"Explain yourself clearly."

She didn't even care that she was slightly exposed, her face devoid of its usual gentleness.

"It's essentially a trial for the freshmen by the school."

"Didn't the teachers already say that this school distributes points based on our ability?"

"And how they evaluate our ability depends on the daily performance of each class; study habits, absenteeism, tardiness, and leaving early will all cause the class to lose points."

"Given the state of our class, do you really think we'll have any points left this month?"

Kageya Shinjitsu said, looking at Kushida Kikyo, who was sitting on top of him.

"You jerk, why didn't you say so sooner?"

"Even in a situation like this, even if we don't get 100,000 points, it's impossible to have absolutely zero, right?"

Kushida Kikyo pounded her little fists against Kageya Shinjitsu's chest.

If he had told her sooner, she might have been able to do something.

She could have improved her standing within the class.

"Even if I had told you, it would have been useless. Many of the people in our class are just hopeless."

"They can't accomplish anything, but they're great at ruining things."

"As long as one person keeps dragging us down, everyone suffers from this evaluation."

"Based on the current situation, Class D really has zero points left."

Kageya Shinjitsu now fully understood the school's S-System.

After all this time, and having run around as part of the student council, he had completely grasped the situation.

There was no doubt that their class score for this month was zero.

It was said that even the school was a bit shocked.

They had never seen such a trashy class before.

Truly the worst batch ever.

The school administration was speechless, so what else was there to say?

"You knew all along?"

Hearing that there would be no points starting next month, even Kushida Kikyo felt a bit resentful.

Anyone would feel that way upon receiving such news.

"Yeah, I knew pretty much from the first day."

Kageya Shinjitsu didn't hide it.

"Was that what you were doing when you skipped class back then?"

"And you weren't the least bit anxious? How did you manage to get so many points?"

Kushida Kikyo continued to press him, thinking back to that time.

"These are my compensation."

"As for the class, what's there to be anxious about? There's free food, so we won't starve; we just won't have any points, that's all."

"You don't have to worry either. Since we're boyfriend and girlfriend now, it's no problem for me to take you out to eat from time to time."

Kageya Shinjitsu acted as if he were taking good care of her.

"You jerk, if you had told me sooner, I would have saved more points."

Kushida Kikyo thought to herself.

But considering her situation, she probably wouldn't have been able to save much anyway.

She figured she would probably have to lend points to others next month too.

"Wait, I'll give all my points to you, and you can buy whatever I need in the future."

Thinking of this, Kushida Kikyo decided not to keep much money for herself.

She transferred her points to Kageya Shinjitsu.

She could foresee that when no points arrived next month, many of her "good friends" would come to her to borrow money.

"No problem."

"Actually, you don't have to panic so much. There are still some talented people in the class."

"As long as we weed out the trash, we can still keep some useful people."

Kageya Shinjitsu said casually.

"What about the other classes?"

"How are they doing?"

Kushida Kikyo thought of the other classes.

"They must have points, they knew the news a long time ago."

"As for the specifics, you should know by May 1st."

Kageya Shinjitsu also felt that he wouldn't be able to keep it hidden for much longer.

"Knew it a long time ago? You didn't sell out the class, did you?"

Kushida Kikyo quickly caught on.

Based on what she had learned about this guy's personality lately.

It was very likely.

The guy didn't have any sense of class collectivism at all.

Moreover, he didn't like to get too deeply involved with people.

That was the reason he had been brushing her off from the very beginning.

As for now, they should probably be considered fellow patients.

In any case, they both felt the same way.

Chapter 65: May 1st, Class Morning Meeting (Seeking First Subscription)

Regarding the matter of him selling out the class.

"You'll know soon enough."

Kageya Shinjitsu smiled mysteriously, not denying it.

"Bastard."

"So it really is like that."

"What kind of wicked schemes do you have? Tell me quickly."

Kushida Kikyo muttered.

She even gave him a little punch.

After all, she was one of the people being sold out.

"It has nothing to do with me. Even without me, this class would still have zero points."

"At most, I just didn't change the class's fate."

"The ones who truly pushed the class into hell are the others."

"They are the ones who should be blamed; you can't just blame everything on someone else."

Kageya Shinjitsu said indifferently.

He had originally thought he would need to do something.

But he had underestimated this Class D of the first year.

He barely had to do anything to complete his transactions with the other classes.

"You're still as good with words as ever."

"Go explain that to the others. If everyone finds out tomorrow, they'll probably want to tear you to pieces."

Kushida Kikyo said with a sense of schadenfreude.

At the same time, she felt a bit relieved that their relationship wasn't public.

She didn't bother asking why he didn't help the class or anything like that.

That would be a redundant thing to ask.

"Yeah~ seems like that's the case."

"How about I pull you in to draw some of the fire? We can make our relationship public, and then maybe they won't have the heart to scold you, and it'll be fine."

"Maybe their attention won't be so focused on the points anymore."

Hearing his words, Kageya Shinjitsu placed his hand on her leg.

He said it lazily.

"You'd better work hard on your own; I can't draw that kind of fire."

"I feel like announcing it now would only make more guys hate you."

Having inexplicably learned all this information, Kushida Kikyo couldn't stay calm at all.

Thinking of the scene where he would be in trouble later, she didn't even dare to imagine it.

She felt the image was just too beautiful.

Compared to him, Kushida Kikyo felt that what she did in middle school was nothing in comparison.

She even started to wonder if Kageya Shinjitsu would end up getting beaten until he was expelled.

"Then I really am miserable; you're going to be a widow very soon, little Kikyo."

Kageya Shinjitsu wore the expression of a man who was about to be beaten to death on May 1st.

"Don't worry, I'll be sure to avenge you properly."

"Is my being alive hindering your performance?"

"..."

The voices speaking inside the room grew quieter and quieter.

By the end, it was impossible to tell what they were doing in there.

The weather was gloomy, and the rain fell with a rhythmic pitter-patter.

May 1st, one month after the school year began; today, the atmosphere in Class D of the first year was not very good, as overcast as the weather itself.

The private points that were supposed to arrive on the 1st had not been deposited at all.

Most of the students were confused and surprised, and even Kushida Kikyo, who knew the news, pretended to be shocked, acting anxious along with everyone else.

The students communicated within the classroom, and upon discovering that no one had received any points, they breathed a slight sigh of relief.

At the very least, it was impossible that the school wouldn't give points to anyone at all.

Today should be the day you all enter hell.

Seeing the class members completely unaware, Kageya Shinjitsu offered no reminders, already sitting in the corner to watch the show.

He was only missing some cola and popcorn.

From time to time, he could see the resentful gaze of Kushida Kikyo.

But he didn't pay it much mind.

Time ticked away, and the moment of anticipation finally arrived.
