……

In the afternoon, Takuma Tsukishiro appeared in the Go club.

"Business is bad right now. Everyone is busy with midterm exams." Odagiri Saito said with a bitter face.

The activity became increasingly sluggish. Except for some confident students and LSPS, no one paid attention to the quiz with prizes.

Is it because the big prize is not attractive?

No, it's just that the questions are too difficult.

Most students’ skills are no higher than those of high school students, and when they cannot find the answer for several days in a row, they will naturally give up.

"It's okay, everything will be fine in the future." Tsukishiro Takuma comforted him casually, and then asked, "Have you sorted out the information about those people?"

After Nanyun showed up, Tsukishiro Takuma asked them to record those who won fourth prize and above. The content was very basic, just name, grade and class, and this information was not difficult to find out.

"Everything is sorted, but what is Tsukishiro-kun going to do?"

Odagiri Saito took out a handwritten manuscript from the side, which contained more than thirty names.

"Nothing, just a little interested in them."

Tsukishiro Takuma took a quick look and saw that there were students from basically all grades, and it was clear at a glance who was from which class.

After reading it, he asked Odagiri Saito, "The school won't publish every student's academic performance, right?"

Because Takuma Tsukishiro noticed a strange phenomenon. Although Chabashira Sae took out the scores of each class, it was just the average score, and he could not see the results of a particular student in other classes at all.

In other words, the specific learning situation in the class is also information that needs to be kept confidential... No, it should be said that the situation of each student is information.

"Most of the time it won't be announced. Only a few times will the results of the top few places be announced." Odagiri Saito spoke the information without any psychological burden. Anyway, he didn't explicitly mention it as a special exam.

Tsukishiro Takuma smiled. He already had a little understanding of the overall situation of the three grades, which was just a glimpse of the whole.

At least we know where the smart people are.

"By the way, aren't you going to prepare for the midterm exam?"

At this time, only he, Odagiri Saito, Suzuki and Onijima were still participating in the Go club activities.

As for Takahashi and Watanabe, they stayed over at the quiz with prizes.

Everyone else went to review, after all, if they didn’t do well in the exam, they would drop out. However, the senior students were still relatively relaxed, but the first-year guys were very nervous.

Odagiri Saito shook his head and said, "My academic performance is pretty good, and the deviation value is enough for me to go to a decent university."

It sounds like giving up hope for Class A privilege.

"I really envy my seniors. My grades are much worse, and there are many people in my class who are better than me."

As soon as he finished saying this, he saw the suspicious look of Odagiri Saito.

...I'm not lying, what's with that expression on your face?

"I remember there will be a quiz before the midterm exam, right? How many points did Tsukishiro-kun get? Do you need my tutoring?"

Even though he suspected that he was lying, he still chose to help him. The senior was really real, and he cried to death.

"No need, it's taking up too much of your time."

"It's okay. Isn't Tsukishiro-kun playing chess with us for free this month?"

Because of the event held last month, and the fact that Tsukishiro Takuma had not hesitated to train the Go Club as his subordinates, he generously stopped charging for instruction.

Well, it’s not because I saw everyone was dejected and about to break up.

As if because of his words, Tsukishiro Takuma thought about it for a while, and then asked: "Senior, do you still have the test paper from the previous year? Can you let me take a look at the difficulty?"

I think every high school student’s first reaction when facing an exam is to find questions and then practice original questions and simulation questions.

There doesn't seem to be such a custom in Japan. Tsukishiro Takuma was originally thinking of selling some tutoring materials.

"...I didn't keep them, but someone should still have them." Odagiri Saito looked at him deeply, "I'll ask for you when I get back."

Then, Onijima-senpai, who was playing chess, interrupted and said, "Um, President, Tsukishiro-kun, I have kept the first-year test papers."

Tsukishiro Takuma looked at him in surprise, and then saw him add: "Not only this test paper, but also test papers for other exams. Do you want them, Tsukishiro-kun?"

Odagiri Saito was not at all surprised by these words. Test papers were also a kind of intelligence, and it was normal for students to buy and sell them privately.

Tsukishiro Takuma seemed to have realized this a long time ago, and asked Onijima: "Do you have an answer?"

"Of course, but the test paper is one I did, and the handwriting is a bit sloppy." Guidao said.

"That kind of thing doesn't matter." Tsukishiro Takuma said, "Onijima-senpai said there are other test papers as well. Could it be that you have been keeping the test papers of every exam?"

He remembered that Guidao was a student in Class C of the third grade, which meant that this guy had kept the test papers for two years.

"The paper test papers are definitely gone. I only have photos."

It was so scary. I really thought he filled his dormitory with test papers.

"How many points per serving?"

"Eh--"

Onijima seemed surprised, then looked at Odagiri Saito and said hesitantly, "Five thousand points."

Tsukishiro Takuma nodded: "I understand. I will transfer 20,000 points to you right away."

"Twenty, twenty thousand points?! Um, I meant five thousand points..." Onijima thought Tsukishiro Takuma had heard wrong.

"I know that the remaining 15,000 points are a thank-you fee to Onijima-senpai. Without Onijima-senpai's help, I might have been expelled from school in this exam." Takuma Tsukishiro said sincerely.

"Thanks... Actually, I don't need it. It's okay if I don't have to do this."

Although he emphasized this, Onijima's expression was unexpectedly shaken. He was probably thinking of giving it to Tsukishiro Takuma for free at first, but later changed his mind because of Tsukishiro Takuma's words.

