Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

The most terrifying thing is that once you agree with this law in your heart, your body will involuntarily move in the direction indicated by this law, that is -

Become the pinnacle of this school.

To do this, everyone else must be stepped on!

Hikigaya is not that kind of person. He will not trample on other people's feelings for his own personal gain, nor will he do anything that goes against his own conscience.

Therefore, he denied the school's supremacy of strength and everything that was contrary to it.

However, Hikigaya himself does have goals to strive for, or rather, his goals can be said to be quite clear.

That is to earn enough points so that during the three years stipulated by this school, he can occasionally go out and visit his lovely sister, Komachi.

That's all.

This time the dispute between Class C and Class D was obviously a perfect opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation and earn points.

Then, Hikigaya looked at Sakura Airi in front of him, looking at her fragile and fair face under the light, "Can you give me the photos you took? I will reward you with points."

Hearing Hikigaya's words, Sakura Airi opened her eyes wide and shook her head, with obvious confusion appearing in her blue pupils under her glasses.

Seeing this, Hikigaya thought that the other party was unwilling to hand over the important evidence to him, so he further said: "If you don't want points, you can take the initiative to propose me a condition, as long as it is something I can complete."

The photo that Sakura Airi took was a very important card for Class D. If possible, Hikigaya certainly wanted to get it in his own hands.

"No, that's not what I meant."

Sakura Airi shook her head and looked at Hikigaya with embarrassment and said, "I, I can give it to you, but my camera is a digital camera, so I need to go to a special electronics store to develop the photos."

"I see."

Hikigaya nodded.

Although he had knowledge in many fields, there was always a difference between knowledge and practice, so much so that he almost forgot such basic concepts as developing photos.

"Then you can go to the electronics store to develop the photos, and give them to me after you're done?"

Hikigaya spoke slowly according to his habitual thinking, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said. It was a very reasonable request.

Sakura Airi showed an even more conflicted expression than before. She looked at Hikigaya nervously and said delicately, "But, but didn't you tell me not to go to the electronics store in this school before..."

Huh? Did I say that?

Hikigaya quickly mobilized his memory, and after a long period of thinking, he finally recalled everything related from the corner of his memory.

It turned out that when he started school, he went to the school's electronics store and unexpectedly found the store manager looking at the pornographic pictures of Sakura Airi.

Based on his simple sense of justice, Hikigaya warned Sakura Airi to try not to enter the school's electronics store in order to prevent her from being harassed.

I didn't expect that this girl could remember things from such a long time ago so clearly...

Thinking of this, Hikigaya inexplicably felt more favorable towards Sakura Airi, so he slowly said, "How about this, on the weekend, I'll go with you to the electronics store in this school to print photos."

There was a loud 'crash' sound.

Sakura Airi was so surprised that she knocked over her bowl, and the remaining soup splashed all over her clothes and skin, almost making her cry on the spot.

Of course, before considering herself, she looked at Hikigaya in surprise, "You, you want to accompany me to the electronics store to print something?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

"Here……"

Sakura Ai's face flushed red, and her rustic appearance could not hide the amazing temptation brought by the shyness of a young girl. Finally, she spoke in a panic: "I, I'm not ready yet... I don't want to fall in love so early..."

"What?"

Hikigaya was confused by Sakura Airi's reaction.

He never expected that he just wanted to accompany the other party to the electronics store to print, how did it turn into a relationship with the other party?

No one would want to date someone like me, right?

While thinking, Hikigaya looked at Sakura Airi in front of him and found that the other person's expression was in a very tangled state. She was nervous, frightened, and afraid, but at the same time, there was a vague expectation. The corner of her eyes was slightly raised, secretly observing him.

"Uh, I think you seem to have misunderstood something." Hikigaya asked confusedly, trying to figure out the situation.

Sakura Airi glanced at Hikigaya and found that he seemed really confused, so she quickly responded:

"Mom, Mom said that if a boy wants to ask you out alone, it means he wants to date you... Hikigaya-san, don't you want to date me?"

"..."

Sakura Airi's overly orthodox words left Hikigaya speechless for a moment.

He didn't even know how to express his feelings to tell Sakura that he had never communicated with someone who valued tradition so much.

Could it be that the other party is an elementary school student?

After all, generally speaking, only primary school students would keep the words "Mom said" on their lips and say them over and over again, right?

However, Hikigaya did not want to criticize Sakura, because for a loner like her, the only people she had come into contact with in the past were probably her parents.

"You're wrong. I don't want to date you. I just want to help you print out the photos."

Hikigaya sighed and tried to speak his mind as calmly as possible. "If you agree, remember to get ready by the weekend. I'll come find you then."

"Okay, okay."

Sakura Airi nodded hurriedly.

At this moment, the girl seemed relieved on the surface, but she felt confused in her heart, and an emotion that she had never experienced before, like regret, emerged.

She inexplicably wondered, if, if Hikigaya really wanted to date her...how great would that be?

Chapter 173: Horikita, have we become friends?

Seeing Sakura Airi's strange reaction, looking as if she wasn't sure whether she was happy or distressed, Hikigaya didn't think too much about it.

