Hikigaya: "Then let's go."

Ikeyamauchi and Sudou all went to eat at the very edge of the restaurant, and seemed to have made a huge mistake. After all, all ordering services here use alarms to remind the waiters.

However, thanks to Sudou's mediation, nothing troublesome happened.

As soon as Hikigaya came in, he saw a few familiar faces.

Kamuro and her friends, as well as the little bald one seen before getting on the boat.

Obviously losing hair at a young age is still very painful, but Katsuragi doesn't seem to be in pain. He really has a strong heart.

When watching Hikigaya enter the restaurant, there was obviously a strange hostility coming from the people in Class A.

Kamuro looked at Hikigaya with some worry, but at this time, due to Class A's position, he was completely speechless.

Sakura sat down shakily, regretting entering this restaurant.

"Hachiman, I always feel like these people are hostile to us."

Sakura's voice was so small that almost no one except Hikigaya heard it.

"I feel it too... But most of the people here are new faces that I have never seen before. I shouldn't have caused any trouble, right?"

"Hachiman, you are not a troublemaker, I know that very well."

"Thank you Sakura, but the other party doesn't seem to think so."

Because Horikita and Kushida were coming later, Hikigaya and Sakura chose a four-person seat. Hikigaya and Sakura were sitting on the same side at this moment, and the distance was very ambiguous.

They pretended that they didn't feel anything, picked up the menu and started flipping through it.

However, at this time, a classmate who seemed to be from Class A spoke directly:

"I'm telling you, when will the students of Class D be able to eat in this kind of restaurant? It's not just you two, but also the three idiots who just came in. You have to watch the price, otherwise you have to stay and wash the dishes. of."

The classmate's words caused most of the people in the restaurant to burst into laughter. This also made Hikigaya more convinced that it was not his own feelings that were wrong. These people were clearly hostile to him and Sakura, no, they were obviously hostile to him.

'Is it possible that this is what Sakayanagi said? '

Although he knew that most of the classmates in Class A were unhappy with him, he didn't expect it to have reached this point.

Hikigaya ignored his words, but gently opened the menu. After a few glances, he said softly:

"Thank you for reminding me, but at this price, with my current points, I guess it won't have much impact even if I finish them."

It's not a lie. Although the prices in this restaurant are not cheap, Hikigaya does have a lot of points.

To be honest, it is meaningless just to save face. Hikigaya will not pretend to be big for these illusory things. He will choose to reply with only one purpose, and that is to get more information from their mouths. This is something that points cannot buy. s things.

The classmate just now got a little angry when he heard Hikigaya's answer and stood up immediately:

"You're just a student in Class D. Your points for a month are so pitiful. Why are you still pretending to be big? I really don't know that this guy Sakayanagi..."

"Okay Yahiko, don't provoke others for no reason."

"Katsuragi..."

From the beginning to the end, the man without a hair on his head has not stopped the graceful movements of his hands, until now.

After Yahiko heard Katsuragi's words, the hostility on his face seemed to disappear instantly, and he slowly sat down.

This also made Kamuro Masumi finally take a breath.

"Although it is vacation time now, points may be deducted due to attitude towards life, so maintaining a good attitude towards life is what a Class A student should do. Yahiko, you just said Didn't do it."

Yahiko lowered his head and responded in frustration:

"Yes..."

'You are really strict and cautious, Katsuragi?According to Sakayanagi, this guy can be considered the leader of Class A. '

It is impossible for two leaders to appear in a class. If this happens, it can only mean that Class A is still in a period of division.

The so-called Class A, Class A whose comprehensive strength exceeds the standard, is not absolutely invincible, because they do not need external enemies at all. Just internal fighting in the class will expose huge problems.

The premise is that the Katsuragi in front of him must have the same strength as Sakayanagi.

Hikigaya now thinks about it, that guy Sakayanagi is really crazy. Not only the acquaintance with him in the library, the acquaintance in the park, the meeting on the rooftop, and finally the appearance in the swimming pool, almost everything happened from the same time. It was planned from the beginning, but even now, Hikigaya Hachiman still can't understand what this girl is going to do next. Even if he doesn't take this exam, this terrifying feeling has never gone away.

What a monster.

While Hikigaya was thinking like this, Katsuragi stood up slowly and came to sit opposite Hikigaya.

"First-year Class A, Katsuragi."

"First-year Class D, Hikigaya."

Katsuragi nodded with satisfaction, then set his eyes on the girl.

The girl felt Katsuragi's gaze and began to hesitate:

"One...first year Class D, Sakura."

Katsuragi nodded in approval again. Although the person he came to negotiate with this time was not Sakura, as the leader of Class A, he had the right to give every student an equal introduction, and...Sakura Airi would definitely not Simple.

She is the only known member of the student council in the entire first year.

Although Katsuragi didn't know why she was able to enter the student union, since she was able to enter the student union of Nagumo Masaru and Horikita Gakuen, she must not be a simple person.

On the other side, Kamuro deliberately changed seats with her friend. If she listened carefully here, she might be able to hear the conversation between the two parties.

Hikigaya: "The deliberate provocation was probably your instigation."

Although Yahiko's provocation just now was stopped by Katsuragi, it was also instigated by Katsuragi, and Hikigaya knew this very well.

"Yes, it is indeed as shown in the investigation. You are really frighteningly sharp."

"Are you praising yourself?"

"No, I'm just talking about you, although I think it's good to be cautious."

Hikigaya really doesn't want to deal with this kind of guy. Not only is he mentally tortured, but he also has to think through the other person's perspective when thinking.

Otherwise, you will instantly fall into a disadvantage.

"Let's get straight to the point. Sakayanagi did not participate in this cruise. The reason is simple: her health."

Hikigaya nodded, and then asked a question that even Katsuragi was stunned.

