Yukinoshita let out a soft breath and reached out to grab Chengshi tightly.
Cheng Shi grabbed her hand tightly and smiled encouragingly, "Keep it up."
Hearing the voice, Yukino chuckled softly: "What's there to cheer about? You already reminded me of that."
Then, the girl looked at Hayama and began to narrate in a calm tone.
"Back then, I encountered a similar situation. In elementary school, the people in my class disliked me, but I was too lazy to find out why."
It's nothing more than jealousy or something like that.
"In short, after that, those petty people who dared not confront things head-on resorted to insidious tactics."
“The number of things they did was countless, such as secretly hiding indoor shoes, recorders, and small notes.”
At this point, Yukinoshita couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly: "In the end, it was because I wasn't mature enough back then. Otherwise, I would have just grabbed one person and made an example of him."
Chapter 438 Reveals the Truth.
Noticing that the topic had gone astray, Yukinoshita subtly brought it back on track.
"At that time, Hayama was the only person I knew."
"Because our parents knew each other through work, he naturally became my friend since we attended the same primary school."
“At that time, he saw my predicament and took the opportunity to lend a helping hand.”
“I accepted it, I believed his method, and the end result was that I went abroad to study.”
At this point, Yukinoshita looked directly at him, at Hayama, who was in complete silence.
"His approach back then was similar to what we say now: get along well."
"I didn't understand back then, why?"
“I did nothing wrong. I didn’t do any of those things that could possibly make me deserve this.”
"They ostracize me, they're jealous of me, just because I don't fit in? Because I don't hang out with them and discuss childish things? Because I don't tell them what I don't like about this or that?"
"It's still the same now. I still don't fit in with them, but I live very comfortably on my own, and I live very comfortably with my boyfriend."
Hearing this, Cheng Shi smiled helplessly.
There's no need to add this at the end.
“I am very grateful for your mediation at that time. You said that we are all classmates and friends and should get along well.”
"But I never considered them friends, just classmates!"
"Then one day, because of something someone said, I understood."
He said: "You are someone chosen by the majority. You are suitable to be a friend, but not a friend with whom one can entrust their back."
"You think everyone's a friend, and that things can be easily resolved if you talk them out?"
"But you've overlooked one thing, you've overlooked my feelings. Did I suffer all that because I said I didn't want to be friends with them?"
"Was what I suffered something I deserved? Does becoming friends with them erase all the things they did?"
Each question was like a sharp needle, prying open the past hidden beneath the snow.
He also sewed away the apology that Ye Shan had promised, as well as the questions and arguments his friends had made to defend him.
"No, Hayama-kun, those will only become thorns piercing my heart."
At this point, Yukino took a deep breath, inhaling the emotions that had just been fluctuating.
Then, he exhaled a long breath, releasing all the pent-up frustration in his heart.
"This is what it means to get along well with others."
"I am the first person to implement your method."
"You are a good person, a good person chosen by the majority."
"If you use your method, you won't investigate who is right and who is wrong; you will only cater to the side with the larger number of people."
"Then, we went along with it." Yukinoshita's eyes were calm: "Forgive me for using such a bad word."
"But I believe that child will absolutely not choose you, just like just now."
After saying that, Yukino stood up: "Sorry, I need to leave for a while. I'll be back during my break, so don't worry about me."
Then, the girl prepared to turn and leave.
Hayama, who had been silent until now, finally uttered the words he had been wanting to say for a long time: "I'm sorry."
But it's too late.
The girl paused in her departure and turned back to look at Ye Shan.
"No need, Hayama-kun, I don't dislike you anymore."
I don't plan to expect anything from you, I don't plan to be friends with you, and I don't want to have much contact with you.
Yukinoshita left.
All that remained was a group of people, heavy-hearted, embarrassed, and surprised.
Of course, this does not include established beliefs.
Before they had even fully entered the forest, Cheng Shi had already gotten up and was ready to follow.
Seeing him stand up, Hayama, who was exhausted from Yukinoshita's words, immediately perked up again.
"Cheng Shi, can I ask you something?"
Cheng Shi didn't turn around; he knew what Ye Shan wanted to ask.
So he answered directly: "Hayama-kun, I'm different from you. I only care about the people I care about."
"If it were me, I would choose to firmly believe in her, and then turn around and tell her parents or my parents to come and help."
Well, in terms of protecting one's own, this is probably a family trait.
For example, Cheng Shi's current purpose.
Two-thirds of the people went there because of the girl, and one-third went there because of the group she mentioned.
He bullied his girlfriend and expects to get away with it?
There's no reason for it to be that cheap!
Cheng Shi then left as well.
Upon hearing his answer, Hayama finally understood why Yukino Yukinoshita liked him.
"That suits you perfectly."
The two of them.
After expressing these sentiments, Ye Shan fell silent.
He doesn't intend to get involved in how to handle Rumi Tsurumi's situation this time.
Just as Yukinoshita said, he had no ability and no way to achieve his goals.
The others exchanged glances in this atmosphere, unsure of what to say.
Finally, it was the sound of Hiratsuka-sensei lighting another cigarette that drew their attention.
"Whoosh~" Amidst the swirling smoke, Hiratsuka-sensei's calm voice reached everyone's ears: "That's enough for today. Everyone go back and rest."
After saying that, Hiratsuka Shizuka seemed to remember something and spoke again.
"Oh, right, Yui Yuigahama and Hachiman Hikigaya, you two keep an eye on those two guys and send them a message to come back when it's time."
"it is good."
The two agreed.
There's no other way; these two are the only ones who are really familiar with the other two.
After the teacher announced the dismissal, Hayama forced a smile and said that he was fine after Miura asked him worriedly, and then got up and walked towards the dormitory in the main building.
But looking at his bent-over, slightly tired appearance, he didn't seem to be alright at all.
Therefore, Miura's attention fell on the Ministry of Revenue.
But the Ministry of Revenue didn't need him to say anything more; he simply chased after Ye Shan with a determined look on his face.
Ultimately, what Yukinoshita just said was only her own view of Hayama.
What Hayama looks like in their eyes is something they have to see for themselves.
Totsuka, meanwhile, looked at Hikigaya and then at Hayama with a conflicted expression.
With friends on both sides, he was unsure which side to accompany.
Hachiman noticed his gaze.
Seeing that he was dressed in only thin clothes, Hikigaya advised, "Totsuka, go back to the dormitory. It's too cold here, and you don't have enough clothes."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wind from the plateau blew in response.
Chapter 439 Nothing Happened
As the wind blew, Totsuka also felt the chill.
