"Oh, that's so annoying..."
Sighing is said to elude happiness, but he can't control it now, he didn't sleep well last night.
It wasn't Chabashira-sensei or Horikita. Although the behavior of these two people made him a little uneasy, it wasn't so serious that he couldn't sleep.
The main reason is Ayanokōji... No, to be precise, it must be Haruno.
Yesterday, Chabashira-sensei called him to the tutoring room, and Hikigaya suddenly saw Ayanokouji's grades, which further confirmed that this guy was probably the mysterious student Haruno mentioned.
Initially, Hikigaya planned to pretend to be a fool all the time, but after returning to the dorm, after careful consideration, he realized that this was wrong.
You should know that he and Ayanokouji were called by a radio notification. With Haruno's insight, she would definitely understand that Hikigaya already knew the truth.
No way, Hikigaya thought that instead of being settled by Haruno, he might as well take the lead and sent a text message like "Is this Ayanokouji?".
But until the morning the displayed status is not read.
... something is wrong?
Hikigaya couldn't help but worry: he wanted to call and ask, but then he thought that the first lesson would be math, so by then he would already know.
He came to the classroom with an uneasy feeling, and as soon as he entered the door, he felt several glances.
This was something Hikigaya had never received before, probably because of what happened to Karuizawa yesterday.
But that's okay, just ignore it.
"Good morning, Hikigaya-kun."
"...?"
As soon as Hikigaya sat down, Matsushita at the next table greeted him as usual.
Hey, why is this girl okay?
According to normal development, shouldn't it be like ignoring him and never communicating in the future?
"What happened?" Matsushita looked at him strangely, "Why are you looking at me like that, is there something on my face?"
"Is it… really good to talk to me?" Hikigaya reminded her politely.
- What? How about talking to you... oh you what happened yesterday?
No no. Why isn't everything going the way he expected?
Why isn't Karuizawa answering?
On the contrary, her friend Shinohara's reaction was still relatively strong, she kept looking at him all the time, clearly expressing hostility.
Just as Hikigaya felt strange, Matsushita suddenly folded her arms and said something that shocked him.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Hikigaya-kun, Karuizawa didn't mean to scold you." She has always been so outspoken and often clashes with others, which gives us all a headache.
"...What?" Hikigaya was a little confused.
"So don't mess with her, okay?" Matsushita blinked sweetly.
"No, whatever you say, it doesn't matter..."
Hikigaya was confused again. it seems that not only did Matsushita not blame him, but she even begged for Karuizawa?
And I don't know if it was an illusion or not, Matsushita's attitude has always been strange, like she was afraid that Hikigaya would take revenge on Karuizawa.
What exactly is the situation? !
"Matsushita-san, did you misunderstand?" Hikigaya tried to explain, "I don't have the ability to take care of others, so I'll be lucky if they don't come and bother me."
"Indeed, you say that again.
Matsushita sighed and looked at him helplessly.
"Hikigaya-kun, it's okay if you act cowardly in front of others, but we're from the same middle school. I know everything about you."
"No, I said the student union thing was a misunderstanding."
Hikigaya shook his head helplessly as he remembered his middle school days. No wonder Matsushita had such a misunderstanding.
"Matsushita-san, I will take this opportunity to explain to you. It's true that I did some tricks behind the scenes to get Isshiki to become the student council president, but that's…"
"No, don't tell me, I already knew that," Matsushita interrupted Hikigaya.
- Did you already know? You know?
Hikigaya frowned, feeling that this girl had misunderstood again.
But Matsushita's answer was unexpected: "Is it because Isshiki's classmate was teased by other girls and deliberately made her a presidential candidate, hoping that she would be humiliated, and you helped Isshiki's classmate become president. So?"
"...It's right."
While some details weren't revealed, it was generally true, so she wasn't wrong.
But in that case, what exactly is Matsushita talking about?
"I'm talking about follow-up, follow-up," Matsushita's voice suddenly became a little flustered, "After Isshiki became president, more than 40 girls who intentionally set her up and wanted her to make a fool of herself were quickly punished by the school . Punishment, and the mastermind behind this incident is Hikigaya-kun!"
"You?!"
Suddenly, Hikigaya's eyes widened and he looked at Matsushita in surprise.
He never thought the other side would even know about it.
"...Well, it's really me, and it was I who suggested that the school punish these people in order to avoid such a situation in the future."
Hikigaya thought for a moment and decided to admit it, since there was no point in denying it anyway.
There is a big loophole in the Sobu student union election, meaning candidates only need 40 signatures from other students, not their own signatures, and they don't even need to apply themselves.
These people took advantage of this and successfully framed Isshiki.
By the way, Sobu's teachers are also irresponsible guys, this is a clear mistake in the school system, and Isshiki is a complete victim.
But in the face of Isshiki's request for help, these teachers pushed back and forth, saying they were powerless, and finally sent the ball to the maintenance department.
"That's wrong, Hikigaya-kun, didn't you say everything?" Matsushita suddenly smiled.
This gave Hikigaya a bad feeling.
"...what do you mean?"
"What you said is superficial, but do I know what's behind it?"
Matsushita deliberately lengthened her tone as if she wanted to tease Hikigaya, but seeing that the latter's face was becoming more and more gloomy, she immediately stopped doing it.
"Ahaha, don't make such terrible expressions," Matsushita laughed dryly, "I heard some inner stories, and I don't know if it's true or not…. Forget it, just treat me like a joke!"
"Nothing, tell me, I don't mind.
Seeing Matsushita's eyes narrow and refusing to answer, Hikigaya secretly sighed.
This girl seems to really know... Forget it, it doesn't matter.
"Well, if you don't mind, then let me speak."
In the meantime, it is better to clarify, and there is no need to cover up this kind of thing.
Hikigaya said with a deadpan expression, "If you mean that the Sobu School turned a blind eye to their mistakes and just wanted to get away with it until the matter was investigated by the Education Commission and she was fined a large amount of money to correct her mistakes..."
"Yes, I was the one who reported it."
