Class A's Teacher: This Is Ridiculous! You Can Even Find Bugs in My Rules! Part 2! (Continued)
Sakagami-sensei looked at Majima, who was walking over.
"Majima, you're really late today. Are you having trouble explaining the rules to Class C? Indeed, their students must be difficult to handle. For example, they can't even understand the rules," Sakagami said.
"That's possible," Majima said. "But my work is done."
"You're still so serious, aren't you worried at all?" Sakagami-sensei said. "You know, there are a total of 12 VIP in this exam."
"So your Class A might get surpassed."
Class D' s class evaluation score is 0.
So you'll have to take at least several exams to catch up.
However, Class A is only about 100 points ahead of Class B and about 200 points ahead of Class C, which puts them in a precarious position.
"If you get surpassed by Class C, then your class might become famous," Sakagami said. "Even worse than my class."
This school is a competition between classes, so fluctuations between classes are reasonable.
But if Class A drops out so quickly, they'll lose face.
After all, in the beginning, all the good students were put into Class A.
So actually, if Class A really drops out, it would be somewhat comforting for Sakagami-sensei.
He initially taught Class C, but Class C not only dropped in grade, they even got a zero.
According to the school's usual progress, Class CD might be switched, but if they get a score of 0, it usually happens in the second or third year. So getting a score of 0 now is very embarrassing.
I felt ashamed to go to other grades.
"Regarding that. If other classes can surpass us, then so be it. We, Class A, can afford to lose." As he said this, Majima pressed his hand to his hair.
Today, his job was to inform the students in Class C about the exam rules. Class C students were ranked last in a set of evaluation criteria, meaning they were mostly the less intelligent ones, so this job wasn't easy.
However, after Hachiman Hikigaya of Class C used the camera, it was passed down.
Each group will have its group list photographed upon entry.
Therefore, from this perspective, Class C has once again gained the upper hand this time.
So the exam results could be incredibly absurd.
Therefore, his position in Class A is indeed unstable.
Only.
Even so, Majima had no intention of acting out of personal motives or violating regulations. Instead, he looked at Chie Hoshinomiya, who seemed a bit dazed, in Class B. "Hoshinomiya, what are you planning to do this time?"
"You adjusted the students in your class, right?"
"Huh? Majima, what are you talking about?"
"Don't try to bluff," said Majima-sensei. "You changed the group assignment list this time. Normally, we would assign representatives from each class to the Dragon Group, but you assigned Ichinose from your class to the Rabbit Group, right?"
"Ah... I just think Ichinose really cute, like a little bunny, so I put her in the Rabbit Group," Hoshinomiya said.
"Is that really true?" Majima-sensei looked at her with distrust.
"Haha, it really is like that." But Hoshinomiya continued to respond with a dismissive attitude.
Chabashira drank quietly by himself, but his brows were slightly furrowed.
Because.
When assigning student lists, it is customary to place representatives from each class in the Dragon Group.
After all, competition helps people grow.
Therefore, the strong are placed in the strong group.
But.
When making her selection, she didn't put Hachiman Hikigaya in the Dragon Group, but in the Rabbit Group.
Result.
Chie actually placed Ichinose in the Rabbit Group as well.
In other words, is Chie on guard against her? Is Class B about to launch an attack?
On the other side.
Here in Hachiman.
"Hello."
Hachiman dialed the number on his cell phone. "Horikita, where are you now? I'm coming to find you."
The information about the VIP will be sent to each student's mobile phone at 8 o'clock tomorrow, and judging from the nature of my class, 99% of the students will act for their own benefit.
And once these people know about their VIP status, even if they want to hide it, they will be easily discovered because they are stupid.
Therefore, some things need to be decided now.
It was already 10:30 PM.
Because there were people in the dormitory, Suzune Horikita was currently in a restaurant.
And she was quite clever. When Hachiman arrived, she was in a small private room, while a pink-haired girl wearing non-prescription glasses stood at the door of the room.
This is Airi Sakura.
She was standing at the door of the private room, looking around nervously.
It seems they are making preparations for alert.
"Using Sakura as a sentry? That's really going too far," Hachiman said to Suzune Horikita. Then he returned the camera to Sakura. "Sakura, you were a great help in this exam too."
"No, no, if I can help, that would be great."
Sakura knew she had a low profile, was bad at studying, and was completely incapable of sports.
So I'm quite happy that it can be of use to me.
"Would you like me to get you a chair?" Hachiman asked.
