Strategy! Welcome to the Free Haremism Classroom

Only chess.

Only the interference of chess is too great. To put it bluntly, this can completely turn into a battle between command towers.

Horikita glanced at Kiyotaka without leaving a trace.

I already have some ideas in my mind.

However, Horikita's question received no response. Everyone in the class looked at each other in bewilderment, and no one raised their hand.

Horikita sighed softly.

"Really? I see. This is a really tiring answer. We can't ignore any of these ten exams..."

Horikita no longer dwelled on the test items announced by Class A, but instead began to communicate through the chat group with those who expressed their determination to win.

The progress was considerable. Horikita got a pleasant answer, which made her further discover that the students in Class C actually had great potential. Many of them had shining points in certain aspects that others could not match.

This exam is not a sure thing.

----

At seven o'clock in the evening, Qinglong's terminal rang.

It's Horikita.

"Hello? What's wrong?"

Kiyotaka was a little confused and didn't know why Horikita called him at this time.

"Come to my room for a moment. I have something to discuss with you."

Horikita didn't hesitate and directly stated her purpose.

Qinglong pondered for a moment.

"okay, I get it."

It didn't take long for Kiyotaka to appear in Horikita's room.

Horikita pulled him in with a smile on her face.

As soon as he entered the room, Kiyotaka smelled curry.

"Sit down for a while, we'll be eating soon."

Kiyotaka looked at Horikita suspiciously.

"Again?"

"What's coming again?"

Horikita asked with the smile still on her face.

Kiyotaka smiled and shook his head.

"Nothing, I'll wait."

Looking at Horikita's busy figure, Kiyotaka couldn't help but smile.

Although Horikita said several times that she would cook for Kiyotaka.

But every time I was doing something else, I would move on to something else.

This seemed to be the first time I smelled the aroma of food.

"What are you laughing at? It's so sinister and creepy."

Horikita asked in confusion.

"Nothing, I was just thinking that the clothes under this apron are too much of a nuisance..."

Kiyotaka rarely joked with Horikita.

"Go to hell, I called you here because I have something serious to discuss."

Horikita glanced at Kiyotaka.

"At least... let's talk about it after we finish talking."

Qing Long heard it, but he pretended not to hear it and asked.

"What? I didn't hear you clearly. Can you please say it again?"

Horikita looked at the smile on Kiyotaka's face and knew that he was pretending, so she immediately rolled her eyes at Kiyotaka coquettishly.

"I said the meal is ready, come and help!"

When the meal was served, Kiyotaka looked at Horikita with some surprise.

"I didn't expect it to be so well made and smell so good."

"What kind of person am I in your eyes? I have always lived my life on the premise that I need to be independent. This is just a small matter."

"Oh~ Is it because Horikita Manabu is in this school?"

Upon hearing this, Horikita twisted her hand around Kiyotaka's waist.

"That was in the past! What if you don't know who it is now?"

Qinglong immediately showed a sign of surrender.

"I'll shut up."

Hearing this, Horikita stood on tiptoe and kissed Kiyotaka.

"That's called being soft-hearted."

Qinglong shook his head helplessly and laughed.

Horikita seems to be becoming more and more relaxed.

Chapter 248 Teach Me Step by Step

After eating this delicious meal, Horikita's true colors were revealed.

Although it is not necessary to do this, this may be what Horikita does.

Horikita took out a notebook and handed it to Kiyotaka.

"This is what I've been thinking about these past few days. It may be a more suitable exam item for Class C. Do you have any questions?"

But after Kiyotaka took the notebook, he turned it upside down on the table and pulled Horikita into his arms with one hand.

"What are you doing...Didn't I tell you? Let's talk business first."

Kiyotaka ignored Horikita's struggles and held her in his arms with a tough attitude, placing his hands on her temples.

"It's one thing for you to want to prove yourself, but it's another to get enough rest. Your dark circles have become visibly heavier in the past few days."

Feeling the strength of Kiyotaka's massage on his temples, Horikita couldn't help but relax.

She thought Qinglong wanted to do something bad to her.

But I didn't expect that I was simply concerned about her health.

There's even some...heartache in it?

