Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

"I see. I will try my best!"

Seeing Ichinose being pua so easily, Hikigaya as a bystander was really speechless.

After everything that had just happened, he realized that Nanyun Masaru was obviously more cunning than he had imagined. No wonder he was able to sit on the throne of student council president even though he was hated by Horikita Manabu so much.

And the most important thing is that even though the second-year students have been manipulated by him in various ways, they still support him to be the student union president without hesitation.

Everything proves the fact that Nan Yun's methods are extraordinary.

"So, what about you, Hikigaya-kun?" After talking with Ichinose, Nanyun looked at Hikigaya with a smile, "What do you think of my speech?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't have any feelings about this."

"Haha, being overly modest is not a good thing. It will only make others think that you have ulterior motives."

Nanyun Miyabi spoke slowly with a meaningful tone and showed a smile that made Hikigaya feel creepy.

When Hikigaya didn't know how to respond, Nanyun Miyabi grasped the degree of pressure very well, quickly retracted that shrewd look, and said with a smile: "But I am often the same as you, Hikigaya-kun. People often say that I have a strong sense of self-awareness, hahaha."

"Hehe, hehe..."

Hikigaya smiled bitterly in response to Nanyun Miyabi’s smile.

This guy is really not someone you can easily mess with. He uses the term "PUA" to the extreme in every move. No wonder he is so popular in the second grade.

It is said that most of them are girls. Even though Nan Yunya used to change girlfriends crazily, those women still flocked to him.

Damn it, is this what they call "women don't love bad men"?

Is it too late for me to start being bad now?

Chapter 486: If you keep calling me like that, I’m going to take advantage of you!

Nan Yun Ya did not stay at the scene for too long. After chatting for a few minutes, he was called away by the second-year students and left the scene.

"What do you think of President Nanyun?"

Hikigaya looked at Ichinose and took the initiative to ask a question.

"Eh? Are you asking me?" Ichinose seemed to have not expected Hikigaya to ask such a question, and answered hesitantly, "How should I put it? I don't think I can answer it."

Ichinose didn't know how to react, but it didn't matter, in fact, Hikigaya himself couldn't tell the difference.

After all, everything Nanyun Ya does has a purpose, and it is difficult to see through his true thoughts.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that the other party's idea of ​​turning this school into a school where real strength is supreme should be true.

"Anyway, the handover ceremony for the student council president is still going on, so let's get to work, Secretary Hikigaya." Ichinose covered up his thoughts with a smile and deliberately emphasized Hikigaya's position.

"do not do that."

If you continue to call me like that, I'm going to take advantage of you!

Men are creatures that are easily corrupted by power.

A lot of thoughts flashed through Hikigaya's mind, but on the surface he still kept a stern face and carried out his student council work.

After Horikita Manabu left the student union, no one knew in which direction Nanyun Masa would lead the student union, or what she would do.

The only thing that was certain was that they were all now tied to the New Student Union's ship and had no way of escaping.

……

When Hikigaya finished his work in the student council, he had to walk heavily to the D class classroom.

Although he really didn't want to go to that place and endure the gazes from other members of Class D, things had come to this point and he had to face what he had to face sooner or later.

When Hikigaya returned to the teaching building with mixed feelings, he unexpectedly saw Ayanokouji with a strange expression on the side of the road. There was a girl from the same class standing in front of him. Relying on his strong memory, Hikigaya judged that it seemed to be a girl named Sato Maya, a member of the Karuizawa girls' group.

Although the two of them were just standing together simply, the atmosphere seemed very ambiguous.

Although he didn't believe that someone like Ayanokouji would be dating anyone, out of his gossipy instinct, he still hid and observed the situation secretly.

In the end, there was indeed no development that was beyond his expectations. Ayanokouji simply chatted with Sato for a while, exchanged phone numbers, and then they parted ways.

But exchanging phone numbers is unusual...

Could it be that spring has arrived for this guy Ayanokouji?

After thinking about it, Hikigaya felt that the other party really had a setting that matched his own. After all, he was the same as himself. If you just looked at his face, he was a handsome guy. But like his own dead fish eyes, he was purely dragged down by his expressionless face, and he had almost no presence at ordinary times.

