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

He finally understood Horikita Manabu's true intentions, and finally figured out the meaning of Horikita Manabu's previous actions. Even what happened tonight was specially arranged by him.

No wonder Horikita Manabu asked me to stay...

He is really a brother with a cold exterior but a warm heart!

Then, Hikigaya covered his forehead and couldn't help laughing: "What an unexpected, but irresistible reason!"

As soon as he reached the bottom of the student dormitory, Hikigaya was blocked by a figure that suddenly appeared.

"Hikigaya, you're finally back!"

Horikita appeared out of nowhere, and when she saw Hikigaya, a rare fleeting smile appeared on her cold face.

"Regarding Sudo's fight, I have some questions I'd like to ask you."

Horikita seemed unaccustomed to asking others for help, so her tone and wording were very stiff.

But then Horikita seemed to realize this and added: "Can, can I?"

I just finished having dinner with someone else's brother, and then someone else's sister came to my house right away. Do you two have some kind of telepathy? Hikigaya couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Hikigaya nodded, and Horikita breathed a sigh of relief.

then……

"So...why did you come to my room?!"

Hikigaya looked at Horikita who followed him in with a dark face. It was true that he had promised her, but was it really okay for a girl to come to a boy's room alone at night?

Huh...why am I worried about this?

"Time is running out, I'll just do it for now."

"...俿."

Horikita's speech was still as self-centered as ever, and sometimes she herself didn't even realize it, because this habit and change in thinking didn't happen overnight.

After Horikita entered Hikigaya's room, she seemed a little surprised by the layout and cleanliness of the room, because it was very similar to someone else's room.

Hikigaya sighed and asked while making tea: "What's the problem? Tell me."

Horikita knelt on the carpet in an upright posture, pondered for a moment, and then said: "There are some things I don't understand about this dispute..."

Hikigaya was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked at the ice girl opposite him in surprise, because her doubts were the same as his.

They are all doubtful about the outcome of this verdict. In the absence of objective evidence from a third party, the confessions of both parties cannot be regarded as decisive evidence. If the verdict is based solely on which party is injured and appears to be weaker, Horikita believes that it is a bit too subjective.

"Of course, it's undeniable that Sudo's past misdeeds and temper made his confession seem more 'credible,' and that's evident from the verdict. However, the school also gave Sudo a week's grace period, which suggests they were also skeptical of Class C's confession. So... I'd like to hear your opinion as someone who participated in that meeting."

After careful consideration, Horikita discovered some inconsistencies, or in other words, inconsistencies. That's why she wanted to consult Hikigaya, who said it would be more objective and comprehensive than what Sudo himself said.

"It seems that Sudou didn't tell you the whole story."

Hikigaya knew the problem as soon as he heard it. Horikita frowned when he heard it. Hikigaya repeated the situation in detail, especially when he talked about Sudo's violent reaction on the spot and the additional punishment afterwards, Horikita's face became more gloomy.

“It’s all your fault!”

Finally, Horikita couldn't help but curse angrily.

"It's really what you deserve."

Hikigaya nodded. "Originally, there was plenty of room for maneuver in this dispute and fight. He forced himself into a desperate situation, and can't blame anyone else for setting a trap. Not only did he not believe it, he even went out of his way to step on it. Don't you think this is just courting death?"

Hikigaya believed that Ryuuen was about to die of laughter when he heard the news. He probably didn't expect to meet someone as stupid as Sudo.

Seeing Horikita's expression, Hikigaya recalled the conversation he had just had with Horikita Manabu. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Horikita, if you still want to help Sudo, I think you've been going in the wrong direction from the beginning."

"Do you know what it means to be suspended until summer vacation?"

"What does it mean?"

Horikita was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized: "Hikigaya, you mean... I won't be able to take the final exam?"

Hikigaya nodded expressionlessly: "Yes, that's the school's rule."

"So... I'll be expelled?!"

Horikita's originally gloomy expression became even uglier, and she was even visibly angry!

Chapter 121: Horikita's Frustration.

If Hikigaya hadn't reminded her, Horikita would not have realized the true seriousness of this dispute.

Being suspended is only a minor matter; the real serious matter is being expelled!

"So, originally, this incident was supposed to result in a three-week suspension, but because Sudo not only offended the teacher and the student council, but also behaved rudely during the meeting and vandalized public property, he was given additional punishment. Will he miss the final exam and be expelled?"

