205. Kushida's Three-Year Comeback Plan; Taking Advantage of Others

Looking at the cold and aloof Kushida Kikyo in front of him, who exuded an aura of "don't talk to me," Aragaki Shun felt a subtle sense of déjà vu.

"Are you imitating Horikita Suzune?"

"Hehe~ Isn't this the kind of thing you men like?"

With a hint of disdain for trash in his eyes, Kushida sneered twice, and the surrounding atmosphere grew even colder.

Unlike the energetic and gentle persona she presents to the public, or the dark and gloomy persona she hides in private, she is similar to Horikita Suzune at the beginning of the school year, only wanting to stay out of things, not needing to rely on anyone, and at the same time unable to trust anyone.

Something's off; it looks really awkward.

Aragaki Shun's eyes showed a thoughtful expression. He had previously asked Kushida to use the correct method to communicate with her, but he didn't know what the girl was thinking, and now she had turned out like this.

"Suzune's aloof and unapproachable personality isn't very likable," Aragaki Shun calmly retorted to Kushida's point of view. "I prefer the kind of girl who is obedient, considerate, and easy to get along with."

"Of course, as a lover, it would be even better if she could rely on me a little more."

He has always believed that romantic partners will most likely evolve into family members over time.

Therefore, it's better to keep the relationship with your girlfriend relaxed and enjoyable. If your partner only brings you torment, anxiety, and resentment, you might as well stay single.

This is probably why, despite having so many top-tier beauties to choose from through Advanced Nurturing, his first few girlfriends were relatively ordinary.

After all, those top-tier beauties are all very individualistic, and he himself has a very strong personality. If they can't coordinate well, then getting close to each other will be like clashing needles and wheat awns, and it's very easy for conflicts to arise.

The biggest example is Kushida Kikyo in front of us. The girl is undoubtedly at the top of the list of first-year girls, but as for her compatibility with Aragaki Shun... whether it's the little angel on the surface or the dark girl in private, it's actually fine, but when both sides are present, it makes Kushida seem rather annoying.

From this perspective, he does indeed seem somewhat arrogant.

"Kamuro Masumi, Ibuki Mio, and Horikita Suzune." Kushida muttered the names of three Student Council Member, looking coldly at the Leader of Class A without saying a word.

"They are subordinates, and their requirement is to talk less and do more, efficiently completing all tasks."

After a casual explanation, Aragaki Shun stopped chatting about the topic and started getting down to business.

The conflict between Manabe and the others and Karuizawa was Manabe, followed by intensified control over Class C and Class D:

"... In order to more effectively unify the two classes, I have decided to promote two more leaders from among you, so that they can work together with Ibuki and Karuizawa."

"Manabe Shiho is the chosen candidate for Class C, while the selection for Class D is still undecided. Do you have any thoughts on this?"

Aragaki Shun asked directly, without any beating around the bush, and even mentioned the other candidates, "If there isn't one, I can go to Yosuke Hirata. If he doesn't agree... then let Horikita Suzune fill in for now."

Aside from these two, Yukimura Teruhiko could be considered a copy of Horikita Suzune, but he didn't have an older brother who was the Student Council President.

The other students, such as Matsushita Chiaki and Shinohara Satsuki, are all members of the Karuizawa group. Choosing them would not be of much benefit to controlling Class D; it would only undermine the authority within the Karuizawa group.

Kushida Kikyo: "..."

I just want to ask, did you ever give me the option to refuse?

To be honest, she really regretted it. If she had known, she would have accepted Aragaki Shun's invitation to date back then, and she wouldn't be in this dilemma now.

She should have realized long ago that even in junior high, she couldn't achieve her goals. Now, coming to this crappy school that values class competition, how could she possibly gain everyone's trust and become the most popular student?

Her goal was shattered once again, and for a moment she had no idea what she could do, which is why she went hysterically to Aragaki Shun after seeing Wang Meiyu's betrayal.

However... recalling what happened that night, Kushida Kikyo couldn't help but tremble.

Who are these two, human or ghost?

Or are they actually agents trained by an unknown organization, capable of appearing and disappearing without a trace, like in TV dramas, silently assassinating people in the shadows?

Not daring to think any further, Kushida Kikyo kept a straight face, trying her best to imitate Horikita Suzune's indifferent demeanor, as if she had become a robot devoid of emotion.

"I understand. I will help you handle the internal affairs of Class D, but only if you publicly support my identity."

"That's natural." Aragaki Shun nodded, and then mentioned the perks.

