Although Yamauchi stopped asking questions recklessly, the discussion in the class continued. Even though Kiyotaka was sitting in his seat, he could hear Hui Yong denying the rumors with a very disgusted voice.

"Oh, no, how is that possible."

"Ah, what a disgusting rumor. I can't accept it."

“That’s going to be a bit gross.”

Wait a minute. Three denials like this.

Horikita took out the terminal and took a look at it, then turned to Kiyotaka and spoke softly.

"Kamiki said that Ichinose didn't come to school today. Also, you brought something with you except for Class A this time... Aren't you afraid of making things worse? Kamiki said there are rumors in their discussion forum as well."

"Who knows..."

Horikita rolled her eyes at Kiyotaka.

"Come with me after school. I want to know about the situation of Shimo-no-Ze."

"it is good."

Although the class was buzzing with discussions, which would probably not stop any time soon, Chabashira walked in as if nothing had happened at the appointed time, suppressed all the noise, and began the mock exam that had been announced.

The difficulty of the mock exam seems to be much higher than the usual exams, but if you really study hard, you can still cope with it. However, for those with poor academic ability, it is like a warning that if you don’t work hard, you will really fail and drop out of school.

Today was supposed to be the gathering time for the Ayanokouji group, but because Kiyotaka had to accompany Horikita after school, Kiyotaka asked them to start on their own. After all, the big problem still lies with Akito and Haruka, and he believes Yukimura can handle it well.

And Shinqi didn't like to attract attention, so after school, Horikita led Kiyotaka to the south gate of the mall. Because of the distance, there were not many people here, so it was a suitable place.

Although Qinglong has his own plans, it is still good to know more about some situations that he cannot know at other times, so Qinglong appears here.

And most importantly, Hashimoto is still following Kiyotaka.

This gave Qinglong a headache, he had to get rid of him quickly.

I wonder if potential members of Class A will emerge through this contact with Class B?

If only Hashimoto was there, Kiyotaka would be a little disappointed, as if he was being wasted...

Chapter 206 Conflict between AD Class

But fortunately, Hashimoto did not disappoint Qingtaka.

Just as Horikita and Shinki were chatting, several figures appeared in front of them, no, it would be more accurate to say, they appeared in front of Shinki.

"Kamiki-san, I heard that Ichinose-san didn't come to class today? Is this really okay? What if this continues? What will happen to the final exam?"

"Sakayanagi..."

Shinqi couldn't help but clench his fists when he saw Sakayanagi and several people from her faction appearing before him.

Sakayanagi looked at Shinqi's face full of vigilance and anger and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Hey...it seems like we're not very welcome?"

"How do you expect to be popular if you spread weird rumors everywhere?"

Sakayanagi looked at Shenqi in surprise, as if he had no idea what he was talking about.

"What on earth are you referring to? Did I do something?"

Shenqi snorted softly.

"Even if you spread rumors, the unity of Class B will not be easily broken by you!"

"Although I don't know what misunderstanding you are in, I will look forward to it."

After saying that, Sakayanagi turned around and left with her people. Before leaving, Qingtaka clearly realized that she glanced at him, but it was fleeting.

Because of Sakayanagi's appearance, Shinqi naturally had no mood to continue chatting with Horikita.

So the three of them separated.

Qinglong went to the study group to check on the situation, and after doing some exercises with them, they dispersed and returned to the dormitory.

Arriving at the dormitory, Kiyotaka hesitated for a moment, but still pressed the button for Ichinose's floor.

Knock on the door, get a response.

"Which one?"

Ichinose's voice had obviously improved a lot, but it was still very weak. Kiyotaka sensed that this weakness was not physical.

"it's me."

"Kiyotaka...? Sorry, I seem to be getting sicker. I can't let you in."

Qinglong did not force it, but sat down at the door of the room.

"It's okay. I just want to accompany you. It doesn't matter even if there's a door between us."

Ichinose in the room turned slightly lower when she heard Kiyotaka's voice, and there was a sound of light resistance on the door. She reacted immediately, but was also a little stunned.

"Kiyotaka...you don't have to be like this, go back first, I'm fine."

"Is that letter really that important to you?"

Ichinose fell silent at this sudden remark.

Qing Long had expected this development, so he changed the subject.

"What about tomorrow, will you come to school?"

"I have no idea..."

"Oh... Really? There's still some time before curfew. I'll rest here for a while."

Just like that, Kiyotaka sat silently in front of Ichinose's door until the curfew time was about to come.

"I'm leaving first, you have a good rest."

"I'm sorry, Kiyotaka... I need some time. I'll go to school once I've dealt with myself, so... could you please not come over again?"

Kiyotaka didn't reply, but slowly left the floor.

As Kiyotaka expected, Ichinose still did not show up at school the next day. He even refused to respond to calls from his classmates who came to his door, saying he was not feeling well and declined to open the door.

