The most outstanding Class A is equivalent to a person named Kōhei Katsuragi.
Because he had obtained some information about Class A from Haruno, Hikigaya was very clear that once this stereotype was formed, the 'leaders' within Class A would become one leader, and Katsuragi would gain a greater advantage, perhaps even a decisive victory.
"What a plan! Kill two birds with one stone."
Hikigaya couldn't help but admire the ability of this student named Katsuragi Kōhei, who was able to undermine the image of other classes while establishing enough prestige for himself.
"Asshole! Say that again?!"
"Who are you? Watch out or I'll beat you up!"
Whether it was Sudo, Ishizaki, or Yamawaki, they were clearly at loggerheads with each other just a second ago, but the next second they all turned their spearheads towards Katsuragi, or his stupid teammate Totsuka.
Katsuragi himself has outstanding abilities, but unfortunately he has a terrible teammate by his side, Yahiko Totsuka, his most loyal supporter who has been almost inseparable from Katsuragi since the start of school.
Because of Katsuragi's powerful aura, his natural status advantage as a Class A student, and his 'correct' rebuke from a moral high ground, the arrogance of Sudo, Ishizaki and the others had been severely suppressed. According to normal expectations, this library incident should have ended here, and Katsuragi would have gained huge fame.
But Totsuka's sudden words aroused the anger of Sudo, Ishizaki and others. He could have kept silent or just wait and see, but he just mocked Sudo, Ishizaki and others with a smug look on his face. This is something his uncle can tolerate, but his aunt cannot!
It was even because of Totsuka's words that Sudo, Ishizaki and others temporarily united to attack Katsuragi, making the situation even more confusing.
Totsuka was startled by the sudden attack from Sudo and Ishizaki, and he took a few steps back. Then he heard the loud laughter of Ishizaki and Yamawaki.
Totsuka felt his face burning. He was actually frightened by the guy whom he regarded as "trash". Coupled with the gazes of the people around him, Totsuka was suddenly enraged.
"You useless losers from Class C and Class D, how dare you defy me, a member of Class A?!"
Totsuka's face was ferocious, and his condescending attitude also caused dissatisfaction among many people.
But compared to Katsuragi, Totsuka was far inferior in terms of aura and control over the situation. It was obviously Katsuragi who took control of the situation, but in Totsuka's mouth it became his credit.
"Using Class A's identity as a means of attack is truly unwise!"
Hikigaya shook his head.
"Eh? Why?"
Suddenly, an unexpected voice sounded behind Hikigaya. Hikigaya turned around and found that it was Kamuro. Kamuro raised his eyebrows, then turned to nod to Hiyori beside him, which was also a greeting to the other party.
Hikigaya hadn't wanted to say it, but Kamuro and Hiyori were staring at him. After mentally cursing himself, Hikigaya had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain, "Class A is naturally the highest status symbol in this school, but for us, who have only just started, it's not only intimidating but will only backfire and cause resentment from other classes."
"Because people are rebellious, I believe that in the first grade, whether it's Class B, Class C, or even our Class D, many people probably have a lot of opinions and hostility towards Class A being rated as 'the best'."
Hikigaya said solemnly, "Because we've just started school, we can't feel the 'real gap' yet."
"Tsk, but last month's class points already showed the disparity!"
Kamuro obviously disagreed with Hikigaya's statement.
Hikigaya didn't refute Kamuro, but simply continued, "That's true, but awe is born from victory after victory. We've only been in high school for a month now. Do you think we have awe?"
This time, Kamuro was silent.
"So when Katsuragi-san just now scolded Ishizaki and Yamawaki-kun from our class, he chose to start from the moral order and rules of society instead of using his status as Class A to teach them a lesson?"
Hiyori said, "I understand," and then couldn't help but praise: "Hikigaya-kun, you are really amazing."
Hikigaya tightened his face, trying his best not to reveal his inner smugness.
Kamuro snorted coldly upon seeing this.
So when Totsuka opened his mouth and brought out the identity of Class A in an attempt to overwhelm the others, it was obviously a bad move, as the gap between his rank and Katsuragi's was too big.
Hikigaya still remembered that Haruno had mentioned inadvertently that when the student council was recruiting new members, Totsuka was the first one to be eliminated. Now it seems that the president's decision was very reasonable.
Seeing the conflict between Totsuka, Sudo, Ishizaki and others getting more and more serious, Hikigaya covered his forehead and realized that he could not let them continue to make trouble. Although he did not want to "appear" in front of so many people, as a member of the student council, he had a certain obligation to deal with such matters.
But just as Hikigaya was about to leave, a girl with long pink hair appeared and ended the turmoil.
62
Chapter 62: Leaders.
"Okay, everyone stop!"
An unexpected girl appeared. The appearance of Ichinose Honami immediately separated the three people who were on the verge of a fight. Although they seemed to have done nothing, Ishizaki and Yamawaki from Class C and Totsuka from Class A unexpectedly chose to give in.
This result obviously surprised many people.
"Who are you? Get out of here, don't meddle in my business!"
Sudo obviously didn't recognize Ichinose in front of him, and he didn't even notice the changes in the expressions of Ishizaki, Totsuka and others. He was just like a mad dog as always, biting everyone he saw. He was a bit like a certain "tyrant", the only difference was that one had no brains and the other had brains.
At this time, Kushida in the crowd also hurried out and grabbed the corner of Sudo's clothes, hoping that he would stop making trouble. It was unknown whether it was because he was afraid of Ichinose in front of him or he really wanted to persuade Sudo.
"It doesn't matter who I am. I'm just an ordinary student using the library. It's normal for conflicts to arise between classmates, but if they spread and affect people around them, I'm sorry, I can't just sit back and watch."
Even facing Sudō's aggressive tone, Ichinose remained calm and composed, but her calm exterior didn't betray her weakness: "Red-haired student, if you insist on continuing to resort to violence, I'd like to resolve this outside the library, or simply call it a day."
"Ichinose is right, the guys from Class D..."
Ishizaki and Yamawaki wanted to take the opportunity to mock her, but Ichinose suddenly turned around and saw the unfriendly expression on the girl's face. They were suddenly speechless. It seemed that they had dealt with Ichinose before and knew how powerful she was. They had even suffered a lot of losses, so they did not go up and make trouble for themselves.
Ichinose finally looked in the direction of Katsuragi. Perhaps Totsuka knew how powerful Ichinose was, but he had already hidden behind Katsuragi.
Ichinose and Katsuragi just stared at each other, and in the end neither of them spoke. However, when Ichinose turned around, Katsuragi couldn't help but frown, and Totsuka behind him looked as if he had done something wrong and didn't dare to speak.
After being scolded by Ichinose, Ishizaki and Yamawaki looked at each other and saw the other's helplessness, and then they had to leave in disappointment. As for Katsuragi, he also left the library with Totsuka.
As for Sudo who had lost his target, he did not continue to make a fuss. After glaring at Horikita, he also left the library with a gloomy face. Seeing this, Ike, Yamauchi and others hurriedly followed him and left, as if they were afraid of getting into trouble.
This riot, which was caused by Class D and Class C and interfered with by Class A, was perfectly resolved by Ichinose from Class B. It can be said that the development and twists of the matter were beyond imagination.
In this storm, everyone remembered the names of Kōhei Katsuragi and Honami Ichinose. Of course, judging from the final result, it was obvious that the latter received more attention.
Seeing this, Ichinose slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he seemed calm and composed just now, Ichinose was still a little nervous inside. If he couldn't handle it well, it would make the already complicated situation worse and even put himself in a dilemma. Fortunately, the final result was good.
However, the pink-haired girl did not consider that she did not need to get involved in this matter and involve herself. If she chose to sit on the other side of the river and watch the fire from the other side, she would not have to bear such pressure and the consequences of failure from the perspective of reason and interests.
However, in hindsight, Ichinose has now perfectly resolved a riot that could have developed into a multi-party violent conflict. Her name and deeds will also be spread throughout the grade, which is undoubtedly a kind of invisible wealth and strength.
The innocent girl didn't have so many calculations in her mind, she was just acting out of her instinctive sense of justice and kindness.
At this time, Ichinose came in front of Horikita and others.
"Hello, I'm Ichinose from Class B. I know it might be inappropriate to interfere in other classes' affairs, but I believe that since we're all classmates, we should help each other, understand each other, and support each other. You might think I'm meddling, so I'm truly sorry if this has caused any trouble."
Ichinose suggested to Horikita sincerely.
Ayanokouji, Kushida and others were silent, as was Horikita. Although she was cold and kept people at a distance, it didn't mean that she couldn't feel that the girl in front of her was being kind and sincere, without a trace of malice.
But the more this happened, the more Horikita felt a sense of powerlessness that was difficult for others to understand, and for the first time, she began to waver in her actions.
Horikita has always been "not against people but against things". Her calm and rational nature makes people unconsciously want to distance themselves from her. From another perspective, it is because she lacks empathy, so Hikigaya feels that Horikita is very similar to himself in some ways.
