"Thanks for your hard work!"
"Eh?" Suzune took the mineral water, but was stunned subconsciously. 'Because the person Hachiman was talking to was not me, but Ibuki-san!'
Suzune worked hard. What's this reaction? She is a classmate for Merlin's sake!
"You had a really good start just now. Have you done any special training?"
"....." Suzune had no words.
"...." Ibuki didn't know how to answer Hachiman.
This behavior is very unusual.
"What... is there in the mineral water? For example, laxatives and such. This would be prohibited at the Games!"
Ibuki didn't take mineral water, but questioned it, because it didn't look like Hachiman was courting his enemy.
"Why? Why do you say that? I just think you are very powerful. But Horikita is also a Supergirl. If it were in the 200-meter competition, then she would still win!"
This is human talk. Praise her in a roundabout way.
Suzune finally calmed down, although she doesn't really like to hear flattery.
"....." Ibuki really felt that Hikigaya Hachiman was poisonous.
She said nothing.
"When you face Horikita again in the 1,200-meter relay, I will even come to watch!"
"...I won't meet her again." However, Ibuki left a slightly discouraging sentence and turned around to leave.
She seemed not to like spending too much time with the people in Class B.
But Hachiman felt relieved, he said
these words just to bring out what Ibuki said.
Ryuen had two strategies in the games, one against Sudo and the other against Suzune.
The news about her was brought back by Kushida, but the information was also obtained from Ryuen.
Whether Ryuen is really targeting Suzune is not yet certain.
'But looking at it now, Ryuen is really a person who doesn't trust others when he employs them, and doesn't use them when he doubts others.'
The news coming out is true.
Through the little spy, Hachiman even knew that Ryuen had directly held a meeting on combat in his class.
However, it was too easy to get the information, so Hachiman needed to confirm it.
And Ibuki gave him the answer.
On the entry list, Ibuki also participated in 1,200-meter relay race, and there was a sports meet for Kinoshita's track and field team in Class D.
She ran faster than Ibuki, but she did not participate in the 1,200-meter relay race, which was very strange.
'From Ibuki's words, it can be confirmed that Kinoshita, who did not participate in the 1,200-meter relay, was probably used as a pawn to attack Horikita.....'
This means that before the 1200 relay race, Ryuen will order to kill Horikita Suzune.
'That's why Ibuki said...I won't meet her again.'
And if Hachiman behaves so strangely, will Ibuki notice that he is telling a story?
Then will she report it to Ryūen and make him alert?
Don't worry.
Ibuki has a simple personality, that is to say, she is relatively stupid, and this was discovered during the VIP exam.
"Next, be ready," Hachiman's eyes finally turned over to look at Suzune with a narrowed gaze, "Ryuen should be acting according to the established plan."
"???" Suzune's left hand just held the water bottle.
She knew this was Hachiman's notification to her that next step was her trick.
"The phone is ready."
She said she would make a recording, and if Ryuen was going to frame her, she would prove her innocence.
"The phone may not be enough, I brought a voice recorder!"
"Recording... pen." Suzune was surprised, because Hachiman had already prepared such a tool for real espionage operations.
"Since you want to act, then naturally you have to do more realistically...."
"...Did you watch too many spy genre?"
"You should take my pen."
Suzune begrudgingly took the recorder and put it in her pocket.
And when Hachiman was about to continue talking------
"Hikigaya-kun, it's not good——" A classmate suddenly ran over.
"Sudo went to find Koenji!"
???
Guy went to find---? Bloody hell....
Everyone can see Sudo's efforts in preparing for this sports festival.
And now Koenji's wanton withdrawal from the competition, this kind of behavior of someone who doesn't care about unity of the class, makes serious people very angry.
As for Koenji's withdrawal from the competition, it's a matter of course.
This has been known for a long time, but the key point is Sudo.
Sudo has a hot temper. If he fights Koenji, he may be kicked out of the match because of the brawl.
The entire battle plan is centered around Sudo gaining a lot of points.
It would be terrible if he quit!
"Koenji, you freak!" Sudo shouted angrily at him, who was sitting in the small water room, holding a mirror and combing his golden hair.