And after Kiyotaka learned that Ichinose did not come to school, he sneaked to Ichinose's door during lunch break and knocked.

"I heard that you didn't go to school again today."

Kiyotaka did not expect a reply from Ichinose. He sat at the door just like he did last night until the class was about to start, then he simply said goodbye to Ichinose and left.

Kiyotaka would sit outside Ichinose's door every day just to make sure she didn't come to school.

In addition to the rumors about Ichinose, the rumors spread in the discussion forum also began to ferment and even intensified.

There was even a violent conflict on the 18th.

February 18th, Friday.

Some distance away from the school building and dormitory, the students from the three classes other than Class B gathered.

"Hey, Ishizaki, is there something you want me to do?"

Hashimoto looked at Ishizaki across from him with a nonchalant look.

"What do you mean by something? Didn't I ask you to come alone? What do you mean by calling Onitsuka?"

"Tsk, didn't you also call Albert? No one should say anything about anyone else, okay?"

The atmosphere was somewhat tense, and everyone present exuded a depressing and suffocating atmosphere.

"I think we are here to discuss issues today, right, Ishizaki-san?"

Along with Ishizaki and Albert, Hiyori and Ibuki also appeared.

Judging by how Ibuki followed Hiyori closely, she had obviously done what Kiyotaka had asked her to do.

"Let's not talk about that for now. Why is Ayanokouji here?"

Hashimoto pointed at Qinglong who was standing beside him with a headache, looking a little dumbfounded.

Kiyotaka just held his hands up.

"I said I was just passing by, do you believe me?"

Hashimoto didn't seem to care at all why Kiyotaka was here.

He turned and looked in the direction of Class D.

"Never mind, whatever. So what's the matter with calling me out? Shiina."

Shiina also stood up, his tone always so gentle.

"Regarding the spread of rumors, it was your class A who spread them, right?"

"Hey, hey, be responsible for what you say. What do you mean it came from our class A?"

"But a classmate saw you, Hashimoto-san, telling others rumors about Ichinose-san, right?"

Obviously, Hiyori had his own actions and only took action after obtaining evidence.

Hashimoto, however, looked unconvinced.

"I just found the news very interesting and shared it with my friends, is that not okay?"

"However you want to cover it up, it has nothing to do with me, but not only did you spread rumors about Ichinose, you also dragged our Class D into it. What do you want, Hashimoto!"

Ishizaki couldn't stand it anymore and glared at Hashimoto.

"Oh... I see. You don't really care about Ichinose, do you? You're only concerned about the rumor that your class D was being walked out? Hey, I remember you were also involved? Ishizaki-san, the one who 'played a prank on an elementary school student and was sent to a welfare institution'?"

Hashimoto looked at Ishizaki teasingly and provoked him mercilessly.

For Ishizaki, this provocation was very effective. It was visibly that Ishizaki's mind was breaking. Even if Hiyori reached out to stop Ishizaki at the first moment, she was unable to do it.

Being spread rumors is frustrating enough, and having it said to his face, Ishizaki certainly couldn't stand such a humiliation.

Ishizaki clenched his fists and rushed over.

"Oh? You want to fight? I don't mind."

Kito, who had been silent all the time, stood up and directly blocked Ishizaki's fierce punch.

Hashimoto laughed at the scene.

"Do you really think that we in Class A have no fighting power and are afraid of you in Class D, a bunch of reckless people who only know how to fight? It just so happens that the student union doesn't care about minor fights right now, so we don't mind playing with you, okay?"

The invisible pressure became even greater, as if a big fight was about to break out.

Chapter 207: Armed Suppression and Cooperation

Ishizaki clenched his fists and confronted Hashimoto and Kito. He looked particularly angry as he saw Hashimoto smiling disdainfully.

"I'm already angry about you making up rumors about me, but now with your attitude, do you think that since Ryuuen is no longer our leader, you look down on us?"

Hashimoto glanced at Kiyotaka who had been watching quietly on the side, and it was unknown what he was thinking in his heart.

But he continued speaking along the lines of what Ishizaki said.

"Hey... do you have some self-awareness? Without Ryuen backing you up, what can a reckless man like you really count for? In the final analysis, you don't think we're afraid of you just because of your brute force, do you?"

Patience, extreme patience.

Ishizaki's patience has reached its limit.

He finally couldn't stand Hashimoto's provocation anymore, and his punches were no longer tentative, but he punched towards Hashimoto with all his strength.

But Ishizaki was stopped by Kito midway and got into a fight.

"Ibuki!!"

Ishizaki roared.

Ibuki just watched in silence until Hiyori spoke.

"Ibuki-san, I don't want this to happen, but I can't stand watching my classmates being bullied. Can you please help me?"

Ibuki just nodded and rushed out like an arrow.

Because Kito and Ishizaki were entangled with each other, Ibuki came to Hashimoto unhindered.

"Hey, hey, Ibuki-chan, I forgot you can fight so well."