"I said, are you sure Sakayanagi is not on board?"

"....unconfirmed."

After all, there was no specific head count during the gathering, but Sakayanagi was indeed not in the team.

Katsuragi: "You reacted really quickly, but it's a pity that whether Sakayanagi is on the ship or not this time, she can't protect you."

Hikigaya didn't speak, just silent.

Katsuragi: "The people in Class A can be better and have a bigger gap with you, but every time Sakayanagi did it for you, Class A lost a huge amount of points, even at the risk of messing up the situation, and now Class A has arrived The limits of endurance."

Hikigaya: "I don't think I have any grudge against you."

Katsuragi nodded, he was not an ignorant person.

"It's true that you didn't do anything to us, and I don't have any ill intentions towards you, but you have violated the interests of Class A. I can control myself, but I can't control other people in Class A, especially Sakayanagi. Most of the members of the faction hate you with all their heart."

Hikigaya was a little speechless. He didn't have any enmity with Class A. It was just eating, sleeping and going to class every day that made them hate him. This school was really rotten.

Katsuragi: "Sakayanagi cannot protect you forever, unless you are a member of Class A. Unfortunately, you are only from other classes, even the weakest Class D."

Hikigaya nodded, there was no denying this.

Katsuragi: "So, be prepared. You must have noticed that this luxury cruise vacation is definitely not as simple as a vacation."

Hearing Katsuragi's words, Hikigaya just nodded slightly, while Sakura on the side looked shocked.

After all, the ship's destination is an island with a school boarding system.

Therefore, there may be some weird assessments.

Katsuragi stood up: "That's all I have to say, I look forward to fighting you."

'First we became enemies with Class C, and now we've become enemies with Class A. The alliance with Class B has not yet been reached. It's really troublesome. '

"Sooner or later, I will climb into Class A."

The moment Katsuragi turned around and left, a familiar voice came from outside the door.

The black-haired girl put on a dress and was walking towards here step by step with wet hair.

Behind him, of course, is the little angel Kushida Kikyo, whom everyone knows.

Katsuragi: "Horikita Suzune? Is that guy's sister?"

Horikita is really a strange person. Her momentum is always strong and her confidence is always high.

But at times like this, it's not a bad thing.

"That's right, no matter what test comes next, we will never lose."

"I hope you can remember this until the end of the exam."

Katsuragi didn't seem to want to say anything more, he just walked slowly back to his seat and continued to cut the steak elegantly.

Horikita had already sat down, but Kushida was still trying to smooth things over for everyone. Under Horikita's angelic smile and Katsuragi's order, everyone sitting in the restaurant began to continue eating.

Horikita: "Just leaving for a while caused so much trouble. How did you do that?"

Hikigaya: "Idiot, it was the other party who came to stir up trouble."

Kushida: "Well, forget it, Hikigaya-san didn't do it on purpose, right?"

After hearing Kushida's words, Horikita seemed to gradually become calmer and said:

"So, what happened?"

Hikigaya glanced at Sakura next to him, and then decided not to tell the two people in front of him about Sakayanagi for the time being.

"Nothing, just a brief chat."

Horikita saw that he couldn't ask anything from Hikigaya, so he turned his sharp eyes to Sakura.

"what happened?"

She repeated what she just said, but it made people feel murderous, as expected of Horikita Suzune.

Sakura: "I...I...I don't know."

Although this level of lying is too poor, well done Sakura.

"Let's not talk about it for now. By the way, your relationship has actually improved?"

Hikigaya tried to change the topic, but he didn't think of this sentence and immediately fell silent.

Topic killer, well deserved.

Kushida laughed twice and immediately started to save the situation:

"My relationship with Horikita-san has always been good, right?"

When Horikita heard Kushida's words and looked at that angelic smile, he reluctantly responded:

"right..."

'No matter how you look at it, you are making things difficult for yourself. Horikita, your level of lying is worse than Sakura-san. '

Although I don't know what happened between the two of them, it is obvious that continuing to ask will only make the atmosphere more embarrassing. At this time, the two fools Chi and Yamauchi are especially important.

Kushida: "By the way, where did Sudou and the others go?"

As soon as they finished speaking, the three people who had already finished their meal walked out from behind them.

Several people just stood there staring at each other, and then Sudou was the first to break the silent atmosphere.

"You eat slowly when we are full."

With his terrifying power, he just dragged the two of them away from here.

Yamauchi cried while being dragged by Sudou:

"Uuuuuuuuuuah, I really want to be surrounded by girls and eat."

Chi: "Just now, we missed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. What a pity, what a pity!"

Sudou sped up and decided to bring the two embarrassing guys back to the deck as soon as possible.

And in my heart, I am really thinking: Brother, I can only help you so far.

Hikigaya is in a situation that I have never imagined in my life.

Since there were only seats left on one side, Horikita and Kushida sat on the other side of Hikigaya and Sakura, and the atmosphere seemed extremely awkward.

Hikigaya: "I said, you should have discovered it by now, this vacation."

'I'm not that bad at communicating when I think of such a topic at this time...'

Kushida was very pleased and said with excited eyes:

"what?!"

Horikita also said with some confusion: "What did you find?"

Hikigaya: "That's right, this vacation is definitely not as simple as imagined."

Horikita seemed to suddenly become interested. Although there was no change on the surface, the speed of her heartbeat definitely did not deceive her.

"You mean, this cruise vacation was also planned by the school."

Hikigaya: "If I guess correctly, the destination of this trip is a small island in the south."

Kushida nodded and fixed his gaze on the boy.

Hikigaya: "According to the nature of this school, the content of the exam will probably be announced the moment we arrive there. But what do you think the content of the exam will be on an isolated island?"

Sakura: "Island...survival on an island?"