But someone held him back.
It seems there is still time.
Seeing Ike and the others hold Sudo up, Hachiman breathed a sigh of relief.
Because sudden fights are trivial matters, what we really need to worry about is that if the matter is serious, Sudo will be banned directly.
'Sudo, you can't let your life go to waste here!'
But nothing has been done in Ryuen, so it would be a pity for Sudo to send it now.
Therefore, after seeing him being persuaded to come down, Hachiman handed Sudo over to the trustworthy almighty man Hirata-kun, and returned to the white group's rest area.
Each team in the 100-meter race was very fast, and when Hachiman came back, the girls were already competing in the hurdle race.
Only.
"H-Hikigaya——" However, when Hachiman returned to the rest area, a girl with a white band on her head ran over with great effort, panting.
This is Sakura Airi.
Sakura Airi put a hand on the left side of her chest, "Hikigaya-kun... did you watch my game?"
Fuck!
Fuck!
Fuck!
Have you run away? And got your race already over?
After the physical test data from the sports games appeared, Hachiman discovered that Sakura's physical fitness was probably the worst.
Considering Sakura's divine help to him, he applied for assistance from Kamuro-san who was good at sports.
Let other person help Sakura train during the sports meeting.
Kamuro-san is cold-faced. Although she helps with the training, Sakura also knows this is because of Hikigaya-kun's favor.
And now, Just to test results of her training.
'So, I want Hikigaya-kun to confirm it with both eyes!'
"..." Hachiman.
'Has Sakura finished the competition? I was just worried that Sudo would lose his life in vain, so I went to calm people down...'
Hachiman didn't see Sakura's game at all, or he missed it perfectly.
And now Sakura looked over with a slightly nervous expression, as if she wanted to get a reward.
"Well----"
So, how to answer this?
"Sakura.....You have worked very hard! I am very happy!"
He ended up using this vague answer.
This is done through analysis. Because if she ran poorly, Sakura wouldn't come to him.
"Y-yeah...yeah!" Sakura nodded and clasped her hands together. Then she said that she was not at the bottom, but ranked third.
She is located in cannon fodder group, which means there are no strong enemies.
Class C, which is combined with her, directly arranges two discards, and there are 8 people in a group, so in a 6-person competition,
To get third place, Sakura really worked hard.
Worthy of praise.
This made Hachiman, who had been sleeping all morning, a little embarrassed.
"Don't push yourself too hard."
"Uh-huh." Sakura felt a little relieved, and then went to the field again, because her game was not over yet.
Having learned this lesson, he also went to the hurdle to watch Sakura's next race.
The wait didn't take long.
Sakura, who was placed in the hurdle race in the sixth group, appeared.
But this time she was not so lucky and only finished 5th.
But not being at the bottom is considered a good effort.
"It's too much for you to be paired with Sakura!" Hachiman looked at, the first place winner in hurdle event.
The opponent's legs are very long and strong, probably to facilitate movement, and even her long hair is tied into a ponytail.
This is Masumi Kamuro.
Kamuro was also the one who guided Sakura during this period, but it turned out that both the master and disciple were in the same group.
Cruel indeed.
"It's not me who arranges the entry form!" Kamuro-san obviously complained, "But. Is there no mineral water?"
"....Mineral water?"
"Didn't you give Horikita and Ibuki from Class D before?"
"Oh, that. I didn't prepare that much mineral water. And you don't seem to need it too much...."
"..." Kamuro-san.
Snort! Snort!
Curled her lips in disdain and walked away proudly.
She was speechless for this kind of Iron straight man.
Although Kamuro-san was not interested in a straight man like Hachiman, the girl who came in second place in same group looked over with interest.
"Hikigaya-kun?"
The other party said.
Um?
...Hachiman turned around and immediately saw a fair and clean face.
The other party has beautiful long silver hair, which is also tied into a ponytail for ease of movement.
If Kamuro-san's single ponytail makes people feel a little fresh, then this girl's single ponytail is a bit amazing.
This is Hiyori Shiina, an acquaintance from the library whom Hachiman has met several times.
'What's going on here? Do I have such incredible luck?'
