Hikigaya nodded. "Senior Handa, I sometimes need to deal with some student and club matters, so we became familiar with each other after a few visits."
"I see. However, Handa-san has always been quite a loner. Even among the second-year students now, not many can talk to him. It's incredible that you, a first-year student like Hikigaya, can become so familiar with him."
Tachibana Akane was surprised.
"Well... maybe everyone has similar personalities."
Hikigaya scratched his head. "Or maybe because I'm in Class D, they're willing to talk more."
Tachibana Akane nodded: "That makes sense. Handa-san was also promoted from Class D to Class C, so this might be a factor as well."
Kiyoshi Handa, Class 3-C, is a member of the student council. He is mainly responsible for handling and coordinating the affairs of the club.
"Come to think of it, the number of students in our school's student union is really small."
Hearing Hikigaya's words, Tachibana Akane couldn't help but smile bitterly. "It can't be helped. Our school's student union is different from that of ordinary schools out there. The more people there are, the more troublesome things become. So, a lot of things have to be done by ourselves. It's especially hard work for you first-year students like you, Hikigaya."
The student council of Koukou Ikusei High School is indeed very small. There is one president, two vice presidents, one secretary and one vice secretary, and the remaining four student council members, including Hikigaya and Haruno. Each of them is responsible for different matters, so the entire student council has only 9 people in total.
Although Hikigaya often complained that Haruno not only did not come to duty but also liked to push all the work to himself, he actually knew that Haruno was in charge of the student union and school affairs, and as for the third-year senior Handa, he was mainly in charge of club affairs.
Then the remaining one was a second-year girl. Like Hikigaya, she was the type who would do any odd jobs and accept any job. However, she was in charge of the second-year students, while Hikigaya was a first-year student. In short, she was just a brick in the student union, and she would be moved wherever she was needed.
So...what's the difference between this and the 'odd jobs' I used to do under Isshiki?
However, the position of deputy secretary is still vacant. According to Qian Ju, he was originally a student in Class B of Grade 8, but later voluntarily withdrew for some reason, so now there are only people in the entire student union.
After more than a month, Hikigaya has become generally familiar with the various operations of the student union, and at the same time he has vaguely noticed some disharmony within the student union.
In the third year, the president, Horikita Manabu, and the chief secretary, Tachibana Akane, undoubtedly hold the main decision-making power in the student council; in the second year, the vice presidents, Minamigumo Masaru and Kiriyama Ikuha, are said to be in charge of second year affairs. Hikigaya rarely sees these two "big shots", and rarely hears Horikita Manabu and Tachibana Akane mention them in the student council office, and their presence is almost completely ignored.
In the first year, Haruno and the 'odd jobs' Hikigaya, the grassroots work of the student union is basically done by Hikigaya. Of course, Tachibana Akane, as the 'direct superior', will also help, but in general, the work at the executive level is still done by the first-year Hikigaya.
It seems reasonable, but if you think about it carefully, you will find a very strange problem. The second graders have almost no sense of existence, as if they have a sense of "independence and autonomy".
The affairs of the second years are almost entirely handled by the two vice presidents, and Horikita Manabu, as the president, rarely interferes. On the contrary, Horikita Manabu is very concerned about the affairs of the first years.
A closer look reveals another suspicious point: both vice presidents are sophomores. If this were to balance the sophomore ratio, it'd be acceptable, but what's truly odd about Hikigaya is the ratio of third-years. From a power allocation perspective, a third-year would be the most appropriate vice president.
A simple calculation is that if the position of president is contested between the two vice presidents, Nanyun and Kiriyama, after Horikita Manabu retires, even if one loses, they will still retain the position of vice president, so...
"Tachibana-senpai, I have a question. How many vice presidents were there originally in the student council?"
Hikigaya asked curiously.
Upon hearing this, Tachibana Akane paused writing and looked at Hikigaya with surprise: "You, why would you ask such a question?"
Seeing Tachibana Akane's expression, Hikigaya had a vague idea of the answer and asked tentatively: "Three? Or has it always been only two?"
Tachibana Akane looked at her junior with a complicated expression, not knowing how to start. After a moment of contemplation, she said, "Hikigaya, you saw something, right?"
"Just a little curious."
"Actually, if you look at the list of past student councils, you can find it... It's in the third row, seventh book on the back shelf."
At this point, Ju Qian had a strange look on her face: "The president told me to tell you that if you ask this question, let me answer it this way."
"Eh?"
Hikigaya was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a slightly strange look on his face. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It turned out that there was no easy task in this school. It seemed that there were undercurrents surging within the student union.
……
It was already dark. After working for two and a half hours in the student union office, Hikigaya had dinner in the school cafeteria. He then returned to the dormitory and just opened the door when he suddenly felt a force behind him. Hikigaya staggered in, accompanied by a loud bang of the door closing.
Hikigaya turned around and pointed at the girl who was holding the door handle tightly with a look of shock. Her neat and smooth golden hair became a little messy, and her eyes, which were originally as crystal clear and lovely as glass, were now full of bloodshot, and her whole body seemed to be constantly emitting indescribable black air.
