Chapter 057: Offending the Entire Class in 3 Minutes, Only You Can Do It, Horikita!
After being informed that there would be more than 20 days of behavior norm assessments ahead…
“There’s no way we can do that!”
A boy said. “I mean, we got over 500 points deducted in just six days, and now there are still more than 20 days left this month—there’s definitely no way we’ll have any living expenses next month!”
“I don’t want to!”
The boy continued. “And all the stuff about exempted entrance exams and employment rates, that’s all a lie!”
“The school has deceived us!” the boy said.
“Oh?” Chabashira Sae’s slender eyes looked over.
“Then you can choose to drop out,” Chabashira said.
“And this is something I need to hand out to you.”
Chabashira took a stack of documents from the podium and walked over to the first row of students, asking them to pass it down.
It looked like she was handing out exam papers.
However…
This was not an exam paper.
“I, XXX, due to personal reasons, voluntarily choose to drop out of School.
Signature.”
“……”
Hey, hey, hey, what is this?
Is she casually making people drop out?
Of course, it’s casually making people drop out, but it’s just a warning.
Chabashira had experience as a class teacher, so when dealing with troublesome students, she could just slap out a drop-out proposal.
“Wh-What is this…?”
The troublesome student received the agreement.
But he didn’t fill in his name.
Because…
Although it’s quite excessive, with accommodation, tuition, and living expenses waived—these are things that no other school could offer.
So, if you’re not an idiot, why would you voluntarily choose to drop out?
Meanwhile, Chabashira was no longer looking at the student.
“Once the application for drop-out is accepted, it will be submitted to the student council. After being stamped by the student council president, the applicant must leave the school within two hours. If there is no action, violent enforcement will be applied.”
Chabashira said coldly.
“Ugh—”
She was so good-looking and appeared like a mature older sister.
But she spoke such cruel words with a calm demeanor.
Some of the girls were already backing down.
“Everyone, being able to come to this school is fate,” Hirata quickly said. “So, please don’t casually bring up dropping out.”
He probably didn’t want to see any students cause trouble or drop out.
After all, in everyone’s eyes, he was like a little sun, embracing everyone.
“But now that we know the rules we have to follow, if we hold on, we can pass safely,” Hirata continued. “And even if we can’t save 400 points, if we can save 300 points, each of us will still get 30,000 points for next month’s living expenses.”
“Eh…”
Although Hirata was very popular, this time, people didn’t seem to agree with him like they did before.
Because…
Now it was the sixth day since enrollment.
The class had only 480 points left from the 1000-point class evaluation.
The average deduction for the first six days was 74 points per day.
And now, it was May, so there were 25 days left.
Even if they divide the 480 points by 25, it feels hard to even deduct just 20 points a day.
“Everyone—”
At this moment, the previously mentioned Kushida joined the battlefield.
After all…
Although proposing that everyone follow the behavior norms might lower her popularity…
She was the class’s little angel, always thinking about everyone, so naturally, she couldn’t just stay silent.
She joined Hirata’s side, hoping that everyone would follow the rules properly.
“In order to be promoted to Class A, or even if that’s not possible… we still need to work hard for next month’s living expenses.”
“If we can save 300 points, the 30,000 points for next month’s living expenses will be enough, even if we have to be frugal.”
Kushida joined her hands in prayer as she spoke.
But now, the evaluation was related to next month’s living expenses. Even if others had no ambition to upgrade to Class A, they would still try their best.
“So, it’s all related to living expenses,” someone murmured.
Yes.
It had become closely related to them.
“And if we don’t get 300 points, and only get 200 points… then there will still be 20,000 points for living expenses. The cafeteria’s minimum daily expense is 600 points; that should be enough.”
Some students began to waver.
Because if they don’t comply with the school, they’ll be expelled.
Of course, no one wants to be expelled.
So, they decided to work hard to earn their living expenses.
However, the so-called 300 and 200 points couldn’t even meet Hachiman’s requirements.
If they wanted to “fake” their way into Class A, they’d need at least 400 points as a base score.
But for this class, even with someone leading the discipline, it was hard to say whether they could even save 200 points in the end.
So… not enough. Still not enough.
If merely agreeing verbally was enough to do it, they wouldn’t have lost so many points over the last few days.
So, Hirata and Kushida’s suggestions were still too mild.
Not enough.
“…”
Hachiman.
He turned his attention to the student sitting to his left, Horikita Suzune.
Although Horikita had felt that Hirata had stolen her lines earlier, since Hirata had done the work of resolving Hachiman’s issue, there was no need for her to step in.
But now…
Horikita Suzune furrowed her brows.
She was probably surprised by the behavior norm requirements.
After all, things like not fidgeting during class, not being late or leaving early, and not using phones—aren’t these basic qualities every student should have?
So why did everyone around her look so serious?
At this moment, Hachiman glanced around at his classmates.
Some students had seemingly backed down, deciding to just follow the rules and take the exam.
However, many more students showed signs of hesitation.
And he didn’t believe that Hirata and Kushida’s gentle persuasion would guarantee that every student in the class would comply.
So…
As expected.
Discipline was needed.
And this discipline…
Hachiman looked at Horikita Suzune.
“…”
Horikita Suzune finally noticed his gaze.
Oh?
Was he hoping she would help?
But now…
Yes.
She had to step in.
Hachiman had already exposed the points.
And Hirata and Kushida’s so-called friendly persuasion couldn’t make these students, who had lost 500 points in six days, act and comply.
So…
“I think you guys are ridiculous to be afraid of this exam” Horikita Suzune stood up. “I’m Horikita Suzune, and I haven’t lost a single point in these six days. I don’t think this is difficult. Rather, it’s quite laughable that you guys can’t do it or are afraid.”
“Although it’s an exam for the class as a whole, could you please not drag me down?”
As expected of Horikita.
She offended everyone the moment she spoke.
Can’t you see everyone staring at you in shock?
But…
“Horikita, that’s too extreme, isn’t it…”
Karuizawa, who had asked the question earlier, said.
“Not losing a single point, and all that…” Karuizawa seemed to find it hard to believe.
Because can Horikita Suzune really leave her phone alone and not touch it during class?