He never cared too much about what other people thought of him, so his current focus was on how to deal with Class C and how to benefit from it.

And Sakura Airi didn't dare to speak up...

Therefore, the atmosphere at the scene fell into silence for a while.

The two of them sat quietly in the corner of the cafeteria, from the time when the place was bustling with people until there were only a few people left.

During the process, Sakura Airi kept secretly looking at Hikigaya who was sitting opposite her, and inexplicably recalled the last time she was forced to stay in the library and read with him.

how to say.

Although these things made her very uncomfortable, Sakura Airi inexplicably didn't hate this development, and even enjoyed spending time with Hikigaya.

To this end, she drank the milk tea in her hand at a very slow pace, as if she wanted to slow down the flow of time.

"..."

After a long time, Hikigaya finished thinking and raised his head again. He looked at Sakura Airi in front of him and found that she was also looking at him.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Sakura Airi quickly lowered her head in panic.

"I, I'm going back first."

Because she was too shy, Sakura Airi stood up hurriedly and prepared to leave.

"Can you lend me your camera first?" Hikigaya asked quickly.

"well."

Sakura didn't hesitate and took out her camera.

Hikigaya took the camera and nodded, then stood up and said, "You've been a great help this time. I'll give you the reward later. If you need anything later, you can call me."

Then Hikigaya turned around and left, opened the door of the cafeteria, and went straight back to his dormitory.

Sakura Airi was at a loss when she saw this. She stood there for a while and suddenly her cell phone started ringing. After opening it, she found that her points balance had increased from 0 to 5000.

The girl was surprised and wanted to look for Hikigaya, but when she looked up, he was nowhere to be seen.

After returning to the dormitory, Hikigaya immediately opened Sakura Airi's camera and found that there were not only scenes of Sudo fighting, but also a large number of her own selfies.

Sakura Airi in the photo doesn’t look like the same person at all. Not only is she cheerful, but she also understands men’s minds very well and does various actions to sell benefits.

Hikigaya temporarily ignored the restlessness in his heart and the reaction of a certain part of his body, and opened the photo of Sudou fighting.

Then, when he saw the photo, his expression suddenly changed.

"Not just Sudou?"

In Sakura Airi's camera, the D-class student who appeared at the fight scene was not only Sudo Ken, but also Yamauchi Kazuike!

All three of them were involved in the fight.

……

The next morning, Hikigaya got up and went to school as usual.

He spent the whole night last night thinking about how to deal with Class C, which resulted in him not getting enough sleep. Therefore, he yawned the moment he walked out of the dormitory.

"You look really relaxed."

Just then, a girl's voice came from behind.

Hikigaya identified the other person's identity without even turning around - Horikita Suzune. Only the other person would use such barbed words as an opening remark to disgust him.

"Horikita, you're up late too."

"I'm a good student, so I study hard every night."

"You're talking as if I'm not a good student..."

"Guys like you must either be playing games all night long, or secretly watching those shameful movies on the computer."

"Is your mouth getting more and more poisonous? I haven't played games or watched movies for a long time!!"

"That proves you were this kind of person before, right?"

Horikita Suzune looked at Hikigaya with a cold gaze as if she were looking at trash, and the latter didn't know how to refute and fell into great helplessness.

Alas, there's nothing I can do. It's basically impossible to win an argument with Horikita.

"Come to think of it, I'm a little concerned about what Chabashira-sensei said before school ended yesterday." Horikita Suzune took slow steps and walked side by side with Hikigaya. "Not only did the school suspend the distribution of points to first-year students, but the homeroom teacher also called Sudo to the office."

"Why don't you just ask Sudou himself?"

"It's meaningless. No matter how much you waste talking to a brainless person, it will only disrupt your own train of thought."

"It's you who doesn't like socializing with others, right?"

"What, do you have any objections?"

"Do not……"

Horikita's cold gaze was like a blade. This guy was just like the Queen of Blades or the Black Widow in the movie, so scary that it was incomprehensible.

If this goes on, the other party won't even have the chance to become a widow.

After all, it was impossible for a man to like her... At least Hikigaya couldn't imagine what kind of man would dare to date a scary woman like Horikita.

While Hikigaya was thinking about terrible things, Horikita analyzed calmly: "Anyway, the first thing we need to figure out is whether this is a school problem or a student problem. If it's the latter..."

"The latter?"

Although Hikigaya already knew the truth, he still couldn't help but want to hear Horikita's opinion.

"It's nothing. Even if something like that happens, if you can't change it, you can only choose to face it or give up resistance."

"I didn't expect you to be so realistic."

"It's like a dream to be promoted from D class to A class. If we are not realistic and down-to-earth, it will definitely be impossible to achieve."

It can be seen that Horikita is thinking about how to get points every day.

Of course, these are not personal points, but class points for promotion to Class A.

Therefore, the other party had already anticipated a large number of possibilities... This was naturally a good thing for Hikigaya, because with the promotion of Class D, the points he could obtain would also increase.

Although he had no subjective idea of ​​improving Class D, he would certainly not refuse the points given for free, not to mention that he could use them to live off them.

"Hikigaya-san, I feel like you've changed a lot since the beginning of the school year."
