People are teaching, my love stock market just wants to be full

"We boys will all be cheering for you, come on, everyone."

Shibata was also cheering everyone up from behind. After all, in this class of people who share the same aspirations, everyone hopes to achieve a good result.

"Uh-huh."

The first-grade girls' obstacle course race is about to begin. Participants, please get ready. The first group is about to begin.

【Countdown three minutes.】

When the announcement sounded, the first-year students turned their attention to the competition field. It was only then that Hashima Hikaru discovered that Horikita Suzune was among the first group of girls to appear.

The girl with long black hair is doing warm-up exercises seriously at this moment. She stretches her arms and thighs in a very standard manner, with a meticulous expression on her face.

In contrast, standing next to her were two girls from Class D who had won the hurdle competition. Hashima Hikaru remembered their names: Yajima Mariko and Kinoshita Minori. They both seemed to be in the sports club and had very strong physical fitness.

"If that's the case, we're going to fail again, right?"

The game is about to begin, and Hikaru Hashima stares at the field, wanting to see who will win the game next.

"Beep!"

After the whistle sounded, classmate Kinoshita rushed out first. Her physical fitness was indeed excellent. She was the first among the eight people to step onto the balance beam. Not only that, her agility was also very high, and she walked very smoothly on the wobbly balance beam.

The second and third were Horikita Suzune and Yajima-san, who was almost shoulder to shoulder with her. Their situation was very tense. They almost stepped onto the balance beam at the same time, with only a slight deviation in their positions.

Obstacle races are different from ordinary 100-meter races or hurdle races. In the latter, speed is the most important factor, but in the former, the overall quality of the contestants is tested, and mistakes will occur as long as there is any lag.

"Come on!!! Horikita-san!!!"

"Kinoshita!! Charge!"

The students in Class C and Class D were cheering as loudly as possible, and the same was true for Class A. Although the two girls who participated in the competition did not get a very good ranking, everyone was still cheering them on with all their might.

After staring at the field for a while, a strange idea gradually arose in Mitsuru Hashima's mind.

Logically speaking, the two girls in Class D obviously possess extremely strong physical qualities. If they were to enter two groups separately, their chances of both getting first place would be greater, but Class D chose to put them in the first group at the same time.

In this case, you can only get first place at most, which is obviously not worth it.

Why is that?

"Is this another of Longyuan's strategies?"

He silently pondered the reason, his eyes fixed on Horikita Suzune who was accelerating on the track. The black-haired girl's ranking was not very good. Apart from Kinoshita who had always maintained the lead, Yajima-san entered the second round of obstacles almost at the same time as her.

"Can Horikita-san win this time?"

Hirata heard his classmates discussing this issue and his expression became a little serious.

Since they have lost their sports champion Sudo, and the usually arrogant Kouenji is also not very interested in the sports festival, among the remaining students in Class C, Horikita Suzune is also very athletic. She has participated in many recommended competitions and is everyone's hope.

"I believe she will win."

Unfortunately, Hirata's idea did not come true. When entering the third obstacle, Yajima-san became the one who came from behind. She directly surpassed Kinoshita who was in the front and became the leader.

Horikita Suzune could only try her best to catch up with Kinoshita-san who was not far away. If everything went well, she might end up in second place.

"hateful……"

The black-haired girl gritted her teeth as she ran. During the previous hurdle race, she felt that these two people were deliberately testing her. They could clearly gain an advantage, but they only started to speed up in the last section.

Horikita Suzune was very unwilling to accept such a defeat, and she wanted to regain her advantage in this obstacle race.

However, when there was only the last stretch of road left, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the girl who was still accelerating. At this time, she had no way to stop, so she crashed into the figure uncontrollably.

"Oh!"

"oops!!!"

"It hurts!"

After the two bodies collided violently, Horikita Suzune and Kinoshita immediately fell to the ground. She looked at the girl in front of her in shock and anger.

