The Exam Begins! Eight-That's Eight Subjects! (Continued)

In other words, as long as this test paper is submitted, Class C will definitely get good grades.

So this is essentially giving Class C 200 points for nothing.

In return, Sakayanagi would give her the answers to the math test she had given to Class A.

Kushida is Academic Ability, but not as good as Suzune Horikita.

Therefore, it's impossible to beat Suzune Horikita in mathematics; the only option is to resort to tricks.

Sakayanagi also gave her this opportunistic opportunity.

However.

The answers to the test paper that Sakayanagi gave her were all fake!

Almost all of them are wrong!

Except for the first multiple-choice question, which was correct, all the others were false. She had seen the draft test paper that Sakayanagi had given her, and the math problems on that paper were completely different from the ones handed out today.

Once Sakayanagi submitted his exam paper, it shouldn't have been changed.

So the draft exam paper she was shown to her at the beginning was fake.

She was betrayed. Betrayed by Sakayanagi Arisu the inside out!

Kushida stormed onto the rooftop and saw the little angel with straight silver hair sitting on a bench, resting with her eyes closed. Her dog, Kamuro, was standing to one side.

Sakayanagi appeared very elegant.

"Isn't this Kushida- kun?"

Sakayanagi seemed completely oblivious to Kushida's anger. "Are you angry? You shouldn't be angry because you've already failed. This is the test paper we took this morning."

As he said this, Sakayanagi handed a piece of paper to Kushida.

Kushida turned strange after just one glance. This was because these were not the papers Sakayanagi had initially asked her to submit.

"..."

So?

"Your plan was seen through by Horikita and Hachiman Hikigaya," Sakayanagi explained. "You followed my instructions to ambush your homeroom teacher Sae Chabashira, on the morning of the 21st, and then handed in your paper earlier than anyone else."

Then they set a requirement that you be present before the exam papers could be released, and then you took sick leave. However, the result was that your submitted exam paper was not processed.

"Why?" Kushida couldn't understand. He seemed completely unaware of the matter.

"Because Suzune Horikita is more profound than you think."

Classmate Sakayanagi calmly explained, "The reason is that Hachiman Hikigaya Sae Chabashira earlier, indicating that Suzune Horikita would be setting the questions for the class. He also obtained authorization letters from ten classmates. With these preparations, Chabashira believed him."

"Give me that list," Kushida said.

"Are you looking for revenge? Or do you not trust me?" Sakayanagi said. "And Kushida, since you're useless, I don't need to give you the right answer."

"..." Kushida.

"..." These words seemed to silence Kushida.

"Aren't you worried that I'll be expelled? Someone like Suzune Horikita, even though the questions you set this time were very difficult, she can still get over 90 points, while I can only get 80 or 85 at most," Kushida said.

"I don't need useless people," Sakayanagi said. "So, although it's a shame, Kushida, the little bit of fun you've given me is about to end."

In other words, it was an implicit acceptance that Kikyo Kushida had dropped out of school.

Kushida and Horikita made a bet, and Kushida's actual grades would definitely be worse than Horikita's, so Kushida decided to drop out of school.

"..." Kushida. "So you really do want me to drop out of school!"

"Your excuses, like 'I submitted the exam paper and was found out by Hachiman Hikigaya and Horikita,' are just that."

"And you, Sakayanagi Arisu!"

Kikyo Kushida paused for a moment. "Actually, you never intended to give me the real exam answers from the beginning."

"Oh?"

These words made Classmate Sakayanagi glance over gently.

"It seems you're not completely stupid after all," Sakayanagi Arisu complimented him.

Why did you do that?!

This is also why Kushida came looking for him in a huff.

"Don't you understand?" Sakayanagi said. "The key to your class's promotion to Class A."

"And in this exam, there was someone who should have taken the lead but didn't," Sakayanagi Arisu.

"You mean..."

"I want to fight Hachiman," Sakayanagi Arisu said. "But he started avoiding fights after he Class Advancement. And he's the kind of responsible weirdo who attacks the people around him, so he might retaliate."

Kushida was chosen by Sakayanagi Arisu because he was someone Hachiman Hikigaya Kushida.

Anyone who gets close to Hachiman Hikigaya will be attacked.

This is truly a huge disaster.

"If you get expelled, then Hachiman will definitely come after me," Sakayanagi added.

"You're absolutely insane!" Kushida exclaimed.

"I'm just adding a little color to school life," Sakayanagi Arisu said elegantly.

Then it seemed as if he was preparing to grab his cane and get up.