Sakura's words made the two women tremble.

Horikita: "In other words, the guy just now expected that there would be an exam."

The person Horikita was talking about was Katsuragi, and he hoped that Horikita would remember this confidence until the end of the exam. He undoubtedly believed that Class A would win this exam.

Hikigaya: "Although it's nonsense, I guess I'm right..."

Kushida: "We still have time to prepare before we reach that isolated island. Even if the content of the exam is not about surviving alone, we can also let the students be mentally prepared first."

Hikigaya nodded. As for today's Class D, it is indeed necessary to make these mental preparations in advance. After all, whether it is comprehensive ability or other abilities, although Class D has made progress, it still has huge differences compared to other classes. gap.

Besides, their opponent this time is not just Class C.

Hikigaya: "This kind of thing will trouble you, Kushida."

Kushida nodded and accepted the commission.

Horikita: "It will take a few more days before we reach that isolated island. Are you sure the school won't do anything these days!?"

Hikigaya: "I can't be sure about this, but...since it's here, we can only welcome it, right?"

Horikita nodded. It would be best to take a good rest for at least the remaining few days.

As for today, she obviously felt that her physical strength was a little weak and her brain was a little hot.

Hikigaya: "In short, Class D will become enemies with several classes this time, so we must be prepared for this."

Horikita: "Are you finally aiming to be promoted to Class A?"

Hikigaya scratched his head and replied very calmly: "No, I still want to stay in bed if possible, but sometimes, I don't want to lose too ugly. Maybe this is... the so-called dignity of a man ."

Horikita covered his head and said helplessly: "It's really not convincing at all, it's just a twisted character."

Sakura also laughed: "After all, this is the kind of person Hachiman is."

Chapter 83 The Tyrant's Drama

Most of the time, a person is an independent individual.

Except for the time spent communicating with others, almost most of it is spent repenting of the past and looking forward to the future.

No matter how the years change, how the age increases, no matter what the future or the past holds, this feeling of being unable to let go will only get stronger and stronger until I can no longer control it.

Even if you are lying on the bed, or looking at the same face as ten years ago, the thoughts in your mind are still the same as before, going back and forth.

Sae Chabashira was sitting alone on the deck of the cruise ship at the moment, waiting for the bitter tea to enter his throat, but his expression still did not change.

All the time, I am thinking about what happened ten years ago.

But if I could go back to that time, would I change that decision?

Sure enough, she still couldn't come to a conclusion.

As the head teacher of Class D in Toyu School, Sae Chabashira usually has a cold face, as if nothing can arouse her fighting spirit. Even in front of her colleagues, she still maintains a sense of distance.

What kind of secret is hidden under that cold face...

"You came."

"After all, there is no reason to refuse."

The young man appeared behind the uniformed woman, but she didn't feel the slightest surprise, as if this was all part of her plan.

He just sat down calmly and did not drink the tea handed to him by the uniformed woman.

"That's good stuff."

"Sorry, I'm not very interested in this kind of thing, maybe because I'm not old enough."

Feeling Chabashira Sae's fierce gaze, the young man immediately retracted his words.

"So, what is your purpose in finding me?"

"You should have realized that this luxury cruise is not just a vacation."

Hikigaya nodded and didn't say much.

The woman picked up a pack of cigarettes, lit one in a familiar manner, and said calmly:

"Since I became the head teacher of Class D, Class D has never surpassed any other class. Maybe it's my problem, or maybe there is a huge gap in the overall quality of the students in Class D compared to other classes."

"This is the cruelty of Dongyu School. No matter how much I want to climb up, the possibility becomes increasingly illusory given the huge gap in strength."

Hikigaya nodded, agreeing with Chabashira's statement.

Efforts may work, but most of the time they are useless.

Working hard can be a useful tool to comfort yourself after failure, but it also wears away your resilience again and again.

Time and time again, I felt that I still had hope, but failed again and again, and was criticized in the end. Instead of accepting my failure from the beginning, Chabashira Sae spent the past ten years in this kind of self-doubt. .

But, this time...

Chabashira Sae took another puff of cigarette, as if she was spitting out all her thoughts like mist.

"You, through your own efforts, have already caught up with Class C."

Sae Chabashira has never given any help to Class D. She doesn't know where she started, but she has become the most impersonal teacher in the school and the teacher who is most alienated from the students. It seems that no one can clearly see how many secrets she hides. But only she knows.

All she has hidden in her body are scars from the past, wounds that cannot be healed, and regrets after countless failed expectations.

Hikigaya never looked at Sae Chabashira from beginning to end, but just focused his eyes on the teacup: "Even so, it's just their efforts and has nothing to do with me."

Sae Chabashira focused her gaze on his eyes, as if those sharp eyes could penetrate everything.

But at this time, she couldn't see a trace of the boy's lies.

In his heart, he just thinks that all this has nothing to do with him. Even though he helped Sudou, helped Sakura, and helped Class D, it still had nothing to do with him. He was just a marginal character in the class. , has not changed.

Chabashira smiled lightly, and then shook his head gently.

"If you were born ten years earlier, would everything be different?"

Hikigaya also smiled, remembering that his mentor also said this to him.

"However, even if I were born ten years earlier, I would not marry you."

Feeling Chabashira's sharp gaze, Hikigaya immediately retracted his childish expression.

"Even if you haven't noticed it yourself, you should have discovered that everyone around you is changing itself at an extremely fast speed."

Hikigaya shook his head again and said very calmly:

"No, this is not because of my existence, it is because they are such outstanding people, and they will change only because of their own choices."

Perhaps there was no point in continuing to be stubborn with the young man in front of him.

One day, everyone will find out what will happen to the class without him, and he himself will also find out what he has brought to this class D, which has no hope.

