"Is that even possible?"
"You cut 9.5 million down to just 450,000. The school must be losing its mind!"
"If you're my bro, come haggle me down!"
The viewers went wild, commenting on Ayanokoji's bargaining.
Had anyone ever seen anything like that?
As it turned out, they hadn't.
Some people were also talking about the foreshadowing.
"No wonder they added a swimming lesson out of nowhere in the first episode. I thought it was fanservice, but it turns out they were planting a clue."
"I love foreshadowing like this. Give us more!"
"Same here."
Dokuho Kouya watched the anime in silence. After Ayanokoji and the others returned to Class D, they explained what had just happened.
"Horikita just argued her case with Chabashira-sensei, and managed to get the price down to 450,000 private points."
Ayanokoji addressed the class. "On top of that, she's willing to put all her points toward saving the students facing expulsion."

In exchange, he would give her all the credit from then on.
The girl had seemed a little puzzled, but since it was a "fair" trade, she had agreed to Ayanokoji's request.
"Horikita, is all of that true?"
Hirata Yosuke asked the silent, black-haired girl in disbelief, excitement plain on his handsome face.
"Everything Ayanokoji said is true."
Horikita Suzune nodded slightly.

The people in Class D were stunned by her answer.
"We're saved?"
"Thank goodness!"
Yamauchi Haruki and the others shouted excitedly.
They'd been about to head back
