Chapter 67 - The Troublesome Kushida

After returning to the dormitory, Hashima Hikaru first took a shower, then stood in front of the desk in thin short sleeves, picking up his phone.

It was now past eight in the evening, sending a message to Horikita Suzune should not be considered harassment.

Phone chat interface.

Hashima Hikaru : Horikita-san, are you busy now?

After sending this message, it took about three minutes to receive a reply.

Horikita Suzune: Hashima -kun, what's the matter?

Hashima Hikaru : There's one thing I need Horikita-san to agree to.

Horikita Suzune: What is it?

Hashima Hikaru : Tomorrow, your classmate Kushida will probably invite you to participate in a study group she organized, you can join.

At this moment in her own dormitory, Horikita Suzune had just finished her shower, her black long hair hung freely behind her, she held her phone, seeming not to understand what this Hashima -kun was saying.

Horikita Suzune: Why?

Hashima Hikaru : It's a bit complicated to explain, but in short, doing this will definitely be beneficial to you.

Horikita Suzune: Can I refuse? I can study by myself, I don't need others to help.

Hmph, it's up to you, but please, Horikita-san!

Hashima Hikaru lightly smiled, switched to Horikita-san's contact page, and took a screenshot of the input in progress.

Hashima Hikaru : Picture sent.

After seeing the picture sent by the other party, Horikita Suzune's heart tightened, because if she refused, this person would send a message to Horikita-san saying that she resisted the previous agreement.

Not wanting to disappoint her brother, the girl naturally would not allow such a thing to happen.

"Damn..."

Since that night's meeting, Horikita Suzune actually had a feeling that this seemingly gentle Hashima -kun was definitely not a good person.

Although his aura could rival her brother's, their styles were very different, he actually openly did such a thing that threatened a girl, it was too bad.

Hashima Hikaru : How is it, Horikita-san, have you changed your mind now?

Horikita Suzune: ...

Horikita Suzune: I agree, you have anything else to say?

Hashima Hikaru : Don't be in a hurry, since I promised Horikita-senpai to help you, I naturally won't break my promise, joining the study group is a good start.

Horikita Suzune: What do you mean?

Hashima Hikaru : After joining the study group, you can take the opportunity to understand your classmates, and expand your influence.

Horikita Suzune: I'm not interested in these, if your purpose is this, I'll agree tomorrow, that's all, I'm going to rest.

"She hasn't said everything yet."

Hashima Hikaru couldn't help but shake his head, no wonder Horikita-senpai always emphasized that relying solely on Horikita Suzune's ability, it was absolutely impossible to rise to Class A, being a lone wolf in this school would indeed be very troublesome.

Unless you really had the strength to crush everyone in all aspects, and completely overwhelm all opponents, then even if you didn't team up, it would be fine, and people would come to follow you.

Otherwise, wanting to rely on one's own strength to rise to Class A was indeed impossible, even using the two million route would be very difficult.

After all, collecting private points was not an easy task, even if there were private point rewards in future special exams, without teammates, it would be difficult to complete any plan.

"Forget it, since she agreed, that's fine for now."

Hashima Hikaru didn't intend to continue entanglement, as long as this person hit the wall, she would probably understand.

Then he picked up his phone and sent a message to the next target.

Hashima Hikaru : Kushida-san, are you busy now?

This time, the reply speed was much faster than Horikita Suzune's, almost within ten seconds, the reply arrived, it seemed that this popular little angel was very free, was she always playing with her phone?

Kushida: Hashima -kun, what's the matter? I'm free now.

At this moment, the short-haired girl had already changed into her pajamas, lying on the bed boredly browsing, her phone had many group chats, most of them were girls' small groups, and there was also Class D's class group, etc.

Hashima Hikaru : Oh, I wanted to ask if you've thought about how to talk to Horikita-san tomorrow about the study group.

After seeing the message sent by the boy, Kushida immediately sat up from the bed, feeling a bit vigilant about Hashima 's concern.

Kushida: I'm still troubled, what if Horikita-san doesn't agree.

Hashima Hikaru : Don't worry, I believe with Kushida-san's ability, you can definitely accomplish it, after all, this is a great thing that benefits the class.

Hashima Hikaru : Have you decided on the other participants in the study group?

Kushida: Um, I've already chosen, they are all classmates with poorer grades in the class, I discussed with Hirata-san, and he agrees with my idea.

Hashima Hikaru : I see.

Kushida: Um, I'll work hard.

