Inside the school.
They are five meters apart.
Hikigaya followed the girl with a headache.
Not that he wanted to follow, and this guy was actually going to the Sheep Shearing Club, wouldn't it be that he had offended her at some point?
It shouldn't be!
Although it does feel familiar.
But he really didn't remember that there was such a character among the people he knew.
Hikigaya pondered.
It shouldn't be Class B. Although most of the people in Class B don't know each other, at least they have some impressions if they meet every day.
The remaining opportunities to meet other people are just sports festivals and deserted islands.
Most likely a student from Class D.
"Ah..."
Hikigaya remembered.
This slut seemed to have mocked him at the time, wouldn't it really come to trouble him?
The two came to the Sheep Shearing Club on the fifth floor.
...
"Why are you not answering."
Karuizawa stopped, staring at the phone in fear, no matter how many times she dialed, the phone always showed that the other party was on the call.
Just at this moment,
She hears footsteps coming from behind, Karuizawa's heart was instantly filled with joy, and she hurriedly turned around....
She saw a boy following behind him, his face hung with a lifeless look.
Karuizawa was extremely disappointed and felt a bit lost, then hesitated and stared at the man in front of her.
What?
Could it be that you are Bon Clay? Are you changing your face here for me?
Hikigaya was a bit nervous and said:
"What...what's the matter?"
"..."
After hesitating for a moment,
Karuizawa pursed her lips.
Anyway.
The man in front of her is not thin, but he is not burly either.
Moreover, since she doesn't know him.
He is probably not famous in school, obviously has no ability, he is just a very ordinary student.
And his stuttering performance just now.
Most likely his communication skills are not very good, he stutters when talking to girls, and he is probably very timid.
No matter how you look at it.
The man in front of her is not a trustworthy person.
Karuizawa still decided not to say anything, but there was a thread of longing in her heart, she hesitated for a moment before saying in a weak voice:
"You...why are you following me
"Uh..."
Hikigaya pointed to the classroom next to him and said: "I have something to do with the club..."
"Is that so..."
Karuizawa pursed her lips and didn't speak.
"Is there anything wrong?"
Hearing Hikigaya's question, Karuizawa pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and shook her head:
"No..."
"Then I'll go first..."
Hikigaya pointed in the direction of the classroom and tentatively left her side.
It wasn't until he opened the door to the Sheep Shearing Club.
Hikigaya sneakily took a look at her, she was still observing this side with hesitation, as if she wanted to grasp the last straw but was still hesitant.
"Bang."
Hikigaya quickly closed the door.
Even if she didn't come to find him, she would want to rely on someone like him, that guy's appearance is obviously a trouble, it's better not to have too much contact.
Water heater, computer, treadmill, microwave...
Hikigaya unplugged the sockets one by one, and after a careful check, there should be no omissions.
Speaking of which.
That girl wouldn't still be waiting outside, would he?
Should I go out or not?
What if I run into her and she is asking for help?
I Might as well not go out right?
Or....
Just wait for that guy to leave before going out, it's the same anyway.
Hikigaya sat in his seat, looking at the few soft cookies left on the table, they should have been made by Kobashi Yume and others and forgotten to clean up.
Although he was wearing a sweater,
But the weather has indeed turned cold, and he can still feel a chill all over his body.
"It's so cold..."
Hikigaya got up and left the classroom.
Speaking of which, he doesn't know her at all, there is no need to worry about that guy, it's more comfortable to go back to the dormitory and turn on the air conditioner.
Leaving the club.
Only to find that the girl was no longer there.
This is the fifth floor, and there are usually not many people around.
If it's not unexpected, her destination should be the rooftop upstairs.
Wow
She's really a loose woman.
She must be going to the rooftop to do some loose things.
She doesn't care about the school, a public place at all, even if she does this, she can't blame others.
Hikigaya walked to the stairs, stepped lightly on the steps and went up.
He wants to peek!
A big black man appeared in his field of vision, he was wearing sunglasses and standing at the door with his hands behind his back like a door god.
It was the big black man who stepped on Sudou at the sports festival, which left a strong impression on him.
"Uh..."
Hikigaya clutched his chest.
A strong feeling of nausea surged up.
Ryuen is looking for the suspect X in Class D, a girl from Class D who is scared, and a big black man guarding the door.
This is bullying, right?
This is obviously preparing to bully, right?
Anyway, it's definitely not doing anything good, otherwise that guy from Class D wouldn't be so scared.
Hikigaya turned around and left,
He hurriedly walked down the stairs, it's better to keep a respectful distance.
He and that girl are not familiar at all, let alone she mocked him on the uninhabited island.
There is no need to help her at all.
"Wait."
