How About Trying to Accept Kushida? After All, She's a Bomb!
And they were in the corner.
Kushida gently clenched her left hand and then said.
"I've been trying to contact upperclassmen these past few days."
"And then I finally fit into a small circle," Kushida said. She spoke so casually about things others couldn't do.
"Then I heard from a senior that our exam papers have always been the same ones used before. So, the seniors from the previous two years have our exam papers."
"Then this exam might be the same."
"Because their class, and the class before them, all had the same exam paper passed down."
Kushida said.
After delivering this special message, he looked at Hachiman and Suzune Horikita.
Of course, as an important goal for Kushida first went to see Suzune Horikita.
However, Suzune Horikita's expression remained unchanged.
But.
In reality, however, he was inwardly in turmoil.
Is such a thing possible?
"The school actually allows students to cheat openly?" Suzune Horikita said.
As a top student, she was surprised. She even felt it was unfair.
"..." Hachiman.
"Ordinary exams are a test of the knowledge we have learned. But..."
"This school's Special Exam can't be approached with conventional methods," Hachiman said. "Perhaps it's trying to hone us through these exams, training us to meet the needs of society."
"Therefore, the exam after the first month of enrollment may be to test whether we can discover the true nature of this school."
"Even if I don't damage the cameras and expose the class evaluation scores, and the teachers can only tell us about the nature and rules of the school in advance, they will still inform us on the 1st of this month."
"So perhaps this is guiding us to avoid being too rigid in our thinking."
And if what Kushida said is true...
The exam paper is the same one that was used before, so you only need to memorize the answers to pass!
Is this the key to passing this exam?
If you've thought this through, then you can ask the older students for the exam papers.
Only.
"Just asking," Hachiman said. "What year and class is that upperclassman you contacted, Kushida-kun?"
"Third-year Class D, is there a problem?" Kushida asked.
Um.
Of course there's a problem.
"So, did she make an offer to you?" Hachiman asked.
"Huh? How did you know? She said she was willing to only charge 40,000 points if we wanted them."
40,000 points.
In other words, it was for selling exam papers.
That's very realistic.
The students in Third-year Class D are very poor. They don't have much money and are eating unappetizing vegetable meals. Of course, they want to earn some extra money. But this also means that it's reasonable for students to buy and sell exam papers among themselves in this school.
But.
"Then let's contact Ichinose," Hachiman said. "Their class also contributed to our preparation for this exam."
In other words, it's about sharing information, right?
"Mmm." So Kushida continued working. But when she tried to take out her phone, she put it away again.
Because Honami Ichinose was also in the cafeteria.
"Ichi no Yori".
"Kushida".
From afar, Kushida waved to Ichinoyori and went to greet him with a joyful expression.
"What a coincidence."
Kushida's face was filled with joy and a hint of relief. "Great, I actually ran into Ichinose-kun here."
"Hey? What's up?"
Ichinose was slightly surprised and asked softly.
"Yes, that's how it is."
Kushida paused for a moment, as if organizing his thoughts, and said softly, "I got some information from the upperclassmen that the content of this exam is actually the same as the previous one. So the second and third-year students still have the same exam papers. I thought it might be helpful for your Class B, so I rushed to tell you."
"I see."
Ichinose nodded slightly, but her expression remained unchanged.
"I know about this too. In fact, I was thinking of telling you all about it."
Ichinose nodded gently, a sweet smile on his face, and said softly, "But thank you anyway, Kushida."
"Huh? Is that so?"
Kushida looked surprised. How did Ichinoyori know?
"Hmm, it was a senior member of the Student Council who told me."
Seeing Kushida's expression, Ichinose hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "That senior wants me to join the Student Council and help him. So, he told me this."
"I see."
Kushida nodded and smiled sweetly.
Originally, the authenticity could not be determined, but now that Ichinoyori says that a member of the Student Council is vouching for him...
Therefore, it can be basically confirmed that it is true.
Hachiman was deep in thought.