"Kushida?!"
The girl who suddenly 'attacked' from behind and 'broke into' the dormitory was none other than Kushida Kikyo, who had been waiting for a long time!
"Haha, Hikigaya, I finally waited for you to come back!"
I saw a strange smile on Kushida's face, and his voice was extremely creepy.
Fuck, this isn't a 'little angel' at all, this is clearly a devil!
102
Chapter 102: Kushida's Negotiations.
"Haha, Hikigaya, do you know how long I've been waiting for you?"
Kushida's voice had a hoarseness to it, completely different from the cute and gentle voice this morning, and Kushida looked a bit 'out of control' at this moment.
"Kushida, how did you get in here? Are you thinking of..."
Hikigaya seemed to suddenly realize something and quickly covered his chest with both hands, as if to say, "You can't force me to press the fingerprints now."
"Bi! Qi! Gu!"
After seeing Hikigaya's strange behavior, Kushida suddenly became agitated: "Why do you always try to irritate me!"
"Uh...how about having a cup of coffee to calm down first?"
Hikigaya asked tentatively.
After taking a few deep breaths, Kushida's excitement slowly subsided. He nodded, then walked into Hikigaya's room without saying a word. Without asking any questions, he sat directly on Hikigaya's bed, as if to swear his dominance, "From now on, this room is under my control."
Fortunately, Hikigaya is a person who usually cleans frequently, so there are almost no furnishings in the room. Apart from various books with library labels on the bedside and desk, it can be considered very simple.
After opening the balcony window, Hikigaya took out two cans of coffee from the small freezer, pulled a chair next to the desk, and sat down, then quietly waited for the girl opposite to speak.
Kushida was clearly filled with rage today. He had cursed Hikigaya countless times in his mind, thinking about how he would teach him a lesson. But now, after seeing Hikigaya's calm demeanor, he somehow remembered what happened last night again, and his original anger seemed to be suddenly poured with a basin of cold water.
Especially what the other party said last night, almost every word hit him hard. What was even more terrifying was that he couldn't find any reason to fight back, as if he had been completely seen through and controlled by the other party. The uneasiness, fear and helplessness made Kushida unable to sleep almost the whole night.
Hikigaya saw Kushida's expression changing constantly, so he couldn't help but say, "Kushida, you want to talk about what happened last night, right?"
Kushida didn't answer, but the unfriendly look on his face betrayed his inner thoughts.
"After a night of calming down, you should have figured out one thing: there's absolutely no conflict of interest between us. Keeping out of each other's way is the best approach. No matter what you plan to do, it won't affect me. And even if I tell everyone you're a landmine girl, no one will believe me."
Hikigaya said calmly.
Kushida's expression was relatively calm at first, but when he heard Hikigaya's 'landmine girl', his expression instantly became extremely scary, and veins almost popped out of his forehead.
"Hikigaya, do you know that I really want to rush over and strangle you to death right now!"
Kushida took several deep breaths: "You always try to irritate me like this!"
"Uh... I'm sorry, if telling the truth hurts you, I'll be more careful next time."
"you!!!"
Kushida felt extremely crazy for a moment, and she wanted to just rush out without caring about anything. However, her mind told her that she couldn't do that, and she couldn't act on impulse. She had to resolve this matter thoroughly, otherwise this "handle" would become her nightmare for the next three years!
It took a long time for Kushida to finally catch his breath, and he tried to calm himself down: "What you just said is right, you are just the lowest class in the class, rejected by everyone, and no one believes what you say, but..."
Kushida said this and stared at Hikigaya with a grim expression: "But I can't gamble! And I don't trust you!"
Hikigaya Hachiman, this is a despicable liar!
What happened last night was still fresh in his mind. Kushida originally thought that he had already won the victory by "pressing the handprint" and had completely controlled Hikigaya, but then the other party made a sneaky move, pretended to obey and let down his guard, and then suddenly betrayed him and soaked most of his body. Every time Kushida thought of this, he always felt crazy.
What she hates most is liars!
"I understand."
Hikigaya didn't seem angry at Kushida's words, instead he looked at her with an expression of 'as expected'.
"In the final analysis, Kushida, you are insecure, right?"
Hikigaya sipped his coffee and said slowly, "Because in your eyes, I have something on you, and you can't do anything to me. This extremely uneasy feeling, coupled with your original landmines—I'm sorry, it's just a bit of a bad personality that makes you unable to trust anyone."
"What do you want? Personal points, something else, or your body for me..."
Kushida stared at Hikigaya with a cold expression, and even took the initiative to unbutton his collar. In an instant, it was as if a seal was released, and a piece of white jumped into Hikigaya's eyes.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Hikigaya almost spit out the coffee in his mouth. If these coffee stains fell on Kushida, it would probably be another disaster.
Seeing Hikigaya like this, Kushida felt that "Oh, so this is what men are like." At the same time, the unknown fear in his heart about Hikigaya also dissipated a lot.
"Kushida, is it really necessary to go to this extent just for the mask on your face?"
"shut up!"
