People at the practical education center only want to drop out.

"What you're saying is all based on your own opinion. Let's be practical. You said that although he doesn't speak nicely, he's actually very helpful?"

I don't believe it. What happened in the classroom yesterday was probably just a coincidence. He was just trying to get his tongue out and showed off, and accidentally let me know that information.

Therefore, we obtained this intelligence through our own abilities and at a cost.

"If you're so capable, give me another example of him helping someone else!"

19. Sudo's assistance successfully cleared his name, but damaged his public image.

The person speaking was a boy with side-swept bangs.

Although Class D hadn't gone through the self-introduction process yet, he was considered a "celebrity" in the class, so many people in the class knew the boy's name—Ike Kanji.

However, although he became famous, it was not a good fame.

He was one of the main initiators of the "Serene Chat Group" yesterday, who disregarded the presence of the girls in the class, recklessly commented on their figures, and even got into an argument with the hot girls in the class who couldn't stand it anymore.

If it weren't for Bai Lan's sudden emergence, then Chi Kuanzhi and his cronies would have been the most hated and despised group in the class.

Chi Kuanzhi and his clique were the ones who least wanted to see Bai Lan's status in the class rise.

After all, once Bai Lan rises to power, they will have no one left to rely on.

There's even a possibility that Shirai could become the next Hirata.

Ike didn't want another Hirata in the class.

Because he disliked Hirata.

To be precise, he disliked every boy who was more popular with girls than him.

Therefore, he dislikes any guy who is even slightly charming and has female admirers.

In addition, he is also a serious "discipline-challenged household".

Whether it was to suppress Hirata and Shirai to make himself stand out, or to avoid strict disciplinary control, he had to reject what Hirata said.

After listening to Chi's question.

Hirata opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

To be honest, this is a really difficult question.

After all, we've only been at school for less than 24 hours. At this time yesterday, we were all still on our way!

How could I possibly have time to do so many good deeds?

Besides, Hirata only spent half of the orientation period with Shirai, so even if she did it, he wouldn't know!

Hirata looked troubled: "Ike-kun, your question..."

However, at that moment, someone unexpectedly spoke:

"He helped."

Everyone turned to look.

I discovered he was a tall man with a buzz cut.

"Sudo? You... which side are you on?" Ike jumped up and down.

Sudo, Sudo Ken.

This was the same person who forgot his student ID at the convenience store yesterday, and Bai Lan helped him pay, but almost made him want to hit her.

Actually, Sudo didn't think much of it. He just suddenly realized that he seemed to know a "knowledge point" that no one else knew. This made him feel an urge to show off, and he blurted it out.

Seeing the accusing look in his friend's eyes, Sudo was still thinking of explaining.

At this moment, Hirata spoke first: "Sudo-kun, may I ask?"

Sudo noticed the curious and expectant looks he was receiving from those around him, which made him feel like a superstar.

Ignoring his friend's resentful gaze, Sudo replied as if "showing off," "At the convenience store, I forgot my student ID, and Shirai used his student ID to pay for my points."

After I paid the points, I saw him take out his phone and show me his profile, asking me to scan his QR code.

I was even thinking about whether I should be magnanimous and forgive him.

As a result, he asked me to add his account and transfer money to him via mobile phone, and then asked me to pay him back!

There were a lot of people around, and I didn't want to lose points for the class; otherwise, I would have punched him.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Sudo, in a state of blissful euphoria, recounted his experiences as if pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

After listening, Hirata laughed: "You see, Shiro is actually quite kind-hearted, but she just doesn't know how to talk to people. She clearly helped someone, but she made them angry. Besides, lending and repaying money is a normal thing, there's no need to be angry..."

After this real-life example, everyone suddenly felt that Hirata's words were much more credible.

"So, it seems that Shiro really helped Sudo."

"And the one helping them is Sudo!"

"Yes! He's even willing to work with Sudo."

Sudo: !!

