I'm doing abstract animation

He was stunned because the strange woman in the white coat in front of him claimed to be his homeroom teacher. The problem was that his homeroom teacher was not Yukari... Wasn't his homeroom teacher Teacher Toriumi?

Who exactly is this woman in front of me who looks like she's got a violent streak?

"What's wrong, Yuuki?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka sensed that something was off about the guy in front of her. Not only had he tied his hair up, but he also gave off a completely different vibe than before.

And, is this guy really that handsome?

I hadn't noticed at all before. If this guy went to school looking like this, wouldn't all the teenage girls go crazy with joy?

"Teacher, I got up a little early, so I came out for a walk."

After thinking it over, 'Yuki Risa' decided to pretend for the time being, since the current situation was a bit complicated and he had no idea what had happened.

Hiratsuka Shizuka glanced at him suspiciously, but didn't say anything more. After all, she hadn't dealt with Yuuki Risa much and wasn't familiar with his nasty personality.

"It's fate that we've run into each other. Could you do me a favor?"

Looking at the honest-looking Yuuki Risa in front of her, Hiratsuka Shizuka rolled her eyes and decided to find a conscript.

Of course, she wasn't really conscripting students; her main goal was to deepen her relationship with them, especially with problem children like Yuki Rin... Yes, that's it.

'Yuki Risa' nodded.

The other party claimed to be his teacher, saying he was just helping out and it was no big deal.

Moreover, it's a good opportunity to subtly inquire about one's current situation.

So he went with Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"Teacher, where are we going?"

The two walked side by side, and 'Yuki Risa' asked the first question.

"Well, one of our classmates had a family emergency and dropped out of school. I'm going to try to persuade him to stay and see if there's anything I can do to help."

Thinking about where she was going, Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't help but sigh. That child was really too pitiful.

Yuki remained silent. He didn't know the details of the matter and couldn't offer his opinion, but he did develop a slight liking for the teacher in front of him.

A teacher who cares so much about a student who has dropped out of school is undoubtedly a good teacher.

Compared to that guy who's been complaining online and has ulterior motives towards me... well, she's a good teacher too.

"By the way, Yuki, I remember you were looking for a student with dead fish eyes a while ago, right? That guy seems to be Dead Fish Eyes."

Suddenly remembering something, Hiratsuka Shizuka smiled at Yuuki Risa and said, "He might be the person you're looking for!"

Dead fish eyes?

A question mark appeared on Yuki Risa's forehead.

Why would you want to look like a dead fish?

But since Hiratsuka Shizuka was staring at him, he couldn't ask anything and could only nod awkwardly and vaguely.

Oh, you're even shy now...

Seeing that Yuuki was a little embarrassed, Hiratsuka Shizuka suddenly realized that this guy wasn't as bad as she had imagined.

So they were cosplaying on the rooftop earlier...

“Yuki, I remember your profile says you have a well-off uncle, right? Why don’t you go and live with your uncle and his family? Although it might be a bit awkward to be living under someone else’s roof, they are still blood relatives. It would be better than living alone.”

Taking advantage of the rare opportunity, Hiratsuka Shizuya wanted to understand his student better and seized the chance to ask his question.

what?

Do I have an uncle?

'Yuki Risa' was completely numb. How come I didn't know I had an uncle?

At this moment, he finally understood that he had arrived in a parallel universe with a completely different fate due to some special circumstances. In this parallel universe, he even had an uncle!

Huh?

Why did I use "even"?

Yuki felt her brain was overloaded and started having all sorts of wild thoughts.

"Alright, Yuki, we've arrived."

Fortunately, Hiratsuka Shizuka only touched on the matter briefly and did not pursue it further, though it's also possible that they had achieved their goal.

Chiba University Hospital, Faculty of Medicine.

'So I'm in Chiba now...'

Upon seeing the name of the hospital, 'Yuki Ryou' finally understood where she was.

'But wasn't this supposed to be a home visit? Why are they at the hospital...?'

He thought for a moment, and then, recalling what Hiratsuka Shizuka had said earlier about "something happening at home," he immediately fell silent.

So the incident refers to...

Following behind Hiratsuka Shizuka, they arrived at a private hospital room.

Pushing open the door, there were two people inside.

A girl lying quietly on the bed and a boy sleeping on the edge of the bed...

Volume 1: Chapter 61 The Hikigaya Siblings

The noise of the door opening startled the boy on the edge of the bed. He first looked at the girl on the bed, and after finding that she was still asleep, he looked at the door and saw that it was Hiratsuka Shizuka. He then put his index finger to his lips.

This is a signal for her to be quiet.

Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded in understanding and stood at the door without moving.

The boy carefully stood up, covered the girl with a blanket, and then quietly led the two of them into the hospital corridor.

"Excuse me, Hiratsuka-sensei, Komachi just went to sleep."

The boy apologized first, then asked wearily, "Is there something you need, Hiratsuka-sensei?"

Only then did 'Yuki Risa' get a clear look at the boy's face.

The boy had very striking dead fish eyes, messy hair that looked like it hadn't been washed in a long time, and a very haggard face that showed he hadn't had a good rest in a long time.

Hiratsuka Shizuka sighed, took a small package out of her trench coat pocket and handed it to the boy: "Hachigaya, this is money that the students in your class pooled together after they learned about you. It may not be much, but it is everyone's good intention."

Hikigaya paused for a moment, then shook his head: "I can't accept this money, Hiratsuka-sensei."

