Chapter 209
“You are getting ever more creepy as the day passes over, Hikigaya-kun....”
Boss gave her and Suzune such huge points to make them work harder next time to cheat Ryuen.
And Kushida also thought about it, Hachiman's requirement to keep her true identity is to let her betray the class when necessary.
And she has been wondering regarding her future.
As a result, now is the time for her to betray Class C!
Promised two-week luxury trip.
Random POV
.....I spent last one surviving on a desert island, and my life was miserable.
Then a week after, when I thought I could really enjoy the trip.
As a result, got a surprise on the third day, I wanted to play Werewolf!
Now that killing is over, there is not much time left to go back to school.
3rd POV
Therefore, students are enjoying the life of free prostitution as much as possible.
After all, on a luxury ship, everything is paid for!
Of course, Hachiman is also like this.
In fact, he feels that people still need to give something and get something in return, so they can enjoy it thoroughly.
Rather than doing nothing.
In the cafe on Second floor, Hachiman watched students feed the seagulls with French fries through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
However, at this time, a bell rang from opposite side of booth.
This is Kushida’s cell phone.
Her mobile was placed on the table.
Hachiman looked at it strangely and found that caller was marked as Wang Meiyu.
Mii-chan is Kushida's best friend, and usually have a special status.
As a result, Kushida actually wrote down the full name of her best friend.
'....Obviously, this girl has made Kushida feel uncomfortable recently.'
That's why, Hachiman shouted even more loudly, “Kushida, your phone number!”
“Ah, I'll be here soon!”
A crisp voice came from the cashier, and after a while, a little angel with blond hair came over holding a tray with coffee.
"It's hard for you too." Hachiman sighed as he watched Kushida put down her things and immediately looked at phone.
Today, Kushida invited him to drink coffee because she wanted to express her gratitude to him for the huge number of points she obtained in this exam.
Because everything on the ship is free, she really wanted to return this huge favor....hehe~
Compared to Kushida, Suzune also received a huge amount of points, but she never thought of inviting him to dinner or going to the spa together.
It's so heartless.
However, the hardness of Suzune is no longer the same as when she entered school, which is a little reassuring.
Otherwise, there will be no flexibility at all, so you can only predict her plans or actions and then make....
This is using classmates as pieces.
But, Hachiman is not that extreme.
The reason why he said this to Kushida was that in less than 30 minutes here, she had already received five calls.
“No....” Kushida showed a cute expression.
“Mochi mochi.”
Then she picked up her phone and clamped it to her ear, and said in a sweet voice, "Ah, Mii-cha. ...It doesn't matter, I'm free now. ...Hmm, I see, I will help, OK, then I'll call you back later.”
Kushida gently pressed hangup button and threw it on the table.
There were no other students in cafe, so her expression suddenly darkened.
Voice also became colder.
"Tch, let me help her find opportunities to make into contact with Hirata.....She thinks Hirata is very nice, and probably likes him. But, you don't even want to think about Hirata's level, how could she be able to catch him?! So this kind of help is destined to fail, really a waste of my time, and she will definitely not give up once! Try for about 2 or three times, and then she will probably restrain herself, but will definitely continue to have a crush.....Eh, that's really troublesome....”
Sure enough, Kushida was a heart-warming little angel just a second ago, but now she has turned completely dark.
“Do you really like this perverted life?”
While listening to her complaints, Hachiman suddenly asked after she finally shut up.
“Eh....?” Kushida was slightly startled, “What's wrong?“
"....It's nothing, I just suddenly felt that your life is very hard,” Hachiman said softly, “getting worried about your mental health....”
Sudents in Class C are particularly miserable than when compared to other classes and have a lot of trouble with each other.
For example, Female A and B are friends on the surface, but secretly A hates some of B's behaviors.
'....I don’t want to show it, but I can’t help but want to talk.'
These are thoughts of Female A.
Even very high chances of B hating A in the first place....
So, just look for Kushida to talk crap.
2 of them went to Kushida separately and said bad things about each other.
It was like this when she was in junior high school, and at that time Kushida just couldn't stand the pressure.
So,.outpouring was revealed on Twitter and the class exploded.
She wants to be 'everyone's Kushida' and also acts as a 'close sister'.
Kushida was really tired. Even Hachiman feels uncomfortable with this kind of life just thinking about it.
“It will not happen again....” But Kushida just smiled sweetly, as if she felt a lot more relaxed, "But I didn't expect that Hikigaya-kun would be unexpectedly considerate of me...”
