I was plotting against Hoshino Ai but was pushed back

The Curse of Knowledge

That is, once we know something, we cannot imagine how it looks to someone who does not know it. When we explain our knowledge to others, it is difficult for us to fully explain what we know to the other party because of the information asymmetry.

The curse of knowledge is similar to information asymmetry in market relations. It is because of the asymmetry of information between the two parties that some deviations in the results of things are obtained.

Therefore, the problem that seemed simple to him seemed like something unknown to Hoshino Ai.

Saito Hiko watched Hoshino Ai doing exercises for a while, and saw her frowning and thinking hard. He felt that it was too inefficient to let her study alone.

Today is January 1nd, and the exam will be held in a while.

If his grades by then are similar to those in his previous school, or even worse, he won't be able to do whatever he wants so happily as the president in the future.

You have to teach her.

So he picked up the math book and said, "Your basics are too poor. Let me teach you again."

"Yeah." Hoshino Ai nodded.

Saitohiko pointed at the textbook and taught her in a low voice, but after a while he found that she was not very good at memorizing.

After only teaching a few pages, he said he wanted to go back and memorize them.

This made Saito Hiko feel distressed.

The teaching went smoothly, but I couldn’t remember anything.

It's a bit difficult.

Saito Hiko thought again of the false rumor that fish only have a memory of seven seconds.

Although the seven-second memory is fake, it is also recognized that fish have poor memory. But even so, they can still remember some things.

If fish can learn, then Hoshino Ai can too.

Just teach her more and let her write more exercises. When she needs the knowledge, she will become proficient in it even without recalling it because of the huge amount of exercises.

But...is this really a good idea?

Saito Hiko decided to let Hoshino Ai choose.

After all, she will shine on the stage and achieve brilliant achievements in the future.

Even from the performance point of view, the benefits she gained from studying were not as high as being an idol.

"You're having such a hard time studying and you need to practice after school. It seems like you can't balance school and idolizing. What are you going to choose?"

Saitohiko asked the girl.

"I didn't find studying difficult, I just couldn't remember much."

Hoshino Ai looked at her math book and said, "Idol activities haven't started yet, so I don't know if I can handle it."

"But I want to try my best." Hoshino Ai smiled and looked at Saito Hiko, and said firmly, "If you don't try your best, how do you know you can't do it?"

"Yes, only by working hard can you know the results. But don't worry, I will help you plan a study plan."

Saito Hiko secretly made up his mind that if things didn't go well with her studies, he would then organize the content that she would learn for the exam and teach her directly.

Chapter 14 The Clown

As soon as the math class ended and the teacher left the classroom, two boys walked up to Saito Hiko with envious looks in their eyes.

At the same time, several girls also went to find Hoshino Ai.

"I thought you were in the same group with us, but I didn't expect that the transfer student would betray us as soon as he got here." One of them said bluntly without any scruples.

Another boy asked, "Did Hoshino know you before he transferred here?"

"I didn't know her last week either."

Saitohiko is telling the truth.

These two boys were his 'friends' at school.

The boy who had no scruples was called Kento Yamazaki, and the other boy was called Tetsuya Sato.

If it weren't for the two of them, it would be so boring for him to be alone in school without anyone to talk to.

This is also to avoid being left alone.

Because being alone and having no friends on campus greatly increases the chances of being bullied.

Even though his peers probably couldn't beat him, he was afraid that they would call on their friends and be outnumbered.

And bullying isn't just about violence.

The most important thing is that the class concept in Japan is too strong.

They are obviously just students. When the seniors ask the juniors to do something, the juniors cannot refuse, otherwise they will get into trouble. The seniors will even shamelessly form a group to "teach a lesson" to the troublemakers who disrespect the seniors.

The reason why Saito Hiko knew this so clearly was because when he was in elementary school, he felt that there was no need to play with other kids, so he was left alone and was told to do things by the seniors.

He refused, and then the seniors wanted to teach him a lesson because he had the ability to remember everything he saw after traveling through time. When he was about to be beaten, he recalled the scenes and movements from the martial arts movies he watched in his previous life.

He knocked the other person down easily, then kicked him until he was unable to resist.

He thought it was over at that time, after all, the other party was in the wrong. However, when Saito Hiko saw the other party a few days later, he felt that he wanted revenge.

