Ichinose, you will regret it.

Teacher Hoshinomiya distributed the information as he spoke.

Special rules?

Uesugi Gen has not forgotten the various abnormalities he discovered after arriving at the school.

It was because he was too focused on this aspect that Ichinose took advantage of the opportunity.

Uesugi Gen clenched his fists in grief and anger in his seat.

Uesugi Gen took the information passed down from the table in front, said thank you, and then looked through it quietly.

The general format is a manual that records school-related matters.

Tokyo Metropolitan Koukou Ikusei High School boasts a 99% success rate in securing jobs of their dreams. Its educational resources surpass those of similar schools, boasting a wide variety of cutting-edge teaching equipment.

From its overall appearance, it's more like an artificial island city than a school. Besides the school, the facility also includes amenities like karaoke, a cinema, cafes, clothing stores, and more—it's not an exaggeration to call it a small commercial district. The land, according to the description, is at least 600,000 square meters.

Generally speaking, they are all various introductions to the school. You don’t need to spend too much time on them. Just take a quick glance and you will know the general content.

Suddenly, Uesugi Gen's fingers paused as he turned the pages of the book, stopping the process of flipping through the information.

It was just a short paragraph, with the title "S System" at the beginning and only a few sentences below.

Is it used in the school's 'competitive evaluation system' for judging students?

Uesugi Gen looked at this short paragraph meaningfully.

"I'm handing out student ID cards to each of you now. These are also mobile phones, known as terminals within the school. You'll need them to make purchases, dine, and entertain yourself. Simply place them in the appropriate area and show or tap them. It's very simple. I believe that all the students in this class are very smart, and you'll understand once you try them out."

Xing Zhigong's praise was thrown out as if it was free, and a small number of students lowered their heads shyly.

"But remember, use will consume points, so be careful not to overuse them when buying things."

Teacher Xing Zhigong changed his tone and warned seriously,

"There's nothing you can't buy with points on campus. You can buy anything you own on school property."

The last sentence is a bit redundant, or maybe the teacher has something that he cannot say, so he uses this method to deliberately remind us.

Uesugi Gen pinched his chin and looked at the somewhat childish teacher on the stage.

Can you buy anything? If it just means that money can buy everything, then there is no need for the school to go to the trouble of creating points to replace yen. It can just use yen directly.

Just like when playing games you can only purchase specific items with the in-game currency, the same reason should apply to points. The most likely reason is that points can be used to purchase things that cannot be purchased with yen.

Considering that it is specifically mentioned that everything can be bought, it means that more abstract scopes than physical objects can also be considered, such as rules.

Thinking of this, Uesugi Gen's doubts not only did not ease, but became even worse. What was the purpose of spending such a huge amount of money and manpower to carry out such an operation?

"If you accidentally lose it, you will have to spend extra points to reissue it."

"In this school, your daily living expenses are covered by the school. Points will be deposited into your account on the first of every month."

Uesugi Gen took the phone and clicked on the points page - 100,000.

"Now, please check your accounts. Each of you should have been distributed 100,000 points. One point is equivalent to one yen. Please check that the amount is correct. If there is any mistake, please tell the teacher now."

"T-a hundred thousand?!"

"How many, how many?!"

"Is this true? One hundred thousand?"

……

The students in Class B were getting excited. After all, one hundred thousand was not a small amount of money for a student. The annual income of most white-collar workers in Tokyo was only in the range of 400-600 yuan.

The students in Class B were excitedly expressing their excitement around them, but even at this time they were very considerate of the teacher and did not shout out loud, but just whispered quietly.

Gen Uesugi flipped through the booklet, lifted up the front two legs of his chair, and leaned back to ask Shibata in the back seat.

"Shibata, I'm not very familiar with this area, so let me ask you, how much pocket money do you usually get per month?"

Shibata scratched his head, wondering why Uesugi Gen asked such a question, but he still gave an answer.

"It's about 5000 yen a month. Sometimes my family gives a little more, but it's generally within this range. Uesugi, do you think there's anything wrong?"

Uesugi Gen did not answer Shibata's question, but continued to ask Shibata,

"Shibata, do you want to play a game?"

"Hmm, games? I played games like Pokémon when I was little. But then I didn't play much because I had to go to soccer training regularly."

"You usually have this when you play games, right? When the protagonist first enters the game, a guiding character like the village chief will give the protagonist an initial amount of funds so that the protagonist can better develop on the game server."

"Uesugi, what do you mean? These 10 points are the initial funding for the school and our development. Is it possible that there will be no funding or only a small amount of funding in the future?"

"Ah, after all, Mr. Hoshinomiya never said he would give out 10 points every month, right? He just said the points would be deposited at the beginning of each month."

Uesugi Gen looked at the smiling Hoshinomiya teacher in the distance and reminded him,

"Indeed. This is indeed the most reasonable explanation."

A cold voice interrupted the conversation between Uesugi Gen and Shibata.

The person who spoke was the handsome boy sitting next to Uesugi Gen, with neat purple hair, a handsome face and a tall figure.

"Who are you? Eavesdropping on others is not polite."

Uesugi Gen glanced at the purple-haired boy with dissatisfaction.

"Mysterious Ryuji, please give me some advice."

Kanzaki Ryuji extended his hand in a friendly manner to Uesugi Gen across the aisle.

"Uesugi Gen."

Seeing that Kanzaki Ryuji took the initiative to show goodwill, Uesugi Gen also readily let the matter go.

"As for how to verify this idea, just ask the person involved directly. Leave it to me."

Kanzaki Ryuji raised his hand to indicate that Mr. Hoshinomiya had a problem.

