COTE: Bag And Love System

Chapter 24: Chapter 24



After a while, everyone in Class D received the printed contract. They all had different expressions and different thoughts at that moment.

   "One million points? I think you're crazy!"

   After reading the contract, Yamauchi Haruki, who already had a bad attitude, immediately shouted, "Are you here to defraud me?"

   "This is too expensive. What are the hidden rules? Do we have to buy it?"

   "I have no intention of handing over my points to strangers. I still have to participate in club activities. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense!"

   The red-haired boy from the athletics department spoke in a very bad tone. He only stayed to give Hirata some face. Now, after seeing this so-called contract, he realized that the other party was here to sell him some hidden rules.

   Sudo doesn't care about all this, he just wants to join the basketball team as soon as possible. His superiors value him the most currently and this is the most important way for him to realize his dream.

   "Hirata, I'm leaving now. I won't participate in this plan. You can do whatever you want with the rest!"

   After saying this, Sudo didn't hesitate at all. He immediately took his sports bag, opened the back door of the classroom and walked out.

   After seeing him leave, Yamauchi Haruki and Ike Kanji, who had just been talking, also wanted to leave. They picked up their backpacks and prepared to follow him.

   But at this moment, Kushida Kikyo called out to them.

   "Yamauchi-san, Ike-san, are you really not willing?" The short-haired girl showed an adorable expression. After reading the contract, she immediately realized the selling method of this rule. If it's a million, each person in Class D will have to contribute 25,000 points. The more people there are, the less they can share, and vice versa.

   "Well… Kushida-san, it's not that I don't want to join, but this is too expensive."

   After the popular beauty of the class, Kikyo Kushida, turned to Yamauchi, he hesitated a bit, but his face looked a little awkward as he replied.

   Although it had only been a week, he had already spent more than 60,000 yuan. If he had to pay more, he wouldn't have enough money for the rest of his life.

   "Then can you guys wait a moment? I'll continue asking Hashima-san. If the hidden rules you know are really important, I hope you all can work together for the class."

   After hearing what Kushida said, some of the Class D students who originally wanted to leave were a little hesitant. After all, the girl was still quite popular in the class and everyone trusted her and Hirata.

   "Yes, Hashima-san is telling us that she has mastered the rules. As for whether we should buy it, it depends on whether she can prove her sincerity. Can you please wait a bit?"

   Hirata spoke up at just the right moment. He looked at the smiling boy and said solemnly, "Hashima-san, how did you buy the hidden rules that you know? Can you explain them to everyone?"

   "Sure."

   The boy's gaze swept across everyone in Class D and then looked at Horikita Suzune, who had just sat down after speaking. She held the contract in one hand and her mobile phone in the other, a serious expression on her pretty face.

  "I can tell you that we bought the hidden rules from our teacher and the price we paid was three million points." Hashima Hikaru made a three sign with his fingers. He was already familiar with this lie, so his expression was calm. "That's why we came to sell you the rules and the price is only one million."

  "As for why the price is so high, it can be found out with a simple calculation. After all, there are four classes in the first grade."

   The boy smiled slightly, looking very relaxed. It wouldn't be as difficult to trick Class D as it was Class A. The most important thing was to convince them to give him money.

  At this moment, Ichinose Honami, who was standing next to him, also added, "In addition to buying the rules, we asked the teacher to print out this contract, and it has the school seal on it, so it can prove that we didn't lie."

   "You can take a closer look and then decide whether to buy the hidden rules."

  As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in Class D immediately looked at the seal beneath the contract. In fact, it was the same seal as the one on the admission letter, which added a lot of credibility to what the two said.

Hirata and Kushida, who were nearby, immediately realized why Hashima had proposed a transaction price of one million. It seemed like he was planning to sell all the rules to other classes and finally get back the points paid by his own class.

   "How is everyone's thinking?"

   Hashima Hikaru knows that the students of Class D are far inferior to those of Class A in terms of overall quality, but Hirata and Kushida, as leaders, are obviously tempted at this moment. As long as these two can influence everyone's decision, there is hope of getting back the points.

   The only thing he needs to do is to add fuel to the fire at the right time and finally complete the deal.

   "Don't disappoint me, Kushida-san."

   Hashima Hikaru looked at the short-haired girl with a serious expression beside him. Since her attributes overlapped a bit with Ichinose's, now was the best time for her to act.

   In the D-class classroom after school, Hashima Hikaru and Ichinose Honami stood at the podium, waiting for everyone's answers.

   "If it's a million, then everyone must pay 25,000 personal points," Hirata began to persuade the students in the class. "If this hidden rule is really important, I hope everyone can join together to raise the money."

   "But Sudo is gone." Kushida looked at the empty seat in the back and asked, "Do we have to help him pay for it?"

   "It shouldn't matter that one person is missing. If we split the cost between everyone, it won't be much."

   Kushida Kikyo's attitude is now very positive. She said to the classmates of Class D who usually trust her, "After all, this rule was bought by Hashima's class for 3 million, which means its value is very high. You can think about it. If we can buy it, it must be very useful."

   "So it seems… For three million, everyone in Class B would have to contribute a lot of points."

