Horikita looked confused, and at the same time she realized that Hikigaya was so close to her, and it seemed that he was gently supporting her body?

"Horikita-san, you look so pale! If Hikigaya-kun hadn't reacted quickly just now, you would have almost fallen down!"

Kushida's voice came from the side. It was clearly words of concern, but for some reason, it sounded like a strong sense of dissatisfaction to Horikita.

"I……"

Horikita was slightly stunned when she heard this. Just now, she only felt a burst of coldness in her body, and when she came to her senses, she was already like this. What's worse is that after waking up, the coldness of her body became more obvious and severe.

"I noticed something wasn't right with you on the cruise ship. It turns out there's something wrong with your body."

Hearing Hikigaya's "complaints", Horikita subconsciously wanted to open her mouth to refute, but the strange feeling in her body made her feel trembling even when she opened her mouth. And maybe because her body was cold, Horikita was particularly sensitive to the touch of her body at this time.

Even though there was a layer of sportswear between them, she could still clearly feel the warmth from Hikigaya's palm, and... the goose bumps on her own skin. At the same time, the scent of the opposite sex coming from Hikigaya was particularly clear, making Horikita's cheeks hot and her head start to feel a little dizzy.

"Anyway, let's go back to the camp first. There's a medical kit there."

Kushida quickly stepped forward to support Horikita, and said to Hikigaya: "Hikigaya-kun, let me do it, you can let go now!"

Hikigaya knew that it was not very convenient for him as a boy, so he let go of his hand, but the next second Horikita grabbed the corner of Hikigaya's clothes, as if he was unwilling to let go.

Hikigaya: "..."

Kushida: "!!!"

In fact, Horikita was also a little confused and didn't know what she was doing. She just subconsciously wanted to catch that trace of warmth.

In the end, it was Kushida's 'tough' intervention that brought Horikita back to the camp. Hirata was delighted when he learned that the contract was established, but he soon noticed that Horikita seemed to be in a bad state.

"I'll get you some medicine."

Hikigaya was about to go to the medicine box to get medicine. Horikita heard this and quickly said, "Don't, don't waste points. We don't have many points left. I, I just feel a little uncomfortable. I just need to rest."

Hikigaya frowned. "Why are you still holding on despite this?" Then he couldn't help but scold, "Horikita, I know you don't want to trouble others, and you don't want your points to be reduced because of your own affairs, but don't forget that this class isn't just yours, nor is it anyone else's."

Hikigaya paused before continuing, "I redeemed the first aid kit a while ago and spent the points."

171

Chapter 171 Different small groups.

After Horikita learned that a medicine kit cost 15 points, she almost wanted to get up and find Chabashira-sensei to return it. 15 points converted into food would be enough for the entire class to consume for about a day!

However, Horikita finally took the medicine, and the thermometer also showed that Horikita had a low fever, so she was unwillingly "forced" to stay in the tent to rest.

"Actually, something happened when you went to negotiate with Class B."

At this time, Hirata sighed.

When Hikigaya and others went to Class B, Kouenji claimed to be unwell and withdrew from the exam and returned to the cruise ship. Because of this incident, Class D was deducted 30 points. In addition to the transaction with Class B, Class D now only has 170 points available.

After hearing the news, Horikita, who had just laid down, immediately stood up again, looking furious.

Although Kouenji claimed that he was not feeling well, everyone in Class D knew that Kouenji had deliberately withdrawn from the exam. After all, everyone saw this guy as strong as a gorilla in the last second, and even ran to swim in the sea, and then the next second he said he was not feeling well. Isn't this simply because he didn't want to suffer in the wild!

"No wonder everyone looked unhappy when I came back just now. So this is the reason."

Kushida smiled wryly.

The fact that Koenji withdrew from the exam was indeed a blow to everyone in Class D, and they were most afraid that a second 'Koenji' would appear. Hirata was also worried about this situation, so he and Kushida hurried to calm everyone down.

However, just as the matter of Koenji withdrawing from the exam was settled, another unexpected incident happened. Ayanokouji, Yamauchi and others came back from outside with a girl with short blue hair.

"Ibuki?"

Hikigaya naturally knew the girl following Ayanokouji and the others, Ibuki Mio from Class C, and also the only girl in Ryuuen's small group!

However, the opponent looked a little disheveled, and his face was red and swollen as if he had been beaten by someone. Later, Hirata, Kushida and others asked the reason. According to Ibuki himself, he had a conflict with a man in the class, and was beaten up and thrown out by the other party. He was found alone in the forest by Yamauchi, Ayanokouji and others, and was finally brought back to the camp at the strong request of the good man Yamauchi.

Well, after hearing this, Hikigaya didn't know where to start complaining. He didn't have much contact with Ibuki, but his impression of her was mostly that of a very prickly and spirited girl. To put it simply, she was the type who was fearless. So when did this spirited girl become so docile?

Moreover, the man the other party was talking about was probably only Long Yuan, and the whole thing also sounded suspicious.

