Sakayanagi Arisu didn't really want to support him.
'I just felt that campus life was boring, so I got information about this Hikigaya-kun from Kushida-san, thinking that he might be able to bring a little fun to my campus life.'
Then...become desperate. She didn't want to look back at those painful times. But that doesn't matter now.
Hikigaya-kun was now worried about the class evaluation scores.
"I didn't expect you to be interested in this kind of thing." Sakayanagi said. "Why don't you slow down and be a little calmer? Look at the second and then the third graders. Wouldn't you get used to it?"
Are you used to it? Yes.
Because Class D is recognized as a garbage dump, then there is no need to put Class A into the dump too, right?
'Don't you think the space'll get cramped?'
Class D of 2nd and 3rd grade are both good examples.
Among them, Class D in the second grade still has a class evaluation score of 200 points, but Class D in the third grade only has a score of 20 points.
According to the fact that the school's monthly living expenses for students are the class evaluation score x 100 points.
In other words, the monthly living expenses of second-year Class D students are only 20,000.
The cost of eating for a day is more than 1,000 points, so there is definitely not enough food.
As for the seniors in Class D of the third grade, they discuss which free window dish is the best every day, which is even more pitiful.
So, the seniors set such an example.
'So why don't you, Class D of the first grade, be good little boys and don't drag the poor Class A down?'
Just accept the situation! No matter how hard you try, it's useless!'
Everyone will lose and their money will be deducted.
So if you set it up early, you can relax earlier.
And Hikigaya-kun also understands this truth'
Only. "Because something happened." Hachiman said. "I need to lead Class D to climb up once."
Oh. That's it.
But Sakayanagi Arisu's expression remained unchanged, "Do you think it's really okay to say this to me?"
"After all, I am also one of the representatives of Class A now."
"So can I understand that you are declaring war on me?" She raised her eyebrows in question.
"Because the target is Class A, we will have to fight sooner or later."But Hachiman didn't waver, he wanted to fight, "So it doesn't matter if I declare war now."
"Rather, it's because I have declared war. So Sakayanagi, as the representative of Class A, I hope you can accept the challenge."
"Because, if you don't help me deal with the current situation, then our Class D can shamelessly attack you, Class A, once against the rules."
That's right. Then you are great.
'It's simply shameless' Sakayanagi Arisu felt cheated!
'I originally looked at Hikigaya-kun's frown and then felt happy.'
It turns out that you, Hikigaya Hachiman, wanted her to use her brain!'
However, this condition could not be refused.
Just like the 0-point battle he said about Class D, it was shameless and lowered the scores of other classes.
So if the other party really does this, the school will definitely not ban Class D's sexy operations, and Class A may be pulled down in the mud by the other party.
Then everyone's efforts this month will be in vain.
Sakayanagi Arisu thought for a while and said, "If Class D wants to rise, then it must keep the points for this month's code of conduct."
"That is, accumulate costs and narrow the gap."
"It's just this kind of thing, can the students in your class do that?" Sakayanagi didn't want to pay a heavy price, so she tried to convince her opponent, "I can confirm that our class A, in the past few days, has been deducted no more than 5 points."
That's right. Then your Class A is quite outstanding.
In fact, it is understandable.
Because each student in Class A paid 50,000 points as a price to buy the school's rules.
They all spent a lot of money, and of course they have to spend their money in a worthwhile way.
So, they all showed up. Hachiman thought to himself.
"..." Hachiman. Because a price is paid and everyone participates...
Is that so? He suddenly thought of something, and then looked at this smart silver-haired cute girl.
"This is it," Hachiman's eyes brightened all of a sudden, "I thought of a solution."
"Sakayanagi, you are indeed a very smart person." He even decided to thank this beautiful but evil person for helping him so much, "Next time if we eat together, I can pay for you."
With that said, Hikigaya Hachiman stood up and walked out of the cafeteria.
Only Sakayanagi was left sitting quietly and obediently in her original position.
"Hmm?" She blinked her eyes lightly.
'If a man whose goal is to be adopted takes the initiative to pay for me, it is obviously... something good has happened to Hikigaya-kun'
That is to say. He probably got the idea from his conversation with her.
'And Hikigaya-kun just declared war on behalf of Class D.
