Hachiman please tone down your Inner Thoughts Chapter 13 013: Someone Asked the Same Question as You

After taking the photo of Horikita Suzune, Hachiman quickly descended from the school building's rooftop.

A ssage from a certain person had already arrived.

After all, he had just abruptly cut off the call with him.

[Horikita Manabu: So, what is it you want to do? Or rather, do you want to owe you a favor?]

Horikita Manabu's typing speed was very fast.

Clearly, to beco the Student Council President of this school, he was also extrely intelligent. He quickly understood the reason behind Hikigaya Hachiman's previous call.

Originally, when Horikita Manabu discovered a freshman had obtained his number and sent him a ssage, he had intended to test him.

However, the other party had directly laid out the transaction process between him and his sister, Horikita Suzune, and even reduced the fee his foolish sister needed to pay.

If he wanted to be strict about it, it would have been acceptable for the price of Suzune buying the answer not to end at 200,000 points.

But Hachiman chose to settle at 200,000 and ended the transaction there.

This prevented his sister from hurting too much of her pride, while simultaneously making the point total high enough to make her realize the school's unique nature. It was enough to serve as his sister's first lesson upon entering this school.

Horikita Manabu understood all of this.

The other party wanted him to owe a favor.

Of course, more likely, the boy was staying true to his original goal: hoping to obtain the student roster of the entire school from him, or asking him for information about a specific student.

[Horikita Manabu: Who told you that Horikita Suzune is my sister?]

[Hikigaya Hachiman: While one could infer certain things simply by relying on surnas and appearance, I didn't use that channel. Besides, there are already others who suspect as much.]

[Horikita Manabu: It doesn't matter. Although Suzune's enrollnt puts in a sowhat passive position, I can handle it.]

Is that so?

Hachiman perceived almost instantly that the information about his sister being assigned to Class D could beco a weapon for competitors to attack him, yet Manabu was fully confident in catching that blow.

He truly was an excellent Student Council President.

And a massive "Siscon."

Because it could be understood that as long as soone ntioned Horikita Suzune was his sister, he would publicly acknowledge the sibling relationship. Even if it led to a disadvantage, he was incapable of disowning her.

[Hikigaya Hachiman: Also, I have a few questions I'd like to consult you on for free.]

[Horikita Manabu: You didn't have this attitude when you were selling answers to Suzune.]

[Horikita Manabu: Speak. What do you want to ask?]

[Hikigaya Hachiman: Although the horoom teacher said that as long as you have points, you can buy or sell anything and many things have a clear price, I want to ask: how many points are required to change a horoom teacher?]

[Horikita Manabu: ...]

This ti, Horikita Manabu's reply didn't co through as quickly.

Because even he had to organize his wording regarding Hachiman's question.

Finally.

[Horikita Manabu: A second-year student once asked the sa question.]

[Hikigaya Hachiman: Oh?]

[Horikita Manabu: It was one of your senpai.]

One of his seniors.

Were there any famous female senpais in the second year?

Hachiman thought quickly. In the original story, there were really only two nad female seniors in the second year. One was Asahina Nazuna, the childhood friend of Vice President Nagumo Miyabi.

The other was the female version of Koenji, the "Beautiful Older Sister" Kiryuin Fuka.

[Hikigaya Hachiman: Was it Asahina-senpai?]

[Horikita Manabu: You even know information about the second-year students, but it wasn't her.]

I see.

Then it was Kiryuin-senpai.

So...

In the original story, Kiryuin-senpai was originally in Class A, but she always had a personality like Koenji's; she was called "Beautiful Older Sister" in the original.

She had no interest in class glory or competition, fighting only for herself. Being extrely self-centered, she naturally couldn't serve as a combat force for the original Class A. Ultimately, under the leadership of the class representative Kiriyama, the class was defeated by Nagumo and had now beco Second-year Class B. 2

And she maintained an indifferent attitude toward it.

But looking at it now, her letting things go to waste didn't seem to be entirely at her own whim.

