There is something wrong with Hikigaya's classroom of supreme ability

Teacher Shizuka had already spotted Hikigaya from a distance. After all, those dead fish eyes were like the brightest star in the night sky. Shizuka Hiratsuka could always spot her student at a glance. Before Hikigaya could even say hello, Teacher Shizuka grabbed his arm and dragged him into the ramen shop.

Not long after, two large bowls of steaming hot tonkotsu ramen were served.

"I'm gonna start now!"

Then Teacher Jing rolled up her sleeves and started eating with big mouthfuls. She really looked like she had been hungry for a long time. Seeing this, Hikigaya also felt a little hungry.

“Phew~ So cool!”

In the blink of an eye, a bowl of tonkotsu ramen was completely finished, and Hikigaya had only eaten less than half of it.

"Boss, another bowl of soy sauce ramen, some more seaweed and pickled radish, and a glass of fresh beer!"

"Okay!"

Teacher Jing waved his hand, and his heroic look made the middle-aged boss laugh. Several customers in the store were also amazed at Teacher Jing's "masculinity".

"I said, eating too much at night is not good for your health."

Hikigaya couldn't help but speak.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm in good health."

As soon as he finished speaking, Teacher Jing drank half a glass of beer in one breath, which made Hikigaya's eyes twitch.

"What I mean is... aren't you afraid of getting fat?"

For most women, in order to maintain their figure, they usually eat very little or even nothing for dinner. This trend has gradually affected female high school students, so it is common to see girls eating very little for dinner, or even not eating at all.

Teacher Jing is the complete opposite. She is even ranked number one on the list of things women would never do: "eating ramen alone." But Teacher Jing loves it and is even particularly fond of late-night ramen. In her words, late-night ramen is where the soul lies!

"After eating, I need to exercise to digest the calories. Oh, I didn't hear you clearly just now. Could Hikigaya say it again?"

Teacher Jing moved her shoulders and neck, making a terrible "crackling, crackling" sound.

"Ha...hahaha, I mean this ramen is pretty good."

Hikigaya quickly picked up a glass of water and spoke vaguely.

In fact, this is not the first time that Teacher Jing has taken Hikigaya out to eat ramen. There is always such a thing at least once every two weeks. Sometimes they come to this ramen restaurant, and sometimes they go to a late-night barbecue restaurant. If it happens to be the weekend, Teacher Jing will also take Hikigaya and Haruno to play mahjong!

By the way, on the third floor of that nameless teahouse, each private room is equipped with a Dayang Chemical eight-piece mahjong machine.

This is also the only multi-person entertainment activity in Hikigaya besides watching anime.

"I heard that you and Haruno recently joined the student council. How's that going?"

Teacher Jing asked casually.

"not so good."

Hikigaya deadpanned, "Because that woman pushed all the work onto me, I almost thought I was the only first-year student council member."

"That's really Haruno's style. After all, those who are capable get more work done. Hikigaya, you've worked hard."

Teacher Jing reached out and ruffled the boy's hair, trying to comfort him while suppressing a smile.

Hikigaya curled his lips, he was just complaining a few words.

Afterwards, Teacher Jing chatted with Hikigaya about other trivial matters, and also talked about things outside the school. As a teacher, he was able to enter and exit the artificial island and contact the outside world, but any information about the school was still strictly prohibited. However, there were no special restrictions on some irrelevant information.

After all, in this information age, it is impossible for schools to completely disconnect students from the outside world and society. Similar to the intranet of a company, students can browse the Internet and obtain information from the outside world, but they are also monitored and strictly filtered by the school at all times. It is like a sealed glass curtain wall. People inside the wall can see things from the outside world, but people outside the wall cannot know anything about what is inside the wall.

Teacher Shizuka naturally would not do anything that violates school rules. She simply told Hikigaya about Komachi's current situation, and that was all.

But this little piece of news was enough to make Hikigaya happy for a long time.

Speaking of which, in the first month, the relationship between Hikigaya and Teacher Shizuka was quite subtle. In class, they just had a normal student relationship, and they rarely had contact or met in private. After all, the school rules were there.

Having said that, Teacher Jing would still call for a talk under various pretexts, such as the homework was too sloppy or someone was needed to clean the office. Her purpose was nothing else but to find someone who could listen to her complaints!

Yes, in the first month of school, the poor classroom discipline in Class D was almost unbearable for the original teacher Jing. If it were not for the school regulations, those guys in Class D would probably have been torn to pieces by the muscular female teacher in front of him. So every time in Teacher Jing's Chinese class, Hikigaya was always nervous.

If I can't handle these guys, can I handle Hikigaya?

Hikigaya could always read such a terrifying expression on Teacher Shizuka's face!

Fortunately, since the school announced the truth, the classroom discipline of Class D has gradually improved, and Hikigaya finally no longer has to live in fear.

And occasionally, like tonight, I can have ramen with Teacher Jing in private.

The boy with dead eyes glanced at Teacher Jing who was shouting "Another drink" and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Chapter 64: The Power of Shadow.

After coming out of the ramen restaurant, Hikigaya reminded Teacher Jing a few words to be careful, and then the teacher despised him, saying "You are just a high school student, but you nag me like your own mother."

Teacher Jing swung out two punches that seemed to cut through the air, snorted softly and said, "Haha, the ones who should pay attention to safety are those blind guys!"

Well... Hikigaya admitted that he was worrying too much, and since Teacher Jing was currently living in the teachers' dormitory, there was no need to worry.

After parting with Teacher Jing, it was already around 10: in the evening. Before he knew it, Hikigaya and Teacher Jing had been chatting for almost an hour and a half.

The temperature in Tokyo is slightly lower in May, and the night is as cool as water. Walking on the deserted school road, you can still feel the obvious chill.

Looking back now, it turns out that more than a month has passed unknowingly. Hikigaya has gradually become accustomed to this closed campus life, and even his aversion to this school has decreased a little. However, he still cannot agree with the school's principle of "strength first" from the bottom of his heart.

Hikigaya looked up at the dim night sky. The moon was blocked by thick clouds, and the night seemed especially dark, as if even the street lights on the school road had dimmed a little.

Today, Teacher Shizuka asked him to eat ramen and chat with her. She seemed very willful and unreasonable, but Hikigaya knew very well that Teacher Shizuka was caring about his condition in this way. Perhaps in her heart, she has always been worried about her mental state. After all, she is still suffering from the mental illness of "puberty syndrome"!

"Alas, I don't know what will happen in the next three years."

What happened in the library today is just a microcosm, a beginning. As time goes by, the competition between classes will become more and more intense. At the same time, as the gap between everyone's abilities becomes apparent, conflicts and divisions within the class are bound to emerge.

Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest!

Hikigaya could already foresee all the intrigues and deceptions that might take place in the next three years. Even if he was unwilling, he would be slowly assimilated and changed by this environment.

On the way back to the dormitory, Hikigaya felt a little thirsty, so he turned around and took a detour to buy a can of drink. However, when he was almost at the dormitory, Hikigaya unexpectedly saw a familiar figure.

"President?"

Horikita Manabu? Why was he near the first-year dormitory so late at night?

Although the dormitory buildings for the three grades are in the same area, they are actually quite far apart and separated by a lot of vegetation. Unless intentionally, students from different grades will basically not bump into each other.

Hikigaya thought about it and decided not to meddle in other people's business. However, after he had taken a few steps, another figure appeared in Hikigaya's sight and he couldn't help but stop.

Iceberg girl?

Unfortunately, Hikigaya's attention was not on Horikita, but on the man who was following Horikita stealthily!

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka!

Hikigaya narrowed his eyes and pondered the scene before him. If it was just a meeting between Horikita and his sister, Hikigaya might not interfere. But now it was obvious that there was an Ayanokouji who seemed to have 'ulterior motives'. Maybe things were not that simple?

The dim night became Hikigaya's best protective color, and coupled with his own 'Aura Blocking B', no one noticed the existence of this dead-eyed oriole.

In the alley behind the dormitory building, Horikita Manabu and Horikita Suzune seemed to be talking about something.

"Lingyin, it's been a long time, almost three years. I didn't expect you to follow me to this school."

"I am no longer the useless me that my brother knew. In order to catch up with him, I came to this school."

"Class D is the class you're in now, right? You're just like you were three years ago, always following me. You haven't changed at all! And you haven't noticed your own shortcomings yet? You shouldn't have chosen this school, Suzune."

"I will work hard to get into Class A and prove it to you, brother..."

"Impossible, you have no talent that can reach Class A."

The quarrel between the brother and sister seemed to be getting more and more intense, and Horikita Manabu even attacked his sister. Hikigaya wanted to step forward to stop them, but Ayanokouji who was hiding in the dark suddenly made a move. Then Ayanokouji and Horikita Manabu started fighting on the path. As for Horikita Manabu, she collapsed in the corner of the wall with lifeless eyes.

Shouldn't you shout 'Stop fighting, you two' at this point?

Outsiders who didn't know the situation would think that the two men were fighting over a woman. But to be honest, Horikita usually had a cold look on her face, and this was the first time Hikigaya had seen her look so weak.

