She's already received a monthly allowance of 90,000 yuan because of the exam on the Uninhabited Island, and she's in a good mood, but she certainly wouldn't refuse to be richer.

Especially.

Her dark past... is something she can't bear to look back on, and it led to that incident. So, before things calmed down and she came to this school, she was actually confined to her home by her parents.

So.

She was actually thinking about her future.

She doesn't believe that the class can graduate with Class A, so any talk of getting into the desired university or getting the desired job without taking an exam or for free is just empty talk.

Only points count.

And.

Hachiman Hikigaya asked her to contact upperclassmen, and she obtained some information from a third-year upperclassman.

Upon graduation, the school will collect the points from graduates in cash according to a set ratio.

Therefore...

In this school, accumulating enough points means collecting enough money.

And money, money, money.

This is the goal of most people.

So this is also for her future.

"I'd like to too," Hachiman without hiding anything. "But it's difficult."

"Because if we want to acquire a large number of points, what do we get by going towards result 1?"

"Will I also receive 500,000 points?"

"This is so boring," Hachiman said.

"..."

That's infuriating to hear.

One of the three VIP in Class C this time is Kikyo Kushida.

So as long as her VIP information is not leaked, she is guaranteed to receive at least 500,000 points.

They were treated preferentially.

If the Dragon Group gets result 1, she will receive an additional 500,000 points.

Therefore, this will bring in a huge sum of money.

And Hachiman Hikigaya, you actually look down on 500,000 yen now?

Yes, sometimes I see you having meals with Classmate Sakayanagi from Class A, and it seems like it's always Sakayanagi's side that treats you to meals, but you're not at the point where you can ignore 500,000 yen, are you?

"500,000 yen is beneath me..." But Suzune Horikita frowned slightly. If she could get 500,000 yen all at once, it would actually be a good thing for her.

After the Uninhabited Island Exam ended, Hachiman allocated her a monthly allowance of 90,000 Private Points that she could earn from Class B.

By graduation, they will receive a quota of approximately 3 million.

It looks like a huge sum of money.

Now, with another 500,000 to be earned, it seems like we're one step closer to our goal.

But.

She wanted to collect 20 million.

Hachiman Hikigaya also said that he promised Chabashira-sensei that he would lead the class to be promoted to Class A once.

Just once.

She also doesn't think the class is worthy of being in Class A, so dropping out isn't really impossible.

But.

If I can collect 20 million to go to Class A, wouldn't that also get my brother's approval?

After all, this is something that no one in the school has been able to do before.

Therefore, Horikita actually intended to collect 20 million points.

Now, according to Hachiman Hikigaya, since this is VIP Exam, with preferential treatment, the 500,000 yen offer obviously won't be enough to immediately tempt anyone.

I want... more.

"If we only go through outcome 1, the school will only issue 500,000 points to each person, and 1 million to those VIP."

Kushida frowned slightly.

It's fair to say that all three people in this room want money.

"If we want more, wouldn't we have to take money from other students? But that kind of thing..."

Kushida began to understand Hachiman was thinking.

There are a total of 12 groups. Each group can get at least 6.5 million points from the school, so 12 groups would get around 80 million points.

If we could extract 10 to 20 million points from such a huge amount, wouldn't that be better than 500,000 per person?

But.

This is like pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth.

It's very difficult to do.

Because who would just give you points directly?

It's extremely difficult. Perhaps it's only something you can imagine; putting it into practice is far too challenging.

"So let's take it slow," Hachiman said. "Horikita, you continue to deduce the pattern, and Kushida, you help out too. Although I think the probability of deduce the pattern based on only the information from three VIP is not high, it might work, right? We can give it a try."

"And what about you?" Horikita and Kushida both looked at him at the same time.

"I'm not suited for these kinds of brain-intensive solutions," Hachiman said. "Besides, Horikita, I think this is an opportunity for you."

