Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

"Are you scolding me?"

"I'm scolding you!"

Horikita Suzune said this calmly, but everyone at the scene felt an even colder feeling than when Shinohara Satsuki scolded everyone just now.

If Shinohara Satsuki's voice is a sharp knife, then Horikita's words are like a strong Arctic wind. They are not on the same level at all.

Without giving Shinohara time to react, Horikita Suzune spoke to herself: "Based on your performance just now, I think I may have given you too high an evaluation. Maybe your brain is only at the level of a paramecium."

"You...are you crazy, bitch?! Why do you say that to me?!"

Shinohara Satsuki finally came to her senses. She glared at Horikita who kept belittling her and shouted, "I did all this for the benefit of the girls. Aren't you a girl too?! Don't you know that I'm helping you?!"

"Help me?" Horikita Suzune shook her hair. "I don't think that begging like a street beggar is helping me. What's more, you have hands and feet, but you still ask everyone to give you tolls. Don't you think this is robbery?!"

"you you……"

Shinohara Satsuki was almost driven crazy by Horikita Suzune.

She never thought that her efforts for the benefit of girls would be compared to "beggars" and "robbers" by the other party.

Horikita said without caring: "Otherwise, Shinohara-san, you know I hate the former Sudo-san. I spent so much effort to solve the troubles created by Sudo-san, right? In my opinion, you are just like the former Sudo. For your own desires, you even make the whole class clean up your mess. I'm sorry, I really don't have the heart to do the same thing this time. Please bring your own toilet paper when you go to the toilet!"

Horikita Suzune's vulgar but reasonable words slowly fell.

The scene suddenly fell into dead silence.

Chapter 250: What you are pursuing is not the interests of girls, but your own interests, right?

"..."

Horikita Suzune's aggressive words immediately turned the atmosphere at the scene into a dead silence.

No one in Class D had expected that Horikita would actually stand up and fight against Shinohara Satsuki, who forcibly represented the entire girls' group.

But in a sense, this is indeed something that only Horikita Suzune can do.

After all, in the current Class D, there are only a few people whose status is higher than that of Shinohara Satsuki and who can compete with her on this matter.

The first one is undoubtedly Yosuke Hirata.

As the leader of Class D, he can definitely influence the entire class and make Shinohara give in, both in terms of ability and status.

However, Hirata Yosuke is a pacifist. He hopes that there will be no conflicts within the class, let alone infighting.

This means that Hirata is unlikely to use his power to suppress Shinohara, let alone force the girls' group to do what he wants.

Secondly, although Karuizawa's status in the girls' group is higher than Shinohara Satsuki.

But her interests were highly consistent with Shinohara's. In this matter, she should even have taken the initiative to speak up for the girls on Shinohara's behalf.

Unfortunately, Shinohara took the moral high ground first and forcibly tied all the girls to his chariot. Even Karuizawa Megumi could not raise any objections and was forced to reach a consensus with him.

As for the others, Kikyo Kushida's image in Class D is basically that of a peacemaker, similar to Hirata Yosuke, and it is impossible for her to take actions that actively create conflicts.

Therefore, it was unlikely that anyone in the entire class would stand up to persuade Shinohara, and they could only watch the other side step on the accelerator of "gender confrontation".

Class D can basically be said to be stuck in a dead end.

Originally, Hikigaya planned to be the one to break this deadlock.

Although he was not in a higher position than Shinohara, people like him had a huge advantage, that is, 'those with bare feet are not afraid of those with shoes' and they could say anything.

Hikigaya, who was originally at the bottom of Class D, didn't have to worry about confronting the girls' group and how it would affect his image.

Even if there is an impact, it is just from -100 to -1000.

no big deal.

However, Hikigaya still had some doubts and felt that it would still be a little difficult for him to turn the situation around by himself.

He was also prepared for failure, and felt that the guys in Class D were a hopeless case, so he might as well start thinking about changing classes.

But Hikigaya never expected that Horikita Suzune would come forward first and attack Shinohara Satsuki.

