential skills of a riajuu.
But thinking about it carefully.
That's the trashy Onii-chan who takes less than three minutes to wash up in the morning and just wipes his face randomly with a towel.
How could he have anything to do with a riajuu senior like this?
Impossible, impossible, impossible!
Moreover.
The surname Hikigaya is rare, but it's not unheard of, and Hachiman can be traced back to Hachiman Daibosatsu.
It's not impossible to bump into someone with the same first and last name.
How could this be.
Hikigaya Komachi knows very well.
The probability of such a thing is simply too low.
The entrance ceremony ended.
Hikigaya Komachi hurriedly followed the main group.
"Speaking of which, why did that guy Hikigaya go up to give the speech? Isn't Ichinose the President?"
"Does that even need to be said? He definitely wants to make a move on the freshmen girls, right?"
"Besides, Ichinose is just a puppet being manipulated by Hikigaya. What's there to be surprised about?"
Hearing this.
Hikigaya Komachi was greatly shocked.
It's over.
Trashy brother has turned into actual trash.
No, she must investigate this clearly.
Thinking of this.
Hikigaya Komachi decided not to meet today; she should get along with her classmates and buy some daily necessities first.
The next day after school, Third-Year Area.
"Hikki?, why do you seem so listless all day? Did something happen?"
"No, it's just that my sister..."
...relationship.
"Speaking of which, Honami, your sister seems to have enrolled too, right?"
"Yeah, but..."
Himeno Yuki and Sakura Airi spoke one after another.
Hikigaya opened the OAA.
Looking at the long-lost avatar of his sister in Class 1-A.
Receiving a contact from his sister last year, he guessed this fellow would choose this school.
It's just.
His sister was actually assigned to Class A right at the start.
As expected of Komachi.
It makes sense.
Although Komachi's academic ability isn't great, she actually has many little clevernesses, and her social skills are top-tier; she can get along with anyone.
Being assigned to Class A is natural, then.
He originally wanted to show Komachi his cool side, which is why he discussed with Ichinose to let him go on stage to give the speech.
However.
Komachi didn't come to find him even after enrolling.
Although he saw her from a distance in the first-year area at noon, it felt like he was being avoided.
Shy?
That should be impossible...
In his current state, it wouldn't be strange to be disliked by family.
It wouldn't be surprising if something was said.
Hikigaya couldn't help but feel a bit nervous.
On the other side.
The Third-Year Area.
Hikigaya Komachi came to a corner, intending to observe secretly, but found that someone was already there ahead of her.
A girl with short, golden-pink hair.
She was hiding at the corner, secretly observing the hallway.
Her figure was voluptuous, with magnificent peaks pressed against the wall.
What is this person doing?
Hikigaya Komachi stood behind her and poked her little head out to take a look.
In the hallway.
Two girls were walking away from the classroom, holding Hikigaya Hachiman's arms.
Liar!
Hikigaya Hachiman is a scumbag who two-times!
Although she had heard rumors.
She didn't expect that trashy brother would not only get a girlfriend, but two of them?
Komachi was deeply hit.
Hikigaya Komachi patted her chest; just one look made her feel like her heart couldn't take it.
She was simply shocked.
What exactly happened to make that brother turn into what he is now?
By the way, is this person stalking Onii-chan?
Looking at the girl in front of her, Hikigaya Komachi felt suspicious standing behind her.
Could it be.
It really is as those school seniors said.
The reason Onii-chan, as the Student Council Vice President, went on stage was to attract the attention of cute freshmen girls?
How could that be?
Hikigaya Komachi shook her head repeatedly.
...Hachiman.
When did that trashy brother learn such excellent pickup skills?
Impossible, impossible, impossible.
There must be some kind of problem.
Besides.
The student in front of her might not be a first-year; she might be a senior, and she might not necessarily be stalking Hikigaya Hachiman.
After hesitating for a moment.
Hikigaya Komachi hung back behind this girl, following the riajuu brother in front to the Student Council room.
She originally thought this person was looking for the Student Council for some business.
But after arriving outside the Student Council room.
The girl still hid at the corner of the wall, staring intently toward the Student Council room.
Until one hour later.
The girl still watched the tightly closed door with a sharp gaze.
Case closed!
This person is definitely stalking Hikigaya Hachiman.
This person is indeed a first-year like me.
Staring at the phone screen, Hikigaya Komachi used this time to find the person's name on the OAA.
Class 1-D, Ichinose...
It feels like a name she's heard somewhere before.
There's no search function; didn't they say this school is managed by the Student Council? What is stupid brother doing?
Hikigaya Komachi was a bit speechless.
Forget it.
In any case, Hikigaya Komachi doesn't care about things that don't concern her.
Or she could just go up and ask.
Why is this person stalking her brother? Could she really have been attracted by Onii-chan's cool side?
It seems quite interesting.
Hikigaya Komachi gave a mischievous smile.