Not only Kanzaki Ryuji, but also Ichinose, who was sitting in front of Uesugi Gen on the right, raised his hands at almost the same time.

Teacher Hoshinomiya put one hand on her waist and pointed casually with her fair and tender hand.

"Just ask whatever you want to ask. The teacher's class is very casual. As long as everyone abides by the rules, everything will be fine."

Ichinose stood up and asked directly,

"Teacher, although our school has a national background, a class of 40 students, a grade of 160 students, and 1600 million yuan a month is such a huge sum of money, which is directly given to students without any cost. Although I am a little reluctant to admit it, I don't think we can provide such value to the school."

Listening to Ichinose's heroic speech, Uesugi Gen curled his lips and said, "I thought this guy was the type with big breasts and no brains, but I didn't expect that he not only has big breasts but also a smart brain."

After Ichinose finished speaking, Kanzaki stood up and added,

"Teacher Hoshinomiya, will these 10 points be distributed every month from now on, or is this month a special case? If they're only distributed in the first month, I can understand that the school is giving them to students specifically for their future living expenses. But if they're distributed every month, as Ichinose-san said, I don't think we have such value."

After listening to the two people's questions, Mr. Xingzhigong showed a satisfied smile on his face and nodded.

"As Kanzaki-san said, these 100,000 points are not credited every month. Instead, they are awarded by the school based on your own value."

Is it worth it?

Uesugi Gen's pupils shrank slightly, and he accurately captured the key point of Hoshinomiya's words.

"What are the criteria for the teacher's points?"

Ichinose continued to question Mr. Hoshinomiya.

"This is prohibited."

Xing Zhigong crossed his arms in front of his chest and made a big cross.

After hearing Mr. Hoshinomiya's explanation, Kanzaki and Ichinose lowered their heads in thought.

Seeing that Ichinose and the others were silent, Mr. Hoshinomiya comforted them.

"Okay, okay, you'll gradually understand these things after you get used to them."

Seeing this, everyone tactfully stopped asking further questions.

After a moment of silence, Kanzaki turned his head.

"Uesugi, what do you think?"

"Me? Of course I'll just sit back and watch. Right now, there's too little information to draw any conclusions. I can only wait for the school to release more information."

"Yeah, it seems that this is the only way for now."

……

Uesugi Gen watched this round of confrontation quietly and had no intention of intervening.

It seems that Teacher Xing Zhigong has been told by the school not to disclose any specific matters, and no matter how much he asks, he won't get anything out of her. Even if he does get anything out of her, she will probably be in trouble.

Gen Uesugi saw that Hoshinomiya was willing to tell the students the truth, but due to the school's limitations, they could only try their best to give hints. Otherwise, the students would not have known so much information at the beginning, so Uesugi did not want to make things difficult for this new homeroom teacher.

As for intelligence, there are many ways to get it if you want it.

The simplest thing is to ask Shibata to squat in the second or third grade toilet for a day and eavesdrop. The first graders may not know, but the upper grades will definitely know. Men are a species that especially likes to share secrets when they are using the toilet. In a day, you will always hear something.

However, this is no different from cheating, so we should just follow the school's arrangements and see what tricks it can come up with.

"Remember to go to Gymnasium No. 1 for the opening ceremony in an hour. The teacher has some opening meetings to attend, so he won't be with you. During this time, you can use your time as you wish."

Teacher Hoshinomiya left the classroom with a sweet smile for the whole class.

"Well, during this time, so that we can spend these three years happily, let's briefly introduce ourselves."

Ichinose Kamigamoto said this with full energy while standing on the podium.

When did you go up there?

Looking at Ichinose who appeared on the podium at some point, Uesugi Gen was too tired to complain.

This woman has perfect social skills, so terrifying and invincible.

Please give me data, please give me data, thank you readers

Chapter 3 The Boring Truth

It's not my illusion, is it?

In the gymnasium, Uesugi Gen thought as he watched the crowds of students from various classes arriving one after another.

The huge gymnasium is divided into four distinct areas.

Although it is not obvious, in Uesugi Gen's opinion,

Overall, the quality of students in classes A to D shows differences.

Group A lined up without the teacher's guidance and waited quietly for the opening ceremony to begin.

Although Class B had lined up consciously, they were still whispering to the friends they had just met.

When we got to Class C, there was no such thing as queuing. The students just stood there casually, talking to their new classmates.

Uesugi Gen even saw bruises from fighting on a few students.

As for Class D, they were even more bizarre. They loudly discussed the use of 10 points, boasted, lied, and told dirty jokes regardless of the occasion.

He even laughed out loud, looking very proud.

Although a few students tried their best to prevent this from happening, they were obviously powerless to do anything about it.

Such a neat arrangement obviously cannot be a coincidence.

The four classes, ABCD, should have been divided into different categories based on their strengths and weaknesses in some way when the school first divided the classes.

Although the specific method of division is unknown, it is clear that student literacy accounts for a considerable part.

It seems that I am really lucky to be assigned to Class B. Class A is too serious and boring and not suitable for me.

If it was Class C, there would be students fighting too vigorously on the first day, and it would be bad if the flowers and plants were hurt.

As for Class D, in Uesugi Gen's opinion, some of the students cannot even be called students and do not have the qualities to be students.

So Class B is still the best. Although it was cursed by the evil Ichinose, it is still very good overall. The classmates have harmonious relationships, are willing to help me, and their quality is not too low.

The entrance ceremony is no different from that of any other school.

It ended smoothly after Uesugi Gen listened to the principal's lecture in a daze.

In the morning, after students had a general understanding of the relevant instructions within the school, the class was dismissed and left for free activities.