But both Hirata and the others believed it. In Hirata's words, people in need should be helped. Moreover, the sun was about to set, and a girl like Ibuki could not be left alone in the forest at night.

Hirata's actions once again won the praise of many girls. Although Shinohara and others did not want to take in this guy from Class C who might be a "spy", it did not affect their "love brain" for Hirata.

But to be honest, it would be strange if a boy with Hirata's character and temperament, who is so Asian, did not attract girls.

Hikigaya has been in Class D for several months. The longer he stays, the more he realizes that everyone in the class is a "thorn in the side", but some are not as obvious as Sudo at the beginning. Many people are "soft thorns". For example, many times when boys and girls quarrel, or when there are various frictions and conflicts between girls, it is often up to Hirata to mediate.

If it weren't for Hirata as a lubricant, Class D would have probably become like the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

The various small groups within the class can be seen from the evening meal, because this is a class group exam, and it is rare that everyone has to gather together for dinner. The easiest way to see this situation is to see the various small groups in the class.

The boys' side naturally consists of the idiot group including Ike, Yamauchi, Sudo and Ayanokouji, followed by students like Yukimura who are usually taciturn and follow the rules. The rest are scattered students who are alone. The overall look is rather disorganized, and Hikigaya is naturally one of them.

The girls' side is more interesting. There is the 'Empress' team headed by Karuizawa, Kushida's good friends, and Shinohara's arrogant team. The only girls left alone are Horikita, Sakura, and a girl with long blue hair, probably named Hasebe.

From this look, we can find that the girls' group has been divided into three forces. However, because of Hirata, Karuizawa is naturally superior to the others, so we can see that Karuizawa and others occupy the best positions, followed by Shinohara, Kushida, and finally Bo, the lone girl who was excluded from the outside.

"Hikigaya-kun, can I sit here?"

At this time, Hirata walked up to Hikigaya with a lunch box. Hikigaya then looked in the direction of the girls' group and found that many girls' eyes were on Hikigaya... No way!

To be more precise, it was Hirata's body. Hikigaya probably knew what was going on and nodded.

"Great."

Hirata couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After seeing Hirata sitting next to Hikigaya, the girls in the distance all turned their gazes away.

"Hirata, you are so popular, just like Tang Monk's meat."

"Stop teasing me."

Hirata smiled bitterly.

Hikigaya shook his head. They all had girlfriends, but Hirata was still so popular. Is it true that what you can't get is the best?

But strangely enough, it's no secret that Hirata and Karuizawa are boyfriend and girlfriend, but surprisingly, they are rarely seen together. Even in class, the way they interact doesn't seem like a romantic relationship. They look like ordinary classmates.

Are you shy and afraid of being gossiped about?

Hikigaya had never been in a relationship, so he didn't understand what was going on. He always felt that the two of them were clearly lovers, but they didn't give the impression of being in a relationship at all.

After dinner, many people felt very tired. After all, they had to get up early in the morning to gather, and then they had been busy with special exams from noon until now. Most students felt that today was so "fulfilling".

Nights spent surviving in the wild were always boring, especially for Class D, which didn't have much "unity" to begin with. In order to save points, there were no entertainment activities at all, and soon everyone started to rest early.

The next morning, Hikigaya opened his eyes very early. This was a long-standing biological clock habit, but more importantly, it was due to the snoring and grinding of the boys around him... and the sour smell that came from time to time.

After all, it’s August in the summer, and coupled with the sweat from yesterday’s work, the taste is comparable to some old-style pickled cabbage.

Just as Hikigaya was about to wash his face, his eyes suddenly looked towards the girls' tent not far away. Although that was not where the girls slept, there were a lot of luggage piled there, or to be more precise, basic living supplies for exchange. A boy was secretly picking up one of the backpacks of a different color.

If I remember correctly, the backpack with a different color should be Ibuki's?

172

Chapter 172: The Country Girl.

Ayanokouji is rummaging through Ibuki's backpack again?

Hikigaya recognized the boy's back at a glance, but why did he rummage through Ibuki's backpack?

If he remembered correctly, Ibuki was the one brought back by Ayanokouji and Yamauchi. After thinking about it, Hikigaya had no intention of alerting the enemy, so he retreated into the tent. However, the pungent smell inside made Hikigaya give up the idea immediately the next second, and he happened to run into Hirata who had just gotten up.

"Hikigaya-san, you're up really early."

Hirata subconsciously greeted Hikigaya, who nodded. Then when he looked towards the girls' tent again, it was empty. It seemed that the noise here had alarmed Ayanokouji.

But to be honest, aren't Ayanokouji's actions too fast?

Then the students in Class D got up one after another, and Hirata began to assign tasks to everyone. Some went out to pick up branches that could be used to make fire, and some went to look for possible bases or food such as wild fruits.

Today, Horikita looked much better than yesterday. Even though Hirata persuaded her to rest for a while longer, the stubborn girl refused decisively and said that she was already much better. Of course, the more important thing was to refresh and occupy the stronghold.