He has no amazing strength. Whether it is physical fitness or grades, he is just above average in the class, but it is enough to attract the attention of the leaders of the three ABC classes.

"So teacher, you didn't come to me just to tell me this."

Saji Chabashira put his hands around his chest, took a deep puff of cigarette, and then completely smoked the cigarette on the table until it was extinguished.

"Yes, you have arrived at a place parallel to Class C. This is a place that Class D can never reach in the history of my teaching. Moreover, with the existence of Kogenji, Horikita, Hirata, Kushida and others, I believe Class D will definitely not stay at the bottom this time."

"Maybe it's time for me to change. If I keep being a bystander, I will envy the authorities."

Hikigaya was a little confused as to the meaning of what Chabashira-sensei said.

"According to school rules, students and teachers cannot form a mutually supportive relationship, but every teacher in his own class will favor the students in his own class."

Although it goes against the school rules, as long as you don't get caught and don't do anything too aggressive, there won't be any problems. This is the unspoken rule of this school.

"Chabashira-sensei, if you want to truly advance your class to a higher level, the best thing to do is to integrate into the class, not like this."

Hikigaya really couldn't bear to listen. After all, this guy seemed to want to help him, but he seemed to be very dishonest.

Sae Chabashira turned her head, unable to see any expression on her face. After two seconds passed, she finally smiled:

"One day I will integrate into this class, but maybe it shouldn't be now."

"Work hard and aim to defeat Class C. I will consider your proposal."

Under the light laughter, Chabashira Sae gradually moved away.

Until the end, Hikigaya Hachiman still did not understand what Chabashira Sae meant.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

It was the last day before going to the island. It was obvious that everyone in the previous few days was taking a good rest and not doing too many activities. It was only on this last day that Hikigaya saw Horikita Suzune on the deck.

"Horikita..."

"Hikigaya?"

"You don't look too good..."

Horikita seemed a little surprised that the boy discovered her situation, and said calmly:

"The last two days were worse than today, but fortunately I have almost recovered."

"That's good."

Because she realized that the exam was coming soon, and secondly, she felt that her body seemed very heavy, Horikita Suzune had been resting in her room for the past few days. Fortunately, after these two days of cultivation, she finally felt a lot better. .

Although my mind is still a little dizzy sometimes, it has gotten much better and my body has slowly regained its strength.

Dusk has arrived, and the sun's rays fall on their cheeks. They feel the sea breeze blowing by, and their hair tips float gently in the wind.

Hikigaya was the first to sit on the stool on the deck. Maybe it was dinner time, but there were very few people staying on the deck.

Horikita Suzune's eyes were still so determined, even if she didn't speak, you could feel that what she was going to say was, 'No matter what the content of tomorrow's exam is, I will win. '

Hikigaya would never have such a desire to win, but it was not impossible to understand Horikita Suzune's thoughts.

After all, no one wants to fail, at least everyone in this school is moving towards a goal.

Horikita soon sat next to Hikigaya and asked softly:

"What are your plans for this exam?"

"I'm not that powerful. Following your plan is my best plan."

While the two were communicating, Ryuuen, the leader of Class C, and Albert, a strong man about two meters tall, slowly walked up to them.

Ryuuen sat next to Hikigaya calmly and said:

"Using Sakura Airi to enter the student union to check the surveillance, instigating Takeru Suto to self-harm so that the student union can take the lead, and then rely on the evidence in hand to kill with one strike, leaving no room for error."

"In the end, he guided the three Ishizakis to follow him after class, and finally became the victim directly through the trap prepared in advance. In the end, the three Ishizakis dropped out of school, and Class C was deducted 300 class points. Class D did not suffer any losses. It was a good Hikigaya Hachiman."

There was no trace of ferocity in Ryuuen's expression, as if everything was said so calmly, as if it had nothing to do with him, the tyrant.

Hikigaya was not frightened by the sight of Ryuuen in front of him, but said softly: "In other words, he was framed, looked for evidence, was followed, and escaped with his life."

Ryuuen: "Hahahahaha, okay, okay. Although I have warned those three idiots Ishizaki a long time ago, it's a pity that idiots are idiots."

Page 63

Playvolume00:00/00:00TruvidfullScreen

"Actually, they don't have to drop out of school. Even if they are deducted [-] points, they will earn it back sooner or later. It's a pity..."

Hikigaya's words undoubtedly hurt Ryuuen's heart, but Ryuuen would not express it.

"So, you admit that this was all part of your plan."

There was no doubt that Ryuuen was searching for information every moment in his words, but Hikigaya spread his hands, shook his head and said calmly:

"No, I was just a bystander from the beginning to the end. Whether it was Sudou or Sakura, I was just a bystander. I didn't need to think about it so much. It was just that it was not until the end that I was forced into the situation. I'm sorry for the three Ishizakis who dropped out of school."

Although there was no trace of apology on his expression, there was certainly no trace of apology in his heart. After all, he was the victim.

Ryuuen smiled slightly: "What a perverted guy, Hikigaya. If everything is based on your heart and everything is decided at that time, then you are no different from a monster."

Hikigaya: "Thank you for the compliment, but I am not a monster. There is someone else who is the real monster."

Thinking of the silver-haired goblin from Class A in the first year, with his calm smile and powerful aura, Hikigaya knew that that guy was the real monster, and he might be able to control someone without even realizing it. thoughts and actions, and even lose oneself.

Ryuuen left his seat, put his hands in his pockets and prepared to leave with a fierce look on his face, but was stopped by Horikita.

"Ryuuen, we will win this exam. The position in Class C will belong to us after this exam."

Ryuuen seemed a little surprised that Horikita knew this, but since the two of them were already sitting here chatting, it was normal to know.

He put away his surprised expression and turned around slowly.

