Hachiman's Meritocracy Classroom Chapter 39

So, I need to deal with Suzune Horikita.

And she's been pestering him, trying to befriend him, all for this very reason.

If they were on good terms, then he wouldn't say anything out of line, right?

At least, on the surface, she could achieve that for now.

But this Horikita girl is completely unyielding, which Kushida finds troublesome.

As a result, has she now voluntarily lowered her guard?

Kushida maintained her cute demeanor.

Then she heard the other person's voice.

"Yes." Horikita nodded. Then she said, "I want you to spread a rumor in the class."

"A rumor about the true nature of this school."

Ten chapters completed, going to sleep, sleepy as a cat.

Seeking monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, and blades.

Sniffle sniffle.

Failed to climb the rankings, but 7 chapters today.

Woke up, had to write, it's truly despairing. Woke up and saw the failed ranking climb, stopped in the 20s. Even with the burst of chapters, I couldn't even beat a few treasure chest monsters. It seems I have no talent for writing books.

49 is truly a god. I've never seen him fall from the top. And he updated, if you like him, you can go read.

But after thinking about it, writing 20,000 words yesterday, I'm still not willing to just give up and slack off.

I'll try again today.

Today, 7 chapters, 14,000 words.

0 chapters in stock, writing as I go.

I don't want to admit defeat.

PS: Also, let's have a bounty.

100 monthly tickets means an extra 2000 words upon release.

50 blades means an extra 2000 words.

500 recommendation tickets means an extra 2000 words.

As for tips, forget it. Don't waste your money.

The original plan was to release 40-60k words in a burst when the book went on sale.

But now I don't know if you'll give me the chance.

Current data is as follows:

Monthly tickets: 202, Recommendation tickets: 2721, Blades: 119

Time limit is Friday 0:00.

Chapter 046: Destroying the Surveillance, First-Year Class D Loses 50 Points! (Part 1)

1. This is a school built with government funding, so it's allocated from the treasury, ensuring that money is spent effectively.

2. I learned from an upperclassman in a club that this school has many exams, and the content of these exams varies widely. The penalties for failing are severe, including, but not limited to, expulsion.

3. Many upperclassmen have been expelled. It seems that the entire second and third years, totaling 8 classes, but not even 40 students can be gathered in each class.

The above are the favors Suzune Horikita wants Kushida to help with.

For her to release rumors.

And these 3 points are the content of the rumors.

However.

"..." Kushida.

Kushida carefully observed the content of these 3 rumors.

Then she quickly looked in one direction.

There sat the dead-fish-eyed boy who hadn't left yet because he was slow at packing his bag.

That was Hachiman Hikigaya.

Right now, only the three of them were in the classroom.

Kushida initially thought that since Horikita had finally opened up and allowed her to get closer, she should seize the opportunity and cut off any chance of the other party mentioning her past scandals.

In that case, Hachiman Hikigaya was a nuisance here.

But now, she suddenly looked towards Hachiman.

Because.

Horikita wanted her to spread rumors, which was a rather troublesome action.

However, the content of the rumor wasn't excessive.

But she felt that the content was familiar.

Because on the day of enrollment, she had met Hachiman Hikigaya at the dormitory, and he had said similar things to her. Afterward, they had gone together to investigate the other grades.

They visited the first floors of the school buildings for all three grades.

And she still remembered meeting the Student Council President Manabu Horikita and the secretary Akane Tachibana at that time.

It's just that.

It's just that Hachiman Hikigaya back then hadn't mentioned anything else related to this school, but these three pieces of information gave her the feeling that they were information Hachiman Hikigaya had discovered.

It's just that.

Why would Hachiman Hikigaya, the information you know, be conveyed through Suzune Horikita?

Don't you have a bad relationship with Suzune Horikita?

When did you become like this behind her back?

And did Suzune Horikita say anything [bad about you, Kikyo Kushida] to you?

"Um..." Kushida seemed to gather her emotions for a moment. Her already pleasant voice seemed to become even more melodious. "Hachiman Hikigaya~"

"..." Hachiman.

Hachiman considered Kushida an old acquaintance. When she acted so coy and affected, he immediately understood.

Kushida currently felt suspicious of his presence.

"Horikita seems to have caught onto some other information," Hachiman said. "She caught me, and I had no choice but to help."

Oh.

So that's how it is.

Hachiman Hikigaya was being coerced by Horikita.

This answer was barely acceptable.

After all, Suzune Horikita was the type of person who was unyielding and completely lacked normal social skills. For example, she had waited at his door in the morning, wanting to go to school with him, but he had completely ignored her.

And this was the third time.

As for Hachiman, although he was also difficult to deal with, he was someone who couldn't handle others.

So, the current situation was understandable.

Kushida maintained her smile.

After all, what was important now was to gain Horikita's favor and become friends with her first.

Although her actions of spreading rumors were somewhat questionable.

However, the content of the rumors Horikita had prepared wasn't problematic. If she had been asked to badmouth someone, she would have considered whether it was worth it, as it would damage her image.

But with this content, it was fine.

Furthermore, she also realized that the content of the rumor was essentially good.

It was probably intended to make students treat this school more cautiously.

As someone who had investigated the school with Hachiman on the first day, she also found the school administration very strange. Why were they giving them such good treatment?

And did they really... deserve it?

After all.

Although she thought her previous classmates from junior high were outrageous, the students in this class were even more terrifying.

There were some people she didn't even want to include in the category of [friends].

So, it was very strange that the school administration uniformly gave everyone this kind of treatment.

However, Kushida probably really wanted to gain Horikita's favor, as she started to act right in front of the two of them.

Her actions were quite skillful.

First, she made a phone call to a girl, talking about how she had been hit on by an upperclassman, and was told that it was best to treat things seriously at school. But when she asked further, the upperclassman refused to say more.

This made her wonder if the upperclassmen were hiding something.

Then he sent a message to another classmate.

Setting the pace.

And before long.

Changes appeared in Class D's group chat, with students already discussing the matter.

"How can the eight upperclassmen classes not even muster 40 people?"

"The school's finances are in trouble, they're aggressively expelling students to cut costs."

Mm.

Once this rumor spread, it became distorted in a rather frightening way.

But it was quite effective.

The more absurd it was, the more attention it could draw.

So, is there a way to verify this?

Yes.

Take Ken Sudou, for example, who was late this morning.

He joined the basketball club and became a starting player. He was late this morning because he was excited about practice.
