Teacher's Office, partitioned area. Tenyo Yuyuki lounged casually against the sofa, legs propped up on the coffee table, as if the woman before him wasn't the D Class teacher at all.
"I'll cut straight to the point, Chabashira Teacher. I want to buy an untraceable anonymous account. How many points will it cost?"
Every student ID could create two accounts—one public for peer communication, similar to WeChat, and another completely anonymous.
Tenyo Yuyuki planned to buy a third, since he couldn't confirm whether other students could use points to request the school authority to trace accounts.
"Quick on the uptake."
Chabashira Sae nodded, a flicker of excitement stirring inside her. Finally, someone understood the school's rules.
She lit a cigarette with satisfaction and said flatly, "Before that, let me ask you, Tenyo Yuyuki—how far have you grasped the school's rules?"
"Chabashira-sensei, I'm the one asking questions here. Didn't anyone teach you not to answer a question with a question?" Tenyo Yuyuki's tone was teasing.
He held no reverence for Chabashira Sae whatsoever. After all, he was the son of a financial magnate, and her obsession with promoting to A Class was her greatest weakness—easy to manipulate at will.
"Is that how you address your teacher?"
Chabashira Sae frowned, half-jokingly threatening, "It seems you've understood part of the rules, but based on your attitude, this teacher might refuse to answer your questions."
"Of course, that's a teacher's prerogative." Tenyo Yuyuki paused briefly, then added with a hint of mockery, "But I'll go ask another teacher. If I get an answer from someone else, then Chabashira-sensei... your evaluation, well."
He didn't finish his sentence, but Chabashira Sae already understood his meaning.
Teachers were obligated to answer questions within the scope of the rules—they couldn't refuse. Tenyo Yuyuki's doubt clearly fell within that scope, and Chabashira couldn't turn a blind eye.
Chabashira Sae felt both puzzled and excited.
No matter how Tenyo Yuyuki had seen through this, it at least proved he was exceptionally sharp.
With his ability, he had every chance of promoting to A Class. That was enough.
"Wait here for a moment."
Chabashira Sae exhaled a puff of smoke lightly and left the partitioned area. Since Tenyo Yuyuki didn't want to talk, she wouldn't push.
Soon, she returned with two cans of black tea and handed one to him.
Tenyo Yuyuki didn't stand on ceremony. He pulled the tab open and began drinking, understanding this was Chabashira Sae's acknowledgment of his capability.
Only then did Chabashira Sae speak flatly: "There are roughly two types of anonymous accounts. One is ordinary, costing 5,000 Private Points. The other is hard to trace, costing 20,000 Private Points. It depends on your needs."
"There's no completely untraceable account?" Tenyo Yuyuki asked, puzzled.
Hearing this, Chabashira Sae's lips curled into a smile. "No. Actually, both accounts are the same. The so-called 'hard to trace' just adds a rule—for example, if someone applies to the school to trace the account's owner, they need to spend double the purchase price in Private Points."
She paused briefly, then continued, "This school has been around for decades. The rules it's established touch every aspect, and even I can't grasp the full picture of the regulations!"
Chabashira Sae's meaning was clear: don't take a teacher's words as absolute truth, since even they hadn't fully figured out the school's rules.
Even in the original work, not all the school's rules had surfaced. Tenyo Yuyuki would naturally need to delve into the rules himself.
"Then I want to spend 50,000 Private Points to buy an untraceable account."
"Fine."
Tenyo Yuyuki proactively raised the points he was willing to spend, all for the sake of safety. He wouldn't put himself in danger.
To trace a 20,000-point hidden account required spending 400,000 Private Points.
And now, just after the start of the semester, each class had 1,000 Class Points. With 40 students per class, that converted to 400,000 Private Points.
A Class, which consistently held 1,000 Class Points, could earn 400,000 Private Points monthly. After deducting monthly expenses, saving over 100,000 was already decent.
Though he didn't think anyone would spend 400,000 points to trace a hidden account, he chose the 50,000-point anonymous account for safety.
A 50,000 Private Point account would require 1,000,000 Private Points to trace. Surely no one would make such a foolish choice—after all, 20,000,000 Private Points could save a student from expulsion.
Using those points for an excellent pawn, Tenyo Yuyuki felt it was well worth it.
The two exchanged contact information. Chabashira Sae quickly sent him an account—clearly, the key wasn't technology but the rules. Tenyo Yuyuki paid the price of 50,000 Private Points in return.
After receiving the account, Tenyo Yuyuki asked again, "I want to buy another untraceable hidden account. How many Private Points will it cost?"
"..."
Chabashira Sae couldn't help but smile. She was genuinely pleased right now. The Tenyo Yuyuki before her was clearly very sharp, constantly delving deeper into the rules.
This mature beauty's heartfelt smile was indeed devastatingly charming—few people likely ever saw Chabashira Sae smile.
But Tenyo Yuyuki had no mind to appreciate it at the moment. Without waiting for Chabashira's reply, he frowned and probed:
"Can't answer?"
"You can't afford it."
Chabashira Sae lit another cigarette, not giving a direct response.
Can't afford it...
Tenyo Yuyuki frowned and took a sip of black tea.
Chabashira Sae couldn't answer his question directly, but she had given him more information from the side.
Repeatedly buying accounts would gradually increase the price. That cost definitely exceeded the 50,000 Private Points he had on hand.
The school must have very detailed rules on this, and even how teachers should respond might follow a set procedure.
But.
Right now, school had just started, and everyone was starting from ten thousand points. Chabashira Sae was well aware of this.
Yet Chabashira Sae only said they couldn't afford it, without giving a specific number. That wasn't a problem in itself, but if a few months passed, how would she answer the same question again?
When a person's points underwent uncontrollable changes, could she still reply that they couldn't afford it?
And what benchmark would she use to judge whether the other party had sufficient purchasing power?
The most likely possibility.
Was that Chabashira Sae had the authority to know the students' Private Points, or rather, the authority to know D Class's Private Points.
But none of this actually mattered.
What mattered.
Was that, based on this, the school seemed to treat the Class Advisor and the students as a single entity.
Although the Original Work hadn't shown it yet, the true leader of D Class was actually Chabashira Sae. In future exams, to Promote to A Class, students and the Class Advisor would definitely need to work together.
Chabashira Sae also believed that promoting to A Class as a Class Advisor would fulfill her obsession.
It seemed better to find an opportunity to control Chabashira Sae.
Tenyo Yuyuki stood up directly and said, "Then let's leave it here for today. I'll take my leave now."
"Hm? Don't you have any other questions?" Chabashira Sae was still a bit caught off guard. He hadn't even asked her the most crucial question yet.
"No need."
Tenyo Yuyuki instantly returned to his cheerful smile, politely took his leave, and departed.
S System.
This was something he had long known. There was no need to flaunt it in front of Chabashira. It wasn't particularly remarkable information either. Tenyo Yuyuki valued practical benefits more.
He still had more important things to do.
