Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

Chi Kuanzhi suddenly rushed up and grabbed the latter's collar with his hand.

Hikigaya didn't panic when he saw this, but instead sneered from the bottom of his heart:

"Heh, who do you think you should hit, me or the faces of those guys who laughed at you?"

"..."

Hikigaya's final blow drove Ike Kanji completely crazy.

"I-I understand."

The latter was like a puppet that had lost its soul for a moment, standing there in a daze with a confused expression, and then walked towards the direction of Class D's camp step by step.

Seeing this, Hikigaya couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.

If someone saw what just happened, they would probably say on the spot, "Hikigaya, you are simply a devil who manipulates people's hearts."

But in fact, this is just false praise.

He is not a devil, just a lonely lone ranger, Hikigaya Hachiman.

Chapter 256 Ibuki: Hikigaya, how did you know Ryuen's plan? !

Hikigaya successfully solved Ike Kanji's problem.

Although the whole process was a little complicated, for him, the idea of ​​solving this matter was very clear from beginning to end.

He just gave the other person a slight push.

Essentially, what he did to Ike Kanji was not a 'change'.

He didn't change anything about the other person from beginning to end.

He just wanted Chi to face the reality so that he wouldn't have to deceive himself anymore.

During most people's youth, changes often occur and they comfort themselves by calling it "growth".

In essence, the so-called growth is either laziness due to excessive comfort or constant compromise in the face of reality, which smooths out the edges.

This kind of thing is not real growth at all, it is just the end of the road after letting go of everything.

You know, under normal circumstances, how could a person undergo dramatic changes overnight or within just a few months?

This isn't Transformers.

If I could become whatever I wanted, I wouldn't be in such an awkward and disgusting state now.

Asking others to change, asking yourself to change, you must change, and you really want to change - all of these are lies.

Why do people always accept so easily that they are wrong?

Why can’t I accept myself as I am right now?

Why is my future self worth trusting?

Since I cannot accept my worst self in the past, nor can I accept my lowest self now, do I have the qualifications to accept others one day in the future?

If I deny my previous self, is there any way to affirm my future self?

Don't think that erasing the past and starting over will make a difference.

Being obsessed with titles from beginning to end, hypnotizing yourself into being recognized by everyone, reveling in the current situation, saying that you are an important person, and being restricted by the rules you set for yourself. Once no one pays attention to you, you feel that your world is lost - don't equate those states with growth!

In fact, there is no need to change at all, just stay the same as you are now - why can't I say this?

Yes, at the end of the day, everyone lies.

What Hikigaya did was to tear off the veil of hypocritical lies so that people can see their true selves.

Some people, after seeing the truth about themselves, choose to confront it angrily. They are unwilling to accept that their true selves are so ugly and dirty.

There are also some people who, after seeing the truth about themselves, choose to accept reality, and on the basis of accepting reality, work hard to do better.

Hikigaya had seen both types of people before.

As for Ike Kanji, what kind of person he is, we can tell by just looking at his next actions.

Of course, no matter what the other party does, it has nothing to do with him.

His task has been completed.

……

Returning to the campsite by the river, Hikigaya saw two pitched tents.

After negotiations between Yosuke Hirata and Suzune Horikita, both tents were finally allocated to girls.

In other words, boys are now completely forced to sleep outdoors.

There is no other choice. There are only two tents in total. If the boys also want to use them, the end result is that there will not be enough for everyone. Therefore, asking the boys to pay more is also an unavoidable choice.

Although some boys were somewhat dissatisfied with all this, they did not complain too much.

Because he had helped them in the previous dispute between Horikita and Shinohara.

Nowadays, boys generally approve of Horikita Suzune. As long as Horikita Suzune speaks up, no one will pay too much attention to it, even if it is a suggestion like this.

After all, if Horikita hadn't stood up and asked Shinohara and the others to restrain themselves, class D would have probably erupted in internal strife between the boys and girls, causing the exam to end early.

Meanwhile, the girls were taken care of by Hirata and Karuizawa, and no problems arose.

Class D was thus able to maintain a superficial peace.

"So we're going to camp in the wild next?"

Hikigaya pretended nothing had happened and returned to the camp.

Horikita Suzune glanced at him and said indifferently, "Yes, you don't have the 'can't sleep unless you sleep in bed syndrome', right? Just now several guys came to complain to me about this, and I even suspected that those guys came here just to chat up."

"It's possible that this is a flirtation."

In the current D class, Horikita Suzune is popular among many boys because of her absolutely cold and neutral personality, as well as her outstanding appearance and abilities.

Although she hasn't reached the level of Kikyo Kushida, many boys will probably obey her as long as she opens her mouth.

Especially a certain Sudo, when Horikita was in a bad condition before, he even wanted to help him carry his schoolbag, but was coldly rejected.