After her body lost weight, the black-haired girl found that the other party deliberately entangled her legs at the moment of falling, and then she let out a painful wail.

"Hiss, what are you doing!?"

"I……"

At this moment in the audience, when everyone saw the two people fall, Hashima Hikaru's expression changed instantly, and he immediately realized that this was definitely planned long ago. One person, who was fighting for the first place in the competition, just ran, and the other person tried to restrict Horikita Suzune with the purpose of hurting her.

"Horikita-san!!!"

The students in Class C were shocked. No one had expected this to happen. After Horikita and Kinoshita fell together, many players ran past them and it seemed that they could only get the last place.

"no!"

Horikita Suzune endured the pain in her legs and stood up tremblingly. She absolutely could not accept being the last one, so she took another step.

As for classmate Kinoshita, because his legs were in so much pain, he asked the teacher for help and ended up at the bottom of the class.

At this time, in the Class C camp, Yosuke Hirata started a conversation with a boy next to him.

"Ayanokouji-kun, have you noticed something wrong?"

"This really can't be considered a coincidence. Perhaps there are more complicated reasons behind it..."

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka looked at the arena indifferently. He actually almost had the answer in his mind, but he didn't plan to say it out loud now.

"It seems like we've suffered an unprecedented disadvantage in this sports festival."

As the class leader, after witnessing one defeat after another, Hirata Yosuke was filled with worry. He didn't expect that Class C would have such a big problem before the most crucial recommendation competition even started.

Now Sudo is suspended, and Horikita, who is better at sports among the girls, also had an accident. The fall just now may affect her future games. It's really hard to put it into words.

After finishing the first group's obstacle course race, the black-haired girl did not return directly to Class C's tent, but went to the faucet behind the stadium to wash her hands.

Looking at the scars on her palm caused by the friction with the ground, Horikita Suzune's expression was a little solemn. She probably had some guesses, but could not confirm them 100%.

Just then, the girl's phone rang with a notification that she had received a text message.

After opening it, she found that it was sent by Mitsuru Hashima.

Hikaru Hashima: Horikita-san, I have something to remind you.

Horikita Suzune:What's the matter?

Hikaru Hashima: Someone is targeting you. Although we haven't found the key evidence yet, I think you should have noticed it. I hope you can pay attention.

Hikaru Hashima: You and I have a personal partnership, so if you encounter any problems that cannot be solved, please remember to contact me immediately. This is what I promised Horikita-senpai, so you don't have to worry about it.

No need to reply any more, good luck to you.

"..."

After seeing these two messages, Horikita Suzune was a little dazed.

She recalled the scene when she fell just now. The classmate Kinoshita was obviously running on her left side at the beginning, but within a few seconds he appeared directly in front of her. This distance would cause an uncontrollable collision.

And her leg movements also show the seriousness of the problem.

"Is there a traitor?"

The girl touched her palm and felt the tingling pain. Her pretty eyebrows wrinkled and she began to ponder the cause and effect of the incident.

"From the hurdles to the obstacle course, they were the ones who stopped me every time. So, did someone really leak my race information?"

The answer is not difficult to get, but what concerns Horikita Suzune is that Class C does not currently have an advantage in the entire first grade. Even if the classmates in the class are not motivated, they will not take the initiative to target her.

"Who is the one?"

With this question in mind, Horikita Suzune washed her hands, touched her ankle again, and after confirming that the impact just now was not very serious, she turned around and returned to the Class C tent.

"Horikita-san, how are you?"

Hirata immediately went over to meet the other party after seeing him. He cared about this matter more than anyone else. If something really went wrong, Class C would have no chance of turning things around.

"The problem is not serious. I have already dealt with it."

Horikita Suzune replied coldly.

"That's good. I was really scared just now. Horikita-san, please be careful."

"Yeah, yeah, falling down is a serious thing."

"Please keep going, Horikita-san."

