In Classroom of the Elite, My Future Daughter Provides Assists

If one could cook for themselves, they could save a significant amount on food expenses.

Classmate Shirogane used to bring homemade bento boxes from home, so he knew exactly how much money could be saved.

Just thinking about it, however, felt strange.

Because.

Every student was given 100,000 points, equivalent to 100,000 in living expenses. Under such abundant conditions, would anyone actually need to cook for themselves?

Was it because the school wanted everyone to have the ability to cook?

Or was it that most students required gas and the means to cook, which was why the school provided the corresponding facilities?

So why would there be a situation where most students needed to cook to save money?

Thinking this, Shirogane took out his phone and began to list the daily necessities he needed to purchase.

When they arrived at this school, they were told to bring nothing, so everything from toiletries to quilts and casual clothing had to be bought.

Looking at it this way, perhaps nearly half of the 100,000 points he had just received would have to be spent on settling in.

Although these daily necessities could be used for a long time after this initial purchase, it gave one a sense of insecurity: would there be this much next month?

Right.

That was Shirogane's first reaction.

This month, everyone was a freshman, and purchasing daily necessities would cost the thrifty perhaps 20,000 to 30,000 private points, while the expensive ones might cost 40,000 to 50,000.

Looking at it this way, only 40,000 to 50,000 points would remain for food and other consumption.

As long as the prices inside and outside the school didn't change, 40,000 to 50,000 points were enough to support a high school student's living expenses.

And since 40,000 to 50,000 a month was enough for living expenses, why did the school need to provide so many points?

Therefore.

It was highly likely that these points would fluctuate. They would definitely be cut.

Thinking this.

Classmate Shirogane walked out of the dormitory; he also had to go out shopping.

Furthermore, the dormitory building housed both men and women, with boys on floors 1-4 and girls on floors 5-8.

When Shirogane received his room card from the dormitory manager on the first floor, he had asked, and all the students in this building were freshmen.

The upperclassmen's dormitory buildings were further back.

[You have observed the living conditions, and you think they are quite good.]

[You have begun to estimate what items need to be purchased.]

[However, I suggest you don't be too frugal. Money is something to be earned, not saved.]

Hmm.

While Shirogane was thinking, another voice appeared in his mind as usual.

It was just that Shirogane did not agree with the other party's words.

He believed that frugality could also save a considerable amount of money.

However, increasing income and reducing expenditure was the most cost-effective approach.

"Have you ever lived in such a small room?" Shirogane suddenly asked out of the blue.

[No, my house is very big. No, wait. The weather is so nice today. It's only 11:30, if you go out now, you can still eat at the shopping street.]

[There is a beef hot pot restaurant that is very delicious.]

The Narration System was chattering away again.

"..." Shirogane.

But Shirogane had already realized something.

So, this Narration System really did have some issues.

Although the other party talked a lot and could occasionally provide some information, this narrator might be alive. And since the other party had a very large house, their race should also be human.

Then why were they bound to him? And what was this talk of being "destined"?

Shirogane was puzzled.

However, for the time being, other than trying to encourage him to interact with the silver-haired girl, there didn't seem to be any harm.

Shirogane then closed his dormitory door and began to walk downstairs.

His dormitory room was 404; he could take the stairs or choose to take the elevator.

Although Shirogane's physical stamina was not bad, he liked to save effort when he could.

"Beep!"

As the elevator doors opened, there were already two girls inside.

Both were very attractive.

One was a girl I hadn't met before, sporting beautiful short blonde hair. Short hair is usually difficult for an ordinary girl to pull off, but it seemed to suit her perfectly without any effort.

Because she was born extremely cute.

She gave off the feeling of seeing a little angel.

The other was the black-haired, fox-eyed girl I had met once before.

Just like in the gymnasium, the black-haired, fox-eyed girl still radiated a cold, aloof aura.

"Horikita-san, are you heading to the shopping district later? Our classmates have already gone, saying the points can be used there. Of course, I'm not bragging about how many people I know—"

As the elevator doors opened, the short-haired blonde girl was chatting with the fox-eyed girl, who kept a cold expression on her face.

So, the surname of that black-haired, fox-eyed girl must be Horikita.

Horikita.

Shirogane had encountered this name today, specifically at the gymnasium.

[I am the Student Council President, Horikita Manabu.]

Looking at it this way, President Horikita and the black-haired, fox-eyed girl in front of me shared the same hair color.

