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

Chapter 67



Lunch in the cafeteria, but the food is not obtained there, people need to go visit the shopping street for it.
  
But Sakayanagi is quite an active person. The spicy wing tart set was already there, when Hachiman arrived.

Only, his eyes glanced at the girl with long purple hair and a hairpin, she was sitting on the side, eating alone.... in a very bad mood.

'Kamuro-san was probably arranged to buy this lunch in advance!' And now, a tissue was taken out for wiping the
sweat from her forehead, while she took another bite.

'Was she run over like this? It's really hard work....' However, although he feels a little sorry for Kamuro-san, the tender meat of the fried wings tastes great.

"Hikigaya-kun likes this kind of fried food very much!” A cute voice came from beside the boy, who was eating his lunch quietly, while looking at Kamuro-san in pity.

This voice belongs to a very cute girl with straight silver hair.
  
Sakayanagi Arisu.

Because of poor health, she needs to carry a cane with her, But in Hachiman's mind, the opponent's attack power is very strong.

"....Sakayanagi, do you want some?"
Kamuro-san brought a fin bucket, it was more than enough to share. 

"You don't have to." But this girl, with a petite body just waved her hand gently, "Things that are too spicy and fried are not good for the skin!” Sakayanagi said, while looking at the boy who was eating her food with no intention of sharing the bill.

“....” Hachiman. He was just about to bite another mouthful, but.....after listening to those words, he also looked at her hands subconsciously.

Indeed. She is very white. 'Just like an exquisite doll....'
  
"Actually, it's okay to taste it occasionally." Even though Hachiman felt, his eating habits were just insulted, he still tried to make her think otherwise, "Look, it smells good!”

"It's indeed tempting." But Sakayanagi just kept smiling, and stared at the two more pieces on his plate.

Only her guests, couldn't understand the meaning of that uncanny look in her eyes. 'She obviously didn't want to eat this. Besides, people with good skin are naturally beautiful, and they also have to take care of it....'
  
And Hachiman also knows that even some boys use facial cleansers and masks...

"So..." She just took a sip of her coke instead, and looked at Hachiman's face again, instead of focusing on his plate like before, “First of all, congratulations on your good results in this special exam.”

"However, I didn't give you the permission for sharing my test paper to Class B, right?" Sakayanagi has now joined both of her hands together, and stared at him with zero gaze.
  
"This..." It made Hachiman a little stuck, now.

Because it was indeed Sakayanagi who produced the paper....not only was it given to Class C for free, but he also shared it with B, their direct enemy.

Now, Hachiman is suspected of funding their opponent.
 
"It was to suppress Vice President Nagumo” It would be much better to just throw this guys name instead. Because, Hachiman really didn't know how to get out of this torture, "He secretly contacted Ichinose's Class B and wanted to present them a favour as a show of goodwill."

“As for the target, it's probably the votes of Class B!" After saying this, he just stopped, and picked up another wing to bite. Hachiman didn't want to deal with this matter.

"That's right." But Sakayanagi agreed with his opinion, it's a feasible reason for that betrayal, “Well, Hikigaya-kun, you have really done something troublesome..... because if Nagumo-senpai really did this,” She paused her wordings there, and let the atmosphere built around her.

Both, Hachiman and Kamuro-san were now looking at her in anticipation, eyes full of curiosity.....this made our cute little Arisu feel good, and she opened her mouth in a grand manner, “Then, I can report him for leaking the test papers and take his identity as the Vice president of the student council!”
  
'Then, you are terrible!'
  
What Hachiman was thinking about, is that after reaching this point, the school would not change the papers again.

'Because, this will trouble most of the students.....' 'But Sakayanagi just flipped the table, again? Is the attack power so strong?!'
  

"Even if you did this terrible crime, Nagumo-senpai is still the booty-licker of the entire 2nd grade....So, this normal method.... It's mine!" Only, Hachiman's tone slightly became louder at the end, when he saw Kamuro-san.... trying to steal his last chicken wing away.
  
Only, Sakayanagi as the bigger person, and Kamuro-san's owner, she chose to ignore her pet's crazy actions, and thought about what Hachiman meant to say.
  
'In other words, it would be useless even if I caught evidence of Nagumo-senpai being a whistle blower, because he is the ass-licker of the 2nd grade..... can push out a few people to take the blame!'

Therefore, if Sakayanagi wants to attack Nagumo, it will have no effect.
  
And, that's why, Hikigaya-kun just continued eating his egg tarts....now that his chicken's leg was thrown into Kamuro-san's belly.
  
