Of course, Horikita Manabu had no idea that Li Mo, whom he considered his sister's boyfriend, had already completely taken advantage of Horikita Suzune. If there were several other women involved, he probably would have transformed into a Saiyan and torn him to shreds...

Ahem, getting back to the main point, as the student council president, Horikita Manabu couldn't possibly show any favoritism on the surface. In the context of the Real Classroom anime's storyline, when his younger sister Horikita Suzune's class D was framed, his verdict was that Sudo Ken would be expelled, but he still gave Class D a chance to turn things around. This shows that as Horikita Suzune's older brother, Horikita Manabu actually cared about his sister's situation in secret.

This time, Horikita Manabu could naturally see that the three boys from Class C were definitely planning to do something when they went to cause trouble for Sudo Ken from Class D. However, they did not expect that Li Mo would actually dig such a trap for them, directly obtaining evidence and then striking first. With sufficient evidence and a suitable excuse, he sealed the matter instead of investigating the secrets behind it, which already helped Li Mo and Class D.

Similarly, the other members of the student council, including Vice President Nan Yunya, could estimate the current situation, but they had no interest in helping Class C of the first year. Moreover, given the conclusive evidence, they didn't know where to begin to help, so naturally they wouldn't ask for trouble by standing up for Class C.

Faced with this situation, Class C's homeroom teachers, Kazuma Sakagami and Sho Ryuen, were both helpless. The former knew the rules of Advanced Nurturing High School and understood that trying to argue when the evidence was conclusive was a completely futile effort.

Compared to Kazuma Sakagami, Sho Ryuen appeared very calm. After realizing that the situation was beyond repair, he decisively chose to accept defeat and cut his losses.

no way!

Long Yuanxiang knew he had made a mistake this time. He had been caught red-handed and the evidence was left behind. No one would believe him if he said anything. With the evidence so conclusive, the student council would not let Class C off the hook.

It can be said that Class C's first operation was unsuccessful, and the deduction of 150 class points would be a blow to Long Yuanxiang, who leads Class C. The reason he controls Class C is to control violence and unify the power of Class C so that everyone can benefit. Otherwise, who would listen to his orders for no reason?

The first month of freshman assessments has ended, and the fact that Class C's results were inferior to Class D's has already caused some people to murmur in their hearts. However, Ryuuen Sho's previous rise to become the leader of Class C is still impressive, and Class C at least has 507 class points, which, according to Class C's homeroom teacher Sakagami Kazuma, is already an outstanding result among all previous Class C classes. This is why most people in Class C didn't say anything. Ryuuen Sho chose to block Class D, and if his plan succeeds, his prestige will naturally increase greatly.

Now, Ryuen Sho felt caught off guard. Not only did Class D not fall for the trick, but they also took the opportunity to dig a hole for him. When he received the news and followed Class C's homeroom teacher, Sakagami Kazuma, to the student council, he knew that the situation was very bad. When the student council president, Horikita Gakuichi, explained the situation and announced the punishment for Class C's incident, it meant that not only had his plan failed, but he had also lost a lot of money.

However, what Long Yuanxiang understands even more is that he can only accept this verdict now. Otherwise, if he really investigates further, such as why the three boys from Class C would take the initiative to provoke and beat up Xu Tengjian, he might be dragged into it. So, ending it here is actually an acceptable result.

When Ryuen Shoji chose to admit defeat and even signaled to suppress the actions of the three C-class boys with his eyes, Horikita Manabu, as the student council president, directly announced the punishment results. The punished ones were naturally the C-class boys who had taken the initiative to provoke and fight.

In this regard, [Advanced Education High School] has clear school rules and regulations. The party that initiates a fight will be severely punished. The punishment of the person being punished is not long, but it will leave a bad record in their file. For example, their class will have a lot of class points deducted. Class C is no exception. A total of 150 class points will be deducted, and three unlucky students will be punished.

As for the other party, Kenjiro Suto, the reason for the fight wasn't because of him. The student council didn't say much except for a few words of warning, and Class D wouldn't be affected by it. After all, as the victim of being provoked and beaten by three students from Class C, Kenjiro even received the good news that his medical expenses would be waived. Moreover, if his injuries didn't seem too serious and he didn't need to be hospitalized, according to the school rules of [Advanced Education High School], those three students from Class C would have to pay for his medical expenses.

