Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

Also, Shiina-san, can you please stop staring at me? I can't help but feel shy...

Chapter 226 Are there too many weirdos in the dormitory?

Although he saw Ryuen Sho, Shiina and others, Hikigaya had no intention of going up to meet them and walked straight out of the restaurant.

However, it was not known whether it was a coincidence or Ryuen Sho did it on purpose, but at this moment the opponent happened to block Hikigaya's way forward.

"Hey, Dead Fish Eyes, did you just finish your meal?"

"..."

Doesn’t this guy see that I don’t want to pay attention to you?

Faced with Ryuuen's proactive approach, Hikigaya finally couldn't pretend not to see it.

He paused and was about to speak, but found that Shiina Hiyori in front of him was deliberately looking around, as if she didn't want to talk to him.

Huh? Is this true?

Does Shiina not want to pay attention to me?

Although Hikigaya has always been trying to make people around him hate him, when Shiina showed that he didn't want to pay attention to him, he couldn't help but have strange thoughts.

Of course, this thought only lasted for a moment. He quickly turned his gaze to the arrogant Long Yuan and said frankly: "It's not like you care if I haven't eaten."

Facing Ryuen Sho, Hikigaya couldn't hide anything.

The other party obviously didn't care about his attitude at all, and said calmly: "You successfully apologized to Shiina before, and let Shiina come back to school, right? I really have to thank you for this."

"Thank me?"

"Shiina is an important talent in our class. I often persuaded her to join the class competition, but she herself lacked the desire to do so."

Ryuen Sho spoke to himself, "Don't look at me like this, I am still very tolerant of useful talents, so I have never forced her to do anything. I thought I would miss her like this, but I didn't expect Shiina to suddenly express to me that she is willing to join Class C in the confrontation with other classes."

"..."

Come to think of it, Shiina did say something like 'I will join the class competition from now on and won't run away anymore'.

At that time, Hikigaya was concentrating on the other party's attitude after the apology, so he accidentally overlooked this detail, and only now realized the truth.

I see. Shiina had never participated in class confrontations before. No wonder her plan against Class C was so easy to implement...

But why was Shiina suddenly willing to join?

She seemed to have given a reason at that time... Tsk, I can't remember it at all.

Is it really because of me?

Although Hikigaya usually doesn't want to take all the blame on himself to prevent his terrible self-consciousness from taking over the mental high ground, this time, the changes in Shiina seem to be truly due to himself.

How should I put it? I feel inexplicably unhappy.

But what is there to be unhappy about?

While Hikigaya was carefully analyzing his own thoughts and disassembling his own complicated psychological activities, Ryuen Sho further spoke: "So I am very grateful to you, Dead Fish Eyes. To thank you, I will completely defeat your Class D in the next exam, so look forward to it."

"up to you."

From the very beginning, Hikigaya didn't care about the class confrontation, let alone the life and death of Class D.

Now that he has two million points, his attention to class affairs has further decreased.

Compared to Class D, he is now even more concerned about the condition proposed by Sakayanagi to defeat Class A, so naturally he is not in the mood to play any competitive games with Ryuuen.

"..."

Ryuen Sho frowned at Hikigaya's attitude.

He seemed to be able to tell that Hikigaya's attitude was sincere, but he couldn't understand why Hikigaya suddenly had no reaction to the class.

Although Ryuuen knew that Hikigaya only wanted to become the student council president and didn't want to care about the class confrontation, it was also a fact that he had helped Class D at the appeal meeting before.

What kind of contradiction exists here?

"Ryūen!!"

Just as Hikigaya and Ryuen were about to pass each other, a sharp voice suddenly rang out from outside the restaurant.

Ibuki Mio walked towards her from a distance and came straight to Ryuuen.

"Why, Ibuki, what's going on?"

"I have something I want to tell you."

In response to Ibuki's direct provocation, Ryuen Sho put his arm around his shoulders without any concern, and said with a smile, "Do you have something to say? Are you in love with me?"

"Stop joking!" Ibuki slapped Ryuen's shoulder and shouted, "I can no longer tolerate your behavior. I must make it clear today!"

"Tsk tsk, alright, then let's go to my room and talk it over, just the two of us."

"Ryūen!!"

Ryuen Sho's teasing words seemed to completely infuriate Ibuki Mio, who threw a punch directly at him, but was blocked by the burly Albert.

"Albert?" Ibuki Mio saw that her movements were interrupted and had a complicated expression on her face. "Do you think this is okay?"

"..."

The blacks remained silent.

"It seems that he has been completely tamed by Ryuuen."

Seeing this, Ibuki Mio still did not give up and stubbornly wanted to cause trouble for Ryuuen, but was directly grabbed by the collar and thrown out by Albert.

"Goodbye." The black man uttered unclear Japanese and left with Long Yuan.

Shiina Hiyori also followed the two of them, without even glancing at Hikigaya.

