It's Just Insulting Someone, Right? Kushida Was Stunned! (Part 2)

Because there's no one around, it's difficult to even call for help.

Wait a moment.

Does Hachiman suffer from paranoia?

However, Kushida is indeed very cute, Hachiman thinks that many people like her. Moreover, she shows kindness, so even some people with eccentric personalities are fond of her.

Wouldn't that put her in danger?

With that in mind, Hachiman began to take action.

After all.

Kushida is a usable support character, and we can't let anything happen to her cause problems.

Moreover, the other person is also a classmate, Hachiman can't just ignore everything like that.

The interior of Advanced Nurturing High School is mostly equipped with surveillance cameras.

There are few places without surveillance cameras; most are just empty alleyways.

But there are exceptions.

For example, in dormitories, there are surveillance cameras in the corridors of the girls' dormitories.

However, the floor where the boys' dormitory is located does not have this feature.

Outside the apartment, beyond a patch of green grass and trees, lies the boundary of the school.

Ocean.

The location of Advanced Nurturing High School is an artificial island. The edges of the island are very neatly maintained and surrounded by railings to prevent anyone from falling in by accident.

Often, students here choose to walk to the railing, lean against it, and look at the sea.

Or it could be looking across the sea at a city just a few kilometers away on the other side.

In fact, Hachiman never thought that distance was anything, even though there were only two bridges spanning several kilometers connecting Advanced Nurturing High School and Tokyo.

But actually, the students here could simply jump into the sea and swim back.

Yes, of course, no one would ever choose to do that.

Neatly trimmed trees line both sides of the road, and streetlights are placed every ten meters. The ground is paved with stone slabs with exquisite patterns, and there are also wooden benches with metal armrests for two people to rest on.

Further on, the stone path turned into a two-meter-wide wooden floor.

It must be said that the school has truly achieved the highest level of excellence in these details.

In addition, I really spent a lot of money.

They're so rich.

"Snap—crack—Snap—"

Hachiman walked along the coastal railing toward the dormitory, but when he was only halfway there, he heard a muffled sound with a clear, metallic ringing tone.

It appears that someone deliberately damaged the railing.

Could it be that some Wa action has occurred that requires struggle and fighting?

Hachiman quickened his pace and headed there.

But soon, he stopped again.

Because.

Hachiman saw Kushida clearly under the streetlights, standing by the railing.

But it wasn't that something happened to her; it was just that she was all alone there.

And.

She was... venting her frustrations by looking at the railing.

Kushida has short, ear-length hair and is quite pretty.

However, her current actions are not graceful at all.

Because.

At this moment, she raised her right leg and kicked the railing with all her might, completely lacking any ladylike qualities, like a violent maniac.

Looking at her appearance, you would never imagine that she has such strength.

And the kicks were really hard, bang bang bang.

Of course, from this perspective, she was completely oblivious to the fact that she had already exposed herself.

It's black lace.

I didn't expect her to be so mature.

Kushida kicked the railing while venting his emotions.

"That bitch Horikita!"

"Just because you're pretty and have good grades, you act all high and mighty, thinking everyone will like you?"

"You finally became my friend, without even considering how hard I tried!"

"Does wanting to be my friend mean I have to obey you?"

"What kind of great favor is this?!"

"Why doesn't Horikita just die! Die, die, die!"

"Bitch, that bitch Horikita ..."

The girl kicked the railing with all her might, uttering vicious words. Her once sweet and lovely face was now twisted and ferocious, as if she had been completely corrupted.

This is completely different from her usual innocent and pure demeanor. If someone were to see her like this, I'm afraid everyone in Class C, no, the entire school, would collapse.

After all, the seemingly angelic, pure and innocent girl he secretly admired and secretly loved turned out to be this kind of person.

My goal is to become friends with everyone here.

[That's so mean! I didn't have any ulterior motives; I just wanted to be friends with Horikita.]

[Hachiman, I want to get along better with Horikita, can you help me?]

[Good morning, Horikita ~]

Considering the sweet smile and gentle words she usually speaks, combined with her current state, there is no doubt that this is a huge contrast.

However, it's not cute.

If others saw this, they would probably only feel disgusted and repulsed.

Because people always yearn for beauty in their hearts, and once beauty is associated with anything unpleasant, it will be despised.

Just like a good person who has done countless good deeds but accidentally made one mistake, and a bad person who has done countless bad deeds but turned over a new leaf, people will always subconsciously be lenient and tolerant towards the latter while being harsh on the former.

As for Hachiman...

As a human observer, and having long suspected that Kushida was a ticking time bomb, who knows when she might explode.

But now.

The side of this bomb that was exposed was actually nothing special.

Yes.

It's surprising to see that this is the face of the little angel we know and love.

But.

You need to understand this: people who truly care about others are few, if not almost non-existent.

Although it's almost true, Hachiman has never encountered such a person before.

However, he does not deny that such people may exist.

However, most people have something in mind.

So, like Kushida.

Hachiman doesn't believe she is absolutely good, but she does act good in her daily life, so she must have accumulated a lot of emotions, which is why she is venting them now.

This is... well, let's just say it's a normal reaction.

Only.

"Horikita is truly innocent, sigh."

Hachiman shook his head, unsure of what to say.

No one knew Horikita better than him, so he knew very well that although Horikita knew that a class in junior high school had gone on strike, he did not know that it was Kushida.

So.

Horikita has always treated others, including Kushida, with his own attitude.

So.

Horikita, despite his condition, was still scolded by Kushida.

It is somewhat pitiful.

But just as she was thinking this, the sound of kicking the railing and the girl's clear yet venomous curses came again.

"That Hachiman Hikigaya."

"Class Advancement me to Class Advancement, are you treating me like a tool? You always bother me, don't you know you're annoying me?!"

"And the test paper is unusable, so all my hard work was for nothing!"

"..."

As he said this, Kushida continued to kick the railing to vent his frustration.

Hachiman remained silent.

Because that's the kind of person Kushida thinks he is. If there's a problem, Kushida will help; otherwise, she'll just leave.

But there are just so many things to do.

Although it's undeniable, that's what Kushida thinks.

"Hachiman Hikigaya, you're such a jerk, so pretentious!"

"What do you mean by finding true friends? Don't you know you're causing trouble?!"

"I have so many friends to deal with, I don't have time to care about you!"

Click click click!

Kushida continued kicking the railing.

Although I don't know how long she had been cursing Horikita, now that Hachiman has arrived, it seems like she was mostly cursing him.

Um.

"..." Although I know that Kushida is probably just venting her daily emotions.

But.

Hachiman isn't in a good mood right now.

Then.

Normally, if he happens to see Kushida venting, he will leave without disturbing him.

But now.

Hachiman then walked directly towards Kushida from a short distance away, deliberately making his steps heavy.

Footsteps were heard.

Although Kushida was kicking the railing to vent his anger, he had no hearing problems.

They heard Hachiman's footsteps.

"Scare!"

Kushida jolted awake, taking several steps back to distance himself from the railing he had just kicked. It was as if by getting away from his target, he could completely sever ties with his previous dark image.