"Because you don't know yet, the person who brought the spare phone this morning was from the Student Council, the Student Council President."

"Huh?"

This was the first time Suzune Horikita had heard this news.

Does that mean her brother is also on the ship? If she can figure out the pattern, perhaps she can gain her brother's respect.

Suzune Horikita's fighting spirit was boosted.

"??"

Kushida, on the other hand, looked at them with curiosity.

Because.

She felt there was some very important news, but she hadn't yet grasped it.

"I can agree to your request," Hachiman added. "If you can deduce the pattern, I'll manipulate things, and the final points I get can be divided among you, five million each."

"However," Hachiman added, "If we fail, then each of you will receive 1.5 million yen as appropriate. And the deadline is this evening."

Oh.

Is it possible to have 1.5 million even without figuring out the pattern?

Isn't that like getting free money?

We have to do it, even if it means we have to rack our brains!

Then.

Sakura continued to stand guard, while Horikita and Kushida continued to work hard in the room.

"H- Hachiman— " Sakura was a little flustered when Hachiman walked out of the room.

"Those two students have been watching this place."

Have you been keeping an eye on this place the whole time?

Following Airi's suggestion, Hachiman looked over and saw two students from Class D.

One is Daichi Ishizaki, and the other is Albert.

They were all people close to Ryuen.

Upon seeing him come out, Ishizaki took out his phone, seemingly sending a message to someone.

It seems so.

Ryuen probably had people keeping watch because they were worried that he would deduce the pattern first.

Seeing him move around, Daichi Ishizaki looked as if he were facing a formidable enemy.

Actually, Hachiman felt they didn't need to be so nervous.

Because he deliberately confiscated the cell phone from Kōenji as a backup plan, there was no need for him to participate in the process of deducing the pattern of VIP.

So he went straight to the theater.

The theater stages a play every two hours, and the one currently being performed is the famous [Turandot]. It tells the love story of a stubborn princess.

Of course, the most striking feature is the actor's unique high-pitched singing style.

Most of the students on the ship were engrossed in their exams, so not many people came to the theater to relax.

It seems that the people at the theater were also immediately scared away when they saw the bespectacled, serious-looking boy.

Because.

Student Council President Manabu Horikita was also here.

"The Student Council President took time out of his busy schedule to come and watch a show. How leisurely."

Hachiman walked up to Manabu Horikita's side.

"I didn't come here to watch a play," Manabu Horikita said.

As he said this, he put a cell phone into his pocket with his left hand.

Hachiman confirmed that the phone was different from everyone else's and probably belonged to a crew member on the ship.

He must have just been contacting his family.

Once outside the school, you can use a staff member's phone to contact the outside world.

Is that so?

It seems the Student Council President isn't so rigid after all; unlike Horikita's little sister, he knows how to be flexible.

"Your class's request to borrow a spare phone this time was a bit unexpected," Manabu Horikita said. "But it didn't exceed the rules."

"After all, the students in my class lack self-discipline," Hachiman said. "If they didn't act recklessly, we wouldn't need to be so vigilant."

"Then we also paid the price of 400,000 points," Hachiman said.

This is the price of borrowing a backup machine for 3 days.

It's not a myth that you can buy anything with points.

"And now, your sister is also working hard."

"Suzune ..." Manabu Horikita shook his head. "Although she has changed, it's a pity that this time my sister was just used as a gun by you."

"My foolish little sister still hasn't grown much." Manabu Horikita shook his head, seemingly with some regret.

At first, he arranged for his sister to learn from Hachiman Hikigaya, but her growth was still insufficient.

We still need to keep working hard.

"However," Manabu Horikita stood up, then adjusted his glasses, "You need to understand, you're inviting trouble."

Are we inviting a wolf into our house?

Hachiman didn't take Manabu Horikita's evaluation seriously.

Because.

If the goal can be achieved, many methods can be used.

For example, an enemy may not be an enemy, but a partner with whom you can cooperate temporarily.
