Just when Hikigaya was prepared to honestly take a beating.
Unexpectedly, Chairman Sakayanagi shifted the conversation.
"I'm not dead yet."
Saying that.
Chairman Sakayanagi walked back to his seat and sat down.
In.
There was no way around it.
As a father.
He knew his daughter's character all too well.
Once she made a decision, no one could stop her.
Ever since she was a child, Sakayanagi Arisu had studied chess desperately just to meet Ayanokouji, and Chairman Sakayanagi had seen it all.
It was plain to see.
How persistent Sakayanagi Arisu could be when she fell in love with someone.
As long as she fell in love.
Sakayanagi Arisu would give everything for the other party, even if she had to wait for over a decade.
If he were to interfere rashly.
He feared Sakayanagi Arisu would hate him for a lifetime, or even become his enemy.
Unfortunately.
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka was truly a bit disappointing.
Who would have thought Ayanokouji would lose?
Although he mostly guessed that Tsukishiro might have done something behind the scenes, Ayanokouji didn't even have the intention to explain.
The two of them just missed each other like this.
"Sigh..."
Chairman Sakayanagi let out a faint sigh.
Originally, he thought highly of Ayanokouji; regardless of strength, the two families were at least a good match.
But Ayanokouji just had to be disappointing.
Who knew there would be an existence like Hikigaya.
To be able to conquer his proud daughter, it had to be said that Hikigaya still had some ability.
On the other side.
Hearing Chairman Sakayanagi's words, Hikigaya finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He should be considered to have passed, right?
Although Chairman Sakayanagi sounded a bit angry, this should be the normal emotion of a father.
If Komachi were dating a strange man.
Old man would probably take a knife and hack the other party to death; Chairman Sakayanagi's temper was already considered quite good.
"Sit down."
Only after Hikigaya sat tremblingly on the sofa did Chairman Sakayanagi say with a flat expression:
"Let's not talk about Arisu's matter for now; let's talk about you first. Do you have the confidence to rise to Class A?"
"Tentatively... I suppose I do."
Although he was certain, Hikigaya did not dare to guarantee it easily.
"What do you mean by 'suppose I do'? You either have it or you don't!"
Chairman Sakayanagi was somewhat annoyed.
No matter how he looked at it, he found Hikigaya a bit unpleasant.
"Forget it."
Chairman Sakayanagi adjusted his emotions and said:
"Since you have ideas, I won't say much more. You are still the only student in the history of the Advanced Nurturing High School who dared to lead classmates to resist the school authorities."
"Is that a compliment?"
Hikigaya's face was full of embarrassment.
"Humph, naive."
Sakayanagi Arisu snorted coldly and said crossly:
"If Tsukishiro hadn't had other goals, do you think you could have succeeded?"
Tsukishiro's target was Ayanokouji all along.
Otherwise, daring to lead a resistance and challenge the school's authority would have only resulted in being suppressed.
Even if they couldn't do anything openly.
Giving someone a hard time in secret would be too easy.
"Uh..."
Hikigaya's mouth twitched.
It seemed he had soured the relationship with Chairman Sakayanagi at their first meeting.
What should one do when they offend their father-in-law at the first meeting?
Waiting online, very urgent.
"Humph."
Chairman Sakayanagi was filled with anger just looking at him.
However.
Internally, he was still very appreciative.
No matter what.
This provided valuable reference value for the Advanced Nurturing High School.
"So then."
Chairman Sakayanagi said deeply: "In your eyes, what do you think of this school?"
"That..."
Hikigaya hesitated for a moment, then spoke in a tentative tone:
"Monthly allowance, and as long as you graduate from Class A, you can realize your dreams. It's simply the best school?"
"Hmm?"
Chairman Sakayanagi looked at him with cold eyes. Do you think you're being humorous?
Such a common answer.
If someone else had said it, he wouldn't think there was any problem, but coming from Hikigaya, he clearly didn't believe it.
"I want to hear the truth."
"Garbage school."
Hikigaya said expressionlessly. You were the one who told me to speak.
"You say this school is garbage?"
Chairman Sakayanagi immediately narrowed his eyes.
He felt even more displeased.
Although he was the one who told Hikigaya to speak, Hikigaya's words also hurt his feelings.
Obviously, it was Hikigaya's problem.
It was true that a leader asking for the truth was real, but it was also not a lie that if it hurt his feelings, he might turn around and slaughter the person.
Really hard to serve.
Hikigaya wanted to leave a bit.
"In order to respond to the increasingly severe international situation."
Chairman Sakayanagi said coldly: "The state established this Advanced Nurturing High School to cultivate more elite talents for society, yet you actually say this school is garbage?"
"Uh..."
Hikigaya sat on pins and needles and didn't really want to speak.
He felt that no matter what he said, Chairman Sakayanagi would get angry, so it was better not to speak.
"Speak."
"Uh..."
Unfortunately.
One must bow their head when under another's roof, not to mention the party was one of his fathers-in-law?
Hikigaya said in a weak voice:
"I feel that for the people standing at the top to manage the country like this, and then blame the people at the bottom for not working hard, there's somewhat of a problem."
At least in his eyes.
What the hell did this have to do with the increasingly severe international situation?
Everyone.
All desperately chased the opportunity for free career choice in Class A.
In other words.
If they couldn't rise to Class A, most people knew they had no possibility of realizing their dreams, and even getting a job might become a problem.
This had already become a problem.
If working hard could yield corresponding rewards.
Who wouldn't be willing to work hard?
Unfortunately, for things with no reward, who would still be willing to do them?
"Humph, naive."
Chairman Sakayanagi snorted coldly.
As expected, he was angry again.
If everything was as simple as Hikigaya thought, they wouldn't be so troubled.
It was like.
If things couldn't be done, blame it on not giving enough money?
But if even the money was there, what would there be to work for, and what would they be needed for?
Children's talk is just naive.
Chairman Sakayanagi really found him more unpleasant the more he looked at him.
"Humph."
After a cold snort, Chairman Sakayanagi said with some disdain:
"Fine, get out. I'm telling you, if you dare to let Arisu suffer even a little bit of grievance, don't blame me for being impolite to you."
"Yes!"
Hikigaya quickly stood up and turned to leave.
Internally, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Chairman Sakayanagi seemed a bit tsundere, he should be considered to have agreed.
Walking to the door.
Hikigaya's gaze was somewhat hesitant.
After a long time.
He still managed to squeeze out a smile and looked back at this somewhat high-ranking and somewhat tsundere father-in-law.
"That... Father-in-law?"
"Hmm? Who are you calling father-in-law? Who is your father-in-law?"
"Uh..."
Hikigaya said awkwardly: "That... Chairman Sakayanagi, can I ask you a question?"
"..."
Glancing at Hikigaya's embarrassed face, Chairman Sakayanagi took a deep breath and still said crossly:
"Ask."
"Whew."
Hikigaya took a deep breath.
There was a question that had troubled him for a long time.