So, as one of the representatives of Class A, I just collaborated with the enemy? How terrible?!'
"Kamuro-san." Sakayanagi immediately turned around, her face looked panicked.
"?"
"We didn't talk to Hikigaya-kun just now, right?" She asked, while pointing her small fingers at her.
"Eh?"
"Because, it seems that we accidentally created a powerful enemy of Class A just now." She seemed quite hesitant to continue her words, but decided there wasn't much choice, "....And I don't want to take the blame."
? ? ?
Kamuro-san was stunned. Eh?
In other words, Sakayanagi Arisu, do you think Class D can really defeat Class A?
True. Hikigaya Hachiman already gave her a sense of danger.
But, is it really possible? Because, Class D, 500 points were deducted in 5 days.
Unless the school shows kindness and deducts the 1000 points given to Class D to 0, then no negative points will be issued.
Otherwise, even 5,000 points will not be enough for them.
So, how will Class D hold on to the remaining 500 points in the next 26 days?
After coming out of the cafeteria, Hachiman found Horikita-san, who was still in the classroom.
It is already the fifth day of school, and the students no longer pretend to live in whatever lifestyle they feel comfortable with.
Therefore, during lunch breaks, evenings and mornings, they usually go to the cafeteria or shopping street to have a big meal.
There are very few people in the class who can cook, and even fewer who can carry their own lunch boxes.
But here is Class D, first grade. There is still such a future family girl.
That's Horikita Suzune.
As a young man who aspires to be a house cook, Hachiman certainly knows how to do it.
If he's making lunch for his sister Komachi, he can get up early.
But Just for himself, bread is enough.
When Hachiman arrived in the classroom, he found Horikita-san sitting in her seat, and the books had been put away.
But a pink lunch box was placed. There are also small table handkerchiefs and tea.
The lunch box was opened and contained rice, tempura, croquettes, cauliflower, carrots, and steamed eggs.
Both the appearance and the fragrance are very good.
Although he wanted to eat it slightly, Hachiman was not a shameless person.
So he just sat down in his seat and took out a textbook to read.
About ten minutes later, when Horikita-san had finished her meal and had cleaned her lunch box, she sent the other party a message.
Then the two of them headed to the stairs where he met Kushida-san.
"I just thought of a plan in the cafeteria." Hachiman took the initiative.
"I have already said that our class is very weak, so if we are deducted too much from the basic score at the beginning, we will fall behind by the end of the first month."
"It is difficult to shorten the distance with the previous classes." Hachiman decided to drag this girl along with his plan, "...So I have to take the opportunity to score some points this month."
Horikita Suzune nodded. He spoke and she just listened.
She was already treated as a waste by her brother, anyway.
Although she was encouraged by Hikigaya-kun showing off, but... during the analysis with the other party last night, she found that Class D was worse than imagined.
'I'm afraid if I give it a few more days, all the 1,000-point class evaluation points given by the school at the beginning will be deducted.'
Therefore, Suzune even had a nightmare last night.
This is desperate. 'So, can Hikigaya-kun make any suggestions that can reverse the current situation?'
Sure. Because this is a solution he got for free from the leader of Class A, Sakayanagi.
"The first-year students in Class A performed very well. Each of them gave points to buy information, so they took this exam very seriously."
"There is almost no need for restraint, and they will lead by example." Hachiman said.
"So I want to follow suit in our class."
"If everyone needs to participate. Or have to participate, and then keep the score." He briefly outlined his plan.
However, Horikita did not make an immediate decision.
Because Hachiman's plan... is really... a bit shocking.
"And in order for my plan to be implemented, I took this into consideration." Hachiman added, while slightly hoping that she'll decide to listen, "....I have chosen a reliable person."
"And this person needs to be controlled by you, Horikita"
"Controlled by me?" Suzune frowned slightly. 'What weird things, this guy started saying again?!
But she still nodded meekly, "...Don't worry, I'll be useful."
___________
Then it was afternoon.
After school in the afternoon, most of the students in the classroom left, but Suzune did not leave.
Rather, she is now entangled with someone.
"Horikita-san, I didn't expect you to take the initiative to contact me."
This is little Kushida-san with blond hair. She looks quite cute and... enthusiastic.
She is as passionate as fire. And Horikita-san is as cold as ice.