"No, you will completely fall into Class D in this exam. What will greet you is endless darkness and the hope that you will never be able to turn around."

Ryuuen's words were extremely arrogant. Maybe he had always been like this and never changed. If he was an opponent who couldn't even feed a tyrant, then why would he be called a tyrant?

Long Yuan: "You will take action this time, right?"

Hikigaya: "After all, I'm not a powerful person, so it doesn't matter whether I take action or not. But if you're surviving on an island, you can pay attention to that guy from Kogenji. I feel like he's still an ape in this life."

Long Yuan made a gesture of licking blood with the tip of a knife, and said calmly:

"Don't worry, no matter who it is, as long as it blocks my way, I will deal with it."

"That would be the best."

Hikigaya doesn't have the fighting spirit of Ryuuen and Horikita in his eyes. All he can do from beginning to end is to do his part, at least that's how it seems now.

"Stay tuned."

"Dragon Garden!"

On the deck, a girl with dark blue short hair suddenly called out his name, causing Hikigaya and Horikita to turn their eyes away, except Ryuuen, who seemed to have expected it.

"Ibuki."

"I have something to look for you."

Ibuki just staggered up to two men who were more than a head taller than her, looking very arrogant.

'Hey, did you learn this confidence from Horikita?I really look forward to seeing you and Horikita arguing. '

Hikigaya was made to rush straight in front of these two people by himself. Hikigaya felt a twinge of anger in his heart, but this guy named Ibuki just walked over calmly.

Ryuuen did not resist at all. He directly held Ibuki into his arms with his big hands, put on an indifferent smile and said:

"Miss me?"

Ibuki's anger suddenly emerged, which can be given full ten points for her acting skills. At the same time, her slender hand suddenly pushed away Ryuuen's thick hand and shouted:

"roll!"

Ibuki distanced herself from Ryuuen, the anger on her face remained the same, and the words on her lips did not give her any dignity at all.

"I can't stand what you've done, whether it's just trying to win over this guy."

Hikigaya was a little creeped out by Ibuki pointing at him viciously.

"You still insist on going your own way, and let the three of Ishizaki drop out of school in vain, and also lose [-] points in the class. Our class is now on the same level as Class D. I can't stand you anymore!"

As Ibuki said this, his anger seemed to surge out immediately, swallowing Ryuuen whole, and he might even move his hands and feet at the next moment. Horikita also believed it.

Therefore, Horikita simply looked away and stopped looking at them, but Hikigaya Hachiman never looked away.

Horikita also noticed that Hikigaya's eyes remained on the two of them, and said softly:

"Hikigaya, isn't it a little bad to keep staring?"

Hikigaya responded in a very weak voice: "This is a good show, before the exam starts."

Horikita looked at the guy's expectant expression, sighed helplessly, and drank the drink in his hand.

At this moment, hearing all kinds of unpleasant words from Ibuki rushing into his ears, Ryuuen smiled very generously.

"Okay, okay, let's talk about the rest in my room, just the two of us."

Perhaps because he could no longer avoid being provoked by Ryuuen, Ibuki went over and punched him. Although they had learned fighting skills, for Ryuuen and Albert, the power of a woman and the power of a man were simply different. Different places.

Ibuki's fist was stopped just an inch before Ryuuen.

Albert's palm stayed in front of Ryuuen's eyes. Even Ibuki's hard blow did not make Albert's defense retreat even one millimeter, and... Ryuuen did not blink from beginning to end, as if he just It's like that prey.

Facing the instinct of living creatures to such an extent, Long Yuan is naturally an opponent that cannot be underestimated. This is the absolute calmness that only a hunting dog returning from a fight in the forest can show.

Hikigaya took in all this, but his expression remained calm.

He knew that he couldn't be like Ryuuen. If he was attacked, he would instinctively retreat, defend, blink, etc.

However, they are different.

Is this Ryuuen's strength, or is he putting together a well-thought-out show?

Ibuki's movement was completely stopped by Albert, and Ibuki seemed to be a little angry and asked:

"Albert, do you really think this is okay?!"

Albert did not speak, and Ibuki also put away his fists and looked directly at the two of them with vicious eyes.

"It seems that you have been tamed by Long Yuan."

Ryuuen put on a disdainful expression, as if he didn't want to get entangled with Ibuki in front of him anymore, and slowly passed in front of Hikigaya and Horikita.

"Stop Long Yuan! I haven't finished speaking yet."

Ibuki's eyes burst out with infinite anger, and he walked towards Ryuuen, but was stopped directly by Albert, who strangled his neck tightly and threw him aside.

Although it was only a slight throw, the violent impact still caused Ibuki to hit the iron pole on the deck, making a loud noise.

Horikita seemed unable to sit still and ran directly to Ibuki's side.

Hikigaya just watched, just watched.

'It's really interesting...but it seems to be missing a bit of soul. Now it's time...to verify everything. '

"Dragon Garden."

Hikigaya's voice made Ryuuen stop in his tracks, and also shocked both Horikita and Ibuki.

What does this guy want to do?

Ryuuen turned around and walked slowly in front of Hikigaya, finally showing a faint smile.

"Hikigaya, what's wrong?"

Hikigaya didn't say anything, just stretched out his fist, and slowly extended it to Ryuuen's hand, chest, face...

One foot, one inch, one millimeter.

There was no speed at all, just like a punch that was deliberately slowed down, which made everyone present a little puzzled.

What on earth does he want to do?

At the last moment, Hikigaya's fist accelerated in an instant. Albert could not catch up and returned to Ryuuen's side, and Ryuuen had been putting his hands in his pockets. At this time, it was too late to resist.

Finally, Hikigaya's fist stopped in front of Ryuuen's eyelashes.

After a brief second, Ryūen did not defend himself and retreated, his hands still in his pockets, and the smile on his face never disappeared.

