Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

After all, Horikita Suzune was not the kind of gentle person he rejected. If she were the other person, it wouldn't matter even if she appeared here.

perhaps……

"Are you dissatisfied with me?" Horikita Suzune instinctively complained when she heard Hikigaya's words, "I just went to your dormitory to look for you, but couldn't find you. I checked the surveillance on the cruise ship and finally found where you were."

"Hey, hey, hey, are you really that serious? Can you please adjust the surveillance?"

"You clearly said you would wait for my answer before tonight, but you sneaked out here and hid!"

"Well, I have a reason..."

Hikigaya scratched his head in embarrassment. He had indeed forgotten the appointment with Horikita Suzune. There were so many messy things happening during the day that he had forgotten everything.

However, Horikita is finally going to give an answer.

I'm really looking forward to what kind of result the other party will give.

Chapter 342: Has this brother-obsessed person finally stopped hiding his thoughts? !

After the sun set, the dark night once again enveloped the cruise ship.

At this time, most people are either eating in the cafeteria or have returned to the dormitory to rest early, and it is impossible for them to hang around on the cruise ship.

As a result, a strange silence appeared on the deck of the cruise ship, even giving people an inexplicable silent pressure, like the oppressive feeling of being alone in a silent forest.

For ordinary people, this extreme loneliness and desolation might be a very difficult situation to endure, but Hikigaya doesn't care about this feeling of desolation. He even enjoys being alone.

If Horikita Suzune wasn't beside him.

Looking at the black-haired girl who followed him to the deck area of ​​the cruise ship, Hikigaya sighed and took the initiative to break the silence and said, "By the way, how did you access the surveillance cameras on the cruise ship? Did the school allow you to check the surveillance cameras at will?"

"Of course not." Horikita Suzune shook her head, then said calmly, "I retrieved the surveillance footage under the pretext of something being stolen, and it said the culprit was a dull-looking guy from Class D who didn't have any special features."

"I see... No, what have you done?!"

Hikigaya was stunned. He never expected that Horikita Suzune would use such an excuse to retrieve the surveillance footage!

I won’t really be treated as a criminal, will I?

Seeing Hikigaya's panic, Horikita Suzune smiled happily, then shook her head with that cute smile and said, "Don't worry, I'm just joking... It's really not difficult to retrieve the surveillance on the cruise ship. I just said I wanted to find someone, and they were willing to let me check."

"Your jokes are scary."

Hikigaya really didn't know how to deal with Horikita Suzune's teasing.

In other words, it is really rare for the other party to tease you so actively.

After all, Horikita is most often seen with a stern face and a cold expression, and rarely shows such obvious emotions.

Is there any change in mentality?

On the other side, Horikita Suzune didn't care about Hikigaya's guess. She just slowly walked to the railing and lifted her long hair that was messed up by the wind with her hand.

"Hikigaya, after listening to what you said this morning, I went back and thought about it for a long time." Horikita Suzune seemed to be reviewing something, holding the railing tightly with one hand, "I am now finally sure of one thing, you are not my brother after all."

"Is this something that takes a long time to come to a conclusion?"

"Because after seeing you just now, I realized that my brother would never behave in such a frivolous and stupid way as you do."

"You're just starting to make personal attacks while you're talking?!"

Hikigaya didn't expect that Horikita Suzune would come up and criticize him first, and he couldn't help but show a very helpless expression.

Horikita Suzune just calmly shook her head and said, "Hikigaya, you are not like my brother at all. In fact, there is no comparable feature between you and me. It's just that I was too cowardly before and mistakenly relied on you. I'm really sorry for that."

"It's good that you can understand this, but don't you think I am also better than Horikita Manabu in many ways?"

"Oh? Are you talking about your lonely personality like mine, and the numerous shortcomings all over your body?" Horikita Suzune slowly turned around and looked at him with smiling eyes, "If we compare shortcomings, my brother is really no match for you."

"Damn it, you, a brother-obsessed person, finally stopped hiding your thoughts!!"

"I don't think you, who calls yourself a sister-con, have the right to criticize me in a place like this, right?"

"..."

Before I knew it, I was caught up in an argument with Horikita Suzune again.

While Hikigaya felt inexplicably nostalgic about this situation, he also confirmed that Horikita Suzune had indeed come out of her loss and confusion.

It seems that my impression was correct after all. Horikita Suzune does have the potential to reach higher places, and is willing to give up everything to get to that higher place.

This way, Horikita Manabu probably won't complain about me anymore...

Yes, the main reason why Hikigaya helped Horikita Suzune so much was because of Horikita Manabu's request.

If I don't take good care of Horikita Suzune, who knows how the student council president who has the ultimate sister complex will treat me.

"Anyway, I've decided to agree to Kushida." Horikita Suzune said slowly, "Although I don't know what kind of risks this will bring, and what path Class D will take, but if I don't make a choice, I will only stagnate! No matter what, this class and I must move forward until the day we reach Class A!"

"Well, you made the right choice."

Seeing that Horikita Suzune had cheered herself up, Hikigaya also began to offer his suggestions generously.

Because he knew that Horikita Suzune was different from her previous state, even if he gave Horikita some help at this time, she would not become dependent on him.

Only when people learn to stand up from falling can they learn to grow.

Otherwise, if every time you fall you need the support and hug of others to get up from the quagmire, you will never be able to grow up.

As the old saying goes in China, those who help themselves will be helped by God, and those who abandon themselves will be abandoned by God.

Only by defeating yourself can you become truly strong.

