Want to Protect Kushida? Then Teach Her How to Make Money!

"I have no interest in these kinds of events where a bunch of people gather and talk nonsense," Suzune Horikita said.

Is that so?

Horikita seems to dislike interacting with others.

That's why Hirata entrusted him with the task of persuading him.

Unfortunately Hirata, Hachiman also doesn't like spending time with people.

Because.

He also doesn't like going to those noisy Matoba.

And that's what I was thinking.

"Beep beep!"

Hachiman discovered that he had received a message.

But this wasn't sent by Hirata.

It was an unfamiliar number.

[First Year Class C, just you wait and see, I'll get my seat back soon! Now you can sit there for a few more days!]

The tone of the message was somewhat arrogant.

"This information is—" Horikita, who had been diligently reading her book, frowned.

She was also looking at her phone.

Hachiman went over to take a look.

I saw the same number, and then... the same information.

They were all threatening text messages.

In other words, not only Hachiman, but Horikita also received the same message.

"Hachiman!"

At that moment, Kushida jogged over.

"Information!" she said.

Um.

It seems she received the same message.

"And this person is—" But Kushida provided a piece of information. "This number seems to Ryuen from Class D."

Is that so?

Hachiman understood.

It turned out to be a provocation from Ryuen in Class D.

Wait a moment.

Is Ryuen starting to provoke us now? What gives him the right to provoke us?

Chapter 95 Want to protect Kushida? Then teach her how to make money!

The representative of Class D is Ryuen Kakeru. Although he has never met him directly, Hachiman has obtained information about Ryuen through Kushida and other channels.

The class that Ryuen belongs to is stronger than the class that Hachiman belongs to.

But there are also more problems.

Because many of the students in Ryuen's class are delinquents.

They were either the fighting prodigy from this junior high school or the rebellious hot girl from that junior high school.

Hachiman confirmed this when he obtained information about Karuizawa.

And now.

Ryuen, who had already fallen to Class D, sent a provocative message to them.

Does this mean they will be attacked in the next exam?

Only.

"Didn't Hirata receive the message?" Hachiman asked.

He, Horikita, and Kushida are the ones who received the spam texts from Ryuen.

However, Hirata is another person who shares the same goal of aiming for Class A.

Hirata is excellent in every way and is also the glue that holds the class together, so logically he should have received the message.

But he hasn't come over yet.

"Hirata probably didn't receive the message."

"In fact, even if he received the message, he's not looking at it," Kushida replied.

Yes.

Hachiman glanced at Hirata.

After finishing the exam, Ike and Yamauchi were excitedly hugging Hirata.

It seems that he wanted to respond to the invitation Hirata sent earlier to a celebration party together.

Hirata is very busy right now because he's being held by two boys.

There's not much to say about this; before class rivalry and competition, Hirata cared about his classmates.

Hirata's gentle demeanor probably led Ryuen to conclude that he posed no threat.

According to what Hachiman learned from Hirata's account, Hirata, although she seemed gentle, also had her irritable moments. In junior high school, she even used violence to dominate the class, so she was also a skilled fighter.

So, in the matchup against Ryuen, which side would win?

Ryuen is undoubtedly a dangerous person.

Not only her control over the class, but also her actions in the previous Sudō incident, all prove that Ryuen is someone who can use even despicable means.

So having a capable fighter in your class is reassuring.

Because someone like Sudo, who seems like a grumpy older brother but is actually all bark and no bite, makes people feel very insecure.

"We don't need to pay attention to Ryuen's information," Hachiman said. "But..."

"Kushida, may I entrust this to you?" Hachiman asked. "It seems that Ryuen's class doesn't have exam papers for this exam."

"And yet he can still utter such arrogant words."

"Therefore, I suspect he has already obtained information about the Special Exam next month."

As he said this, Hachiman moment.

The speaker meant it, and the listener took it to heart.

Horikita began to ponder.

Kushida maintained her angelic appearance.

"You mean, you want me to go to the upperclassmen or Class C to inquire about the Special Exam next month?" Kushida asked in a very angelic way.

It looks quite thoughtful.

"Yes." Hachiman nodded.

"..." Kushida.

"This concerns the interests of our class," Hachiman said. "If Ryuen already knows about the exam while we don't, we might be targeted."

"Looking at it that way, it definitely needs to be done," Kushida said. "Okay, I'll take care of this task."

As she said this, she even gave a cute wink.

Even so, Hachiman felt that Kushida was in a worse mood than usual.

Are you unhappy because you feel you've been assigned to do chores?

But Kushida, he's protecting you, you know that?

Because when a person gets busy, they don't have much time to think about how they feel.

So this is also to protect you, to prevent you from kicking the railing when you're idle, and then being witnessed by others.

If Kushida's true identity is exposed to other classes, then Hachiman will be in a passive position.

Since she didn't want to drop out of school and didn't want her true identity to be exposed, Kushida had no choice but to become a spy for other classes.

In this way.

The Special Exam has ended.

All students are free again.

A large number of students emptied the library, leaving it deserted once again.

Actually, it's not just first-year students, but also upperclassmen.

They didn't take it seriously when the first-grade test papers were leaked.

But very quickly.

Because of Sakayanagi Arisu to the Student Council, the upperclassmen finally realized that it wasn't just the first-year students who might have had their exam questions leaked and then had problems with the test.

Among them, as a human observer, Hachiman noticed that the second-year students still seemed relaxed.

It seems that Sakayanagi's attempt to get tickets from the second-year students failed.

It was the third-year students who seemed nervous before the exam, and some even went to the library to study. In other words, the third-year students were also being manipulated in this exam.

So.

Now that the written exams are over, you can see the relieved expressions on the faces of the third-year students on campus.

Only.

Neither Sakayanagi nor he would choose to actually leak the senior students' exam papers, because time was too tight and the school could not produce papers that most students could pass.

So, it's perfectly acceptable for upperclassmen to be stubborn and refuse to make a deal with Sakayanagi.

But.

If you can't even figure out this question, or if you're afraid to gamble on Sakayanagi or leak the exam questions, then it means that the third-year students might not be that outstanding.

So, is it true that even the Third-year Class A, Horikita, isn't that outstanding?

Hachiman was thinking about random things, then walked from the second-floor bookshelf to the other side, and then turned back.

Although the school arranges Special Exam every month, the assessments and punishments sometimes even include expulsions.

However, in terms of material resources, Advanced Nurturing High School is indeed excellent.

The library was built to a grand and magnificent scale, and it houses a vast collection of books, perhaps reaching ten million volumes.

Are you looking for a book?

While Hachiman was wandering around the library, he was approached by someone.

She was a very pretty girl with long, silvery-white hair that reached past her shoulders and waist, giving her a very ladylike appearance.

Her skin was as white and translucent as a snow woman.

However, it lacks the coldness of a snow woman and has a touch more human warmth.

Hachiman felt that he had seen this beautiful girl somewhere before, and he had a vague impression of her.

He's just very sensitive to people he's actually met, so having only an impression... or perhaps he's only seen them in the materials.

So you mean a first-year student?

He had previously gone to the Student Council to print out the roster of first-year students, but he didn't look at it all. He just quickly flipped through it, for example, to find out what Ryuen looked like.

And this girl, in his memory, also seemed to be from the Ryuen's class.
