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

After Kikyo Kushida entered Hashima Hikaru's bedroom, she couldn't help but have some curious thoughts. After all, this was her first time entering the room of a boy of the same age, and she had asked for it on her own initiative.

The furnishings in this dormitory looked very simple. Except for the extra things on the desk, the rest of the space was empty. There were no stickers or posters, or game consoles or comics or anything like that.

However, what concerned her was that there was a pleasant fragrance floating in the room. The fragrance was very faint, but Kushida Kikyo could still smell it.

"What...does this smell?"

Kushida Kikyo thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out what the smell was. However, she couldn't ask directly, otherwise it would be too impolite, so she had to keep this doubt in her heart for the time being.

Just as she was looking at Hashima Hikaru's room, the boy had already walked over with snacks and tea. After all, Kushida Kikyo was different from his classmates and needed to pay attention to basic hospitality etiquette.

"Thank you, Hashima-san."

After reaching out to take the paper cup, Kushida Kikyo couldn't help but look at Hashima Hikaru who was sitting opposite her.

The boy was wearing a simple white short-sleeved shirt, which matched his handsome face and made him look very refreshing.

It would be strange if such a person was not popular.

"Then, the next step is to reveal the important gift!"

Kushida Kikyo took out the gift she brought from the bag and handed it solemnly to the boy in front of her.

When Mitsuru Hashima tore open the gift bag, she found a transparent crystal ball inside, which was a prize. Inside was a forest hut covered with snow, which looked very exquisite.

"How's it going, Hashima-san? Do you like it?"

The short-haired girl's eyes sparkled with anticipation. This gift was carefully prepared by her. Such beautiful and transparent glass products are very popular among girls in the shopping street. It might not be appropriate to give them to boys.

But this is exactly what Kikyo Kushida's purpose is, to consolidate her own personality.

After all, the little angel who was very popular in the first grade had never been in a relationship and had no close relationship with any boys, so naturally she didn't understand what boys liked.

"I like it very much. It's very beautiful. It will be a nice decoration in the room."

Although Hashima Hikaru was puzzled as to why she chose this, he still showed an extremely satisfied expression on his face.

"This is actually my first time giving a gift to a boy, and I don't really know what Hashima-san likes, so I bought this. I'm so glad you like it." Kushida placed his little hand on his chest and let out a cute breath, as if relieved of a heavy burden.

"Really? Then I will definitely treasure it."

Mitsuru Hashima immediately showed an expression of being flattered, and solemnly stated that he would never let it suffer any harm.

After the two chatted for a while, Kushida Kikyo finally started to talk about business.

"How are you thinking about helping me and Horikita-san become friends?"

"I've got some ideas, but I need to discuss the specific implementation with Kushida-san." Hashima Hikaru touched his chin and took out his notebook.

"Ohhhh, what is it?"

Seeing Hashima Hikaru holding a pen and looking serious, Kushida felt secretly happy.

This tool man was really not a wrong choice.

"I have a simple idea. Let's see if Kushida-san thinks it's suitable." Hashima Hikaru wrote down his plan in his notebook.

"Kushida-san has already organized a study session, so some of the students must know that you and Horikita-san are working hard for the class, right?"

"Uh-huh."

"So, why not follow up on the study session? For example, after a study session, Kushida-san could take the initiative to suggest a dinner with everyone, and then bring Horikita-san along, strengthening your relationship in the process."

After coming up with this idea, Hashima Hikaru carefully observed the expression of Kushida Kikyo. This plan was of course nonsense. He had met Horikita Suzune several times and knew very well that the black-haired girl was not the type to participate in private group activities.

But if you first propose a less feasible plan here, and then come up with the real plan after it is rejected, Kikyo Kushida will feel that you are more attentive.

"I've tried this method, but it doesn't work," Kushida Kikyo sighed, somewhat frustrated. "I've invited Horikita-san several times, but she leaves immediately after the study session. She's not willing to stay with us any longer."

"...I see."

Hashima Hikaru nodded. After a moment's silence, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said as if he had suddenly realized something: "There is another way that may help you and Horikita get closer."

"any solution?"

"Judging from the fact that Horikita-san agreed to attend the study session you, Kushida-san, organized, I think she's someone who's willing to help the class. If you want to get closer to her, it's probably best to start by helping the class."