However, Ayanokouji showed extraordinary athletic ability at the end of the last sports festival.

It's no surprise that this characteristic has won him the favor of the girls in his class.

Of course, understanding is understanding, but facing the fact that Ayanokouji is liked by girls, Hikigaya still feels very envious and jealous. Coupled with what happened to Nanyun Mia just now, he can't help but find that the saying that women only love bad men seems to be true!

Damn it, how about I also start to be a bad person from today? !

When Hikigaya walked into the teaching building with a heavy heart, he ran into Kōhei Katsuragi and Yahiko Totsuka from the former Class A.

Katsuragi has now officially stepped down from his position as the leader of Class A, but thanks to Hikigaya's help at the sports festival last time, he did not lose his position in a disastrous situation, but was able to save some face.

The Katsuragi faction still has a few supporters, but they are no longer able to make any impact on the rise of the Sakayanagi faction.

Hikigaya didn't want to talk to Katsuragi when he bumped into him, but he didn't expect Katsuragi to take the initiative and say to Totsuka Yahiko: "Sorry, you go first, I have something to say to Hikigaya."

Yahiko became more cautious, but because it was Katsuragi's instruction, he nodded immediately.

"Congratulations on becoming the Student Union Secretary."

"Is this something that needs congratulations?"

The thing Hikigaya least wants to talk about right now is that he became the student union secretary.

Not only because he was forced to reveal his identity in Class D, but also because the position of secretary meant that he would inevitably meet Nan Yunya in the future.

Who knows how much trouble we will get into by then.

It can be said that it is a living hell...

"Ahem, let's not talk about this for now." Katsuragi saw Hikigaya's attitude and quickly changed the subject, "After the last sports festival, your D class seemed to be in a bad state."

"It can't be said to be terrible, but it's basically hopeless."

Hikigaya had long expected Katsuragi to bring up this topic. After all, the chaos in Class D was now well-known to almost the entire grade. The fact that Sudo Ken hadn't come to school yet was enough to prove the miserable condition of this class.

"Do you need me to do anything?"

Katsuragi is no longer the leader of Class A, and has become much freer than before. In addition, he has been taken care of by Hikigaya many times, and he has long wanted to repay his kindness.

Hikigaya shook his head silently: "No need, just do your own thing. Class D will handle their own affairs."

Hikigaya's words clearly expressed his attitude.

He never cared about the situation in Class D. If there weren't a few people in Class D who were related to him, he really didn't want to cause any trouble.

"I see, your class D is indeed not simple." Katsuragi sighed, "I thought it was special to have Koenji in your class, but I didn't expect there was someone like Ayanokouji who hid his strength and showed it suddenly. The last relay race at the sports festival surprised many people."

"Oh? What does Sakayanagi think about this?"

Hikigaya was very curious about Sakayanagi's attitude towards Ayanokouji. After all, he had regarded Ayanokouji as an enemy who must be defeated for a long time.

"I'm not very clear about this, but I heard that after the sports festival, Sakayanagi went to meet with Ayanokouji in private, which caused a lot of discussion among the class."

"I see."

It seems that Sakayanagi took this opportunity to declare war on Ayanokouji.

Hikigaya guessed Sakayanagi's actions and didn't seem surprised at all.

But after a brief stalemate, Katsuragi finally revealed his true purpose: "Hikigaya, regarding the new student council president, Nangumo Masaru, is he the one that President Horikita once hoped that Ichinose and I would help you fight against?"

Chapter 487: Hirata, stop being the class leader!

Hikigaya remained silent for a moment and did not respond to Katsuragi's direct question.

But his silence already symbolizes many things.

Katsuragi did not ask him to answer, and said calmly: "I roughly understand. I will keep this matter in mind. Unfortunately, I am in the chaos of the class now. I am not able to deal with things outside the class, and I don't have the energy to complete President Horikita's entrustment."

"..."

Katsuragi's response was quite clever.

It seems that after experiencing Ryuen's torture, the other party has learned something more or less, and has made great progress now.