When the matter was declared over, as Li Mo left the student council with Su Tengjian, watching Sakagami Kazuma, Ryuen Sho, and the others leave, their departing figures even carried a hint of desolation. Clearly, their scheme had failed and they had suffered a silent loss, which was not a good experience for Class C's homeroom teacher and Ryuen Sho. Not to mention the three boys from Class C, who had caused losses to Class C, their future days would certainly not be easy.

Seeing that Class C lost 150 class points and three unlucky students were suspended for half a month, Li Mo was in a good mood and teased Sakura Airi. Then he prepared to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate the last unstable factor in Class D!

Chapter 23 Kikyo Kushida's Secret

When Li Mo, Sakura Airi, and Sudo Ken returned from the student council, the news that Class C had suffered a humiliating defeat spread throughout Class D. Sudo Ken, in particular, was quite smug and took the initiative to gloat in the class group chat, letting everyone in Class D know the news.

Undoubtedly, most students in Class D felt happy and proud when they learned that Class C's attempt to thwart their class's plan had been thwarted. As native Japanese residents accustomed to sticking together, and facing a class-based competitive mechanism at Advanced Nurturing High School, they naturally considered themselves members of Class D. When they encountered Class C, who had taken the initiative to provoke them, they naturally felt a sense of shared hatred and indignation.

This is naturally one of the changes brought about by Li Mo. In the original storyline of the Class 14 manga, Class D was not fully integrated. Some people wanted to help Sudo Ken, who was framed, while others felt that he had brought trouble. Since they were not fully integrated internally, they could not do anything they wanted to do.

In contrast, Class D has now formed a cohesive unit. With Li Mo, the "Great Demon King," suppressing them, and Hirata Yosuke, Kushida Kikyo, Karuizawa Megumi, and others mediating the relationships between the Class D students, they have become a highly cohesive group. By the end of the first month, even Class C had been trampled under their feet, so naturally they don't think much of the losers in Class C.

Previously, Li Mo had deliberately reminded the students of Class D in the class chat group that students from other classes might try to test them or even make friends with them. He warned the students of Class D to be vigilant. Xu Tengjian even revealed that he had a verbal dispute with three boys from Class C in the basketball club. Li Mo secretly set a trap with him and successfully tricked Class C into taking the offensive. Most of the students in Class D were overjoyed and felt proud of themselves.

After all, through Li Mo and their homeroom teacher Chashu Sae, everyone knew that [Advanced Nurturing High School] had a fierce competition mechanism. Only the graduates of Class A in each year's four classes would receive preferential treatment in terms of employment. Even among ordinary students in Class D, few felt like they were just slackers. At least before they were completely discouraged and lost confidence, everyone was still very eager to give it a shot.

It was precisely because the students in Class D still had some spirit and hadn't completely given up and become slackers that Li Mo was prepared to teach those weaklings a lesson. And judging from the current situation in Class D, Li Mo felt that his teaching had been quite effective. Even Su Tengjian, the brainless brute in the original story, had learned the good habit of not fighting when he noticed something unusual, but reporting it to his boss immediately.

Li Mo didn't pay much attention to the lively scene in the chat group of the D class students. After sending Sakura Airi to his dormitory, he unusually didn't go to find other girls to spend the night with. Instead, he patiently sat in his dormitory, playing games and waiting for night to fall!

………………

As night deepened, the streetlights on the campus of [Advanced Education High School] were lit up well before nightfall, casting a warm glow on the black and white asphalt road.

As one of the four northernmost islands of Japan, located at a relatively high latitude, the evening breeze in May still carries a hint of chill, yet also a touch of spring warmth. The nighttime temperature drops below 20 degrees Celsius, making it a pleasant time to go out. Tokyo's nightlife is particularly vibrant at this time, with numerous entertainment venues, restaurants, and shops that captivate visitors.

However, Advanced Nurturing High School is a boarding school, so it's impossible for it to have the vibrant nightlife of Tokyo. Even if it has a shopping street, it will only be open until 11 p.m., except for a few 24-hour convenience stores. Moreover, things like pachinko parlors and Kabukicho are not available at Advanced Nurturing High School. Therefore, students at Advanced Nurturing High School rarely stay out late.

