The Strongest Loner Redo His Youth With Unmatched Prowess!! ~In the Second Round of School Life, He Made Beautiful Girl Friends!~ - Chapter 32: I’m Sorry

After defeating the men, Yuito reported to the police. 

According to Hina, the men were apparently connected to an anti-social organization. 

The men were taken to the police. 

However, the incident was not yet resolved for Yuito. 

“Um… could you let go of me?” 

“No way. I’m still scared.” 

Hina clung to Yuito and wouldn’t let go.

It seems she wants to be around people because of the fear of the incident. 

The police told him, “Please have your girlfriend take you home.”

But he’s not her boyfriend. 

“Pet my head.” 

“Huh?” 

“Pet my head!!” 

“Y-yes…” 

Following her instructions, Yuito patted Hina’s head. 

Her hair was smooth and felt nice to the touch.

“You’re kind of experienced… why?” 

Hina buried her face in Yuito’s chest and asked in a muffled voice. 

Her tone was a bit low. 

Even though he petted her as she asked, she seemed to get sulky. 

“Because I have a younger sister…” 

“Oh… I see.” 

She suddenly became cheerful. 

She pressed her head against Yuito’s chest.

It’s like a cat marking its territory. 

“Um, shouldn’t we head home now?” 

Yuito and the others were still at the bar. 

They had been told by the police that they could stay until Hina calmed down. 

However, the eyes of the police investigating the scene were piercing. 

They were being given somewhat warm gazes. 

“Got it.”

Yuito and the others left the bar.

The sky had darkened. 

However, the city was bright and visibility was good. 

From across the street, he could see a pair walking towards him. 

“Ah!! Yuito-kun is there!!” 

“So you were caught up in trouble after all. It was a good call to chase after the police car.”

Someone he knows said that.

It was Kirika and Hakari.

“Hey, why are you two…” 

“N-no, I just happened to pass by…” 

Kirika averted her gaze while blowing a poor whistle. 

“Kirika-san, more importantly, the issue is Yuito-san’s situation. Why are you being hugged?” 

“Oh, right!? What’s going on!?”

Hina glanced at Hakari and then glared at Yuito. 

Murderous intent seeped from her eyes. 

“Who are these women?” 

“Um, they’re just friends…” 

“Hmm.” 

Hina glared at Hakari. 

Next to her, it felt like a phantom tiger appeared.

Growling and intimidating Hakari.

“Hi, I’m Maino Hina. I’m Yuito’s girlfriend.” 

“”G-girlfriend?!””

Hina’s bombshell statement made Hakari, Kirika――and even Yuito gasp in surprise. 

“Wait a minute?! Why is Yuito surprised too?!” 

“W-when did you two start dating…?” 

Without anyone knowing, she had become his girlfriend. 

For some reason, she had joined the ranks of the happy couples.

“You said you liked me earlier, right? It felt like we were going to start dating, didn’t it?!” 

“Did I say I liked you…?” 

Now that he thinks about it――he might have said something like that when they were drinking non-alcoholic drinks at the bar. 

“Wait, did you mean that as a friend…” 

“Huh?! We went to a mixer together, and you think it was just as friends?!” 

“R-right.”

He can’t believe it, he confessed without even realizing it.

Yuito felt embarrassed all of a sudden. 

He started to panic. 

“I’m s-sorry! I didn’t notice!” 

It seemed like Hakari and Kirika somewhat understood the situation. 

They were also taken aback by Yuito. 

“Wow… you really messed up there…” 

“We came to protect you, Yuito-san, but you’re the one causing trouble…” 

“This is unexpected. I didn’t think you’d trigger a landmine yourself…”

When Hina realized that the confession was a misunderstanding, her face turned bright red, and she trembled. 

Was it shame or rage? 

Probably both. 

“You idiot!!” 

Hina clenched her fist and swung it towards Yuito’s stomach. 

A full-powered right straight. 

A punch to the gut filled with a maiden’s resentment. 

However, the opponent was tough. 

“Ouch!? How hard are your abs!?”

“I’m s-sorry.” 

Yuito was countered by his hard abs. 

It might be the first time in human history that someone apologized for having hard abs. 

“That’s enough!! Idiot! Scum! Loner!!” 

“Ugh… I’m sorry.” 

Hina shouted at Yuito and walked away with heavy footsteps. 

After seeing Hina off, Hakari and Kirika exchanged glances.

“What should we do? Should we chase after her and comfort her?” 

“It seems like Yuito-san might be hurt too. His body is steel, but his heart is tofu.” 

“Then, should we decide who goes by playing rock-paper-scissors?” 

As they were discussing this, Hina appeared from across the street.

“Yuito. Next time, get in touch. I’ll make you go on a date as compensation for this time!!” 

After shouting that, she walked away again. 

“…She seems fine.” 

“Then, shall we deal with this idiot over here?” 

“I’m sorry. I’m just a worthless, introverted loser.”