"No, no need, just stand here." Sakura quickly waved her hand.
But Hachiman came into the private room and brought her a chair, so Sakura had no choice but to sit down.
"What's wrong?"
Hachiman entered the private room and found that the people inside were staring intently at him.
"No, I just think you're quite considerate," Suzune Horikita said.
Um.
Kushida felt the same way.
Hachiman Hikigaya is sometimes so observant and considerate that it's almost unbelievable.
Sakura at the door was actually to keep watch.
Previously, Ryuen had sent Ibuki as a spy to the Uninhabited Island Ryuen, so they were worried that their discussions might be overheard by Ryuen's class.
This is a lesson learned the hard way.
"So, have you figured it out?" Hachiman asked.
He had already sent the photos from Sakura's camera to his phone and then sent them to Suzune Horikita.
It contains a list of 12 groups, as well as the exam rules.
The students in the class were divided into 12 groups, but the rules were explained the same way today, only the group lists were different.
"I already understand the exam rules."
"There are 12 groups, and within each group, there will be four possible outcomes."
"Result 1. Everyone gets 500,000, while the VIP receive 1 million."
Result 2: Only the VIP received 500,000.
These are the results you can get by honestly answering the questions according to the rules and within the specified time.
"The other situation is when someone answers first."
Result 3: If the identity of the VIP is correctly guessed, the class evaluation score increases by 50, and the individual gains 500,000. (VIP's class - 50 class evaluation score)
Result 4: If the identity of the VIP is guessed incorrectly, the class's evaluation score will be reduced by 50, the VIP's class score will be increased by 50, VIP will receive a reward of 500,000.
"If you answer honestly, only your Private Points will fluctuate, but if you answer first, the class evaluation score will increase or decrease."
Suzune Horikita: This is a brief explanation of the exam rules.
But after she said that, she noticed that Hachiman was still looking at her. Did he think that wasn't enough?
That's definitely not enough.
So she frowned slightly and continued, "Although the rules are very formal, requiring students to meet every morning and evening and then determine who is the VIP through conversation, find out who is the VIP, and hide that you are the VIP, you still have to read the exam questions carefully."
"The test question is 'Thingking'."
"It's about thinking," Suzune Horikita said.
Then, as she was saying this, she noticed that Hachiman was still looking at her.
"..." Suzune Horikita.
So, do you want to see if there's anything else she hasn't said?
Suzune Horikita then added, "I think the key to this exam is this VIP status."
Um.
Hachiman crossed his arms, deciding to continue listening to her analysis and see if she had grasped the key point.
Horikita's furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and she said, "There are twelve groups in total. Twelve groups mean twelve VIP. And each group has members from each class. So, I'm wondering, is the distribution of VIP equal?"
"If the allocation of VIP is equal, meaning each class can send three VIP, is there any pattern in the selection of these VIP, or is it simply a random selection?"
Horikita shook his head, feeling a bit of a headache.
If there's a pattern, that would be ideal.
Although this pattern is certainly difficult to find, once it is found, the VIP status of other classes can be deduced based on the preferential treatment status of VIP in this class.
"Anything else?" Hachiman asked.
"..." Suzune Horikita. "It's probably around here."
"And Kushida you, Kushida?" Hachiman asked. "What's your opinion?"
"..." Kushida.
What does it have to do with her?
Why does she still need to use her brain?
It's probably because her seat is next to Suzune Horikita, and Horikita isn't looking at her right now, so Kushida is probably giving Hachiman this kind of expression.
Hmm.
Karuizawa is like that, and so is Kushida.
Hachiman has already seen two people who don't want to use their brains and just follow orders.
But now...
"First of all, Horikita, your idea is on the right track." Seeing that Kushida was giving up, Hachiman turned to Horikita and said, "My thoughts are the same as yours."
"Dividing them into small groups and having them formally meet up every day to observe and speculate is a test for each student. But this is just the school's requirement, not 'thingking.' So, I speculate that the real test is to encourage students to think outside the box and consider things from the perspective of the test setter. If I were the test setter, I would indeed break the students up, but I would also give opportunities to those who can think. For example, the selection of the VIP in the 12 groups is based on certain criteria."
"In other words, I believe there is a pattern in the selection of those VIP."
"At the same time, there will definitely be 3 in each class."
"Therefore, we need to obtain the grouping list for the 12 groups."
"And that's why I asked you to take pictures."
"..."