He also quickly realized that Horikita Suzune was a more suitable character than himself to break this situation!

Her action can be said to have quickly reversed the situation!

Because although Horikita may not be as good as herself in expressing her opinions, in comparison, Horikita Suzune has a huge advantage, that is, she is a girl.

Although Horikita herself doesn't seem to have much to say about this, her attitude toward the outside world often makes people forget that she is a girl.

But Horikita Suzune's gender is very real, she is female.

As a girl, Horikita Suzune naturally has absolute restraint towards Shinohara Satsuki's attitude.

Because when Horikita Suzune, who is a girl, questioned Shinohara Satsuki, Shinohara Satsuki's statement that "everything is for the benefit of girls" was refuted!

At the same time, Horikita is also a super high school-level venomous person whose aggressiveness is far more exaggerated than Hikigaya.

When seeing Horikita stand up and confront Shinohara Satsuki head-on, Hikigaya could already imagine Shinohara's fate...

"You, how can you be so vulgar!!"

As expected, Shinohara Satsuki was broken down by Horikita's merciless words.

You have to know that even Hikigaya himself, who has max defense and a bit of a masochistic nature, often feels overwhelmed by Horikita's venomous tongue.

How could Shinohara Satsuki, who had never talked to Horikita, cope with this kind of situation? She was almost unable to hold herself together.

Horikita Suzune spoke without changing her attitude:

"Vulgar? Shinohara-san, don't you realize that? We have wasted almost an entire afternoon since we arrived on the island. By now, we should have packed our belongings, had dinner and rested with the prepared drinking water and food."

"But because of your whining behavior, it has been delayed again and again. If it continues like this, the sun will set and the tent won't be set up yet. So many of us have endured physical torture and didn't say anything, but you just thought I was vulgar because I scolded you a few times. Who do you think is the worse one?"

"Besides, this is an exam. Except for our Class D, all other classes have probably completed their initial preparations. If we continue to procrastinate, are you planning to make our class take last place again?"

"..."

Horikita Suzune's words were precise and ruthless.

Her extremely cold yet absolutely rational words caused the already unstable Shinohara Satsuki to suddenly lose her mind.

She couldn't help but said in panic: "You...are you trying to say that everything is my fault?! But I am doing this for the benefit of the girls..."

"Girls' interests?" As if she had grasped an important handle on someone's words, Horikita Suzune sneered, "Shinohara-san, you keep saying that you are doing this for the benefit of girls, but why can't I see it? In the final analysis, when you were considering the so-called interests of girls, did you ever consult me, a girl, for my opinion?"

"What...this..."

"As a girl, I am also a student of Class D. I am not only concerned about my own life problems, but also whether the entire class can get good grades in this exam. Shinohara-san, in my opinion, your behavior is just using the convenient excuse of 'girls' interests' to seek personal gain for yourself. What you want to pursue is not the interests of the girls, but your own interests, right?"

“I…I didn’t!!”

Shinohara Satsuki had an idiotic look on her face as if she was saying "My father has never scolded me like this". Her defense was broken to the extreme and tears even came out of the corners of her eyes.

The poor kid seemed to be attacked by Horikita's sharp tongue for the first time.

When Hikigaya saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.

At the same time, he couldn't help but think back to when he had just met Horikita. At that time, he was often scolded by this sharp-tongued weirdo and his defenses were broken. It was really nostalgic... Ah, the disgusting past!

"Hori, Horikita-san."

Yosuke Hirata did not expect the situation to develop in this way, and quickly stepped forward to try to calm the situation.

But what he didn't expect was that Horikita was at her most aggressive state at the moment, and spoke without hesitation:

"And you, Hirata Yosuke, why didn't you stand up and stop Shinohara's willful actions just now? As a leader, is your only role to be here as a mascot? Faced with unreasonable demands made by classmates, you should either refuse decisively or seek opinions from everyone, but what did you do? Your actions just now are worse than the apes that appeared in this forest. If it's this level, you might as well drop out of school immediately."

"I……"

Hirata didn't expect that Horikita's attack would spread to him.

