However, I feel that the trivial things they talk about are meaningless. Since we have to talk about it, it is better to talk about something that will help progress.
You are an international student from China, and I think there should be some merits in Chinese language, so I would like to learn Chinese from you.
Of course, you can ask me if you have anything you don't know about studying. "
"Okay, okay, 'hearing', right? A 'hearing' is..."
Horikita repeated several times.
Bai Lan nodded, and after verifying the other party's pronunciation, he couldn't help but said, "No, you just talk about studying when you see other people chatting with good friends?"
"Well, after all, it's during the mission, and my time is yours. So, what should we talk about if we don't talk about studying among friends?"
"I'm not very sure. I haven't stayed in school for a long time, and I don't know much about the chats between my peers."
"Don't know what your peers are chatting about? So have you ever chatted with people of different ages in the past?"
"Absolutely?"
"Then what are you talking about?"
"Talk about the weather."
"Weather? Is that how you say hello to those uncles and aunties? 'The weather is really nice today', is that right?"
"What, I'm talking about choosing the location and method of setting up camp by checking the weather, as well as the activity range of animals."
"What's the use of learning this? "Horikita said indifferently.
Bai Lan felt very unhappy when he saw something he was proud of being belittled, and couldn't help but say:
"Do you think you are powerful? Very good?"
"I feel that my hard work and achievements should be worthy of the evaluation of 'excellent'."
"But you were assigned Class D."
"But that's because there's something wrong with this school's evaluation standards!"
"Even your brother doesn't like you."
"Damn it!"
When Bai Lan carried Horikita Manabu out, the sister Horikita was instantly talked about.
"Have you ever said something like this? You said: You don't need redundant and useless communication, you can live a good life just by yourself? "Bai Lan suddenly asked.
When Kushida first approached Horikita to make friends, Horikita said something like this to reject Kushida.
Horikita replied, "I have said so, what's wrong? Any questions?"
Bai Lan: "The history of mankind is the history of mankind's struggle against the mighty power of nature and its efforts to survive and reproduce!
Therefore, as a human being, our most basic requirement is actually 'survival'. "
"I have the confidence to use what I have learned to survive on my own in this world. "Horikita is full of confidence.
Bai Lan added, "Then if you were thrown alone on an isolated island far away from human habitation, how long would you survive? Can you go home by yourself?"
"What?"
"You are confident that you can survive alone, but in fact, your survival is not the result of your 'alone'. At best, you just don't have close contact with those who participate in all aspects of your life.
What you are good at actually involves only a very small part of what is necessary for human beings.
The food you eat, the clothes you wear, and the tools you use are not something you can get by "alone". "
"But that's what I got in exchange for my 'independent' reward, and I don't owe them anything."
"Who gave you your reward?"
"If I'm working for someone else, the payment comes from the boss, and if I'm running it alone, it's the customer."
"So, whether you can be paid depends on whether the boss is willing to hire you, or whether the customers like you. So, in the final analysis, you still have to 'rely on' others."
"I believe that as long as I have good enough abilities, the boss will be willing to ask me for something and the customers will be willing to find me."
"Ha~ The premise is that you are really good enough to be irreplaceable and cannot survive without you. Are you really that good? If you are really so good that I can't do it without you, why don't you even Class A? Oh~ Even Class B and Class C don't want you, so obviously, you are not that good."
"I will continue to work hard!"
"However, you already spend ten hours a day studying, and deducting necessary exercise and rest, you have almost no free time at the end of the day. How many hours can you squeeze out to 'work harder'?
An hour? Two hours?
Is it true that studying for an extra hour or two every day will make you so good that people will ignore your flaws? Does it have to be you? "
Horikita fell silent.
After a while, Horikita asked, "Can you do it?"
"When you are alone on a desert island, you can't even look at other people's faces, and interpersonal relationships are useless.
In this case, you really can only rely on yourself.
Your food, your clothes, your shelter, pots and pans all have to be obtained from nature by yourself.
You can't just trade what you're good at for money, and then use the money that's convenient for you to trade in for all the things you need.
Therefore, you must learn how to cope with various harsh conditions, survive, and even live a prosperous and happy life.
Only in this way can you show that you can really "survive alone without relying on others."
And now, can you do it? "
Horikita was silent for a moment again, then shook his head and said, "I haven't done any in-depth research on how to deal with it when I fall into that situation.
I always say that I don't want to rely on others and like to be independent, but in the end, I have actually received help from so many 'others' unintentionally.
It's like accepting help from others but despising them?
Maybe, this is where my brother doesn't approve of me.
Maybe, he also feels that I... are too dependent on him, but I can't repay him with anything, and I am simply holding him back?
What you mentioned does have some use.
I really should learn something about this, at least to ensure that I can survive at least even if I lose everyone I can rely on. "
Seeing that Horikita was convinced by himself, Bai Lan was very proud.
"Then let me ask you, with weather like today, how should we choose a place to stay? "At this time, Horikita asked.
When asked about the topic he was interested in, Bai Lan replied subconsciously, "First of all, we need to look at the terrain..."
"What if it's going to rain?"
"Then stay away from hillsides and water sources..."
"What if it's raining?"
"Through geographical knowledge, through soil, identify rock mass..."
"Then..."
Wait!
Bai Lan suddenly reacted: Why did he change back to helping Horikita Manabu learn new knowledge for Matoba?
At the beginning, Bai Lan was a little eager to express himself because he was asked about topics he was interested in.
You can wait until the initial heat wears off...
In addition, Horikita asked questions in a very serious manner.
The two of them just asked and answered questions dryly.
It was like a graduation defense.
All in all, very boring.
After a while, Bai Lan began to feel tired.
But when I think about the topic of survival in the wild, I started it myself. If I take the initiative to suppress it, it seems a bit unethical, and I feel like a scumbag who ran away after flirting.
Thinking of this, Bai Lan suppressed his impatience and continued to teach Horikita what the other party wanted to know about survival in the wild.
Because they were talking while walking, Bai Lan and Horikita walked slower than usual.
Horikita The distance that usually takes five minutes to walk ended up taking more than ten minutes.
Even after entering the classroom, Horikita still followed Bai Lan to ask for more knowledge points, holding a notebook in his hand and taking notes while asking.
Completely ignoring the strange looks from everyone in the class.
Bai Lan didn't give up when he saw Horikita, and Bai Lan didn't want to admit defeat. He ignored other people's gazes and continued to ask and answer questions all the way to his seat.
It wasn't until the bell rang for the morning meeting that Horikita stopped with unfinished thoughts.
Seeing this, Bai Lan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I can finally say goodbye to this torture.
However, what he didn't know was that this was just the beginning.
Before the bell rang and Chabashira entered the classroom.
"Lend me a notebook, I've run out of it. "Horikita suddenly reached out to Bai Lan and said.
After hearing this, Bai Lan looked at the notebook that the other party had just put away with a puzzled look.
If he read correctly, less than a third of that notebook is used, right?
Is this called "running out"?
The next moment, Bai Lan felt the phone vibrate.
There is mail.
"From: First-Year Class B-Horikita Suzune
Content: The information I investigated shows that borrowing things from each other is also an important pavement for the development of relationships between men and women in high school, and everything is just a shield. "
96. Longevity! Horikita Manabu is broken!
"...Everything is just a shielding mission."
