It must be said that it was really Sudō for Sudo to even consider this step.

Unfortunately, he fell for the trap.

"Those people did it on purpose."

Sakura's timid yet surprised voice rang in Hachiman's ears. Perhaps because she had seen people fighting, the girl's face appeared somewhat pale.

Sakura didn't hear Ishizaki and the others' discussion, but she did see the Matoba.

"Um."

Hachiman nodded slightly.

Even Sakura could see that Sudō was completely caught up in the situation and couldn't see the bigger picture.

Although he is currently fighting three against one, a careful observation would reveal that all three men who are going to fight Sudō are holding back.

At the same time.

Although it appears that Daichi Ishizaki made the first move, it is clear from an observer's perspective that although he arranged for two delinquents to hold Sudō, the two delinquents did not use their full strength when Sudō struggled.

In other words, they deliberately let Sudō break free and then beat them up!

This wasn't a real fight.

And now.

They were provoking Sudō, that is, deliberately provoking him to be hit.

"Ouch~ that hurts!"

"Damn it, Sudō, stop right now!"

"Ah, you're finished, Sudō, you're finished!"

?

"I used that much force?" Sudō looked completely bewildered. "And Komiyama, I haven't even touched you yet! Are you trying to scam me?!"

Komiyama, who also has red hair, lay down on the ground.

"W-What should we do..." Sakura had never seen a battle like this before.

"Sudō has fallen for their trap," Hachiman said. "This isn't an ordinary fight; the students in Class C are trying to cause trouble."

"And what we can do is..."

The students in Class C are using violent methods, and if this is stopped here, everyone could be threatened.

So.

Perhaps we should seize this opportunity to fight back.

"And Sakura," Hachiman looked at Sakura, "Could you remain silent about this for now?"

"Huh? Hmm... um."

Sakura nodded.

Given her introverted personality, if she were alone and witnessed such a fight, she probably wouldn't even dare to show her face.

In this way.

The next day.

When Hachiman arrived at the classroom, he wanted to check on Sudō, but he found that the students in the class seemed very uneasy.

Because.

"It's all Sudō's fault! We're going to lose a lot of points now!"

"Even though everyone tried their best to control themselves and maintain the class's evaluation score, that guy Sudō..."

"I don't even know how many points I'll lose!"

I could hear the noisy noise coming from Class D from afar.

"I already told you, there are three people on their side!"

"But..."

Meanwhile, Sudō was trying to explain something to Kushida Hirata, while Ike and Yamauchi were slumped over the table, muttering, "It's all Sudō's fault..."

It seems something has happened.

When Hachiman arrived, he found Sakura, whom he usually teased, looking at him somewhat nervously.

Hachiman gave the other person a reassuring look.

"Hachiman." Kushida, like an angel, ran from Sudō's side to Hachiman's.

This also caught the attention of Hachiman's neighbor Suzune Horikita, "Something big might be about to happen."

Seeing that Horikita was also looking over, she, who was good at gathering information, immediately explained, "The players of Class C's Basketball Club have filed a complaint with the school against Sudō. They say that after the club activity ended, Sudō unilaterally beat them up."

"Then I hope the school will make the right decision. If necessary, I hope Sudō will be expelled!"

"..."

Horikita didn't say anything, or perhaps she thought there was just too much to deal with.

After all, she had never experienced fighting.

However, she looked at Hachiman.

Because if this kind of thing isn't handled properly, the class's evaluation score will be affected.

A short while later, Chabashira-sensei also came in for the daily morning meeting, but today it was undoubtedly about the Sudō assault incident.

"I acted in self-defense! I acted in self-defense!"

Sudō sat in his seat, slamming his fist on the table as he tried to defend himself.

"I've already said that's not how it is; there are three of them!"

With an angry expression, Sudō tried his best to explain to the students around him, "They attacked first! I was defending myself! In self-defense!"

"But, they've already filed a lawsuit."

Clearly, the others didn't quite believe Sudō's explanation.

Given Sudō's usual bad behavior and his tendency to provoke others, it's hard to imagine that he's the type to wait for someone to make a move before retaliating.

