Oreki Houtarou's Power-First Classroom

Because the plan provided by Oreki-san to Horikita-san really memorizes it, and by memorizing enough chess records, one can gain understanding.

This is a very boring process that can even make you want to cry.

Moreover, he once recommended books to her on how to do things efficiently, and then asked her to apply her experience here, so for Horikita, this is probably a new test.

In addition to the test, she also quickly discovered that although Oreki-san said he was learning chess from Itayagi-san, his chess skills had not improved.

Just in the process of memorizing chess records with her, I quickly gained more experience.

Let her lose every time she plays against him.

It was hopeless.

Despair for each other's perceived talent, and despair for chess.

So today I came here mentally prepared to lose another twenty games of chess.

then.

Ten minutes after watching Horikita-san leave, Oreki-san took his cell phone and stared blankly for a while.

Then I called a specific person.

……

later.

When his phone vibrated and he remembered, Oreki didn't look at his phone. Instead, he walked directly to the entrance, opened the door, and solemnly invited that specific person in.

The other party has a cute golden single ponytail.

The facial features are exquisite and delicate.

Probably the cutest person among the students in the school besides Yusu Sakayanagi.

And the hair rope is green.

This is Megumi Karuizawa.

However, Oreki noticed that although it was almost eight o'clock, she was still wearing her school uniform, which probably meant that she had not returned to the dormitory after school in the afternoon.

Considering that today is a special surprise for the other party.

So Oreki-san pretended not to know and said, "Were you still in school just now?"

"Ah...well, after all, my popularity with the boys in Class D is not very good, but my popularity with the girls is quite good now."

"And I'm still the protagonist today." Karuizawa said, and then he looked over with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

Of course Oreki-san understands what she is talking about, but he always plays chess with Horikita-san.

I looked like I was biting my lip and about to cry, so I wanted to find a girl to relieve my mood.

So Oreki-san pretended to be surprised.

"You're the protagonist? What does that mean?"

"Eh?"

However, this made Karuizawa-san draw a long tone.

"Don't you know?"

"What do you know or don't you know?" Oreki asked.

"..." Karuizawa.

"..." Oreki.

"So, is it really okay to call me over at this time?" Karuizawa said, "After all, don't you want to protect me and not reveal our relationship to others?"

"So, if I were in your room at this time -" Karuizawa was obviously a little angry because Oreki-san acted too straight, but now he seemed very embarrassed.

Although she was very cute, Oreki-san felt that it was okay to tease her some more.

"In this case, don't worry." Oreki-san said. "Horikita has been coming to my room for a while. She decided to become a chess player herself, so she came to learn chess from me."

"Eh? When?" Hui looked surprised. "So you two were alone together for a long time? Every day? You weren't swayed by her at all?"

"..." Oreki.

wrong.

This was not a case where Karuizawa came to catch someone raping him on his own initiative, and he also blew himself up.

"After all, there are very few people in this school who can play chess, and Sakayanagi from Class A can basically confirm that chess will be chosen as a required test," Oreki said.

It seems that Horikita-san came to study as a business matter.

"Oh--"

Hui La made a long voice, as if she didn't believe it.

"..." Oreki-san. "Speaking of which, today is your birthday, right?"

"Eh!"

"You know!"

If just now she was still thinking about Oreki-san's attitude towards Horikita-san, now she seems a little elated.

"So you specifically called me here and prepared a gift?"

"Let me explain in advance, I have received a lot of gifts from friends, so the threshold is not low." Hui said.

"So you really want it?"

"No pulling either."

"Since you don't really want it, it's my first time to give a girl a gift, and I'm worried about being rejected, so I won't force it. As long as I don't give it away, I won't be said that the threshold is too low." Classmate Mu said.

"Eh?"

This operation almost stunned Karuizawa.

"You're kidding." Oreki-san then opened the drawer and pulled out a beautifully wrapped small box and handed it to her.

"I remember the birthday gift you gave me before."

So is this returning her current favor?

In fact, for Karuizawa, the more important thing is what Oreki-san just said about giving a gift to a girl for the first time.

Look at it this way... didn't she still earn it?

"Can it be taken apart?" she asked.

In fact, I already want to open it.

"Of course." Oreki nodded.

After opening the package, what was placed in the box was a heart-shaped necklace.

"This is for me?" Karuizawa seemed a little surprised.

"Don't you like it?"

"Isn't this gift ranked very high among the girls in our school?" Oreki said.

"Hey - this is how you give gifts!"

Generally speaking, heart-shaped necklaces and the like are only worn and given to couples who are dating.

Megumi thought this gift was a sign that Oreki-san finally had feelings for her.

The result?

It was very popular among the girls at school, so you just bought it?

In fact, Oreki-san is also very helpless.

At first, he went to have dinner with the angry classmate Banliu, and then he thought about trying to impress classmate Banliu's taste and buy a gift that girls would like.

But later, Itayagi-san issued a declaration of war against Horikita-san, and then the plot of Oreki-san taking her shopping to indulge her taste was terminated.

Then I can only entrust Sakura-san.

After Sakura knew that he was going to give Karuizawa a gift, she immediately recommended this one.

He also told me that this was a gift from a boy that was very popular among girls in school.

And now look... I told Sakura in the past that he would help Karuizawa because the two had dated before.

Then Sakura-san wanted to help.

He was obviously so afraid of Karuizawa, but he still wanted to help him.

Sakura-san is truly an angel.

"Then why not?" Oreki-san said. "This is the first time I give a girl a gift, and I know she might be rejected."

"I didn't say I would refuse," Hui said immediately. "But when giving gifts to girls, you need more patience and care."

Oh.

Oreki-san then recorded it.

So, after putting the necklace on her, considering that there was still room for improvement in her academic performance, I helped her with tutoring for a while.

"Today is your birthday. I hope you can accompany me tomorrow." Oreki-san said.

Then let Karuizawa get off his lap.

"Ok?"

"I have a friend who doesn't have a birthday soon, but I still want to prepare something for her ahead of time, so tomorrow is the weekend, so I can ask you to use your taste to help me choose." Oreki said.

"..."

"Wow. You are really—"

Karuizawa was simply shocked.

Because this man clearly hugged her just now, but now he wants her to be a tool.

Where did he put her?

"Then you're not going?"