Kushida suddenly became agitated. "You know absolutely nothing about me! Don't act like you know everything! Don't act so self-righteous and condescending. This preachy attitude is really annoying!"
Surprisingly, Hikigaya wasn't annoyed by this. Instead, he looked at Kushida deeply. His cold eyes made Kushida calm down a lot. He suppressed his uneasiness and said, "So, what do you want? If you're a man, just be straightforward and don't dilly-dally!"
Hikigaya suddenly stood up. Kushida thought he was mentally prepared, but he was still startled by Hikigaya's sudden action. His body subconsciously stepped back, and then... he fell on the bed.
It was a vivid and overly erotic scene, adding a touch of charming atmosphere to the originally simple space.
However, the scene that Kushida imagined did not appear. He only saw Hikigaya take out his mobile phone, press a few buttons on it, and then handed it to him. Kushida took the phone in confusion, and the next second his eyes widened, and he looked up at Hikigaya in shock.
"you……"
Because what is displayed above is the page of personal points, and there are actually more than 100 million personal points on it!
103
Chapter 103: Accomplice?
"How come you have so many personal points?!"
Kushida stared at Hikigaya in disbelief and shock, trying to find some clues from his face, but unfortunately Hikigaya just gave a meaningful smile and put his phone away.
Kushida was already feeling uneasy about Hikigaya's 'unknown', and now he was shocked by the sudden appearance of over one million personal points on his phone. He suddenly felt a deep fear of being alone in the darkness.
It's the fear of the 'unknown'.
While everyone in Class D is worried about their personal points, Hikigaya has quietly amassed over a million personal points. How did he do it? Where did all these personal points come from? And more importantly... who exactly is Hikigaya Hachiman?!
At this moment, Kushida's mind was in a mess, and the plan he had originally made was completely disrupted by this sudden change.
"That's not what you should know."
Hikigaya replied calmly, then sat back down in his chair, gazing at Kushida across from him with interest: "Does this leverage I have over you make you feel safe?"
Kushida was stunned for a moment, then realized what Hikigaya meant: "This, this is an 'exchange'?"
Hikigaya nodded and said calmly, "You're afraid because you don't have any leverage over me. Now you have leverage over me. Someone at the bottom of the class actually has so many personal points. If I say there's nothing wrong with this, no one will believe me, right?"
Kushida naturally understood what Hikigaya meant. She knew too well what kind of incredible people Class D was. If they knew that Hikigaya, the bottom of the class, had so many personal points, most students would not be able to accept such a huge gap.
No one can easily accept that a guy whom they regard as a "low-class alien" suddenly becomes better off and richer than themselves one day. Once they admit it, isn't it a disguised admission of "their own badness" and that they are even worse than the other person?
As I said, I am not afraid of my brothers living a hard life, I am just afraid of my brothers driving a Land Rover, not to mention that they are not even brothers!
Human jealousy, once it erupts, is a very scary thing, and Kushida has a deep understanding of this.
Kushida could imagine that Hikigaya would be ostracized and criticized by the whole class. Of course, he would be forced to "righteously" ask Hikigaya to hand over his huge personal points to "rescue" his classmates, or face more serious consequences, such as reporting Hikigaya's "illegal gains" and having him expelled!
Just thinking about every scene in his mind made Kushida feel his throat go dry. It could be said that this was a handle that could completely kill Hikigaya!
However, Kushida was not happy about finally getting hold of something on Hikigaya. He even stared at the boy with dead eyes with a wary look on his face: "What do you mean? Why are you telling me this secret?"
Maybe even Kushida herself didn't notice that there was a slight tremor in her voice at this moment.
"Hasn't the answer already been given? This is the bargaining chip."
Hikigaya's face was expressionless. "This way, Kushida, you won't have to worry about me exposing your other side, or whether you're a jerk or a jerk. And I won't have to worry about you all day long. It's a win-win for both of us, isn't it?"
It sounded like that at first, but Kushida wasn't so foolish as to believe it so easily. He frowned, "No! How could someone reveal their 'weakness' to others? Even Ike and those two pig-nosed idiots from Yamauchi wouldn't do such a stupid thing!"
And there was something else Kushida hadn't said. It was that Hikigaya clearly had the upper hand, so why would he do such a foolish thing? So no matter how he thought about it, Kushida felt that this was a trap. But... on the other hand, if it really was a 'trap', wouldn't it be too real? After all, the over one million personal points on the phone just now couldn't be faked.
"Stupid?"
Hikigaya couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. "Yeah, if I wasn't so stupid, how could I have fallen to the bottom of the class? So, Kushida, you can try to make this 'handle' of mine public. Then the truth will be clear at a glance, right?"
"But..."
Hikigaya's tone suddenly turned icy. "You must be prepared to be dragged into hell together. Do you understand, my little angel from Class D?"
"..."
Kushida opened his mouth, and for a moment he felt suffocated and unable to make a sound. The boy with dead eyes in front of him seemed to have suddenly turned into an evil ghost, dragging him into the endless abyss of hell.
This is both a compromise and a threat!