In fact, most people in the Go club have a deep impression of Takuma Tsukishiro, but it only comes from two reasons.

One is his Go skills, the other is his insight and execution.

There is nothing much to say about Go, everyone is convinced.

As for the latter, although it is amazing, it is also common sense. There are always a few people who are better than others, and they don’t think it’s a big deal.

The reason why Odagiri Saito bet on him was because he still had some fantasies about Class A, but no one in the third grade could beat Class A of Horikita Manabu. He could only hold on to the thought of "what if I can do it", and then half-believed Takuma Tsukishiro who had made a bet with Horikita Manabu.

If you lose, just pretend nothing happened.

If we win, maybe Tsukishiro Takuma can do something as the president of the student union.

In this school, the student union has considerable power because the school will carefully consider adopting the opinions of the student union and can change the school rules.

Others don’t know, and even if they did, they wouldn’t have any illusions about Tsukishiro Takuma.

The second-year students were so numbed by Nanyun Ya that they had no intention of resisting, while the third-year students almost lay down.

They would join in, either to accompany the president in his outbursts, or to try to figure out if they could get some points.

Well, they got their money back and even made a small profit. Only Tsukishiro Takuma was losing money.

Therefore, Tsukishiro Takuma must mobilize this group of people.

Not only because there might be spies among this group of people, but it also relates to his plans for the future.

Bribery with a large sum of money is a means.

How to bribe?

Let them see that there is money to be made?

No, it's to make them believe that they can definitely make money by following Tsukishiro Takuma.

To create an image in their minds that "Tsukishiro Takuma is very kind to his own people", and then ruthlessly destroy this illusion...

Thinking of this, Takuma Tsukishiro looked at Saito Odagiri with shining eyes.

Next, he received the test paper from Guidao.

The questions didn't seem to be very difficult, and were at the normal level for high school freshmen. I thought the questions would be the same as last time, so I'm guaranteed to get them.

Tsukishiro Takuma then transferred 20,000 points to Onijima. Anyway, he had just received sponsorship from Horikita Manabu, so he had no psychological burden to spend the points. At worst, he could just go to see Horikita Manabu with Horikita Suzune's photo next time.

After playing today's instructional game, Takuma Tsukishiro quickly walked out of the Go club.

At this time, he took out his mobile phone and saw that Masumi Kamuro had replied to him two hours ago.

"What are you doing in Class A?"

This was his initial inquiry.

"That guy was right. You came to ask me secretly after all."

"That guy hasn't made any moves, but Katsuragi is gathering information, including your D class."

"There's nothing else. Everyone is preparing for exams. It's so annoying. Why do we have exams?"

Tsukishiro Takuma looked at her reply. That Katsuragi was also from Class A. He had participated in a quiz once and won fourth prize. He seemed to be very smart.

If I remember correctly, his full name is Katsuragi Kōhei.

But it's strange that he would say it so obediently.

"Kamiro-san, I told you not to listen to her, didn't I? I was the first one to come here, wasn't I?"

The message was read immediately.

"You two really have similar tastes. I haven't said that I will definitely be your... that, right?"

Can't say that word?

"I hope you understand your position, otherwise I will write a short article to report you right away."

"Go ahead, go ahead. I wish you would expel me from school right now."

Damn it, the puppy really needs some training!

"See you next time. I will teach you what it means to be a master."

"……poor."

Tsukishiro Takuma sneered and said, "Just wait to be hypnotized like a puppy."

Although he then asked about Katsuragi.

According to Masumi Kamuro, Class A has now split into two factions. One is the conservative faction led by Katsuragi, who advocates consolidating the status of Class A first and being cautious with other classes.

The other one is the Princess Faction of Arisu Sakayanagi, which sounds very strange, as if it was a name deliberately made up by that guy Hashimoto.

There was a factional fight within Class A. Both factions were unwilling to accept each other and both agreed that only their own leader could lead Class A from victory to greater victory.

Of course, there are also some neutral students.

Tsukishiro Takuma was not too surprised by this result. How could a group of people who thought they were excellent be willing to be inferior to others without a fight?

Class A like this doesn’t seem difficult to deal with?

He looked thoughtful and noticed what Arisu Sakayanagi was thinking.

Did you intend to use him to dampen the morale of Class A and unite them as quickly as possible, so you deliberately said those words today?

What a troublesome guy, but why do you think he has this ability?

Tsukishiro Takuma was in a dilemma, as he was a useless man except for hypnosis.

054 Don't Look Up

Tsukishiro Takuma's dormitory is 404, an unlucky number.

The size of the room is about eight tatami mats, which is not too big, but after all, I live alone, so it is enough for one person.

Not only that, but there is also space for a kitchen, private bathroom and small balcony. The living conditions are much better than the collective dormitories in our home country.

Not to mention the benefits of free water and electricity, it is worthy of being a developed country.

Normally, Tsukishiro Takuma would probably lie in bed reading comics or novels, but tonight he had other things to deal with, so he dressed neatly in his uniform and waited patiently for someone to arrive.

After a while, someone rang the doorbell.

Tsukishiro Takuma took a few steps forward calmly, unlocked the door, and turned the doorknob. The next moment, he saw Horikita Suzune's cold look. She raised her eyes slightly and frowned slightly.

"You're really quick. Are you here right away?"
