Does gravity make me stronger?

The message that Kaguya Shinomiya sent him at the last minute sent chills down his spine.

Hayasaka Ai (Kaguya Shinomiya): Hikigaya-kun, did you meet your study time target today?

This guy must have sent someone to follow him!

Hachiman wiped the cold sweat from his brow and secretly calculated his schedule for the day, typing it into his phone.

Hachiman: Sorry, I'll start making up for it now.

Hayasaka Ai (Kaguya Shinomiya): Okay, I believe you can control yourself. Don't let me down!

Hayasaka Ai (Kaguya Shinomiya): Oh right, I just went to the beach. Want me to send you a picture?

"!?"

As soon as the cool breeze subsided, Kikuka Hachiman typed rapidly on the screen.

Hachiman: I'm sorry, I was wrong!

No more news came through, and under Kaguya Shinomiya's subtle (or overt) prompting, he studied diligently until dinner time.

It was 9 p.m.

Su Shi: "It's getting late, why don't you stay here?"

Hachiman and Shoko exchanged a glance and shook their heads simultaneously.

Xiangzi said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Su Shi, the school has a rule that we must be back before curfew. Can you forgive me?"

"Ok."

It was obvious that Su Shi looked somewhat disappointed.

But she quickly cheered herself up: "By the way, Xiangzi, can you come with me?"

"it is good."

Su Shi took Xiangzi's hand and led her to her bedroom.

Xiangzi asked, somewhat puzzled, "Is something the matter? And why aren't the lights on?"

Then, she felt a hard box being shoved into her hand, covered with smooth plastic wrapping paper.

Chapter 242, Page 239: Su Shi: Ball speed 160km/h, target Koshien (National High School Football Championship)

The box is a square, rectangular plastic box with a hard feel. It looks a bit like a large chewing gum box, or a bit like a women's cigarette box.

cigarette?

impossible.

So Su Shi was going to offer her some chewing gum?

So suddenly?

Many options popped into my head, but I eliminated them one by one because they were too illogical, and finally gave up guessing altogether.

"This is?"

He moved slightly toward the window, and with the help of the faint moonlight, Xiangzi immediately saw what looked like chewing gum in his hand.

O001.

w(?Д?)w

Indeed.

Xiangzi didn't know much about that kind of thing, but she was, after all, a healthy high school student, and she already knew what she needed to know.

Things I shouldn't know...

I know a little bit about it.

For example, having a baby isn't something that can be welcomed just by kissing and hugging, and babies aren't brought to us by cranes when they're young.

But when this overly realistic thing was placed in front of him, Xiangzi felt as if his whole body was on fire, and in an instant, his pretty face was flushed with a delicate pinkish-red.

"Su-Su-Shi, what have you shown me?"

What is Kang?

Of course it's a great deal!

Well, even though it was her own suggestion, Su Shi was still not that fearless.

But when confronted with her friend's questioning, she awkwardly turned her head away, avoiding the other person's scrutinizing gaze.

"Xiangzi, don't you understand?"

"...Should I understand?"

Su Shi: Of course you should understand!

Su Shi: This is an unspoken understanding between girls!

Xiangzi: Perfect understanding, my foot!

Su Shi suppressed the shyness rising in her heart and coughed lightly, saying, "Ahem, this is an important safety measure, Xiangzi-chan. You probably don't want to become a mother before graduating from high school, do you?"

Although somewhat irrational, Xiangzi still intuitively sensed a hidden condition in Su Shi's words—

Xiangzi: I mean, is there a way to not be a mother without using safety measures?

Su Shi: Hiss, could it be that Xiangzi has already considered getting sterilized?

( ??`д??)?? ┻━┻

"We're only in our first year of high school, why are we in such a rush!"

"What's wrong with the first year of high school?"

Su Shi glared at him, pouted, and clearly felt some resentment in her words.

Xiangzi: "But shouldn't we wait until after we're married to start thinking about these things?"

Outdated and pedantic!

Outdated!

Stubborn and unyielding!

If she could, Su Shi would love to use a three-part combo to wake this conservative up.

"In this day and age, everyone has this experience by high school."

"what..."

Xiangzi thought of his classmates from junior high school; they were all in high school...

"Damn stockings!"

Whether out of shyness or inner resistance, Xiangzi wanted to return the small box.