They preferred to believe the seemingly absurd report rather than this.

It was Ken Sudō who single-handedly defeated all three opponents.

"Chabashira-sensei," Hachiman asked. "Class C has launched an accusation against Sudō?"

"Hmm." Chabashira nodded, then looked at him. "The Student Council President has accepted the case, and the trial will be held next week. Sudō, myself, and two other defense lawyers will need to go with us."

This is the news she just received.

This news is also very serious.

Because if a fight is confirmed, a large number of points will be deducted.

They will receive special attention in behavioral norms assessments.

If the situation is particularly egregious, the points deductions will be even more outrageous.

So.

Class D now only has 480 points left, plus the one or two points deducted every day these days.

In other words, Hachiman Hikigaya's plan to accumulate class evaluation scores this month... going to fail?

But only Hachiman knew that things were alright.

Class C will be demoted to Class D in this Behavioral Guidelines Exam.

Chapter 68 Hachiman: Sakayanagi, do you believe in luck? Ryuen Kakeru, suspended from school for a week!

During the exam month for behavioral norms assessment, greater emphasis will be placed on students' performance and conduct.

As per Chabashira-sensei's instructions.

A week later, the Student Council will hold a hearing on Class C's demands. If they lose the hearing, the class's evaluation points will be deducted, and Sudō's punishment will be imposed directly.

It's possible that he or she will be suspended from school.

However, the class evaluation score was still deducted.

Moreover, the fight involved one person against three, making the incident quite egregious, so the probability of being punished is very high.

"So, is there any other way?"

After the first class ended, some students came to Hachiman's table.

This is Yosuke Mama in the class. And the counterpart to Yosuke Mama is Kushida, who is cute and has a sweet smile, and is like a little angel, so you can also call her Kushida- chan.

Both of them arrived here.

Um...

Actually, it wasn't just them; even Suzune Horikita looked over directly, despite being seated next to them.

After all, if it is confirmed that Sudō hit someone, then Sudō himself will be punished, and then the class will also be affected, especially since everyone has now signed an agreement to get 400 points, etc.

Certainly.

Yosuke Mama was probably worried about Sudō, while the others were worried about the class evaluation scores.

After all, everyone has tried so hard to restrain themselves, and if Sudō deducts points from their scores, most of them would probably have a mental breakdown.

Only.

Hachiman glanced in Sudō's direction.

After class, Sudo, who was at the center of the incident, seemed to feel constantly questioned by her classmates and ran away.

Hachiman then looked away.

"Regarding this matter, I feel there's no other option but to go to trial," Hachiman said. "So, we need to find as much information as possible that is favorable to Sudō."

"For example, I think Sudō is innocent."

"So, I think there might be something wrong with the fact that Sudō from Class C beat up all three of them," Hachiman said.

"But Sudō is usually very short-tempered," a student chimed in. "I was startled by him before."

"So I think the assault story might actually be true," the student said.

Hachiman glanced at this classmate.

This is Haruki Yamauchi.

It left one speechless for a moment.

Although Sudō seemed irritable after enrolling, and even said, "Is this some kind of childish self-introduction?", he quickly integrated into the group.

However, this was a small group of people Yamauchi, who weren't exactly popular and were even somewhat disliked by the girls.

And Yamauchi is also part of the small team, so why isn't he speaking up for Sudō now?

"Let's trust our classmates," Hachiman said. "I believe Sudō didn't hit someone for no reason, but rather it was self-defense, as he claims."

"Hachiman! I believe in Sudō too!" These words put Yosuke Mama in a good mood.

He was probably the one who valued his classmates the most.

That's why I came to Hachiman after class.

On the one hand, if a decision is made in court, Sudō will cause the class to lose points.

This is something no one wants to see.

Hachiman also has the goal of being promoted to Class A, so his class evaluation score is naturally very valuable.

So Hachiman Hirata share the same idea.

Try your best to exonerate Sudō, provide assistance, and reduce or even eliminate the point deduction.

But.