"You don't have to be so enthusiastic," Suzune immediately admonished this happy-looking girl, she was her natural enemy after all, "I don't like it!"
'I see, Horikita-san still has no friends.'
___________
Kushida received the note, that Suzune put in her drawer.
The other party asked her to stay after school. 'What era, from these plans comes from? Leaving messages behind like this?'
Extremely old-fashioned. But this is also because Horikita does not have her contact information.
And Kushida-san's order was very straightforward.
In the morning, she had made an appointment to go to Keyaki Shopping Center in the shopping district with Karuizawa and the others to see perfume.
But Kushida-san chose to stay and wait for Horikita.
Only. "....Uh-huh" Hikigaya pretended to cough twice.
Because Horikita, if you do this, you will lose all your friends, so this is called leaving it to you. 'Can you come in handy?'
"What's wrong, Hikigaya-kun?"
Kushida seemed to have just discovered that he was still in the classroom, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Actually, no, because the person who really asked Kushida to date was not Horikita Suzune, but him.
So he looked in the direction of the said person.
"..." Suzune. She seemed to be trying hard, and then touched her dark straight hair on the left side with her left hand, and then looked at Kushida Kikyo.
"Kushida-san, can I join the class group you mentioned?"
"..." Kushida. She seemed stunned for a moment.
But she immediately showed a reassuring smile, "Of course you can. Or rather, I have been worried that Horikita-san would feel lonely if she didn't join in."
Kushida-san is like an angel. But.
"It seems that you are very dedicated to me." But Suzune seemed very calm.
I hate it.
"I just want to be friends with Horikita-san."
"Then I can become friends with you," Suzune decided to fool this girl, to be honest she didn't even want to come near her, "If you do me a favor?"
"Huh?" Kushida Kikyo's slender eyelashes blinked gently.
"Have you encountered any trouble, Horikita-san?" She seemed to have become cute.
She would choose to pester Horikita Suzune, not because she was a dog licker, but because she knew that Horikita Suzune and she came from the same junior high school.
So, she was worried that the other party would know about her dark history.
That was something that couldn't be exposed. She regarded this school as a new student and didn't want it to end like this.
So, she has to deal with this cold person. And this is why Kushida always pestered her and wanted to be friends.
If the relationship is good, then the other party will not talk nonsense.
At least, that's how it looks on the surface.
But Horikita Suzune was a tough girl, which made Kushida find it difficult to deal with.
As a result, has the other party now actively opened up their psychological defense?
Kushida-san remains cute. Then hear the other person's voice.
"Yeah." Horikita nodded her head, and decided to make use of this annoying girl, who's always harassing her "I hope you can spread a rumor in the class."
"A rumor about the nature of this school."
__________
1. This is a school funded by the government and allocated from the government, so it will ensure that the money will be spent wisely.
2. I learned from the senior students in the club that this school has many exams with various content, and the punishment for failure is very serious.
Even dropping out of school.
3. A lot of upperclassmen are being withdrawn. It seems that there are 8 classes in total for the entire second and third grade students, but each class has less than 40 students.
The above is what Horikita hopes that Kushida-san can help.
Ask her to release the rumors. And these 3 points are the content of the rumors.
But.
"..." Kushida-san. She carefully observed the contents of these three rumors.
Then quickly look in one direction.
Sitting there was a dead fish-eyed boy who had not yet left because he was slow in packing his schoolbag.
That was Hikigaya Hachiman. There are only three of them in the classroom now.
At first, Kushida felt that it was hard for Horikita-san to open up and get close to her, so it was best to seize the opportunity directly and cut off all the chances for the other party to mention her dark history.
Then Hikigaya-kun seems to be a hindrance here. But now, she suddenly looked towards him.
Because. Horikita-san wants her to release the rumors, which is a rather troublesome move.
The content of the rumors is not excessive. But she felt that the content seemed familiar.
Because on the day she entered school, she met Hikigaya Hachiman in the dormitory, and then the other party said something similar to her, and then the two of them went to explore other grades together.
They visited the first floor of the teaching building for three grades respectively.
And she still remembers meeting the Student council president Horikita Manabu and Secretary Tachibana Akane.
Only.
It's just that Hikigaya-kun didn't say anything else related to this school at that time, but these three pieces of information gave her the impression that it was the information Hikigaya Hachiman had detected.
Only. 'Hikigaya-kun, why do you use Horikita Suzune to convey the information you know?'
'Don't you have a bad relationship with Horikita Suzune?'
'When did it become such a relationship behind my back?'
'And did Horikita Suzune say anything [bad words about me] to you?'
"Well..." Kushida-san seemed to be brewing her emotions a little, and the originally pleasant voice seemed to become even more beautiful.
"Hikigaya-kun~"
"..." Hachiman.
Kushida was an old acquaintance of his, and he immediately understood how delicate and affected she was.
Kushida-san is now suspicious of his presence.
"Horikita seems to have noticed some other news." Hachiman immediately wanted this person's heart to calm down, "I got caught by her, then I had to help."
Oh. I see. 'Hikigaya-kun is just being blackmailed by Horikita-san!'
This answer is barely acceptable.
After all, Suzune is the kind of person who doesn't know how to get along with others.
For example, she goes to the other party's door to wait in the morning and wants to go to school with her, but she directly shoo her away.
Like air.
And it's already the third time.
As for Hikigaya, although it is difficult to deal with, he is a person who cannot resist others.
So the current situation is understandable.
Kushida-san kept smiling. After all, the most important thing now is to gain favor with Horikita Suzune and become friends with her first.
Although the operation of letting her release rumors is quite criticized.
There is no big problem with the content of the rumors prepared by Horikita.
If she is asked to speak ill of someone, she will think about whether it is worth it.
After all, it will tarnish her image of being an angel. As long as it's just these contents, it's still okay.
And she also discovered that the content of this rumor was essentially good.
Probably she hope students can treat this school more carefully.
As someone who went to explore the school with Hachiman on the first day, she also felt it was strange for the school to give them such good treatment.
And are they really... worthy?
Although she felt that the classmates in her previous junior high school class were already outrageous, the students in this class were even more terrifying.
Some people make her not want to be included in the category of [friends].
So the school uniformly gives everyone such treatment, which is strange no matter how you think about it.
___________
It's just that Kushida-san probably wanted to win Horikita's favor, so she started operating directly in front of the two of them.
Her operation is very good.
First, she took her phone to call a girl and told her that she had been approached by a senior student, and was told that it would be better to take it seriously in school.
But when asked again, the senior students were unwilling to say anything.
This made her feel strange. 'Are the upperclassmen hiding something?'
Then she sent a message to another classmate. Set up the rhythm. And for a while.
There have been changes in Class D, and some students are already discussing this kind of thing.
'Why can't the eight senior classes make up 40 people?' The school's finances are in trouble, and students are dropping out like crazy to cut expenses.
Um. Once this rumor spread, it was horribly distorted.
It just works pretty well. The more outrageous it is, the more attention it will attract.
So, is there any way to confirm it?
Example, Ken Sudo who was late in the morning.
He joined the basketball club and became a regular player. Sudo was late for practice in the morning because he was excited.
It's just a candidate who can also reach out to foreign students and upperclassmen.
"Eh? You want me to ask the senior class?"
"They are all staring at me, jealous that I can become the main candidate." This is the reply from Sudo
Ok. This man is hopeless.
But. "I passed by the football club yesterday, and I was thinking about joining it because I was in the football club when I was in junior high school."
"Let me go and ask."
And this gentle was, Hirata's mother.
Soon, this reliable person brought back information.
Among the sophomores and third year's, there were 160 when they entered school, but now, there are only 112 sophomores and 133 third graders.
But he also paid a price. The deputy director of the football club asked him to join the football department.
Hachiman had discovered on the school forum before that senior students were sending club applications to freshmen.
Excellent performance can also be rewarded with points.
Obviously the school probably gives the club funds, and then the club has to meet some requirements.
So, someone needs to join the team and perform well.
And Hirata, who used to be the backbone of the football club, was pulled over.
In other words, the club may be a place to gain points.
It's just that the senior club has been exploited because of Sakayanagi's incident.
If he attacks them, the senior students may become wary. Then it's not that easy to cheat. And.
'Let's complete the mission I received from Chabashira-sensei first. After all, it's ten million, right?'
Obviously he is still studying, but he is already working on big projects.
This way, Hachiman is in high spirits.
