Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

Since Shinohara Satsuki is using the group concept that every student in Class D is eager to succeed in the exam and wants every class member to take risks for this exam to coerce everyone, then what Hikigaya has to do is very simple, which is to destroy this collective concept from the root.

Just get rid of the idea that everyone has to contribute to the class.

The momentum that Shinohara Satsuki had taken advantage of naturally disappeared.

"Shinohara, you said that everyone should work hard, but isn't the degree of effort different for everyone?" Facing Shinohara Satsuki, Hikigaya spoke with evil words, "If someone must be punished for not working hard, then don't people who work less have to bear any burden? Or do they just have to stand here, eat, drink, and have fun, and then say, 'Ah, I've worked hard enough', and then they don't have to be punished at all!?"

"..."

At this moment, the whole world seemed to stop.

No one responded at the scene. Hirata, Kushida, and Shinohara Satsuki were all stunned. Everyone fell into a state of 'speechlessness'.

There was a dead silence inside the camp.

Even Horikita Suzune was stunned for a moment.

After all, if Shinohara Toru Satsuki's attack on Ike Kanji just now was to take advantage of the situation, then Hikigaya's current approach was to create the situation for himself.

He forcibly destroyed the concept created by Shinohara with external force, and then created a new concept himself, while in turn forcing Shinohara Satsuki into a desperate situation.

"Everyone has to work hard for the class. I like this feeling very much. However, sometimes we should also consider the situation of each of us. Some people have made more efforts but have not received any rewards or recognition. On the contrary, those who have done nothing and have been lazy from beginning to end can enjoy the benefits brought by others with peace of mind."

"If dedication means sacrificing yourself to illuminate those who do nothing, then such a world would be wonderful. Because those of you who only care about enjoying yourself will never see that people like us who are unknown are being sacrificed in places we cannot see."

Hikigaya finished what he wanted to say in one breath, and then calmly appreciated the expressions of everyone present.

At this moment.

Shinohara Satsuki's expression was extremely ugly. She obviously had no idea how to respond to Hikigaya's attacks. She looked angry and annoyed, but she couldn't refute.

Horikita Suzune lowered her head, so her face couldn't be seen clearly.

Kushida Kikyo and Karuizawa looked confused and didn't know how to start.

Hirata Yosuke's expression was as if he had been slapped unexpectedly, and his eyes were filled with incomprehensible anger.

He is obviously the one who cannot understand Hikigaya's behavior the most and also finds it hardest to accept the current situation.

As a good person who has always protected this class.

In his opinion, what Hikigaya did was like tearing apart something he had carefully guarded with his own hands.

If Hirata Yosuke wasn't so friendly to everyone and so gentle from the bottom of his heart, I would have rushed up and beaten him up by now.

However, Hikigaya actually still hopes that Hirata can stand up and beat him up at this time.

Because Hikigaya didn't really want to destroy this class and completely tear apart the unity of this class. He was not that bored.

The reason he did all this was simply to solve the problem that Chi Kanzhi was facing.

Since Shinohara Satsuki used class dedication to carry out moral blackmail and forced Ike Kanji to accept punishment, Hikigaya used a completely new theory to break the correctness of class dedication.

Although doing so would inevitably destroy the unity that Class D had worked so hard to build, Hikigaya was also prepared to completely repair the destroyed class -

That is to make yourself the common enemy of everyone in Class D.

As long as someone from Class D stood up and criticized me, labeling me as the enemy of the class for saying such disunited words, the others would naturally follow suit and criticize me.

In that way, the class will be able to regain its unity.

This is the method that Hikigaya is best at and is most effective.

The only question now is who will be the villain who attacks him.

The most suitable choice is undoubtedly Horikita Suzune.

No matter the other party's temperament or status, it is best for them to attack you, make you an enemy, and then unify the entire class.

However, Horikita didn't seem to have such thoughts at the moment.

Or rather, she seemed completely unaware that she could do so.

