Using Underhanded Tactics? Ryuuen, You've Fallen from Class C! Part 2!! 5k (Continued)

As Secretary Akane Tachibana operated the system, the content recorded on the SD card was projected.

It was a few students from Class 1-C staying in the special experimental teaching building.

"Don't worry, he'll come."

A thug with brown hair threw his cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out, saying with disdain, "How could that kind of idiot who gets angry over a single word possibly tolerate it after seeing the letter we wrote?"

"That's true."

The red-haired delinquent who had spoken first also laughed, "If this guy weren't so stupid, why would we have gone after him?"

"Hey, shut up!"

Meanwhile, Daichi Ishizaki from Class C scolded, "Sudō will be here soon, so be careful not to let him hear us. Otherwise, if Ryuen's plan is ruined, none of us will be happy."

"I see."

Upon hearing the name Ryuen, Brown Hair trembled slightly and nodded.

"Damn it! Where are you? Show yourself!"

Just as Red Hair was about to speak, a furious voice came from the stairwell below.

Then, in a complete turn of events, Sudō was restrained and then beaten by Daichi Ishizaki, after which Sudō began to fight back.

And Komiyama

"We're doomed."

Witnessing this scene, Daichi Ishizaki and the others were filled with fear.

Because from the very beginning, even from the very start, it was said that this was Ryuen's plan, and then they attacked Sudō first, and... the injuries on both sides when they left were all photographed.

In other words...

They didn't have these injuries when they separated, so the injuries they later Student Council were exposed as being deliberately inflicted.

"Damn it! So I got framed!"

Sudō, on the other hand, immediately got furious.

He had been trying to restrain himself and avoid losing points, so he was acting in self-defense.

However, he was definitely acting in self-defense; he believed he was acting in self-defense.

Now it's not even self-defense anymore; it's that they were framed in the first place!

Because Ishizaki and the others in the video said that this was Ryuen's plan. So, it's that despicable Ryuen!

"Quiet down, everyone," Manabu Horikita said. "The evidence is conclusive."

"The case of First Year Class C accusing Sudō of assault has been determined to be a false accusation."

"As is customary, 100 points will be deducted from the class evaluation score," Manabu Horikita said. "However, this involves the Student Council and shows disrespect to Student Council, so I will deduct an additional 100 points."

"At the same time, because it's part of the Behavioral Guidelines Exam, the severity of this incident will be amplified, and the same points will be deducted from the Student Council's punishment score."

So, wouldn't it mean deducting 100, adding 100, and then doubling it again to get 400 points?

"How could this happen..."

Daichi Ishizaki and the others immediately looked at the Itagami-sensei.

However, the teacher on the board had turned pale.

Because the Student Council President didn't finish speaking, "Then, after the results are announced, the class evaluation scores will be announced the next day, and then your First Year Class C will become Class D."

"This is the first time I've encountered such a situation during my term."

That's right.

He dropped out in the first month of school.

This is also the first time this has happened at the school.

But.

"Something's definitely wrong!" the Kazuma Sakagami exclaimed. "I think there's definitely something wrong!"

"So where did things go wrong? Mr. Onaka, as the homeroom teacher, your actions have crossed the line," Manabu Horikita said expressionlessly.

"This..." The Kazuma Sakagami suddenly fell silent.

Because this school is different from the outside world, the Student Council has a lot of power, sometimes even more than the faculty.

Therefore, in some situations, even these homeroom teachers are not as good as the Student Council President.

"So, if they already had this evidence, why didn't they reveal it sooner, instead of waiting until now?" Kazuma Sakagami said under pressure. "That's why I suspect this is also a conspiracy by Class D!"

"They deliberately made us make a scene so they could turn the tables on us!"

This is a reasonable explanation.

At the same time, everyone immediately looked at Hachiman Hikigaya... well, the one who just mentioned Suzune Horikita as an eyewitness.

This fox-eyed girl.