"Speaking of this” But Sakayanagi was still not satisfied, and changed the topic in another direction...or it can be said, this was the main dish, “Hikigaya-kun had dinner with Class B's Ichinose-san, because you had to deal with Nagumo-senpai's matter?"

“Of course” But, Hachiman didn't pay attention, his eyes were gazing back and forth between that plate and Kamuro-san. On high alert, for any strange movements.

“Grr.....
  
"That's it." Sakayanagi wasn't impressed with this non-caring behaviour, and looked at both of them with cold eyes, "So do you remember this sentence?"
 
“I've liked you for a long time, can you date me?"

“I'm really serious about this Ichinose.....I have even thought about the name of the child!”

“For the boy, it's Kazuya and for the girl, how about Chizuru?”

“Hikigaya-kun, do you have any impression of these wor-

"Ahem——" This had already made Hachiman, choke on his drink violently, and he quickly gulped the whole cup down his throat.

Afraid of spitting it out on Sakayanagi's face.
  
"No..." After that, he quickly looked at Sakayanagi, with his mouth moving rapidly, "Why did you suddenly say that?!"

In fact, when she asked this, Hachiman already knew that the situation was bad. 'Because, weren't these the exact words I used, during my confession to Ichinose?!'

In other words... the confession was revealed.
  
Hey Hey hey! 'So, is this, the reason why the girls looked at me differently in the morning?!'

It seems that Hikigaya Hachiman declared his love for Archangel Ichinose from Class B of the 1st grade, and outcome... he was rejected.

'But, I didn't tell anyone, and even though Ichinose's body looked quite a handful to deal with, she wouldn't do such a thing.....so, what about that lesbian?!'
  
Probably not, her character seemed so timid.

She already witnessed, Hachiman confessing his love to Ichinose and then realised the fact.... about her love denying everyone, and must have felt depressed after that.
  
'So...were there any other witnesses at that time?'
  
"..." Hachiman. "I need your help, Author-san?!' Just say the truth, my boy. 'Understood!'
  
"I did confess my love to Ichinose," After gaining some new advice to solve this dilemma, Hachiman decided to open his mouth, and laid out the bare facts.
  
Boom!
  
But at this time, the sound of chopsticks falling on the table was particularly obvious.

“.....” X2
  
Hachiman and Sakayanagi, both of them looked over at the girl with purple hair, who had already taken advantage of this spot, and hid the last egg tart.
  
“....” Kamuro-san.
  
She picked up her chopsticks with her right hand and wiped them, but those people were still staring at her.

Tsk! She clicked her tongue in disgust, and opened her left palm, which revealed.......It was Hachiman's missing tart.

The boy in question, looked at his plate with eyes full of confusion.....only, it was vacant, and now a girl's soft hand, came over to put the missing item back.

'Ugh! Is it that shocking?...If it wasn't for those chopsticks....I could have gotten away with it!' But this can't hide the fact, about Kamuro-san's eavesdropping on their conversation which only resulted in her loss.....
 
“.....” Sakayanagi.

“.....” Hachiman. 'Not only was my food being stolen this whole time, but these girls really think.....my confession isn't common just like other boys?...'
  
'Or is it weird that I admitted it?'
  
"But that was just a farce," Even though, his mood was a little complicated inside, Hachiman still chose to follow that advice, and spoke the whole truth, "Ichinose is a gentle person.... Someone was going to confess, but she didn't want that person to get hurt, and asked me for help."
  
"In other words, did Hikigaya-kun make the decision to sacrifice himself, and make that person quit,” But as the noble eldest lady, Sakayanagi was still quite calm, and analysed the whole matter without those bias rumours. "Then, you are really a kind person....”
  
Only, Hachiman doesn't think this is a good comment. 'But Sakayanagi, even though you're a real genius, and have so much wisdom, this time you really made a mistake....'

'I have never been a kind person in my entire life, and don't have any intention of being one......'

Even though, Hachiman had started going on about those self-hatred thoughts, Sakayanagi chose to add a little more fuel, "But, I'm a little curious."

"You can make such decisions at critical times like that....and, you're very good at talking about those feelings.....So, Hikigaya-kun, have you ever confessed to someone before and then failed?"

"Because, I don't think it was your first time, which really makes me a little bit tempted....And you casually gave away that paper to Class B, it makes me very unhappy...tsk-tsk” This leader of Class A, named, Sakayanagi Arisu, was now grinding her teeth as if showing her irritation, but then she looked at Hachiman, (her prey) with her one eye closed, “If you told me about your dark history, I'll consider us even!”

Then, she gave him a wink, using her other eye.....So, cute!

Only, 'In other words, does she want to hear about my failed relationship experience and then feel happy inside?!'

Bah! Are you a devil?
