During the lunch break, Hikigaya left the camp alone and found a deserted staircase to eat lunch. After all, being grouped with Class C into the white group is entirely the decision of the school.
It can't be blamed on Ichinose. But if you want to blackmail Class C, it will inevitably affect Class B, which is obviously not very likely. Assist Class D to make money. Although the two classes are in a cooperative relationship, they are opponents in this exam. The relationship is really ambiguous and unclear.
Out of helplessness, Hikigaya finished his lunch and came to the camp of the third year Class A.
"Why did you come to the third grade, is there anything?"
Seeing Hikigaya coming, Tachibana Akane asked with some confusion.
"Oh."
Hikigaya nodded and said, "Tachibana Akane senior, I want to find Horikita senpai, is he here?"
"What do you want from the president?"
Tachibana Akane, like a mother bear, immediately became alert.
"No."
Hikigaya was a bit embarrassed, "I have some personal matters to discuss with him, can you help me find Horikita senpai?"
Even though he is not in the student council, this guy still refers to him as the president, obviously respecting Horikita Manabu very much.
"Personal matter?"
Tachibana Akane frowned, somewhat unwilling to say,
"What private matter, if there is anything, just tell me, I will convey it to President Horikita for you."
"..."
Hikigaya was suddenly a bit stunned.
He felt that this senior, Tachibana Akane, seemed to have a bit of hostility towards him.
Where had he offended this guy?
In the past, he had only acted cute in front of her.
Was it really necessary?
Why did this girl make decisions for the commander on her own?
Her possessiveness was a bit too strong.
"Um..."
Hikigaya said with some difficulty: "Tachibana Akane-senpai, if you do this, I'm afraid you'll be disliked by Horikita-senpai."
"There's no such thing."
Tachibana Akane puffed up her face, looking at Hikigaya even more angrily: "I am the person President Horikita trusts the most, he won't be angry with me."
"You don't need to worry, just tell me what's going on, and I'll definitely convey it properly."
"..."
Hikigaya really had a headache.
This senior clearly liked Horikita Manabu, this inexplicable possessiveness really gave him a headache.
What does it mean to be... Tachibana Akane probably had some inexplicable misunderstanding about him.
"Um, senpai."
Hikigaya said with some trouble: "I don't mean to compete with you for anything, this is Horikita-senpai's private matter, it's better to let him come out."
"What competition!"
Tachibana Akane became even angrier, even raising her voice a few notches:
"I just made a few more constructive suggestions, don't be too complacent."
"Alright."
Hikigaya twitched at the corner of his mouth.
He didn't bother to deal with such a love brain.
This girl really thought she was Horikita Manabu's nagging wife.
"Forget it, I'll go ask someone else."
"Hold on, hold on."
Tachibana Akane suddenly became a little flustered, and said somewhat unwillingly:
"I'll take you to see President Horikita."
"Thank you very much."
Hikigaya laughed dryly, if she had done this earlier, it would have been over.
They left the arena and quickly arrived at a garden, not far away they could see Horikita Manabu eating with Fujimaki-senpai and a few boys.
Hmm?
Thinking of Tachibana Akane's inexplicable hostility just now, Hikigaya suddenly felt a little unsure.
This Horikita Manabu wouldn't really have some special hobby, would he?
No, it's impossible, it's normal to eat with friends.
Hikigaya quickly shook his head, almost being led astray by Tachibana Akane.
"You wait here."
Leaving a word, Tachibana Akane walked to Horikita Manabu's side, pointed here and whispered a few words, Horikita Manabu nodded and walked over.
"It's really strange."
Horikita Manabu said in a flat voice:
"I thought I was one of the people you least wanted to approach, I didn't expect you to come to me at this time, did I misunderstand?"
"Hehe."
Hikigaya was a bit embarrassed.
This person is too smart, isn't he? He really doesn't want to interact with Horikita Manabu.