The Student Council senior who tells Ichinose this kind of thing might not have pure intentions.
Since it was also a written exam, Horikita's brother, didn't say anything.
So this Student Council senior might have ulterior motives.
Chapter 79: How about trying to accept Kushida? After all, she's a bomb!
Ichinose didn't explicitly say who this Student Council senior was, but Hachiman assumed the person had ill intentions.
To understand why I say this, let's do an analysis.
This is because older students generally don't proactively tell younger students this kind of information. Although the school implicitly acknowledges that test papers can be bought and sold, there are still some restrictions.
Otherwise, if all the information from the older students is leaked to the younger students, then the school will no longer be able to assess the younger students.
Hachiman felt there might be some restrictions, such as being told that if it wasn't a lower-grade student who brought it up, then he couldn't tell the other person the information.
Therefore, such actions of actively seeking out younger students will definitely be dealt with if reported.
Therefore, there are also things that upperclassmen need to be careful about.
So now that this senior student has taken the initiative to approach Ichinose, is he knowingly breaking the law?
It seems the other party has an ulterior motive.
Perhaps it's because Ichinose is cute that I want to pursue her.
That's for sure.
Hachiman also spoke highly of Ichinose, describing her as a gentle and tolerant girl, and not inferior to Suzune Horikita in terms of looks.
Marrying a girl like that must be a real treat.
Thinking about it for a moment, I feel that if I were to marry someone Sakayanagi Arisu Sakayanagi, I might be constantly restricted.
Therefore, Ichinose is a popular marriage candidate.
No boy dislikes her.
But.
This stemmed from an idea that I was interested in pursuing Ichinose, but what if it wasn't like that?
So why would someone say something like that to Ichinose in First Year Class B?
That's for utilitarian reasons.
Since Ichinose is a student in Class B and also the representative of Class B, contacting him might allow her to control the First Year Class B.
"Could you give me a list of Student Council?" Hachiman then sent the information to Manabu Horikita.
"..."
Manabu Horikita was probably looking at his phone when he replied immediately, but only sent two dots.
"Of course I will pay points," Hachiman continued typing.
"..." Manabu Horikita still sent two dots, but added a QR code for receiving payments at the end.
So Hachiman scanned the QR code and entered the points.
Staring at the numbers that have been paid in the past.
1000 points.
The Student Council President is so fair!
Then the result was obtained.
The current Student Council has a total of seven members.
Of these seven people, only the secretary, Akane Tachibana, is a girl.
Five of them are third-year students, but the two Vice President are second-year students.
One of the Vice President, Miyabi Nagumo, is the blond, handsome guy that Hachiman often encounters in the Student Council who displays his Vice President sign.
Another Vice President is named Kiriyama.
According to Ichinose, the other party wanted her to join the Student Council and work for him, so she would need to be at least the Vice President to have that kind of authority.
"Could you give me more information about Vice President Nagumo and Vice President Kiriyama?" Hachiman continued sending messages.
[50,000 points.] Manabu Horikita sent a message.
However, this time Manabu Horikita did not provide a QR code for receiving payments.
And Hachiman, of course, did not continue to make payments.
Because Manabu Horikita to type quickly.
[I've paid you. Vice President Nagumo's full name is Miyabi Nagumo. He used to be First Year Class B, but he successfully rose to Class A, so I brought him to the Student Council and gave him the position of Vice President.]
[Kiriyama was originally a student in Class A, the Class representative, and had certain abilities, so after Nagumo, I also recruited him into the Student Council.]
Manabu Horikita's information was brief, but contained a lot of information.
First of all, he actually paid the points himself.
He had paid for it once before, when he was teaching his younger sister a lesson that was educational.
And now, why are we paying points for him?
It's possible... the information Hachiman is asking about now might be related to Manabu Horikita himself.
In other words, the other party wanted to invite him to join the Student Council, but Hachiman thought he might be assigned some troublesome tasks, and it turns out this rumor is true.