Although Hikigaya was also concerned about Shiina's sudden indifference, the more critical issue now was obviously the conflict between Ibuki Mio and Ryuen Sho.

It was called a conflict, but Hikigaya always felt that something was odd.

Whether it was Ryuuen's attitude or Ibuki Mio's expression that seemed angry but always felt lacking some momentum. The last time the other party brought Ishizaki and others to beat him up, he was much more ferocious than this.

So, could this be an act?

But why?

Could it be that the purpose of doing this is...

A lot of thoughts flashed through Hikigaya's mind, and his body instinctively walked to Ibuki Mio's side, "I'll take you to the infirmary."

The reason why Hikigaya stepped forward was to observe Ibuki Mio's attitude more carefully. In fact, he felt that the other person's life or death did not matter to him at all.

After all, the other party had been saying sarcastic words to me for a long time while I was being beaten.

"This has nothing to do with you!"

However, Ibuki Mio herself didn't seem to want to accept his kindness. Although she was a little surprised that Hikigaya came to help her, she just slapped Hikigaya's hand away and left the scene on her own.

Hikigaya looked around and found that the scene just now caused a lot of discussion among the students in the restaurant.

So that's it, a self-torture tactic.

Should we say this step is clever or unoriginal?

But if it is used against Class D and Class B, it might actually be effective.

After all, considering the IQ of Class D, I believe there will be many people who would resort to this kind of self-torture tactic. As for Class B, that class is unlikely to suspect others.

Long Yuan is really learning his lesson.

Or maybe Shiina has already started to exert her strength...

……

After Hikigaya finished his meal, he headed back to his dormitory in the cabin.

The facilities on the cruise ship are so exaggerated that they are almost like a five-star hotel. The only problem is that there are no single dormitories here, and there are at least four people in a room.

Hikigaya's room grouping was determined with little involvement from him.

They are Hirata Yosuke, Koenji Rokusuke, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka and him.

How to say it, "a gathering of freaks" is not enough to describe this disastrous grouping.

Of course, Hikigaya was also very clear that it was Hirata Yosuke, the class monitor, who was taking care of them. If the other party had not specifically divided them into groups in this way, the unlucky guys who were grouped with them would definitely feel helpless.

So Hikigaya had no objection to this grouping...

Weird!

"Hahaha, Hikigaya boy, do you want to take a bath with me?!"

As soon as he returned to the dormitory, his bold muscles that were almost blinding appeared before him.

Hikigaya trained for a long time with the student council president, but his muscles were like the difference between steak and peanuts compared to Koenji's.

This guy is that.

Fitness expert, fitness trainer, muscle master...

Never mind. Anything goes.

"I'm going to take a break."

Hikigaya spoke honestly, glancing at Ayanokouji, who was leaning on the bed next to him, and Hirata Yosuke, who was studying the cruise manual carefully.

Although there are many weird people here, this place is surprisingly suitable for me.

Could it be that I am actually a weirdo too? !

"it's a pity."

Although Koenji said this, he actually didn't look regretful at all. He picked up the bath towel excitedly and left the room without any hesitation in his shorts.

The dormitory, which was originally too lively, suddenly became too deserted.

Hikigaya wasn't very familiar with Ayanokouji and Hirata, and they couldn't find any common topics.

Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have gone to the girls' dormitory to look for Horikita...

He's also a weirdo, but that guy is someone I can get along with normally.

Unfortunately, it is impossible for Hikigaya to go directly to the girls' dormitory. If he did that, he would not be socially dead the next day, but physiologically dead.

Hikigaya then also leaned against the head of the bed. He found that Ayanokouji was unexpectedly quiet today.

Obviously, in the past, whenever he had the chance, he would come over to test me and say some weird things...

What happened to him?

"By the way, Hikigaya, Ayanokouji." When silence was about to swallow everything, Hirata Yosuke suddenly appeared like a hero, "Are you going to take a break? If you have time, I plan to meet up with Karuizawa and the others and go play together. Do you want to come too?"

What a strange invitation...

Hikigaya knew that Hirata did this to help these introverted people like them integrate into the environment, but he still hoped that the other party would not meddle in other people's business.

"Sorry, I won't go." Ayanokouji refused directly, "I don't have a good relationship with Karuizawa and the others."

"That's it."

Hirata agreed immediately, then looked at Hikigaya decisively, with a hint of heat in his eyes.

what's going on?

So the invitation to Ayanokouji was a pretense, and the target was actually me?

I have no intention of meeting Ji.

However, considering that if I refuse, I will be forced to stay in the same space with Ayanokouji...

Thinking of this, Hikigaya nodded without hesitation and said, "I understand. Let's go."

"Thank you."

Hearing Hikigaya nod, Hirata Yosuke looked genuinely relieved for some reason.

Chapter 227: Hikigaya-san actually praised me for being gentle? Hehehe…