"Stop whining. This money is for Komachi, not for you." Hiratsuka Shizuka shoved the package into Hachiman's arms with dissatisfaction. "See this guy next to me? He's the representative sent by the class. If you don't accept the money, I think you'll be accused of malicious fundraising."

Yuuki Osamu: "..."

He now understood why Hiratsuka Shizuka had asked him to come along.

But he's happy to cooperate in these kinds of things.

He nodded and said, "This is everyone's kind gesture, Hachiman, please accept it."

Hikigaya: "..."

He glanced at Hiratsuka Shizuka with mixed feelings, then at Yuuki Risa, before finally stuffing the money into his pocket.

He knew that the money must have come from Hiratsuka Shizuka herself. He hadn't even entered the classroom, so how could anyone be willing to donate? Hiratsuka Shizuka would never ask the students to contribute money for that reason, so the money could only have come from Hiratsuka Shizuka herself.

But in any case, he remembered this kindness.

"Is Komachi feeling any better?"

Seeing that he accepted the money, Hiratsuka Shizuka secretly breathed a sigh of relief before asking about the girl's situation.

Speaking of his sister, Hachiman Hikigaya's face darkened: "She's still the same, her emotions are not very stable."

Hiratsuka Shizuya sighed, "You've really had a tough time."

'Yuki Risa' moved closer to the door of the ward without making a sound, secretly observing the condition of the girl on the bed.

When he first entered the ward, he felt as if he saw something strange, but he was not sure and needed to observe it more closely.

The ward was the same as before, except that Hachiman was no longer lying on the edge of the bed; only the girl was lying quietly on the bed.

'Strange, it feels like everything's gone again.'

He was a little confused; he clearly felt like he saw something when he entered the ward...

While he was still wondering, Hiratsuka Shizuka and Hikigaya continued their conversation.

"It's like this, Hachiman. Although it's not good to bring this up now, I still want to ask if you have any thoughts about re-enrolling in school."

Seemingly afraid that Hachiman Hikigaya would misunderstand, Shizuka Hiratsuka quickly added, "Of course, I don't mean you have to enroll now. What I mean is that you can consider enrolling after Komachi recovers. Don't worry about the trouble, I'll arrange everything."

For some reason, Shizuka Hiratsuka always felt sorry for this boy who had suffered a major setback before even enrolling in school and had to drop out, which is why she cared so much about him.

But Hachiman Hikigaya shook his head without even thinking when Hiratsuka Shizuka tried to persuade him: "Hiratsuka-sensei, you are a good teacher, and I thank you for your kindness, but you know my situation. Even if Komachi recovers, her legs... I only have Komachi left now, and I really don't have the mind to think about studying anymore."

Hachiman Hikigaya's face was full of sorrow. He never imagined that just one trip would turn his family into this.

Hiratsuka Shizuka shook her head and ultimately did not continue to persuade him. This child was already strong enough. Just as he said, he only had his younger sister left, and it was really not appropriate for him to go to school anymore.

"Get away!"

"Get out of here, you monsters!"

A sharp, girlish voice suddenly rang out in the hospital room.

Both Hachiman Hikigaya and Shizuka Hiratsuka's expressions changed, and they rushed to the ward.

But there was one person who acted even faster: 'Yuki Risa'.

It's here!

His movements were even more swift; the moment the girl's scream rang out, he was at the bedside in the blink of an eye, right before his eyes.

Countless skulls formed from black mist suddenly appeared above the girl's hospital bed, emitting piercing screams as if mocking her fear.

"What is that? A shadow?!"

'Yuuki Osamu' looked shocked: 'But it's still daytime!'

"Get out of the way!"

At that moment, Hachiman Hikigaya pushed him aside and rushed to the hospital bed.

"Don't be afraid, Komachi, your brother is here. Your brother is here. No one can hurt you..."

Hachiman Hikigaya held the struggling girl tightly, constantly comforting her with gentle words.

Under his comforting words, Komachi gradually calmed down, but her eyes were incredibly empty as she stared blankly at the ceiling.

And that was the place where countless black skeletons hovered!

Gradually, the black mist began to shrink and thin, as if it had found an entrance, and surged towards the girl's exposed legs.

'Yuki Risa' hurriedly reached out to stop him, only to find that the black energy had completely passed through his palm and entered the girl's legs until it disappeared.

'What exactly is this thing?'

He withdrew his palm, but there was nothing there.

"What are you doing, Yuuki!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was behind him, quickly pulled him away, saying, "That's very impolite of you."

“No, Hiratsuka-sensei…” 'Yuuki Osamu' quickly explained, “Didn’t you see it? That black aura just now…”

boom!

Hiratsuka Shizuka gave him a whack on the head, but the pain made her wince. "Is your head made of steel? How come it's so hard... Seriously, if you're going to be a chuunibyou, don't do it in someone else's hospital room!"

'Can't Hiratsuka-sensei and Hachiman-kun see this...?'

Yukiri seemed to be deep in thought. Hachiman Hikigaya, who had just entered, had completely ignored the wisps of black energy. Now it seemed that only he could see the black energy... no, there was someone else who could see it.

He turned his gaze to Komachi Hikigaya, whose eyes were vacant. The girl had probably seen it too, and her current state was likely due to the influence of the dark energy.

After all, he was a real man who had climbed the tower. Although he didn't know much about the incident, he understood it very quickly.