After scanning the classmates who showed concern in front of her one by one, Horikita Suzune's gaze finally stopped on the short-haired girl standing on her right.

"If you really feel unwell, please tell everyone. We will all provide support to Horikita-san."

A gentle and sweet smile appeared on Kushida Kikyo's face, releasing her kindness.

"...I will pay attention."

Horikita Suzune withdrew her gaze and didn't look at the other person's face again.

"Uh-huh."

There was still a gentle smile on Kushida Kikyo's pretty face, but a gloomy light flashed in her eyes.

276

Chapter 276: Horikita Suzune's Test.

After witnessing the accidental fall, the girls in Class A were a little worried, but after some encouragement from Ichinose Honami, they finally completed the competition smoothly, and many of them achieved good results.

The obstacle race is over, and the next round is the three-legged race. Unlike the mixed three-legged race of men and women in the recommended competition, the first three-legged race is paired with men and women.

Because the roster had been decided a week before the sports festival, Hikaru Hashima had already trained with his partner, Ryuji Kanzaki.

In a three-person race, cooperation is very important. If the difference in agility and physical strength between the two people is too great, one person will be dragged down by the other. When the list was first decided, the Sports Festival Special Operations Team had a very serious discussion and finally decided on this grouping.

"Let's strive for first place together."

Hashima Hikaru looked at Kanzaki Ryuji beside him and expressed his confidence.

"Yes, let's take this point."

"Shibata was just saying that he actually wants to be in the same group with you, Hashima-san."

Kanzaki, while warming up, said to Hashima Hikaru, "It's a pity that I took this opportunity away from me."

"As for Shibata, he can lead the others to victory, so that his talent won't be wasted."

Hashima Hikaru looked at the electronic screen hanging in the middle in the distance. The score comparison displayed on it was very obvious. The Red Team now had a very big advantage. If they could maintain this trend, the winner of the sports festival would almost be a foregone conclusion.

"Then let's hurry up and get ready. I can't wait to reap the victory."

The three-legged race officially began after the broadcast announcement. Since each group consists of two people, each class only sends one group to compete in this competition, and each group also has eight people.

When it was the turn of the group that Hashima Hikaru and Kanzaki Ryuji were in, the girls all started cheering them on.

"Come on, Hashima-san and Kanzaki-san. I believe you will win."

"That's right, we must win this game."

"We will."

[Next, please prepare yourselves, first-year boys, for the three-legged race in Group 6. The competition is about to begin!]

After standing firmly on the starting line, Hikaru Hashima and Kanzaki checked the rope tied below for the last time. Because the rules require a three-legged race, any illegal operation may affect the results, so they must be careful.

"Are you ready?"

"of course."

Kanzaki Ryuji, who had already made many attempts during training, was quite confident. He looked at the track in front of him, then turned his head to look at several groups of students from other classes next to him, and was very sure that he could win with this group.

"Beep!"

When the whistle sounded, Hikaru Hashima and Ryuji Kanzaki took a step forward almost at the same time. Their heights were almost the same, and the overall coordination was very good. They immediately distanced themselves from the group next to them.

"Come on, Hashima-san!!!"

"Come on Kanzaki-san!!! Come on Hashima-san!!! You're the best."

"Come on, we must win this game."

When it was the turn of the group of Hashima Hikaru and Kanzaki, the students in Class A immediately burst into great enthusiasm. The girls were the loudest, not for any other reason but because they looked very pleasing to the eye.

Ryuji Kanzaki has a very good look. As a member of the core decision-making circle of Class A, he is very popular among the girls in the class. And Hashima Hikaru is even more popular. Do you know what it means to be ranked first in the handsome boys ranking for many consecutive years?

The boy had a handsome and elegant face, excellent body proportions, and a determined look on his face as he ran hard. Not only the girls in Class A, but also many girls from other classes had their eyes fixed on him.

Even though everyone knows he's taken, it won't hurt to look at him a few more times.
