There is something wrong with Hikigaya's classroom of supreme ability

"No, it's not that serious. I just think there's no need to put yourself in such a dilemma just for someone like me, an outsider in the class. It would be good for everyone to calm down for a while."

Hikigaya hurriedly explained, but Hiyori's face became even more dissatisfied and full of complicated expressions when she heard it: "Hikigaya-kun, have you noticed? Why do you always look down on yourself? Obviously... you are so gentle."

Looking at the young man in front of him, Ri Ran suddenly felt an inexplicable heartache.

"I, I'm just analyzing it from a rational perspective."

Hikigaya's expression remained calm: "Based on Ryuen's methods, I believe he treats men and women equally, so I don't want you, Hiyori, to get hurt because of me."

"Of course I know Ryuuen-kun's methods, and I also understand that you, Hikigaya-kun, are worried about my future situation."

Hiyori couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly when she said this, but she quickly returned to normal and said seriously: "But it is precisely because I know Ryuuen-kun's methods that I have to do this even more."

"Ok?"

Hikigaya was obviously stunned. Why did he insist on doing this even though he knew he would be rejected and hurt?

Suddenly, Hikigaya remembered what the girl once said, that she hoped to work hard with everyone in the class. From the beginning to the end, everything the girl in front of him did was for everyone in the class, not for any one person, let alone for herself.

So the reason why Hiyori is "disobeying" Ryuuen's orders is actually...

"It's to prevent the class from having only one voice, right?"

"Hikigaya-kun is really amazing!"

Hiyori was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but exclaim from the bottom of her heart: "It seems that everyone really underestimated Class D. I'm really afraid of facing Hikigaya-kun's Class D one day."

"Although having only one voice in the class can help to unite everyone and improve cohesion and efficiency, if there is no one to supervise or limit it, it will gradually turn into a dictatorship of one person."

At this point, Hiyori couldn't help but reveal a worried look. "Because Class C's situation is very special, Class C can't just have Ryuuen-kun's voice; we need others to have their voices as well. One day in the future, Ryuuen-kun might lead everyone in Class C down a certain path faster and faster, even losing control. When that day comes, I hope I can be the class's 'speed bump,' serving as everyone's last resort."

Hikigaya couldn't help but take a deep breath when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at the girl in front of him again. He was very surprised that Hiyori's "eyesight" was so sharp, and her vision and overall view were even more surprising.

But what impressed him even more was the 'self-sacrificing' spirit of Hiyori. You know, it is not an easy thing for a girl to stand up to a 'tyrant' like Ryuuen under such pressure.

Look at Ishizaki, Yamawaki and others, even the big black guy named Albert succumbed to Ryuen's violence, you can imagine how much psychological pressure Hiyori is under!

At the same time, the girl in front of him could be said to be the girl with the most thorough "big picture view" that Hikigaya had ever seen in this school!

Hikigaya completely agrees with Hiyori's statement that "a group cannot have only one voice."

People often believe that if everyone obeys the leader's command, they can unleash the collective's maximum strength 100%, which is the result under ideal conditions.

But the reality is that having only one voice in a group often does more harm than good.

It's similar to what Hikigaya and Haruno discussed about Class A. Unity will survive if it is achieved through struggle, but it will die if it is achieved through compromise.

This is where the balance between the collective and the individual becomes difficult. Simply put, there must be unity as a whole and struggle within the local area. This is the true social and political ecology, not a group of high school students playing house here!

At least in the case of Class C, Hiyori's idea is completely fine. There must be someone who can hold Ryuuen back at a critical moment, and is also the "key insurance" to prevent Class C from getting out of control.

As for the situation of Class D, Hikigaya believes that it is another matter of discussion. Class D now has too many voices and is too chaotic. What it needs is a "tough guy" like Ryuuen. Hirata's methods are still too gentle.

"It seems that the presence of Hiyori in Class C is what the other classes should really worry about!"

Hikigaya couldn't help but sigh. If Class C had been led by a guy like Ryuuen for three years, to be honest, Hikigaya thought that there wouldn't be much of a threat at all. At most, it would be a flash in the pan and then quickly decline.

But if there is a being like Hiyori, then it is hard to say.

Hiyori blushed upon hearing what Hikigaya said and said sheepishly, "Actually... I've only read about this in books. I happened to find the situation in Class C very similar to the plot in a novel I'd read before. I'm just copying it, so I'm not that great at all."

"No, this is actually more admirable. Being able to apply what you've learned to real life is already more impressive than many people."

Hikigaya spoke the truth.

"whee."

When Hiyori heard Hikigaya's sincere praise, even though she was usually a reserved girl, she couldn't help but smile proudly.

“In fact, it’s not just this reason…”

Hiyori said a little embarrassedly: "Hikigaya-kun, do you remember the accident that happened in the library?"

Library, accident?

Hikigaya suddenly recalled the scene when they first met, and subconsciously touched his nose, then saw Hiyori's cheek across from him suddenly turn red.

Uh... Come to think of it, even now when Hikigaya thinks back to that accident in the library, he still finds it incredibly outrageous.

"Every time I think about what happened that day, I always feel so sorry for Hikigaya-kun. I feel so guilty, so I've always wanted to treat Hikigaya-kun to a meal as an apology."

For some reason, Hiyori felt very excited when she said this, and looked eager to try it out.

"I see."

Then Hikigaya's face turned strange. Eating with a girl, no, no, this is a treatment only for real people!

As for before...that was of course an accident!

"Well, how about..."

Hikigaya had just said half of his words when the expression on the girl opposite him became visibly depressed. Even her eyes, which were as bright as the stars in the night sky, dimmed. The originally cheerful aura around the girl suddenly turned colder.

"Okay, fine, I promise."

In the end, the boy couldn't be so cruel as to let the 'girl be disappointed and sad'.

Upon hearing this, the girl excitedly grabbed the boy's wrist, her eyes sparkling.

79

Chapter 18 plus cavalry.

On the other side, after driving Hikigaya away, Ishizaki and Ibuki also hurriedly left, fearing that they would be caught by the angry Hiyori if they stayed for even a second longer. Naturally, they did not notice that the girl had already disappeared.

But after coming out of the library, Ishizaki has been acting a little strange and silent.

"Hey, Ibuki!"

Suddenly, Ishizaki stopped and called out to the short-blue-haired girl in front of him. The girl glared at him impatiently, as if to say, "If you have something to say, just say it quickly!"

"Did you hear what that guy named Hikigaya said in the library just now?"

Ishizaki scratched his head and looked at Ibuki with a questioning look.

Ibuki fell silent. Seeing this, Ishizaki's face lit up and he quickly said, "So you heard it too! So the school actually has a hidden method of using past exam papers. If we get the past exam papers, then we don't have to worry about failing the exam and getting expelled!"

Of course, the more important reason is that he doesn't have to study so hard every day, escape from the sea of suffering, and move towards a happy life. However, he is embarrassed to say this reason out loud, as it would make him look like a waste.

Ishizaki thought Ibuki would be as excited as he was, but to his surprise, Ibuki looked impatient: "So what! I can pass the exam on my own even without the past exam questions. I'm not interested in cheating like this!"

"what?"

Ishizaki's face was filled with confusion. He asked, bewildered, "Why? Didn't that guy also say that the school doesn't have clear rules about this? This means that this is a loophole that anyone can exploit. If we don't use it, then those guys in Class D will definitely use it. If anyone in our class drops out, we'll lose a full 300 class points. We might even drop from Class C to Class D!"

There is a shortcut, why not use it? Ishizaki doesn't understand Ibuki's idea.

Ishizaki's logic is not wrong. If this rule is put here, the upper class will naturally disdain to use it, but the two lower classes, Class C and Class D, have to consider it. Class C is "self-righteous" and unwilling to "take shortcuts", but Class D does not think so. The consequence may be that Class C will be overtaken by Class D!

Ibuki naturally understood this principle. It was correct to consider it from the perspective of the class's interests, but he did not like it from a personal perspective.

"Hey, Ishizaki, didn't you consider that this was a trap?!"

Ibuki poured cold water on him without hesitation: "Don't forget that this news came from that dead-eyed guy. It would be very easy for him to tamper with it."

"Eh? Is it a trap?"

Ishizaki was visibly stunned for a moment, but then shook his head. "That's not right. Just like that dead-eyed guy said, we just need to confirm this with the senior students. We can't have every senior student in cahoots with him, right?"

"If it were Long Yuan-san, he would definitely agree to this without hesitation!"

Ishizaki is full of confidence and is also the biggest support. Now Class C is dominated by Ryuen, who is the local emperor. As long as Ryuen agrees, no one will object.

"Hmph! If you want to do it, go ahead! Anyway, I've already warned you, so I don't care what happens next!"

Ibuki also understood that as long as Ryuuen spoke, there would be no suspense, so he simply ignored it and left after saying something.

