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

It's past eight o'clock in the evening now, so sending a message to Horikita Suzune shouldn't be considered harassment.

Mobile chat interface.

Hashima Hikaru: Horikita-san, are you busy now?

After this message was sent, it took about three minutes for the reply to arrive.

Horikita Suzune: Hashima-san, is there anything I can help you with?

Hashima Hikaru: There is one thing I need to ask Horikita-san.

Horikita Suzune: What's the matter?

Hikaru Hashima: Kushida-san from your class will probably invite you to the study session she's hosting tomorrow. You can join.

At this moment, Horikita Suzune, who was in her dormitory, had just finished taking a shower. Her long black hair hung freely behind her head. She was holding her cell phone, and seemed to not quite understand what this Hashima-san was talking about.

Horikita Suzune: Why?

Hashima Hikaru: It's a bit complicated to explain, but in short, it will definitely help you if you do it well.

Horikita Suzune: Can I disagree? I can study on my own and don't need help from others.

Humph, this is not up to you, please invite Horikita Manabu!

Hashima Hikaru smiled softly, turned his phone to Horikita Manabu's contact page, and took a screenshot of the picture being typed.

Hashima Hikaru: The picture has been sent.

When Horikita Suzune saw the picture sent by the other party, her heart tightened immediately, because if she did not agree, this guy would send a message to Horikita Manabu saying that he was resisting the last agreement.

The girl, who didn't want to disappoint her brother, would certainly not allow this to happen.

"hateful..."

Ever since they met that night, Horikita Suzune actually had a feeling that this seemingly gentle Hashima-san was definitely not a good person.

Although his aura is comparable to his brother's, his behavior is very different. It is really bad that he blatantly does such a thing to threaten girls.

Hashima Hikaru: So, Horikita-san, have you figured it out now? Have you changed your mind?

Horikita Suzune:......

Horikita Suzune: I promise you, is there anything else you want to talk about?

Hashima Hikaru: Don't worry, since I promised Horikita-senpai to help you, I will definitely not break my promise. Joining the study group is a good start.

Horikita Suzune: What do you mean?

Hikaru Hashima: After joining the study group, you can take the opportunity to get to know other students in your class and expand your influence.

Horikita Suzune: I'm not interested in these. If this is your purpose, I will agree tomorrow. Let's stop here for now. I'm going to rest.

"Really, I haven't finished speaking yet."

Hashima Hikaru couldn't help but shook his head. No wonder Horikita Manabu kept emphasizing that Horikita Suzune would never be able to be promoted to Class A with her own abilities. If she became a lone ranger, it would be very troublesome in this school.

Unless you really have the strength to surpass anyone else and crush all opponents in all aspects, then it doesn’t matter if you don’t have a companion, there will definitely be someone who will follow you.

Otherwise, it is indeed impossible to be promoted to Class A by one's own strength, and even the 20 million route is very difficult.

After all, collecting private points is not an easy task. Even if private points are awarded in future special exams, it will be difficult to complete any plan without companions.

"Forget it, since she agreed, let's just leave it at that for now."

Hikaru Hashima didn't plan to continue to dwell on it. He thought that as long as this guy hit a wall, he would understand.

Then he picked up his phone and sent a message to his next target.

Hashima Hikaru: Kushida-san, are you busy now?

This time the reply speed was much faster than Horikita Suzune's, and the reply arrived in less than ten seconds. It seems that this incredibly popular little angel is very idle. Is she always playing with her mobile phone?

Kushida Kikyo: What's up, Hashima-san? I'm free now.

At this time, the short-haired girl had changed into her pajamas and was lying on the bed, peeking at the screen bored. There were many group chats on her phone, most of which were small groups among girls, as well as class groups of Class D, etc.

Hashima Hikaru: Oh, I was wondering if you've figured out how to talk to Horikita tomorrow about the study session?

After seeing the message sent by the boy, Kushida Kikyo immediately jumped up from the bed. She was a little wary of Hashima's caring attitude.

Kushida Kikyo: I'm worried about what to do if Horikita-san doesn't agree.

Hashima Hikaru: Don't worry, I believe that Kushida-san can accomplish it with his abilities. After all, this is a great thing that will benefit the class.

Hashima Hikaru: Have the other places for the study session been decided?

Kikyo Kushida: Well, I’ve already chosen them. They are all students who are not doing well in the class. I discussed it with Hirata-san, and he agreed with my idea.

Hashima Hikaru: I see.

Kushida Kikyo: Yes, I will try my best.

After seeing the other party's reply, Hashima Hikaru put down his phone.

The short-haired girl opposite waited for a long time but didn't receive the next message from Mitsuru Hashima, and a look of confusion appeared on her pretty face.

What is this guy's purpose? Why did he suddenly stop moving?

If you really want something from me, you should be able to tell me now. Is there any information that I don't know?

Kushida Kikyo recalled the various situations from the time she first met Hashima Hikaru to the time they met for dinner today. Except for the time when she saw him lying, he had been very friendly most of the time.

Could it be that he is helping me just to be friends with me?

When this thought appeared in her mind, it was extinguished by Kushida the next moment.

The girl always believed in one thing, that is, apart from relatives, no one would be nice to another person for no reason. This classmate Yujima had just met her.

After learning about the school's in-depth rules, Kikyo Kushida understood the importance of class competition. She invited Hikaru Hashima to dinner just to see if the boy was a tool that could be used to help her gather information about Class B.

But after today's dinner, Kushida felt like he was being led by him.

Not only that, but he takes his ideas so seriously that it's hard not to wonder what he's really trying to do.

Is he trying to gather information about Class D?

But it doesn't seem like it, because the focus of Hashima Hikaru's words is entirely about himself.