[Horikita Manabu: While points can indeed be used as money and many things have a clear price, there exists another institution in this school besides the Student Council: the Board of Directors. Requests such as involving the replacent of a teacher—like swapping a teacher you dislike for another—cannot be traded directly using points. It exceeds the scope of the system.]

[Horikita Manabu: However, it is not completely impossible. One can apply to the Chairman. If he approves, it is possible to achieve. Our school's Chairman is a very tolerant person.]

But this also ant the Chairman's power was very large.

In the original story, after Chairman Sakayanagi was frad and taken away, the Acting Chairman Tsukishiro arranged by Ayanokouji's father interfered with the special exams repeatedly, even resorting to blatant cheating, arranging for White Room students to enroll, and personally using violence against examinees during tests. His power was indeed imnse.

If an honest and tolerant person is the Chairman with such power, they might tolerate more flawed students and give them more opportunities. But if a bad person takes office with that authority, it would only be a disaster for everyone else.

Therefore, it was best for the students if Chairman Sakayanagi could stay at the school forever.

But it was pointless to think about that now.

[Hikigaya Hachiman: I have two requests. One is the one I ssaged you earlier: I want to check if there is a student nad Hikigaya Komachi among all the students in the school.]

As soon as Hachiman's ssage was sent, Horikita Manabu replied instantly.

[Horikita Manabu: No.]

It seed he had indeed morized the roster of the entire school. That's why he could reply in a second.

Still, Hachiman wanted to be a bit more certain.

[Hikigaya Hachiman: Do the faculty and staff allow minors to enter for part-ti jobs?]

[Horikita Manabu: Not allowed. Even students aren't allowed to work part-ti. Students should just do their duty as students; part-ti work does not exist.]

I see.

Then it could also be ruled out that his sister Komachi had transmigrated like him and beco a staff mber in the shopping district or sothing.

So, the facts proved that it was impossible for Komachi to appear here at Advanced Nurturing High.

Nice.

In that case, if only he had transmigrated, then this "Elite" world could serve as a place for him to gain experience toward his future goal of becoming a house husband.

After all, there were so many girls here of various types and personalities—normal ones and problematic ones.

If he could gain experience from interacting with them, he would likely be able to easily handle any kind of girl in the future.

This also gave him a great chance to find soone willing to accept his wish to be a house husband, and soone with the ability to support him and, by extension, help take care of Komachi. This person could be Yukinoshita or soone else.

The experience would cover all bases.

It was sowhat despicable to do this, but he didn't want his sister to see it.

But now that he knew his sister wasn't here, he could completely let himself go.

However, since he had accepted being "kept"—even if it was the support of the entire Class B—Hikigaya-kun would still put in a bit of effort for Class B.

So.

[Hikigaya Hachiman: Then my other request is...]

Hachiman began to type. Originally, contacting Horikita Suzune was partly just to get leverage for Horikita Manabu's help, and now that task was more than accomplished.

On the other hand, it was to satisfy the twisted sense of "striking at Chabashira-sensei" held by his own horoom teacher, Hoshinomiya-sensei.

So after taking the photos of Horikita and Chabashira, he sent them to Hoshinomiya-sensei first. Kill her task first.

However, for Class B, the most stable move would still be changing the horoom teacher. Unfortunately, it wasn't possible at the mont.

But if Hoshinomiya did sothing truly bottomless, he could use that to apply to Chairman Sakayanagi for a change of teacher.

After all, just as Horikita Manabu said, Chairman Sakayanagi was a very tolerant person; in the original story, he even withstood the pressure regarding the protagonist Ayanokouji's enrollnt and withdrawal.

So.

Hoshinomiya-sensei, please hit rock bottom sooner. Or Chairman Sakayanagi, don't get ousted from power too early.

And so.

An ordinary Class B student of Advanced Nurturing High was worrying about problems only adults usually worry about.

anwhile...

On the school building's rooftop.

Horikita "..."

Chabashira "..."

The big and little Horikitas were both in silence.
