Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

Hirata showed a conflicted expression. He also realized that it was not a good idea to let Hikigaya go to the girls' camp. After all, the girls now didn't trust anyone except him, the class leader.

"I actually have an idea." After hesitating for a moment, Hirata Yosuke suddenly said, "Although the girls are stubborn, we are actually short of manpower to build the camp right now. I can take you there on the pretext of helping to set up the tent. I don't think you will be rejected."

"Is it really okay to find an excuse to let me go like this?"

After Hikigaya asked back, Hirata Yosuke's face first showed helplessness, and then showed a familiar gentle smile, "It's okay, or I hope you can go with me, maybe it can be an opportunity to bridge the relationship between boys and girls."

Yosuke Hirata is a gentle man and a righteous hero.

In the end, he never thought of giving up this class, nor did he think of using any despicable means to solve the crisis that Class D was facing.

Although he was doomed to fail to solve the problem, Hikigaya admired his courageous attitude.

Hikigaya then followed Hirata Yosuke to the girls' camp.

"Why didn't you tell me that the underwear was on Ayanokouji?"

On the way, Hikigaya suddenly asked Hirata a question out of curiosity.

"This... you actually knew that?" Hirata Yosuke looked at him in surprise, then shook his head helplessly, "I don't want girls to doubt boys, and what's more, I don't think Ayanokouji-san is the culprit who stole the underwear."

"Even if you do this, the girls will at least be relieved? And your girlfriend Karuizawa, she will also be relieved that her underwear was recovered."

Hikigaya opened his mouth and tested Hirata.

But Hirata replied nonchalantly, "I don't care about the girls' attitudes. I don't even care about Karuizawa-san... Isn't this terrible? But I can't help it. The only thing I care about is the unity of the class, so I will never say this out loud."

"That's it."

Hearing Hirata Yosuke's words, Hikigaya nodded.

This completely confirmed Hirata's character and realized that his perfect character was not an act but a genuine thought from the heart.

In this way, he had a way to resolve the crisis of Class D, and he felt that there was a high probability of success.

Although it can't be considered as atonement, Hikigaya still wants to take responsibility and completely resolve the divisive crisis that is shrouding Class D.

The only problem is that his method is by no means perfect and comfortable, and there is a high probability that Hirata will suffer a little in the process.

But considering Hirata's personality, even if he suffers a little, he probably won't care too much as long as he gets an acceptable result in the end.

……

Hikigaya and Hirata Yosuke arrived at the girls' camp.

Due to the sudden relocation, the place is still in a state of chaos. Not only are the luggage placed randomly aside, but the tents have not been set up perfectly.

"Hirata-san, I have something to ask of you."

A girl walked over from a distance and was about to speak, but the moment she saw Hikigaya, confusion appeared on her face, "Why are there boys here?"

"Hikigaya-san is here to help." Hirata Yosuke said silently, "I can't set up the tent by myself before night, so I asked Hikigaya-san to help me set it up. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"This...I'll go ask Shinohara-san."

Judging from the reaction of this female student, the girls' group is now firmly controlled by Shinohara Satsuki.

Karuizawa Megumi, who was originally the leader of the girls' group, was completely deprived of her power.

Hikigaya didn't understand how all this happened, but felt that something must have happened in the girls' group that he was not aware of.

Karuizawa Keisuke might be hiding something from me...

You'll have to ask someone about it afterwards.

The female student quickly found Shinohara Satsuki.

The latter looked at Hikigaya with disgust and said indifferently: "Since it is Hirata-san's request, it's not that I can't accept it, but this guy must not peek into the tent or look at our luggage! Otherwise, I will make him pay the price!"

"...Okay." Hirata agreed to Shinohara Satsuki's conditions on behalf of Hikigaya, and then looked at Hikigaya with an apologetic look on his face, "It seems that I have to inconvenience you, Hikigaya-san, for a while."

"fine."

Hikigaya didn't care much about his treatment. Instead, he was more curious. When Shinohara Satsuki said that people were not allowed to peek into the tent, there was an unprecedented seriousness in her voice.

If you are just worried about being peeped at, there is no reason to take it so seriously.

Does Shinohara have some kind of mysophobia?

Can't accept boys seeing your private things?

It's just a few thin pieces of cloth. It's a bit too much to make a fuss. Is Shinohara hiding something else...

Hikigaya began to doubt Shinohara Satsuki and all the girls, and under the leadership of Hirata Yosuke, he went to the place where Horikita Suzune was resting.

"Why are you here?" Horikita seemed to have just recovered a little and looked at Hikigaya in surprise, "Why did you come here?"

Horikita didn't react when she saw Hirata, but when she saw Hikigaya, she was instinctively startled, obviously not expecting the latter to come here.

"I came to see how you are doing."

"Are you worried about me?"

"I just want to tell you something."

"That's good. If I were worried by a guy like you, I would think my dignity would be trampled upon."

"Are you still being venomous at a time like this?"

Hikigaya looked at Horikita helplessly and found that the other party was obviously in a very bad state. His body under the sportswear trembled slightly from time to time, his face was flushed, and there was a strange sense of blur in his eyes.

"What's the matter with you?"

Horikita Suzune looked doubtful.

Hirata Yosuke took the initiative to ask: "Is your health a little bad? Is it okay to continue like this?"

"No problem." Horikita shook her head firmly. "I know my body well. As long as I don't work too hard and take a little rest, I'll be fine."

"Are you sure you have time to rest?" Hikigaya suddenly asked coldly.

His words caused Horikita Suzune to fall silent.

