"I already advised you all not to do this."
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka believed that under Hikigaya's manipulation, the matter would inevitably blow up. Before he could be branded on the list of criminals, he chose to turn into a state witness.
"Bullshit!"
"You were clearly one of us!!"
Ike Kanji's eyes were bloodshot. Knowing he couldn't clear his own na, he now only wanted to drag more people down with him, attempting to achieve a "safety in numbers" effect.
"No, I never agreed to your plan during the entire process.
I have evidence."
As Ayanokouji Kiyotaka spoke, he pulled a voice recorder from his pocket and pressed play. The conversation of Yamauchi's group from yesterday played out.
"You actually recorded it..."
Now, Yamauchi and the others were completely dumbfounded. They never would have imagined that the usually "slow-witted" and easy-to-order-around Ayanokouji Kiyotaka would possess such calculating depth.
"I only did this as a precaution."
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka had anticipated the consequences if the matter were exposed, so he had prepared an escape route for himself early on.
"Ayanokouji, since you already knew about their illegal behavior, why didn't you stop them or report it to the school?" Horikita Manabu stared sharply at the latter.
In his eyes, choosing to remain silent before the plan was implented and only jumping out to report it when the matter was about to be exposed made him a typical selfish villain!
"I'm very sorry. I'm at the bottom of the hierarchy in Class D and had no power to stop Yamauchi and the others.
At the sa ti, I was afraid and didn't dare report it to the school."
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka spoke nonsense with a straight face.
Horikita Manabu's gaze fell on the other's arm. With the exceptionally firm muscle lines, his martial arts-trained eyes naturally understood that the other's combat power was quite extraordinary.
'You're telling you were afraid? Who would believe that!'
On the other side, seeing that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka had prepared a series of backup moves and successfully removed his own responsibility, a trace of regret flashed across Hikigaya's face. It seed that his plan to conveniently get this "fake person" expelled could not be realized.
"Very good!
Ayanokouji returned to the right path in ti and successfully wiped out the criminal gang in one fell swoop!
I think the school should give him a comndation!"
Hikigaya's words were highly impactful. He imdiately characterized Yamauchi and the others as a "criminal gang."
At the sa ti, he put Ayanokouji Kiyotaka on the hot seat!
Everyone present looked at Ayanokouji Kiyotaka with eyes full of wariness and disgust. After all, no one wants to be recorded during daily chats and then have it used for a report!
"No, I was just..."
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's expression lost control for a mont, becoming quite distorted.
"Ayanokouji, you bastard traitor!"
"I'll kill you!!"
Losing their heads in anger, Yamauchi Haruki and Ike Kanji charged forward desperately, throwing caution to the wind, and began punching and kicking Ayanokouji Kiyotaka!
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka clenched his fists; his muscles were tense and full of power. If he were willing, he could KO these two in an instant with one punch each.
However, he still adhered to his policy of hiding his strength, so he chose to crouch down while protecting his head, passively taking the beating like a coward!
"Enough!"
Horikita Manabu really couldn't watch any longer. He originally held a shred of rcy, wanting to wait for them to "turn themselves in" to fight for leniency.
Now it seed these people hadn't reflected at all and were completely unworthy of sympathy!
Horikita Manabu couldn't help but step forward and deliver a kick, knocking Yamauchi Haruki and Ike Kanji to the ground respectively. He then had two boys from the Student Council seize them.
"President Horikita, do you need to help call the police?" Hikigaya asked with a helpful face.
Horikita Manabu was stunned.
'You're really going for the kill!'
"Sigh~ No need. Let's leave this matter to the school's security departnt." Horikita Manabu sighed helplessly.
"That's good then.
Staying in a school with criminals always makes feel a bit afraid."
Hikigaya's words successfully resonated with most of the girls at the scene. If you dare to peep in the girls' changing room today, will you dare to commit rape tomorrow?
With such a major incident, the originally scheduled open pool party was forced to be canceled.
"Why did it turn out like this..."
Hirata Yousuke looked despondently at Yamauchi Haruki, Ike Kanji, and Sotamura Hideo as they were led away by the Student Council. Without a doubt, the ending awaiting them was expulsion, and perhaps even criminal charges!
"Is there no way to settle this peacefully?"
Hirata Yousuke gritted his teeth, his expression gradually becoming hideous. As soon as these words ca out, the people around him cast looks of disbelief.
"Hirata-kun, there should be a limit to being a 'good person,' right?" Karuizawa Kei couldn't help but complain.
"Do you actually want to protect criminals?"
"Shut up!"
Hirata Yousuke suddenly lost control of his emotions and roared loudly at Karuizawa Kei.
"!!!"
Karuizawa Kei was startled into a shiver, her body swaying as she fell over.
Hikigaya reached out to support her, staring coldly at the other man.
"Hirata, why are you shouting so loud?"
"Hikigaya!!
It's all because of you!!!"
Hirata Yousuke glared at him with ferocious eyes.
"If it weren't for you taking the matter to the Student Council, Yamauchi and the others wouldn't have been caught!"
"Hey! What nonsense are you talking about?
They were the ones who committed the cri of peeping; why bla it on Hachi?" Hasebe Haruka spoke up loudly in rebuttal.
However, Hirata Yousuke just kept a dark face, ignoring her, and stared straight at Hikigaya. "You personally pushed three classmates to the brink of expulsion. Are you satisfied now?"
Hikigaya nodded righteously.
"Yeah~ cleaning up three piles of trash, I feel quite comfortable now."
After receiving his nonchalant answer, Hirata Yousuke's face turned red with anger. He lunged forward, grabbed Hikigaya's collar tightly with both hands, and pushed him hard against the wall!
"You bully!
What do you think of your classmates and the class?"
Hirata Yousuke's eyes were blood-red; he looked like he had completely entered a berserk state.
Hikigaya looked stunned, yet also showed a hint of pity.
From the other's nearly crazed eyes, he didn't see himself, but sothing else.
This guy didn't hate him, but rather a past he couldn't bear to look back on.
Hikigaya lowered the knee-strike he had originally intended to use as a counter-attack.
*Smack!* *Bang!*
Kamuro Masumi and Ibuki Mio suddenly attacked from both sides, each delivering a heavy elbow strike to Hirata Yousuke's waist!
"Urgh~"
Hirata Yousuke suffered a double critical hit and collapsed on the spot, curling up like a shrimp.
Yet compared to the physical pain, the pain in his heart was far greater.
"Why... everyone... must we always hurt each other..."
