Hachiman’s Classroom of Strength’s Supremacy

Chapter 056: Kushida: So, Hachiman, you are doing this for the class! Part 1

Hirata wasn’t actually arranged by Hachiman.

Rather, it was his own initiative.

In fact, yesterday, when Kushida was spreading rumors, Hirata seemed very enthusiastic. He even went to the soccer club to verify the truth of the rumors. By joining the club, he was able to get the number of second- and third-year students from the seniors.

He confirmed that after coming to this school, a large number of students had dropped out.

But he also learned some new information.

The third-year class A, where Horikita Suzune’s brother was, was the only class among the upper grades that started with 40 students and still had 40 students when they reached third year.

This class had no dropouts.

All of this information was gathered by Hirata and shared with everyone.

The data was in the class group.

And now, Hirata actually stood up to defend Hachiman when he was being attacked?

However…

Unfortunately,

Being kind and helping others are very good qualities. But Hirata, you were assigned to Class D of the first year.

It’s the class considered to be the bottom, so what didn’t you say? What is it about your past that made the examiner ignore all your merits after reviewing your information and place you in Class D?

So, although Hirata stood up to help, Hachiman felt pressure.

But he made a mental note of Hirata’s favor.

With that thought, Hachiman shifted his gaze to the girl sitting next to him on the left.

“…” Suzune Horikita.

Hmm.

Now, Suzune’s eyes were sharp because it seemed like there was no room for her to interject.

According to Hachiman’s plan, if he was surrounded by classmates, or if he was penalized 50 points and forced to take responsibility, then he would have Suzune stand up to intervene.

Her method of intervention would also be similar to Hirata’s.

As the saying goes, “the fault lies with the crowd.”

But in the entire class, except for Horikita Suzune, everyone had done something wrong in class. Even Hirata couldn’t escape blame.

So, they would shift the responsibility—since everyone was losing points, why single out Hachiman’s 50-point deduction?

However, this plan was already executed by Hirata, and it was highly effective.

Hirata was very popular, and when he said to distribute the blame, no one opposed.

Everyone returned their attention from Hachiman to Hirata.

At this point, Hachiman thought about whether Suzune standing up would achieve the same effect so quickly.

First of all, she didn’t have much popularity, aside from being extraordinarily beautiful and having an aloof aura.

Aside from Kushida’s ulterior motives of flattering her, she didn’t have much popularity.

So, it would be hard for her to do what Hirata did, getting the class to agree after some hesitation.

…

“Now, I will announce the parts of the school’s rules that can be relaxed,” Chabashira-sensei said as the students quieted down and continued with the announcement.

“This is the first challenge every new student faces after enrollment.”

“The assessment period is one month.”

“Each class is treated as a unit. The basic score for each class is 1,000 points, and points are deducted for actions that do not comply with the rules.”

“The specific items are: no tardiness, no leaving early, no using phones, no reading novels during class, no sleeping during class, etc…”

“After school, you cannot litter or damage the environment…”

“Fighting is a serious crime.”

“Behavior norms—”

“…”

This list of rules left everyone in a daze.

But some of the students began to understand.

“Wait a minute!”

A girl spoke up.

It was a golden-haired girl with a single ponytail sitting in the front row.

She was a very cute girl, and Hachiman had taken note of her a few times. She was one of his classmates who had made it into his notebook.

Karuizawa Kei.

It seemed that over the past few days, she had become the leader of a group of girls who hung out together.

“Chabashira-sensei, are you saying that from today until the end of this month, we have to follow these behavior rules for a whole month?” Kei Izumi asked.

“Yes,” Chabashira answered, glancing at her. “Normally, you would all finish your exams after a month, and then the scores would be revealed. But due to Hachiman’s penalty, the scores were exposed prematurely.”

“This is the first time this has happened in the history of this school.”

“You’re just lucky that you can see the changing scores early, but the exam has not been stopped.”

In fact, Chabashira-sensei was kind of helping Hachiman out.

At this moment, the attention of the classmates, who had previously been dispersed after Hirata’s intervention, returned and focused on Hachiman again.

And Kushida, the little angel who had explored the school with Hachiman on the first day, also looked over.

Her eyes gently blinked.

It seemed as though she was saying, “Did you break the camera on purpose? Was it actually for the class?”

In other words, she finally understood that he wasn’t the kind of troublemaker, but that he did it intentionally?

To reveal the current scores to everyone.

However, Kushida, even though you are blinking so adorably right now, it’s useless. You didn’t help him earlier, and that has already made him think you’re unreliable.

That’s what Hachiman thought to himself.