"Are you trying to persuade me to give up?" Horikita Suzune was silent for a long time, then looked at him with complicated eyes, "You want me to finish this exam and return to the cruise ship? Is that what you think?"

Seeing Horikita's stubborn face, Hikigaya shook his head without hesitation, "Generally speaking, when faced with something impossible, it is best to give up decisively and escape before the worst happens. No one will blame you for doing so."

"This……"

Horikita seemed to have understood what Hikigaya meant, and the expression on her face gradually became strange.

"However, those are all idealism, and they are all excuses that incompetent people have to make in order to give up their responsibilities. There are always some things that you know you can't do but still want to do, and you know it's impossible but still want to do it. Trying your best to fight against something that is absolutely impossible to complete is the truly dazzling existence. Therefore, I will not persuade you to give up, and I will not let you give up the responsibilities you insist on."

"Ugh……"

Hearing this, Horikita Suzune sighed silently.

Hikigaya couldn't understand her sigh.

I don’t know whether the other party was relieved that I understood her persistence, or felt helpless that I understood her thoughts.

But no matter what, Hikigaya slowly spoke: "So, keep doing what you want to do, maybe things will turn around next."

"Are you trying to take away my responsibilities again?"

Horikita Suzune's voice suddenly began to tremble.

She seemed to be worried that what happened before would happen again, and she fell into instinctive panic.

"How is that possible?" Hikigaya shook his head. "What else can a guy like me do except say nice things? I'm just comforting you."

"..."

Horikita Suzune rolled her eyes at him for this, and the resentful look in her eyes clearly showed that she didn't believe his words at all.

Hikigaya didn't say anything about this.

The scene fell into silence for a moment.

"Hirata, Kushida Kikyo should be in the girls' camp, right?"

Hikigaya suddenly turned around and asked Hirata Yosuke.

“It should be.”

Hirata nodded and looked at him in surprise.

Although Hirata didn't fully understand the conversation between Hikigaya and Horikita just now, he instinctively changed his opinion of Hikigaya.

After all, the impression Hikigaya had just given was completely different from the past, and even gave Hirata an inexplicable sense of reliability and security.

After learning the news, Hikigaya decisively turned around and left the scene.

He didn't say anything more because he knew it was meaningless. Hirata and Horikita couldn't help at all in this incident. Their high status meant that they couldn't solve the conflict that split Class D, and couldn't ease the hostility between boys and girls.

In contrast, as a lone ranger, Hikigaya has seen too many interpersonal disputes and he knows very well the nature of interpersonal relationships.

He also knew how difficult it was to change established interpersonal relationships.

It is a lie to say that time will heal everything.

That would simply exile everything to the border of oblivion, making them no longer important or influential, and allowing the problems themselves to gradually fade away.

The idea that you can change the world by changing yourself is also a lie.

This world is eroding us all the time, stuffing people into fixed frameworks and removing the excess parts that don't fit the framework. The entire society is constantly brainwashing people, using tough measures to instill the idea that "after changing yourself, the world will also change."

In fact, whether it is based on emotion or perseverance and spirituality, society and groups will not change at all.

If you want to change the world, you can't just talk about it.

This time, I will show this class what is the real way to change the world!

Chapter 287: As long as it’s Hikigaya’s request, I can do anything!

After leaving Horikita Suzune, Hikigaya wanted to find Kushida to learn more about the specific situation of the girls' group.

However, he learned that Kushida had gone out to search for food and would not be back until the evening.

So, while waiting for Kushida to come back, he decided to follow Hirata Yosuke to help take care of the girls' tent.

Although this was just an excuse he asked Hirata to find in order to visit Horikita, he still had to help since he was already here.

However, although it was just a small help, when Hikigaya really started working, he realized how difficult it was to move the tent.

It took him an untold amount of time just to hammer the tent pegs into the ground.

After a hard fight, Hikigaya finally secured the first tent and saw Hirata Yosuke coming to pull the rope.

"You did it so quickly?" Hirata asked, looking at him, "Hikigaya, you are quite suitable for this kind of work."

Does this guy want to fight?

Regarding Hirata's evaluation of the results of his hard work, Hikigaya couldn't tell whether Hirata's words were mocking or joking, and could only sigh and say: "Girls give you all these difficult tasks, it's amazing that you don't have any complaints."

"There's nothing wrong with that." Hirata Yosuke said with a smile, "I just did these things without permission because I liked it."

"Without permission...?"

It seems that Hirata is well aware that everything he does will not change anything and is just self-satisfaction.

This kind of mentality is certainly good, but such a good mentality itself is a problem.

After all, normal people achieve something in order to satisfy some inner desire, or simply try to show their own personality. It is unlikely that someone would do something exaggerated and incomprehensible purely for self-satisfaction.

Although Hikigaya is such a person, he does not think that a special individual like himself can be treated as an exception. Ordinary people cannot have the same mentality as him.

"Hirata, why are you trying so hard to mend the relationship between the class?"

Facing the leader of Class D in front of him, Hikigaya couldn't help but ask questions.

"I have my reasons, I'm just doing what I have to do."

Hirata Yosuke did not directly answer Hikigaya's question.

But this evasive attitude has already responded indirectly.

Hikigaya then realized that Hirata Yosuke might not be as pure and gentle as he had imagined, and there was another reason behind his all-embracing gentleness.

"In short, I think this special exam is not a competition, but an important opportunity for everyone to get along better, so I want to cherish this time now." Hirata Yosuke finally ended the topic with soft words, "For this reason, as long as it is necessary, I am happy to do it even if it is hard work."