But Su Shi firmly refused, and then began to coax him gently: "Xiangzi, what are you worried about? You are no longer the eldest daughter of the Fengchuan family, so you don't need to consider those outdated constraints. Besides, our relationship is consensual and does not violate any morals."

"It's not because of that kind of problem..."

"Is it because you don't like it?"

"Not at all."

Xiangzi's face turned so red it looked like it would drip water at the slightest touch.

She wasn't actually opposed to what would happen next, but due to her upbringing, she was rather conservative in this regard.

A kiss on the lips was the closest she could tolerate; as for inappropriate distance, she hadn't even considered it.

That was true at least until high school graduation.

As everyone knows, the one who understands girls best is definitely another girl.

"So you didn't dislike it after all. That's good."

Su Shi's eyes were sharp; she seemed to have grasped the weakness in Xiangzi's words and asked directly, "Speaking of which, where are Xiangzi and Hachiman at now?"

"W-what extent?"

Xiangzi was so taken aback by the question that he stumbled back half a step, his calf brushed against the corner of the bed, and he fell off the bed.

Fortunately, the soft yet sturdy single bed caught her weight.

Xiangzi lay on his back on the bed, his innocent yet frightened animal-like state was so charming that even Su Shi, who was also a woman, found it hard to resist and her breathing became rapid.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'll get up right away."

"It's alright, I'd be happy if Xiangzi sat on my bed."

Su Shi approached step by step, showing no intention of letting her go. Under Xiangzi's trembling and helpless gaze, she excitedly asked, "What I was just talking about was your progress with Hachiman, right? Did you kiss?"

"Not...not yet."

As if he had lost, Xiangzi turned his face away and then sighed heavily.

So, does kissing through a cherry tomato count as a kiss?

I don't think so.

Upon hearing this, Su Shi felt an urge to howl.

So Xiangzi and Hachiman are still stuck at this stage.

Okawaii Kodo.

Nagasaki Motoyo confidently adopted the role of an elder and began to lecture: "Shoko, you can't do this. If there's no progress, I'll be very distressed too."

"Why...why?" the innocent Xiao Xiang asked in confusion.

"Since we're both Hachiman's girlfriends, how can one of us run off alone? If things progress too fast between Hachiman and me, Shoko will feel uneasy, won't she?"

Are you uneasy?

Xiangzi turned his face away again: "Speaking of which, can we change the subject...?"

"Damn!"

Su Shi made an X with her index finger: "I'm being very serious, Xiangzi-chan. You can't keep going like this. You have to try to overcome your shortcomings too."

Xiangzi lay on the bed, hugging his legs in a wronged manner, then rested his chin on his knees: "...Su Shi, what do you suggest we do?"

The bait has been taken.

Su Shi squinted her eyes with satisfaction; "Well, I can understand Xiangzi's difficulties now. Let's take it one step at a time. In any case, let's set our goal for next time as kissing!"

The topic changed a bit too quickly, and Xiangzi covered his mouth in surprise: "Oh, how did it turn out like this?"

"It's okay, keep it up, Xiangzi, I believe in you."

"I... okay..."

Get it!

Su Shi nodded happily.

At this moment, Xiangzi's resentful gaze drifted over: "Speaking of which, why did Su Shi do something so bold back in Chiba? That day I even thought you guys had already..."

"Huh~ already what?"

It's already done!

Su Shi deliberately dragged out his words, and only after Xiangzi had completely turned red did he wave his hand and say, "Well. Because at that time, I was thinking about how to guard against Xiangzi. Facing such a terrifying opponent, you absolutely cannot win without being prepared to die."

"The awareness of certain death? That's a really strange way to put it."

Xiangzi pouted: "But this is too cunning..."

Su Shi took off her slippers and sat down next to Xiangzi: "It's okay, Xiangzi will be like this sooner or later."

"Then, I'll have to rely on you from now on. I really don't know much about this."

"Okay."

...

In the living room, Hachiman, completely unaware of what was happening in the bedroom, was excitedly memorizing English words.

Suddenly, Yu Guangzhong caught a glimpse of Xiangzi and Su Shi slowly emerging from the bedroom hand in hand, and then listlessly put down his phone.

Something's not right, nine out of ten things are wrong...