After seeing the other party's reply, Hashima Hikaru put down his phone.

While on the other side, after not receiving Hashima Hikaru 's next message for a long time, a hint of confusion appeared on Kushida's pretty face.

What does this person want? Why did he suddenly stop talking?

If he really had something to ask of her, he should have said it by now, right? Unless there was some information she didn't know about.

Kushida thought about the situation from getting to know Hashima Hikaru to today's meeting and meal, except for seeing him deceive that scene, most of the time the other party was very friendly.

Could it be that he was helping her just to become friends?

As soon as this thought appeared in her mind, Kushida immediately pinched it out.

The girl always believed in one thing, that except for family, no one would be good to another person for no reason, this Hashima -kun had just met her not long ago.

Knowing the school's advanced rules, Kushida understood the importance of class competition, she treated Hashima Hikaru to a meal just to see if he was a tool person that could be utilized, to help her inquire about Class B's information.

But after today's meal, Kushida felt that she was a bit led by him.

Not only that, he was so concerned about her thoughts, it was hard not to make people suspect what he wanted to do.

Could it be to inquire about Class D's information?

But it didn't seem like it, because Hashima Hikaru 's focus was completely on her.

Kushida, who couldn't figure it out, lay back on the bed, holding her phone, seeing her face reflected on the screen, her eyebrows were delicate and charming, every frown and smile could evoke a man's endless imagination.

Could it be...

Kushida carefully recalled the other party's expression when interacting with her, if it was for this reason, it would make sense, after all, from the start of school until now, the number of boys confessing to her was countless, but it really couldn't be so simple, right?

She still felt a bit uncertain, but for a while, she couldn't think of any other possibilities.

...

After the next day's sunrise, Kushida, with a tired face, sat up from her bed.

She had been thinking about what that person wanted to help her until two in the morning, and she still hadn't figured it out, she was really too sleepy, so she fell asleep directly.

After getting up, the girl followed her usual rhythm to wash up and change clothes, standing in front of the mirror, Kushida saw the dark circles under her eyes, and couldn't help but curse Hashima Hikaru in her heart, it was all because of him that she didn't sleep well yesterday.

But no matter what, today she was going to invite that Horikita Suzune to participate in her study group, this was the most important thing for Kushida at the moment, and she had to treat it with extra seriousness.

After entering Class D's classroom, Kushida, who was welcomed by everyone, immediately heard many people's greetings.

"Good morning, Kushida-san."

"Little Kushida, good morning!!"

Both boys and girls greeted her with smiles, after responding to everyone with a smile, Kushida saw her target, that lone girl sitting in her seat as if she were in a different world, Horikita Suzune.

"No matter what, let's give it a try first."

Kushida took a deep breath, she knew the other party's attitude towards her was very bad, and she had failed several times in the past when she tried to chat, so she was a bit nervous now.

"That, Horikita-san, good morning."

"?"

Horikita Suzune put down the book in her hand, she immediately thought of the message Hashima Hikaru sent yesterday, so she calmly nodded at the short-haired girl, which was considered a response.

"Horikita-san, I have a request, I hope you can agree."

"I'm organizing a study group, Horikita-san's grades are so good, do you want to join me, let's help the classmates improve their grades together."

"..."

Seeing the other party's still cold expression, Kushida's little heart was already suspended.

"Okay, I agree, when you organize the study group, just call me."

"Really?"

After hearing the other party's agreement, a delighted smile instantly appeared on Kushida's pretty face, and she said excitedly, "I know, I'll call you when the time comes."

While at this moment in Class B, Hashima Hikaru was taking textbooks from his drawer, and suddenly heard the system's prompt sound.

[Horikita Suzune joined Kushida's study group, although Kushida is vigilant towards you, she still wants to continue using your abilities, Kushida's stock price rose by 10 points, current stock price is 20.]

"Vigilant towards me?"

After seeing the system's text, Hashima Hikaru 's expression was stunned.

Is it because my enthusiastic attitude caused her suspicion?

What a troublesome person.

This was the butterfly effect caused by different classes, after all, the two had just met not long ago, Hashima Hikaru couldn't gain Kushida's trust immediately, but if he wanted to increase the stock price, he couldn't not take the initiative to contact the girl.

After thinking for a while, the boy rubbed his chin and said to himself, "No matter what, this is a good start, it has been proven that following the direction of Horikita Suzune is correct."

"But how to make Kushida eliminate her vigilance, I must first think of a reasonable reason."