Not far away, Hikigaya looked at Horikita who was lost in thought, and felt as if he was seeing his past self, who had done similar things and the consequences were almost exactly the same.
After Ichinose left, Kushida and Horikita seemed to be talking to each other. Then Kushida lowered his head and ran out of the library as if he was bullied by Horikita.
Even though the commotion was over, Hikigaya was still staring at Horikita, Kushida and the others. Seeing this, Kamuro felt a surge of annoyance.
"Hey, have you seen enough? It's all over! Are those girls really that pretty? I'm staring at them..."
"I'm not saying hello. Also, why are you still here, Kamuro?"
"Huh? Good for you, Hikigaya..."
Kamuro's eyes widened, as if they were about to spit fire.
"I mean, Katsuragi has left, is it really okay for you to stay here?"
Hikigaya said quickly.
Kamuro was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "You..."
Kamuro really wanted to ask Hikigaya why he knew that she was following and monitoring Katsuragi, but it was so embarrassing that Hikigaya had discovered and seen through her many times, so Kamuro didn't have the face to ask.
"Actually... I wasn't quite sure at first."
Hikigaya looked cautiously at a certain purple-haired girl who looked like she wanted to eat someone.
Who knew that he would be exposed immediately after just a little deception? Hikigaya could only say this silently in his heart.
"..."
Kamuro suddenly wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
"After the school announced the truth about the S-System, Katsuragi should have the upper hand in the class, right? With that little scoundrel's personality, he's definitely not going to give in, right?"
Hikigaya is not a student of Class A, but he seems to know the situation of Class A better than anyone else. "I didn't think that way at first, but after Katsuragi appeared, Kamuro appeared right after. And the position you are standing now is just right to monitor Katsuragi without being discovered by him. It's too coincidental. Then, test..."
Hikigaya didn't say anything else to save Kamuro's face.
After a moment of silence, Kamuro looked at Hikigaya strangely:
"Hikigaya, could it be... are you a pervert?"
"...cough cough cough"
Hikigaya nearly choked and retorted, "You're the pervert!"
Can they talk? My eyes have a lot of DHA, but it's not abnormal, right?
"Forget it! In that case, I'll leave first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kamuro couldn't wait to turn around and leave.
"You two have such a good relationship~"
At this time, Hiyori, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke, with a hint of envy and an imperceptible hint of sourness in her tone.
"I've met Kamuro no more than three times."
Hikigaya smiled wryly and said, "But Shiina-san, you look like you know Kamuro?"
"Yeah, I know that girl, but she probably doesn't know me very well."
Hiyori answered truthfully.
"?"
"At the beginning of the school year, I saw her many times in the library. Hikigaya-kun was there too! Now that I think about it, it's a coincidence. It seems that every time I see Hikigaya-kun, I always see that girl."
Hiyori frowned and tried to recall, then looked embarrassed: "But at that time I was very shy and didn't dare to say hello to you."
"..."
"Shiina-san, promise me not to tell Kamuro about this."
Hikigaya's face was serious.

Chapter 63: Late Night Ramen.
"Hey, Hikigaya, come out and eat ramen with me! I'm starving!"
"Come on, my dear teacher, don't you see the time? It's so late and you're dragging your students out to eat ramen? You can handle it by yourself!"
"What? You're letting a young, single woman eat ramen alone? You'll never find a girlfriend like that!"
"Sorry, I have Komachi and that's all I need."
"Damn it, I forgot you're a sister-con freak!"
The voice of an older unmarried woman gnashed her teeth from the other end of the phone. "I don't care. I'll give you 15 minutes. I want to see you in front of the ramen shop, otherwise... hehe, you know what I mean!"
"Wait, I'm still a kid, I don't understand!"
But the person on the other end of the phone had already hung up. Hikigaya jumped out of the bed angrily, complaining about someone's tyranny and unreasonableness while quickly changing into casual clothes.
"You deserve to fail every time you go on a blind date. You're an older, single woman who can only threaten students with your fists. What man would like you like that? Only someone like me would pay attention to you!"
Hikigaya looked up at the time hanging on the wall. It was already 21: PM.
"Teacher Jing is really something. She doesn't eat on time. This is very harmful to her health."
Hikigaya muttered.
15 minutes later, Hikigaya arrived at the ramen restaurant that Teacher Jing mentioned on the phone. The store was still open late at night, and its customers were basically people working on this artificial island.
Simply put, they are workers, but because they have signed confidentiality agreements with companies and schools, these people will not disclose the situation of Gaodu Development High School to the outside world.
"Here, here!"