However, his eyes couldn't stop blinking.

Hikigaya seemed to have gotten the answer he wanted and turned his body.

"never mind."

After Long Yuan was stunned for a second, he left with a smile on his face.

Albert followed closely behind the tyrant and slowly left.

They thought their plan had been successful, but they didn't know that the young man had seen through their ruse.

Horikita: "Are you okay?"

Ibuki slapped away Horikita's extended hand and said angrily:

"Stop meddling in other people's business, guys from Class D."

Without much communication, Ibuki just got up again and left slowly.

All the while, Hikigaya never left his chair.

Horikita returned to his chair, seemingly after seeing the appearance of Class C, he said very calmly:

"It seems that Class C will split up soon. We know that they will fall to Class D sooner or later without our efforts."

Obviously, Horikita had been completely misled by the drama arranged by Ryuuen in front of him. Indeed, if it hadn't been for the last act, Hikigaya would not have been able to confirm whether it was true or false.

However, now he has the answer.

If even a class like Class D can continue to operate, then with higher overall strength and leaders, it is impossible for a class to split. Of course, it is not completely impossible, as long as...

If the leader Ryuuen completely loses the majesty of the tyrant, then the so-called Class C will be completely divided overnight, and will eventually become the last class. Of course, in this case, it must also be based on the premise that the tyrant will lose. under.

Chapter 84 Real thing, does this relationship really exist?

The sky and the earth changed color, and after the heavy rain, the air in the sea became especially clean and thorough. The young man stood alone on the deck, feeling this rare peace.

Following the route, we will arrive at the island tomorrow, but Hikigaya doesn't know exactly what will happen on that island.

If it were just a simple exam, it probably wouldn't be able to meet the purpose of this school's exam.

Hikigaya put his hands on the iron pole and supported his chin. At this moment, he closed his eyes tightly and did not notice that the pink-haired girl had walked behind him.

"Hachi...Hachiman."

"Sakura?"

Hikigaya did not turn around, but continued his actions.

The girl just walked forward slowly and clasped her hands on the railing. The two of them just looked at the starry sky at night over the sea, which was so brilliant on the night after the rain.

Sakura's behavior was obviously a little nervous, and she was completely without her usual relaxation. This was definitely not common when she was getting along with her.

Hikigaya glanced at Sakura briefly, waiting for her question.

Sakura grasped the railing with both hands and tightened her strength again, as if to encourage herself and asked:

"Hachiman, what are you doing here alone?"

"I didn't do anything, just look at the stars. After all, you can't see such a bright night sky in Tokyo, which makes you feel like you are in a dream."

It's not a lie. Even if he once lived in Chiba, he had never seen such a starry sky on any night. Just raising his head slightly made him fall deeply into it. Maybe... only Van Gogh's Only the starry sky can compare with it.

"Is that so..."

Sakura raised her head and was attracted by the stars in the sky. A happy smile spread calmly on her face.

"So beautiful..."

Hikigaya put his eyes on the girl's face, seeing that she was completely immersed in the stars at night, and smiled lightly.

"Yeah, it's really beautiful."

"yes..."

The two of them were silent until Sakura finally brought her thoughts back to reality.

"Hachiman, are you ready for tomorrow's exam?"

"Although people prepare accordingly before dealing with trouble, in fact most preparations have no effect."

Familiar answer, familiar way, Sakura Airi just smiled lightly this time, then raised her head and looked at the starry sky.

"That's all nonsense, Hachiman. You obviously knew that you wouldn't have been able to deal with Sudou's accusation if you weren't prepared at the time."

Listening to the girl exposing his words so ruthlessly, Hikigaya scratched his head in embarrassment for a moment and said nothing.

Sakura placed her gentle eyes on Hikigaya. After being purified by the starry sky, her sight seemed to become deeper, so clear without any impurities.

"Hachiman, you are obviously the gentlest person in the world, but you pretend to know nothing. But this way of deceiving yourself will not last long."

Feeling Sakura's deep gaze, Hikigaya seemed to be infected for a moment, but just stayed in place blankly.

"At that time, it was precisely because of your advance preparation that my photos were not exposed, and I did not let my classmates think that I was a casual person. At that time... I was really grateful to you. That feeling, until Now I can't forget it."

Hikigaya scratched his head, no longer focusing on Sakura, and pretended to be calm and said:

"I just did what I should do. If it were Hirata and the others, they wouldn't expose you. I'm not as great or as gentle as you said."

"But, it was you who stood in front of me at that time. Such lies are useless. Reality is reality, right Hachiman."

It was undeniable that there was nothing wrong with everything Sakura Airi said, because the past had happened and could not be changed, and the boy standing in front of her at that time was herself.

Although he never thought that she should repay him in this way, he just did what everyone would do, but Sakura didn't think so.

Hikigaya nodded, just nodding.

Sakura Airi still had that gentle smile, slowly facing the boy, showing her crimson color, and then gently held his hands.

The coldness in his hands seemed to be driven away in an instant, leaving only the warmth that he had never felt before. This move also made Hikigaya slightly stunned.

"Hachiman, right now I can't communicate normally with my classmates, and I can't help you with anything, but one day in the future, I will definitely help you, definitely."

Although Hikigaya Hachiman didn't know why the girl would make such an agreement with someone like him who was nothing, after all, compared to him, both Hirata and Yukimura were much better than him, and he was just an ordinary person. People, but the girl's deep emotions did indeed touch the boy's heart.

He nodded again and made this agreement with the girl on the starry night.

"Airi..."

The boy told her name calmly, without any expression on his face, but it made the girl's face become even scarier, as if a breath of air was going to hit her head and explode.

Sakura, who had never experienced such a scene before, became even more hesitant and unable to say a word.

