Chapter 12

Komachi nodded with satisfaction.

"Onii-chan, this bag of chips is for you. I can't eat so much."

The younger sister gave him another bag of chips.

"Indeed, I'm a little hungry."

Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly realized this, probably because he had consumed too much energy due to the high intensity of brain use.

"Crack...Crack..."

The two of them ate the chips at the same time and finished them quickly.

"Ha, Onii-chan, I finally understand why they call this the fat otaku happy water. If you stay at home all day, a bottle of Coke can really bring you satisfaction! Hiccup~"

Komachi took a sip of the Coke, put it back, and then smiled with satisfaction.

"Komachi, don't say that, I'll be worried about you."

Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly looked serious.

He didn't want his sister to become as troublesome as a certain dried fish girl.

"Ah, Onii-chan, that's not what I meant. Only Onii-chan can stand staying at home all day."

Komachi then said with a smile.

Hikigaya Hachiman: "..."

Don't ask me for examples!

He silently drank a sip of Coke, feeling the soda pouring into his throat, gurgling, his body seemed to be rejuvenated, and his mood became happy.

"By the way, new neighbors are coming soon, did you know, Onii-chan?"

Komachi brought up the topic again.

"Well, when I went out just now, I saw the moving company's truck. They have already moved the things in. I guess they will move in soon."

He answered casually.

"It seems to be a pretty good family, but a little weird."

Komachi continued.

"Haha..."

My sister seemed to remember something happy and laughed inexplicably.

"Huh?"

Hikigaya Hachiman looked confused.

As if asking, how did you know?

"Onii-chan, you want to ask me why I think so, right?"

Komachi understood the meaning of his expression and explained.

"Because their elders came to visit yesterday, they told mom and dad in advance before moving in, and Onii-chan stayed in the room, and I happened to be there, so I know a little bit."

"I'm telling you, Onii-chan, mom and dad made a joke, they thought it was an aunt who came to visit, but it turned out to be an uncle, but there's nothing we can do, that uncle named Goko Shizuka really looks like a great beauty, if you don't speak, it's hard to tell."

Komachi then explained the whole story.

"Uh, is it true? Why do I feel like it's a story you made up, Komachi?"

Hikigaya Hachiman listened with half belief and half doubt.

"Of course it's true! If you don't believe it, wait until mom and dad come back, ask them, or you will know when you meet that scary-looking uncle!"

Komachi patted his chest and promised.

"Is that so."

Hikigaya Hachiman saw how confident his sister was, so he reluctantly believed what she said.

It was probably after dusk, when night fell.

"Ding Dong."

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

"Is anyone visiting?"

Hikigaya Hachiman heard the doorbell and walked out of the room.

Komachi did the same.

After opening the door, Hikigaya Hachiman saw two very beautiful women standing in front of him.

One was dressed simply, looked very indifferent, expressionless, and had the demeanor of a strong woman.

The other was wearing a pure white shirt, with a very gentle expression, and holding a plastic bag full of fruit in her hand.

"Uncle Gogen, you are here again?"

Komachi stood in front of him first and greeted the two.

At this moment, Hikigaya Hachiman realized that what Komachi said before was indeed true.

If you don't observe carefully, it is really easy to mistake the gender.

"It's Komachi, where are your parents? Because we officially moved in today, we sent some souvenirs."

Goko Shizuka smiled with narrowed eyes.

This obviously strong female and weak male combination seems to be the newly moved neighbors Goko couple?

Hearing the conversation between the two, he judged.

'By the way, I seem to have seen this person somewhere, but it should be the first time I meet him, and the name Goko...'

Hikigaya Hachiman suddenly thought of something, and searched in his mind to get a surprising result.

"Well, my parents have to work overtime, so they will be back a little later in the evening."

Komachi explained the reason.

"Well, I know... May I ask who this is?"

Goko Shizuka cast her eyes on him.

"My Onii-chan."

Komachi replied.

"First meeting, I'm Hikigaya Hachiman, Komachi's brother."

