"You've got all the restaurant desserts, thank you!"

Kominami Aizami feigned shyness, her face slightly flushed as she looked at Hayakawa: "Junior, siki~"

"Pfft...cough cough,"

Umaru was drinking water when she heard Minami's words and almost spat it out. She coughed twice, then looked at Minami Aizumi in disbelief: "Senpai, you...you?"

"Are you going to eat or not?"

Hayakawa looked at the mischievous grin on Minami Aizawa's face and knew that she was deliberately saying such things in front of Umaru to tease him. His face immediately turned as black as coal, and he said in a deep voice, "If you don't want to eat it, I'll take it away."

"eat."

Xiao Meilang immediately became obedient and started eating with her head down, while Xiao Mai looked at her strangely for a long time before slowly lowering her head to eat as well.

……

After finishing their meal, Ayame and Umaru lay on the sofa, rubbing their stomachs and stretching, looking like they were completely useless. Hayakawa felt annoyed by their decadent state and quickly took the bowls and chopsticks back to the kitchen.

He put the dishes into the dishwasher, pressed the button, and the sound of water running filled the air. Soon the dishes were washed, and Hayakawa opened the door and put them back one by one.

Suddenly, the sound of a door opening came from the side. Hayakawa turned his head and saw Umaru standing there prettily.

She said, "Hayakawa."

"Ah."

Hayakawa responded and mechanically repeated the action of putting the bowl back on the shelf, his expression as wooden and blank as ever, showing no sign of his heart racing despite being in the same room with the beautiful girl.

"Senior Meilang just confessed to you,"

Umaru was silent for a moment, then said nonchalantly, "Didn't you hear me?"

"You didn't actually believe her, did you? She was just saying it casually,"

Hayakawa paused in his hand, then said without looking up, "That girl wasn't serious at all; she was just trying to tease me."

"That's true,"

Upon hearing this, Umaru nodded repeatedly: "Senior is usually like this too, his words are very unreliable."

"Ah."

Hayakawa finished clearing away the dishes, turned to look at Umaru with a frown, and said coldly, "Alright, you've eaten and rested enough, it's time to go home."

Doma Umaru's face fell: "Seriously? Are you just kicking people out like this?"

"There's nothing you'll be doing here. I need to study."

Hayakawa remained expressionless, then asked, "Are you going to learn too?"

"I won't."

Upon hearing this, Xiaomai immediately turned her head away and said nonchalantly, "Speaking of which, my brother will probably be back soon, and I should probably go back too. Otherwise, he will definitely worry when he comes back, since it's not appropriate for a girl like me to stay in a boy's house for too long."

Why didn't you have so many excuses when we were eating?

Hayakawa looked at him with disdain: "Get out of here right now."

"Okay, okay,"

Umaru puffed out her pink cheeks and muttered a couple of complaints. Then, Mimi and Hayakawa saw her off at the door. Just as they were saying goodbye, Umaru suddenly remembered something and said to Hayakawa, "By the way, Hayakawa, you're going to another city for the holidays. You probably won't be taking your computer with you, right?"

Hayakawa hesitated for a moment, then decisively said, "I definitely won't bring it."

He's a bit old-fashioned; he doesn't have any games or entertainment apps on his phone, and he doesn't chat much. He uses it more as a dictionary and watch than for entertainment, living the lifestyle of a sixty or seventy-year-old who can't keep up with the times. However, he's quite good with computers because he often searches for practice questions online. But when he's not studying, his computer is just for show, and lately it's been gathering dust.

This trip to Hokkaido, ostensibly a vacation, was actually a form of spiritual practice! And what is spiritual practice? It is abandoning all external things and distracting thoughts, immersing oneself naked in the wilderness, becoming one with nature, and then…

In short, Hayakawa definitely wouldn't bring a computer, as it's an electronic device and doesn't align with his training. If it weren't for the fact that his phone is so useful, he would have smashed it and left it behind.

