There's a Traitor Among You!
Therefore, it's highly likely that they will have to be absent and unable to take the exam.
So.
That guy in Class D has no restrictions.
Therefore, some seemingly impossible scenarios may actually occur.
After all.
The previous ordinary exams seemed to have nothing special about them, yet the other party's account was able to accumulate a sum of 7 million.
So, what will this exam, which is considered a "freebie" exam, be like?
Does the amount of points given determine the size of the other party's appetite?
This sounds absurd, but it's not entirely impossible.
Thinking this way.
The Chairman placed his hands on the table, crossed.
He continued looking at his phone.
Sakayanagi Narimori: Is this your own judgment?
Horikita Manabu: No, I received a message before I received the documents you sent.
As Horikita Manabu said this, he sent over a screenshot.
The image shows a person whose name is blurred out by a mosaic.
Therefore, we can only see the messages he sent to Horikita Manabu.
[I might have to go all out on this exam. Please inform the Chairman that if I give it my all, it might put his budget on the line.]
Although Horikita Manabu covered up the other person's name, the Chairman still confirmed the other person's identity.
It seems I wasn't mistaken after all; this guy might be planning to make his move during this exam.
The other party probably guessed that since this exam would be considered a final exam, and there was also the absolute privilege of Luxury Cruise Ship, the score and reward given to them would certainly not be low.
That's why they're working so hard.
In other words, they're going to go all out, so it's understandable that Horikita would be worried about budget issues on his end.
Chairman Sakayanagi tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
"Let's postpone this year's second-grade exams."
"Tell the second-grade teachers not to announce the test scores for now."
The Chairman concluded.
"Because this first-year exam might teach us a lesson, we'll schedule the second-year exams after the first-year exams are over."
"That's what the Chairman said."
"You mean to say?"
"There might be a problem with the point values and rewards we assigned for this exam?"
The members of the question-setting team also looked over.
"That's how it was arranged before."
The other members nodded in agreement; they were all experienced question setters.
"I hope everyone's work is error-free, but I also accept criticism that is unfounded."
"However, we always need to leave room for redemption, so I've decided to postpone the second-year exams. If the first-year budget is over budget, then the second-year budget will be reduced accordingly."
"The overall amount remains at a fixed level."
"That's what the Chairman said."
I see.
If that's the case, then delaying the second-year exams would indeed serve as a supplement to addressing the bugs in the first-year exams.
And.
They didn't think there would be any problems with the consistently stable exam schedule, so they wanted to see how this year's freshmen would develop.
Meanwhile, the second-grade exams started to lose their appeal from the last month of last year. Although there were gains and losses among the four classes, and points were added to each other's scores, the distribution of exam points felt like a complete takeover.
There was a feeling of being suddenly controlled.
Therefore, when preparing for the second-grade exams, they will also make more adjustments in order to create competition between classes.
However, I felt that doing so would not be very fruitful, because Class 2-A was far ahead and seemed unshakeable. But this was only the beginning of the second year, and it was too early to determine Class A's status at graduation.
Although the school only offers Class A, it hopes that students in other classes can also benefit from their learning experience at this school.
Then.
The school has made a decision quickly.
As the Student Council President, Horikita Manabu also officially began confirming the point values.
Time quickly came to lunch break.
"Ah owe--"
Horikita Manabu, who was in the Student Council, sneezed.
"Is the President catching a cold?"
This was noticed by the diligent and meticulous secretary, Tachibana Akane.
I'm not sure.
Horikita Manabu: "But I'll choose to go to bed early tonight."
"It's just that the first-year Island Exam are about to begin."
Tachibana Akane said that she had already received a notice from the school that first-year students must stay away for 14 days.
And last year, they were in the same situation.
I wonder which island the new students will be on this year and what kind of exams they will take.
"This year's first-year students are quite interesting."
"Furthermore, the scores of classes A, B, and C are very close right now, so I'm optimistic about their chaotic battle."
Nagumo also said.
Nagumo currently somewhat adopting a wait-and-see approach.
"However, we did have some problems with our second-year exams."
Miyabi Nagumo looked at Horikita Manabu.
"For this exam, we in the second grade didn't announce the specific scores or rewards."
He knew that the Student Council President could determine the specific marks for each exam.
The school will give the President a range of choices, for example, a score range of 50-150 points, from which the President can then select.
However, when the exam rules were to be announced today, the teachers only communicated the exam arrangements without providing details about the point values.
This was somewhat unexpected.
Although it didn't matter to him how the test was conducted, he had already managed to get representatives from all four classes to sit down and listen. So, whenever the scores were announced, he was the one who made the arrangements.
But he also doesn't like being kept in suspense.
So he looked at Horikita Manabu, wondering if Horikita Manabu hadn't done his job properly, causing the confirmation to be delayed.
"This time, the school has allocated a budget of over 60 million for the first and second grades."
Horikita Manabu said.
"The first-year students will be leaving school tomorrow, so they will take the exam first."
"And if there's any budget left over, it will all be used for the second-year exams."
Horikita Manabu glanced at Nagumo and said.
Oh.
Oh, I see.
Oh, I see.
Nagumo's brow twitched instantly.
Then I felt a sense of joy.
Because if that's the case, then second graders would definitely be willing!
Although the exams are different each time, he still knows how many points he can get each time. Especially since first-year students are still in a stage of competition with each other, and the three classes A, B, and C are probably going to fight to the death.
How many points could one get on the Island Exam?
It's obvious.
In their previous year, most students didn't get many points.
So, with a budget of over 60 million, even if this exam is a freebie for the first-year students, they probably won't get much. A lot of the budget will have to be allocated to the second-year students this time.
If that's the case, then postponing the exam would definitely be something I'd be willing to do!
Nagumo was initially distressed that he had been scammed out of millions of points, but now he doesn't care at all.
P. S.: 12,500 words today, 8,500 words to pay off debts, 34,000 words in debt, still 25,500 words owed.

Chapter 62 There's a mole among your men!
The first-year students were in good spirits after being informed that they would soon be embarking on a 14-day luxury cruise.
They have already been informed by their respective homeroom teachers of the items they need to bring.
First, there are personal toiletries, which is normal, and then there are changes of clothes, which is also normal. After all, you'll be traveling for two whole weeks.
However, even the change of clothes has limitations: you must bring sportswear. The style of sportswear is the same for both men and women, consisting of a jacket and long pants, which allows for easy movement.
This is where things become abnormal.
So any student with a brain would realize, upon careful thought, that the school might not really be sending everyone on vacation.
After all.
Which school lets you go on vacation and then makes you wear unflattering sportswear?
However, it was still quite lively for the students in Class D. Most of them had basically come to think of this ship trip as a fun trip. And with the addition of 5000 points of living expenses, some of them had already started planning to buy some snacks to go on the trip, just like children going on a school trip.
Then, the following comments appeared in the class group chat for Class 1-D.
"Um, everyone, I think if we go on the ship, maybe our class can make some arrangements."
"For example, Chabashira-sensei mentioned that everything on the ship is free, including food, drinks, and even instant noodles."
"So, could we take some of our share now, and then bring it off the ship after the trip is over?"
This was just a student's suggestion, but it quickly attracted the attention of the students.
"Is it even possible to do that?"
"If we can get the drinks and instant noodles off the ship, then we can do whatever we want with them later, right?"
"Then I'm going to eat instant noodles every day for the next 30 days!"
As a result, the class group chat for Class 1-D suddenly became lively.
Then, a student who wished to remain anonymous tagged Chabashira Sae.
Chabashira-sensei, but this time was different; this student pulled her in.
Chabashira Sae:...
After joining the class group, Chabashira can also see the students' comments.
And she probably understood why she had been dragged into this.
