I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo Chapter 393: New Member 4

Chapter 393: New Member 4

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o looked at Yukinos.h.i.+ta for a moment, who looked away with her usual cold expression. It had been a while since he saw that expression, and without a doubt, he knew who was the cause of this cold expression.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o then looked at the new member, whose name was Hikigaya Hachiman.

While s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o was in this school, he often saw Hikigaya, but frankly, he thought that this guy would be just a background character in his life, so he had never paid attention. He looked into Hikigaya's eyes and nodded politely while thinking that this guy's eyes were really similar to dead fish.

However, when Hikigaya noticed his gaze, he subconsciously lowered his head and showed a forced smile.

"..."

"...Senpai, has someone said your smile is horrible? If we're on Halloween, without a doubt, they'll think that you dress up as a zombie now," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said with a smile.

"..."

His smile was so bright and warm that it was that no one would think such cruel words would come from his mouth.

Hikigaya was left speechless, and he was unable to say anything.

Yukinos.h.i.+ta tried to hide her laugh by hiding her face with a book.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o naturally sat next to Yukinos.h.i.+ta as he looked at Hikigaya. "Sorry for being rude about our first meeting. My name is s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o Oga. What about you, Senpai?"

"My - My name is Hikigaya Hachiman." Hikigaya was slightly strange by how polite s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o was, considering how rude this guy was before. Frankly, he was also curious about s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o since he was the famous sc.u.mbag in the first year. While he hated to admit it, he must admit that this guy was so handsome.

Even if Hikigaya told someone, he swung that way because of s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o. He could feel that everyone would understand him.

"While we, the Service Club, have been tasked by Hiratsuka-sensei to lead you out from your twisted life. I don't really understand you well, so I'll refrain from making an impolite remark, Senpai," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said.

"...You have been saying something rude about me, you know?" Hikigaya gritted his teeth and wanted to beat someone up now. However, when he saw s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's slender yet powerful body, he decided to become a pacifist since it was his dream to lead world peace.

"As for the cute and rude girl behind me, do you know her?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked.

"I think the rude part is unnecessary, s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o-kun," Yukinos.h.i.+ta said flatly.

"So the cute part is okay?" 2x

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o and Hikigaya said at the same time, which caused the two of them to look at each other.

Hikigaya blushed and felt embarra.s.sed somehow.

"So why did you two suddenly get into an argument?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked.

"....."

The two were in silence, and neither of them said anything.

"Senpai..." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o looked at Yukinos.h.i.+ta with an abandoned puppy-like expression.

Yukinos.h.i.+ta let out a long sigh and said, "This guy is too rotten, so I told him to change, but he didn't want to. I think that he'll be in trouble in his social life if he doesn't change. He doesn't even know that he has a problem."

"Don't give me that c.r.a.p." Hikigaya, who rarely talked, looked away with an uncomfortable expression as he expressed himself. "Like h.e.l.l, I need to change. I don't need people telling me who I should be, d.a.m.n it." His eyes kept wandering around as he folded his arms, showing that he had made up his mind that he wouldn't change his mind no matter what.

Hikigaya might be surrounded by the two most famous students in this school, but even so, he wouldn't back down. He might be a loner, and he might be twisted, but he still had pride in his personality.

"That's just running away," Yukinos.h.i.+ta said with a frown.

"But isn't changing myself also running away?" Hikigaya said proudly. "Why can't you accept who you were and who you are?"

Yukinos.h.i.+ta clenched her fist and wanted to lash out, but her hand was patted by s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o.

"Calm down, Senpai," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said gently.

Yukinos.h.i.+ta looked at s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o for a moment before she ignored Hikigaya.

"..." Hikigaya looked at s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o and thought that this guy was too amazing, right?

While some people were blind, s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's actions couldn't escape his eyes. Hikigaya was sure that s.h.i.+sho was using him as a means to conquer Yukiinos.h.i.+ta, which made him speechless.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o then looked at Hikigaya and said, "Senpai, you must be unpopular with girls, right?"

"Ugh!" Hikagaya felt an arrow stabbing his chest and felt he had died once. However, he quickly revived and glared at s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o. He growled and asked, "Ju-Just, what do you want to say? Do you agree with that woman too?"

"No, this time, I agree with you," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said as he shook his head.

"Eh?" 2x

Hikigaya and Yukinos.h.i.+ta were dumbfounded.

"Even if Yukino-senpai is cute, I must agree that she's a bit too much before," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said.

"Why?" Yukinos.h.i.+ta asked with a frown.

"I mean, while you're a beauty, you're practically a stranger to him. Let's imagine, if a stranger that you don't know suddenly comes and tells you that your life is s.h.i.+t, you need to change. What'll you answer? Of course, you'll refuse him, right? I mean, who the h.e.l.l are you? Why should you tell me to change or not?"

"Yes!" Hikigaya nodded and felt happy that someone could understand him.

"But..." Yukinos.h.i.+ta wanted to say something, but s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o stopped her for a moment and said, "But, while I say this, I don't mean that I agree with Hikigaya-senpai's way of life."

"...." Hikigaya.

"However, Hiratsuka-sensei gave us a task to reform you, so you won't be a pitiful loner anymore."

"...." Hikigaya wondered whether there weren't any filters on s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's mouth since this cheeky junior kept saying something rude to one after another.

"Senpai, you don't want to change, right?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked.

"Yes." Hikigaya nodded without hesitation.

While Hikigaya didn't realize, he had started to feel comfortable talking with s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o, and he didn't feel afraid of expressing his opinion to a Riajuu guy like s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o.

"However, are you satisfied with your youth to end like this? High school is only three years, and you only have two years left. After that, you'll become a university student. By then, you'll become a corporate slave at the black company..."

