The Great Teacher's Skill-First Classroom

Kushida knew a long time ago that Sakayanagi liked Hikigaya Hachiman.

At that time, Kushida was laughing at Sakayanagi in his heart, thinking that Sakayanagi would definitely fail.

but now.

But I don’t have that much confidence anymore.

Because there is still a 1% chance that she will discover the horrible reality that the clown is actually herself.

"It seems he hasn't confessed yet." Yukino, who had been keeping quiet, said, "Since you're asking now, it hasn't happened yet."

"So if you want to stop her, it's still possible," Yukino suggested. "Stop Sakayanagi-senpai from saying it. I think Hikigaya-senpai is the type of person who knows everything, but if you don't say it, he won't do anything about it."

Yukino is a very decisive person.

I don't like ambiguous attitudes.

If bullied, fight back like a proud but powerful lone wolf.

Now that Amasawa-san and Kushida-senpai are worried about this, the best solution is to prevent Sakayanagi-san from confessing his feelings.

just.

"Yukinoshita-san's suggestion is a solution," said Amasawa-san. "But I don't recommend it, because it's better to comb than to block."

In other words, although Arisu Sakayanagi has been stopped now, it is impossible to prevent him forever.

So it would be better to let Sakayanagi-senpai suffer a heartbreak once and for all. This would directly solve the subsequent troubles.

“…” Kushida.

If possible, then she would like to choose the plan proposed by Yukinoshita-kun to prevent Sakayanagi from confessing her feelings.

And she can also perform some operations.

In fact, Kushida-san also thought so in his heart. In fact, there is a plan, which is to trick Sakayanagi into confessing his feelings until graduation or even college.

So by that time, Hikigaya would have already married her.

So whether Sakayanagi confessed her feelings at that time was not worth mentioning.

However, this method is too crude, and Kushida feels that he is not at the level to do it yet.

and.

And why should I worry?

What Horikita just conveyed was that Hikigaya would still refuse, so Hikigaya could only say that he had feelings for Arisu Sakayanagi, but would not accept them.

Isn't this the situation I've been experiencing all the time?

Hikigaya also has the options of junior Amasawa and Ichinose, so she is not the only one.

Thinking of this, Kushida-san seemed to feel a little more at ease.

And the other side.

Hikigaya-kun stayed in the dessert shop and watched the clerk's operations for 30 minutes.

However, Sakayanagi-san seemed to be very patient, so she stayed.

Finally, Yawata registered his information on the store clerk's registration form and ordered the raw materials and utensils for making chocolates during Valentine's Day.

And Sakayanagi-san did the same thing.

It looks like everything is done in an orderly manner and looks very serious.

just.

"Yamamura-kun, could you please take the things back for me?" Sakayanagi bought a small cake.

"Huh? Yes, of course." Shancun did not refuse.

When Hachiman was considering leaving the store, Sakayanagi called him.

"Hikigaya-kun, can you come back to the dorm with me?"

"The only way back to the dormitory is the one I want to walk with you," Sakayanagi said.

Are you coming?

The phone in Hachiman's pocket hadn't vibrated yet, indicating that even after asking Karuizawa for help, he hadn't received a response.

But he was clear.

There's no such thing as a non-harmful rejection method. The only solution is to keep the other person from saying it. As long as they don't say it, there's no choice. It's like when Ichinose-san was confessed to by Shiranami-san. All that was needed was to keep Shiranami from saying it.

But Sakayanagi is different.

Sakayanagi wanted to say it out loud. And she felt that rejecting Sakayanagi by rejecting Shiranami-san was a bit excessive.

and so.

Sakayanagi-san, are you sure you want to do this?

Do you want to ruin their relationship?

because.

Once you take that step, once you say it, whether you reject or accept it, you can't go back to the original relationship.

Because once you say it, once you succeed, you will naturally enter into another relationship.

Once the relationship fails, even if they can still be friends, there is no going back. For boys, they will realize that this is a girl who likes them, but for girls, it is difficult to immediately dislike someone. Therefore, the emotions of both parties may become sensitive.

Of course, if one is a heartless person, then they can naturally not care. It's just a pity that Hachiman can't do that.

At this moment, Hikigaya-kun nodded casually.

But I was not at peace at all. I even felt that maybe I should not study medicine in the future, but literature instead.

And if I want to write, I would write a light novel called "My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, As I Expected", because a big problem has arisen now.

However, even though he was thinking in his heart, Hikigaya-san still managed to keep a calm face.

He then started walking towards the dormitory with Sakayanagi.

Along the way, neither of them spoke, only the sound of footsteps. Perhaps because of the weather, every corner of the school was covered with silvery white snowflakes.

But everyone had a snowball fight on the school trip, so no one is playing now.

just.

Perhaps because of the snow, walking became difficult, and Sakayanagi's pace also became slower.

"It's really cold at this time of year." Sakayanagi broke the silence and spoke proactively.

Just as Hachiman was about to respond, he heard her speak quickly again.

"But I'm really sorry that I walk so slowly." She seemed a little apologetic.

As for his physical shortcomings, Hikigaya-san never blamed himself.

