Chapter 45 The Secret of Kushida Kikyou

That was a very impactful scene.

The little angel who used to treat everyone with sweet and gentle personality is now approaching with a terrifying expression and imposing atmosphere, which would shake anyone's heart and make them instinctively step back.

In this way, anyone will surely be forced into a corner by Kushida Kikyou, right?

And Kushida Kikyou seems to be doing it for this reason. She approaches towards him while reaching out her hand, apparently wanting to push him against the wall.

Unfortunately, Kushida Kikyou picked the wrong opponent.

"Snap!"

In a crisp sound, the hand that Kushida Kikyou reached out to Fang Li was tightly grabbed.

Fang Li tightly held onto Kushida Kikyou's wrist, gazing at this girl who approached him, and asked indifferently.

"What are you planning to do?"

Kushida Kikyou didn't answer, just staring at Fang Li with a terrifying expression.

The expression was already filled with darkness and gloom.

"Why are you following me?"

Kushida Kikyou asked with such a question.

And Fang Li answered truthfully.

"Don't you realize that I've been keeping an eye on you since the day you invited me to go out with you, along with Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, Hirata Yousuke, Karuizawa Kei, Ike Kanji, and Yamauchi Haruki to stroll around the Keyaki Mall?"

Since that day, Kushida Kikyou had officially entered Fang Li's sight.

Therefore, Kushida Kikyou had already been exposed.

"...Why?" Kushida Kikyou couldn't help but continue to question, "I don't think I've revealed any flaws."

This is also true.

Kushida Kikyou really hid herself very well.

So far, this little angel who has always treated others with a sweet and lovely image, no one has ever suspected that she has such a dark and cold side.

Even Fang Li didn't realize this. It was only because Kushida Kikyou's gaze towards him at Keyaki Mall had caused him to doubt.

"So, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have known you were like this," Fang Li said lightly. "Before, I just thought you were hiding some secret, but I really didn't expect this secret to be so astonishing."

But if this is the true face of Kushida Kikyou, it can really explain all the doubts in Fang Li's heart.

Fang Li has always had two doubts about Kushida Kikyou.

Firstly, it was the look that Kushida Kikyou gave Fang Li at the Keyaki Mall.

That gaze was like looking at a tool that could be used.

"I've always wondered what you meant when you looked at me with that kind of gaze," Fang Li said. "And now I know."

The reason why Kushida Kikyou looked at Fang Li with that kind of gaze was because of Horikita Suzune.

"You wanted to use me to get in contact with Horikita Suzune, right?"

Fang Li revealed this matter.

Even if he had not noticed Kushida Kikyou's true face before, based on Kushida Kikyou's previous behavior, Fang Li could still draw this conclusion.

After all, before Kushida Kikyou specially ran to Fang Li's room in the middle of the night, and almost all the topics discussed were about Horikita Suzune.

That was Kushida Kikyou's way of trying to extract information about Horikita Suzune from Fang Li.

As for the reason for doing so...

"You said before that you wanted to be on good terms with Horikita, right?" Fang Li looked directly at Kushida Kikyou and said, "But that's both truth and lie."

Kushida Kikyou did want to be on good terms with Horikita Suzune.

However, that was definitely not out of a pure desire to make friends.

Kushida Kikyou also wanted to use her proximity to Horikita Suzune to achieve her own goals.

This goal, if it were an ordinary person, they would likely not be able to perceive it.

But Fang Li could perceive it.

Because this was Fang Li's strongest field.

"You want to find Horikita Suzune's weakness and use it to defeat her?"

With his exceptional intuition and experience, Fang Li announced this without any basis or evidence.

"For example, make Horikita Suzune drop out of school."

As soon as he said this, Kushida Kikyou's expression changed.

It began to waver.

This also told Fang Li.

He guessed correctly.

"Why do you have such hostility towards Horikita? It's not just because you dislike her, is it?"

Fang Li suddenly smiled and spoke.

"If my idea is correct, you and Horikita must have had some kind of incident before entering this school."

These words once again made Kushida Kikyou's expression shake.

"Why...how did you know..."

Kushida Kikyou could not conceal her trembling voice.

To this, Fang Li only maintained the posture of tightly holding her wrist and calmly explained.

"Because I just solved the second question I had about you."

Fang Li's second question about Kushida Kikyou was why she was assigned to class D.

Kushida Kikyou had excellent grades and athletic ability, and her popularity was extremely high. Her communication skills were among the best in this school. Even if she wasn't an A-class student, she should have been assigned to the B-class at the very least. It was not reasonable for her to be assigned to class D.

Class D was a class that gathered defective products.

Kushida Kikyou, who should not have been assigned to class D, must have had some very significant defect.

This defect was now clear.

It was Kushida Kikyou's dark and cold personality.

However, Kushida Kikyou had always hidden it well. Even Fang Li had not discovered this side of her. If this was the case, even if the Advanced Nurturing High School investigated the past of middle school students throughout the country with national-level abilities, it would be unlikely to investigate the other people's inner selves, right?

But Kushida Kikyou did end up in class D, proving that she had been investigated after all.

Since she is being investigated, that means one thing.

"You must have exposed your true nature in the past because of something, even causing a big disturbance, which is why you were investigated by the Advanced Nurturing High School."

Fang Li ruthlessly revealed the deepest secret in Kushida Kikyou's heart.

"That's the reason you were assigned to Class D."

Kushida Kikyou undoubtedly wanted to conceal this matter.

"The school is unlikely to disclose this matter," Fang Li smirked and said, "but others might."

For example, someone who knew Kushida Kikyou in the past and knew about the "incident" caused by Kushida Kikyou's true nature.

"That person is Horikita."

Fang Li made a conclusion.

"Is it because of this that you wanted her to drop out of school?"

This is the secret that Kushida Kikyou has hidden.

The biggest and least wanted secret to be known.

Horikita Suzune knows this secret, so Kushida Kikyou wanted to crush her and drive her out of this school.

For this reason, Kushida Kikyou deliberately approached Fang Li, wanting to use Fang Li to get closer to Horikita Suzune.

This is the question that Fang Li has solved.

However, Fang Li has a new question.

"What is the 'incident' that you are trying so hard to conceal?"

Fang Li stepped into a minefield without hesitation.

"Would you like to explain it to me?"
