I, the mastermind behind the scenes at Soubu High, refuse to be caught in a bloodbath.

"After all, I want to trample you and the Gidō family on our heads, so the situation is different."

Do you have sadistic tendencies?

"Himekoji, this is almost sexual harassment. I'm calling the police. I can't let this go this time."

As she spoke, Yukinoshita took out her phone again, but her expression was one of suppressing a laugh, not at all like she was going to make a call.

Then she actually dialed it.

"Hey, you bastard, you're really serious!" Himeko snatched the phone, hung up, and shoved it back into her hand. Yukinoshita paused for a moment, then slowly said, "You're really fast at snatching things from girls, and you're ruthless."

"You're even faster at making false police reports."

"Making a false police report? It's absolutely true, but I just can't prove it."

"Yes, that's what people who make false police reports say."

"..."

Yukishiro shook her head and rubbed her forehead.

"You see, a crime is just a beautiful secret as long as it is not discovered."

"I think it's more like an evil secret."

"Don't beauty and evil usually coexist? Look at fallen angels (Mariya!) and vampires."

"I'd like to find some photos of prisoners in jail and show them to you, but the internet here is just too bad."

"Alright, the orienteering activity is now officially starting!"

As soon as the teacher gave the signal, the students quickly divided into groups of five or six. It seems the groups had been decided beforehand, allowing for such a rapid response. For the next few days of camping, everyone will likely be active in small groups.

At the elementary school level, most students are still curious about the opposite sex, so when forming groups, almost all teams are either boys' groups or girls' groups. If a boy mixes into a girls' group or a girl mixes into a boys' group, it will always draw boos from everyone. But when they enter junior high school, the situation is completely different. Boys will try their best to get girls into their groups, and girls will try their best to get their favorite boys into their groups. At this time, everyone will look at them with a sly look, but no one will boo.

If there is one, it must be a pitiful late bloomer.

Since they had nothing to do for the time being, and the high school students were much stronger and faster than the elementary school students, they gathered together and chatted casually. Their task was simply to look after the elementary school students and make sure they didn't get into any accidents, so it was a very easy job. However, things changed after a while, probably because of what Himikoji had said earlier, that if there were any problems, they could ask anyone to come and discuss and solve them together.

So they were pulled around by the elementary school students, who asked them about orienteering signs and such. Hayato Hayama was exhausted, as were Totsuka and Yuihama. Himekoji, Yukinoshita, and Hikigaya were better off because the demon-repelling aura that was constantly active on Hikigaya made it difficult for the elementary school students to ask Himekoji and Yukinoshita.

Alright, Hachiman, I'll stick with you for now. I'm too lazy to deal with elementary school kids!

"I said... Himekoji, what you said before was so, well, so high-sounding, but now you're hardly offering any help."

"Hachiman, to be honest, I really hate dealing with elementary school students and bratty middle school students."

"Huh...? You have things you're not good at too?"

"It's not that I'm not good at it, it's that I hate it. Just getting by is fine, everyone's happy."

"What's the reason—?"

Yukinoshita asked from the side.

"That's right. If you put it that way, how did you get through elementary and middle school?"

Hachiman's elementary and middle school years are truly a painful and dark history. Even his elementary school teacher once said, "I know that no one likes Hachiman, but we should still get along well."

It's better not to say anything at all!

Upon hearing Hikigaya's question, Yukinoshita also turned her curious gaze towards him.

“Okay, I surrender,” Himekoji said, raising her hands and then lowering them. “I never actually went to elementary or middle school.”

"ha---?"

The two men had remarkably similar expressions.

"So what's the problem? I just didn't go to elementary or junior high school."

"No, no, no, this is obviously a big problem, okay?" Hachiman's eyes twitched as he complained, "It's strange that someone who never went to elementary or middle school entered the student council as soon as they entered high school, and then became the president in their second year and did a great job!"

"...So this is what a strong person is like, Hachiman."

Himeko looked at him with a sympathetic gaze and patted him on the shoulder.

"Actually, you've just been receiving elite education at home all along," Yukinoshita pointed out incisively, then crossed her arms smugly and said, "But you're still just a cricket princess, after all, your grades were just last place in an international education class."

"Yes, yes, you're amazing."

Himekoji, completely convinced, made a fist-and-palm gesture to Yukinoshita, indicating that he had lost.

Do you really think I can't beat you academically? I've been in Chinese schools for over ten years and received elite education in Japan for over ten years, and I still can't beat you, Yukinoshita? It's just that if someone does well in every aspect, they are easily targeted and ostracized. It's mainly the ugliness of jealousy. So it's understandable that my grades aren't good. People will say things like, "The student council president is conscientious and responsible, but has fallen behind in her studies," or "She does a great job, but her grades are just average," and so on. Everyone can find a psychological balance point. Anyway, I know my own grades.

Just like you don't need to take a Japanese language proficiency test to speak Japanese, you don't need a driver's license to prove you can drive. In fact, many people who have driver's licenses don't know how to drive.

After the elementary school students' problems were resolved, everyone gathered together again. Except for Yui and Yumiko, almost everyone looked tired. Yui genuinely enjoyed playing with children, while Yumiko was trying so hard to get the compliment of "you're cute too."

If Kawasaki were here too, things would probably be very different? But Kawasaki is a brother-complex character; wouldn't she extend that affection to other people's brothers as well? Judging from her work performance report, that seems to be the case...