Apart from her, Karuizawa and Kushida are undoubtedly suitable targets, but these two people seem to have no intention of attacking her at all.

Among the remaining people, either they have no ability or they have no status.

Hikigaya looked around but couldn't find anyone to attack him...

This isn’t right, that’s not how the script is written!

Just when Hikigaya was feeling helpless and even planning to actively induce someone to attack him, an unexpected person suddenly walked out.

"I'm sorry, Hikigaya, I didn't consider your feelings." Ike Kanji slowly walked out of the crowd, "I did do something wrong during the day. Everyone was working hard, but I left the camp on my own because of my own willfulness. Now I'm so self-righteous and come back to enjoy everyone's efforts. It's really ridiculous."

"Chi..."

Hikigaya didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to stand up, and was slightly stunned.

He didn't expect that Chi Kuanzhi would have the courage to admit his mistakes.

It seems that I have underestimated the other party. Although he is one of the three idiots, Chi Kanzhi is an outstanding person who can control the situation and calm down.

If such an opponent works hard to hone himself, he might be able to reach the level of Class C or Class B...

Thanks to Ike Kanji's courage, other people in the class were also infected. Many people who were originally angry and dissatisfied with Hikigaya began to realize their mistakes little by little and started to reflect on themselves.

If the situation continues to develop in this way, Class D may usher in an unprecedented transformation, and the class may usher in true unity.

However, Hikigaya did not want to see such a development.

This is not because he doesn't want Class D to become better, he just simply doesn't want some people to do bad things without being punished.

To use an old saying from the Celestial Empire, if you repay evil with kindness, how can you repay kindness?

Perhaps Ike Kanji thinks this is a good result, but Hikigaya does not think so, and will never allow such an unreasonable thing to happen.

There's nothing we can do about it, he's just a lone ranger with a bad temper.

The evil ones need evil people like themselves to deal with them!

"Ike, although you have admitted your problem, it is useless to just admit it." Hikigaya said casually, "Didn't Shinohara just say that you were deliberately lazy because you did not participate in the construction of the camp. This is a very bad behavior. If you follow Shinohara's words, you will be severely punished!"

Hikigaya delivered a decisive shot.

Although he was targeting Chi on the surface, in fact, it hit Shinohara Satsuki.

This can be seen from the pale expression in Shinohara's eyes. Hikigaya directly roasted her on the fire!

Chapter 261 This is the only way that won’t get anyone hurt!

Looking at Shinohara Satsuki who didn't expect that he would make a comeback, Hikigaya thought to himself, didn't expect that, did you? Do you think I will let you go so easily?

Hikigaya had no intention of showing any mercy to Shinohara, who had been constantly stirring up trouble and almost caused a confrontation between the male and female students in Class D.

Even though Ike Kanji has admitted his mistake and intends to give Shinohara a way out and let him go in order to maintain harmony in the class, Hikigaya himself does not intend to allow such an easy thing to happen.

Those who make mistakes should be punished, and that is the right thing to do.

Although Hikigaya is not an extreme justice partner, he also has simple values.

The most important thing is that he can't stand seeing things that make him hate happen.

If that happens, I won’t be able to sleep well at night.

"Shinohara-san, what kind of punishment do you think should be given to Ike Kanji?"

Hikigaya looked at the sweaty Shinohara and smiled.

This move of his was very similar to the one Shinohara used against Horikita before, both of which were trying to divert blame and force unrelated people to take responsibility.

However, compared to Shinohara Satsuki, Hikigaya's methods are more sophisticated.

Because he used Shinohara's own words to drag the other party into the water, and at the same time made the other party bear all the responsibility for the matter.

As for Hikigaya's evil plan, Shinohara Satsuki was speechless. She just looked at the man in front of her with extremely hateful and angry eyes.

Just now, Hikigaya's strategy of using force to break the class unity to reverse the situation completely disrupted Shinohara's plan. Not only did she fail to push Ike Kanji into a bad situation as a step to suppress the boys, but she also put herself in a bad situation.