How should I put it, the contrast was so great that Hikigaya had the illusion that 'this woman might be broken'?

Both Horikita Manabu and Ayanokouji seemed to have practiced sports like karate and boxing. They did not fight like ordinary people without any rules. Instead, they tested each other. The next second, they both attacked at the same time, punching and kicking. Both sides countered each other's moves, but overall it seemed that Horikita Manabu had the upper hand, while Ayanokouji was on the passive defense.

Although Hikigaya didn't know how to fight, his observation ability was always very sharp. Although Ayanokouji was passively defending and seemed to be at a disadvantage, his breathing and footwork were not disordered at all. He also predicted Horikita Manabu's moves many times in advance, but did not choose to attack. Hikigaya was very sure that Ayanokouji was still "hiding his strength".

How many otherworldly toilet paper novels must Ayanokouji have read to truly enjoy playing the pig and eating the tiger? A powerful shadow master, a shadow dragon who defies the heavens, right?

"Your movements and stances are quite good. You're the first person in this school who can dodge my attacks continuously. It seems you've learned some martial arts."

Horikita Manabu finally stopped attacking, pushed up his glasses, and asked.

"Sorry, no. If I had to say what I learned, it would probably be piano and calligraphy. I even won the national piano competition when I was little."

"Are you also a student in Class D? Suzune, it seems your class has quite a few special talents."

Horikita Manabu turned and looked at his sister.

For some reason, the image of Hikigaya flashed through Horikita Suzune's mind. Was he the person her brother was talking about?

"How long will those people over there hide?"

Suddenly, Ayanokouji looked towards a dark corner not far away. Hikigaya saw that he was discovered and simply walked out. At the same time, he was secretly shocked by Ayanokouji's insight.

When they saw Hikigaya coming out from the darkness, the three people present all looked surprised.

Chapter 65: Interest is a double-edged sword.

"Hey, good evening."

Hikigaya greeted the three of them, then looked at Ayanokouji and exclaimed, "I didn't expect Ayanokouji-kun to be so amazing. Just the effortless look he showed just now is far superior to Explosive Boy."

"Explosive Boy?"

Horikita Suzune was puzzled.

"Sorry, I spoke too quickly. It was Sudo who was trying to use violence against you in the library today. He has a hot temper and is like a barrel of explosives that can explode at any moment."

Hikigaya explained sheepishly.

Horikita Manabu on the side frowned slightly, and a gleam of light flashed in his sharp eyes.

"I just happened to be passing by, and I'm not as powerful as you think, Hikigaya."

Ayanokouji on the side explained.

His face still had a blank expression, but in his heart Ayanokouji was already thinking about how to remove himself from this matter.

"No, no, no, Ayanokouji, there's no point in pretending any longer. Words may be deceiving, but what you see with your eyes can never lie, right?"

Hikigaya is not as easy to fool as Horikita.

"No, even the eyes can be deceived."

"So, Ayanokouji, you were lying just now?"

"I……"

Ayanokouji suddenly paused, realizing he'd been almost tricked by Hikigaya. "What I meant was, what you just saw isn't necessarily true. I just happened to be passing by. I do exercise regularly, and I've learned tea ceremony and piano. That's all."

Ayanokouji once again repeated what he had said before.

"Tea ceremony? I think you were talking about calligraphy?"

Hikigaya showed a subtle expression.

Hey, the little black guy has shown his chicken feet!

“…Actually, I’ve also learned calligraphy.”

"Can you tell me where I can take calligraphy or piano classes to learn these awesome martial arts? I'd also like my sister to enroll in a class to improve her skills."

"Sorry, it's been closed for many years, and I happen to be the last student."

Ayanokouji said this with a normal expression, and subconsciously added in his heart that this was the truth.

"So I misunderstood? Actually, Ayanokouji, you're a complete noob. So weak that you can tie with the student council president, who holds a fifth-degree degree in karate and a fourth-degree degree in aikido, just based on your physical prowess? If that's the case, my suggestion is that you join our class's Big Shark, Little Phelps, and compete in the Olympics."

Hikigaya looked at Ayanokouji with an expression that said "Do you take me for a fool?" Horikita beside him also had a subtle expression on her face, but Ayanokouji remained expressionless. No matter what Hikigaya said, he insisted on the fact that he was a "rookie".

"Ayanokouji?"

Horikita Manabu, who had been silent until then, suddenly spoke up: "Speaking of which, there was a very special score in this year's first-year entrance exam. All subjects scored 50 points. If I remember correctly, that student's name seemed to be Ayanokouji."
