“It is clear that even if you propose to establish an equal cooperation with Housen, you will be rejected. I think it might be the same if Horikita-senpai met and spoke in person. Then how about going to
underground with me?”
“Are you going to negotiate Nanase-san? But no other child would follow without Housen-kun?”
“Yes. It's just because I didn't mention my name as leader.” Here, Nanase made an unexpected statement.
“I decided that Housen's way of thinking could not be designed in the future. Before dangerous thinking spread widely, this was a difficult plan, but I wish I could be the leader in first year D class. And as a starting point, I want to have a relationship with second year D class Horikita-senpai.”
Of course, Horikita, and I had no idea that such a statement would be made.
That said, Housen will be dropped and Tsubasa Nanase becomes the leader in first year D class. If this materialized, the equal cooperation Horikita wanted would be realized all at once.
“We don't have enough materials to judge which Nanase or Housen is the right leader. But I can say one thing, we don't have much time.”
A special exam that is approaching its time. Not enough time to compete for leadership.
“Many of my classmates disagreed with Housen-kun's way of doing things. In fact, when I spoke the same thing yesterday and today, I could ask seven students to work
same.”
“Is it not just because students with low academic ability?”
“Yes. There are about three students who have B level or more who can negotiate with Me.”
“...I understand.”
Horikita thought a little. Although it was not perfect for the three people, if there was a little more than here, it might not be a bad result to form a cooperative relationship with Nanase.
“Wouldn't it be troublesome if Housen-kun finds out?”
“It's a big deal, of course. So I'll keep everything from now until the day before the special exam, which is the deadline for choosing a partner. He won't realize if we sign up at the last minute.”
“But, then it will be difficult to get students who can study by your side.”
A student who has high academic ability wants personal points to be irreversible.
“We will make up for it. Students who are not good at studying can avoid a three-month sentence by asking Horikita-senpai to help them. In other words, the points are floating. Even if you collect 200,000 points,
you will get a change. I don't think we can reach 500,000 points per person, but I think it's still within reach.”
The point is they clean their own pockets.
Initially, we attract talented students by awarding points, but a strategy in which lower-grade students from first-year D classes will attract them into their group.
“This will not cause any problems for Horikita-senpai. Of course, after knowing this fact, Housen will be angry, but I will take all responsibility to ensure that the children who cooperate are not in danger.
What say?”
“It... Even if you say you're going to be the leader, I think it's a suggestion that makes your load too big.”
“I'm fine. I don't want to lose faith and the opportunity to get Horikita-senpai.” help
If a classmate can be saved, is it worth it.
“Even if I am not recognized as a leader, this special test will help Horikita-senpai.”
If you look at short-term gains, the idea of Nanase isn't bad. How did Horikita respond to this?
“It's pretty obvious. I want to cooperate with first year D class.”
“So, that's a good idea, right?”
“No. I can't take your advice.”
“But in addition to this way..”
“The problem with first year D class can be solved by making Housen-kun on your side. You don't want to be a leader, but you don't like how he does it, do you? Then, if Housen-kun says free
with him, there are many students who will follow him?”
“That, yes, I think it's true.”
“And if Housen and you are involved in a conflict, first year D class will split into two, instead of being united. I
can't let you do that. So I can you help me change his mind.”
Apparently, Horikita also looked through the conversation with Nanase. If Housen is caught, all the problems will be solved.
“That's a dangerous bet, If you fail, you probably won't have any cooperation between class D first year and class D second year in the future.”
“I'm ready... Nope, no. I think there's a chance for us to work together. Not just me, but I'm sure Housen thought the same thing.”
“Although you were treated badly over the phone?”
“I'll take it as the opposite of my goodwill. So far.”
Nanase agreed, probably because she understood what Horikita wanted to say.
“Today, I spent some time with Horikita-senpai and Ayanokouji-senpai. Because I haven't misread.”
“What do you mean? Did I reject your idea?”
“No, I have not been rejected. My ideas and Horikita-senpai were consistent from the beginning.”
“It... You mean you were also thinking of persuading him?”