"When I initially appointed representatives in the three classes, I promised them future opportunities to transfer to other classes, which is equivalent to Twenty Million Personal Points."

"But now it seems that neither Ibuki nor Karuizawa's work is satisfactory."

It can only be said that both of them lacked the necessary abilities; even with his backing, they still couldn't manage the entire class effectively.

Perhaps it was because he gave too much at the beginning?

After all, they've already secured their promotion to Class A, so it's normal to start slacking off in their daily work.

"So as punishment, I will still transfer them to Class A before graduation, but the Private Points I give them will be reduced to 15 million, and the remaining 5 million will be transferred to your and Manabe Shiho's accounts when the settlement is completed."

Upon hearing this, Kushida Kikyo's pupils suddenly contracted.

She was fortunate enough to be selected as VIP by the school for this Special Exam, and will receive 1 million Private Points after the exam results are released.

If she could get another 5 million from Aragaki Shun, her estimated savings would suddenly increase to 6 million. If she could find a way to get another 4 million, she could theoretically apply for transfer assistance to Class A.

Therefore, she has a good chance of graduating from Class A and then receiving a recommendation from the school to go to the prestigious university or company she wants.

It's still really frustrating to think about. Horikita Suzune is one thing, since she has an older brother who's the Student Council President, but why can Karuizawa Kei just sit back and relax while she has to figure out how to raise money?

Seeing this, Aragaki Shun smiled enticingly and said, "As the class leader, accumulating millions of Private Points is actually a very simple matter."

"Class A and Class B have a habit of saving class funds. After this exam, students in Class D should also have some extra money. If you can establish a class fund system with Karuizawa, things should be much easier in the future."

Haha~ That's easy for you to say. If you want to get money from people like Kanji Ike or Yamauchi Haruki, you might as well just cut off their flesh.

Kushida Kikyo rolled her eyes. "Aragaki- san, do you even know why Class D is called Class D?"

"It's not like everyone has to pay class fees. Just let those who want to pay hand them over."

"Do you know what common interests mean?" the Leader of Class A asked rhetorically, then continued, "Managing subordinates is nothing more than a combination of kindness and severity. If you want your classmates to hand over class funds, you first need to determine with them where the money will be used."

"Let's set a very simple goal first: the whole class can save money together. Then, at graduation, we can calculate how many students we can help transfer to another class. We can then rank them according to their contributions, or simply draw lots to decide who gets those transfer spots."

"Of course, some rules can be established beforehand. For example, those students who successfully go solo by using class funds should compensate those who contributed class funds but benefited nothing by paying 1.5, 2, or even 3 times the amount in cash after graduation..."

As Aragaki Shun narrated, the brown-haired girl's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and countless thoughts raced through her mind in an instant.

Is this the perspective of a class leader?

No wonder she endures the disgust of smiling everywhere she goes, yet her influence pales in comparison to theirs.

The gap is too big; I can only serve as an emotional dumping ground, while they can guide the group and create a brand new future.

With that in mind, the brown-haired girl listened attentively to Aragaki Shun's line of thought while mentally assessing how many people in the class would actually support the class fund allocation.

First of all, students like Yukimura Teruhiko, who are eager to get an A, are definitely the most proactive.

Then, as long as Karuizawa Kei took the initiative to stand up, a considerable number of people in the class would not dare to voice their objections.

With her strong support and that of Yosuke Hirata, most of Class D would likely participate in the plan, driven by the atmosphere.

As for the few remaining die-hards, they can't benefit without money. Considering the eccentricities of those few, this might actually be a good thing.

With that in mind, Kushida Kikyo calculated the amount of money she could keep after work.

The three VIP in this exam each received 1 million Private Points, while the rest received 50,000 points each, totaling over 4 million points.

If we include her and Karuizawa's quotas, that's 24 million yen. At this rate, raising 40 million or even 50 million yen before graduation shouldn't be a problem.

If Class A is still willing to provide assistance, that would be at least 4 or 5 transfer slots.

Although we don't know if there will be any unexpected events along the way, as long as we present this calculation result, it might actually fool the class.

Wang Meiyu left. Karuizawa and Horikita were definitely leaving. She didn't want to be left alone in the garbage dump, being harassed by Yamauchi, Ike, and the others every day.

Seeing the flicker of desire in Kushida's eyes, Aragaki Shun patted the girl's shoulder with a smile, his tone becoming increasingly seductive.

"Think about it more carefully; trust gained by pleasing others is never reliable."