Though it's normal for siblings to have different hair colors; Shirogane himself had short blonde hair, while his sister Kei had long silver hair.

Still, the facial features of President Horikita and this Horikita-san did feel somewhat similar.

"..." The fox-eyed girl called Horikita remained expressionless. She stood by the elevator buttons, her right hand resting on the button that held the doors open.

"Are you coming in?"

The other party said coldly.

In other words, she was asking if he wanted to board the elevator.

"Yes, please let me in." Shirogane hurried inside.

"Hello there." The cute girl with short blonde hair took the initiative to greet Shirogane, revealing a sweet smile. "I'm Kushida Kikyo from Class D, a freshman who just enrolled this year."

Her smile was sweet and her voice was adorable, making one feel a bit lightheaded.

"Hello." Shirogane nodded. "I'm Shirogane Miyuki from Class C."

As he said this, Shirogane looked toward Horikita-san. Did that mean he should ask for Horikita-san's name?

"..." The fox-eyed girl didn't seem to have any intention of responding.

"Come to think of it, the Student Council President's name is also Horikita," Shirogane said. "And you look somewhat similar to President Horikita. Are you siblings or something?"

"..." The fox-eyed girl.

The fox-eyed girl looked over, expressionless. "I am Horikita Suzune."

"..." Kushida.

!!?

"Kushida-san?" Shirogane noticed that Kushida-san's expression seemed to stiffen suddenly.

"Ah, it's nothing, I just felt like the air conditioning was turned up a bit high, and it was blowing right at me," Kushida-san said.

There was no air conditioning in the elevator, only a fan mounted above, and the fan was indeed blowing toward her.

Mistaking a fan for air conditioning was clearly not normal.

But if she said so, then so be it.

Shirogane felt that although Kushida-san was cute and approachable, her mood was definitely unstable right now.

ps: I want monthly tickets, brothers.

ps: Ying ying ying.

Chapter 007: The Troublemaking Ryuen-kun!

Although he rode the elevator with two beautiful girls, they left as soon as it reached the first floor.

It was safe to assume that, like him, they had chosen to return to their dorms first before heading to the shopping district to buy daily necessities.

However.

The previous statement made by that Kushida-san was worth noting.

First, since the school had accepted so many students and promised free tuition and living expenses, there was no reason for them to withhold funds. Therefore, the 100,000 private points in the mobile student ID should be directly available to spend as money.

Yet, Kushida-san was able to confirm this quickly through students in her class. Students from her class had gone to the scene to verify it.

So.

Shirogane-kun discovered a problem.

That was, a class group chat hadn't been established yet.

Usually, a class would form a group chat, but his own class didn't seem to have anyone taking the lead to do so.

However, it was only the first day of school, and since the students had been bombarded with all sorts of information, it was normal to overlook this for a while.

So, in such a short time, for Kushida-san to have classmates who could confirm information, did that perhaps suggest that Kushida-san's social skills were quite strong?

Classmate Shirogane thought this to himself, only to notice that his mind remained completely silent.

Obviously.

The situation was similar to when he had encountered her in the gymnasium.

It seemed that the Narration System in his head would go silent whenever he encountered Horikita-san.

This was truly a strange phenomenon.

As he thought this, just as Shirogane was about to walk out of the first-floor lounge, he suddenly noticed a girl sitting on a bench to the side. The girl had her feet together and her hands resting on her knees; upon noticing Shirogane walk out, she stood up.

She walked straight over to him.

"I figured that once Classmate Shirogane finished looking at the dorms, he would head to the shopping district."

So, was she specifically waiting here for him like a hunter waiting for a rabbit?

"Also, I still feel that the 100,000 points the school issued us is a bit too much. With 40 students in a class and four classes in total, that makes 160 people, meaning this expenditure alone is 16 million. This is just for this month; if the amount is the same next month, it would be quite frightening. At the very least, there will be issues regarding expenditures."

The girl speaking was the student who sat in front of Shirogane in class.

Classmate Shiina Hiyori.

She had beautiful silver hair and a sweet, lovely appearance, a completely different style from the cold Horikita Suzune he had met in the elevator or the angel-like Kushida Kikyo.

However, Shirogane wasn't focused on her appearance right now, but rather on her words.

In other words, Classmate Shiina belonged to the type of person who enjoyed using her brain.

Moreover, she also seemed to quite enjoy reading.

Shirogane had brought back all 17 books in total, while Classmate Shiina had also brought back a total of 8 books across 4 subjects.