After all, Sakayanagi's body is there. It's better to say that even though she has defects that are different from ordinary people, Sakayanagi can still spend every day calmly and confidently, which is really amazing.

"I don't think the physical issues are anything to apologize for," Hachiman said. "And I wasn't delayed at all."

"Hikigaya-kun, do you treat everyone the same?" Sakayanagi asked.

"No, I probably can't do that." Hikigaya-kun shook his head. "Among the people I know who can do that, it seems that Kushida-san is the only one."

Hachiman tried to mention Kushida-san's name.

A long time ago, Kushida was almost expelled from school because of Sakayanagi's frame-up. Even though he stayed in school, Kushida was attracted by the secrets thrown out by Sakayanagi and became friends with Sakayanagi.

During this time, Sakayanagi should have learned from Kushida that he and Kushida were dating. With Sakayanagi's intelligence, he should have understood what he meant.

He already has a girlfriend, so even if she said it, he would choose to refuse.

just.

"That's right." Sakayanagi's expression didn't change. "Kushida-san is indeed a unique person."

Does that mean this move is useless?

Sakayanagi Arisu remained indifferent.

Hikigaya thought to himself and began to echo Sakayanagi's conversation.

"Come to think of it, last year I thought snow was a rarity, but it's snowed for two years in a row," Hachiman said.

"If it snowed all year round, it would be quite troublesome. But it's a beautiful sight to enjoy it once in a while." Sakayanagi-san seemed to be echoing Hachiman's words.

She said, "It's a little inconvenient, and my walking efficiency will be significantly reduced. But don't worry. I've gained experience in more difficult environments during school trips."

Speaking of school trips, one can't help but recall that during the school trip, Hachiman also had an experience of traveling with Sakayanagi. At that time, Sakayanagi was waiting for a car and was knocked down by others, and then Hachiman helped her up.

And Sakayanagi seemed to have thought of the same thing.

"Come to think of it, I still needed Hikigaya's help back then, but now—"

Sakayanagi-san said this, suddenly showing a confident expression, and began to show her skill in walking with a cane in the snow.

Her tone was full of joy and pleasure, as if she was demonstrating a strategy.

But from an outsider's perspective, it is still quite dangerous.

As Hachiman began to think, he noticed that Sakayanagi seemed to be trying to pull out the cane stuck in the snow, but he couldn't pull it out and was about to lose his balance.

Noticing this scene, Hikigaya-kun had been keeping an eye on her. It should be said that he had been secretly paying attention to her during her performance, and this came in handy at this time. Hikigaya-kun carefully supported Sakayanagi's left shoulder to prevent her from falling.

"It's still dangerous." Hachiman said.

"Well--"

However, Sakayanagi, who made a mistake during her performance, did not waver, but instead smiled inexplicably.

"This is also in my plan."

"Because I think Hikigaya-kun is that type of person."

"You can't trust me at all and are always nervous to guard against any danger I might cause."

"Like—" She paused, then added, "Like someone like my father. I'm confident I can walk properly, but if I act recklessly like this, I'll definitely increase the risk of falling. However, I know that even if I fail, Hikigaya-kun will come to save me."

Someone like a father, does that mean someone like her family?

Hachiman began to figure out what she meant.

I thought she might confess, but now it seems more like she has been given a nice guy card.

So, did he actually misunderstand?

Sakayanagi didn't mean to keep him here, didn't mean to give him chocolate, and didn't mean to confess her feelings to him.

Thinking of this, Hachiman asked. "So, why did you invite me for a night walk? Is there something you can only say when we're alone?"

"If you need an audience, Kamuro-san can provide that."

"Although she looked reluctant, she was still a qualified listener," Hachiman said.

"Kamiro-san, that's impossible." But Sakayanagi immediately rejected the suggestion, "After all, Kamuro-san's brain isn't very good."

"I'd like to ask Hikigaya-kun about your opinion of Class A," Sakayanagi said. "Please tell me what you think of Class A's strengths and weaknesses."

It turned out to be the case.

I thought Sakayanagi was having some personal affair, but it turned out to be a business matter?

And Hachiman probably understood what she wanted to say.

The only truly safe option for Class A is to buy the enemy over. If the enemy is from a different grade, it will definitely be rejected. However, if the enemy is from the same grade and the one being bought does not refuse, then it may succeed.

Sakayanagi had mentioned the matter of buying him into Class A during last year's grade-wide sports meet.

Although it seems like bringing up old things again, he still needs to think about it carefully.

But Hikigaya-kun had actually thought about this issue a long time ago.

"The overall quality of students in Class A is far superior to other classes. If we talk about the level of comfort, then Ichinose's class is the easiest to get along with." Hachiman said this while paying attention to Sakayanagi's expression.

Sakayanagi's expression didn't change.

So Hachiman continued, "And Ichinose's class is also accumulating points. As long as I agree, they'll probably pay the points to buy me over."

“But I don’t think this is a very good solution.”

"Because the special exams over the next year or so will surely be incredibly intense, and when graduation approaches, facing the competition for a spot in Class A, the prospect of losing a spot in Class A will be incredibly painful for both the current Class A and Ichinose's class. They'll regret not being able to give their class a chance to decide the outcome, or they'll regret losing points and ultimately missing out on Class A."