The boy began to explain his thoughts to Kushida: "So we can focus on the midterm exams coming next month."

"Midterm exam?" The short-haired girl blinked her beautiful eyes, seemingly not understanding what he meant.

"Kushida-san could organize a subject assessment with Horikita-san," Hikaru Hashima wrote down his thoughts in his notebook. "Everyone in the class would be involved. We'd analyze everyone's strengths and weaknesses. Report cards sometimes don't reflect everyone's true abilities, and people often make mistakes during exams, so this information would be valuable."

"And in the process of gathering information, Kushida-san can work with Horikita-san, not only deepening his understanding of the other students, but also taking this opportunity to get closer to Horikita-san."

"what do you think?"

"this..."

After hearing this plan, Kushida Kikyo fell into deep thought.

Although she is the little angel in the class and can talk to everyone, she actually doesn't care about her classmates' grades. She organizes study sessions just to create an image of herself as helpful.

From the moment the hidden rules of this school were revealed to the end of the first month, the girl had actually been completely disappointed with Class D and didn't believe that these guys could be promoted to Class A.

All her current actions were just to get closer to Horikita Suzune, all for the sake of that "secret" related to herself.

But this guy's attitude has been very cold so far. If I invite her to collect the subject preferences of her classmates, will she really agree?

"But Horikita-san usually likes to be alone and leaves immediately after study sessions. Will she really agree?"

Seeing the hesitant expression of Kikyo Kushida, Mitsuru Hashima smiled slightly in his heart, you don't have to worry about this, I will get her to agree.

"That's why we're proposing a midterm exam. Kushida-san can use this line of thought to persuade Horikita-san. I'm sure she'll agree. After all, didn't she agree last time? If there's a first time, there's bound to be a second time."

"Well..."

Kikyo Kushida reviewed in her mind the various behaviors of the woman who had attended the study sessions during this period, and thought it would be okay to give it a try.

Chapter 73: The Same Trick Again

In dormitory No. 301, Hashima Hikaru was waiting for a reply from the short-haired girl.

After about ten seconds, an expression of approval finally appeared on Kushida's pretty face. She said to Hashima Hikaru, "I think it's a great idea. If I can convince Horikita to work with me, we can definitely get along well."

"Thank you, Hashima-san."

"No need to thank me. I hope Kushida-san and Horikita-san can become good friends after this plan is completed."

"Yeah, I'll try my best." The short-haired girl nodded heavily.

"Then I'm looking forward to hearing good news from Kushida-san," Hashima Hikaru said softly, gazing at the smile on Kushida's face. "I believe you can definitely achieve your goal."

"Well, I'm really sorry to bother you, Hashima-san, today. You can help me with some advice again."

"It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning."

"It's getting late now, so I'll be leaving first. I'll contact Hashima-san via cell phone if there's any progress on the plan."

After sorting out his plan in his mind, Kushida pretended to glance at the time and stood up to leave.

"Well, I'll walk Kushida-san to the elevator."

Acting requires full performance. Although Hashima Hikaru still has no feelings for Kushida Kikyo at the moment, some small details still need to be carefully grasped so that she cannot see any clues.

"Goodbye, Hashima-san."

After sending Kikyo Kushida to her location, Hikaru Hashima turned around and returned to his dormitory.

He glanced at his system panel. After helping her come up with a plan to build closer ties for the second time, the share price of [Kushita Kikyo Stock] remained unchanged. Even though this guy had dispelled his doubts about him, he still wouldn't fall for the empty promises.

"Let's wait and see when we can achieve a major breakthrough."

Hashima Hikaru stared at the stock silently. The few times he had contact with Kushida Kikyo really made him tired. Although the initial stock price was the same as that of Ichinose's Cheng, this guy was obviously more troublesome.

"Once I get the stock price up to my satisfaction, I'll cash out a ton, then go out to dinner with Horikita Suzune in front of you and see if your stock price can hit the lower limit!"

After cleaning up the room, the boy began the crucial two-line operation and clicked on Horikita Suzune's chat page.

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

At this moment, Horikita Suzune, who was staying in her room, had a layer of frost on her pretty face after seeing this message. Ever since she agreed to this guy's request last time, she had to patiently attend study sessions and had to deal with Kushida Kikyo's occasional conversations. She was really tired.

