Hayakawa: "..."
Hayakawa: "No."
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
With just one "no," Ogata Rizu negated all her previous efforts, and she broke down, deciding that from now on she would never forgive Hayakawa.
……
After studying at the library, Hayakawa, along with Ogata and Furuhashi, headed towards the tram station in the fading light of dusk.
Ogata Riju sullenly lagged behind, with Furuhashi Fumino comforting her beside her, while Hayakawa walked alone at the front as if isolated by the two girls, constantly enduring the predatory gazes of the two girls behind her.
"Humph…"
Hayakawa's lips curled into a mocking smile. Loneliness again? But I'm used to it.
Being an emperor is always misunderstood. Even though he endures the loneliness of the world and suffers countless cold looks and curses, he will still stand at the forefront with his back to all living beings, resisting all the dark turmoil.
Hayakawa has come this far. He was isolated by elementary school students, by middle school students, and by two people behind him in high school. There was nothing he could do. He had become an emperor by merging with the Heavenly Heart Dao, and it was destined that no one could understand him.
so what?
Hayakawa stood in the dim light of the sky, under a sky full of dazzling stars, calmly looking at his "really easy to remember" message in the faint light of his phone.
If the world is utterly silent, and there is no light left in the world, then I will ignite myself to become the only torch, illuminating the long, dark night.
Chapter Ninety-Four: The Enigmatic Night Now Begins
Sigh... Why am I so magnificent... Even I am deeply shocked by my own magnificent image.
Hayakawa covered his slightly dizzy forehead, lost in his own worldly thoughts, so much so that he forgot to look at the words in his hand.
If there is anything in this world that can stop him from learning, it can only be a mirror that reflects his own greatness. Hayakawa will definitely stare at it all day long.
"Ugh…"
Hayakawa sighed, lamenting his unfortunate fate and the lack of companionship. Before he knew it, he arrived at the tram station, boarded the tram, and sat there for a long time. He was still staring at his reflection in the tram window, feeling sorry for himself.
"..."
Hayakawa reluctantly turned his gaze away, but when he turned his head, he saw Ogata and Furuhashi next to him and was immediately stunned: "What are you two still doing here?"
I was so engrossed in the moment that I completely forgot there were two people next to me.
Hayakawa didn't look at Ogata much, but stared at the old bridge with a puzzled expression.
After all, Ogata's house wasn't far from their own, so they both took the same train. But Furuhashi was different; she must have separated from the two of them as soon as she entered the train station.
"None of your business!"
Ogata Rizu, though small in stature, said in a sharp tone, "Can't Fumino go eat my family's udon noodles?"
"Uh…"
Hayakawa was choked by Ogata, then turned his head away and remained silent, but silently observed the two of them with a cold gaze.
Eating udon noodles? Hayakawa didn't believe that reason. If Furuhashi really wanted Ogata-style udon noodles, couldn't she just order delivery? Ogata-style udon shops have more than just her as a delivery person; she can order anytime she wants.
These two guys…
Hayakawa secretly sized up the two people with a sinister look: they probably wanted to go to that temple fair.
Huh? Die!
A light ignited in Hayakawa's eyes, and a blazing flame of youth burned around him.
The passion of youth is the passion for learning!
Eight Gates! Open!
Want to go to the temple fair? First, catch my Eight Gates Kick!
"..."
Fumino Furuhashi quietly moved away from Hayakawa, feeling that it seemed a bit hot around Hayakawa.
She pulled Ogata Riju to a place some distance away from Hayakawa to sit down, then took out her phone to check it, replied to a few messages, and whispered a few words to Ogata Riju. Hayakawa, meanwhile, pricked up her ears to eavesdrop and secretly observed them with a thief-like gaze.
……
Before long, the tram arrived at the station.
As soon as the train doors opened, Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata rushed out hand in hand as if granted a pardon, while Hayakawa followed closely behind with his head down, like a stalker.
"Hayakawa-san, what are you doing following me here?"
As Fumino Furuhashi raced along, she turned her head and pretended to be nonchalant: "Your house doesn't seem to be in this direction. Did you take the wrong road? Hurry up and head home that way. You look so anxious. Are you chasing us? Haha."
"How could that be? I just wanted to take a walk."
Hayakawa remained nonchalant, but the speed at which his legs moved was already blurry; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to keep up with Furuhashi and the other man.
"I see, that's it."
Fumino Furuhashi nodded and said, "Then, Hayakawa-kun, why are you walking so fast?"
Hayakawa smiled: "It's just to improve my speed for exercise."
Fumino Furuhashi then asked, "Then, Hayakawa-san, why have you been staring at me and Ri-chan like that?"
Hayakawa laughed again: "I just saw you guys as my destination for a night run."
"Then Hayakawa-san..."
Fumino Furuhashi nodded, a light sweat beading on her forehead, and asked breathlessly, "Why have you been reaching out to us?"
"Of course..."
Hayakawa finally revealed his evil nature, saying in a sinister tone, "So I can take you back to study."