"I've always believed that ability is the foundation of all actions. If you can graduate from Class A, get the school's support, and reach a higher platform... don't you think that will earn you more praise from others?"

"Glory belongs to the strong, it is the spoils of the victor, and it can never be obtained by currying favor."

Subconsciously, Kushida Kikyo's body trembled, and Aragaki Shun's seductive words kept swirling in her mind.

Unconsciously, she began to fantasize in the direction indicated by the Leader of Class A.

If she could graduate from Class A and then be recommended by the school for a higher status, like entering the University of Tokyo... wouldn't she be able to wash away the shadows of the past and once again enjoy the attention of those around her?

It should be possible.

At the very least, her parents will definitely brag about her to all their relatives and friends!

When the three-year period ends, I'll return to my junior high school with my University of University of Tokyo acceptance letter and invite my former classmates to a celebration...

Taking a deep breath, Kushida slowly calmed his inner excitement, but his eyes lost their hesitation and revealed an unprecedented determination.

"I need a more detailed plan, and Karuizawa needs to fully support me..."

Seeing that Kushida Aragaki Shun indeed come to his senses, Aragaki Shun chuckled and naturally wouldn't refuse these requests.

He plans to use bait to lure students from Class C and Class D, making them hesitant to spend money recklessly and instead encouraging them to save their Private Points so they can send their best students over to Class A, thus contributing to the growth of Class A's strength.

In short, Class A has now passed the stage of needing to painstakingly recruit talent.

In the next stage, students from lower-ranked classes should voluntarily come to Class A for interviews to prove their abilities.

Then he can decide whether to provide them with assistance in transferring to another class, depending on the situation.

After agreeing on the terms with Kushida Kikyo, Aragaki Shun sent an email to Karuizawa, handing over the task and then sending Kushida to discuss with them how to fool the people in Class D.

According to the plan, only the negotiations with Manabe Shiho were still unresolved.

However, this is basically not difficult.

For this strong and glamorous woman, she would be willing to be promoted to a manager of Class C and act like a tyrant every day for the 5 million Private Points promised by Aragaki Shun!

They're so good to me, I feel uneasy if I don't reciprocate in kind.

Slurp~ How about coming to my room tonight so we can have a late-night chat?

Seeing the expression on Manabe's face as if he were about to wipe away drool, Aragaki Shun remained expressionless, but his heart was filled with subtle emotions.

On a cruise ship, unless there's Private Points allocation system, aren't rooms normally shared by four people from the same class?

Did your roommates agree to let me come to your room tonight?

"Hehe~ Nanami, Saki, and Rika are all my good sisters, they definitely won't say anything."

So they really are inviting me to a party...

Upon seeing this, the Leader of Class A fell into thought.

He had thought that, with the indulgence of his three girlfriends, he had gradually transformed into a proactive predator.

But when faced with this kind of sexy girl, I realized again that I was still a bit too conservative.

So many people at this school are lusting after him!

With a silent wave, Aragaki Shun dismissed him with a serious expression, "Go and finish your work first!"

"If you do well, I might reward you, but if you don't have the ability, don't even think about climbing the corporate ladder through an office romance."

In short, business is the most important thing.

Moreover, Manabe and Karuizawa both project the same public persona, making them prone to becoming arrogant and spoiled. They shouldn't be allowed to be too indulgent at first; they need to be disciplined several times.

Let's see if we should grant her request after she's able to complete the task.

Um~

Using one's own beauty as a reward feels so strange!

206. Summer exams are over; 85 million Private Points have been earned.

Unsurprisingly, the entire first grade spent their three days of exams leisurely and fun.

According to the previously signed agreement, at the designated time after the exam, everyone would submit the names of the group VIP.

Once the school has processed all the answers, this Special Exam can be considered completely over.

Some breathed a sigh of relief, some looked expectant, and some looked grim. As the students from the four classes walked out of the discussion room with their own thoughts, it meant that everything was set in stone and no one could change it anymore.

Not wanting to be surrounded by the noisy crowd, and as the victor of this VIP Exam and the ultimate beneficiary who reaped most of the benefits, Aragaki Shun decisively concealed his presence, hid from the other students, and secretly ran to the stern deck.

Oh, no! He wasn't alone!

Amidst the boy's playful smile, the Akari girl with turquoise hair and deep blue eyes had been waiting for a long time.

Aragaki Shun wasn't surprised. The two had met in this secluded corner. It was normal for Yamamura Miki, who usually had a low profile and was often overlooked, to occasionally come here to get some fresh air.