Feeling Kiyotaka's concern, Horikita felt happy inside. After enjoying Kiyotaka's service for a while, she took the initiative to kiss Kiyotaka.

After a passionate kiss, Horikita reluctantly left.

"Okay, let's get down to business first. Time is running out."

After seeing that Horikita looked a little better, Kiyotaka let her go and picked up the notebook on the table to read it carefully.

After a few days of discussion, Horikita had a general understanding of the strengths of the class members, but perhaps because he had to fill in ten must-win items, he was still a little stretched, so the conspicuous 'rock-paper-scissors' test at the end made Kiyotaka a little amused.

Fortunately, Horikita recorded the participants and their special features in great detail for the rest of the exams. Although Kiyotaka also participated in the screen-peek discussion group, this was the first time he saw such a detailed introduction.

Seeing Kiyotaka turning the pages faster and faster, Horikita also expressed his thoughts.

"I don't know if you've learned about the students in your class, but I think this notebook should make it easier for you to exercise your control tower authority, right?"

Qinglong nodded affirmatively.

"Well... this really helps me understand the situation in the class better."

When Horikita heard Kiyotaka's affirmation, there was no joy on her face. Instead, she looked at Kiyotaka with some confusion.

"But...are you sure you want me to write the conditions for the tower's intervention? I think you'd be more comfortable doing that yourself."

Kiyotaka reached out and mercilessly pinched Horikita's face, and only let go when Horikita looked at him with resentment and displeasure.

"Haven't I given you full authority? You've done a great job so far. You can just treat it as a practice. Just do as you like. I trust you."

Horikita rubbed her red face and glanced at Kiyotaka.

"You mean you are determined to win no matter what the conditions of the interference are? That's a boast, Qinglong."

"Did I say that? But I do have a favor to ask of you."

"Hmm? You have something to ask of me?"

Horikita looked at Kiyotaka with a very surprised look.

"Class A has a chess event, right? If chess is selected for the competition, I would like you to participate as a participant."

"Me? I only know a little bit about chess. There's no way I can win."

Horikita looked at Kiyotaka with some suspicion.

"I will train you, and there is no need to say that you have the strong ability to win..."

"What do you mean? Let me participate but I don't have to win. This is too contradictory."

Kiyotaka shook his head.

"In your notes, you also emphasized your interference with the rules of chess. Obviously, you are also worried about excessive interference in this project."

Horikita admitted, nodding readily.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is Sakayanagi telling me that she wants to decide the outcome of this game of chess, because this level of interference can completely determine the outcome of a game of chess."

Horikita immediately showed an expression that said, "As expected."

"You really did choose Class A to compete with on purpose."

This was an idea Horikita had been harboring for a long time, but she was only able to confirm it after Kiyotaka's admission just now.

Kiyotaka looked at Horikita's serious eyes and nodded without hiding anything.

"Although you have joined the student council, you seem to have been sidelined since this semester. Nanyun Masa's power in the second grade is even greater than expected. To defeat such a Nanyun Masa, the forces under my command must not be too weak. And Sakayanagi Arisu is a very powerful chess piece..."

"Just a pawn?"

Horikita stared at Kiyotaka suspiciously.

"maybe."

Horikita was obviously not satisfied with Kiyotaka's ambiguous answer, but now was not the time to be entangled.

"I understand. I accept your training. To put it bluntly, I am the one who will deploy the troops at the beginning, and I trust you 100%. Am I right?"

"I can't deny it..."

Kiyotaka laughed softly.

Horikita stood up and slowly sat down in Kiyotaka's arms, with tenderness in her eyes.

"I don't mind being your pawn. I'll be satisfied as long as I can help you. But I hope you won't hide things from me anymore. If you have anything to discuss with me, can you?"

Kiyotaka stared at Horikita's pretty face for a long time before giving a reply.

"Then you need to become stronger... You need to get out of being my pawn and become the person standing beside me. By then, you will know what I want to do without me even having to say anything."

Hearing this, Horikita suddenly realized that he had been looking at things too narrowly.

Instead of just asking Qinglong for details, it would be better to see with your own eyes what kind of help Qinglong really needs.

This is the real help.

"Well...now I see what you need."

Horikita smiled coquettishly and teased Kiyotaka's face.

"Hmm? What do I need?"
