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

"Do you have any evidence for this? You said the intelligence was leaked, but why weren't others targeted, but you?"

While trying to fight back, Kushida Kikyo glanced at Hashima Hikaru who was sitting there, but she found that the boy remained calm, as if he didn't care about this at all.

"Because your original goal was me, it has nothing to do with anyone else!"

Horikita Suzune stared at Kushida Kikyo's pretty face and slowly said something that almost drove the short-haired girl crazy.

"I actually just remembered recently... There was a student like this in my junior high school. She was Kushida-san, right?"

This sentence was like opening Pandora's box. Kushida Kikyo had no time to react. She saw Hashima Hikaru suddenly stop what he was doing and looked up at her.

"I don't understand what you're saying at all. Are you trying to ask me to guess a riddle?"

In fact, Kushida Kikyo already regretted following along. If she and Horikita Suzune were confronting each other alone, she wouldn't be worried at all, but it would be completely different if Hashima Hikaru was present.

Once the other party finds out about that, the girl will no longer be able to pretend, and even her close relationship with the other party may change. This is something that Kikyo Kushida absolutely cannot accept.

"Have you forgotten, Kushida-san? Then let me remind you."

Horikita Suzune has no intention of letting her go just like that. The girl knows that Kushida Kikyo and Hashima Hikaru must be very familiar with each other in private, and she can continue to put pressure on her until she admits it.

"There was a very talented female classmate in my junior high school. She almost achieved everything on her own..."

"you shut up!!!"

Kushida Kikyo finally couldn't bear it anymore. She yelled, interrupting Horikita Suzune's voice, and her whole body began to tremble constantly, not knowing whether it was because of anger or fear.

"So you admit it? You're deliberately framing me?"

Horikita Suzune's voice was cold.

But at this moment, she heard the sound of a chair being pulled away. When she turned around, she saw that Hikaru Hashima had already stood up from her seat.

"Really? Didn't we agree to have dinner? Why are we suddenly arguing?"

The boy's voice was calm, as if the confrontation and accusation had never happened.

"Hashima..."

Kikyo Kushida raised her head nervously, looking at the boy who was getting closer and closer. She became very scared, afraid that the other party would hate her. After all, what she had just done was basically admitting the fact of frame-up.

But soon, the short-haired girl saw Hashima Hikaru raised his hand to her. She was very familiar with this action, which was a secret signal unique to the two of them.

"Well."

Kushida Kikyo couldn't bear it any longer, and the next moment, she quickly threw herself into the boy's arms. After feeling the addictive warmth, the girl stretched out her arms and tightly wrapped her arms around Hashima Hikaru's waist, burying her little head tightly in his chest.

"It seems that what Horikita-san said is true... Did you frame her?"

"Ah."

"Then there has to be an explanation for this matter. It's up to you to decide how to deal with it."

Hashima Hikaru held up Kushida Kikyo's face, stared into her eyes, and said, "Once you do something, there's no room for regret. I hope you can handle this matter yourselves. As for the rest, I didn't hear anything just now."

"Ah."

Kushida Kikyo clung tightly to Hashima Hikaru's arms, as if all the strength in her body had been drained away. She rubbed the boy's palm and replied softly, "I understand."

"This is a good boy."

Hashima Hikaru touched her face with a gentle look.

On the other side, Horikita Suzune, who witnessed the whole process, was already stunned. She originally thought that Kushida Kikyo and Hashima Hikaru had a good relationship in private, but she didn't expect it to be this kind of "very good".

Isn't Hashima-san's girlfriend Ichinose-san?

what on earth is it?

Chapter 309: Kushida's showdown, Horikita Suzune's bet.

"I said, have you hugged enough?"

Horikita Suzune looked coldly at the two people hugging each other in front of her, with a slightly ugly expression.

This scene was indeed beyond the girl's expectations, but she was not a gossipy person. Anyway, she and Hashima Hikaru were only partners at the moment, and the other party's emotional problems were not within her concern.

"Did you hear that? This is Horikita-san's dormitory."

Hikaru Hashima released his arms from around Kikyo Kushida, signaling her that it was time to act.

"Yes, I understand."

After Kushida Kikyo reluctantly left the boy's arms, she straightened her wrinkled clothes and looked at the black-haired girl standing next to her.

"If that's the case, let's talk it out."

"What?"

Horikita Suzune asked.

"It's about my past and why I'm targeting you."

After being gently comforted by Hashima Hikaru, Kushida Kikyo has calmed down. Since he has made it clear that he doesn't care about what he just heard, he can just come clean.

"Really? Then let me hear why you're targeting me."

Horikita Suzune briefly recalled the experience at the beginning of the school year. This classmate of hers, Kushida, had always been trying to get close to her. Was he finally going to explain the reason now?

"It's because of what you just didn't finish talking about...my past."

Kushida Kikyo paused and calmly explained, "After I discovered that you and I graduated from the same junior high school, I didn't want you to reveal my past to others. That's why I took the initiative to find you in the first place."

"I won't do such a boring thing. Your worry is meaningless."

Horikita Suzune replied quickly.

"Such a statement is meaningless to me. My original intention was to get closer to you. If possible, it would be best if I could understand your social circle so that I could prevent you from revealing my past."

A smile suddenly crossed Kushida Kikyo's lips: "But then I found out that you don't have any social circle at all. The only person you have any contact with is him."

Having said that, the short-haired girl looked at Hikaru Hashima who was standing next to her. If it weren't for this reason, she really wouldn't have had so many entanglements with the other party and developed such a close relationship.

"You mean Hashima-san?"