Because for her, it's time to go to the cafeteria on the third floor for lunch now.

Since Kushida's role has been fulfilled, there is naturally no need for him to stay any longer.

After Sakayanagi Arisu Kushida also left. However, when she was walking down the rooftop, she met Hachiman, who had come to pick her up, on the stairs on the third floor.

"Is it already confirmed that Sakayanagi won't give you an answer?" Hachiman replied to her.

"Confirmed." Kushida nodded.

"Then let's buy some things and go to Suzune Horikita's dorm after the exam tomorrow night to celebrate," Hachiman said.

"Good."

Kushida did not refuse.

Because Sakayanagi didn't give her the answers to the math test, but Hachiman Hikigaya did.

So, Suzune Horikita could have scored 98 points on this test, but she got 100.

She didn't lose this bet.

The next evening.

All exams are over.

Cheers!

In Suzune Horikita's room, everyone sat together.

"Um... is it a little inappropriate for me to be here too?" Sitting on the right, Honami Ichinose seemed a little embarrassed.

Because everyone present was from Hachiman Hikigaya's class, and she was the only one from another class.

"It's nothing," Hachiman said. "In fact, Ichinose helped us out this time."

"Uh—" Ichinose.

Help? She felt that she had only assisted in creating 50 questions.

But.

"Also, congratulations," Hachiman said. "After the exams, Ichinose and you will also be in Class A."

Forehead.

It's also Class A.

In this exam, Class Ichinose actually used a less-than-honorable method.

Shiina from Class D resigned from her position as representative in Ryuen, and everyone in Class D was terrified and feared expulsion.

Therefore, we hope to make a deal with their Class B.

The deal involved both sides leaking the exam papers to each other, while Class D guaranteed to lose to Class B in total score.

In other words, they handed over 200 bonus points to Class B.

However, there is a price to pay: a monthly living allowance of 600,000 yen, which will continue until graduation.

This agreement is very similar to the agreement between Class D and Class A during the Uninhabited Island Exam, and it has the suspicion of selling points.

However, Ichinose and the others eventually accepted the proposal.

So, if the Hachiman Hikigaya class loses to the Sakayanagi Class, then their Class B's score will actually... reach the highest.

So we'll have to become Class A.

It was supposed to be Class A, which everyone was looking forward to, but we got it so easily. My feelings are a little complicated.

But she was also curious.

Because.

This time, Class A did not receive the leaked exam questions from Class C, and at least most of the students did not memorize the exam papers.

Therefore, Class A will fail in this written exam.

I've already heard Hachiman mention this.

But.

"Hachiman, are you really not going to mind if we move up to Class A?" Ichinose seemed a little hesitant, but still asked the question.

This is Suzune Horikita's room, and next to her are Horikita, Kushida, and Hachiman.

They were all in the same class, and both were in Class A.

If Ichinose's class moves up, it means that Hachiman Hikigaya's class falls down.

"Horikita and I want to lead the class to Class A just to prove our strength," Hachiman said. "As you already know, Horikita is the Horikita's sister, and it's embarrassing for her to be assigned to Class D. So, for the sake of the Horikita's face, it's necessary to make a move."

"And you can understand me for a similar reason."

"So, neither she nor I have any reason to maintain Class A right now," Hachiman said.

I see.

Hachiman simply lacks confidence in his class.

Therefore, you can only be Class Advancement once.

Actually, you can tell a little bit.

The students in the Hachiman Hikigaya class lacked Academic Ability, and when there were too many written exams like this, they would lose points rapidly.

Then, his athletic ability is also terrible. If there are many sports-related tests, he will lose points quickly.

The offensive and defensive battle was too agonizing.

"And Class A's position is poison," Hachiman said. "Take the original Class A for example, they were extremely anxious when they fell down."

"I'm being followed by three students from Class A."

"..." This point is unsolvable.

The Hachiman Hikigaya was being followed also began this month, and Hachiman questioned Sakayanagi, it turned out that it wasn't Sakayanagi who assigned the task.

Therefore, it could only be a spontaneous action by the original students of Class A.

"So, Ichinose have been promoted, so you should be mentally prepared," Hachiman said.

"Meow—" This was a bit stressful for Ichinose, who was kind to everyone.

They were also worried that their classmates would be targeted and troubled.

Just as Ichinose was about to say something, her phone vibrated.

"Sorry, sorry—someone asked me out." Ichinose looked at her phone and quickly stood up to say, "I'm sorry, a classmate is looking for me, so I have to go back now."
