Class A's Teacher: This Is Ridiculous! You Can Even Find Bugs in My Rules! Part 1!
At the same time.
"I think even if Class C manages to make it, it won't be a problem. If they can make it, it will boost the morale of Class A, which will benefit us as well. As for Class C actually making it, that's fine too," Kanzaki said. "I tutored them before, so I know a bit about it."
"Their class is simply not good at anything that requires hard skills, whether it's a regular written test or a physical fitness test."
"So even if you go up, you might fall down," Kanzaki said.
In other words, Hachiman Hikigaya's class also has significant flaws.
"Hachiman and the others have worked very hard too," Ichinose said.
On the Uninhabited Island, Kushida borrowed starting points from their class to exchange for underwear, suggesting that someone from another class might be deliberately trying to sow discord within their class.
Then the class started arguing because of this.
If such a thing happened in their class, they definitely wouldn't start arguing.
Two days have passed since the Special Exam ended.
The school has not made any noise or taken any action against the students in the past two days.
It was as if the remaining few days were truly a reward for the students, allowing them to continue their luxurious trip.
Until the third day.
At that moment, Hachiman was in a KFC restaurant.
He had originally arranged to meet up with Horikita, but Horikita seemed to be reading a book and didn't seem interested in the spicy chicken wings.
So I refused.
The ship offers a variety of services, including a range of expensive restaurants, all of which are free.
Meanwhile, Hachiman is currently eating spicy chicken wings.
"Do you really like these things that much?"
The girl with the blonde ponytail across the table disagreed with Hachiman's taste.
"Everyone can have their own hobbies, right?" Hachiman asked in return.
"No, I just think you're easy to take care of." But Karuizawa shook his head.
Because Hachiman Hikigaya prefers foods that are generally not made at home, if you like these things, you can simply order takeout; there's no need to cook at all.
It reduced the time spent on housework.
"Ahem..." Hachiman Hikigaya quickly defended himself, probably having heard a sensitive word. "I hope someone is willing to take care of me. I just hope they think I'm easy to support."
Perhaps sensing the shock in Karuizawa's eyes after he said that, Hachiman Hikigaya spoke up.
"The reason I asked you out this time is to inform you that I will be giving you 12,000 Private Points every month from now on. This is a benefit I obtained from Class B during the last exam."
"Um... I wasn't really that helpful," Karuizawa quickly waved his hand.
"At least there's something to look forward to," Hachiman Hikigaya said. "As the saying goes, money gives you motivation, doesn't it?"
Is that so?
I get the feeling that you don't just want to get into the Class A, but that you want to start saving money.
Although she really thought about it, Karuizawa.
And at this time.
An announcement came over the ship's loudspeaker, revealing the voice of Tomoya Majima, the homeroom teacher of Class A.
He was also responsible for organizing and announcing the rules before landing on the Uninhabited Island and the results of the exams.
So the students are already very familiar with his voice.
"To all students: The school has just sent out an email with contact information for all students. Please check your mobile phone and follow the instructions."
Majima-sensei's voice came through.
"Also, if you haven't received the email, please request assistance from a nearby faculty member. The information is very important, so please make sure you don't miss anything during the verification process. To reiterate—"
"This is..."
Karuizawa quickly realized what was happening.
Hachiman had already taken out his phone.
[Special Exam is about to begin. Students are requested to assemble in their designated rooms at the designated time. Those who are more than ten minutes late will be punished.]
[Please assemble at Room 204 on the second floor before 6 PM tonight. The journey will take approximately twenty minutes. Please use the restroom and ensure your mobile phone is either unused or switched off before arriving at the meeting point.]
Looking at the email from the school, Hachiman seemed to be deep in thought.
He had already deduced that there would definitely be another exam.
And this is the content of the exam.
But.
"Since a time and place, as well as the required time, were specified, it means that the time and place are not consistent. In other words, this exam will be conducted separately for everyone."