In front of the elders, Hikigaya Hachiman politely introduced himself.

"So you're Komachi's brother. It looks like you two have a very good relationship... Hikigaya-kun looks like someone who can be relied on. I wish my eldest brother could be as mature as you."

Gogen Shizuka looked at the two of them and sighed.

"Ahem."

Next to her, Mrs. Gogen coughed twice and signaled with her eyes.

Gogen Shizuka understood and handed over the fruit without saying any more nonsense.

"Just send it as a token of your appreciation. It's the same for you guys if you give it to Hikigaya-kun. We just moved here and have things to do, so we won't bother you."

After that, the Gogen couple turned around and left.

"By the way, if you have time, you can come to our house to play. My daughter just moved here and doesn't have many friends."

Gogen Shizuka thought of something and turned back to leave a message.

"How about it, Onii-chan, I didn't lie, did I?"

Komachi stared at her.

"It's really incredible."

He fell into deep thought.

That night, after the Hikigaya couple came back, the brother and sister told the story.

"Sending so many fruits, it must have cost them a lot of money."

"It seems that this new neighbor is very nice. If you have time, you can chat with Mrs. Gokou."

The Hikigaya couple's attitude towards the Gokou couple instantly became friendly.

Hikigaya Hachiman was not surprised by the change of his parents.

Because it seems that the Gokou couple chose to live in the same area as them, and their family is probably not rich, not to mention that they have three daughters, which is enough to show the value of this gift.

21 Making friends

The holiday is over, and I am promoted to the second grade.

Hikigaya Hachiman returned to the campus and found the second grade classroom.

Because of the class division, there are fewer familiar faces in the class, and more unfamiliar faces. The situation is similar to before.

In addition, when introducing himself, he noticed a classmate named Orimoto Kaori. It was not because she was so beautiful, but because the original teacher had confessed to her through an email, so he was a little curious, but it seemed that there was nothing special.

Maybe it was because the other person was a bit talkative and became one of the few people that the teacher could talk to at that time, so some unnecessary thoughts came up.

Adolescence is like this, too sensitive.

As a person who has experienced it, he can also understand that state.

A person in the shadow can easily treat the other person as a role like Bai Yueguang, even if the attitude of others towards themselves is actually no different from that towards others.

Unfortunately, sometimes reality is very ruthless.

It is precisely because of this that the teacher was created.

But he is neither a teacher nor a psychological age of this period, so he just sighed a little and then turned his eyes away, not caring at all.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will continue with the same behavior pattern in the rest of his middle school life, becoming a passerby with a little presence, drowning in the crowd, and no one can discover his special soul.

In the first two weeks of school, everything was peaceful, but that was at school, and some accidents happened at home.

"Onii-chan, open the door, I have something to talk to you about."

Komachi's voice came from outside the door.

"What's the matter?"

Hikigaya Hachiman stood up and opened the door.

"Didn't you buy a lot of light novels and comics? Can you lend me a few, Onii-chan~"

Komachi pulled his sleeve and said coquettishly.

"Of course, but Komachi, are you going to evolve into a homegirl? I'm a little worried."

He felt a little strange, so he used an indirect statement.

"If I really become a dry fish girl, can Onii-chan support me in the future?"

Komachi asked instead of answering, with two big watery eyes, acting cute.

"Well, although I feel a little sad about the future like that, if it's Komachi, I'm willing to take care of her for the rest of my life."

Hikigaya Hachiman said reluctantly.

"Hehe, Onii-chan is really great... I want to give you a full score for this sentence!"

Komachi smiled happily.

"But this time I didn't do it for myself, because I met a new friend, my neighbor Liuli. I found that she has this hobby, but I couldn't afford to buy it because I was frugal, so I wanted to give it to her as a gift, but Liuli didn't want to accept it, so I could only borrow it to read."

She quickly put away her smile and changed the subject.

"Have you become friends so quickly? You are worthy of you, Komachi."

Hikigaya Hachiman showed a rather surprised expression.

My sister's affinity is too high!