Since she was an eyewitness, why didn't she provide any evidence until now, and then bring it up in such an important Matoba, just to make the punishment for Class C even more severe?

How terrifying is this thought?

But.

"..." Suzune Horikita.

Suzune Horikita, who is always alone, has become accustomed to solitude and doesn't care about other people's opinions. So even now that everyone is looking at her, she can still remain quiet.

However, that's not how I feel inside.

Because.

She had no idea why Hachiman, who was clearly an eyewitness, had been pinned on her.

It's like being made a scapegoat.

But there is no room for denial now.

"Horikita probably didn't expect Class C to be so shameless," Hachiman said at just the right moment. "They even worsened their injuries to frame students from our class."

"So this is why your Class C had no bottom line from the very beginning."

"And we have always been responding normally."

"You agree with me, Student Council President," Hachiman said.

So, everyone turned their attention to the Student Council President.

The president has long since stopped resting his chin on the back of his hand.

He gently pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"The ruling stands," he said.

In other words, the penalty requirements will not be changed.

"As for First Year Class C, although the school Meritocracy, there are some actions that will not bring you any benefits even after you enter society."

"I hope you can learn from this."

With that, the Student Council President walked out.

"President!"

Secretary Akane Tachibana glanced in their direction, then quickly grabbed her notebook and followed.

However, this also signifies the end of the trial.

"So, not only am I innocent, but Class C was deducted 400 points?"

Sudō only realized it then. "So our class actually Class Advancement?"

"Yes," Hachiman said. "I am very moved by your perseverance in defending yourself and protecting the class's score, Sudo."

"Hey!"

Sudō instantly felt triumphant.

"I told you, I was acting in self-defense, I'm fine!"

"Damn it, Ryuen!"

So it was all done by Ryuen, right?

"By the way, do you have any past grievances with Ryuen?" Hachiman continued to inquire.

Generally speaking, questioning the victim is a bad thing, because the perpetrator is always at fault.

But.

If there is absolutely no connection, then it's hard to say.

The reason Ryuen chose to target Sudō was...

"This..." Ken Sudō's expression seemed somewhat embarrassed.

This suggests that he may have been bullied by Ryuen in private.

Because Sudō looks rough and fierce, but he is all bark and no bite.

Hachiman noticed this on his first day of school.

"Hachiman."

At this moment, Suzune Horikita looked towards Hachiman.

Because.

Although her class ultimately won the trial, she did not forget that she was not informed at all that the other party had obtained evidence of Sudō's fight, and she only learned that he had evidence 10 minutes before the trial began.

Result.

I was just made a witness without being informed by the other party.

So, she was thinking about where the other person placed her.

Not trusted.

But are they just being arbitrarily made the scapegoat?

Hachiman didn't reply to Horikita at this moment, but looked at Sudō instead.

"You all speak, you all speak." Sudō, at this point, showed some insight. "I'll be going now. Thank you, Horikita, for recording that evidence for me, otherwise I would have been in trouble."

With that, Sudō ran away.

Because of the assault incident, he was not only criticized by his classmates, but also did not get along well in clubs.

The club president immediately revoked his status as a regular player.

Now, he's going to tell those upperclassmen the results announced by the Student Council, so there's absolutely no problem with his character!

His physical fitness is fine, and his passion for basketball is absolutely unquestionable!

In this way.

Hachiman and Horikita also came out of the room.

We arrived at this side of the corridor.

Hachiman paused for two steps and replied to Horikita had just said that she was an eyewitness.

"This is one possible solution."

"Our goal is to get into Class A, and you probably are too."

"That's just what makes Hirata and Kushida so good, while you don't have much popularity in the class."

"Therefore, we need to accumulate some knowledge, so that it will be much easier for us to guide our classmates in the next exam."

That statement... is indeed true.

Hachiman broke the camera, and although Hirata managed to mitigate the damage, some classmates still perceive Hachiman as a terrible person.

Then, when he takes the lead in speaking, some classmates don't listen.