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
In a panic, Fumino Furuhashi grabbed Ogata and ran faster into the distance, shouting, "Run, Ri-chan!"
Not far away, the brightly lit temple fair was already within reach.
"You're asking for it! Stop right there!"
Hayakawa was so angry that his face turned red. He took a few quick steps to chase after him, but he couldn't catch up no matter what he did, and soon he was panting heavily.
What's going on... When did Furuhashi and Ogata start running so fast?
"Huhuhu..."
Hayakawa watched the two women's backs as he gasped for breath, feeling his body grow heavier and heavier, and even his vision began to blur.
Suddenly I feel... a bit cold.
Hayakawa abruptly stopped, a sudden wave of dizziness washing over her. She found herself standing before the temple fair gate adorned with all sorts of bright lanterns, with Fumino Furuhashi and Riju Ogata hiding behind it, watching her cautiously.
"You two..."
Hayakawa felt a sense of relief and forced himself to take a step forward despite feeling nauseous, but then a sweet, charming shout came from behind him.
"Eh? Hayakawa-san!"
Upon hearing this, Hayakawa turned around, his pupils immediately shrinking to an extreme size.
Shadow...Master of Shadow Stream?
No, wait! They are the Nakano Five Sisters, each wearing a different colored yukata.
"..."
Hayakawa wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing five identical people at once, he thought he was seeing double.
"Ah, Hayakawa-kun."
One of the Nakanos looked delighted when she saw Hayakawa, and the black ribbon swaying merrily on her head revealed her identity.
"Ah, Hayakawa-kun, good evening."
Nakano Ichika, with her short pink hair, lit up when she saw Hayakawa. She glanced at Yotsuba and then went up to greet her.
"Good evening…"
Miku whispered a few words, then lowered her head and began to withdraw into herself.
"Good evening, Hayakawa-kun. The moon is beautiful tonight."
Nakano Satsuki smiled gently at Hayakawa, but couldn't help glancing at Nino, who was beaming beside her, with a strange expression.
"What are you doing here, Hayakawa-san?"
Nakano Yotsuba, who had initially called out to Hayakawa, widened her eyes in surprise and exclaimed, "Could it be that you're here to attend this lantern festival?"
"No,"
Hayakawa waved his hand and said, "What are you five doing here?"
"We're here to have fun,"
Nakano Yotsuba said something, and then saw Furuhashi and Ogata hiding not far away. Her eyes lit up: "Ah, we found Fumino."
As she spoke, she walked toward the ancient bridge, where the two girls huddled together, exchanging warm greetings.
"you…"
Hayakawa looked at the two women with a puzzled expression.
"Don't you know, Hayakawa-kun?"
Seeing this, Ichika leaned over to explain, "Furuhashi and Yotsuba had planned to come to the lantern festival together, so a few of us came along. Didn't you come with Furuhashi? What are you doing here?"
"what?!"
Hayakawa suddenly realized, and then instantly flew into a rage. No wonder Furuhashi was so interested in this temple fair; it turned out it was pre-arranged!
Chapter Ninety-Five: Teacher, please teach me how to shoot!
"Ok!"
A ferocious look flashed across Hayakawa's face as he looked towards the two girls, only to find that Furuhashi and Ogata had secretly slipped into the crowd at the temple fair with Yotsuba. He immediately shouted angrily, "Hey! You two!"
"Well…"
Furuhashi and Ogata shuddered, glancing at Hayakawa in alarm before hurriedly pulling Yotsuba into the crowded throng: "Run! Run!"
In the blink of an eye, the two girls and Yotsuba disappeared into the bustling crowds at the temple fair.
"You guys... Waaaaaah!"
Hayakawa's eyes were bloodshot with anger, and he was speechless. He looked around at the road beside him, seemingly looking for a suitable javelin or something, but he couldn't find it. So, with a dark expression, he said to May, "I'm going in first."
After saying that, he angrily headed in the direction where Gu Qiao and the others had disappeared.
Trying to run away? Dream on!
You two better not let me catch you, or you'll be in big trouble.
"Eh?"
Nakano Nino's beautiful eyes widened as she saw Hayakawa suddenly enter the temple fair, and she instinctively followed, saying, "Wait a minute, Hayakawa-kun, let's go together..."
"Let's go in too."
Nakakuno Ichika, who was standing next to Hayakawa, saw Hayakawa heading towards Yotsuba and her eyes lit up. She noticed that Nino was about to follow, but she immediately realized what was happening. With a slight turn of her beautiful eyes, she took advantage of the moment when Hayakawa entered the crowd and suddenly reached out to take Nino's arm, intentionally or unintentionally leading her off the road: "The fireworks festival is about to begin."
"Eh?"
Nino felt a gentle tug, but then she could no longer find Hayakawa, and she froze in shock.
"One flower!"
Nino glared at Ichika with fiery eyes, while Ichika turned to look at the food stall on the other side: "May, that grilled octopus looks delicious."
"Eh?"
