During lunch break, Hikigaya followed the address given by Shiina and went to the BBQ restaurant in the Keiyaki mall.
Hm? Why barbecue again?
I remember the last time I had dinner with Sakayanagi was also at this restaurant. Doesn't everyone love barbecue so much?
"Hikigaya-kun, are you here…"
Shiina even deliberately waited at the door to greet her, but Hikigaya knew that wasn't what she meant, so please stop throwing envious and jealous male glances.
Enough of this kind of treatment in the classroom!
Sorry to keep you waiting, let's go first.
Hikigaya saw that Shiina wanted to say something, but he didn't ask.
From previous text messages, he understood that Shiina probably didn't want him to come here.
But given Shiina's position in Class C, she definitely couldn't resist Ryuuen's instructions, just like Matsushita couldn't help Hikigaya in class. Each had its own difficulties.
Hikigaya is well aware of this and is not going to blame others.
Moreover, Ryuuen came after him this time, so Shiina intervened.
Entering the store, accompanied by Shiina to the kiosk, he finally saw the legendary leader of Class C, Ryuuen Kakeru.
Of course, to say that in fact Hikigaya saw this redhead several times, but the other side did not notice him.
Speaking of which, this guy actually ate the food first. How rough!
But given that it was Ryuuen's treat, Hikigaya thought he would let it go.
After the two sides met, the expected sword strike didn't happen, Ryuuen just casually greeted the two of them to sit down and then started eating the pork belly.
"Hikigaya-kun, is the chicken okay?"
"...Aah, okay."
Seeing Shiina also start eating, Hikigaya felt a little embarrassed by the two people.
Is it really only for dinner?
No, probably because they were preparing to eat and then talk about business.
In that case, Hikigaya was pleased and took the fried pork belly and put it in his mouth.
The taste spreads instantly in the mouth.
"Well, it's delicious."
"Hehe, the taste in this store is good, but the price is not cheap."
Hearing what Hikigaya said, Ryuuen immediately laughed.
"If you can't get points like you, then you have to refuse to eat here if there is no one to treat you."
Yes, this is your meal.
Hikigaya replied with a normal face, but his heart was not very calm.
From these words, he did not feel Rien's mockery, which meant that the other side had no evil intentions, but naturally despised him with a condescending attitude.
This guy has a really bad personality.
At this time, Shiina turned to Ryuuen, "How about I pay half as well?"
"Please, you are a woman, how could you pay."
Having said this, Hikigaya believes that Ryuuen is not the type to take care of the field and does not have the spirit of a gentleman.
Even in front of women, I'm afraid that he won't show mercy, or because they're relatively vulnerable women, people like Ryuuen are likely to take advantage of it the most.
However, this has nothing to do with Hikigaya.
"Then... you can almost tell why I was called?"
As soon as the words came out, the three of them put down their chopsticks almost at the same time, and Shiina looked at Hikigaya with concern.
"Why, can't you guess?" Ryuuen smiled, "Hikigaya, I heard Hiyori say something about you, so you don't have to act stupid in front of me, not to mention you're the only one. first grader who joined the student council. You can't be stupid."
"I can probably guess, but I still want to hear from you."
Hearing what Hikigaya said, Ryuuen glared at him angrily.
"Your character is really good, you bastard... Forget it, then I'll just say it straight, I hope you don't have anything to do with people from our class in the future."
"What..."
Hikigaya didn't react at all, but Shiina, who was sitting next to him, unconsciously clenched her fists with a depressed expression.
Ryuuen looked at her with interest, "This is the first time I've seen Hiyori with this expression. Hikigaya, your dead fisheye is unexpectedly popular."
"No, it's just your delusion," Hikigaya sighed, "so what? Since I'm not in class C, Shiina and I can leak information. Does it bother you?
Seeing Ryuuen nodding, Hikigaya couldn't help but laugh.
"I didn't expect it to be true. It looks like, unlike your appearance, you're actually a cautious little person."
"Hmm, in order to move to class A, this precaution is necessary."
Contrary to Hikigaya's expectations, Ryen was completely unaffected by his aggressive tactics and his response was completely different from his appearance.
"Ryuuen-kun, I won't do this," Shiina suddenly said.
"Yeah, probably not," Ryuuen nodded in agreement, "I know Hiyori isn't interested in class fights, and Hikigaya is the same, right?"
"You seem to know me well?"
"You can see it at a glance. You have no interest in others. I'm afraid that even if a classmate gets kicked out of school, you won't even look at him."
Wow? This guy spoke too frankly!
Although he was somewhat dissatisfied, Hikigaya couldn't find the right words to object for a while, so for now he could only remain silent.
In the beginning, Ryuuen sent Shiina to try it. Seeing that the relationship between them had gotten better, he wanted to use a beauty trick to play hard to catch, and he intentionally didn't tell Shiina. He was afraid that Shiina would not cooperate with him.
Definitely not your average bad boy.
"In that case, Hikigaya-kun and I…"
"No, it's not that easy," Ryuuen Shiina interrupted unceremoniously, "as long as the soldiers under my command are in contact with other classes, this alone may affect my plan, and others will be suspicious."
Shiina lowered her head again. She didn't seem to have any reason to object.
Right after that, Ryuuen smiled disgustingly at Hikigaya.
"However, if you're willing to give out Class D information, that's a different matter."
"…You mean spies?"
Seeing Pyuen lightly nodding, Hikigaya suddenly looked strange.
Class d...
Is it really only for class D to do so much? !
Initially, Hikigaya thought that Ryuuen would not take Class D seriously. Although it would certainly be very useful in terms of the content of the exam to be able to obtain Class D information, the problem was that only Hikigaya could give out Class D information. This is too much.
Not to mention class D, Hikigaya knew a lot about the entire class, and in the student council, he could come into contact with many things that the other students didn't know about.
But Ryuuen was only thinking about Class D...
Alas, I seem to have overestimated this guy.
However, Ryuuen's words reminded Hikigaya of one thing.
That's why he's been so worried lately.
Currently, class D is at zero and class A is at 940. According to common sense, class D cannot catch up with others.
However, there are miracles in this world.
In case... even if the chance is only one in 100,000, class D will indeed catch up with class A, then in order to fulfill Haruno's request, Hikigaya will have to do something that will harm class D, i.e. be a spy and sabotage .
Honestly, it doesn't matter what guys are in class D.
But that has nothing to do with it. Hikigaya doesn't want to betray others no matter what, as he can't accept himself that way.
But he also didn't want to disappoint Haruno.
Then... just do the opposite.
Simply put, just find a way to buff the other three classes way beyond Class D.
Seriously, why hasn't such a simple thing been thought of yet?
At this point, Hikigaya sincerely thanks Ryuuen. If not for his offer, he would have been worried for a while.
And thank him for reminding me...
—— Ryuuen Kakeru, let me teach you a lesson?