"I know you are very dependent on me now. I can feel that maybe that scary guy is right (Yangno). This kind of relationship is wrong, and I have also fallen into this kind of wrong relationship. , so... I hope, Airi, you can truly grow up, walk your own path, and fulfill your heart's wishes. Only in this way can you be a real Tokyo idol and the real Sakura Airi."

The girl wanted to give a hesitant answer, but found that she could not speak at all. If she spoke the words now, she would not be able to stop.

Therefore, she just stared at the boy closely with her red cheeks and eyes full of light.

"Before that, you can come to me if you encounter difficulties."

Hikigaya himself was not shy about helping the girl in front of him if he could do so.

Sakura nodded again, as if everything was unspoken.

A gratified smile slowly unfolded under that beautiful face. Before the girl realized that she had grasped Hikigaya's big hand, she didn't give him any chance to escape.

[Service Club...]

[There was obviously some envy in Yuigahama's eyes, but his words were full of questions: "Is this the future Aqi? It doesn't feel so twisted anymore."]

[Hikigaya: "Idiot, I won't be twisted now..."]

[Yukikinoshita pressed her temples and said calmly behind the smile: "Hikigaya-kun, you have to think carefully before you say this."]

[Isshiki also moved closer to Hikigaya, pointing and saying: "Others don't know, I only know that you started seducing girls again, senior."]

[Hearing what Isshiki said, Yuigahama and Yukinoshita were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other as if they had completed psychological communication. ]

[Yukishita: "Hikigaya-kun, you have to explain why you will be like this in the future."]

[Obviously Yuigahama did not stand on Hikigaya's side this time, but said with a bad smile: "Yes, yes, isn't Hikigaya supposed to be a person who is indifferent to emotions when he grows up?"]

[Hikigaya complained with a look of helplessness: "They say it's me from the future. Even if you ask me now, I don't know how to tell you, and... I'm a human, not a cat, idiot, I still have feelings."]

[As soon as he finished speaking, Hikigaya regretted saying this. The keyword "cat" was triggered. Yukinoshita Yukino seemed to have suddenly changed. He stared at Hikigaya with extremely angry eyes. valley. ]

['This guy has regarded all those who say something bad about cats as eternal enemies... What a terrible cat slave. ']

[Yuigahama also noticed something bad, and immediately pulled Aqi and said: "Mao Mao is super cute, right? How about we go see Mao Mao together after the holiday this week."]

[Hikigaya nodded quickly. Although he was still thinking that 'cats are really not very empathetic creatures', he was still very obedient when death was approaching. ]

[The young man said in agreement: "Yes, yes, Komachi seems to want a cat doll too. Let's go and have a look this week."]

[After hearing the words of the two people who reacted very quickly, Yukinoshita's angry mood slowly calmed down. Accidents always happen in various places. Miura Yuko, who obviously did not feel the murderous intention, has not noticed the problem at this moment. Regarding the seriousness of the situation, he just said very calmly: "I feel that cats are not as cute as dogs. After all, dogs are more clingy. How about Hayama let's go see the dogs together this week."]

[The terrifying pressure once again fell on everyone in the service club. Fortunately, Yishi quickly smoothed things over and said: "Cats are also very cute. Of course, everyone has their own preferences for radish and green vegetables, as long as you like them."]

[Finally, the coercion ended. It was the great Isshiki Iroha who rescued everyone here. Her greatness should be praised by future generations. Today's battle will be passed on in the service society forever until the society disappears completely. The 'Battle of Cats and Dogs' will be deeply engraved in the hearts of both of them. ]

[After Yukinoshita listened to Iroha's words, she also felt that she was too forced on others. After reconciling with herself, she seemed to have completely forgotten about Hikigaya. ]

[Cat＞Hikigaya]

[Ishiroha and Yuigahama Yui understand that this is a short time without fighting, and they also feel that this time is hard-won, and they will not continue the topic just now. ]

[In the first-year Class D, some people are still paying attention to the young boy Hikigaya Hachiman in front of them, such as Horikita Suzune. She knows that she has communicated with him in the video quite a lot, but she has not experienced it in person. She still couldn't detect where his magic power was, but she could only see her own changes in confusion and relief. Obviously, that kind of self was what her brother expected, and she finally understood this truth. ]

[And he is still changing the people in the class unknowingly. Just like Sakura Airi, many people in the class are paying attention to her, and Yamauchi is the most typical one. ]

[After completely seeing her appearance after taking off her glasses, he has become unable to extricate himself. There are strange things in his mind every day, but it is a pity that Sakura has always been wary of him, or she is absolutely Sense of distance. ]

[Most of their classmates are paying attention to the upcoming survival on the uninhabited island. Although they have just experienced those seven days, if they are asked to experience it again, they will not be willing to say anything. They have already experienced it in those seven days. After experiencing too many difficulties, whether it was the invasion of other classes or the internal strife in their own class, they did not want to try again. ]

[The sinister part of human nature is the most untestable. You never know whether the true face behind a person is a devil or an angel. ]

[A person who seems gentle may be a devil, and a person who seems difficult to communicate may be a kind person at heart. ]

[Sudo: "If I could go back to the first day of the exam, I would definitely not let that guy from Kogenji deduct thirty of our class points."]

[Yukimura was a little helpless, but he was still forced to accept the fact: "Forget it Sudou, you can't stop him."]

[Miyake Akito: "In short, our final result is good, and that is enough. That guy at Kogenji is not someone who can be controlled at all."]

[Wang Meiyu: "I think... I think, I think Miyake is right."]

[Kushida also began to play the role of the backbone, and said lightly: "Yes, yes, we were able to get No. 1 in the uninhabited island exam, and it will be the same again."]

[Hirata seemed to agree with Kushida's words. He simply spread his hands and said calmly: "As long as we unite as one, there is nothing we can't do, right?"]

