At the school gate, looking at Horikita Manabu's disappearing figure, the three of them, including Hikigaya, stayed where they were, looking in the same direction.
Even though they hadn't met Horikita Manabu many times, it was conceivable that they might never see this senior again.
It was inevitably a bit sad.
"It will get lonely later," Ayanokouji said, standing between the two and glancing at the girl on the left.
It took a lot of effort to resolve the misunderstanding with Horikita Manabu, but they wouldn't be able to see each other for a long time from now on.
Presumably, everyone would be a little sad.
Hearing the words, Horikita Suzune looked tense, but her eyes were a little red.
"Yes, thank you, Ayanokouji and Hikigaya. It would be very sad if I was the only one to see my brother off on the day he leaves."
Hikigaya on the side was slightly stunned.
Obviously, Horikita Manabu is the leader of Class A in the third year, but they were the only ones seeing him off. This must mean that he is not unpopular. Presumably, they were all rejected by Horikita Manabu.
Only now did they realize that Horikita Manabu was also a loner.
"You don't have to hold back when you're sad,"
Ayanokouji said expressionlessly. "It doesn't matter if you cry, right?"
"How is it possible? I'm already satisfied with this. Where...where can there be sadness..."
"Well," Horikita Suzune didn't finish her words.
The two of them heard a choking sound and quickly looked in the direction of the sound. They saw Hikigaya's eyes were red and she was choking uncontrollably.
"???" Ayanokouji's head was full of questions.
Forget about Horikita Suzune, she is her biological sister after all, but Hikigaya and Horikita Manabu don't seem to have a good relationship.
Why is he crying?
And beside them...
Influenced by Hikigaya, Horikita Suzune couldn't control herself anymore. She sniffed in frustration, tears streaming down her face, and she sobbed slightly:
"What are you doing? That's my brother, why are you crying?"
"I didn't cry, there is a sand got into my eyes..." Hikigaya's eyes turned red and she sniffed.
That's Horikita Manabu. He give me more than 27 million personal points!
Even my mother has never been so kind to me! Hikigaya thought. I will never meet such a nice person again in my life.
At this moment, Ayanokoji expressionlessly took out a tissue and handed it to the two of them. Horikita Suzune took it and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
He glanced at the tissue handed to him. Hikigaya kind of wanted it. But I really didn't want to have anything to do with Ayanokouji, so I couldn't help but touch the windbreaker a few times, wondering if the tissues I bought last time were still there.
Soon, I found a whole pack of tissues and a clean handkerchief in my pocket.
"No, I have it."
Hikigaya picked up a handkerchief and wiped the tears from his eyes.
"Yeah." Ayanokouji didn't pay attention and calmly handed a tissue to Horikita Suzune. It was hard to say anything with Hikigaya around.
After a long time, Horikita Suzune finally adjusted her mood, her sobbing could not help but weaken, and she felt a little angry just looking at Hikigaya.
This guy is still crying? She cried harder than her biological sister!
"Enough."
Horikita Suzune was speechless and said, "Don't you think it's a bit disgusting to cry like this?"
"Oh, oh…" Hikigaya nodded sheepishly. It does feel a bit disgusting.
But he would cry just looking at Pretty Cure, and he couldn't hold back the sadness of parting.
"Horikita-senpai has left, so I'll go back first." Hikigaya wiped his eyes, turned around and walked towards the dormitory building, so as not to attract suspicion here.
"Wait a minute."
At this time, Horikita Suzune suddenly spoke.
Whether it was before or facing Ayanokouji, this was the first time I saw Horikita smile so happily. Different from the happy and gentle smile for her caring sister, it is the kind of smile that comes from the heart.
What is the relationship between this man and Horikita Manabu? Horikita Suzune hesitated and said:
"If possible, can you tell me what you talked about with my brother."
"Well..." Hikigaya stopped. After all, this guy is Horikita Manabu's younger sister, so she does have the right to intervene.
In addition to helping watch Horikita Suzune, there seems to be nothing inconvenient to say.
"Nothing." Hikigaya choked up and said: "Horikita-senpai just wants me to lead my class, and it is best to prevent Nagumo Miyabi from reforming the school."
Ayanokouji looked calm and did not speak. Now Horikita Suzune has grown into a qualified leader.
"I see, so you will be leading the class starting from next semester?"
"How can it be...." Looking at the serious-browed Horikita Suzune, Hikigaya was speechless:
"How on earth did you make such a judgment? Of course I refused."
"Um?" Horikita Suzune frowned and looked puzzled. "But I saw my brother smiling happily. What's going on?"
"I don't know," Hikigaya didn't hide his confusion. "He just said that sooner or later, I would take the initiative to take responsibility and said some inexplicable words that I didn't understand. I didn't expect your brother to have such an innocent side."
"I see. I'll leave too" Horikita Suzune nodded indifferently, turned around, and left with Ayanokouji Kiyotaka.
In her eyes, Hikigaya is an opponent that needs to be vigilant.
Finally, the three of them walked towards the dormitory building together, but Hikigaya took the initiative to stand further away.
On the other side, following Horikita Suzune, Ayanokouji couldn't help but glance at the girl beside them. A girl with long purple hair was hiding in the corner.
Although he didn't know when she appeared, at least when he was talking with Horikita Manabu, he didn't feel any sign of being followed. She was probably following Hikigaya.
It seems that after the duel with him, Sakayanagi Arisu wants to start attacking Hikigaya. There's nothing wrong with that.
Instead, Hikigaya attracted fire for him. If only Sakayanagi Arisu could turn her attention to Hikigaya. For him, that would be a good thing.
And once Class A conflicts with Class C, it will definitely be a good thing for Class D. At this point in time, the partnership with Ichinose was terminated. Horikita Suzune did make the most correct choice to make the situation so beneficial to Class D.
In this case, Class D has a greater chance of impacting the upper class.
Unconsciously, Horikita Suzune has grown to such an extent. However, Ayanokouji was a little skeptical. Can Sakayanagi really take on Hikigaya Hachiman?
It's not that there's anything wrong with Sakayanagi Arisu's strength, but that Hikigaya Hachiman is just too outrageous. Simply put, the current Hikigaya raised the white flag before the game even started.