Considering that the guy was weak, he also showed a desire for revenge.

Tell him not to run away after school and challenge him one-on-one.

Saito Hiko felt that the guy must have called for help, otherwise how could he have the courage to fight him one-on-one?

Therefore, when he realized it that day, he immediately skipped class and ran away early to avoid being blocked by others.

But I don't know what method the other party used, but they found more than a dozen people to take turns blocking him.

If I wasn't familiar with the terrain, I would have almost been stuck.

This situation lasted for more than a week before the man gave up.

For this reason, Saito Hiko had to find an opportunity after school to beat up all those who had participated in chasing and intercepting him.

There was even a rumor at that time that if you didn't go home directly after school and wandered around outside, you would be put in a sack and beaten with a stick.

The victims who were beaten with sacks were from several schools, so after learning that they had all been beaten, they contacted each other and found out that their common point was that they had all participated in "blocking" lower grade students.

But for the sake of face, they could only consider themselves unlucky. At the same time, they did not dare to bother the ruthless man who had beaten more than a dozen of them.

In fact, they still feel more depressed. They can't stop the person and they are beaten by the other party. If they tell others, they will know.

It will only make people think that they are too stupid. How can they survive in the underworld in the future?

However, Saito Hiko felt that because of this incident, they had wasted more than a month of precious time, so he thought that trouble should be avoided if possible.

After all, it is a waste of time for one person to plot against a group of people.

"I really envy you. Not only are you handsome, but you're also good at studying. Before today, I didn't even know you were such a good storyteller. I even saw a girl crying just now." Yamazaki Kento said carelessly.

Saito Hiko heard the girl next to him asking Hoshino Ai various questions.

For example, where did you study before?

Questions such as why was I transferred before the final exam?

It seemed that because he had taken up the break time in the last class, their time to communicate with Hoshino Ai was delayed.

And Saito Hiko also discovered that they were the ones who shed tears when listening to the story.

"Being handsome is innate, there's nothing I can do about it, but you can study and get good grades," Saito Hiko joked.

"Study? Just spare me. I can hardly understand what the teacher is saying. If I lose focus, I won't know what the teacher is talking about. Besides, some teachers have a very strong hypnotic effect when teaching." Yamazaki Kento replied without thinking, "If it weren't for my strong will, I would have been hypnotized into a fool by the teachers."

"You guy, stop preaching about willpower. If you really have strong willpower, just go and learn." Sato Toru complained.

"I can do everything except studying!" said Yamazaki Kento confidently.

"My family finally gave me money to buy a new game yesterday. Do you want to come and play with us after school today?" Toru Sato invited the two of them.

"Great, there's a new game to play." Yamazaki Kento agreed without hesitation.

"I'm sorry, I have something to do right now and can't come and play." Saito Hiko shook his head and refused.

If it was him last week, he would definitely agree, but now he has to find a way to investigate who is behind this.

Although there are still more than three years before the story begins.

But he didn't want to end up like Aqua, who spent ten years investigating and failed to find any useful information.

The only low-level exhaustive method is to use DNA testing one by one.

It's time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly.

He obviously only needed to ask the president or his wife about activities that Hoshino Ai had participated in, or places like training bases, wouldn't the scope be narrowed down a lot?

In ten years, we should be able to find it, right?

But at the end of the first episode, he said that the revenge drama had just begun.

In Saito Hiko's opinion, hasn't it been ten years, and he doesn't even know who is behind this?

It is clearly stated that he was a doctor in his previous life, but he behaves like a newborn baby.

Perhaps this is also the 'setting' of the original author.

Maybe it’s because the protagonist is too young to be written about?

Or will he be able to find the mastermind himself after the plot begins?

After all, Saito Hiko doesn't know what's going to happen next.

If he knew that the doctor did not determine the murderer based on his own reasoning, and that the real murderer died for love.

But he turned a blind eye to such a huge gap in time and actually thought that revenge was over.

Without further investigation, is he really the murderer? Would the mastermind commit suicide for love?

This reason is outrageous.

If the mastermind behind this had any feelings for Hoshino Ai, he would never reveal Ai's whereabouts.

If Saito Hiko knew that the doctor later learned that the real murderer was not dead, his first reaction would be to think it was impossible, and then he would ask others to point out such an obvious loophole in the time. He did not even review the known information and had to wait for the other party to say:
