"So that's it."
The young man nodded slightly, showing a relieved expression and said, "It seems that I made the right choice. This kind of situation will not happen again."
"Humph, that's good if you know."
Looking at the other person's half-smile, Kikyo Kushida knew that Hashima Hikaru was just trying to fool her, but since the excuse had been given, she could just let go of what had just happened.
Regarding this point, in fact, Kushida has always felt that it is the key to being able to get along with each other for a long time. The boy will not deliberately seize some embarrassing moments to emphasize them, but will transition the topic by pretending to be stupid or perfunctory, so as not to make himself feel embarrassed.
Humph, I don’t know which girl this guy learned this from, he uses this move so skillfully.
"Of course, I've always been clear about my own attitude. After all, Kushida-san and I are on the same side," Hashima Hikaru picked up his Coke again and took a sip, smiling faintly. "Our cooperation will continue, so I won't embarrass Kushida-san."
Of course, this is only limited to the process of stock price increase.
This sentence was naturally added in my mind. As a high-quality stock, the 5000 shares of Kushida Kikyo can earn quite high profits after the stock price soars. Moreover, this time there is no need to rush to liquidate and cash out, but it can be used multiple times.
"After all, Hashima-san is a smart person, and smart people know what's best to do."
Kushida Kikyo leaned back against the leather seat behind her, her tone stern.
"This deal allows us to get things that benefit both of us, so I don't want any surprises, do you understand?"
"Of course."
Hashima Hikaru nodded, then asked, "Is this why Kushida-san contacted me today? Or is there something else?"
Actually, there was no more, but Kushida Kikyo didn't want to answer just like that, so she asked back lightly.
"I can only say that this is the most important thing, so I was the first to bring it up. Hashima-san, you asked this, is there something urgent you need to do?"
The short-haired girl raised her eyes and stared into his eyes, as if trying to find out some answer.
"Not really. It's summer vacation now, so I'm still very free." The boy shook his head. If there were no special exams, the most thing he would do on the cruise ship would be reading.
"Don't you have to go on a date?"
The girl's sudden question made Hashima Hikaru's face look a little confused.
"What date? I'm single, so how can I have a date?"
Hashima Hikaru waved his hand. Although it shouldn't be too difficult for him to fall in love, with the support of the stock market system, he naturally had to focus on obtaining rewards. This was the key to helping himself have a happy life.
"No?"
Kushida acted as if he didn't believe it at all, raised his hand to his mouth, and whispered to Hashima Hikaru, "But I heard that Hashima-san is dating Ichinose-san. Isn't this true?"
"..."
Hashima Hikaru looked up and down at the short-haired girl's expression, not knowing what she meant by asking this question. However, many students in Class A actually knew the answer to this question, and he did not hide it from everyone.
In the current situation, the boy cannot date anyone. In order to earn money from stocks, he must at least convey the message that he is still single.
"Of course not. Ichinose-san and I are just classmates. We're not dating."
"Really? But I see that the way that Honoka-chan and Hashima-san get along is not like that of ordinary classmates at all." Kushida Kikyo still remembers the scene from last night.
Ichinose Honami held the boy's hand and rested her head on his shoulder, and the two of them called each other's names.
Is this how classmates get along? You think I'm a three-year-old, right?
"Well... of course they're not just ordinary classmates, they're closer friends. After all, Ichinose-san and I are both dedicated to the class, and we often have to fight side by side."
Hashima Hikaru shook his head. He didn't intend to continue arguing with Kushida Kikyo on this topic, so he changed the subject directly and said, "So, Kushida-san, do you have anything else to say?"
"It's nothing important, but I'm really curious about your relationship. It seems to be called..." Kushida Kikyo touched the ends of her hair and said with a smile: "More than friendship, but less than lovers?"
"Well...it's okay if you understand it that way."
After confirming that Kushida Kikyo had nothing else to do, he stood up with the cup of Coke that the other party had given him.
"Next time, let me buy Kushida-san a drink. I have something else to do, so I'll be leaving now."
"Well, see you later, Hashima-san."
Kikyo Kushida waved at him from her seat, and when the other person's figure was completely out of sight, the smile on her face also disappeared without a trace.
"No matter what, don't even think about betraying me..."
The last murmur was so soft that even the girl herself could hardly hear it, as if she was talking in a dream.
---
After walking out of the cinema, Hashima Hikaru's gaze fell on the system panel. In fact, just when he and Kushida Kikyo were hugging each other, a message prompt had popped up in the system bar, but he didn't have time to read it at that time.
Also, after saying goodbye to Kikyo Kushida, a new prompt seemed to pop up, so I took a look at it.
Your attitude pleased Kushida Kikyo. Although she knew you were being perfunctory, she felt reassured. Kushida Kikyo's stock price rose 10 points to 70.
Your collaboration with Kushida Kikyo is like the most important certificate in her heart. She cares more and more about this relationship. Kushida Kikyo's stock price has increased by 20 and is currently at 90.
"After discovering this guy's other side, it seems like her stock price has become much easier to increase. Is this my illusion?"
Hashima Hikaru recalled the entire process of the second round of stock price increase of Kushida Kikyo. Although it was still inseparable from Horikita Suzune, most of the time, the stock price would change after close contact with her.
Is this some new way to play?
"Forget it, as long as the stock price can't be raised, no matter what the reason is, the best thing to do is to get more system funds in the end." Yudao Guang didn't dwell on this. After all, the system has been in place for so long, he had already made up his mind.
After returning to the first-floor deck along the stairs, feeling the cool sea breeze on his face, the boy's thoughts fell back on the class competition.
There are still six days left before the cruise trip. If the school really does not have any arrangements, then the rest of the time will be entirely up to the students themselves.
It seems that this school is really generous to be able to charter such a large luxury cruise ship.
Just as the boy was enjoying the sea breeze, his phone suddenly rang with a notification that a text message had been received.
When I opened it, I found it was another stock character.
Sakura Airi: Is Hashima-san free now?
It has been a while since I last saw her. After the final exams, Hikaru Hashima has been staying with her classmates, and I haven't had many opportunities to meet her.
Hashima Hikaru: Of course I'm free. Is there anything I can help you with, Sakura-san?
Sakura Airi: I found a great spot for taking photos on the cruise ship. Would you like to come over, Hashima-san?
Hashima Hikaru: Sure, please send me the address.
After the other party sent the address, the boy turned around and went up the stairs again. He couldn't help but touch his forehead, feeling a little emotional.
Is this what real time management is?
Seamless connection, start!
Chapter 175 Sakura: I want to record Hashima-san's appearance
The address that Airi Sakura sent was at the back door of a restaurant on the fourth floor of the cruise ship. There was a spacious terrace there from which you could see the vast sky and the blue sea in the distance.
It is at the back of the restaurant, so generally no one will notice it. Most students will leave from the corner of the door after eating.
After arriving at the place, Mitsuru Hashima looked at the surrounding environment and sighed in his heart.
As expected of Sakura, the places she looks for are always very secluded corners, but they all have unique scenery.
"Hashima-san, you're here."
When the familiar figure appeared in her sight, Sakura Airi's little face instantly lit up with joy and she quickly went to meet him.
"Good morning, Sakura-san."
Hashima Hikaru greeted her with a smile, then looked the girl up and down at her current attire.
Airi Sakura was still wearing her baggy sportswear, revealing no skin at all, and she was still wearing the pair of red-framed glasses without prescription.
After sensing the boy's somewhat surprised gaze, the red-haired girl immediately explained: "Well, because I have to live with other girls on the cruise, I didn't bring many of my clothes...including swimsuits and the like."
"Will Hashima-san be disappointed?" She pursed her lips and looked at Hashima Hikaru's face, worried that he would think she was too boring.
"Of course not. I've seen Sakura-san in all sorts of casual clothes, and I've memorized them all here."
Hashima Hikaru pointed to his head and said with a smile: "There will definitely be opportunities in the future."
"Uh-huh."
After hearing the other party's explanation, Sakura Airi's face immediately turned red.
In the few months before summer vacation, she and Hashima Hikaru were very proactive in their private interactions in the room. They would first show each other the private clothes photos that needed to be posted on the blog before deciding which one to use.
And after realizing his feelings, Sakura Airi would even muster up the courage to change some of her outer clothes in front of the boy, wearing only a tight vest and hot pants, boldly showing her perfect figure to Hashima Mitsutomo.
Although she was extremely shy, she was willing to do it.
"This is indeed a nice place. How do you plan to take pictures, Sakura?" Hikaru Hashima walked to the terrace fence and looked at the sea in the distance.
"I plan to take a picture of Hashima-san first, and then Hashima-san will take a picture of me." Sakura Airi took her camera and began to adjust some parameter settings.
"sure."
Photography activities of Hashima Hikaru and Sakura Airi have been held many times. With the boy's active inquiry, he has actually mastered many photography skills and can at least take some good pictures.
"Then get ready, Hashima-san. You have to obey my orders at all times when you're a model."
Sakura Airi's heart was burning with passion. In fact, she had done something without telling Hashima Hikaru. After each photography activity, she would secretly develop the photos of the boys she had taken, and made an album, which she hid in her quilt.
Hikaru Hashima didn't know about this, it was a secret that Sakura had never revealed.
"Hashima-san, turn your back to the fence and smile."
After the filming started, Sakura's expression became obviously much more serious. She gripped the camera tightly in her hand and stared at the person in the camera intently. Every move of the other person could touch her heart.
"Change your position."
"Yeah, you can tilt your head. Very good. Keep it like this."
Airi Sakura was quite professional when taking photos of Hikaru Hashima. As a model who loves taking photos, this is her area.
About twenty minutes later, after enjoying the photo taking, Airi Sakura looked at the photo gallery on the camera and a satisfied smile appeared on her pretty face.
"How's the shoot going?"
Hashima Hikaru moved closer to the girl and leaned over to check the photos inside.
I have to say that if a person has a good foundation, he or she will never look ugly in any photo.
What's more, Sakura's photography skills are very good. She presses the shutter button very accurately, making the boy's already outstanding face look very handsome. Every angle looks like a professional model photo.
"I think it's pretty good. As expected of Sakura-san." Hikaru Hashima took the camera and praised the girl's photography skills with a smile.
"No, it's just that Hashima-san is very pretty..."
The girl was very happy when she looked at the pictures she took today, because today Hashima Hikaru was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and swimming trunks, which was an outfit she rarely saw in school. After all, Sakura didn't have the chance to take swimming lessons with him.
I will have to update the number of photo albums after I get back.
A smile played on the red-haired girl's lips.
"Then it's my turn next."
Hashima Hikaru raised his camera and was also very involved in photographing Sakura. On the one hand, showing such an attitude was a standard way to increase the other party's stock price. On the other hand, it was always a pleasure to be able to photograph a beautiful girl with an outstanding appearance and figure.
"Uh-huh."
After the photo session for the two of them was over, looking at the red-haired girl whose forehead was covered with sweat from posing in various ways, Hikaru Hashima took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to her, motioning her to wipe it off.
"Thank you, Hashima-san." Sakura Airi's face showed a nostalgic expression as she stared at the other's profile.
"Sakura, have you ever thought about your future path?" the boy suddenly asked.
"Eh?"
Sakura Airi stood beside him, somewhat puzzled by these words.
"I'm talking about Sakura-san's future after graduation. For example, what kind of job do you want to do? Or what kind of industry do you want to work in?"
Hashima Hikaru turned his head and looked at the shy girl. Although they had been spending time together privately this semester, she no longer looked timid in front of him, but instead seemed quite active.
However, when the boy walked around the window of Class C's classroom, he saw that she was still sitting alone in her seat and almost never spoke to her classmates.
Although this kind of personality and way of dealing with things can make her a print model or blog idol who is only active on the Internet, it is definitely easy to be eliminated in this high-pressure and competitive school.
After all, the first special test is about living on a deserted island. What if the subsequent tests are more difficult and force you to cooperate with others?
Hikaru Hashima is not her nanny, so it is impossible for her to be with her all the time.
"As for that...I haven't thought about it yet."