"Oh, so that girl is Hitori's sister. I initially thought she was Totsuka's sister, but she doesn't look like her at all."

Hayama looked at Komachi, who was standing next to Hachiman, and nodded thoughtfully.

"By the way, Hayato, his name is Hikigaya, not Hikitani. (The Japanese pronunciations are both hikigaya and hikitani, both spelling Hikigaya, but obviously you can't just pronounce a name randomly.)"

"I see. I'm so sorry," Hayama took a step forward, scratched his head, and said with an apologetic smile, "Hachigaya-kun, I'm sorry about everything before."

"No, nothing's wrong."

—Anyway, it's not the first or second time that people have forgotten my name, so mispronouncing it is already an extremely good situation.

"What? It's Hachiman... I've been mispronouncing his name all this time. His name is really weird."

Yumiko casually twirled her elegant golden curls with her hands, muttering a complaint under her breath.

"Whether it's Hikigaya or Hitori... Ah, wait, if it's a dual personality, then the personality is reversed, and the seme and uke are reversed too! Whoa—! Hasuhasu!"

"Hai, Haibina, nosebleed! Quick, wipe it off, oh my god—you should really try to control it!"

Yumiko hurriedly wiped the blood from Ebina's nose, who was having all sorts of indescribable fantasies.

"Hello, Komachi. I'm Hayato Hayama, a classmate of Hikigaya. Nice to meet you."

"Yes, I appreciate your help, brother. Please continue to guide me."

Komachi was a little startled and took a step back, hiding slightly behind Yuihama to observe Hayama.

Author's Note:

PS: Starting now, I will update once every hour, for a total of ten updates.

Ps2: Requesting blades.

PS3: I almost never post spam, so I might consider enabling custom content.

Try not to skip around while watching; some of the scenes you miss might actually be very important.

When I update twice a day, some people say I'm updating too little. When I update 20,000 or even 40,000 words a day, they skip around. So, should I occasionally suddenly update a lot of chapters and then not update for several days? Should I frequently do sudden bursts of updates followed by sudden breaks?

I don't think this is a good idea... so please read them one by one, it will motivate me to write more.

Chapter 110 The Debate on the Strongest: [Himekoji Haruto] Has a Slight Advantage

"Eh, I didn't realize at first that she was Hitori's sister. It might be more like Yukinoshita's sister."

Yumiko raised her voice, but Hayama shook his head and denied it, saying, "Impossible, because Yukinoshita doesn't have a younger sister."

"Oh, I see... Hmm, how did you know?"

"Well..."

Hayama looked at Yukinoshita, but Yukinoshita's gaze was fixed on the elementary school student, and she ignored him.

Himekoji was aware of the problems between Yukinoshita and Hayama, and it was likely that Hayama's love interest was her. However, it seemed destined to become an unrequited love, as he couldn't solve Yukinoshita's problem or help her.

"But from a primary school student's perspective, high school students are already adults. I thought so too when I was in primary school~"

Totsuka walked behind Hikigaya. He was very popular with the elementary school students, probably partly because of his height. Himekoji was the tallest in the group, while Totsuka and Komachi were the shortest, which made the elementary school students feel more comfortable with him.

After all, it's really unpleasant to look up to others.

“From Komachi’s perspective, high school students really do seem like adults, like Himekoji-senpai…” Komachi paused, then pointed her index finger at Hachiman and said, “But my brother is definitely an exception!”

"Hey, I also complain often, lie, and do dirty and filthy things. Doesn't that make me more like an adult?"

"How pathetic do you think adults are...?" Himekoji patted Hachiman's shoulder with a pained expression. "Responsibility, responsibility, you should have that awareness first!"

"I know that too! But you have to live with those dark things, be accompanied by lies every day, and have loneliness, solitude, and alcohol as your three constant companions... That's how it should be!"

"Don't keep mixing alcohol with loneliness and solitude. Alcohol is a good thing!"

"Oh~, so Haruto-kun, you've had it, haven't you?"

Ye Shan gave himself a half-joking look.

"Mmm..."

Himeko gave a vague answer, leaving it to them to guess whether she had actually tried it or not; those who knew would know.

"Brother! We're doomed! We're really doomed this time!" Komachi tugged at Hachiman's sleeve, trying to get his attention. Hachiman asked impatiently, "What is it this time?"

"Not to mention how terrifying Himekoji-senpai is, even that handsome guy named Hayama is formidable! If this continues, my brother will lose even the last shred of his chance of winning!"

"Unknown meaning..."

"Wow!! My brother is such an idiot, such an idiot, such a blockhead!"

Komachi looked like she was about to cry, repeatedly pounding the back of Hachiman's head.

Because Yukinoshita started glaring at Hayama, he sensed something was off and quickly slipped away to find Hiratsuka Shizuka. His ability to read the room was truly impressive.

Then Shizuka Hiratsuka reappeared and announced, "During the orienteering activity, you will help prepare lunch and distribute it to the children at the finish line. I will drive there first to bring the lunches and drinks."

Because Hiratsuka Shizuka had given them a new goal, the group of idle high school students quickened their pace and hurried forward.

Yukinoshita's gaze was focused on the group of five girls. One girl was noticeably separated from the group, like an outsider. She seemed out of place. This girl was none other than Tsurumi Rumi. This cute girl with purplish hair kept fiddling with her digital camera, keeping a step or two away from the other four girls, and always being careful not to walk with them.