"If that's the case, then it can't be a written test or anything like that."
If it were a regular exam, there would be no need for such a complicated process; simply gathering everyone together would suffice.
But since they are separate.
Then there is only one possibility.
Besides other classes, they probably also need to be wary of their own classmates.
Hachiman knew that he couldn't even muster 10 people in his class.
"Ring ring!"
Just then, the phone suddenly rang, Hachiman quickly answered the call.
"Hachiman!"
Suzune Horikita's voice came through the microphone, "Have you received an email from the school?"
"Received it. What time is it?" Hachiman asked. "And what's the room number?"
"8:40 PM. Room number 204 on the second floor."
"My arrival time is 6 PM. My room number is also room 204 on the second floor."
As Hachiman was making the call, he looked at Karuizawa, Karuizawa obediently held up her phone.
The information she received was the same as that of Hachiman: to meet at 6:00 PM in room 204 on the second floor.
His room number and meeting time were the same as Karuizawa's, indicating that they were in the same group.
Horikita was supposed to meet in room 204 on the second floor, but the meeting time was pushed back to 8:40.
Hachiman frowned. It was 8:40.
From 6:00 to 8:40, there was a gap of two hours and forty minutes.
That is, 160 minutes.
According to the school's email, each group needs 20 minutes.
Therefore, it can be divided into at least eight parts.
Students from the same class gathered in the same room, but at different times.
The school is trying to separate classes. This is not good news.
Because allowing students in your class to do things freely is tantamount to suicide.
"Contact Kushida," Hachiman said, then looked at Karuizawa. "And Karuizawa, ask in the class group chat to collect everyone's meeting time and room number for tonight."
"Karuizawa with you?" But then Horikita's voice suddenly came through the phone.
"I just had dinner with her, what's wrong?"
"..." Horikita. "It's nothing."
So, people from both sides started working.
Having just won a battle, the students in the class were completely bewildered by the prospect of taking another exam.
I'm even a little worried.
When I opened the class group chat, people were discussing whether they would lose points on this exam.
That's a good thing.
Because their own interests were involved, the classmates weren't so difficult to deal with.
Students in the class are unlikely to make sacrifices for others, but they might become more obedient if their own interests are harmed.
Soon.
The intelligence was gathered 10 minutes later.
The students in Class C were divided into twelve groups. They all went to room 204 on the second floor at different times.
Ichinose also sent back information that their class was similar, with their schedule divided into different time slots, the same as Hachiman's class.
However, they were all assigned to a different room.
This applies to one class and to two classes.
So perhaps the school is planning to divide the first-year students into four rooms and conduct assessments at different times.
Putting down his phone, Hachiman looked at the girl with a single golden ponytail across the table.
Karuizawa seems to have absolutely no interest in class rivalries.
He didn't panic when he was notified that he would have to take Special Exam, and his response was, "You'll take care of the exam, won't you?"
And you said you wouldn't make me drop out of school, right?
It's a genuine state of stagnation.
"What are your thoughts on this exam, Karuizawa?"
Hachiman decided to gather her opinions.
"Hmm~ Me? I think I'm a little strange."
Karuizawa pursed her lips and said softly, "Satsuki and Maya are at the same time as me, they're all later, and they're even in different rooms. If that's the case, then wouldn't those who have earlier exam times know the exam content in advance?"
"Um."
Hachiman Hikigaya nodded slightly; Karuizawa was quite clever.
Indeed, the time periods are different.
Those who know the exam content in advance can prepare accordingly.
So.
Tonight's announcement might not be about the exam itself, but simply a notification about the exam rules. And it's about these rules that we might need to be aware of.
And.
Hachiman glanced at the rules on his phone.
[Please assemble at Room 204 on the second floor before 6 PM tonight. The journey will take approximately twenty minutes. Please use the restroom and ensure your mobile phone is either unused or switched off before arriving at the meeting point.]
Cell phones are not allowed.
So, bringing a camera is fine, right?