“I'm enjoying my life now.” Kushida put on a serious expression and said softly, “Everyone treats me as a friend and tells me their secrets. This makes me feel trusted and needed. It's very fulfilling....”
“Maybe....” Hachiman was noncommittal.
What he thought of was that, similar to Kushida, Ichinose from Class B was also of the same type and had a lot of friends.
Then she might be living a very hard life just like Kushida.
'Who can easily have problems, so Ichinose.....could it be possible that she is also a problem child?'

Kushida just drank the ship’s coffee for free.
She won't feel any heartache after drinking a few drinks.
Although Hikigaya-kun likes coffee, he cannot be a ruthless person who drinks 5 cups a day.
So, he passively listened to Kushida's nonsense for more than half an hour, and then left after confirming that pressure in her heart was not that much.
Because he received 2 text messages.
One belongs to Chabashira-sensei.
'I hope to meet you at the theater.'
The other one belongs to Kamuro Masumi from Class A.
As for Kamuro, it may have been Sakayanagi's instruction, but now that points have been obtained, she is no longer important.
In this way, Hachiman puts 2 things on scale.
'....Then, I quickly chose my teacher Chabashira-sensei....'
After all, Chabashira had an agreement with him to get 10 million if he succeeded in joining Class A, and now he was very close to this goal.
So, now is the time to harvest Chabashira-sensei’s points.
And when he arrived at the theater, the play was being performed like usual....
It's Shakespeare's Twelve Nights.
Olivia: Ah! Sir, I will not be so cruel. I can make a list of my beauty, list them clearly one by one, and put every detail in my will, for example: one, two pieces of moderately dark red lips; one, a pair of gray eyes, with eyelids; one, with a jade neck, a soft Yi, and so on. Were you ordered to come here to compliment me?
Viola: I understand what kind of person you are. You are too proud, but even though you are a devil, you are beautiful. My master loves you. ah! Such a kind of love, even if you are the most beautiful person in the world, you should repay him.
Olivia: How does he love me?
Viola: With adoration, lots of tears, groans of love, sighs of fire.
Duke: Oh, that's true, my heart is like a deer. well! When I first laid eyes on Olivia, I felt as if she had cleared the air. Then I became a deer; my passions pursued me forever like a ferocious and cruel hound.
Shakespeare's plays - Twelfth Night.
Hachiman also read this novel.
The Heroine and her twin (key point) brother were separated due to a storm, and then fell in love with the Duke, who loved Olivia.
So in order to win the favor of the duke, the heroine wanted to drive away her competitors.
So she disguised herself as a man and approached Olivia, hoping that she would change her mind and leave the Duke.
The heroine's plan was unexpectedly successful, and Olivia fell in love with someone else and abandoned the Duke to pursue the heroine.
But he happened to meet the heroine's twin brother, and they got married without knowing it.
So, brother took over Olivia, and the heroine and Duke lived happily together.
But obviously, not many people like this kind of story.
Why don't people watch any drama now?
Entire theater was empty, and there was only one person in the audience.
“I didn't expect you to like this kind of drama?” Hachiman sat down next to Chabashira Sae and gave her a strange look.
"I just want to find a place where I can talk."
Sae Chabashira looked cold, but Hachiman saw her somewhat complicated expression through the corner of the stage.
"What happened?" Hachiman asked with some confusion.
Because it stands to reason that class was now promoted to B, so she should give him a reward or something.
But something happened.
So, Hachiman sat down.
Chabashira opened her mouth slightly, and then explained reason for her change in mood.
“Yesterday, a man called the school and asked Ayanokoji Kiyotaka to drop out of school. This man's name - Ayanokoji Atsuomi.”

“???”
“Ayanokoji Kiyotaka.”
Chabashira paused, it seemed like a painful topic even for her, “He is a genius. What is shown now is the result of his deliberate concealment. In fact, there has always been an absolute strong person in Class C.”
“.....” Hachiman, who had even spoken to him once, even regarded him as a background character. 'I just thought he was a random guy, whose place I forcibly took from. In other words, apart from Koenji, is there anyone else cheating in the class?'
It's easy to do things with someone who cheats.
Other party also faces the threat of possibly dropping out of school.
Father has been able to contact the school, which shows that other party has a lot of background.
'Therefore, if I try to use Ayanokoji, I may get into trouble.....'
That’s why Chabashira-sensei had such an expression. Don't know whether to use it or not.
