Kushida, Please Don't Make Things Difficult! Part 2! Two-in-One! (Continued)

Still, she reported the situation.

"The students from our class I just ran into reported that Horikita from Class C was called out by Hashimoto."

This was not gossip. Sakayanagi kept tabs on the uncertain students in the class.

Only those close to Sakayanagi could know such things. Though Hashimoto usually appeared to be Sakayanagi's right-hand man, she did not fully trust him.

And Hashimoto had yet to pass Sakayanagi's assessment.

She had even judged him to be highly likely to betray her.

And now, just as expected.

Without receiving instructions from Sakayanagi, Hashimoto had acted on his own.

"I did not issue orders to most of the students. I allowed you to act freely."

"Reporting information is also your own choice."

"As for Hashimoto approaching students from another class, that is his freedom." Sakayanagi Arisu appeared perfectly calm.

But Kamuro knew that Sakayanagi's opinion of Hashimoto had fallen.

So.

Did Ai Morishita really want to suppress Hashimoto that badly?

Yes.

Morishita had delivered this report. She and Hashimoto had been assigned to the same group, yet despite being classmates, she had kept an eye on his movements.

The moment she noticed something wrong, she reported him.

It was an action she had taken on her own initiative.

And her objective was obvious.

Morishita probably believed Hashimoto had won Sakayanagi's favor. If so, there would be no place left for her.

That was why she wanted to drag Hashimoto down.

So, was becoming Sakayanagi's dog really that appealing?

Kamuro did not understand.

Still.

Since Horikita had been mentioned, Sakayanagi had to say something.

After all, they had previously speculated that Horikita, the younger sister assigned to Class D under the influence of her older brother, would surely come to Class A someday.

Yet that was not the case.

Suzune Horikita