Back on the fifth floor, Hikigaya stopped again.
If he could get evidence of bullying, he could definitely bring down Class C in an instant, so that Class B could fight with Class A without any worries.
Moreover.
Such an important occasion.
Ryuen has been leading the search for suspect X, he must be there, maybe he can directly bring down Ryuen, so that Class C will never turn over.
"Step step step."
Hikigaya returned to the space between the two floors with light steps, secretly observing the big black man.
But.
Hikigaya is still very self-aware.
Even if he wants to catch evidence.
Let alone the big black man in front of him, even if it's Ryuen, or even his lackey Ishizaki, Hikigaya is confident that he can't beat any of them.
Let's go.
After all, leading Class B to Class A is Ichinose's business, what does it have to do with him, a wage slave?
Hikigaya turned around and walked down the stairs.
"Wait."
Back on the fifth floor,
Hikigaya stopped again.
Just now, that girl from Class D has been calling for help, the other end of the phone should be the suspect X that Ryuen wants to find.
Although there is no evidence.
But the first thing that came to Hikigaya's mind was a guy named Ayanokouji Kiyotaka.
After all,
He doesn't know anyone else in Class D.
Isn't it possible?
After all, no matter Sudou, Hirata, Yamauchi Haruki these muggles, they don't look like it at all, if it's Koenji, Ryuen should use it to bully a girl.
Yes.
It must be Ayanokouji Kiyotaka without a doubt.
And.
He is familiar with that big black man, the other party may not know him!
Anyway.
Hikigaya only remembers that the two of them only met at the sports festival.
It was just that he was watching from the perspective of a bystander, watching the big black man beating Sudou, just because he was a foreigner, he was very conspicuous.
Therefore.
It left a deep impression on him.
These days Ryuen has not been with the big black man, but today he brought him and arranged for him to guard the door.
Is there a reason for this?
In any case.
The big black man should have no reason to know him.
It's really careless of Ryuen to not bring the person in charge of guarding the door to recognize people.
Then experience the brutal beating of society!
"Step step step..."
Hikigaya turned back again, took a deep breath before walking up to the rooftop, hearing the movement, the big black man quickly turned his head to look.
"It's me, it's me~"
Hikigaya raised his right hand with a smile, greeting in a light-hearted tone.
This is the famous "It's me, it's me" scam on TV.
The essence of it is to use a light-hearted way to make strangers think that the two are very familiar, old friends who haven't seen each other for many years.
Foreigners should be careful not to be deceived by such characteristic scams in Japan.
"..."
The big black man stood with his hands behind his back, like a tower standing at the door, the eyes behind his sunglasses suddenly showed a scrutinizing look.
".... "
"What?"
Hikigaya curled his lips, looked arrogant and somewhat disdainful:
"Don't you recognize me? By the way, what is Ryuen doing, why he let a guy like you to keep watch, you better take me in quickly, otherwise you can't afford this responsibility."
In the world.
More than ninety percent of people.
They are all afraid of risk and hate responsibility.
As soon as they hear that they need to bear responsibility, most people will hesitate.
Speaking of which.
This big black man wouldn't be a mute, right? Say something.
Hikigaya's heart was pounding.
The big black man in front of him was wearing sunglasses, and he couldn't see his expression at all.
Isn't it a bit mean?
Why not?
I should buy one for myself in the future.
"..."
Albert, the big black guy, hesitated for a moment before stepping aside.
Is the suspect X that Ryuen is looking for such a person?
It feels a bit different from the mastermind I imagined.
"That's right."
"Only leaders need to take responsibility."
This should mean he wants me to go over, right?
Hikigaya walked past him with a frivolous tone, and the big black guy followed him without saying a word.
What is this?
It's too scary.
These guys.
They dare to cause violent incidents in public places like schools?
"Squeak."
Hikigaya twisted the doorknob, took a deep breath, and pushed open the door.
It's over.
It seems that my parents' inheritance can only be left to Komachi.
Since Komachi can inherit all the property, it doesn't seem so scary when I think about it.
Hikigaya walked onto the rooftop.
What caught his eye were Ryuen, Ishizaki, and Ibuki Mio, who had a fierce face but was actually gentle when they met at the cinema last time.
The girl from Class D was sitting on the ground in a duck-sitting posture with her hands on her head, and her blue shirt had been wetted by water.
Ishizaki was bending over, preparing to change another bucket of water.
Obviously, he is the culprit.
The surveillance equipment on the rooftop was pitch black, and the red dot that was operating could not be seen at all, obviously Ryuen and others had done something.
This...
It's still scary.
Hikigaya wanted to go back in an instant.
Speaking of which, is it too late for him to go back now?
