Oreki Houtarou's Strength-First Classroom - Chapter 373
Sure enough, I had to refuse at first.
Think so.
Oreki-san went to the bathhouse.
Needs to be adjusted.
Today I just avoided Ichinose, and then asked Sakayanagi-san to pay attention, and even arranged for Kamuro-san to follow.
And even Karuizawa and the others noticed that he was wavering.
…
At the same time, he and Ichinose-san were still in the same school.
So I didn’t see you when I looked up, I just avoided it today, but I would encounter Honami Ichinose again in the future.
And she is a good person. If she avoids being discovered, she will probably feel that she has done something wrong.
Consider this.
So at this time, he decided to find someone for life counseling.
then.
Did you just call me out?
…
Ten o’clock in the morning.
After confirming that the bathhouse in the shopping district was reserved, the student council president Horikita Manabu arrived at the sauna room.
Don’t you think it’s a little strange to take a bath at this time? he asked.
Some students are also used to taking a shower in the morning. Oreki-san said.
Oreki knows this, as does Kushida-san. According to her, taking a shower first in the morning is very refreshing.
…
Eh.
Oreki-san lost interest when he thought of Kushida-san.
Because, he thought that Kushida-san could provide him with experience points when facing all the girls, but it turned out to be useless in front of Ichinose-san.
Oreki-san feels that there is no need to contact Kushida-san for the time being.
So, I received the urgent matter from you and rushed over.
result.
President Horikita pushed up his glasses, You just want to ask me about this?
It should be said that he is indeed Horikita’s brother. He came over after receiving the message and said the same thing as his sister.
When they took the ship test and asked Horikita-san to come out to intimidate Manabe and the others, Horikita Suzune said the same thing.
If it’s a dream and you don’t wake up, you can continue sleeping.
Then when you wake up, just forget about it completely.
And Horikita Manabu said.
Oreki-san was too embarrassed to tell Horikita-nii what happened to him.
So I expressed tactfully that I had an erotic dream last night, and when I woke up during the day, I met the heroine in the dream, and then I found that I would be shaken, or even subconsciously avoid her.
This is the trouble of childhood. Horikita Manabu said. But I don’t want Suzune to grow up so quickly.
Some things should be done after high school at least. Horikita Manabu said. It’s better to focus on studying when you’re studying.
Horikita-san seemed to have something on his mind.
?
?
Oreki-san was stunned.
Then he realized that Horikita-san might have misunderstood.
The heroine in his dream is not Horikita-san but Ichinose-san.
But if you say that, you will probably be targeted by Horikita-nii.
And he had just gained the authority to influence Horikita-san from the rumor incident involving Horikita-san.
And if I tell Horikita-nii now that I am shaken by another girl.
Then Horikita brother may reconsider his sister’s ownership.
Oreki-san doesn’t want his stable life in the future to have twists and turns.
Then, how can we get rid of the current shaky state of mind? Oreki-san said. It has affected ordinary contact. It is even impossible to look at the other person’s face.
… Horikita learned.
Let’s do some training. Horikita Manabu said. “Burn off any excess energy.”
“It could be in the form of exercise or it could be in the form of focusing on something else.”
I see.
Oreki-san then accepted it.
After all, this is the highest recommendation for students in this school, the student council president.
…
So, in the afternoon, Oreki-san went to the school library.
Although you can still exercise, it’s just that the members of the track and field club have lost their ideals before, so Oreki-san found another way.
Turn your attention to reading a book.
Beep!
student card.
I entered the library by swiping my student ID card.
The school’s library has five floors in total and has a rich collection of books.
But there was no book he particularly wanted to read, so he started from the first floor, starting from the bookshelf closest to him, and started moving books to put on the desk.
Then sit down.
Flip through.
When people concentrate, they will feel that time passes quickly. At the same time, after focusing, they will no longer think randomly.
At least, except when I read the first book, I thought about Ichinose-san, but by the third and fourth books, Oreki-san could only see the words on the page.
Kaka——
For a moment, the only sounds left here were books and the sound of turning pages.
My heart became incredibly quiet.
And in the usual place on the first floor, next to the thermos cup, a cute girl with straight silver hair has been paying attention to this place for a long time.
She first glanced at it from time to time.
Then he put down the book he was reading and looked over.
Then I took some photos.
finally.
When Oreki-san was opening the seventh book, she walked over with her legs wrapped in gray stockings.
Oreki-kun, what’s bothering you?
she asked. Show a sweet smile and make a nice voice.
Just like a close sister.
Why do you say that?
Oreki Houtaro put down the [Quantum Mechanics] in his hand.
Um……
Shiina seemed to be thinking about how to phrase her words, Are you reading a book?
Yes.
… Hiyori. No, reading is not like this. The way you were reading just now is very similar to Ibuki-san in my class.
Ibuki-kun doesn’t want to read, but treats reading as a task similar to collecting stamps.
And Oreki-san.
You seem to have become like this too.
Although I am reading a book, I am just looking at the words.
So, did you encounter any trouble? Hiyori-san said gently.
Hiyori-san is a literary girl.
like read.
However, because I was assigned to Class C, it was difficult to find like-minded people.
In the class, I am probably no friend.
However, she unexpectedly discovered that Oreki-san had similar interests to hers, so he was a book friend in her eyes.
And not just this relationship.
Oreki-san is still her employer.
The freshmen who had not yet entered school were packaged and sold to her.
Then she also collects his income of 100,000 points every month, so now that she sees that her employer is in trouble, she needs to take a look both publicly and privately.
So he showed such a sweet smile.
Is it troublesome…
Indeed. Since Hiyori was confirmed to be the smarter type, Oreki-san thought it would be okay to share his worries with him.
only.
Probably… Oreki-san was about to answer when he suddenly noticed a few Class B students at the entrance in front of him, swiping their student cards and entering the library.
The written exams are approaching at the end of the month, and students in all classes are also studying hard.
So those who have such a margin are those who have excellent grades and are not afraid of written examinations.
The students in Class B were also very motivated in this exam.
The incident involving Ichinose-san is over, and Class B has become more united.
So I also hope to get the reward of a 100-point class evaluation score for this exam.
In this way, we continue to hold study meetings in small groups.
Now, some students came to the library to continue their study sessions.
And Oreki-san looked over.
I found out they were a few acquaintances.
They are Kanzaki-san, the vice president of Class B, and Shibata-san, who is good at sports.
Then.
Sure enough, it was the girl with the beautiful golden-pink hair.
Honami Ichinose.
Ichinose was looking at his phone as if he was replying to someone’s message.
But Kanzaki-san seemed to have said something to her, and then Ichinose and the others paid attention to Oreki-san and the others.