Horikita clenched his fists, feeling that if Sudo appeared in front of him now, he would probably punch him twice!

After all, the whole thing had ended up in such a mess because of Sudo alone, and he even wanted Hirata, Kushida, and even the entire D class to clean up his mess?!

"So... Horikita, you still have the nerve to come to me tonight!"

Hikigaya said calmly.

When Horikita heard Hikigaya's ridicule, she felt a burning redness on her face. As proud as she was, she couldn't help but lower her head, not daring to look directly at Hikigaya.

She still clearly remembered what she had promised Hikigaya that day, and she even had no spare energy to repay the 20 personal points!

Following in her brother's footsteps, she came to this highly developed high school. She thought she could let her brother see her progress and excellence, but in the end... she was such a failure. In the past three months, she found herself hitting a wall everywhere. Whether it was being assigned to Class D or facing Hikigaya in front of her, Horikita suddenly felt a strong sense of frustration!

Am I really like what Hikigaya said that day, a frog in a well?

Hikigaya silently looked at the icy girl opposite him with her head lowered. He knew that some obstacles could only be overcome by oneself, and...

Horikita, if you are defeated like this, then you will be letting down everything the president has done for you!

"I, I know I really don't have the face to see you, Hikigaya..."

Horikita's depressed voice was the first time Hikigaya heard the iceberg girl in such a low mood, but then Horikita slowly raised her head.

"But things haven't gotten to the worst point yet!"

Horikita looked straight at Hikigaya, with an indescribable sense of certainty and... unwillingness to admit defeat in her eyes.

"Regarding Sudo's dispute, the school is giving us a week's buffer period not only because they have doubts about the matter, but more importantly, they hope that we and Class C can reach a private settlement within this week!"

Horikita's expression was resolute, but at the same time, she couldn't help but blame herself: "You reminded me. I'm sorry, I should have thought of this earlier!"

Horikita clenched her fists. Although she was still unwilling to accept the situation, thanks to Hikigaya's reminder that she was going in the wrong direction, she finally saw the true nature of the dispute and the roles played by all parties.

Both Hirata and myself were too focused on the problem at hand and ignored many details!

Those involved are often confused, while those who are on the sidelines can see things more clearly. After Hikigaya's "enlightenment", Horikita found that her originally limited thinking seemed to have suddenly opened up, and she felt like she had seen the blue sky after the clouds had cleared away!

"But I also have a new discovery about the witness."

Horikita suddenly said.

"Hmm? Are there really witnesses?"

Hikigaya was surprised. How could there be a witness in the evening in a place like the Special Teaching Building where there were almost no students?

"Sakura is from our class."

Horikita then explained the reason to Hikigaya. Every time Hirata or Kushida asked about the witnesses at the podium, Horikita noticed Sakura's abnormality several times. She always lowered her head and closed her eyes. She also went to test Sakura just after school. Although there was no definite evidence, from Sakura's expression and tone, Horikita's intuition told her that Sakura was very likely the witness.

Hikigaya frowned when he heard that. He did not refute Horikita's words, but recalled in his mind how Sakura had been acting strangely in the past few days. It seemed that everything started when Hirata and others started looking for witnesses.

Thinking of this, Hikigaya couldn't help but feel annoyed at his own carelessness. At the same time, he didn't expect that Sakura would be involved in this dispute and fight.

"Let's tentatively assume Sakura is a witness, but from her attitude it shouldn't be hard to tell that she doesn't want to get involved."

Hikigaya took a deep breath and looked at Horikita: "So... what are you going to do?"

"I……"

Horikita paused as the words were about to come out of her mouth. Looking at Hikigaya's expression, she couldn't help but sigh: "Actually, I understand. Even Kushida can't communicate with her."

"and many more!"

Hikigaya suddenly asked, "Who else did you tell about this?"

"Kushida, Ayanokouji, and the others all know about it, but no one has been able to communicate with her yet."

Before looking for Hikigaya, Horikita had already had a brief conversation with Kushida, Ayanokouji and the others. In fact, she also wanted Kushida to "conquer and persuade" Sakura. After all, when it comes to social skills, none of them can compare to Kushida.

Hikigaya rubbed his forehead with a slight headache. Sakura was an introvert and shy person to begin with. She must feel very uneasy when suddenly being noticed by so many people. Of course, Hikigaya was not worried about this, but that this incident would cause a whirlpool of public opinion in the class. He did not want Sakura to be involved in this storm.