[Karuizawa immediately echoed: "Yes, yes, Hirata is right, this school is nothing special. Look, we caught up immediately this semester, and it was even more powerful in the video. In an instant It jumped to the same level as Class C."]

[With everyone talking, the level of discussion in the class started to rise in an instant. Obviously, they have not yet realized the seriousness of the matter. Only the young man sitting in the corner of the classroom, expressionless at the moment, just looked at Looking at the video in front of him, and the young man who replaced him. ]

"What about Hikigaya and Sakura-san?"

A gentle female voice came from afar, and the girl who had just held Hikigaya's hands was instantly brought back to reality, and she put down her hands with some fear.

Obviously, she is still somewhat shy in front of outsiders. She and Kushida Horikita have known each other for about the same length of time, and she obviously prefers Horikita's side. Even though Horikita is arrogant, blind, confident and ruthless, She still prefers Horikita.

Kushida Kikyo, the all-rounder, always seemed to have a sense of distance. She couldn't explain why. Maybe it was a sixth sense unique to girls.

As expected, it was Kushida. She was slowly walking around the corner behind the deck, with that familiar smile on her face.

"It's so late, what are you doing?"

There was no trace of malice, but it instantly made the two of them blush. Apparently Sakura couldn't stand this atmosphere anymore, so she said directly to the two of them:

"I'm going back to my room first."

Then, he ran back in a hurry.

Kushida was obviously a little confused and continued to ask with a cute expression:

"So Hikigaya, you haven't told me what you are doing? Are you kissing secretly?"

Although he knew that the other party was making fun of him, Hikigaya still turned his head in a somewhat extreme manner and pretended to be calm and said:

"No...we are here, looking at the stars."

Hikigaya has never experienced this kind of situation. If it were a year ago, he would probably never have this kind of situation in his life. But now... it's like being caught in rape. Hikigaya doesn't know how to answer at all. .

No one would believe it when he looked at the stars, especially Kushida.

Without even thinking about it, she would immediately say something like, "You should make up a better excuse."

However, Kushida just smiled, his gentle smile, and then looked up at the stars.

"So that's it, I'm looking at the stars..."

This topic passed without too much teasing, and Hikigaya didn't expect it at all.

"The starry sky is really beautiful. I have never seen so many stars."

Hikigaya obviously hadn't recovered from the situation just now, but he still managed to say: "Me too..."

Kushida deliberately approached the boy and wrapped his arms around the boy with his huge arms. By the time he reacted, it was too late to break away.

Kushida didn't seem to care about this at all, but pointed his finger to the sky and said with great relief:

"Look at the stars, don't they look like us..."

"?"

"Everyone has an unknown appearance in his heart. Perhaps what others know about him is just a star on the surface, but there are countless stars behind him."

"What does it mean that people can never empathize with others? Or do you mean that people can never understand another person?"

Kushida smiled and nodded, wrapping his arms tighter, making Hikigaya's already red cheeks turn even redder.

"Yeah, yeah! As expected of Hikigaya! He knows all the truth."

"Since you said it's impossible for one person to understand another person forever, it means that no matter how I answer, it's only ninety percent."

Hikigaya was puzzled by her joy. After all, if one person can never understand another person, then this kind of relationship that cannot be called a real thing is sad.

The girl froze in place for a moment, then her cheerful smile disappeared, and her tightly wrapped arms slowly loosened, replaced by an extremely indifferent smile.

"You are right, but now you have perfect scores."

Hikigaya shook his head, admitting that he had not reached that level.

"There are so many stars in the sky. If you want to understand every star, it may take you a lifetime to do it. But...some people will still be like moths to a flame, familiar with, understand and accompany them, just like moon."

Kushida smiled slightly and said as if he was mocking himself:

"Are you talking about stars or people?"

"Who knows, maybe throughout your life, the person who knows you best is yourself. This is also a true portrayal of most people... But."

"but?"

Kushida raised his head and looked at the boy with some confusion.

"Sometimes, if you don't try, you can't know the outcome in advance. If that kind of relationship really exists in the world, if there is that kind of relationship where you know yourself as you know your enemy, and if it can really accommodate that kind of relationship without any lies, Then I will spend my whole life pursuing it."

A seemingly ordinary boy, who claims to live a stable life and become a househusband, actually has such a lofty goal. It is obvious how illusory this is, and Kushida Kikyo knows it best.

However, he said that he would spend his whole life pursuing it.

Kushida smiled, laughed heartily, as if he was mocking Hikigaya and mocking himself.

"Hikigaya-san, are you really curious? What would that kind of relationship be called?"

"The real thing."

"The real thing...? If one day you really find a relationship like that, I want to see it with my own eyes."

Hikigaya nodded and agreed to Kushida Kikyo's true request.

Whether in that world or this world, in the past or in the future, Hikigaya would often think about whether what he was pursuing all his life existed.

Perhaps, this is the reason why he traveled to different worlds, or the reason.

If it doesn't exist in this world, go to the next one until you find it.

Hikigaya didn't know yet that his journey had just begun, and the road he was on now was just a short journey.

Carve your goals firmly in your heart. Only in this way can you have a resilient heart when encountering difficulties.

Kushida slowly distanced himself from the boy, as if everything had stopped being deliberate, and instead spoke with a true state of mind:

"Hikigaya-kun, you are such a gentle person."

"Then, I'm going back to my room. We will definitely win the exam tomorrow."

As the girl waved goodbye, Hikigaya watched her slowly leave the deck.

After walking around the corner, the short-haired girl just said to herself:

"Does the real thing...really exist? This world."

She quickened her pace and tried to pretend that the ripples in her heart had never appeared. Even so, the boy's words had already touched her only sincerity.