After hearing what Hikigaya said, Horikita Suzune said in surprise: "You really already knew it... Although I noticed it a long time ago, you are so smart, why do you act so pity?"

"What do you mean by regret? I call this style, characteristics, and fasion!"

"I got anxious after being poked and it hurt."

"..."

"You are indeed a weirdo, but I don't hate the part where you affirm your own weakness."

"Yeah, I don't hate myself like this either."

Although he was forced to become a lone ranger in the beginning, after a long time, Hikigaya had already adapted to the status of a lone ranger.

He even deliberately made himself withdrawn and lonely in order to enjoy the feeling of being alone and realize his own superiority.

Because when you are alone, you will learn to think truly.

Whether it is the distortion of errors obtained in the thinking process, or seeing through the truth of the world and mastering the laws that ordinary people cannot see through, this is a process he enjoys very much.

"By the way, it's so late, why don't you go back to the dormitory?"

Hearing what Horikita Suzune suddenly said, Hikigaya's body suddenly stiffened, and he shook his head hesitantly, "Uh, I don't really want to go back..."

"Not really? Is there any reason?"

"almost."

He was very worried that Ichinose, Kamuro and Shiina would come to his dormitory to look for him, so he was determined not to go back to the dormitory and would rather continue to enjoy the breeze on the deck.

Hikigaya thought that Horikita Suzune would go back by herself, but unexpectedly, she found a bench and sat down.

"Aren't you going back to the dormitory?"

"I plan to think about how to deal with the class in the future. The dormitory is too noisy. Those guys don't seem to do anything that helps the brain think except talking bad about others in private."

"This……"

Hikigaya was a little surprised that Horikita was willing to stay here with him.

When Horikita Suzune saw his expression, she quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just don't have many places to choose from, and I just happened to be in the same place as you!"

"Yes, yes." Hikigaya silently recognized Horikita's overly arrogant attitude, "Lone Rangers are like this, they often instinctively do the same thing."

The reason why Horikita Suzune and I would stay in such a remote place where no one would disturb us was because we were both lone rangers, not for any other unnecessary reasons.

Hikigaya came to this conclusion naturally without giving it any further thought.

When Horikita Suzune saw how calmly he accepted it, she inexplicably felt a strange dissatisfaction and an angry expression appeared on her face.

So she hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said, "Hikigaya, you said a long time ago that you wanted to be friends with me, right?"

"You still remember..."

"Who wouldn't be impressed by the stiff way of asking for a friend on the first day of school?"

"Are you going to dig up my dark history?"

"No, I just want to say that I still can't be friends with you."

"You guy..."

At times like this, I have to emphasize it again on purpose to disgust myself.

It seems like I just can't get along with this guy.

While Hikigaya was speechless, Horikita Suzune inexplicably let out a faint smile, "However, although we are destined not to be friends, I think it is still okay to be companions with equal positions and who can talk to each other."

"what?"

Hikigaya didn't expect Horikita to say such a thing, and he stood there in a daze for a moment.

He originally thought that the words coming out of Horikita's mouth could only be sarcastic and venomous, but it turns out that she can also say such heart-warming words.

On the other hand, Horikita saw him stunned and inexplicably showed a wavering attitude.

"Why, don't you want to?"

"No, I'm just wondering when you changed so much..."

"Who do you think is to blame for this?" Horikita Suzune sighed, as if she was very tired of his attitude, but her expression gradually became serious. "But I am very grateful to you, Hikigaya. Thanks to your help, I didn't go the wrong way... Thank you, thank you."

"..."

Seeing Horikita Suzune's shy yet persistent look, Hikigaya even forgot how to start talking for a moment.

After all, seeing the other person's cute expression, he had no idea what to say.

In the end, he could only turn his head away silently, watching the time passing by bit by bit and almost ending, realizing that today would be completely over.

I actually got to spend the last part of my birthday with this guy.

It's really too sad.

However, my life is full of tragedies. Even if there are more things worth being sad about, there will not be any waves.

But because of this, he felt that he hated this school even more. He wanted to leave here quickly, go home to visit Komachi, and let Komachi celebrate his birthday!

Damn it, I really hate this school that believes in strength above all else!

Chapter 343: Someone must be held responsible for the failure of the exam!

Waking up again in the cruise ship dormitory room, Hikigaya rubbed his sore eyes and found that it was already noon.

In order to avoid Ichinose and the others last night, he hid on the deck of the cruise ship almost the entire time to prevent anyone from discovering him.

It is worth mentioning that Horikita Suzune was also with him at the time.

The two of them had almost no unnecessary conversation and just did their own things. Hikigaya spent this year's birthday without any incident.

Afterwards, when it was midnight, he sneaked back to the dormitory and lay down on the bed to rest.

The birthday of the year ended in such a subtle way, and Hikigaya hated the terrible rules of this bad school more and more - until graduation, the school will forcibly cut off students from contact with society and prohibit them from going out.

It can be said that this rule is even more disgusting to Hikigaya than the concept of strength supremacy, and it completely cuts off the possibility of him going home to visit his sister.

Although Chabashira Sae and Horikita Manabu have reminded him in various ways that as long as he gets enough points, he will have the opportunity to leave the school, Hikigaya has not found such an opportunity so far, so much so that he occasionally wonders if the two are deceiving him.

However, according to the style of this school, points can be exchanged for everything, and naturally they should also be exchanged for the opportunity to leave school.

I just don't know how many points it will take.

Hikigaya currently has 200 million points.