After all, according to Hikigaya, all those who did not work hard were wrong, which meant that her idea of ​​trying to profit from the concept of gender equality was completely destroyed and she was defeated.

Fortunately, when Shinohara Satsuki was too embarrassed to respond, Ike Kanji took the initiative to step forward and admit his mistake.

This is equivalent to giving everyone a step up.

After all, if one could forgive Ike Kanji for not working, then that would be the same as forgiving all those who had not worked particularly hard before.

Shinohara Satsuki could also take this opportunity to escape from this embarrassing situation.

But what was unexpected was that Hikigaya stood up again at this time and repeated what he had said before.

This can be said to have pushed Shinohara Satsuki to the forefront again, forcing her to bear the attention of everyone.

At this moment, she could either choose to follow Hikigaya's words and continue to demand that Ike Kanji be punished, or give up punishing Ike Kanji and let the matter go.

But both approaches have their own problems.

If you choose the first approach and follow Hikigaya's words to punish Ike Kanji, it would be equivalent to offending everyone present.

After all, Hikigaya had just said that anyone who didn't work hard should be punished.

If Chi Kanzhi is punished forcibly now, it will inevitably cause psychological resentment among many people in the class.

As for the second approach, although this choice would be in the interests of the vast majority of people, it would be tantamount to slapping Shinohara Satsuki herself in the face.

Because the whole incident was brought up by Shinohara alone, if she denied her own words, it would leave a bad impression on everyone that she "does not keep her word", which would greatly affect her status in the girls' group.

As a result, Shinohara Satsuki was caught in a dilemma and had no idea what to do.

This was undoubtedly a situation carefully created by Hikigaya, and it was also a check on Shinohara.

No matter what choice Xiaoyuan makes, her status among girls will suffer a huge blow in the future, and it will be difficult for her to stir up the class situation as unscrupulously as she does today.

The only problem is that Hikigaya's own reputation will inevitably suffer a huge blow.

Because his overly explicit words were obviously not acceptable to everyone, not to mention that Hikigaya almost broke the unity of the entire class.

His oppression of Shinohara Satsuki made his reputation plummet to the lowest point.

After all, whether Shinohara Satsuki was wrong or not, most people would instinctively sympathize with the weak.

However, what Hikigaya has never cared about is public opinion. No matter how others view him, he himself does not care at all.

"..."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Shinohara Satsuki fell into extreme conflict.

It was obviously not an easy choice for her.

Faced with the situation where Shinohara was about to be played badly by Hikigaya, Horikita Suzune suddenly sighed and slowly raised her head:

"That's enough, that's enough."

"??"

Everyone in Class D was stunned, not understanding what Horikita meant.

It's Hikigaya.

He noticed that when Horikita Suzune said this, her eyes were fixed on him.

Could it be that the other party did this for me...

Before Hikigaya could react to Horikita Suzune's intention, the black-haired girl turned to look at Shinohara Satsuki and Ike Kanji: "Shinohara, according to what you said, Ike does need to be punished, so let him contribute as much as possible to this class from now on."

"Huh? But..."

Shinohara Satsuki's expression suddenly froze as she didn't expect Horikita Suzune to come forward to help her.

"Let's stop talking about the previous topic today. I think everyone has already gotten the idea. If we continue discussing this, the sun will set." Horikita ignored her and looked at Ike Kanji. "It will be very troublesome if we can't light a fire before the sun sets. Ike, you have participated in camping before, so you should know how to make a fire. This is your punishment."

"I know, I know."

In response to Horikita Suzune's powerful words, Ike Kanji nodded immediately.

At the same time, the depressing environment that the entire class had just faced was also resolved invisibly by Horikita Suzune.

Next, under the attention of the entire class, Ike Kanji came to Yamauchi Haruki and took the matches and branches from him.

"Why couldn't I light a fire just now?"

Yamauchi was a man with a simple mind, and he was not much affected by the chaos in the class just now.
