Practical teaching: Starting from the soul traveling through Dragon Garden

Chapter 93 Good Night
"Ayanokouji, since you eavesdropped on our conversation, let me include you in this bet. If my score is higher than Horikita's, you and Horikita will drop out of school together!"

Kikyo's eyes were almost scarlet. Kikyo thought that she had not offended Ayanokouji, but he wanted to kill her, so she didn't need to show mercy to him.

"I was just eavesdropping and don't know the whole story. It's too sudden for me to get involved in your bet. Besides, what I heard won't have any impact on your bet."

Ayanokouji tried to argue that it was not important whether or not to participate in the bet. Ayanokouji was more interested in Kikyo's past. He wanted to take this opportunity to find out about her past. After all, even Horikita was not particularly clear about the details of Kikyo's junior high school experience.

However, Kikyo didn't want to talk to Ayanokouji at all. In Kikyo's eyes, Horikita was a poisonous snake and Ayanokouji was a jackal, and she felt disgusted if she said one more word to him.

"If Ayanokouji disagrees, then our bet will be void."

After leaving these words, Kikyo left without looking back.

It is obvious that Kikyo gave the task of persuading Ayanokouji to Horikita. According to the bond between Horikita and Ayanokouji, they would definitely agree.

And Horikita is not a person who is good at persuasion. In fact, in Horikita's eyes, this bet has little to do with Ayanokouji. She does not want to drag Ayanokouji into it, nor does she think that her relationship with Ayanokouji is good enough to take the risk of dropping out of school together. But Horikita really wants to beat Kikyo in the bet, so with this contradictory mentality, Horikita just stares at Ayanokouji.

Ayanokouji shrugged: "I agree, but can you tell me the details of Kikyo's past?"

"I have nothing to hold back from you in this regard. I really don't know much about Kikyo's past. I just know that she caused the junior high school class to collapse, and the class didn't recover until graduation."

Ayanokouji felt a little disappointed. Horikita's words were of no value at all.

Accepting this bet means that Kikyo has completely stood on the opposite side of Ayanokouji. Even if it means going against Horikita's ideas when necessary, Ayanokouji decides to force Kikyo to drop out of school.

The bet was just a cover, and Ayanokouji's plan was not based on the bet. In the face of the absolute gap in academic ability, Ayanokouji could almost conclude that Kikyo would definitely not be able to score higher than Horikita on the same test paper. Then why did Horikita agree to this bet?

The only possibility is cheating!
In this exam, the test paper that Class D has to take is set by Class C, so the answer is obvious.

"Do you think Ryuuen will leak the questions to Kushida?"

After Kikyo left, Ayanokouji followed Horikita again.

The fact that he asked this question showed that Ayanokouji was aware of the relationship between Kikyo and Ryuuen. Horikita was not surprised by this. After all, Kikyo had been a traitor during the sports festival. But in Horikita's mind, that was just a deal between them. Ryuuen had no reason to help Kikyo in this exam, and he had also reached a cooperation with Ryuuen.

Because of the agreement with Ryuen, Horikita is very confident: "Do you think Ryuen wants me to drop out of school?"

Horikita asked this to test whether Ayanokouji was aware of the relationship between himself and Ryuen. Horikita had not yet told Ayanokouji about his cooperation with Ryuen. Ever since the uninhabited island exam, Horikita had always had a vague suspicion about Ayanokouji. This man had hidden a lot from her. Ayanokouji's outstanding performance in the sports festival also confirmed Horikita's guess. Although Horikita did not say anything about the eavesdropping just now, she felt a sense of disgust in her heart.

"It's not that serious yet. Doesn't Ryuuen like you very much? I heard before that he wants to pursue you. He should be the one who least wants you to drop out of school."

Ayanokouji sensed Horikita's probing and used the rumors he had spread before without leaving any trace.

"Boring, you would believe that kind of rumor?"

The atmosphere around Horikita softened. It seemed that Ayanokouji's words had lowered Horikita's vigilance.

At the same time, the two came to the intersection where they separated, and here they were no longer going the same way.

They separated very consciously, without saying goodbye, let alone good night, and both went back to their respective dormitories.

Back in the dormitory, Ayanokouji's words reminded Horikita that if Kushida concealed the bet from Ryuuen and got the answers to the test from him, he would be in a very dangerous situation.

After figuring this out, Horikita felt that it would be better to call Ryuen to confirm this.

When the call was connected, Ryuen's tone sounded a little lazy: "Horikita, are you calling me so late to say good night to me?" "This kind of thing, let's wait until I beat Class A before doing it! I want to tell you that Kikyo and I have a bet to compete for math test scores. If I lose, I will drop out of school. If I win, she will no longer hinder me."

"You are so naive, Lingyin. This bet is not fair, but this is your character. I like it. I know what you want to say and what I should do. But I will also remind you, Lingyin."

Feeling that Ryuen's tone had turned a little serious, Horikita waited seriously for his next words. Although Horikita didn't think Ryuen could give any profound insights, Ryuen definitely had his own unique understandings that Horikita needed to learn from.

After a long pause to gather his emotions, Ryuen said slowly: "Ringyin, when you call me at night, you should end with good night."

"you!"

Horikita was very angry. She didn't expect Ryuuen to give her this kind of reminder. Although she wanted to hang up the phone directly, her upbringing prevented her from hanging up immediately. As a result, after saying the word "you", Horikita didn't know what to say.

"Mo Xi, Mo Xi, is Ling Yin still there?" Long Yuan teased on the other end of the phone.

"good night!"

Horikita hung up the phone.

Ryuen had just hung up the phone when Kikyo also called.

"Who were you talking to on the phone just now? I waited for a long time before I got through."

"Why, are you questioning me, Kikyo?"

"No...No, I just want to ask, are you free now? I'll come talk to you."

"It's too late now. If you have something to say, just talk on the phone."

Ryuuen's voice sounded very lazy, giving people the feeling that he was about to fall asleep, although it was indeed quite late.

Although Kikyo could talk about it tomorrow, since she had made the call, she didn't plan to end it like that.

"I want answers to the test. I don't need answers to all the subjects. Just give me math."

Kikyo lacks confidence. Although she is on Ryuuen's side in a sense, Ryuuen never does anything without benefits, and Kikyo has nothing to show for herself.

However, this time, Long Yuan was unexpectedly good-tempered: "Okay, I'll tell you the details after the test paper is finished."

Kikyo was a little flattered: "Okay, okay."

"Good night."

Before Kikyo could finish saying good night, Ryuuen hung up the phone.

Kamuro crawled out from Ryuen's quilt: "You are so popular. The fate of both of them is in your hands now. What do you think? Do you want Horikita or Kushida?"

Kamuro lay on Ryuen's chest, harassing his neck with a strand of purple hair.

"you guess."
