The next day. The third day of the exam. After school. In the corridor outside Class B classroom.
Hikigaya was leaning against the wall, and Ichinose was standing next to him like a follower. She was talking on the phone and nodded before hanging up.
"He seems to be in the library. He just arrived. It's probably not too late to go there now.
"Understood," Hikigaya nodded, got up and prepared to go out to perform the mission.
"Hikki, come on."
Hikigaya raised his hand indifferently. Um?
This scene seems to have happened before. Is he trapped in the same day?
It must be an illusion!
In the library, as soon as Hikigaya walked in, he spotted a white figure, it was Shiina Hiyori, and the other party gently waved her little hand towards him to let him pass. Unfortunately, not today. Hikigaya shook his head, turned to observe the library, and finally found the dazzling little yellow hair among the crowd. Kaneda sat with several boys, as if guiding them in their studies.
It may be that Class C has decided to drop out of school from Ryuuen, so their atmosphere seems quite pleasant. This gives me a headache.
Hikigaya wants to be able to talk to the other party alone. What should I do?
Just when Hikigaya felt a headache,
"Hikigaya-kun," Shiina Hiyori sneaked close to him, looked at Kaneda and others in the distance and said,
"Are you looking for Kaneda?"
"Well, that's right."
Hikigaya was surprised and nodded when he realized it was Shiina Hiyori.
"I can help," Shiina Hiyori smiled mischievously, and Hikigaya could already tell her smile. Shiina Hiyori is lazy when she doesn't care at all, she pretends to smile when she feels guilty, and she smiles like this when she wants to be scheming. It's actually quite easy to understand.
"What are the conditions?"
Hikigaya was a little wary. Although he feels that Shiina Hiyori is not a bad person, her rank may be one step higher than Kushida Kikyo's.
"Let's talk to the side."
Shiina Hiyori glanced at Kaneda and the others, then walked to the two bookshelves first, and Hikigaya followed them in without hesitation.
"I always feel..." Looking at the narrow aisle and Hikigaya standing in front of him, Shiina Hiyori smiled and said,
"So exciting."
"Where?"
Looking at Shiina Hiyori leaning against the wall, Hikigaya was a little confused. What was so exciting about just standing between two bookshelves?
"Nothing," she replied.
"I'll help you arrange a private meeting with Kaneda. How about Hikki and your friends help vote for Ryuuen from outside the class?" Shiina Hiyori waved her little hands carelessly, her pretty face turned red for some reason. She does not require Hikigaya to control the appreciation votes of the entire Class B, as long as she can do her best, as many votes as she can get.
"Um?" Hikigaya was slightly startled. Obviously, Ibuki Mio didn't tell anyone about the deal with Class B, but acted secretly behind the scenes. He was worthy of being a lone wolf who practiced the way of a lone ranger. In this case, it's not that he can't tell Shiina Hiyori, after all, she's obviously not the talkative type.
Hikigaya waved, and Shiina Hiyori quickly stood up on her toes, and her delicate earlobes came close to him. Why wave? These girls just like to put their ears up. Isn't it too strange?
Are people in Kyoto so open? Please be more reserved like Chiba.
"Actually..." Hikigaya's face turned red and she lowered her voice and said,
"We have already discussed with Ibuki that we will give all the appreciation votes from Class B to Ryuuen, but it is best not to let Ryuuen know about this, otherwise he may cause some trouble."
"Oh?" Shiina Hiyori was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, the matter had been solved somewhere she didn't know about. As for the reason for not letting Ryuuen know, she naturally knew it very well.
"Besides," Hikigaya whispered,
"In this case, you still need to choose another dropout. If you don't mind it, you can discuss it with Ibuki." He felt that Ibuki Mio may not get a few votes, but it has nothing to do with him. Shiina Hiyori is free to do so whether she wants to, Hikigaya just reminded her by the way.
"Understood," Shiina Hiyori nodded solemnly.
