Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

"Dead fish..."

"???"

Sakagami Kazuma was completely unable to understand the few words that Ishizaki Daichi had to say with all his might.

What does dead fish mean? Have you eaten dead fish in the school cafeteria?

Why don't you go to the health room right away?

While Sakagami Kazuma was confused and Ishizaki Daichi and others were in a panic, Sudo Ken from Class D suddenly stood up.

"Excuse me, I have something to say."

"Sudou?"

Horikita Suzune was shocked by Sudo Ken's reaction.

She had been tricked by the other party too many times, and now she even had an instinctive stress reaction, thinking that Sudo was afraid that he would do something bad again.

However, to her surprise, Sudo's attitude was much more serious than she had imagined. He looked at Hikigaya from time to time, as if he had made some kind of determination.

Seeing this, Horikita Suzune nodded, tacitly approving Sudo Ken's actions.

"This……"

On the other hand, Secretary Tachibana Akane didn't expect things to develop in a direction out of her control, and subconsciously glanced at the student council president next to her.

Horikita Manabu said nothing and continued to sit there calmly.

This gave Akane Tachibana some confidence, and she slowly said, "I understand. Then, please let classmate Sudo Ken from Class D make the first speech."

"Ok."

After hearing what Tachibana Akane said, Sudo took a deep breath and then suddenly lowered his head, "I'm sorry, the guys in Class C. Although I don't think this matter is entirely my responsibility, it is a fact that I got angry and beat you up. For this, I must apologize to you!"

Sudou's words shocked everyone present.

Horikita Suzune and Chabashira Sae were both shocked by Sudo's change.

"Finally, I apologize to everyone present and promise that I will never make a similar mistake again!"

After Sudo Ken finished speaking, he almost leaned his whole body against the table, with his forehead making zero-distance contact with the table, to show his determination.

This frank behavior once again caused Horikita Suzune to be surprised and confused. She didn't understand why such an obvious change had occurred in the other person.

Could it be... that guy again?

Horikita subconsciously glanced in the direction of Hikigaya and found that he was resting his head on his elbows, daydreaming leisurely, in other words, in a daze.

"..."

At the same time, Sudo's performance caused the scene to fall into silence for a while.

Both the student council represented by Akane Tachibana and the students in Class C and Class D were a little confused by this sudden development and no one knew how to start the conversation.

In this situation, Class C's homeroom teacher, Sakagami Kazuma, pushed up his glasses.

He no longer cared about his own chaotic students, and said with a sneer on his face, "It seems that you have miscalculated. Since Sudo from your class D has admitted his mistake, then this matter is entirely the responsibility of Sudo Ken himself, no doubt about it, right?"

"No, it's not over yet!" Realizing that the C class teacher was trying to take advantage of the situation, Horikita Suzune quickly spoke up, "Sudo only admitted that he beat up a few people in your C class, but there are still many doubts about the fight itself, and everyone needs to confirm it!"

"Humph, dying struggle."

Sakagami Kazuma showed a cold attitude. He didn't think that Class D had any chance of resistance at this point, so he shut up silently.

At this time, Senior Tachibana Akane from the Student Council finally had the opportunity to interrupt and quickly spoke up:

"In the last appeal, your two classes analyzed the details of the fight and determined that Sudo Ken himself unilaterally beat up the students of Class C, right?"

"Yes."

"Humph, you're still trying to make excuses... huh?"

Horikita's reaction confused Sakagami Kazuma. He didn't expect the other party to admit the fact of beating so directly.

"However, although I acknowledge that Sudo hit someone, there is still room for reversal of the cause of Sudo's beating." Horikita Suzune said as she took out two mobile phones. "These are the mobile phones of Yamauchi Haruki and Ike Kanji from our class. They clearly record their chat records with the girls in Class C, and also record the details of how the girls in Class C induced them to have a conflict with the boys in Class C."

"From these evidences, it can be seen that our class's Sudo Ken only intervened in this matter to help his classmates, and accidentally hit someone from Class C."

"Ridiculous, how can it be considered evidence if it's just a chat record?"

Class C's homeroom teacher, Sakagami Kazuma, is on full blast, and can almost be said to be protecting his own student.

On the other hand, D Class's homeroom teacher, Chabashira Sae, has not said a word from the beginning till now.

Seeing this, Hikigaya could already imagine how Class D had suffered a crushing defeat in the last appeal.

"Can Class D provide more direct evidence to prove that Sudo did not intentionally hurt anyone?" Faced with this situation, Student Council President Horikita Manabu spoke for the first time.

As he said this, he glanced at Horikita Suzune, his eyes seemed to say - if it's a statement of this level, it would be better if you didn't say it in the first place.

"Yes." When everyone thought that the matter was about to come to an end, Horikita Suzune suddenly stood up and said, "Regarding the matter of Sudo beating someone, Class D has found more clear evidence!"

"evidence?"

"Someone took pictures of the fight between Sudo and several members of Class C!" Horikita Suzune took a deep breath and took out the pictures of the scene taken by Sakura Airi and obtained from Hikigaya.

"Photos?" Faced with these photos, C class teacher Sakagami Kazuma asked in surprise, "Who took these photos?"

"I'm sorry, the person involved doesn't want to come forward, and doesn't want to be associated with this matter, so the only thing we can show you right now is the photo." Horikita Suzune glared at Sakagami Kazuma, "The photo shows the fight between Class C and Sudo. It can be inferred that Class C deliberately provoked Sudo, which led to Sudo Ken hitting him. The beating was not his subjective intention!"

“Bring the photo here.”

Horikita Manabu's expression did not change at all, but his oppression was even greater than that of the teachers present.

Even the head teacher of Class C felt the pressure.