Compared to Ichinose who was next door and didn’t even notice the situation, he was quite perceptive.

However, this does not mean that Ichinose is inferior to Katsuragi. It’s just that Ichinose has not suffered any hardship and is still in a relatively naive state.

By the time Sakayanagi gets on board and launches an attack on the former Class B, the other side will probably be in real trouble.

As for the help from Katsuragi, Hikigaya didn't think too much about it. He himself didn't know what extent Horikita Manabu would require of him, so naturally he wouldn't ask the other party to help him.

Hikigaya then spoke silently: "You don't have to worry too much about this matter. President Nanyun has just taken office, and former President Horikita has not graduated yet. The other party will not take any extreme actions."

"That's true." Katsuragi nodded slightly, "I also heard President Nanyun's proposals. No wonder President Horikita is so against him. But no matter how powerful President Horikita is, he will graduate in a few months. By then, the whole school will probably let Nanyun Miyabi do whatever he wants."

"..."

Hikigaya did not respond to Katsuragi's words, but his silence itself was a change of attitude.

"I originally came from a junior high school in the countryside, and this place is completely different from what I imagined high school life to be." Katsuragi Kohei seemed to be full of emotion about this situation, "Although we have known this for a long time, this school is a place with an incomprehensible and mysterious structure. I have felt this again recently. Students of the same grade should get along with each other in a friendly manner and should never be hostile to each other."

Katsuragi's distress is a thought that most people would have.

The structure of this school is really too strange. It has too many characteristics that are different from ordinary school life, creating a mechanism that makes it difficult for students to get along with each other.

It can also be said that it is built up of competing rules.

Depending on the situation, there may be mutual hatred and the desire to kick the opponent out.

This is that kind of school.

It's just that relatively speaking, the unity among our own people...that is, the degree of unity among our own class will basically increase.

But in fact, except for the original Class B, the other classes are really unreliable.

Class D has many independent actions that lack coordination, the former Class C is a dictatorship, and the former Class A is even more divided between two factions and there is constant civil unrest.

Katsuragi seemed helpless about all this and spoke silently:

"I've always felt something was wrong since I came to this school. The so-called supremacy of strength should have a limit, no matter what, and it's not allowed to cross some bottom line. But today, I feel more and more that only by giving up the bottom line can I become better in this school. It's as if the school is deliberately inducing us to attack each other and tempting us to do all kinds of bad things... Is this the only way for the school to truly put strength first?"

"Who knows."

Hikigaya had already complained about Katsuragi's doubts countless times in his heart.

But the reality is that this school deliberately allows students to attack each other and use means that cross the bottom line against each other, calling it "strength supremacy".

But is this really strength?

At least Hikigaya would find it hard to agree.

The reason why Katsuragi brought up this matter was obviously because he had the same confusion as Hikigaya. After all, he had been adhering to his own beliefs since the beginning of the school year and competing fairly with other classes. However, he was tricked by Ryuuen, Sakayanagi and others using all kinds of insidious tricks.

To him, everything he experienced was like constant brainwashing by this school, changing his original perception of strength.

"Hikigaya, don't you feel overwhelmed?"

Katsuragi, who asked this question, did not seem to want an answer. He just shook his head calmly and spoke to himself, "Anyway, I will not give up my idea in the next exam. Even if I am rejected countless times and taught what true strength is, I will stick to my own way to the end."

After saying this, Kōhei Katsuragi turned around and left silently.

Hikigaya felt somewhat complicated when looking at Katsuragi like this. He had a strange feeling, as if the fox mourns the death of a rabbit, or that the lips and teeth are in danger.

But no matter what, he knew very well that some things could not be changed.

Once you come to this school, there is absolutely no way to be safe and stay out of it unless you drop out. You will always be caught up in waves again and again.

……

With heavy steps, Hikigaya arrived at the door of Class D's classroom.

Although he knew that this moment was destined to come, when it really came, he still felt an uncontrollable sense of escape.

I really want to go back to the dormitory right now and never go out again!

With complicated thoughts in his mind, Hikigaya slowly pushed open the door of the classroom, and what came into his sight was a classroom that was much quieter than before.
