Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

"The right choice."

A smile appeared on Hikigaya's face.

Everyone praises love and friendship, but that is only limited to the winners.

No one will listen to the sighs of a loser who has lost everything.

Then let me listen and sing.

I will recognize the right of all losers to exist!

There is no doubt that this is the ultimate tenderness that only a Lone Ranger can give.

Chapter 386: Long Yuan, have you ever thought about what would happen if you lose?

That night.

The deck of the cruise ship is lit up with lights.

In order to prevent students from accidentally falling from the edge of the cruise ship, the school thoughtfully installed lights in every blind spot of the entire cruise ship, so that even late at night, students can still see the surrounding environment clearly.

If we were to concretize "gentleness," it would probably be something like this.

A mixture of chance and human arrangement, carefully designed, exaggerated, and beautifully packaged, what else could this scenery be if not gentle?

And it was precisely because of this special and gentle environment that Hikigaya chose this place and turned it into a stage for his showdown with Ryuen Sho.

Based on his speculation about Long Yuanxiang's habits, the other party will definitely not stay in the dormitory and sleep tonight, but will try his best to seize the last opportunity to scout other classes.

Therefore, the place he chose at the moment was the only way to the upper and lower parts of the cruise ship.

Whenever Ryuuen wanted to go to a different class, he would definitely pass by here.

Hikigaya just stood on the deck, enjoying the sea breeze while waiting for Ryuuen to arrive.

At the same time, Kushida Kikyo and Ichinose Honami are also waiting for all this to happen.

But because Hikigaya didn't want them to get involved so soon, he just asked them to wait in their dormitories.

The confrontation with Ryuen Sho would have to be left to him alone.

Of course, the fact that Ryuen Sho would come to the deck of the cruise ship tonight was just a guess made by Hikigaya based on his investigation of Ryuen Sho's habits.

Whether the other party will really come according to his idea is still unknown.

Because he didn't want to alert the enemy, Hikigaya didn't want to take the initiative to look for Ryuen, so if he couldn't find the enemy here, he might have to resort to more despicable means to call Ryuen Sho out.

"pat, pat..."

However, what Hikigaya had anticipated was correct after all.

In the halo of light emanating from the cruise ship deck, the trio from Class D paced silently and slowly approached from a distance.

They were Ryuen Sho, his black subordinate Albert, and the silver-haired Hiyori Shiina.

The three members of Class C seemed to be investigating the situation of other classes, but when they passed the deck, they unexpectedly saw Hikigaya and showed their surprise.

"Why don't you go to bed so late at night and stay here in the wind? Is your brain broken, dead fish eyes?"

Ryuen Sho frowned, looking confused.

As a suspicious person, Ryuen naturally didn't believe that Hikigaya would appear here by chance. Basically, the moment he saw him, he was already speculating on the purpose behind it.

Hikigaya looked at the tyrant of Class C calmly and sneered, "I should give this sentence to you. Are you so worried about losing this exam?"

"Worried about losing? Are you talking about me?" Hearing what Hikigaya said, Ryuen was stunned at first, and then he couldn't help laughing, "Do you think I would worry about such a thing? Compared to me, you guys in Class D should worry about not losing too badly!"

Ryuuen was as confident and arrogant as ever. Even though Hikigaya knew that the other party was actually unsure, Ryuuen's attitude was as if he had already easily mastered everything.

No, Ryuuen really thinks he has everything under control.

This man's over-inflated ego has long gone beyond common sense.

"Ryuuen..." Hikigaya looked at the sea as if he didn't care. "Do you really not care about the possibility of losing? What will you do if you lose?"

"What? Are you here to shake our morale now? How dare you resort to such a low-quality method?"

"Whether it's a trick or not, it's not important. I just want to hear your answer."

Hikigaya did not give Ryuen a chance to evade the question, and directed his attack at Ryuen in front of him with almost stern words.

Facing his powerful attack, Ryuen Sho's expression changed slightly, realizing that the visitor had ill intentions.

"Haha, do you really think I might lose?"

"When you asked me this question, didn't you think you already had the answer?"

Hikigaya looked at Ryuen in front of him. Although the other party did not give any answer, Hikigaya had already got the answer through the other party's words.

As expected, Long Yuanxiang was hesitant in his heart. The other party was not completely sure that the rules he obtained were correct.

This is not only because the sample size is too small with only one informant like Kikyo Kushida, but also because Ryuuen actually did not even completely believe what Kushida said.

Ryuen Sho, who is extremely suspicious, would never easily believe what people from other classes say.

Of course, Ryuen was determined to believe Kushida, obviously because the other party had some evidence to refer to, most likely Kushida showed Ryuen the cell phone with the identity of the preferential treatment person written on it.

"Hmph, even if you come here to shake me now, it's useless. Class C has already put everything on this exam. Do you think I will back down at this time?"

"of course not."

Hikigaya knew Ryuuen's character very well.

This guy is the type who will stick to his decision even if a knife is placed on his neck, and will never back down.

Therefore, even if he had some hesitation in his heart, he would not give up on what he had already decided.

Hikigaya didn't come here to make the other party give up. On the contrary, Hikigaya actually came here to help Ryuen Sho.

"Ryuuen, I'm going to get straight to the point now." Hikigaya calmed down his emotions and spoke the truth without any hypocrisy, "I already know about your deal with Kushida. Or rather, I actually knew about it a long time ago."