Ishizaki ignored Ibuki's attitude, took out his cell phone and excitedly reported the matter to Ryuen, but when his finger was about to dial the number, he suddenly stopped and chose another contact instead.

"Hello, Albert? I need your help with something..."

……

In a coffee shop called RH in the Beech Shopping Center, a boy with dead eyes looked restless, completely different from the teenager. The girl opposite him was holding a rabbit-shaped menu and flipping through the dishes on it with excitement.

Hikigaya looked around this cafe, which he didn't know which one it was in the Keyaki shopping center. In short, the overall style was very much inclined towards cute girls. At the same time, the cafe was filled with a lot of rabbit elements, so... the main audience of this cafe is basically girls who like cute style.

In fact, the proportion of girls in this cafe is indeed very high, which is why Hikigaya is so restless.

At the same time, in this cafe, Hikigaya also met an unexpected person, Koenji!

In the distance, Koenji seemed to be on a date with a girl who looked to be a senior. The two of them were being quite affectionate and unscrupulously engaging in all sorts of intimate behaviors in public, including but not limited to drinking from the same straw, the girl hand-feeding him food, his snow-white thighs resting on someone else's body, and even kissing. Kissing on the mouth?!

This scene was too erotic for the Lone Ranger. One could even see that Kouenji's hands were very naughty. The senior student even winked at him and made an ambiguous sound.

How can this be labeled 18+? Oh, and remember to add the cavalry system!

"Hikigaya-kun, what are you looking at?"

"No, no!"

Hikigaya quickly looked away. In fact, this was not the first time Hikigaya saw Koenji dating a girl. He could occasionally see similar erotic scenes on the campus road, and... the girls were different every time!

A true Aquaman!

These girls are basically seniors who are about to graduate. Hikigaya can probably guess what they are thinking. Since they can't be a person who believes in the supremacy of strength, then being a person who believes in the supremacy of reality is another way out.

"This Rabbit Cafe is very popular among girls. I often hear classmates say that their Blue Mountain coffee and chestnut yokan are famous..."

Hiyori was looking through the menu with excitement. Hiyori, who was so gentle and quiet in the library, was unexpectedly lively at this moment. She could clearly feel the ups and downs of the girl's emotions, which was completely different from her usual self.

Suddenly, a possibility occurred to Hikigaya, and he looked strange: "Hiyori, could it be that you really wanted to come to this store, so you specially dragged me along?"

So all the previous things about resisting Longyuan and apologizing were just excuses?

The smile on the girl's face froze instantly, and then she slowly buried her head in the menu, not daring to look at Hikigaya at all.

"Sorry, I, I've always heard from the girls in my class that this place is very popular and a lot of people like it, so I've always thought that I must try it if I have the chance, but, but..."

The girl's voice came intermittently, and one could also hear that she was feeling guilty.

To some extent, Hiyori and Hikigaya are very similar people. They have no friends and no social life, so they have an inexplicable "fear" of going to a cafe alone.

Just like they would rather go to a convenience store than go shopping alone in a shopping mall, and just like ramen restaurants are absolutely forbidden for girls.

Therefore, Hikigaya understood Hiyori's psychology at this moment very well.

"Next time, just ask me."

The boy couldn't help but whispered.

"Hey! Really?"

Hiyori suddenly stuck half of her head out from behind the menu and looked at Hikigaya in surprise.

Hikigaya nodded stiffly with an expressionless face, and the girl couldn't help but let out a cheer of joy.

After untying the knot in her heart, Hiyori seemed particularly lively. Then, while waiting for the meal to be served, Hiyori looked around curiously at the decoration style of the store and the students around her.

For some reason, the girl's face began to turn red slowly, and her excited smile slowly turned into silence. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look directly at the boy opposite her.

The girl's sudden change naturally caught Hikigaya's attention. Just as he was about to ask, he was suddenly stunned. His face suddenly became strange, and he was silent for a moment.

"Hiyori, how about we go somewhere else?"

Hikigaya looked embarrassed.

"Yes, but..."

Hiyori's face was full of reluctance, but... the atmosphere in the store was too ambiguous!

No wonder the girls in my class say this cafe is very popular!

No wonder that guy Kouenji chose to date here!

It wasn't until now that they realized this cafe was actually a couple's cafe?!

Hikigaya and Hiyori's eyes met, and the next second, they both looked away at the same time, and the atmosphere between them gradually became strange.

So the boy decided to do something...

"Hiyori, have you heard of Q-baby? Oh, you might not understand this, but it's actually Pretty Cure!"