"I really hope these guys can use their extra energy for something meaningful." Horikita Suzune sighed, "By the way, did you finish what I asked you to do just now? If not, I hope you jump into the river over there and hold your breath for five minutes."

"Will I die if that happens?"

“Useless waste is better turned into nature’s fertilizer as soon as possible.”

"You are becoming more and more vicious..."

While arguing with Horikita Suzune, Hikigaya heaved a sigh of relief at Horikita's condition.

It seems that the other party was just in a bad condition before, but has recovered now.

On the other side, after Horikita finished complaining, his expression gradually became serious, and he looked at Hikigaya silently: "So is the matter finally settled?"

"It should be taken care of now."

"That's an indecisive answer."

"I can't help it. I don't have any brainwashing machine. How can I change the mind of a self-destructive person all of a sudden?" Hikigaya shook his head silently, "But I have already given Ike Kanji the opportunity to act. As long as I handle it properly, I should be able to get him back smoothly."

"Humph, in matters like this, I trust your mouth more than the brainwashing machine."

"What do you take me for?"

Faced with Horikita Suzune's excessive trust in him, Hikigaya couldn't help but let out a wry smile, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Just then, Hirata Yosuke suddenly walked over from not far away.

He seemed to have just finished talking with Karuizawa and the others, and was feeling helpless about Ike Kanji's matter, but because there were too many things and it was too confusing in this exam, he had no time to rest and was forced to continue with new actions.

"Hikigaya-san, Horikita-san, I have something I want to tell you."

"what's up?"

Horikita Suzune frowned, she seemed very dissatisfied with this situation.

"It's like this." Hirata explained quickly, "Just now, when Ayanokouji and Yamauchi were collecting firewood, they accidentally found the injured Ibuki Mio. It seems that she was kicked out of the class. After hearing about it, I decided to take Ibuki in. Is that okay?"

"Ibuki Mio?"

"Yeah, Hikigaya-san, you seem to know her?"

"We've met several times."

Hikigaya knew that Ibuki was part of Ryuuen's plan, but he didn't expect that this plan was actually used to target Class D, and these guys actually fell for it.

Ayanokouji, aren't you at the scene? Stop it for me!

"You don't need to report such boring things to me. Just handle it yourself." Horikita Suzune didn't care about Hirata's report, shook her head, and then went straight into the tent.

"What's wrong with her?" Hirata Yosuke looked sleepy.

"Who knows."

It must be relatives coming.

Hikigaya shook his head.

He also felt that Horikita's reaction was a bit abnormal. There were many abnormalities in Ibuki being kicked out of Class C. It was okay that the other students in Class D were too stupid to notice it, but Horikita had no reaction at all, which was really strange.

As for his own attitude.

Although Hikigaya doesn't care about the life and death of Class D, he doesn't want Ibuki, who was sent by Ryuuen, to affect him when Class D is causing trouble.

Better to give a warning.

"Where is Ibuki Mio?"

"In that open space over there."

Hirata Yosuke pointed in a direction.

He instinctively felt that Hikigaya and Ibuki Mio knew each other, and he just wanted to show his concern, so he didn't show any doubt.

Hikigaya didn't bother to explain too much and soon came to the open space where Ibuki Mio was.

The girl from Class C was currently covered in wounds, sitting on the ground, leaning against a big tree.

There were obvious redness and swelling marks on the girl's cheeks, and it was obvious that she had been beaten quite hard.

Haruki Yamauchi and Kiyotaka Ayanokouji stood beside her, the former trying to say something that she thought was gentle but actually just annoyed people.

Ibuki Mio lowered her head and ignored it completely.

With no other options, the two could only turn around and leave.

After seeing the two leave, Hikigaya quickly walked over.

He glanced at Ibuki's appearance, smiled and said, "Tsk tsk, you were beaten really badly, Ibuki, I didn't expect that you would have such a day."

"Hikigaya..."

After hearing what Hikigaya said, Ibuki Mio, who had been indifferent, suddenly showed a panic expression.

After what happened before, she obviously had a genuine fear of Hikigaya, not to mention that the entire Class C now owed him three million.

The most important thing is that she is now tasked with the mission assigned to her by Long Yuan.

What she was most worried about was that Hikigaya would see through everything and cause the mission to fail.

However, it seems that what you fear most will come true.

Without waiting for Ibuki to hide his emotions, Hikigaya spoke silently, "Haha, let me be frank, Ibuki, Ryuuen beat you up on purpose and then sent you to Class D as a spy, right?"

"How do you know..."

Before she finished speaking, Ibuki Mio's face became extremely ugly.

Because the pressure from Hikigaya was too intense, she revealed her flaws in just a moment.

She was extremely confused and couldn't accept the fact that her plan had failed miserably from the very beginning.