   "But how can we guarantee that what this guy said is true?" Yamauchi still maintained an extremely skeptical attitude, as if she was giving advice to everyone in the class. "What if we pay the points and he says that the hidden rules are that we are not allowed to be late to class or leave early? Wouldn't that mean that we are being cheated?"

   "What Yamauchi said makes sense. After all, they are students from another class. We just met today."

   The attitude of the students of Class D has been constantly changing. In addition to being easily influenced, more importantly, they are all willing to not pay points. After all, although twenty-five thousand is only a quarter of the hundred thousand distributed at the beginning of the school year, who would be willing to withdraw the money that has already entered their pockets?

   Seeing the students of Class D arguing with each other, Hashima Hikaru felt a little unhappy.

   Only now did the boy fully understand why this group of people was assigned to Class D.

  Not to mention their selfishness, there are people who discourage the entire class by deliberately singing a different tune. It is not wrong to call this group a trash can when they don't even realize the importance of the rules.

"Everyone, please don't be like that. If the school really has hidden rules, we should know about them." Seeing that the students were somewhat reluctant, Hirata said with a hint of impatience, "Didn't Horikita just say that? Since there are a lot of free things at school, it means that there must be people who don't have money to eat. Don't you want to know the truth?"

   "This is so boring. I'm not interested in waiting with you any longer. There are people waiting for me to go on a date."

   At this moment, a muscular man with long, golden hair stood up from his seat. He had a pair of red eyes and a look of disdain on his face.

   "Kōenji-san, what do you want to do?" Hirata immediately shouted.

   "I don't want to spend my precious points on buying this set of rules. After all, no rules can limit someone as perfect as me. Hahaha!"

  The man Hirata called Koenji laughed loudly. He picked up his backpack and was about to leave. But after taking a few steps, he turned his head and looked at Hashima Hikaru, who was standing on the podium, and asked.

   "Boy, your name is Hikaru Hashima, right?"

   "Yeah, I wonder if Koenji-san has any advice for me."

   "I'm a little interested in you. Are you willing to work for me in the future? I'm the only son of the Koenji chaebol and I will never allow you to suffer any loss."

   Although he spoke with solicitous words, the blond man still had an expression of great pride on his face, as if this attitude had been integrated into every inch of his skin.

   "?"

   There are still people with this background entering this school?

   Hearing this, Hashima Hikaru was slightly stunned, but soon replied with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, Kouenji-san, but unfortunately I'm not interested. Sorry."

   "Forget it, we'll definitely meet again in the future, and maybe then you'll change your mind."

   Faced with the boy's direct rejection, Kouenji's expression didn't change much. He still had an arrogant look on his face. He turned around and walked out of Class D's classroom.

  "this…"

  All the students in Class D knew about this guy's arrogant attitude these days, so no one tried to stop him.

   "Hirata-san, we have shown enough sincerity. It seems that your classmates have no intention of accepting this deal at all. Do you have anything to say?"

   Hashima Hikaru's gaze swept across the students of Class D who were sitting in their seats with different expressions. She wanted to continue to provoke Hirata, the class leader, to see what kind of person he was.

   "Don't worry, Hashima-san. I'm sure everyone will agree."

   After the boy's further explanation, Hirata naturally understood the significance of the hidden rule. Since the value of this rule is three million, and it only costs one million to buy it now, it is definitely not a loss.

"Can you believe me?" Hirata Yosuke walked to the center of the classroom and looked at the students of Class D anxiously. "I became the class leader to better help my classmates so that they can have a wonderful high school life in the future."

   "Now that Hashima-san has shown us that this school has hidden rules, why don't we agree? Do you really not care at all?"

   "We still don't know what the hidden rules mean, but I believe that Hashima-san is not a liar. Since he is willing to tell us the rules that his class bought, why should we refuse? Don't you even believe me?"

   Although he was trying to persuade everyone, Hirata didn't want to say anything too harsh. That was his code of conduct.

   After saying this, a girl immediately stood up.

   It was a girl with a high ponytail, a beautiful face, and a confident expression. She had her school uniform open and wore bracelets of different colors on her hands, looking very fashionable.

   "I trust Yosuke and agree to pay the points."

   After finishing her speech, several other girls followed suit and said, "We also believe in Hirata-san and are willing to pay the points together."

   "Thank you, Karuizawa-san." Hirata looked at Karuizawa Megumi, who spoke first, with some excitement.

   Karuizawa?

   Is this your girlfriend?

  Hashima Hikaru, who was standing on the podium, was a little worried, so she took a few more glances at the high ponytailed girl standing there. She was really very beautiful and seemed to be a good match for Hirata.

  "Yes, I believe Hashima-san too. Since they spent three million points to buy the rules, it means that the rules are very important."

   Kushida found the right opportunity to continue persuading the others. Although she had formed completely different opinions about Hashima Hikaru and Ichinose Honami in her heart, she felt that if she only had to pay 25,000 points to obtain the hidden rules of the school, it would be fine to accept. The girl normally did not spend money lavishly.

  "Are you willing to believe me? Let's pool the points."

  After Kushida Kikyo finished saying this, all the students who got along with her were tempted. After all, as the most popular student in Class D, the girl could certainly influence many people's decisions.

  "But I don't have enough points. Can I pay less?"