"What do you mean by saying such nonsense?" Sudo couldn't help but yell at the person who had just spoken. "Are you dissatisfied with me?"

“Isn’t that right?” a girl stood up and said, “You have such a fierce face, a bad temper, and you don’t speak any better than Bai. You’re like a thug. Normal people would avoid you like the plague, afraid of getting into trouble. Who would associate with you, let alone offer to pay for you?”

"Oh right, oh right! Now that you mention it, isn't Bai actually a really good person? And he doesn't bully the weak or fear the strong. Although he doesn't speak nicely, he's actually very kind-hearted, and he's also very handsome."

"Yeah, he's handsome~ I used to think he was scary, but now I see, isn't he just a tsundere? A tsundere who's cold on the outside but warm on the inside, this setting is really interesting."

"Whether he's handsome or not doesn't matter. What I like is someone with high moral character and a willingness to help others. It's okay if he's a little sharp-tongued; it's part of the fun."

"You wouldn't be thinking of...?"

"Can't I just think about it?"

Suddenly, Bai Lan's popularity among female students skyrocketed.

As for boys.

Some boys expressed respect for Bai Lan's actions, but many more felt... jealousy.

"Damn it! It's only been less than 24 hours since the start of the semester, and I haven't put in as much time as Hirata, yet I've already gained so many girls' affections. Damn it!"

"Wait! I just remembered something... Hahaha, you girls, stop thinking about it! I think I saw Bai Lan walking out of a convenience store with a girl yesterday, and they were flirting all the way! That girl looks like Horikita from our class."

"what?"

"Horikita?"

Everyone turned to look at the last row of the classroom, at the table next to the empty seat that Bai Lan had left vacant.

At this moment, Horikita Suzune was flipping through her textbook, beginning her preview of the lesson.

Hearing someone mention her name, Horikita subconsciously looked up, and at the same time habitually tucked the black hair that had fallen onto her face while she was looking down at her book behind her ear, revealing a beautiful face that was alluring even with a cool expression.

Many boys were stunned. After they came to their senses, they gritted their teeth and said: "That Bai Lan is despicable!"

Seeing everyone staring at her, Horikita glared back without flinching, then frowned and said coldly, "Your atmosphere is polluting me. To be honest, it's a bit disgusting."

Suddenly, the boys stopped envying Bai Lan and instead thought she was amazing.

"A girl like Horikita, how could Shiro-kun flirt with her? That's unbelievable!"

"Aren't you afraid of being killed by her sharp tongue?"

"It's definitely fake. Bai is also a sharp-tongued person. I suspect they're just being sarcastic to each other."

......

"Or is Bai a hidden masochist? Does he just like that? He does things that make people hate him because he wants to be criticized. The more he's criticized, the more excited he gets?"

"well--???"

Bai Lan's reputation has been damaged.

"Oh, right!" Hirata spoke again: "I hope everyone will keep this a secret from Shiro for now, and not let him know that we know his intentions."

After all, his plan is designed to be effective when no one knows about it.

If we expose him, Bai will definitely feel that his efforts have been in vain and will be very disappointed.

It's all my fault. I didn't want to see everyone so tense, and Bai being ostracized by everyone, so I couldn't help but say it.

I value class unity and harmony more than grades and rankings.

Please don't expose Bai's true colors; just don't be hostile towards him.

Of course, if we can perform better and get a good score and ranking, it would be even better to surprise Bai. At the same time, everyone will receive more living expenses.

Everyone readily agreed.

Tea Pillar witnessed all of this.

Chazhu didn't believe that these things were really Bai Lan's true intentions.

But she knew that this was indeed the most acceptable "truth" for the class at the moment.

Besides, Chabashira always felt that these "truths" were not something Hirata himself could analyze...

Could it be that Bai Lan secretly asked Hirata to cooperate, playing the good cop and the bad cop?

Or is there someone else?

........

soon.

The first class has ended.

Not long after, the second class ended.

Before the bell rang for the third class.