Horikita Suzune also looked at the boy standing beside her with a relaxed expression. He didn't seem to care at all that the topic was suddenly directed to him, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"In short, after some things happened, I decided to have you drop out of school. Only by dropping out can this hidden danger be completely eliminated."

When she said this, Kikyo Kushida suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Although this plan failed, there would still be many opportunities in the future.

The showdown was just a small problem. What was more important was that she now had a close comrade-in-arms, and the girl believed that Hashima Hikaru would always be by her side.

"Is this why you betrayed me? You're really just worrying about nothing."

After understanding the other party's sinister intentions, Horikita Suzune did not feel much anger. After thinking for a moment, she continued to ask: "So will you continue to carry out such a plan in the future?"

"Of course, I've already explained the reason clearly. If you want medical expenses or compensation, I can pay you personal points, but I won't apologize to you."

Kushida Kikyo spoke in a somewhat tough tone. What she had just been worried about was actually Hashima Hikaru's attitude. Now that she had no worries, the girl immediately expressed her true thoughts.

"I see, then I understand."

Horikita Suzune held her delicate chin with her small hand and kept reviewing the whole thing in her mind.

Now that she understood the other party's thoughts, she had to solve the problem in this regard. After all, her goal was to advance to Class A, so she naturally didn't want to be targeted in this way. Moreover, as the most popular student in the class, Kushida's destructive power should not be underestimated.

"If that's the case, I have a new idea that might be able to solve Kushida-san's problem."

"What do you mean?"

Kushida Kikyo stared at the girl's face with an extremely cold expression.

"Let's make a bet about the competition. The stakes are what Kushida-san cares about most."

Horikita Suzune spoke each word with a firm and powerful tone, "If I win, you can never target me again."

"Oh? What if you lose?"

Kushida Kikyo suddenly became interested and squinted her eyes to look at the pretty face of the black-haired girl.

"If I lose, I'll drop out."

Even Mitsuru Hashima, who was standing next to him, was a little surprised when he said this, but he did not speak at this time because the core problem came from Kikyo Kushida's obsession with the past, which was like a tangled knot that could not be resolved until the final result was achieved.

"Are you serious?"

Kushida Kikyo's expression had become quite serious. She could feel that the other party was not joking. If she really defeated her, as long as Horikita Suzune dropped out of school, no one would ever know her past again.

"Of course, I don't want someone to keep stabbing me in the back. Isn't this idea just right?"

Horikita Suzune folded her arms across her chest and said coldly, "This bet needs to be restricted by a contract and supervised by a witness."

"How about letting Hashima-san be the witness?"

The black-haired girl turned her head to look at Hikaru Hashima who was standing nearby watching the fun.

"I don't have any objection, but do you really want to make such a bet?"

Hashima Hikaru spread his hands and glanced at Kushida Kikyo who was thinking seriously. It seemed that this proposal really moved her. After all, this was an option that could solve all worries, but would it really be so smooth?

"This isn't a plan I came up with on the spur of the moment. Since Kushida-san won't give up on targeting me, this is the only way. I won't lose."

Horikita Suzune looked quite confident, with a strong will in her eyes. "I will definitely be promoted to Class A. This is something I must do."

"Haha, then I'll accompany you to the end."

After some thought, Kushida Kikyo finally agreed to the bet, but she still cautiously confirmed: "How do you plan to compete?"

"I haven't figured out how to compete yet, but since this school often holds special exams, let's see who's better in the next special exam."

Horikita Suzune looked into Kushida Kikyo's eyes and said slowly, "As for the specific content of the competition, we will discuss it after the special exam is announced."

"Okay, I accept your bet. If I lose, I won't target you anymore."

"It's a word."

Looking at the two girls who suddenly reached a certain consensus, Hashima Hikaru couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows.

I always feel that things are getting weirder, but doing this is indeed a result. At least it can make Kikyo Kushida more clear about the direction of her efforts. Everything will be revealed after the school's next special exam notice.

"Well, since you have reached a consensus, I will continue eating now. After all, we can't waste food."

Mitsuru Hashima glanced at the two people who were looking at each other, then pulled out a chair and sat down again.

"Of course, this was meant for you."

After reaching a preliminary consensus with Kushida Kikyo, Horikita Suzune also turned around and prepared to have her dinner.

When the short-haired girl standing next to her heard this, her expression froze instantly.

"Wait, what do you mean it was originally prepared for Hashima-san? Did you guys do anything in private?"

"This matter has nothing to do with you, Kushida-san. Didn't I just say that? We are not friends. I don't need to explain these things to you."

After Horikita Suzune filled her own bowl with rice, she also sat down at the dining table.

"Humph!"

Kushida Kikyo ignored the woman and turned her gaze to Hashima Hikaru. The boy still maintained a smiling expression, which made her heart suddenly burn with anger.

"Then you come and explain it to me!"

The short-haired girl didn't hesitate. She quickly walked towards him and immediately sat on Hashima Hikaru's lap.

"?"

Horikita Suzune on the opposite side slowly typed a question mark.

"what happened?"

Hashima Hikaru's tone remained gentle. He opened his arms so that the girl could sit better on his legs, then placed his hand holding the bowl in front of her.

"What is your relationship with this woman?"

Kushida Kikyo turned her head and observed Hashima Hikaru's face closely. If this guy was unfaithful again, she would have to bite him hard.

"To use Horikita-san's words, we are just partners."

"Partner?"

Kushida frowned and asked unhappily, "Why do you want to cooperate with her?"

"These things are a bit complicated to explain. Since we're collaborating, a lot of the information can only be known between the two of us. If I tell you, wouldn't that be a leak?"