Right now, he looks confused, even a little bit broken.

There's no way around it. Most people aren't as shameless as Hikigaya, who is tempered by Horikita Suzune's sharp tongue and becomes more courageous as time goes by.

Under Horikita's straightforward words, most people would certainly be confused and not know what to do.

At the same time, now that Shinohara and Hirata have both lost their power, the only people who can stop Horikita Suzune are very limited.

In order to prevent Horikita Suzune from continuing to run wild, Hikigaya secretly glanced at Kushida Kikyo next to her and gave her some hints.

After Kushida Kikyo realized it, she immediately stepped forward and said:

"Well, Horikita-san, I think Shinohara-san and Hirata-san already know their problems. How about we calm down and have a good discussion?"

"Ok."

Although Horikita is incredibly aggressive, her aggression is only directed at people who have made mistakes.

Facing Kikyo Kushida's words, she nodded silently and said, "I just think that Shinohara's behavior is a little too presumptuous. In fact, I also have such shortcomings and have made many mistakes, so I don't want such shortcomings to affect the promotion of the entire class. If you calm down, let's discuss how to complete this exam from the beginning. I'll leave first."

"Um...wait, Horikita-san!"

When Hirata Yosuke saw Horikita preparing to leave, he quickly tried to keep her.

"what happened?"

Horikita Suzune looked at the other person in confusion, not understanding what he meant.

Hirata Yosuke then quickly said, "Horikita-san, I think what you just said makes a lot of sense. I really didn't do well enough in this uninhabited island exam, and I'm not suitable to continue leading everyone. So I want to do this. I will temporarily transfer some of my power as the class leader to you, and let Horikita-san lead us to continue the exam. How do you think?"

"what?!"

Hirata Yosuke's words caused great confusion in the entire class.

The students in Class D never thought that Hirata would make such a decision.

Hirata saw this and quickly said, "I'm sorry, my meaning may be a little ambiguous. I don't want to give up the position of leader. I just want Horikita to assist me in doing some work in this exam. I will still be the leader and lead everyone together with Horikita."

"This is the result of my careful consideration. I think it is the best result. I hope everyone can accept it."

"..."

Hirata seemed to be speaking very seriously.

He must have felt that Horikita's performance just now was better than his, so he completely recognized Horikita and felt that she could help this class to a greater extent.

But as a bystander, Hikigaya saw the disadvantages of this approach at a glance.

The current Horikita Suzune is not yet able to take on such a responsibility.

If Horikita is really allowed to stand in such a high position, it will lead to consequences that no one wants to see. It will tear the class apart, and even Horikita Suzune herself will be affected.

Well, Horikita should know his own limitations and is unlikely to accept such a condition...

"I understand. I accept."

Contrary to Hikigaya's expectations, Horikita Suzune agreed to Hirata Yosuke's request.

Is this guy crazy?!

This is the worst choice!

Chapter 251: Hikigaya, I hope you won’t come to help me again!

Hikigaya didn't expect Horikita Suzune to agree to Hirata's request to be the leader.

In his opinion, if Horikita Suzune was still sane, she would definitely choose to refuse.

After all, the nature of this exam, which took place on an uninhabited island, was completely contrary to the abilities that Horikita Suzune currently possessed.

In other words, this was the least suitable exam for Horikita Suzune to take the lead.

Because the uninhabited island exam is not a test of academic ability or a single skill, but a test of teamwork, or in other words, its essence is social ability.

And this is exactly what Horikita lacks the most.

After all, as an extreme social rejecter, Horikita Suzune had almost never had conversations with more than two-digit people in class.

She has been alone for a long time, so when faced with one-on-one social needs, she might be able to find a way to solve it, such as the midterm exam and the time with Sudo Ken.

But when faced with a group exam like the uninhabited island that requires the cooperation of the entire class, Horikita Suzune's own abilities are destined to be insufficient to coordinate an entire class.

Fortunately, Hirata Yosuke seemed to realize this and made timely remedies, stating that Horikita was only participating in class affairs as his collaborator.
