The Considerate School Administration

"Everyone, could you please listen to me for a moment?"

Chang Shui Jing had intended to head out immediately to scout for information, but Hirata, the green-haired good guy who had quickly raised his hand to invite his classmates to introduce themselves right at the start of the term, had stopped him.

He looked like a genuinely kind person, so Chang Shui followed the atmosphere and stopped in his tracks despite himself.

"Agreed! Agreed! We should at least know each other's names."

"My name is Hirata Yosuke, and I've been particularly fond of soccer since middle school..."

In short:

Yamauchi Haruki and Ike Kanji were lechers with nothing but women on their minds, Sudo Ken was a red-haired gorilla, Kushida Kikyo was a social butterfly, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was a poker-faced, ordinary student, and Horikita Suzune was a long-haired, black-haired tsundere aiming for Class A. I can't remember the rest of the characters.

"Chang Shui Jing, I like fitness and reading. I have something to attend to, so I'm leaving. That is all."

Chang Shui slipped away immediately after speaking. Kushida had wanted to say something, but her attention was drawn away by the girls around her; by the time she reacted, he was already gone.

The cafeteria was spacious and bright. Pushing open the heavy glass doors, the rich aroma of food rushed toward him, a mixture of freshly made curry, fried chicken, and hot miso soup that made one unable to help but swallow hard.

A particularly long line caught Chang Shui's attention.

[Free Dishes, Healthy Vegetables]

Chang Shui walked up and noticed the large characters posted on the window.

(This school is unexpectedly kind. Are vegetables free? Eating these for weight loss will save me so much money.)

Chang Shui nodded silently and looked at the upperclassmen in the line.

(They don't look too good. If they're losing weight with such poor complexions, could it be that thin people get preferential treatment at this school? They're willing to starve themselves to the point of illness; the people at this school are truly interesting.)

He sighed internally at the school's eccentricity.

While wandering around, he walked into the convenience store. It still had free daily necessities, not even bearing price tags.

(Who the hell would dare use these? It's all high-tech additives. However, the prices of other goods here are no different from the outside, so there's no further information. The entrance ceremony is about to start, I should go listen.)

Walking into the nearby gymnasium, Chang Shui found his Class D section and observed his surroundings silently.

Since it was the freshman ceremony, he would likely be dealing with these people for the next three years, so Chang Shui observed them carefully.

(Speaking of which, this school is really free; there are all kinds of hairstyles and hair colors. It almost makes me want to dye my hair yellow.)

The entrance ceremony was long and tedious. The one on stage was the third-year Student Council President Horikita Manabu. The President emphasized, the President pointed out, the President attached importance to.

The only information he remembered was that those who joined the student council could not join other clubs. He didn't know who set such a bizarre rule, but being a ghost member wouldn't affect anything anyway; it was truly boring.

"Dismissed!"

Following the final sentence, the crowd scattered. Chang Shui was finally saved.

Next, it was time to procure supplies. He could buy quite a lot of things. If he cooked entirely for himself and spent sparingly, he could last for four months. This school wasn't in the suburbs of Tokyo; if he hunted a wild boar, he could eat for a long time. I miss you, Bear Grylls.

Note: 100,000 yen ~ 4,800 yuan.

"Oh my, isn't that Ayanokoji and Horikita? I didn't expect you two to get familiar so quickly."

Chang Shui ran into two acquaintances on his way to the convenience store.

"Don't act like you're so familiar with us. Do you want to be a social butterfly too?"

Horikita replied with her usual cold and hurtful attitude. Chang Shui, on the other hand, was curious about how Ayanokoji had become friends with Horikita.

"Hello, Chang Shui. Your introduction today was very energetic."

Ayanokoji said with a blank expression.

"Likewise, Ayanokoji. Are you two also going to buy daily necessities? Do you want to go together?"

"Suit yourself!"

Looking at the fierce Horikita, Chang Shui thought to himself that Ayanokoji would have a hard time in the future.

"Hmph, the defective products of Class D." Not far away, someone muttered softly.

(Hey, hey, someone is launching an AOE insult at me. I can't just pretend I didn't hear that, kid.)

Chang Shui thought to himself.

"Excuse me!"

After bidding farewell to the duo, Chang Shui Jing walked toward the culprit.

"Oi, you were talking bad about me just now, weren't you? You ill-mannered brat."

