Oreki Houtarou's Strength-First Classroom

Because the correct thing to say is to ask you to help me again, not to ask you to continue to help me.

In other words, you have acquiesced that when you are in trouble and find that you can't solve it, you will seek help from Oreki-san.

There is only one such person that Ichinose knows, and that is family.

Many people believe that family members are creatures that make trouble for each other.

However, you will also feel bound in the process.

Because life is full of these trivial things, but because of the connection between family members, everyone is connected together.

so.

Horikita-san, do you know what you are expressing with your words and your response?

This made Ichinose almost doubt what he was doing for a moment.

I doubt that I have arrived at the scene of proposal and acceptance.

And they didn't seem to notice it yet.

"Hug, I'm sorry -" Ichinose decided to break the sweet atmosphere, "I feel like I've disturbed you two."

"No—" Suzune realized that Ichinose was still there.

Chapter 132 Ichinose: If someone must be hurt, then I want it to be me!

Ichinose is still at the scene.

And the sense of presence finally came out.

She felt like an audience just now.

But she knew she was invited.

"Ugh...Actually, I was invited here by Oreki-san. After all, Horikita-san and I have never spoken." Ichinose said.

"But. As long as I can do it, I will do anything."

She expressed her determination. "So if there is any place where I can help, you can give me your orders as much as possible."

"That's it, thank you——" Horikita is a very stubborn person.

What was very strange was that even though he had already shut himself off just now, when he held Oreki-san's hand and received comfort from him, he felt incredibly calm.

So Horikita found that he could listen to them calmly.

And also expressed his gratitude.

When he said thank you, even Ichinose was surprised.

She must have heard people say that Horikita-san is a very difficult person to get along with, but now Horikita-san appears to be reasonable.

Is this rumor wrong? On the way here, Oreki-san even gave her some psychological counseling, telling her that she might be rejected or scolded by Horikita-san.

And Ichinose also felt that he might be aggrieved.

But what now?

Horikita-san seems to be easy to get along with.

In other words, Horikita-san has really calmed down.

Horikita Suzune said,

"I also thought about the solution before going to the classroom in the morning."

"Ignore the rumors and don't respond, then other people will find it boring and ignore the rumors themselves, so as long as you use time as a weapon, the rumors will eventually dissipate."

This is not just talk, she has dealt with it this way in the past.

Because she was not gregarious or unwilling to waste study time doing chores, she was a lonely person in the past. Then there were some classmates who wanted to spread bad words about her deliberately.

So she has had this experience before.

Then her plan was to ignore it.

Because he didn't get a response from her, these bad words gradually disappeared.

but.

This refers to the normal state.

The students in this school are abnormal and have been specially selected, and some outrageous people may not be encountered in ordinary schools.

So her plan won't work with this rumor.

In other words, she has not been subject to this type of rumors in the past.

As a younger sister, she has always followed the example of her outstanding brother and wants to work hard, but she is also aware of her own level of strength, so all she can do is not to cause any more trouble to the other party.

so.

This is her weakness.

So, the classmates in the class today were too much and she couldn't control herself at all.

He immediately ran away.

And such consequences will only make the rumors worse and have a negative impact.

Thinking of this, Horikita fell silent for a moment.

In other words, after thinking about it, I realized that I really did a bad job in this rumor incident.

Shake, run away, and shut down.

"..." It's indeed not shameful.

"It seems like you have calmed down," Oreki-san said. "Then let's consider the solution."

"The most important thing about rumors is the central figure in the rumor." Oreki said, "You can use part of your influence to spread it, and you can also use part of your influence to suppress it. At the same time, as the central figure, It’s time to respond.”

"It seems like this is really a lot of things..." Ichinose clapped his hands gently. "Then Horikita-san, please rest first today."

Horikita had no objection. Although she wanted to put it to use now, it was obvious that she still couldn't face those classmates immediately and stabilize her emotions. If she could, she wouldn't escape from there.

Although he has calmed down incredibly now.

but.

You also have to think about specific solutions.

"I'm sorry for interrupting your class time. You also missed class."

Oreki and Ichinose went downstairs together and said to Ichinose.

It's no longer lunch break.

It was two o'clock in the afternoon, and classes had already started in school. Regardless of whether Horikita took leave or was truant, he and Ichinose Honami would definitely be judged as truants.

And Oreki-san knew that Archangel Ichinose was a good student with perfect attendance.

"No, it doesn't matter. If I can be useful, that's enough." Ichinose shook his head gently. This girl who always seemed optimistic said comforting words, "And Horikita-san seems to have already Cheer up."

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Oreki felt that Ichinose seemed to be deliberately rejecting the topic of absenteeism.

Then it turns into trying very hard to express kindness.

"Probably, I hope she can make some progress." Oreki-san said.

"Then I will advise the students in Class B today not to discuss this topic again," Ichinose said.

"That is to say, the plan for this incident is still to let influential people influence others and suppress this topic... hmm."

"It's just that this is the plan I came up with. As for Oreki-san, what was the original plan? Did you ask Kushida-san to take action?"

Ichinose held the small notebook and exposed his face from the upper edge of the notebook, feeling a little curious.

"Yes." Oreki-san nodded. "She may not be too willing, but she does need her channels to act."

"Not your channel, Ichinose."

"Um?"

Archangel Ichinose blinked slightly.

"Because it will destroy interpersonal relationships." Oreki-san said. "The price is too high. So we have to let Kushida do it."

? ?

What can only Kushida do?

So Ichinose listened carefully.

Oreki-san said,

"Because what I did was to ask Kushida to deliberately spread some more extreme rumors."

"For example, a large number of second- and third-year seniors are selling and first-year boys are buying, etc. Then the school and the student union have to pay attention to it, and then use their power to combat the rumors, and then follow Horikita. Aren’t the rumors on the side also suppressed?”

Well.

Ichinose choked for a moment, because this plan would indeed prevent any more rumors.

It almost put out the small flames.

but.

This is very rude to the second and third grade seniors and the first grade boys.

In other words, for the sake of Horikita-san, do you not care whether you might accidentally injure someone else?

And Kushida-san might not be willing, because that’s for sure.

Because people with better interpersonal relationships can be traced back to the source.

Even though she didn't trace it back, some mistakes occurred afterwards, and those friends whom Kushida asked to spread the rumors might also have thoughts about her.

So this is a rumor that he wants to cut off his interpersonal relationships.

but.

Oreki-san judged that he could do this at the beginning, which means that the relationship between Kushida-san and him has been so good that it doesn't matter even if he takes the blame.

Oreki-san is really popular.

Ichinose sighed in his heart.

At the same time, I also feel that this method is too good to let her do it.

It's not that I don't want to help, but this kind of behavior is very rude. It protects Horikita-san, but hurts many people.

She doesn't like hurting others.

If someone must be hurt, then she wants that person to be hurt.

…

And things were handled quickly.

In the evening, Oreki-san and Ichinose went to meet Horikita-san again.

And she had recovered enough to go out with them to have tea and discuss things.

in this way.

the next day.

Just as planned, Suzune Horikita came to school.

Although the rumors this time have changed, when they spread, they were not the same as the original versions.

But the basic core is that Horikita Suzune is the sister of the student council president.

And as long as you know this, then... you can catch it and use it as a weapon to attack.

but.

None of the students in Oreki's class took advantage of this to attack Horikita Suzune.

Rather, everyone is confident, because Oreki-san often has private meetings with Horikita-san.

so.

Attacking Horikita Suzune is basically equivalent to offending Oreki-san.