Unable to figure it out, Kikyo Kushida fell on the bed again. The short-haired girl raised her cell phone and saw the image reflected on the screen. It was her own face, with delicate eyebrows and eyes. Her every frown and smile could arouse a man's infinite imagination.

Could it be...

Kikyo Kushida carefully recalled the other person's demeanor when they were together. If this was the case, it would make sense. After all, many boys had confessed to her since the start of the school year. But could the reason really be so simple?

She still felt unsure, but couldn't think of any other possibilities for the moment.

----------

When the next morning came, the haggard-looking Kikyo Kushida sat up from her bed.

Yesterday she thought about it twice but still couldn't figure out why that guy wanted to help her, even though they were not in the same class. Later she was so sleepy that she fell asleep.

After getting up, the girl washed and changed her clothes according to her familiar rhythm. Standing in front of the mirror, Kushida Kikyo looked at the dark circles under her eyes and couldn't help cursing Hashima Hikaru in her heart. It was all his fault that she didn't sleep well last night.

But no matter what, today she is going to invite that woman, Horikita Suzune, to attend her study session. This is what Kikyo Kushida cares about most at the moment, and she must take it extremely seriously.

After entering the D class classroom, Kushida Kikyo, who was welcomed by everyone, immediately heard many people greeting her.

"Good morning, Kushida-san."

"Good morning, Kushida-chan!!"

There were both men and women who greeted her. After responding to everyone with a smile on her face, Kushida Kikyo saw her target, the lonely girl who sat in her seat as if she was in a different world from everyone else, Horikita Suzune.

"Never mind, let's go and try it first."

Kushida Kikyo took a deep breath. She knew that the other party had a very bad attitude towards her. She had tried to strike up a conversation with him several times before but failed, so she couldn't help feeling a little nervous now.

"Um, good morning, Horikita-san."

"?"

Horikita Suzune put down the book in her hand. She immediately remembered the message sent by Hashima Hikaru yesterday, so she nodded calmly to the short-haired girl as a statement.

"Horikita-san, I have a request that I hope you can agree to."

"I'm planning to organize a study session. Horikita-san has such good grades, why don't you join me? We can help the students improve their grades together."

"..."

Seeing that the other person's expression was still indifferent, Kushida Kikyo's heart was already hanging in her throat.

"Okay, I promise. Just call me when you have a study session."

"Is it really possible?"

After hearing the other party's agreement, the short-haired girl instantly showed an extremely happy smile on her face, and said in surprise: "I know, I will come to call you when the time comes."

At this moment in Class B, Mitsuru Hashima was taking a textbook from his drawer when he suddenly heard the system's prompt.

Horikita Suzune has joined Kushida Kikyo's study session. Although Kushida Kikyo is wary of you, she wants to continue using your abilities. Kushida Kikyo's stock price has increased by 10 points and is currently at 20.

"Are you wary of me?"

After seeing the system's text, Hikaru Hashima was stunned.

Was it because my enthusiastic attitude aroused her suspicion?

What a troublesome guy.

This is the butterfly effect caused by being in different classes. After all, the two have only known each other for a short time, and it is impossible for Hikari Hashima to gain Kikyo Kushida's trust immediately, but if he wants to increase the stock price, he has to take the initiative to contact the girl.

After thinking for a while, the boy touched his chin and muttered to himself slowly: "Anyway, this is a good start. Now it has been proven that there is no problem in heading in the direction of Horikita Suzune."

"But how can we get Kushida Kikyo to stop being on guard? We must first come up with a reasonable reason."

Chapter 64: Serious Horikita Suzune

Inside the Class 1-B classroom, Hikaru Hashima was thinking about how to solve this problem.

"I need to make Kushida agree with the reasons for my actions. I haven't considered this thoroughly before."

Hashima Hikaru tapped the table lightly, his thoughts racing.

"What's a better excuse..."

After about a few minutes, he thought of a very simple reason, which not only fits the current thoughts of the boys and girls, but also easily explains why he took the initiative to help her.

But, will she really believe it?

"Good morning, Hashima-san!"

A familiar greeting came from the side. Hashima Hikaru looked up at Ichinose Honami who was walking over and said with a smile.

"Good morning, Ichinose-san."

"Uh-huh."

After yesterday's call therapy, the girl no longer had the gloomy look she had yesterday. Her expression softened and she exuded a trustworthy aura.

"Then let's start reviewing yesterday's intelligence." Hikaru Hashima took out his notebook. After all, he had already told the lie, so he had to play it all out.

"Okay, let me start first."

Ichinose Honami's expression grew more serious. She looked at the boy in front of her and began, "First, let's talk about Sakayanagi's attitude. She doesn't agree with the alliance, or rather, she looks down on the idea of ​​forming an alliance."

"Look down on me?" Hikaru Hashima was a little confused.

"Yes, she said Katsuragi-san's alliance with us was just a playful act, and she's very confident in herself," Ichinose Honami said slowly, recalling her conversation with Sakayanagi yesterday. "She seems to believe that whether it's the class competition or the fight with Katsuragi-san, she'll definitely be the winner in the end."

"That's how I feel."

"I see."

Hashima Hikaru nodded. He thought for a moment, then said, "It seems that this Sakayanagi-san will definitely be a tough opponent for us in the future. After all, she has obvious physical defects, which means she has given up all physical education classes and exams."

"But he was assigned to Class A despite this. This speaks volumes."

Ichinose Honami's expression was somewhat solemn. She had already deeply realized the other party's strength yesterday. After a conversation, although they exchanged a lot of information, the girl still felt that she could not see through her.

"What about the decision on the alliance? What do you think about it, Hashima-san?" the girl asked.

"Let's put it aside for now. Since we already know Sakayanagi's attitude and Katsuragi-san doesn't have full control over Class A, collaborating under these circumstances would be risky."