“Ya.”
Apparently, Nanase's idea that she's a leader is a fake bet.
“As Horikita-senpai said earlier, we don't have much time, so we can't move forward if we don't have the opportunity to negotiate even if we're a little too aggressive. Please allow me to arrange a second meeting? I will definitely take Housen-kun to Horikita-senpai on Sunday the day after tomorrow.”
The new idea did not seem to be a fake, so Nanase bowed and asked Horikita to do it.
When Sunday comes, the amount of time left will naturally decrease.
Horikita looked at me with a confirmation meaning.
If I nod with that thought, I will lose Horikita's doubt.
“I believe you, I will look forward to meeting Housen-kun on Sunday the day after tomorrow.”
“Ya. But I want to avoid a flashy place. Depending on the situation, it is possible to take immoral actions.”
“Well, maybe karaoke is a great place for that. If Housen-kun wants, we can do it at night.”
It is true that the visible risk will be greatly reduced
during Sunday night.
“Good. I'll let you know by then.”
As the direction of the conversation began to end, Horikita's phone rang. After reading the message, Horikita sighed.
“What's up?”
“It's time for the study group. I don't think it goes without me.” I saw the ternata already at 05:30.
“It's a good deal, can I ask you to take care of the rest.”
“Good.”
Horikita nodded lightly at Nanase and quickly left to join the classmate study group. Horikita, who had to attend the entire class, had to move left and right.
“Horikita-senpai really busy.”
“After all it is part of his work to unify the class.”
“I hope I can also be someone as great as him, next year.”.
“Horikita did not ask you in detail about this, but how will you convince Housen?”
“It... I don't mind answering but only if, if you can tell me about yourself.”
“About Me?”
This is the time when the sun begins to set outside and the world begins to shine orange.
“Horikita-senpai is the leader of your class. But Ayanokouji-senpai is different, right?”
Indeed, Nanase doesn't know if it's appropriate for me to be here. If I say I'm just forced to follow her, I'll end up with a shut up.
“What.... what kind of person are you, senpai?”
I did not reply, Nanase put her hand on the table and showed her the profile. It was also seen as a defense to prevent others from reading facial and mouth movements.
“Will you tell me?”
“It seems that what you want to know is not about his relationship(Horikita) with me.”
Something is different. He asked what kind of person I was.
“Yes. I think Ayanokouji-senpai is a bad and dirty person.”
It was a bold and powerful speech. Then, contrary to those words, Nanase rolled her eyes looking straight, and without hesitation. I don't know what I have until it's seen like that. We've been in touch with little information, such as information that I can personally feel. I don't remember being called evil, even though it was a compatibility issue. Maybe Nanase Tsubasa is the person on the other side of the world I'm looking for.
There's reason to think so. Even if the dropout is the most important command, it is not
that'll do. I sure had to get in close contact and observe someone named Ayanokouji Kiyotaka. I think so. I want to prove that I excel, not just leave school. No, I can't convince him otherwise.
If I had to let someone named Ayanokouji Kiyotaka dropout, I'd think so. But to the same White Room students, the direction seemed different.
“As far as I can see, you look like an ordinary human being, Ayanokouji-senpai.”
“So, does that mean you see me as someone unusual?”
“...No. gabe. Not so.”
Nanase denied it, but was that true? Nanase and I met each other four times for a while, but she kept having strange gazes all the time. I felt like I was about to say which side Nanase was on, but her response disappeared.
“Sorry I forgot. What matters now is
whether we can cooperate with each other.”
Stand with each other and leave the library. When we were about to split up, I remembered what I wanted to ask Nanase.
“By the way, Nanase previously said when you talked about personal points that were not transferred for three months, you said 240,000 points. Why that?”
When asked, Nanase's face was as usual, not floating as before.
“Why? I've just calculated that if I save the 800 grade points awarded after entering the school for three months, I'll just add 240,000 points.”.
Nanase looks weird. Apparently, the first year of the year has a different starting line than last year.
“Last year, the first class point given to us was 1,000.”