This guy doesn't seem like a student at all.
There's an inexplicable pressure when meeting the commander.
However.
It's not like he's the one I least want to interact with.
Whether it's Horikita Suzune or Ryuen, or the current Horikita Manabu, they're all okay.
The one he least wants to see right now is the unfamiliar Sakayanagi Arisu.
That kind of offender who enjoys disregarding the class.
It's better to keep a respectful distance no matter how you think about it.
"So what?"
Horikita Manabu also doesn't care and says, "What do you want from me?"
"Yes."
Hikigaya looks around and lowers his voice:
"I have some information here, for a hundred thousand points, do you want to buy it?"
"..."
Horikita Manabu seriously scrutinizes him for a moment, then says:
"Since you dare to offer this price, it means this matter is related to me, and her?"
Mind reading.
This guy can read minds, right?
"Yes."
Hikigaya doesn't dare to say more.
He feels that if he says too much, he might be guessed by the other party. The commander is too scary.
"Hikigaya, it seems you saved a lot of personal points in the first semester."
Horikita Manabu's mouth corners reveal a faint smile, as if everything is under control.
"What do you mean?"
Hikigaya is even more confused.
Can you say what you want to say directly? This is very scary.
"Come with me."
The two came to a vending machine, Horikita Manabu bought two bottles of MAX coffee, and gave him one.
"Uh..."
Hikigaya is a bit embarrassed: "Will this be deducted from the transaction fee later?"
"Huh?"
Horikita Manabu was slightly stunned, then laughed: "No need, consider it my treat."
"No reward for no work, I'll transfer it to you later."
Hikigaya shook his head and did not accept.
Free food is indeed the most delicious.
But thanks to good family education, he basically just talks about it. If he is blinded by the small profits in front of him, he will suffer a big loss sooner or later.
Moreover.
They have only met a few times, why should Horikita Manabu invite him to drink?
There's a conspiracy! I can't accept it!
"Never mind."
After theyexchanged contact information, Horikita Manabu looked at the transfer on the phone and shook his head:
"Let me tell you directly, it's almost impossible to rely on personal power to save 20 million personal points in a special exam."
"Oh, is that so?"
Hikigaya nodded, he had thought about it a long time ago.
If a person can save 20 million personal points in a special exam, then the existence of the class will lose its meaning.
Generous exams like the preferential treatment.
I'm afraid there won't be too many.
It's almost impossible to save 20 million personal points individually.
But it's limited to special exams.
Unless the other classes are fools and easy to deceive, or for example, betraying the class, it might be possible to get enough private points.
However, Hikigaya was just doing his best.
It doesn't matter if he can save up to 20 million.
In the end, it can also be exchanged for cash.
"But..."
Horikita Manabu opened the pull ring, took a sip of MAX coffee, and said in a flat tone:
"Nagumo wants to make the school respect individual strength more, and in the future, individuals may be able to save 20 million personal points. Do you think that's better?"
"Who knows, I think it's fine either way."
Hikigaya was a bit helpless.
He was here to negotiate a deal, but why was he talking about everything with Horikita Manabu.
What lofty ideals does this school have in its establishment?
What are Horikita Manabu and Nagumo Miyabi fighting for?
Hikigaya didn't know, didn't understand, and wasn't interested.
Whether it's Horikita Manabu who values the collective, or Nagumo Miyabi who values the individual.
In the end.
Don't you still have to enter society?
Can this garbage school compare to the big dye vat of society?
How can people change so easily?
Those who are not firm in their bottom line will sooner or later become selfish, but it's hard to imagine someone like Ichinose doing bad things.
Hikigaya just felt.
Horikita Manabu and Nagumo Miyabi have too much free time.
"I see..."
Horikita Manabu sighed weakly.
This guy obviously didn't care about how this school was, he would just help those who needed help as much as he could.