Although she doesn't compete in the class and prefers to be alone, she is still very trusted by girls. It is also clear that Manabe Shiho has been unhappy with Ibuki Mio for a long time, and has long secretly gathered his companions to vote for her criticism.
Although the dropout has decided to be Ryuuen, he can still scare the others. However, both Ryuuen and Ibuki Mio are indispensable members of Class C, but not many people can see this. Now with her help, they should be able to count some votes. They should try to let these people with strength avoid dropping out of school in this special examination.
"Then I'm going to find Kaneda," Shiina Hiyori breathed a sigh of relief and smiled,
"Hikigaya-kun, do you think it would be more appropriate to meet there?"
"The small alley behind the library, there should be fewer people there."
"Well, then go over and wait for a while."
"Understood."
Hikigaya nodded, turned and left. Shiina Hiyori behind him couldn't help but pat her chest and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Being blocked by Hikigaya, she was really a little nervous. Although she guided it herself, she was still a little excited. Anyway, she was just doing her best.
Behind the library, Hikigaya waited for a moment and frowned when he saw Kaneda and Shiina Hiyori walking towards this side. Honestly, he doesn't hate Kaneda, but wants to have a private conversation with him.
After all, Kaneda is a bit smart and very easy to understand. Hikigaya feels that he can handle this guy steadily. But Shiina Hiyori followed him. Didn't he make it clear?
Or maybe it's because Shiina Hiyori is a member of Class C after all, and she also cares a little about his reasons for looking for Kaneda. If it's not good for Class C, Shiina Hiyori might remind him.
Never mind, it's okay for Shiina Hiyori to know about this. After all, Hikigaya thought he was using a naked conspiracy, and the other party had no reason to disagree. Even Ryuuen had to admit it when he came!
Certainly,
the prerequisite is to guide the conversation well. After all, the rest of Ryuuen's five million point has to go into his own pocket, so he can save whatever he can.
But, looking at the two people approaching,
Hikigaya suddenly had a flash of inspiration and felt that this was another opportunity to sow discord with Class C. Although he feels a little embarrassed for Shiina Hiyori, public is public and private is private. He did what he thought of, and Hikigaya hurriedly walked towards the two of them.
Kaneda pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said jokingly,
"I didn't expect it would be you, Hikigaya-san. Why, are you afraid of dropping out and want to buy our class votes from me?" Yes, yes, yes, smart, smart. No surprises. Hikigaya's evaluation in Class C and Class D is really bad.
Everyone knows that if there is a dropout from Class B, it will definitely be Hikigaya, unless the kind-hearted Ichinose shows mercy. Not to mention, when he was on an uninhabited island, he was tricked by Hikigaya, causing him to be embarrassed in the class. Kaneda must have ridiculed him to the extreme. Although Kaneda was tolerant and generous when they stayed together in the forest, he still endured the ridicule on the uninhabited island until the last day. Hikigaya doesn't think he has much magnanimity.
To be honest, even so, Hikigaya really doesn't hate this person. Kaneda's strength is indeed there, and his brains may be much better than those of Ishizaki or even Ibuki Mio.
But as long as he behaves a little humbly and flatters, people like Kaneda will immediately rise to the top. It's really easy to understand.
"That..."
Hikigaya glanced at Shiina Hiyori with an ugly expression, then at Kaneda, forcing a smile and saying,
"I have something I want to talk to Kaneda-san alone. Can it be convenient?" The implication, I don't want to embarrass myself in front of girls.
"hmph...."
Kaneda sneered, glanced at Shiina Hiyori beside him and said,
"Shiina-san, you go back first, I will talk to this guy alone."
"All right..." Shiina Hiyori glanced at the two of them helplessly. After all, they both asked her to leave, so staying here would be a bit disrespectful. After looking at Kaneda, Shiina Hiyori turned and left. He indeed did not have the ability to be a leader.
"So, Hikigaya-san, what do you want to talk to me about?" Kaneda pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Ha ha. You finally fell into my hands. How dare you be so arrogant on an uninhabited island? Finally, the situation will change one day!
My showtime is here!