That's perfect,"

Upon hearing this, Umaru exchanged a glance with Mimi and Ayame, then shamelessly asked, "Since you're not bringing your computer, could you lend it to me and my senior during the holiday?"

"Huh? Why?"

Upon hearing this, Hayakawa immediately frowned. His first instinct was to refuse, because he felt that these two people couldn't possibly be up to anything by lending him their computer.

"Anyway, you don't bring it with you, and the computer just sits at home collecting dust."

Komi Nami looked up at Hayakawa and said matter-of-factly, "What's wrong with lending it to us?"

Chapter 249 The Trip Begins

"Why should I lend you my computer just because I didn't bring it?"

Hayakawa looked displeased: "Besides, don't you two have your own computers? Go use your own."

"I don't have a computer. My computer is at that small clinic's house, and I can't get it back home now, so I definitely can't get it out."

Upon hearing this, Ayame Komi rebuked Hayakawa: "Don't talk nonsense."

"Uh…"

Hayakawa was a little embarrassed, so he pointed to Umaru and said, "What about her? She must have one, right?"

"My computer recently ran out of memory, and games are becoming very laggy."

Without hesitation, Xiaomai replied, "Besides, there are new games released recently that I can't download, so I wanted to use your computer to play them."

"Oh, you were playing video games."

Hayakawa said expressionlessly, "I regret to inform you that I refuse."

"you…"

Umaru's pretty face flushed red with anger. At that moment, she remembered the natural, helpless, and disgusted expression on her brother Doma Taihei's face when he saw her playing games. Although it was different from Hayakawa's expression at this moment, the meaning was exactly the same.

This society is full of discrimination against games. It's infuriating and disheartening. Can we gamers ever have a better life?

"Hmm,"

Hayakawa sneered, "Instead of studying during the holidays, you borrow the computer to play games, do you expect me to..."

Just as Hayakawa was about to launch into his familiar long-winded speech, and Umaru's face grew increasingly red with anger, the atmosphere between the two became more and more tense. Mimi Aizawa quickly stepped in to mediate.

She shielded Umaru behind her, gave her a reassuring look, and then smiled sweetly: "Don't say that, junior. The holiday is so long, we didn't just play games, we definitely made up for our studies too."

Hayakawa frowned slightly, somewhat disbelievingly saying, "I don't think you guys are good at studying."

"Really? Don't you find study guides online yourself? Surely we do too?"

Xiao Meilang jumped to Hayakawa's side and said in a cute and innocent way, "As for me, I'm about to take the college entrance exam, so I can't relax even during the holidays."

"..."

Hayakawa recalled how Mimi Aizami lacked confidence in her college entrance exams, and her indifferent gaze softened slightly.

"As for Umaru-chan,"

Aimi glanced at Umaru and said matter-of-factly, "She wants to learn too."

"she?"

Hayakawa immediately put on a poker face and pointed at her, saying, "She just said she wasn't going to study when she got back."

Xiao Meilang was silent for a moment, then her eyes flashed, and she leaned over Hayakawa's head and whispered in his ear, "Xiao Mei wasn't focused on studying before, but recently she's seen how hard you've been studying, so she felt a sense of crisis and that's why she's rushing to catch up on her studies during the holidays."

Sense of crisis!

Upon hearing this, Hayakawa felt a surge of warmth in her heart; she had made him feel a sense of crisis…

My efforts finally paid off. Even the most formidable enemy could only retreat in fear in the face of my iron will.

Hayakawa silently looked up, her eyes gradually welling up with tears.

Seeing Hayakawa's strange reaction, Kominami Aizami couldn't help but ask, "Uh? Junior?"

"fine."

Hayakawa immediately resumed his poker face, paused for a moment, and then said, "Okay."

"Hey, you agreed right away?"

Xiao Meilang was stunned, not expecting her words to be so effective.

Hayakawa nodded, and said succinctly, "Mm."

"Okay~"

Upon hearing this, Doma Umaru's eyes lit up, and she reached out to pat Mimi Aizawa, and the two high-fived in celebration.

"It's my password, you can use it freely, but I just wanted to mention..."

Seeing the two of them opening champagne, Hayakawa immediately coughed lightly and said seriously, "Playing games or looking up information is fine, but don't download any weird software, otherwise you'll get a virus and your computer won't work."

"Young man, you seem like an old man!"

Xiao Meilang Aicheng smiled and said, "Don't you know me? I definitely won't download those apps, so don't worry."

Hayakawa thought to himself that he was worried because he knew how unreliable Umaru was, but he was too lazy to say anything more. He just waved his hand and sent Umaru home. Minami Aisumi stayed behind and studied with Hayakawa until late before going home by herself.

Silent all night.

……

It was another morning. Hayakawa packed his luggage, looked at his phone, and took the train towards Fumino Furuhashi's house.

Today is the day they set off on their trip. Hayakawa plans to pick up Fumino from Furuhashi's house first, then pick up Rizu Ogata, and then the three of them will go to the airport together.

Because Ogata Rizu had a lot of luggage, it would be too troublesome to take the train with it, so we picked up Furuhashi first, then Ogata, and then took a taxi directly to the airport.

Before long, Hayakawa arrived near Furuhashi's house according to the map she had given him. As she walked along the street, Hayakawa saw a metal sign on a wall with the words "Furuhashi" engraved on it, and realized that this was Furuhashi's house.

Looking up, a three-story Western-style luxury villa appeared in front of Hayakawa, with a separate yard and a closed iron gate. To own such a house in the center of the city, it was clear that the owner of this house was quite well-off.

Hayakawa sent a message and waited silently at the door. Before long, Furuhashi, dragging several suitcases, came out with difficulty, panting heavily.

"Yo~"

Hayakawa greeted her calmly, but his gaze fell on her luggage, and his face immediately darkened.

Ogata said he had a lot of luggage, but you have quite a lot of luggage too. You didn't say you had a lot of luggage, so how much must Ogata have brought?

"..."

Hayakawa frowned as he looked at his luggage, thinking that with so many suitcases, it would be difficult for him to find any literature textbooks or world classics hidden inside.

"Why are you here?"

Fumino Furuhashi was startled by Hayakawa's greeting. She quickly pulled her suitcase out of the iron gate and squeezed Hayakawa behind the wall. She whispered nervously, "I didn't mean for you to wait for me somewhere far away. What if my father finds out?!"

"...You were the one who asked me to pick you up,"

Hayakawa remained silent for a long time before speaking in a flat tone: "I was just standing at the door, why are you describing it as if I were having an affair?"

"Who's having an affair with you?!"

Fumino Furuhashi gritted her teeth in shame and indignation. She put the suitcase in his hand and pulled him away from the villa before letting out a sigh of relief and saying, "I told my father that I was just going out to play with Ri-chan for a few days and I didn't mention you."

"You're not telling the truth again,"

Hayakawa nodded and said, "That's really wicked."

"You're so annoying, Hayakawa-kun!"

Gu Qiao stared blankly at Gu Qiao and muttered a complaint, then sighed softly, "There's nothing I can do. If my father knew that a boy like you was around, he would definitely not agree to me going on a long trip."

What did we guys do to you?

Hayakawa muttered a curt comment without any expression, then pulled his suitcase away, saying, "Alright, let's hurry up and go."

Chapter 250 Hayakawa’s Home

"Wait a moment,"

Seeing this, Gu Qiao quickly pulled her suitcase and followed behind him, saying, "You have big strides, don't walk so fast."

"Your house is quite big."

Hayakawa glanced at Furuhashi following behind him, a slight smile playing on his lips: "No wonder the boys in our class all say you're from a rich family."

"do not talk…"