"You guy..."

Although Ryuuen's expression was surprised, he was not overly surprised.

He obviously had some suspicions about Kushida a long time ago, so when he learned that Hikigaya knew about the deal, he was mentally prepared in advance.

"Do you really believe what Kushida told you? He might be lying to you."

"She doesn't have that kind of courage." Ryuen Sho said calmly. As the king of Class C, he would not be easily led away by Hikigaya. "Although I am not that accurate in judging people, I can judge the personalities of different people. That Kushida looks very brave, but she is actually just a coward. She can't possibly tell me false news."

Ryuen wouldn't do anything without any basis, he must be somewhat sure of the source of his information about Kikyo Kushida.

In that case, what if I destroy this evidence?

"Kushida may not deceive you, but what if it is a hidden person in Class D?" Hikigaya smiled and said, "What if Kushida was ordered by someone to bring you false news in order to completely bankrupt your plan? Do you remember what I told you about someone on the uninhabited island targeting your Class C?"

"That's just your one-sided statement."

"But even if there's only a one percent chance, you wouldn't dare to gamble, right?"

"..."

Hikigaya's words clearly made Ryuen Sho feel shaken.

The tyrant from Class C stood there with a serious expression, but his feet began to pace unconsciously.

Hikigaya saw this scene and was sure that the situation was under his control. He was about to say something, but suddenly he found that Shiina Hiyori beside Ryuuen frowned slightly, as if he had noticed something.

Hey, isn't it?

Hikigaya was only thinking about how to deal with Ryuen Sho, but he forgot about Shiina Hiyori who is now following Ryuen and participating in the class competition.

As the most strategic individual in Class C today, Hikigaya has always been unprecedentedly wary of Shiina.

If the other party saw through his plan right now and alerted Ryuuen, all the operations that Hikigaya had constructed might be destroyed.

For this reason, he appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was pounding inside, and his eyes would glance at Shiina from time to time.

It is not known whether Shiina was unaware of the situation or chose to let him go for some reason.

The girl finally lowered her head silently without saying anything.

Seeing this, Hikigaya was honestly relieved.

While thanking Shiina for his kindness, he tried his best to appear calm and continued to look at Ryuuen:

"Kushida should have shown you the text message from the benefactor, right? Are you sure she's telling the truth just based on that?"

"What do you mean?"

It was obvious that Ryuuen understood what he said, but he still spoke like that, obviously wanting him to tell him everything.

Regarding this overly malicious behavior, Hikigaya magnanimously explained: "Because it may not be Kushida's phone."

"Of course I thought of that, so I called the number to confirm."

"Is that so? You are really cautious." Hikigaya clapped his hands in praise. "However, you may not have thought of one thing, that is, the mobile phone cards in this school can be replaced."

"..."

"This means that even if you make the call, you can't be sure that the phone in Kushida's hand is definitely hers. It could be someone behind the scenes trying to deceive you."

Hikigaya smiled, an expression full of complete mockery.

"You guy..."

Hearing Hikigaya's provocative words, Ryuen Sho's expression gradually became gloomier.

He realized that he had unknowingly fallen into the trap of the Dead Fish Eyes, and found that there was almost no possibility of him escaping.

After all, his suspicious character had been completely aroused by Hikigaya.

"What on earth do you want to do, dead fish eyes?"

"What do I want to do?" Hikigaya smiled. "What I want to do is very simple. That is to provide friendly help to your Class C."

Chapter 387: Class 3 Gathered! A plan where no one will get hurt!

"Friendly help?"

Hearing what Hikigaya said, Ryuen Sho's expression suddenly turned gloomy.

He made it clear that he didn't believe that the dead-eyed guy in front of him would really provide any help to Class C. It was likely that he was looking for this opportunity to trick them.

However, at this point, Ryuen also found that he really had no room to refuse Hikigaya, so he could only ask coldly as if he had eaten shit: "What exactly are you going to do?"

"Don't be nervous, Ryuuen, you can believe that I am really here to help you."

"Humph, whether or not to trust you is a decision I need to make myself."

"Whatever you say." Hikigaya had already prepared to deal with Ryuen Sho's words, "Anyway, if Class C continues like this, you can't guarantee victory, right? If you lose, the consequences will be disastrous... Fortunately, there is a way to solve it satisfactorily."

"what way?"

"Be patient. I've called up Ichinose Honami from Class B and Kushida Kikyo from Class D. They should be here soon."

"Ichinose and Kushida? You asked them to come..."

Ryuen Sho was confused for just a moment, and the next second he suddenly realized the situation.

He immediately looked at Hikigaya with a stunned expression, and concluded that the entire process of this conversation had been completely within the other party's calculations from the very beginning.

Soon, Ichinose and Kushida came to the deck from the dormitory after receiving a text message from Hikigaya.

The two of them and Ryuen Sho looked at each other, obviously not expecting that tonight would turn out to be so lively.

Kushida was the first to react, quietly walking behind Hikigaya, relying on the other's presence to reduce his own psychological pressure in this environment.

Ichinose exhaled slowly, deliberately trying to lighten the mood, and joked, "Oh, it looks like no one can sleep tonight."

"..."

However, the current situation is obviously not something that can be corrected by Ichinose's own ability.

Since almost everyone present had their own ulterior motives, and there was distrust and vigilance among each other, no one was willing to pay any attention to Ichinose's words.
