Chapter 161 Asking For Leave, Ichinose Collapses

After class.

The people in Class B gathered around with worried faces.

"I wonder how Honami-chan is doing now. If she is sick, is it okay for her to be alone?"

"It's okay if you're just sick, but if you're not sick..."

"what do you mean?"

"Are you trying to say that Honami is feeling guilty? Are you also doubting whether those rumors might be true?"

"I didn't mean that. I'm also worried about Honami's situation."

"Everyone, calm down!"

Kanzaki quickly raised his hands and stood between the two to comfort them.

It's just that Ichinose is not here.

Class B has become what it is now. Sure enough, Ichinose's existence is very important to Class B.

"There's no point in discussing this here."

"Anyway, how about we go visit Ichinose after school?"

"I agree."

"I still have club activities, and I may have to wait until after the club activities are over before I can go."

"It doesn't matter."

"Amikura, Shiranami, you usually closer to Ichinose, could you please go and check on the situation first?"

"no problem."

Under Kanzaki's comfort.

The atmosphere in Class B finally relaxed a little, and everyone agreed to visit Ichinose.

"Right!"

at this time.

Shibata turned to look at Hikigaya sitting in his seat, with a complicated expression on his face.

"Hikigaya, you should also go to see Ichinose."

Even if Shibata doesn't want to admit it.

But there is also a feeling that in Ichinose's eyes, Hikigaya may be more special than other classmates in Class B.

If Hikigaya can visit her, it should have a good effect.

"No, forget it."

Hikigaya quickly refused.

Although he is slightly concerned about it.

But Ichinose was only absent for a day, so it would be outrageous for Kanzaki and others to worry like this.

Ichinose is clearly the leader of Class B.

While expecting Ichinose to lead them to Class A, they also looked after Ichinose like a cute little sister.

This relationship Is really weird in Hikigaya's eyes.

He can't even tell whether this is trust a or what. Since Ichinose is the class leader, they should at least give the leader a little trust.

"What did you say?"

Shibata was in disbelief and immediately slapped the table with both hands:

"Hikigaya, don't you think you should visit because you have received so much care from Ichinose?"

"Shibata..."

The girls around him were immediately stunned. This was the first time they saw Shibata angry.

It's scary for Shibata, who is usually sunny and cheerful, to get angry.

The atmosphere in Class B suddenly became a little overwhelming.

"Um..."

Hikigaya stared at Shibata with dead eyes.

Although he knew that Shibata probably liked Ichinose, he lost his mind just after Ichinose was absent for a day.

He is just fallen into Sakayanagi's plan.

Sakayanagi accurately grasped Class B's weaknesses.

Everything about Class B.

They were all formed with Ichinose as the core.

Once Ichinose is lost, Class B may collapse instantly.

"that...","

Hikigaya didn't care and said: "At noon on Monday, I will go and have a look by myself.

Maybe.

Ichinose was really sick.

It's just a day off, there's no need to make a fuss about it.

If Monose continues to take leave next week, then the problem may become serious.

More importantly.

It always feels a little awkward to go to Ichinose's dormitory with the whole class, and it will only add unreasonable pressure to Ichinose.

"This...is..."

Only then did Shibata react.

Hikigaya does prefer to act alone. Even if he wants to see Ichinose, he will probably go alone.

Shibata, who regained his senses, suddenly felt a little excited by his previous behavior.

He quickly bowed and said:

"I'm sorry, Hikigaya-kun, I was a little emotional just now."

"No, don't take it to heart."

Hikigaya really didn't take it to heart, but hesitantly said:

"But I think it would be better if you don't have too many people to see Ichinose. With Ichinose's character, it will only increase the pressure on her for no reason...probably."

He wasn't very sure either.

Although Ichinose paid special attention to him, Hikigaya thought he had some understanding of Ichinose, but it was only the result of silent observation.

Actually.

Kobashi Yume and others must know Ichinose better than him.

indeed..."

Kanzaki and the others couldn't help but nodded.

It is also clear that Ichinose has a strong sense of responsibility.

Although Ichinose has a cheerful personality and often helps others, Ichinose rarely causes trouble for others.

"Well, let's let the girls go visit us first and check the situation first."

"I understand, then I'll go see Honami-chan after school."

The atmosphere in Class B improved slightly, but there was still a dark cloud hanging over it.

After school.

Wait until the club activities are over.

Hikigaya then left the school and returned to his dormitory.

