So if you promote someone else, the effect might be different.

If that's the reason, then Suzune Horikita can accept it.

"Besides," Hachiman said, "Your brother is here today, you don't want to be unable to do anything, do you?"

"So... you took control of Class C, and then pinned the blame for retaliating against Class C on me."

"Is this to make me look good in front of my brother?"

Suzune Horikita's voice trembled slightly. "I'm very grateful for that, but my brother probably thinks I didn't think of that much."

"So you don't need to do that next time."

Suzune then gently shook her head.

"..."

And the Chabashira watched over this place.

She felt that Suzune Horikita was somewhat like her past self, but also not quite.

Because I'm not as easily fooled as Suzune Horikita.

P. S.: Waaah, sorry, the big update scheduled for the 20th will have to be postponed to 12 noon on the 22nd. I only have 18,000 words saved up. Grandma woke up, but she still can't move and needs someone to take care of her.

I have to be at the hospital today and tomorrow.

I'm typing on my phone in the hospital, so it's super slow... Sorry.

So we need to accumulate some experience.

Chapter 72: The first month ends, Ryuen Class! 0 points!

Chabashira felt that Suzune Horikita had been deceived.

Because she had already figured out that Suzune Horikita was probably pushed out by Hachiman to fill in.

Hirata and Kushida are both potential threats, so if certain specific events occur, they cannot provide positive support.

Therefore, someone needs to step forward.

And for this Hachiman Hikigaya chose Suzune Horikita.

Admittedly, although Horikita is not strong enough, she is the Student Council President's sister after all, and perhaps there is still potential to be tapped.

Therefore, raising the issue first is a good strategy.

However, this also means that Hachiman Hikigaya's plan to be promoted to Class A might not be very formal, so he needs to put forward someone to represent the positive side first, and he might do some things that are not generally accepted in order to achieve his goal.

So he and Horikita would be in a relationship of one being white and the other black.

However, everything is moving in a positive direction.

After all, Class D is now Class C. Their Class Advancement progress has instantly increased by 30%!

However, some people don't feel good about it.

That's Ryuen Kakeru from First Year Class C.

On the other side...

Ryuen Kakeru was still in class, waiting for his class's trial to end so he could decide the outcome.

There are only two possible outcomes.

1. Both sides should be punished equally.

2. Sudō of Class D is held responsible and points are deducted. Therefore, Class D will be relegated to the next lower class.

Then perhaps because Class D made some efforts, the trial was postponed.

But as long as we can get an extension, we've already achieved our goal.

This means that even if he made an exaggerated claim like he was fighting three people at once, the Student Council would still handle it normally. Doesn't that mean the school allows some underhanded tactics?

If the school approves, then if things go well, we can quickly take down Class B fulfill our agreement with Class A.

Thinking this way.

"Ryuen!"

Ryuen noticed that Daichi Ishizaki and the others had run into the classroom from outside.

"So, what was the result?"

Ryuen didn't plan to discuss this kind of thing in class, since there was a camera in the classroom.

"Actually..."

Daichi Ishizaki scratched his head, seemingly with a lump in his throat, while Komiyama and Yamamoto caught up.

"We failed."

Komiyama finally spoke somewhat timidly.

"Ryuen." The homeroom teacher of Class C, Kazuma Sakagami, walked over and said. "You have been seen through and exploited by the students of Class D."

"Suzune Horikita from Class D, she initially filmed Ishizaki and the others fighting with Sudō, and then presented it in court."

"The evidence is conclusive."

"This is the biggest mistake!" said the Kazuma Sakagami.

"What the hell!"

Ryuen then realized that he wasn't the only one using underhanded tactics in the school.

Some people saw through his plan and used it against him.

As a result, Class C didn't gain any benefits but was instead heavily penalized, becoming the first class in the school's history to be relegated to the bottom in the first month.

And here in Class D.

"So, not only did we not get any points deducted, but Class C will also have 400 points deducted?"

"So, we've become Class C just like that?"

Although it was after school, the students in Class D did not leave the classroom.

Instead, they are waiting for the outcome of the court hearing.

After all, everyone has been working hard these days, and they even signed a mutual agreement with Hachiman Hikigaya, which has increased their self-discipline.

Then I accumulated points.

But if Sudō were to squander it all by himself, no one could stand that.

Because the school's free mountain vegetable meal was so bad, nobody wanted to continue eating it, so we can't go without living expenses next month!

Of course, some people also felt that the self-discipline they had been practicing these past few days was very difficult and they couldn't bear it.

So if Sudō loses all his points, does that mean he can stop being self-disciplined?

Therefore, some students want to give up.

But what awaited them was a completely unexpected and delightful result.

Not only did they not get any points deducted, but they also inexplicably Class Advancement!

"This is all thanks to Horikita," Hachiman said. "She was an eyewitness from the beginning."

"Huh? Horikita is an eyewitness, so why didn't you speak up at the beginning?"

While Hachiman was speaking, one of the students volunteered to speak.

The other person had a beautiful golden ponytail and very delicate features.

This is Kei Karuizawa.

So, Karuizawa once again took the lead and spoke first.

Do you really love your class that much? Or are you just trying to show off?

However, Hachiman continued.

"Because what was clearly seen was Sudō being bullied by the students of Class C, but Ryuen from Class C falsely accused Sudō."

"This behavior is very strange."

"Furthermore, what if Ryuen succeeds in making this false accusation and then uses the same trick to bully the other students in our class?" Hachiman said.

"Eh!" Karuizawa sat down instantly.

The other students also felt lucky.

Sudō isn't usually very popular, and he's also a hot-tempered guy, so it's normal for him to get into fights.

However, Hachiman's translation is now: Class C is actually bullying people.

So Sudō was actually chosen as the target of bullying.

So this punishment has indeed dampened the arrogance of Class C and protected everyone.

"Horikita is truly visionary."

"You think too highly of everyone!" another student immediately remarked.

"Yes, that's right," Kushida chimed in.

She's the innocent and pure girl in the class, so of course I'd strike up a conversation at a time like this.

But her expression seemed genuine; perhaps that wasn't what she truly felt inside.

Because she now probably understands how Suzune Horikita felt half an hour ago.

That is, Hachiman told Hirata and Chabashira-sensei that he was an eyewitness, but not her.

She was reflecting on the differences between herself and these two people.

And this is especially true for Kushida.

Feel...

Despite her efforts to build a good relationship with Suzune Horikita every day, and even in searching for eyewitnesses in the Sudō incident, the eyewitness turned out to be right beside her.

That's Suzune Horikita.

So, Suzune Horikita didn't tell her any news at all?

As expected, I still haven't gained any of their trust.

As Hachiman was explaining this, Hirata glanced in his direction.

Because he remembered Hachiman telling him that he was the eyewitness, so why did it become Horikita?

However, Hirata didn't say anything; rather, Hachiman's words had persuaded him.

As Yosuke Mama, she didn't want her classmates to be harmed by the students in Class C, so eliminating the danger beforehand would be the best option.

He doesn't think violence is a good thing.

After all.

He has done this before.

In this way.

The Sudō incident ended, and time returned to the present.

During his lunch break, Hachiman went to the cafeteria on the third floor.

Today, I received news that someone is willing to treat me to dinner.

He also received 2 million points as an advance payment from Chabashira-sensei for this incident.

Yes.

The agreement between Hachiman and Chabashira-sensei is that if Hachiman successfully Class Advancement, Chabashira will pay between 10 million and 30 million yen, depending on her own wishes.

But now, they've already paid 2 million points in advance.