"Well, I originally wanted to let you join the school council again, but it seems unlikely now. I'll ask one more question, if you agree to join the student council now, I can still make you vice president directly, are you interested?"
"Then don't ask."
Hikigaya was a bit speechless.
He would never join the student council, feeling that going in would be exploited, and working every day was really scary.
"Alright."
Horikita Manabu nodded, and his tone became calm again:
"Back to the topic just now, Hikigaya, it may be because you got your personal points too easily before, which caused your understanding of the value of personal points to be biased. One hundred thousand is not a small number."
"Well..."
Hikigaya didn't care much: "Then how much do you think is appropriate?"
"You tell me what you know first, and then I can judge the price."
Horikita Manabu's tone was flat, as if he didn't care much about his information.
The two siblings really have the same virtue, always wanting to hold the initiative in their own hands.
But, Horikita Manabu and Horikita Suzune's credit can be guaranteed.
"Your sister seems to be targeted by Ryuen from Class C, you should be able to see it too."
Hikigaya was not stingy.
"Of course."
Horikita Manabu pushed his glasses: "The traitor in Class D leaked the competition list, and my stupid sister targeted by Kinoshita and Yajima."
As expected of the commander.
He said 'his stupid sister', but Horikita Manabu must have been watching Horikita Suzune's situation secretly, and even knew the situation of the surrounding participants.
....
What a tsundere guy.
"So what?"
Horikita Manabu said indifferently, "This is all because my foolish sister is not strong enough. If your information is just this, then it has no value."
He clearly cares about his sister, but he doesn't want to intervene.
He probably wants to see Horikita Suzune solve it independently and let Horikita Suzune grow.
"Um..."
Hikigaya is somewhat dissatisfied. This guy is simply not worthy of being a brother, but after hesitating for a moment, he still says:
"Although this is your family affair and it has nothing to do with me, and I don't want to interfere, but based on my understanding of Ryuen, that guy probably won't end it so simply. It's better for you to keep a close eye on it."
"You mean, that Ryuen will have any follow-up actions?"
"Probably..."
Hikigaya is not very sure, "I think your sister is just pretending to be strong, but she is actually very fragile. It feels like as long as she is slightly threatened, she will easily fall into the hands of bad guys."
"And, it feels like her unusually persistent performance towards you, most likely she won't ask you for help if something happens, she will only think about proving herself."
"If you don't keep a close eye on her, you won't have time to regret it when the time comes."
As a brother.
Naturally, you have to protect your sister well.
This guy actually just wants to distance himself from his sister.
Although I don't know what happened between them, Horikita Manabu's attitude inevitably makes Hikigaya somewhat contemptuous.
This guy is simply not worthy of being a brother.
"Did you find out?"
Hearing Hikigaya's slightly unpleasant tone, Horikita Manabu felt a bit bitter.
After all, he also knew that what Hikigaya said was right.
"In fact, Suzune has been chasing me since she was very young. At first, I just thought that such a sister was very cute."
"Later, I gradually understood that the situation has reached an irreparable point, whether it is dress matching, hobbies, or even taste in food."
"Suzune is trying to be like me, and she is gradually losing herself, losing her brilliant light like a raw gem, and giving up her own potential."
"When I found out about this, I couldn't let the situation continue, so I thought about actively distancing myself and entering this school."
"Unfortunately, she still caught up."
Horikita Manabu looked up at the sky, his eyes fell into the color of reminiscence, and began to mutter:
"When I saw her for the first time, I knew that Suzune had not changed at all from before, and she was still chasing my back."
"She even mistakenly thought that it was because of her lack of strength that I hated her."
Horikita Manabu felt powerless.
Getting too close will make the sister lose herself, and alienation will put the sister in crisis. "Look at you just now"
"You should look down on me, such an incapable brother, I guess you also have a sister?"
Horikita Manabu glanced sideways, a little curious:
"Hikigaya, if you are facing the same situation as me, what would you do?" Work.