To be fair, the security at [Advanced Education High School] is excellent, and it's impossible for anything outrageous to happen at night. However, among the hundreds of students, there are always some who have different ideas. Occasionally, some of them will be busy with club activities until late before returning to their dorms, and there are also guys who have a habit of jogging at night and insist on running several laps before going back to sleep. [Advanced Education High School] doesn't regulate these things either, and will only investigate if something happens.

However, if the students of Class D in the first year look at the dormitory entrance at this time, they will be surprised to find that Kikyo Kushida, who is extremely popular in the class and claims to want to be friends with everyone, actually came out late at night!

"Sure enough, no one is coming out now..."

Looking at the deserted night view outside, Kikyo Kushida's usual gentle smile vanished, replaced by a coldness that made the students in Class D and other classes who knew her feel strangely unfamiliar.

In the past, Kikyo Kushida always had a friendly and approachable demeanor with a smile in front of everyone, giving people a feeling of warmth and approachability. In addition, this beautiful girl, who was less than 1.6 meters tall, with light chestnut shoulder-length hair and a graceful figure, was very cute. Many first-year students were willing to befriend her. In Class D, it goes without saying that she was the most influential girl among the girls. Kikyo Kushida ranked first, followed by Megumi Karuizawa and Suzune Horikita.

This isn't just about the rankings in Class D. Kushida Kikyo even has friends in the other three classes of first-year students. While their relationships might not be very close, she can still find out some information about them. If Li Mo didn't reveal the names of the beautiful girls she's close to, Kushida Kikyo would be considered an expert at understanding the activities of other classes. She was also very popular with other students and was regarded as an angel.

If someone who knew Kikyo Kushida saw her sudden change in expression, they would surely think they had mistaken her for someone else. How could Kikyo Kushida, who was usually helpful and loved making friends, have become a completely different person?

At present, Kikyo Kushida did not let anyone see her. She carefully looked around and found no other students. Without hesitation, she walked towards a road. Her figure was fast, like a race walk, which was completely different from the slow walk of other girls. Even the direction she chose was problematic.

According to the school map of [Advanced Nurturing High School], if you continue along the road that Kikyo Kushida chose and cross the green belt, you should reach the coastal area of ​​the artificial island. There is a straight park path there, with many public benches facing the sea. There are no unsightly slanted safety nets, only ordinary waist-high safety railings and warning signs. Generally, no one goes near that area, which resembles a seaside cliff. Occasionally, it becomes a perfect spot for couples to have a private date.

Most importantly, there aren't many surveillance cameras in that area, or rather, no one at [Advanced Educational High School] would think that someone would go there to do anything. At most, it's a rather special closed-management high school. It's impossible for someone to come from the sea and carry out a sneak attack. Even though the students at the school face a lot of competition, there have never been any cases of anyone jumping into the sea and swimming back to Tokyo.

The reason is simple: in Tokyo, where even public high schools are expensive, the teaching resources of [Advanced Educational High School] are comparable to those of the top private high schools. Any student who enters this high school, unless they are truly hopeless, will want to graduate in Class A and will not give up this rare opportunity.

Especially now, late at night, when Kikyo Kushida walks on the street, there is no one around at all, which makes her walk even more direct and rough. Compared to walking normally, her hurried and impulsive manner makes her look like she is about to fight someone.

However, Kikyo Kushida didn't notice that when she left the dormitory building, Li Mo had already come downstairs and was following her from behind at the entrance of the corridor.

It's not that Kikyo Kushida is blind and can't see it at all; it's just that Li Mo is cheating on ordinary people again. With the Zoldyck family's techniques for concealing their presence, even without the added bonus of Nen, his disguise skills are world-class, even beyond the level of the Academy of Honourables.

In the world of "Hunter x Hunter," the Zoldyck family is known as the world's number one assassin family. They are able to obtain this title, which is a death sentence for ordinary assassins, among those with strange Nen abilities and various powerful countries. They also openly own a large territory and mountains. The Zoldyck family can value and teach their descendants assassination and stealth techniques. Ordinary people would definitely not be able to detect their situation at all. Even the world's top special forces soldiers may not be able to detect anything unusual.