So at first, Horikita Suzune didn't want to reply to his message.

But a minute later, the familiar screenshot was sent. In order not to disappoint her brother, Horikita Suzune had to suppress her irritation and began to type a reply to Hashima Hikaru's message.

Horikita Suzune: What's going on this time, Hashima-san?

Hikaru Hashima: Horikita, have you gained anything from organizing study sessions during this period?

Horikita Suzune: What do you want to say? I'm not interested in chatting with you.

Hashima Hikaru: Haha, okay, tomorrow Kushida-san will invite you to collect information about the academic abilities of your classmates, such as which subjects they are good at and which subjects they are not good at. I hope you can agree to her request.

Horikita Suzune: Why?

Hashima Hikaru: Because I am fulfilling the agreement with Horikita-senpai. Since I promised to help you, it is impossible for me to do nothing. This is a good opportunity.

Hashima Hikaru: Didn't you say your goal was to be in Class A? Understanding everyone's subject preferences will help you better understand the overall strength of the class and lead them better in the future.

Horikita Suzune: What good will this do for you? We should be competitors, right?

Horikita Suzune believes that the boy who has been promoted to Class A is the one she must defeat in the future.

Hashima Hikaru: Yes, but I think you won’t be able to compete with me on the same stage until you correct your character weaknesses. This is not to look down on you, but my honest opinion.

"..."

After seeing this line of words, the girl's face suddenly changed, and the fingers pressing on the screen began to press harder unconsciously. This guy actually dared to look down on her like this!

Hashima Hikaru: Only the weak engage in verbal arguments. If you want to prove your ability to Horikita-senpai, then work hard and move forward.

Horikita Suzune's chest heaved violently with anger, and after about ten seconds, she typed a reply.

Horikita Suzune: I understand. I will collect this information, but don't try to find out anything from me.

Hikaru Hashima: Don't worry, I'm not interested in your class's intelligence. If you can do it, all the gains will be yours.

-------

The next morning, as soon as Kushida Kikyo entered the classroom, she went straight to Horikita Suzune's desk.

"Horikita-san, I have something to tell you."

Seeing the anxious look on Kushida's face, Horikita Suzune naturally understood what was going on, so she nodded slightly to her.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"The midterm exams are next month. I hope Horikita can work with me to collect information about the students' academic abilities, understand their true performance, and then organize study activities so that everyone can improve their grades."

Horikita Suzune glanced at the short-haired girl with an expectant look on her face, wondering what her relationship with Hashima Hikaru was and why she always had to contact him.

"...Okay, I agree. Come find me when the action begins."

The black-haired girl nodded. Since she was going to carry out this plan, she had to do it perfectly.

When she heard the other party agree, a happy smile instantly appeared on Kushida Kikyo's face.

Just as Hashima said, once there is a first time, there will be a second time. It went incredibly smoothly.

At this moment, in the classroom of Class A of the first year, Mitsuru Hashima was sitting in his seat, holding a book and pretending to be busy, but his eyes were always on his system panel.

After a few minutes, the familiar system prompt sound rang in my ears.

Horikita Suzune agreed to Kushida Kikyo's request. She thinks you are really useful. Kushida Kikyo's stock price rose by 10 points and is currently 40.

"It's a bit troublesome to have to go through so much trouble every time to raise the stock price, but it's good that it can be raised smoothly."

Hashima Hikaru looked at the price of [Kushita Kikyo stock] which had risen to 40. He had bought all the stocks in this stock and currently held 5000 shares. After the price increased a little more, he could go all in and sell all the shares.

Chapter 74: Wanting to Become a Swimming Master

After a happy day of successful class promotion, on May 5nd, Mitsuru Hashima got up earlier than before, because today was the 2th day after using the [Sports Enhancer], and his physical strength could finally change.

"call!"

After completing the exercise task according to the habit he had developed during this period, Hikaru Hashima stood in the corner of the playground and stared at his system panel. Sweat slid down his chin to his chest, soaking a large area of ​​his short-sleeves.

[Current exercise time: 60 minutes.]

[Today's exercise goal has been completed and data statistics are complete. ]