Whether Ichinose is really sick or is indeed affected, we have to wait until next Monday to find out.

The key question is.

Hikigaya really couldn't figure out what Sakayanagi was going to do.

Absolutely no benefit whatsoever.

Even taking a step back.

If Sakayanagi defeats Ichinose here, Ichinose should be able to recover by the next exam, so he can't stay depressed forever.

Um

Hikigaya really can't understand it.

What kind of crime could make Ichinose so depressed? Did she really commit such a serious crime?

It is just a mistake.

There can be no saints in the world.

Whether it is big or small.

Everyone should have made a mistake once or twice.

In terms of failure, Hikigaya can be said that he is the king of losing streaks. Apart from being a little disappointed at the beginning, it no longer took it to heart.

It's really incomprehensible.

Why are they so obsessed with past mistakes.

is it necessary?

Hikigaya returned to the dormitory nonchalantly and couldn't help but stop.

There were several exquisite gift boxes placed at the door, with cards indicating their origins attached to them.

They were gifts from Hasebe Haruka, Kushida Kikyo, Sakura Airi, Shiina Hiyori, and Karuizawa Kei.

At first glance, it looks like Giri chocolate.

after all

"What are these guys doing..."

Hikigaya was really speechless.

Several gift boxes were placed haphazardly on both sides of the door, making people even suspect that they were accidentally abandoned garbage.

Only Karuizawa's gift box occupies the middle position domineeringly.

Even if it's just chocolate, please don't throw it away, okay?

If it weren't for the fact that it was within the range of his dormitory door, Hikigaya would have almost suspected that these were trash thrown by someone.

Picking up a few boxes of chocolates, Hikigaya returned to the room.

I really didn't expect to receive so many chocolates.

Even a hot girl like Karuizawa is a gentle and good person, at least much better than his frivolous classmates in junior high school.

Even though it's just chocolate, a return gift is still essential.

But.

Hikigaya threw a few boxes of chocolates into the drawer casually. Now is really not the time to think about this.

I had always thought Ichinose was very strong, and I heard that she never backed down even when facing Ryuuen.

He just found out now.

She may be more fragile than imagined.

but.

These things still have to wait until Monday to judge.

I really hope she can adjust herself.

Nine p.m.

After washing up, Hikigaya lay on the bed, scrolling through her phone, and couldn't help but click on Ichinose's profile picture.

But thinking about it, there seems to be nothing to say.

After all, with Ichinose's social circle, many people must be concerned about her situation.

Even if each person only replies for ten seconds, I am afraid that I will spend several hours a day on socializing.

This must be a kind of pressure invisibly.

At this time, it's better not to add any more pressure to Ichinose.

"beep."

Just then the doorbell rang.

Hikigaya walked to the entrance and observed through the peephole that it was Himeno Yuki who opened the door. Anyway, he was used to it.

Otherwise, I'm afraid this girl will call directly or keep pressing the bell.

"What's the matter?"

"Get out of the way, it's a little cold.

Himeno Yuki pushed lightly, but Hikigaya had already learned to get out of the way, and he couldn't stop this guy even if he wanted to.

Hikigaya followed her back to the bedroom and watched Himeno Yuki unceremoniously sit on his bed.

Hikigaya asked helplessly:

"So, what's the matter?"

Himeno Yuki took out the gift box from her pocket and threw it directly over.

"Twice the return gift."

Hikigaya answered in a panic, a little speechless:

"It's Chocolate again."

"What do you mean again?"

Himeno Yuki raised her eyebrows, and then reacted: "Sakura and the others also gave them to you?"

"That's right"

"Fine."

Anyway, there is no need to take Sakura Airi seriously, Himeno Yuki sighed and said:

"Seriously, what do you think we should do about Ichinose?"

Hikigaya placed the chocolate on the table.

Even Himeno Yuki is also worried about Ichinose's situation.

"Does she really have a cold?"

"yes."

Himeno Yuki also sighed: "However, I feel a little strange. She was fine yesterday, but why did she suddenly catch a cold today.

Hikigaya sighed weakly.

Although he used to pretend to be sick and ask for leave whenever he got up late, he could only ask for leave verbally.

Although he felt that there were always times when he felt down and didn't want to go to class, it didn't matter even if he escaped.

But no matter what.

Ichinose wouldn't deliberately catch a cold to ask for leave...

This is no longer an escape, but a complete collapse.

After thinking about this.

Hikigaya couldn't help but touch his fist. .