After looking at the photos for a few times, Horikita Manabu was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "The photos are blurry and the trajectory is unclear. Even if it can prove that Class C took the initiative to provoke, it cannot prove that Sudo deliberately hurt people. Just based on this, it cannot overturn the previous conclusion."

"Hehe, you are still too naive!"

Sakagami Kazuma breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Horikita Suzune arrogantly.

Although Horikita Suzune was helpless, she didn't know how to continue to refute in order to overturn the original conclusion, unless she could really find the person involved.

When Hikigaya saw Horikita Suzune's reaction, helplessness showed on his face. He didn't expect that even though he had already provided important evidence for a turnaround, Horikita didn't understand the correct way to use that evidence at all!

It's like using the imperial sword to kill the chicken of your enemy's family. It's too outrageous!

For this reason, he couldn't help but want to intervene in this matter, so he secretly gestured to Senior Sister Akane Tachibana.

Akane Tachibana understood what Hikigaya meant. After a pause, she quickly spoke: "Ahem, it seems that both parties are still in the dispute stage. The appeal will enter the intermission. We will resume the debate in five minutes!"

Chapter 207: Komachi is indeed the best sister in the world!

The appeals of Class C and Class D entered the halftime session.

The personnel from both sides went to different empty classrooms to take a temporary rest.

"Hikigaya, are you tired?" Akane Tachibana saw Hikigaya's gesture just now and thought that he was under too much pressure. "Do you want me to make you a cup of coffee?"

"No, no, I'm just going to the bathroom."

Hikigaya didn't explain too much, especially didn't want to say that he was going to give advice to Class D, and was about to leave on his own.

At this moment, he saw the Student Council President Horikita Manabu looking at him from a distance.

The other person's eyes seemed to say, 'I've seen through everything.'

However, Horikita Manabu did not stop him, but just watched him silently.

Hikigaya then pretended to know nothing and left the student council room in shame.

He pretended to go to the toilet and turned to the temporary rest area of ​​Class D.

After entering the empty classroom, he saw Sudo Ken sitting in his seat. The other party seemed to be under tremendous pressure. He kept his head down from beginning to end and did not even notice Hikigaya's arrival.

Horikita Suzune was relatively calm in comparison, but even so, she could still feel the tremendous pressure the other person was under, and her brows were furrowed.

The homeroom teacher, Chabashi Sae, was not present. I guess she went to the rooftop to smoke.

"Hey." Hikigaya took the initiative to greet Horikita Suzune.

"...Oh, it's Hikigaya-san."

Horikita Suzune sighed softly, revealing a look of disappointment.

"Don't act like the girl who changed seats and sat next to me. It hurts me."

Hikigaya's dark history can be described as a volley of arrows, and he easily recalls the trauma he has suffered because of some trivial things.

As a woman, Horikita Suzune's unconcealed attitude often makes him recall his dark history.

For example, right now, the other party's disappointed attitude after seeing me is just like when I changed seats in junior high school, those girls inadvertently showed similar expressions when they saw their deskmates. It's really hateful.

Eh, was Horikita Suzune disappointed just now?

What is she disappointed about?

Did this guy think that the president came to see her in person?

Hikigaya didn't expect Horikita to inadvertently show a weak attitude, and silently walked to the girl's side.

Horikita Suzune continued the previous topic: "Can such a small thing hurt you? The classmate who changed seats to sit next to me in junior high school went through worse things than you."

"You are the only one who can say such arrogant words."

Horikita is indeed the king of sharp tongues. One can already imagine what a miserable end his former deskmate must have had.

"I clearly did nothing wrong, so why do I seem to be the bad guy? If I have anything to complain about, I should complain about my bad luck for drawing the seat next to me."

"You can say such things directly. It seems that your character is even worse than mine."

"I'm just stating the facts."

"Alas, besides me, I really don't know who else would be willing to communicate with a guy like you who has an awkward personality."

Horikita Suzune sighed, and her nervousness was unconsciously relieved during the conversation with Hikigaya...

"The reason why I showed that attitude just now was because I subconsciously thought that the person who came here at this time must be my brother." Horikita Suzune suddenly spoke.

"Oh, so that's how it is."

Although Hikigaya had guessed the truth a long time ago, he did not show it.

All I can say is that it's not unreasonable for Horikita Suzune to think this way. Since this incident is directly related to the student council, there is indeed a possibility that the student council president has intervened privately.

"But unfortunately, he still doesn't take me seriously."

Horikita Suzune lowered her head and muttered to herself.

When facing Horikita Manabu, Horikita Suzune always shows a strong inferiority complex. Not only is she not as arrogant and cold as she usually is in class, she even shows some kind of weakness from the bottom of her heart.

The reason for this is probably that this brother and sister are just too arrogant.

If only one of the two people was willing to speak their mind frankly, this could have been avoided...

As expected, my own Komachi is the best sister in the world!

Hikigaya is deeply proud of his sister!

"So what are you here for!?"

Horikita Suzune frowned. She vaguely felt that Hikigaya had some thoughts that belittled her, and a look of dissatisfaction appeared on her face.

"Ahem, there is something." Hikigaya quickly came back to his senses and made himself look serious. "Your declaration just now was not enough to defeat Class C."

"It was my lack of ability that led to this result."

Horikita Suzune's tone began to become weak as she lost her confidence.

Seeing the other party like this, Hikigaya suddenly didn't know whether he should say the mocking words he originally wanted to say, and finally said helplessly: "There are many reasons for your failure, and lack of ability is only one of them."

"You say that as if you are much stronger than me."

Hikigaya's words suddenly sparked a rebellious attitude in Horikita Suzune.

Horikita Suzune, whose demeanor had softened, suddenly launched a counterattack at him.

What the hell is this woman! ?

Can't you just follow the script?