So the two of them walked one after the other, with Kikyo Kushida hurrying ahead and Li Mo following leisurely behind, taking advantage of his concealment. Moreover, he wasn't foolish enough to follow directly on the asphalt road; he avoided the cameras and walked along the green belt.

Soon, Kikyo Kushida crossed the coastal park walkway, stopping at the safety railing as the cool sea breeze caressed her face. Before her lay the vast, calm sea.

This time, after looking around again to make sure no one was around, the short-haired beauty, who always appeared cheerful, cheerful, gentle, and kind in public, took a deep breath and let out a sound of annoyance that was completely out of character for her:

"Ugh! This is so annoying!"

At this moment, Li Mo stood in the green belt of the park's walking path more than 20 meters away, and saw the completely different Kushida Kikyo with great interest. He reached out and scratched his chin but did not immediately move forward.

As a transmigrator, Li Mo naturally knew that the situation where Kushida Kikyo was an angel like her classmates but had now become a different person was purely due to her dark history in junior high school. The originally helpful little angel had been used as a dumping ground for all sorts of negative information by too many so-called friends. She herself couldn't bear it and vented online, which was then discovered by her junior high school classmates.

Unlike Karuizawa Megumi, who was bullied by her classmates and unable to fight back, Kushida Kikyo, upon discovering that she was being criticized by her classmates and even teachers, didn't hesitate to make a huge blunder. Her girlfriend cheated on her, her best friend spoke ill of her, and all sorts of other negative news were directly exposed by the dark-hearted little angel. Her middle school class was thrown into chaos as a result, with scenes of mutual accusations, cursing, and even fighting becoming commonplace. It was only after causing the entire class to be suspended that Kushida Kikyo was assigned to Class D of the first year at [Advanced Educational High School]. Otherwise, she would have been a candidate for Class B or even Class A.

Even after being promoted to [Advanced Nurturing High School], Kikyo Kushida still wanted to be friends with everyone, but she didn't want to be discovered again for complaining online. She could only find opportunities to vent in private on the beach. She was also afraid that someone would expose her embarrassing history from junior high school. Therefore, when she saw her classmate Suzune Horikita, she tried her best to test her.

Right now, Kikyo Kushida is completely unaware of Li Mo's presence. Having finally found an opportunity to vent, she is eager to let out all her negative emotions, and her tone unconsciously becomes more and more fierce!

"She's just arrogant because she's cute, and she even has a guy to rely on. What an annoying vixen!"

"You have to study hard every day. If you don't do well, don't come to me. You bunch of idiots asking questions that have been explained so many times. Are your brains underdeveloped? You're all complete learning idiots!"

"And those filthy bastards, they wish they had eyes glued to my body, they're awful! Why don't you all just die?!"...

As Kikyo Kushida continued her tirade, she seemed to break down in her own defenses, starting to kick the safety fence in front of her with all her might, making the steel fence clang loudly. And she kicked harder and harder, as if she were on a deadly rhythm.

"Die! Die! Die!"

At this moment, Kikyo Kushida took off her usual angelic mask and directly revealed her dark side, venting all the negative emotions she had accumulated over this period. Whether it was the so-called superficial friendship with Suzune Horikita, or the unpleasant feelings about other students in Class D studying or wanting to confess to her, the angelic side would never do anything negative. However, she deliberately chose the quiet of the night to vent her accumulated negative emotions.

However, just as Kikyo Kushida was venting her negative emotions and stopped because she felt a little out of breath, an uncontrollable, mocking laugh rang out from behind her, causing her expression to change drastically:

"Pfft~!"

……

This soft laugh was like a thunderclap from a clear sky to Kikyo Kushida!

While it may seem exaggerated, the human spirit is actually not as resilient as they imagine.

For many people, the mere thought of someone suddenly jumping out from behind them is enough to startle them, let alone when they are completely relaxed and believe that there is no one else around except themselves, only to suddenly discover that there are other people there.

To use a somewhat inappropriate analogy, it's like many people are relaxing on their sofa at home, and suddenly someone pats them hard on the shoulder from behind. This would definitely scare them quite a bit, and elderly people with heart problems might even have a heart attack from the fright.

Similarly, when watching horror movies, many people are prepared in their minds, but they can still be frightened by the atmosphere created by the horror movie. It is also easy for a person to scare themselves when walking alone at night. And when they are caught off guard and suddenly startled, it is not impossible for them to have a sudden cardiac arrest.

