"Sorry, I went to bed early last night and my terminal was on silent mode so I didn't hear it."
"Oh, that doesn't matter. Anyway, do you know that you are being targeted? Someone wants you to drop out of school."
"Yeah...I know."
Karuizawa called in a hurry just to tell Kiyotaka about this matter, but hearing his nonchalant tone made her a little angry.
"You know, aren't you going to do something about this? You might actually get kicked out of school."
Qinglong also smiled when he heard this.
"It's okay. I know what's going on. Since you got this news, it proves that you have also been won over, right?"
"Yes, it was Kikyo who persuaded them. As far as I know, many people have agreed, at least more than half!"
Qinglong understood immediately after hearing this. The situation was already very clear.
"Okay, I get it. I'll take care of it. You don't have to say anything. Just behave normally and don't sell yourself out."
"I won't!"
Hui snorted and hung up the phone.
She stared at the terminal blankly, feeling anxious.
You bastard...what will I do if you get expelled from school...you are my host...
But is it really just like that? It is unknown, but Karuizawa's inner restlessness never stopped.
After hanging up Hui's call, Qinglong also looked through the terminal and found a message from Maya. The content was almost the same as Hui's.
Qinglong edited a message to reassure her and sent it to her, then left the terminal, got up, washed, and changed his clothes.
The time is tight and the task is heavy. It’s really busy.
Chapter 228 The Storm
Today is Thursday, the third day.
When Qinglong came to the classroom today, the special attention he was looking at was even more obvious, or it could be said to be already blatant.
Even some people who were not in the know noticed this depressing atmosphere.
When Haruka saw Kiyotaka coming to the classroom, she came over immediately.
"Hey... Kiyotaka, don't you think the atmosphere in the classroom is weird right now? It feels very depressing, and many people are looking at you in strange ways?"
Kiyotaka looked at Haruka in surprise.
I didn't expect that she was so sensitive to the atmosphere and could even detect the cause directly. This surprised Qinglong.
But Kiyotaka didn't tell Haruka the truth, he just smiled faintly.
"It's okay? I don't feel it myself. Maybe it's because the exam is approaching and everyone will get attention. After all, anyone in the class may be disliked. Everyone's nerves are tense. "
“Is that so…Is that so?”
Although Kiyotaka's explanation was very reasonable, Haruka always felt something was odd, but she couldn't tell what was odd for the moment, so she could only give up.
"By the way, if you get close to me like this, aren't you afraid that they will think we are banding together and feel a sense of crisis, and include you in it?"
Kiyotaka looked at Haruka half-jokingly.
Haruka took a bite indifferently.
"What are you afraid of? There are so many groups now, big and small. We can have one or two of them. If I have to keep my distance from you, it would be so boring."
"That's true, but class is about to start, you should go back first."
Kiyotaka gave Haruka a gentle smile and watched Haruka return to her seat.
"You are playing dumb."
Horikita, who had been standing nearby, saw Haruka return to her seat and then started talking to Kiyotaka without anyone noticing.
"Huh? Is there any?"
"Of course what you said makes sense, because the exam is approaching and everyone's nerves are a little tense, but the way they pay attention to you is particularly different, so there is only one inference, that is, you have become the target of concentrated attack. It's amazing that you are indifferent after knowing this situation? What would you do if they really made it happen? This class would really be a mess without you."
"Wow, stop flattering me. I haven't done anything. I don't even know in my heart why I'm so important to this class."
Kiyotaka's expression didn't change at all. He just answered Horikita's questions calmly as usual. He even lay down on the table and took a nap because he was a little sleepy.
Horikita glanced at Kiyotaka with complicated eyes, and when she saw that he had no desire to continue the conversation, she gave up.
I don't know whether he is able to handle it with ease or just surrender...
No one could guess what Qinglong was thinking. He just lay quietly on the table and slept all day. Even when Chabashira came over, he just glanced at him briefly and didn't wake him up.
As the situation developed, when Qinglong left after school, many people looked at him with a hint of pity in their eyes.
Haruki Yamauchi, the instigator of everything, was startled by the vibration of the terminal in his pocket.
He nervously took out the terminal, and couldn't help but tremble when he saw the signature on the letter.
He nervously picked up his schoolbag, ignored the invitation to play games from his usual playmates, and went straight to the KTV room.
In the private room, Yamauchi stood aside timidly and stiffly, watching Sakayanagi sitting on the sofa, leisurely drinking coffee that should not be seen in a KTV. The cane that he never left stood quietly beside Sakayanagi, and Kamuro was also sitting on the sofa, but the moment he saw Yamauchi, there was a look of disdain and trash in his eyes.
Although Yamauchi had been there for a long time, Sakayanagi was holding her cup of coffee, staring at the blank video player in front of her as if in a daze. After a long time, she slowly put down the coffee cup in her hand and smiled as if she had just noticed Yamauchi's arrival.
"Are you here? Why don't you sit down?"
Yamauchi shook his head hurriedly and stood there as if he was afraid, but soon he couldn't help but speak out his worries.