"Why should I become a corporate slave at the black company?!" Hikigaya refuted s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's words.

"Um... You're not?"

"Of course not!"

"Then what do you want to become?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked curiously.

"I plan to become a household husband and let my wife support me," Hikigaya said proudly.

"...."

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o and Yukinos.h.i.+ta looked at each other and rubbed their temples.

"Before you can have a wife, you need to get a girlfriend. So the question is, can you get a girlfriend?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked frankly.

"...You know to poke where it hurts the most." Hikigaya wondered whether this place was a fighting ring since he had been beaten up from the moment he entered.

"How about this! Let's change our objection," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o suddenly said.

"Objection?" 2x

"I mean, we have been focussing on how to change you. However, you don't want to change, and you don't think that it is unnecessary for you to change, right?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked as he stared at Hikigaya.

"Yes." Hikigaya nodded.

"So let's change our objective to help you achieve your goal," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said.

"My goal?" Hikigaya was dumbfounded.

"Yes." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o nodded and said, "World domination? Immortality? Or defeating an alien that might destroy the earth?"

"...no, I don't have such a grand ambition in my mind." Higikigaya was lost for words since he didn't expect the famous sc.u.mbag would be a Chuunibyou.

"How about 100 friends? If you want, it should be possible," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said.

"...no, I don't need that many."

"By the way, do you have friends?"

"...No." Hikigaya lowered his head before he barked, "What the h.e.l.l is this?! Did you have fun making fun of your senior?! Can you show some respect to me?"

"Senpai, if you let me be frank, even a grade-schooler will dare to bully, you know?"

"...Am I such a weak character?!"

While Yukinos.h.i.+ta didn't say anything, she had been trying to hold her laugh.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o let out a tired sigh and said, "You really hard to please, aren't you?"

"...." Hikigaya.

"Well, this is my last weapon. I'm sure that no high school boy will resist this temptation," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said softly.

Hikigaya frowned and showed an expression that he didn't think that anything that came out from s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's mouth could tempt him.

"How about a girlfriend?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked.

"Eh?" Hikigaya opened his eyes wide as his breathing became more arduous.

While it might sound exaggerated, without a doubt, s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's temptation was working, and Hikigaya was excited.

"Oh? You don't like to have a girlfriend, Hikigaya-senpai? You want a boyfriend?"

"Who the h.e.l.l wants a boyfriend?!" Hikigaya refuted with a loud voice. It might be the biggest voice that he had ever said in his entire life.

"Senpai, we're living in the 21st century. People are more tolerant than in the past," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said simply.

"I mean, I'm not a h.o.m.o, dammit!"

"So you're alright with a girlfriend?"

*Gulp!*

Hikigaya looked at s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o with a mix of doubt and excitement. However, the ratio of excitement was around seven, and doubt was three. If it was someone else, he wouldn't show such a reaction, but the one who told this was s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o, who was known as the famous sc.u.mbag, who had dated many beautiful girls at the same time.

While Hikigaya felt reluctant, he felt that it wasn't bad to stay in this club somehow.

"s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o-kun, I don't think it is good for you to promise something impossible," Yukinos.h.i.+ta said in a whisper, but in a voice that could be heard by Hikigaya.

"....." Hikigaya.

"If it's someone else, I think that they'll say it is impossible for him. However, you know my ident.i.ty, right?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said as he patted his chest.

"...."

Hikigaya and Yukinos.h.i.+ta had to admit that his words were more believable than Riajuu, who had a girlfriend in the school.

"While his personality is twisted, he's a loner, and his eyes are dead."

"Oi!"

Even Buddha could get angry, Hikigaya could also get angry too!

"However, his face isn't that bad," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said truthfully. While Hikigaya's dead eyes were turned off as long as Hikigaya could get rid of those eyes, he was sure that many girls might notice him. Though, it might be hard since Hikigaya needed to erase his status as a loner first and stop talking depressingly.

"..." Hikigaya.

"So, Hikigaya-senpai, while I'm not sure whether you can get a girlfriend in this high school or not..."

"That's different from what you have said before!"

However, s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o ignored Hikigaya's refutation and said, "However, why don't you try to join this club? Just think that you're being tricked, so you can add some little spices to your gray-colored high school life. While I'm not sure whether you can have a rose-colored high school life, why don't you add other colors in your soph.o.m.ore time?"

"Rose-colored high school life..." Hikigaya muttered in a low voice.

"Also, it isn't like you have a choice either since if you try to escape, s.h.i.+zu --, I mean, Hiratsuka-sensei is going to catch you and beat you up to enter," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said.

'Is this guy going to call Hiratsuka-sensei by her first name?' 2x

Hikigaya and Yukinos.h.i.+ta stared at s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o with a twitch in the corner of their eyes.

However, Hikigaya fell into silence.

Hikigaya knew that he didn't have a choice, and while he must admit that he hated a popular guy like s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o since this guy had everything, he felt that it was fun to talk with him since this guy didn't have a filter on his mouth and everything that s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said was a truth that came out from his mind.

While Hikigaya sounded angry, he didn't really feel angry, and it might be embarra.s.sing for him to admit it. He had fun here. "...Take care of me."

"What? What did you say?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked loudly.

"I mean, take care of me, dammit!"

"Sorry, I don't want to."

"...." Hikigaya.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o smiled and said, "I was joking, of course. Please take care of me too, Senpai."

"...Me too." Hikigaya looked away, showing a tsundere reaction.

"While a tsundere girl is cute, a tsundere boy is disgusting, you know?"

"...."

Hikigaya let out a long tired sigh and really wanted to beat someone right now..