Right now, Kikyo Kushida is in a similar situation... well, it's more like it's even more dangerous than cardiac arrest!

"Who—?!"

Like a kitten whose tail has been stepped on, Kikyo Kushida turned around abruptly with lightning speed, shouting as she tried to create distance, forgetting that there was a seaside railing behind her.

state!

Kikyo Kushida's slender waist collided directly with the metal guard bar, producing a dull thud.

Using her body to resist the metal railing, Kikyo Kushida instinctively tensed her body and screamed in pain. Her body, still inertia, leaned backward, and she fell straight over the railing like a sawed tree.

Outside the metal railing, the unfathomable sea appears exceptionally deep, with reefs visible below, making one anticipate the tragedies of falling from a height of tens of meters!

Even well-trained soldiers would have to leave their fate to chance in such a situation, or immediately pray that if they fell, they wouldn't die too badly. But Kikyo Kushida, being a smart and beautiful girl, naturally knew what would happen if she fell, and a high-pitched scream immediately rang out.

It felt like an instant, yet also like ten thousand years. In her panic, Kikyo Kushida felt as if she were about to fall and die an ugly death. But before she could actually fall, she felt her hand being grabbed and she was pulled back up!

"Watch out! Don't let go!"

Li Mo stepped forward in time and grabbed Kushida Kikyo's hand. With a gentle pull of just the right amount of force, he easily pulled Kushida Kikyo back from the brink of falling into the sea. His warning was practically a reminder to the beautiful girl. With a tug, Kushida Kikyo, whose body had already flown halfway over the metal railing, was pulled back and landed almost collapsing.

For Kikyo Kushida, the near-death experience of almost falling and becoming a corpse was too terrifying. Even after she was back on solid ground, she still looked terrified!

(I feel this picture suits her best)

Chapter 24 Enjoyment and Leisure

"Hey~! Wake up, you're saved~!"

Seeing that Kikyo Kushida looked shaken, Li Mo had no choice but to wave his hand in front of her eyes a few times and call out to her.

"Uh……"

At this moment, Kikyo Kushida finally managed to come to her senses. She blinked and recalled everything that had just happened. Her expression changed like a face-changing act, from red to green and then to a fierce look. She was about to shout at Li Mo with a menacing posture, "W-why are you here?!"

When she said these words, Kikyo Kushida was clearly not confident. Not only had she just been saved by Li Mo, but he was also a freshman monster in the eyes of the upperclassmen and a super demon king in the eyes of the freshmen of the same year!

It should be said that Li Mo's story of challenging a dojo on the first day of school had spread to the first-year students after almost two months. After learning about his deeds, Kikyo Kushida and some well-informed people looked at Li Mo with a hint of awe. She and those smart people were not stupid. They naturally knew that the fighting clubs of [Advanced Training High School] were far superior to those of ordinary Japanese high schools. Any club would be considered a top contender in the national competition.

In other words, Li Mo easily picked several fighting clubs, and his fighting prowess was absolutely unmatched at [Advanced Training High School]. Smart people would naturally not offend him. Kushida Kikyo had always chosen to obey and would never disobey Li Mo's orders, which was because she knew how powerful he was!

"I?"

Seeing Kikyo's adorably angry expression, Li Mo pointed to himself and then looked at her with interest, saying, "I originally came out to buy something, but as soon as I left the dormitory building, I saw you storming over here, looking furious. I thought it might be something interesting, but it turns out you ran all the way here to secretly vent your negative emotions all by yourself..."

"You?! You just saw it all..."

Upon hearing Li Mo's words, Kikyo Kushida, who had removed her mask, changed her expression once again. Her pale complexion, which had just escaped death, turned pitch black. When she looked at Li Mo and asked for confirmation again, her tone seemed a little off. Even the fear she had shown towards Li Mo before seemed to have disappeared.

At this moment, any intelligent person could see that Kikyo Kushida was very concerned about the information she had just leaked. Her demeanor was completely different from her usual angelic self. It was as if she was venting her accumulated negative emotions. Letting others know would definitely ruin her image. Anyone who knew Kikyo Kushida's dark past would immediately understand why she was acting so strangely.