"Ha? Calling someone else a brat when we're in the same grade."

"You haven't joined a club yet, right, brat? Are you interested in the Sanda Club? I want to go in with you and spar a bit."

Chang Shui stared fixedly at Totsuka Yahiko, with the momentum of someone ready to fight to the bitter end.

"So Class D isn't entirely made of defective products. I am Katsuragi Kohei of Class A, and this is Totsuka Yahiko. I will retract what Yahiko said just now on his behalf."

If you can't find the book title, try searching for the author; perhaps it just changed its name!

"Katsuragi-san."

"That's enough. Let's go."

Katsuragi ordered his follower Totsuka in an irresistible tone.

After the two from Class A left, the duo remained where they were, silently watching the curtain fall on a good show.

"So weak, Class A. Whatever, there will be plenty of time to get back at this smug brat later."

Nagami declared his victory.

"That was really cool, Nagami. You made the Class A guys back down so easily."

Ayanokoji remarked with a deadpan expression.

"I have things to do, you guys go ahead."

Nagami changed his mind and headed toward the track, beginning his warm-up exercises for the day.

"Could Nagami be the same type of person as Sudo?"

Horikita compared Nagami's image just now with Sudo in her mind.

"Who knows!" Ayanokoji said.

A one-kilometer run, 100 push-ups, 50 pull-ups, and 100 crunches. Why not 10 kilometers? Because cardio burns muscle.

His overflowing energy caught the attention of a senior from the Track and Field Club; a fresh face, likely a first-year student full of drive.

"Oi, freshman, want to join the Track and Field Club?"

"Sorry, senior, I've already joined the Sanda Club."

Nagami used the Sanda Club as a shield to decline.

"What a pity, what a pity."

What the senior didn't know was that when the Sanda Club senior invited him, Nagami had answered that he had already joined the Track and Field Club.

The dormitory was a luxurious single room with a bathroom, a small kitchenette, and a comfortable bed. It would cost at least 30,000 points outside; just lying around here earns 1,000 points a day—the school's kindness is endless.

This is Tokyo, after all. Boys and girls are in the same building, just separated by floor levels, and they run into each other in the elevator on the way to school.

It's too easy for boyfriends and girlfriends to visit each other. I wonder if any children have been born in the school's history? Probably not, since the people who come to this school aren't stupid.

Alright, time to start researching the phone.

Soon, it was the second day of school. Small cliques began to form in the class: the Idiot Trio, the Gal Trio, The Two Loners, and so on.

Which group is Nagami in? The "Go-Home" Club.

"Um, Nagami-kun, can we exchange Line contacts? I want to be friends with everyone."

Kushida approached him; the "good girl" had been keen on making friends ever since school started.

"With pleasure."

"Me too, me too, little angel."

Ike and Yamauchi chimed in. The constant noise from these two small-fry made Nagami annoyed—not out of jealousy for them approaching a beauty, but a natural dislike for people he didn't click with. Even with Koenji, he just felt speechless rather than annoyed.

Could it be that I have the potential to be gay? He quickly suppressed that thought in his mind.

They had barely started school and were already spending all their money. Yamauchi spent 90,000 points on a single game console. He must be silently thanking the kind school for giving them so many points; the school's kindness is compounding interest.

I really look forward to the innocent, devastated expressions on their faces when the time comes; it will definitely be interesting.

The small-fry beside him were carefree. In a sense, being a goldfish is great because without memory, there are no worries, and depression is out of the question.

The smarter a person is, the more worries they have, because the mind always outpaces the body, which can lead to physical collapse.

Just like Nietzsche, who claimed to be the sun but eventually went insane.

Nagami opened the browser and searched for e-books to kill time. After searching for a long time, he found that they all required payment.

Damn this world of copyright; every book costs money. Can't they let you read before you pay? It's not like I'm not going to pay.

I haven't been to the school library yet; I should find some time to go.

(Does the school really give out 100,000 points?) Nagami pondered.

When he tried to confirm this with upperclassmen during the break, they were all tight-lipped and insisted on charging money. Their resistance to being probed already gave him the answer.

Everything in this school requires points to buy. Would they really be kind enough to give out so many points?

(If I were the school administration, I'd only give out 10,000 points and make them all go work on an assembly line.)

(If I want to get points quickly, it's either robbery or fraud, but the timing isn't right yet. Only by keeping a low profile can one make a fortune.)
