Exposing Horikita Suzune's Lie, You Are Not Someone Who Gives Up Easily

After the trio of idiots from the class had all left.

Horikita Suzune packed up her study materials, preparing to follow suit.

Then, realizing there was still a classmate beside her, Horikita Suzune asked in a cold, clear voice, "Ayanokouji-kun, are you staying here?"

"Horikita, are you leaving already?" Ayanokouji's tone was flat, as if he hadn't fully woken up yet.

"The people I was meant to tutor have already given up, so there is no need for me to remain."

Mentioning this matter made Horikita Suzune feel a surge of irritation.

She had practically begged those guys to come and study, yet they still maintained such a slack, indifferent attitude.

What a waste of time.

"But if someone in the class ends up dropping out, we might not be able to reach Class A, right?" Ayanokouji used the same tactic he had previously used to persuade Horikita.

It was precisely these words that had forced Horikita to take action and proactively call the annoying trio of idiots from her class over for tutoring.

However, by the second time this tactic was used, Horikita Suzune had already developed some immunity to it.

"Then we simply won't lead the class to Class A."

The girl with long black hair said firmly, "Dokuho Kouya from Class A collected 20 million private points in the first month, which means the school definitely provides a way for individuals to accumulate 20 million private points."

"Since Kouya-kun was able to collect 20 million private points, I also have the opportunity to collect the points needed to reach Class A."

Upon hearing the girl's words, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka retorted in a calm voice, "But last month at the convenience store, you also said you could collect 1.6 million private points, yet in the end, you didn't discover anything."

Horikita Suzune furrowed her brows, looking displeased as she said, "I didn't expect you to remember such things... It is true that I was looking for opportunities to earn private points quickly last month, but I only discovered that the teacher in the swimming class would give 5,000 private points to the winners of the class competition."

"Other than that, I didn't find any other opportunities to obtain points."

Was that really you discovering it?

It was clearly the swimming teacher who announced it voluntarily.

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka felt speechless, finding it hard to understand how Horikita Suzune could be so confident while knowing absolutely nothing.

Just as he was preparing to trick Horikita Suzune into continuing to tutor the trio of idiots, people from another class walked over.

"Suzune-san, I thought I heard someone calling my name just now." Dokuho Kouya walked over with a smile. "Do you have any idea about that?"

They had just mentioned Dokuho Kouya.

And now, the person himself had walked over.

Seeing this, Horikita Suzune did not feel intimidated; instead, she knitted her pretty brows and said with some dissatisfaction, "Kouya-kun, eavesdropping on others is not a good habit."

"I wasn't eavesdropping," Dokuho Kouya said with a light chuckle. "It's just that you were speaking so loudly that even I, sitting not far away, could hear what you were saying."

"Then why were you sitting nearby?" Horikita Suzune continued, "That doesn't prove you don't have a penchant for eavesdropping."

"I just happened to be nearby helping Chihiro and Kozue from my class with their studies. I heard it was a bit noisy over here, so I came over to see what was going on." Dokuho Kouya pointed to the two girls sitting not far behind him.

When Horikita Suzune saw them, she realized the boy wasn't lying, so she let out a soft sigh. "I apologize. We were indeed too loud just now and disturbed your studies."

The library was supposed to be a quiet place for reading.

But just now, guys like Sudo had completely failed to read the atmosphere, and combined with Horikita Suzune being angered by them, the volume of their voices had indeed been quite high.

When one does something wrong, one should admit it properly.

Horikita Suzune was actually quite good when it came to manners.

"Come to think of it, I really didn't expect Suzune-san to take the initiative to help her classmates with tutoring." Dokuho Kouya smiled slightly, his gaze falling on the brown-haired boy beside her. "Was this a suggestion made by Kiyotaka-kun?"

Ayanokouji denied it with an expressionless face, "No, this was Horikita's decision. I was just dragged here by her to make up the numbers."

This was a lie.

But given Horikita's personality, she shouldn't call him out on it.

Hearing what Kouya said, Horikita Suzune narrowed her eyes slightly, crossed her arms, and said, "Kouya-kun, why would you think this was a suggestion made by Ayanokouji-kun?"

"If I hadn't dragged him here, he would probably just be wasting time in the dormitory right now instead of spending time studying."

Ayanokouji felt a bit speechless. "Horikita, you don't have to put it so harshly. I feel quite hurt hearing that."

"Is that so? Then I apologize."

"But judging by your tone, it doesn't sound like you're sorry at all."

"That is your own misconception."

After Horikita Suzune finished bickering with the boy beside her, Dokuho Kouya finally spoke, "Given your personality, Suzune-san, you shouldn't have any desire to help the weak, let alone help Sudo Ken-kun and the others."

"Not to mention me, even the Suzune-san from a month ago wouldn't have imagined that the version of herself a month later would take the initiative to help these people, right?"

Horikita Suzune was stunned for a moment.

It seemed there was indeed some truth to that.

Actually, never mind the version of herself from a month ago.

Even the version of herself from two days ago would never have imagined that she would now be taking the initiative to tutor Sudo and his group.

But if she were to admit it now, the momentum of the conversation would weaken.

Horikita Suzune replied stubbornly, "I simply began to change my strategy once I learned the truth about this school."

"Although I am indeed reluctant to tutor them, I have judged that their strength is necessary to reach Class A, so I took action to provide them with remedial lessons."

"If you think I would have maintained my previous course of action after learning the true nature of this school, then you are sorely mistaken."

Upon hearing the girl's words, Dokuho Kouya smiled. "Horikita-san, your mind is quite agile; you were able to come up with such a suitable excuse as a reason in such a short time."

"If it were a stranger, they would likely believe your words. But if it were someone who knows you well, they would probably see through it easily."

Hearing this, Horikita Suzune furrowed her pretty brows, her expression showing some dissatisfaction. "Kouya-kun, the way you put it, it sounds as if you know me very well."

"However, we have only met a few times. To make such judgments about me based on that alone is far too presumptuous."

Horikita Suzune did not believe that Kouya had seen through her personality.

"Then please, listen to my perspective," Dokuho Kouya said with a smile. "Although I haven't spent much time with you, Horikita-san, I can sense that you are not the type of person to give up easily."

"If you truly wanted to tutor Ken Sudo and the others of your own volition, you wouldn't choose to give up after a single failure; you would continue to persuade them."

Dokuho Kouya paused for a moment, then continued with a teasing tone, "Or is it that I really misjudged you, and you are actually the type who cannot withstand a blow and gives up quickly when encountering a setback?"