"I have already won over the class just as you said. Currently, more than half of them have agreed to vote black for Ayanokouji. Can you really protect me? Can you get Class A's red votes to vote for me?"
Upon hearing this, Sakayanagi just looked at Yamauchi indifferently, and only when Yamauchi felt scared did she smile a little.
"What? Do you think I don't keep my word, or do you think you are worth using? I'm giving you this suggestion for your own good. Otherwise, you'll be more likely to drop out, right? After all, according to the situation in the class, you're a bigger drag than Ayanokouji."
"No... I don't dare... I just want to confirm..."
A playful smile appeared on Sakayanagi's face.
"Don't worry. If I'm not mistaken, there will definitely be a commotion in your Class C tomorrow. You have to learn how to shirk responsibility. I guess you can win over the hearts of the class so quickly, not because of your own strength, right?"
Although Yamauchi was surprised, he did not dare to hide anything.
"Yes... yes, I asked someone else for help. She has a wide network of contacts in the class."
"Ah..."
Sakayanagi let out an ambiguous laugh.
"That's enough. You've done very well. If you want to stay in this school, you must try to shift the blame for tomorrow's disturbance as much as possible. Don't admit it no matter what. Let the people in the class be suspicious of each other, and be firm in your own thinking that voting Ayanokouji out is the best outcome. Don't worry, although the votes may be affected, I will let Class A vote for you. You will be fine."
Sakayanagi is like a devil behind the scenes, directly instructing Yamauchi on how to act. At this time, Yamauchi has already lost himself in his heart, and he can only obey orders in panic.
"Okay...Okay...I know what to do."
"Remember, this is all about keeping you from dropping out of school. This is something that's very much about you."
"I see."
Yamauchi hugged the schoolbag tightly in his hands, and his hands unconsciously tightened.
"Okay, if you're fine, go back and rest. If you stay here too long, there will be problems."
Having said what needed to be said, Sakayanagi issued an expulsion order.
Yamauchi didn't dare to say anything more and left the room directly.
Seeing Yamauchi leave, Kamuro couldn't help but speak.
"Sakayanagi, what do you mean? Are you trying to frame Kiyotaka?"
Sakayanagi looked at Kamuro and smiled with an ambiguous look.
"What do you think...?"
Chapter 229: Horikita Manabu's Praise
Kamuro felt inexplicably angry at Sakayanagi's ambiguous statement.
She stood up and glared at Sakayanagi, her tone full of determination.
"I don't know what you are thinking, and I don't have as many thoughts as you do, but if you really want to frame Qinglong, then I will definitely turn against you!"
Sakayanagi looked at Xiqi and Kamuro who were glaring at her with amusement, and her handsome chin slightly raised.
"You don't trust the Qinglong you like? Or do you think I would have the heart to send him away without defeating him myself?"
Sakayanagi's question made Kamuro freeze in place.
"Then...why did you even do that?"
Sakayanagi smiled softly, picked up her cane and stood up, then reached out her hand and gently stroked Kamuro's face, brushing away her frown.
"Don't underestimate Qing Long. Many things are not that simple. The man I like is far more mysterious and interesting than you can see. Maybe he has discovered some problems by now. What do you think?"
Kamuro sighed unhappily.
"That's why I hate being friends with smart people like you. Your head is about to explode but you still can't figure out what's going on."
Sakayanagi giggled twice and started to walk out with her crutches.
"It's okay, the fun has just begun."
----
Meanwhile, on the way home from school.
Horikita Manabu looked at the figure in front of him who just stood there quietly.
"It's rare that you would take the initiative to come to me..."
Standing opposite Horikita Manabu was Horikita Suzune. Her face was no longer as flustered as usual when she saw her brother. Instead, she looked a little calmer.
Looking at the expression on his sister's face who was standing opposite him, Horikita Manabu also smiled in surprise.
"You've changed, Lingyin."
This unexpected compliment left Horikita Suzune stunned. She could hardly believe her ears.
After all, this seemed to be the only time that my brother had ever praised me since I was a child.
"It seems that person has had a great positive impact on you. I am very pleased to see your growth."
"Have I...grown up?"
Lingyin asked herself.
I have always been following in my brother's footsteps, hoping that one day I can come into his sight and receive his praise.
But when that day finally arrived, she was surprisingly calm.
Even Qinglong's figure appeared in her mind.
This made her a little dazed. Unconsciously, her dream of following in her brother's footsteps had been quietly squeezed out by Qinglong, and her heart was filled with only Qinglong.
Horikita Manabu didn't care about Suzune's absent-mindedness.
He just smiled faintly.
"It seems that you really like Ayanokouji, and it has even surpassed your previous stubbornness."
Lingyin showed a rare bit of shyness.
"Brother, have you met with Qinglong in the past two days?"
Horikita Manabu nodded.
"Yes, yesterday."
"Did he ask you to do anything?"
Upon learning that her brother had met Kiyotaka, Suzune immediately asked anxiously.
This made Horikita Manabu frown slightly.
"Nothing, what's the problem?"
Lingyin hesitated for a moment before finally expressing her inner guess.
