Even with chuunibyou, let's learn together!

However, Ichika's sudden desire to study is a good thing for Hayakawa. Yotsuba clearly wanted all five sisters to go to high school together, and now that Ichika is taking the initiative to study, it saves a lot of trouble.

From the moment she met Furuhashi and Ogata, Hayakawa realized that she actually had a talent for teaching. Those two were people that many teachers in the school had tried to teach but failed to understand. With her, their grades improved dramatically, or at least their progress was visible to the naked eye.

With this experience, Hayakawa gained some experience and confidence in teaching others, and even with the addition of the Nakano sisters, he believed he could do it.

"These are for you."

Hayakawa sent some basic information he had prepared for Yotsuba on his phone to Ichika, and instructed her, "I'm going to take a shower. Keep an eye on things for me. If you don't understand anything, ask Yotsuba first. Ask me again when I'm done showering."

"Oh, alright."

Ichika nodded repeatedly, then stared in disbelief at the huge pile of documents on her phone. She hadn't expected Hayakawa to be so serious when teaching, making documents and creating her own questions, even more so than a regular tutor.

Hayakawa got up and walked towards the bathroom, saying, "Don't slack off. Perseverance in learning is more important than other qualities."

"Do not worry."

Ichika puffed out her chest and patted it twice, declaring confidently, "I will definitely persevere."

……

after an hour.

“No…”

"I can't hold on any longer..."

The small hotel room was filled with the girl's pitiful wails, her voice so painful it sounded as if she were being subjected to one of the Ten Great Tortures of the Qing Dynasty. If anyone outside could hear this, they would probably call the police.

"..."

Hayakawa's face darkened: "Stop yelling! You've only held out for a short while, and you're already like this?!"

She's been yelling since she came out of the shower. Did she actually study seriously for half an hour in total?

"I really can't take it anymore, my head hurts so much..."

Ichika lay on the bed, unwilling to get up. Her slender, snow-white legs slumped down as if they were cramping. After hearing Hayakawa's words, she looked up with a pitiful expression and said aggrievedly, "It's already packed full inside. Even if I try harder, it won't go any further."

"Not only is your academic level at an elementary school level, but are you even an elementary school student yourself?!"

Hayakawa was so angry that his chest hurt: "And don't say anything nonsensical, or people will misunderstand."

Yotsuba couldn't help but advise from the side, "Ichika, be a little more patient, or you could read a book first."

"It's really no use..."

Upon hearing this, Yihua lay on the bed again, unwilling to get up, tossing and turning like a child, making the bed full of wrinkles: "It's too boring, so everyone at school usually does these kinds of problems? Everyone is too persistent."

"this…"

Yotsuba looked at Hayakawa for help and whispered, "Hayakawa-kun, look, it's getting late, and we've been studying for a long time. Why don't you get some rest?"

They can't even study for an hour before going to sleep. I really don't know how they can fall asleep.

Hayakawa sighed with a gloomy face: "Fine, let's turn off the lights and go to sleep."

"Good!"

Ichika, who had been lying on the bed like a dead fish, immediately sat up and cheered upon hearing this, her wide eyes revealing a clear sense of foolishness.

"..."

At that moment, looking at Ichika who was like an unruly child, he inexplicably thought of Furuhashi and Ogata.

When I was teaching them, they were like that too. They were noisy and unwilling to study. Doing one more problem or listening to a lesson for a little longer seemed like a death sentence to them. But they got better and better later on.

It's already much better now. Even if Hayakawa doesn't interfere, they'll discipline themselves to study and keep up with the pace.

At that moment, Hayakawa had a sudden realization: probably most students in the world start out like this, and only gradually improve later.

So don't give up on them. Keep hope in your heart, teach them patiently, and wait patiently. One day they will grow.

"Then you two go to bed."

Thinking about this, Hayakawa calmed down a bit, then grabbed his pillow and blanket and walked towards the sofa: "I'll sleep on the sofa."

"Wait."

Yotsuba stopped him, saying seriously, "Hayakawa-kun, you should sleep in the bed."

"what?"

Hayakawa was taken aback: "What do you mean? Where will you sleep then?"

"Yihua sleeps on the sofa."

Four-leaf clover path.

"how about you?"

Hayakawa's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Yotsuba with his pupils slightly contracted, a thought popping into his mind.

Does that mean he wants to sleep with me?

That's unlikely. She asked me to cover it up before, and suddenly she wants to share a bed with me in front of Ichika. This is a bit abnormal.

Hayakawa frowned, his expression blank, but a hint of anticipation welled up inside him.

However, Yotsuba's words shattered his illusions.

"I'll sleep on the floor."

Four-leaf clover is a matter of course.

"..."

What does this mean? These two would rather one sleep on the bed and the other on the floor than give up the right to sleep on the bed. It's understandable that Yotsuba is an angel, but why doesn't Ichika do the same?

Could it be that at some point my personal charm captivated her, turning her into a slave who obeyed my every word?

Hayakawa was a little puzzled, but still refused without hesitation: "No need, you guys sleep in the bed, I'll sleep on the sofa."

Chapter 469 Finding Her

As Hayakawa spoke, he walked toward the sofa without hesitation.

He has no habit of bullying girls, nor does he want to cause trouble for others, so even if he is not feeling well, he will not go to bed.

What's more, this isn't just anyone, it's Yotsuba and her sister. They just confirmed their relationship yesterday and were all lovey-dovey, and today she's saying, "Hey, give me the bed, you go sleep on the sofa"... How should I put it, it's a bit heartless.

"Hayakawa..."

Yotsuba watched Hayakawa walk away, and opened her mouth as if to try to dissuade him, but Hayakawa waved his hand with his back to her and lay down on the sofa.

However, his expression froze slightly the next moment.

He was lying on the sofa with a long stretch of his legs hanging in mid-air. The cramped sofa was uncomfortable no matter how he tried to sleep, and he couldn't even stretch his legs out, so he couldn't fall asleep at all.

"..."

Wow, the sofas in this hotel are so small! Not even big enough for one person to sleep on.

"Uh…"

Ichika and Yotsuba were also a little embarrassed, and said with slight doubt, "It's a bit strange. When we looked at it, we thought this sofa was big enough for one person to sleep on, but when we lay down, we found it was so small."

"Get up for a moment."

Ichika walked to Hayakawa's sofa, pulled him up, and then lay down on it herself.

As expected, not to mention Hayakawa, who is quite tall, even Ichika, a slender girl, had a hard time lying on it. She could only barely fall asleep, and even the slightest movement risked falling off the sofa. Obviously, it was impossible for anyone to sleep on it. Even if one managed to sleep through the night, one would definitely have a sore back and aching waist the next day.

"What do we do now..."

Ichika stood up from the sofa and looked at Hayakawa and Yotsuba next to her.

The three of them originally used the sofa as a place to sleep, but now they can't, and there are suddenly not enough beds.

"otherwise…"

Hayakawa suddenly felt a stirring in his heart and looked at Yotsuba beside him with a burning gaze.

"what…"

Four-leaf's face instantly turned as red as a tomato, and she quickly turned her head away to avoid his burning gaze.

How could I possibly sleep with you?! Ichika is still here.

Yotsuba's heart was racing for no reason, and she didn't dare to move to meet Hayakawa's gaze.

If Ichika weren't here, it wouldn't matter; the two of them would probably end up lying together without any problems, and the hotel's security measures would probably have to be put to use. But now that Ichika is here, Yotsuba, who is extremely shy, can't do anything except treat each other with the utmost respect.

"Ugh…"

Hayakawa felt a strange sense of loss upon seeing Yotsuba's reaction, but also a touch of shame.

It seems I've changed quite a bit lately, even having the thought of sleeping with Yotsuba. It's really... a bit shameless.

Hayakawa's expression remained indifferent, yet a strange sense of embarrassment arose within him.

This is too humiliating; I should probably restrain myself a little.

……

After some back and forth, Hayakawa ended up making a makeshift bed on the floor next to the bed with her bedding, while Yotsuba and Ichika slept on the bed together.

There was no other way. The sofa was gone, and Ichika and Yotsuba couldn't sleep in the bed with Hayakawa. They couldn't just make Hayakawa sleep in the double bed alone and then kick the two girls out onto the floor.

That's going too far. If word gets back to Ichinose Academy, Hayakawa will probably be ridiculed by a bunch of girls and suffer social death.

"The lights are off."

Hayakawa turned off the light, plunging the room into darkness. He returned to his makeshift bed on the floor, where the blankets and mattress were a bit cold, causing him to shiver.

I already caught a chill from being rained on today, and now I have to sleep on a cold bed on the floor. It looks like it will be a bit difficult to fall asleep.

"Ah, it's so warm..."

Ichika, lying comfortably on the bed, said something, only to have Yotsuba, sitting next to her, cover her mouth.

Hayakawa didn't care much. There's a common sense about girls and boys sleeping together: in most cases, boys will wake up in the middle of the night because they're too hot, while girls will always wake up because they're too cold, no matter how warm their blankets are before they go to sleep. Hayakawa herself was always too hot to sleep and often had to lift the blankets to reset the temperature.

Both girls were tired from studying for so long and fell asleep soon after. Hayakawa, who wasn't one to chat before bed, also closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

……

In the dark stairwell, the girl stood at the bottom of the stairs, her face blank and confused.

Where am I?

Wasn't I sleeping in my room just now? How come I'm in the stairwell now?

Suddenly, her body stiffened as a voice came from not far away.

"Can't find it..."

Yihua's expression suddenly changed drastically. Her pale face turned towards the direction of the voice, and sure enough, a familiar figure was squatting in the corner of the stairwell, and a resentful voice came from the dim light.

"Can't find it..."

For a moment, Yi Hua felt her soul tremble and she was so frightened that she lost her composure. Her legs trembled slightly, and she turned and walked downstairs without hesitation.

Anyone who goes up to ask questions like in the movies at this time is a fool; they'll be dead the moment they turn their head. A smart person would run away immediately.

However, reality is not like a movie; you can't just run away whenever you want. Yihua ran with all her might for a long time, but it seemed like she was just standing still, never leaving the stairwell. The voice still clung to her like a leech, and it even grew louder and louder.

Yihua didn't stop; she kept running desperately.

Hayakawa... We must find Hayakawa.

Her heart was pounding, her adrenaline was surging, and her mind was completely clear. For some reason, at that moment, Ichika thought of Hayakawa.

I could only think of him.

She didn't know how much time had passed before she finally ran out of breath and stopped in place. The sound behind her disappeared, but Yihua didn't dare to turn around. She could only stand there stiffly, because that cold aura was right behind her.

“I can’t find it…”

A voice suddenly rang out, a clear yet hoarse female voice accompanied by a gust of cold wind blowing against the back of Yihua's head, as if right next to her ear.

Yi Hua felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and she closed her eyes tightly in despair.

Hayakawa... help me...

The next moment, a face in the shadows suddenly appeared in front of her. It was a face completely covered by hair, but through the gaps in the hair, she could see that it had no eyes.

She said hoarsely, "Find her."