The 'leader' holding the key card for Class D wasn't Hirata, nor his girlfriend Karuizawa, nor any of the more prominent students like Kushida, but rather that stubborn little Horikita. This was what Hirata had told him privately yesterday.

That's why Horikita was so against the fact that she was 'sick' yesterday. Not only was there a risk of being forced to withdraw from the exam and losing 30 points, but more importantly, she had the responsibility of a 'leader' on her shoulders!

The base of the D class camp, plus the three bases discovered by the D class students yesterday, there are a total of 4 bases. In order to cooperate with the refresh time, Horikita and others have to go to the base immediately.

After the routine roll call in the morning, the students who were assigned tasks began to act. Hikigaya was assigned to go out for exploration. Although it was called exploration, it actually had a high degree of freedom and was a task that was very suitable for taking advantage of the situation.

This was probably what Hirata did on purpose, but Hikigaya wouldn't be so foolish as to spread the news everywhere since he had gotten the advantage. As for the girls who were usually alone, like Sakura and Hasebe, they were assigned tasks in the camp, which was considered to be a good way to take care of these students who were alone.

However, during this period, several students from Class C came to investigate the situation. However, rather than investigating, these people seemed more like deliberate provocations, and they were all "old acquaintances" of Hikigaya, Komiya, Kondo, and Ishizaki.

The three of them found Ibuki and it seemed that there had been some quarrel and conflict. It seemed that Ibuki had indeed had a conflict with a student in his class. In the end, Hirata stepped in and the three of them left in disappointment.

Everyone in Class D saw this scene clearly. Originally, many students suspected that Ibuki might be a spy, but after this incident, everyone's vigilance towards Ibuki was lowered a lot.

Hikigaya watched coldly, not knowing whether it was because Ibuki, Ishizaki and the others were too good at acting, or because the students in Class D were too easy to fool, but Hikigaya became more and more certain that this was part of Ryuuen's plan.

After this episode, everyone started to take action to complete their respective tasks.

Hikigaya first went to the beach house, where the words "Class A" were still displayed. At the same time, he looked inside the house and found that the supplies inside were gone. It seemed that they had all been moved away by the students of Class A.

Hikigaya nodded in satisfaction, then thought of Ibuki, and decided to go see what Class C, or what Ryuuen was up to.

According to Ibuki, Ryuuen and his men were stationed on the beach, so when Hikigaya arrived at the beach, he found that the stationing Ibuki mentioned was not what he meant by understanding, but more like a beach party!

From temporary shower rooms, parasols, barbecue sets, to various snacks and iced drinks, as well as many Class C students enjoying the surfing service provided by the school at the beach!

It seems that Class C has no intention of saving points at all, and instead spends all of them on enjoying themselves!

At this time, some students from Class C had already discovered Hikigaya. After receiving the report, Ryuuen just looked at Hikigaya with contempt, as if he was deliberately provoking him. Then he put on his sunglasses, enjoyed the sunshine and the beach, and ignored Hikigaya.

"Hikigaya-kun!"

At this moment, a voice full of surprise came from not far away. It turned out to be Rihe. The originally quiet and bookish girl was now wearing a sun-proof semi-transparent jacket, a light-colored swimsuit skirt, a straw hat on her head, and a pair of snow-white thighs and small feet stepping on the soft sand. She looked extra sunny and lively, which was a bright spot for the eyes.

Hikigaya was stunned for a moment.

"Have you seen enough?"

Hiyori's face flushed slightly, and the girl's angry voice suddenly woke Hikigaya up.

"I, I just didn't recognize it for a moment."

Hikigaya quickly explained: "After all, the way you are now, Hiyori, is really different from what I remembered!"

"Could it be that in Hikigaya-kun's mind, I am just a nerd who always carries a thick book and wears old-fashioned clothes?!"

Hiyori pretended to be angry.

"Bad, almost the same, right?"

Hikigaya rubbed his head.

"!!!"

Hiyori's eyes widened involuntarily. "Hikigaya-kun, how could you do this? Even if you think so, you can't say it in front of a girl!"

"But I always thought that Hiyori looked best in that outfit she wore in the library."

Hikigaya said sincerely: "That literary girl who was engrossed in reading a book, this is the most profound impression I have of you, Hiyori."

"What, what!"

Hiyori's face suddenly turned red, and even her neck began to turn a little red.

"I'm just speaking the truth. I really don't mean to offend you. And you look really good in this outfit, Hiyori. This is the first time I've seen you look so cool."

After the literary girl took off her monotonous clothes, her gentle temperament was more prominent.

For some reason, Hiyori didn't feel much at first, but after hearing what Hikigaya said, a feeling of shame suddenly surged in her heart, so she couldn't help but tighten her shirt slightly.

"Hikigaya-kun, do you want something to eat? I'll get it for you!"

Hiyori quickly changed the subject.

But at this moment, a disappointing voice was heard.

"Shiina, I'm sorry, but Ryuuen-kun has ordered that you are not allowed to get too close to Hikigaya right now."

Ishizaki and the muscular Albert stopped Hiyori behind them, and warned Hikigaya fiercely.
