"That's right."
"Did I come into contact with Classmate Sakayanagi too much and disturb the relationship between classmate Oreki and Classmate Sakayanagi?" Ichinose seemed to be starting to reflect on himself.
"..." Oreki.
No, nothing happens.
Why do you say that?
Oreki does not think that he and Sakayanagi Arisu have become friends, and he will not be jealous because his friend has a better relationship with other people, so Ichinose does not need to worry about it.
"I think you need to pay special attention to it." said classmate Oreki.
"Huh?" Ichinose flicked her slender eyelashes in confusion.
Good-looking girls are cute no matter what expression they have, and now she is looking at him curiously.
"..." Oreki classmate.
Hmm.
What should he say?
Tell her that Classmate Sakayanagi may have made preparations to target her by contacting her.
So Ichinose, you pay attention to safety and so on?
Especially now that it's a new semester, so you're probably going to be attacked.
But this is on the side of Ichinose.
And classmate Oreki knows very well that it is good for Classmate Sakayanagi to have a good impression of him, and then he wants to stop Arisu Sakayanagi's plan and stand on Ichinose's side?
It's obviously not good either.
Because he didn't try to ruin his family's plans from an outsider's perspective.
So do you want to support Classmate Sakayanagi?
But he doesn't want to hurt Ichinose.
"..."
In other words, should I choose Ichinose or Sakayanagi Arisu now?
"..."
Ichinose is an angel.
And Classmate Sakayanagi is the date he dated in the second grade and is also the future mother of one of his children.
And he doesn't hate Classmate Sakayanagi and thinks she's super cute.
Eh!
Oreki classmate found it difficult to make a choice.
As a result, a new problem emerged.
That is.
On the 31st, I went back to school and had lunch break.
Student Oreki received the message from Kikyou Kushida.
[Although I don't want to report it, but.]
[Your Horikita Suzune has been attacked.] by Kikyou Kushida.
"..." Oreki classmate.
--
Hmm.
So why was she the one being attacked?
"Oreki classmate is very busy every day."
During the lunch break, Oreki returned to class after having lunch in the cafeteria, but Classmate Sakayanagi noticed that he was about to leave after reading the message.
"..." Oreki."There are a few things to deal with."
Oh.
Classmate Sakayanagi So I read quietly.
On her desk is a book [Flow] that Oreki mentioned before. Although she is a genius and learns many things very quickly, she is also curious about how classmate Oreki studies. So she wants to learn it.
Of course.
Read a book together.
This can increase your understanding of the other party and increase the number of common topics with the other party.
So she returned her attention to the book.
Oreki went downstairs to Class 1-C.
Kikyou Kushida sent a message and reported some information.
The classmates in the class were not feeling well after lunch break.
It seems that while eating, I obtained information from other classes and was told some rumors about Horikita Suzune. Then I was questioning classmate Horikita.
As for this [other class], it is not convenient for her to disclose it.
However.
For now, the incredible rumors are still limited to Class C due to the length of time.
But if it is not dealt with, it will probably spread throughout the school soon.
Kikyou Kushida is good at obtaining other people's secrets, so he naturally knows that... once a rumor is born, it can have a strong effect.
And given Horikita's character, he probably wouldn't care about this kind of thing.
She doesn't pay much attention to other people and is not interested in other people's gossip, so she is very resistant.
According to her, it's probably to listen to other people's evaluations of me?
I'm not interested.
Because if I really cared about other people's gossip, I would have been obsessed with it since elementary school.
So she has very strong resistance.
After all, I am alone, aloof and awe-inspiring.
But.
[By the way, is Horikita Suzune really the sister of Student Council President?] by Kikyou Kushida.
Kikyou Kushida asked this.
Ah.
In other words, the rumors this time are of this kind.
Classmate Oreki immediately confirmed that classmate Horikita had no resistance.
Because the first time he met Little Sister Horikita alone, it was this sister who was asked by Horikita's Brother to drop out of school.
Although he was retained by him in the end.
But he still understands some of Little Sister Horikita's thoughts.
Little Sister Horikita didn't want to embarrass his brother Manabu Horikita, who was Student Council President, because of his identity. That's why he flew with him, hoping to collect 20 million points, a feat that his brother had not accomplished, and then prove his own strength.
At the same time.
This also shows that she absolutely rejects other people knowing that she and Manabu Horikita are brother and sister.
Because she is not strong enough yet.
It's not that I hate Manabu Horikita, but I have low self-esteem and feel that I will hold Manabu Horikita back and become a weapon for the enemy to attack Manabu Horikita.
Not only is he unable to help, but he also becomes a burden or something.
She was quite disgusted with this kind of thing.
And now.
Her brother-sister relationship with her brother Manabu Horikita has been publicized in the class. To her, this must have caused trouble for her brother.
Then... it's impossible to ignore it.
So I basically sent it.
Thinking like this, classmate Oreki has arrived at the door of Class 1-C.
I saw Horikita Suzune at a glance.
Actually no.
Because although she was in the class, her position was surrounded by other students.
So I couldn't see her among the crowd.
The students around seemed to be curious and asked her questions.
"Horikita classmate--"
"You have received a lot from your brother Student Council President, so it doesn't matter if you give us a little benefit."
Yamauchi chirps authentically.
And this rhetoric shows that they have exposed the information in the class that Horikita Suzune is the younger sister of the excellent Student Council President.
So although I haven't seen classmate Horikita yet, classmate Oreki already feels that she looks pale now.
"After all, in this exam, we can get information from my brother, right?" Yamauchi said.
Yamauchi's biggest impression on the class was his ranking at the beginning of school, which caused the overall evaluation of the boys in the class to drop. At the same time, he initially said that Sakura liked him, but everyone knew that was a lie.
After all, Sakura is a super beauty. As long as there is no problem with her eyes, she will not fall in love with Yamauchi.
And he is quite an irresponsible person.
"What did you say I... gained?" Horikita Suzune seemed confused.
"It's just the test papers! Since I have a brother named Student Council President, I must know about the test papers and stuff."
"Why don't you help us? You know how we studied in the past month."
And a girl talked to her.
As for this girl, Oreki knows that she is the classmate Yoshiko Banjo who was seduced by Ryuuen.
But it's not just her, there are several average-looking girls around her.
In other words, the people who will participate in this kind of questioning are ordinary students who have a relatively low sense of presence in the class.
People with a little bit of brains would not immediately ask so many people in person for the news.
Of course, it is also possible that most of the students in the class have not come back.
Now there are less than 20 students in Class C.
Others are probably still eating.
There was no sign of Megumi or the other hot girls. The gentle Hirata and Kōenji were not there either.
And Horikita Suzune found it incredible.
"Ha..."
"Papers and stuff - how can such a thing happen..."
But her words were interrupted.
"Yeah, it's so convenient to have a brother who is the president of the association - by the way, you have so many points, it must have been given by your brother. I'm so envious." Someone said to me, "I have no money this month, Horikita, please borrow some -"
Hmm.
This is very Class C.