This girl is too fragile, like glass that will break at the slightest touch.

"I know that you, Hikigaya, have helped Sakura with her homework, so..."

Hikigaya naturally understood Horikita's intentions and hoped that he could help Sakura with her ideological work, but Hikigaya decisively shook his head and refused: "Since Sakura is unwilling to testify, she must have her reasons. I will respect her decision. And... I don't want you to force her!"

Hikigaya's tone became very serious as he spoke later. Horikita naturally heard the warning in Hikigaya's tone, but she was reluctant to give up just because she had finally found the witness.

Hikigaya also saw through Horikita's thoughts. Because of the existence of witnesses, Sudo could be "exonerated" and avoid suspension. But would the result really be as Horikita and others imagined?

"Horikita, I know you and others are definitely unwilling to accept this, but let's be realistic. Even if Sakura can testify, what do you think is the success rate of Sudo getting 'exonerated' at this point in time?"

When Horikita was about to answer, Hikigaya gestured for her to think carefully. Originally, Horikita thought that as long as she knew the witness, she would be able to overturn the confession of Class C and prove that Sudo was wronged. However, after being reminded by Hikigaya, she realized two serious problems that she had overlooked.

Thinking of this, Horikita's face couldn't help but look ugly.

122

Chapter 122 Sakura's Secret.

"It seems you are aware of it too."

Hikigaya glanced at the girl across from him and spoke slowly, "Finding an eyewitness to the scene is indeed a weapon that can turn the tables, but you should realize that this eyewitness can be anyone, except a 'Class D student'!"

As long as Class C claims that this so-called witness was a trick invented by Class D to exonerate Sudo, the students of Class D will naturally defend the Class D student's statement, and the authenticity of his confession will be greatly reduced.

"If on the first day..."

Horikita couldn't help but close her eyes and sighed.

In fact, if Sakura could stand up when Chabashira-sensei questioned the whole class on the first day, the authenticity of the confession would be greatly improved. However, as time goes by, there are still three days before the next trial. At this time, a witness suddenly appeared, and he was a student from Class D. Class C really had too many excuses to question the authenticity of the witness.

"So, back to the original question, you were on the wrong track from the start. From the outset, this dispute was destined to end in a stalemate where no one could convince the other. Even if you found a witness, it would only mitigate the original sentence. Complete exoneration or reversal is impossible."

Of course, if Class C could withdraw their accusation on their own initiative, nothing would happen. However, both Hikigaya and Horikita knew that this was undoubtedly a pipe dream.

"So... the best outcome would be for the school to reduce Sudo's punishment so he can avoid expulsion?"

Horikita sighed, feeling a deep sense of helplessness. "No wonder the school gave our two classes a week's buffer. They knew this dispute would ultimately end in a 'compromise between the two sides.'"

"I understand."

Horikita took a deep breath, then thanked Hikigaya, and...

"And I'm very sorry about what happened this morning with Yamauchi and the others."

Horikita seemed to be furious when she recalled what happened this morning: "I clearly warned them..."

Horikita was also very annoyed about what happened this morning. She didn't expect that Ike and Kamichō were so stupid!

She had already clearly told them that this was a trap set up by Class C. It was clearly a divisive tactic, the purpose of which was to divide Class D. So Horikita had already warned them and forgotten about the matter, but she didn't expect that these two idiots would actually "fall for it", even in front of the whole class. At that time, Horikita wanted to rush up and tear the mouths of these two idiots apart!

"Two idiot monkeys indeed!"

It can be seen that Horikita is really very angry. They have been working so hard for the class, but there are two idiots here making trouble and holding them back. Anyone would be annoyed!

Hikigaya's phone suddenly vibrated. It was a message from Kushida.

【A Midsummer Night's Dream: I discovered something important, are you in the room?】

【Energy Saver: Sister Control! 】

The message has been withdrawn!

【Energy conservationists: No time! 】

A Midsummer Night's Dream!

"Is there something wrong?"

Horikita noticed that Hikigaya had been looking at his phone from the beginning, so she stood up and prepared to leave without disturbing him.

Hikigaya nodded hurriedly upon seeing this, but just when Horikita reached the entrance, the doorbell rang. Horikita made way for Hikigaya to open the door. After all, she was just a guest, and things like opening the door should be left to the owner of the room.
