Haruno took the initiative to distance herself from Hikigaya, her voice becoming slightly colder. "Regarding the car accident, let me be clear: I've never felt guilty or wanted to make amends, so please don't worry about that. It's just that knowing you're the 'troublesome little virgin' that Jing keeps mentioning has piqued my interest."

"That's great." Hikigaya automatically ignored the awkward nickname and nodded, saying, "I have things to do, so I'll be leaving."

But when Hikigaya was about to turn and leave, Haruno suddenly spoke: "Hikigaya-kun, you should have realized the truth about this school."

"The truth about school? I don't quite understand what you're talking about. I still have..."

"Really? I thought you were going to ask Xiaojing." Yang Nai smiled meaningfully and said, "So Xiaojing didn't tell you? Or is there some reason why you can't tell the students?"

Hikigaya didn't expect Haruno to be able to guess so accurately, or...

"I don't have a bad habit of eavesdropping~" Yono said as if she had already seen through what Hikigaya was thinking.

"Hey, Yukinoshita-san, why do you have to be so obsessed with me?"

Hikigaya was very puzzled by Haruno's "persistence". He didn't believe in the ridiculous reason that "he had the charm to attract the other person". What's more, in this world line, his relationship with Haruno was not that good!

To put it bluntly, the relationship between the two is not even friends. They can only be considered alumni with a very shallow relationship, or...strangers who have met each other twice.

"Because Hikigaya-kun has misunderstandings about his own abilities and evaluations."

"Misunderstanding? Yukinoshita-san is the one who overestimated me."

Hikigaya laughed at himself, thinking that he had no ability at all. If he had ability, he wouldn't be assigned to Class D. If he had ability, he wouldn't be ostracized and become the lowest class of outcasts. If he had ability, he wouldn't be unable to protect even the people he wanted to protect!

The dead-eyed boy could only say helplessly, "I admit one thing. From what happened in the gym just now, I can clearly feel that this school's student union is special. The student council president also seems to be a very strict person. Because of this, the threshold for joining the student council is definitely very high. So no matter how you think about it, they will never recruit students from Class D. On the contrary, Class A's Yukinoshita has a better chance..."

Hikigaya suddenly stopped talking halfway, a drop of cold sweat slowly running down his forehead.

"Eh? Why aren't you talking, Hikigaya-kun? I'm just listening~~"

Haruno folded her arms and looked at Hikigaya with a smile.

"I, I mean..." Hikigaya's face showed a hint of panic.

However, Haruno didn't give Hikigaya any chance to explain. She held up two fingers and looked at Hikigaya with a half-smile. "Plus, this is the second time. From the moment we were in the gym until now, Hikigaya-kun has been insisting that 'I'm a Class D student, so I have no value'. It's really strange~"

"I think I can explain it a little more..."

"It's not about what you think, it's about what I think."

"..."

Hikigaya finally understood where he had revealed his flaw. Haruno's observation skills were indeed amazing! He was only slightly careless and was caught by the opponent. At the same time, it was also Hikigaya's own carelessness!

Seeing Hikigaya remain silent, Haruno couldn't help but smile smugly, and continued, "The school has recognized and given our student council the right and mission to change the rules and regulations. Do you remember that?"

This was what the student council president said on the stage, and Hikigaya naturally remembered it clearly.

At first glance, this sentence may sound like a very formulaic speech, but if you know the truth about this school, then there is a lot of hidden information in this sentence. At the same time, Hikigaya couldn't help but recall the attitude of the senior students in the gymnasium towards the student council president, which is a bit interesting.

only.......

Since he was discovered, Hikigaya simply stopped pretending.

"As someone who is empowered by the school to change rules and regulations, the bar for joining the student council must be high, right? Between Class A and Class D, which side do you think the student council favors more, Yukinoshita-san?

In other words, which side's students are more qualified and worthy to join the student union.

So back to the original question, does my own ability and value really matter? Obviously... the key is not me, but the "D class" label I carry.

Just like the son of a congressman is still a congressman, the son of a banker is still a banker, the aristocratic faction will still choose the aristocratic faction.

Since you already know the scandal that happened in junior high school, you should understand that 'Hikigaya Hachiman' is not suitable to join the organization."

Ever since Hikigaya learned the true meaning of Class A and Class D, he had long since recognized a cruel objective fact, that is, the students in Class D are at the 'bottom' of the food chain in this school!

The Student Union is naturally the top level of this school. Will the rulers of the upper class welcome those at the lower level to be on an equal footing with them?

So the answer is already obvious.

This is not a self-deprecating or self-deprecating idea on Hikigaya's part, but a cruel reality and rule that must be recognized. Instead of fantasizing about reaching the sky in one step and being hung by someone's neck without knowing it, it is better to take one step at a time and be down-to-earth.

Of course, Hikigaya himself did not want to get involved in the "trap" set by Haruno, which had not yet been revealed. He did not want to "comply" with Haruno's intentions. The Lone Ranger's sixth sense told him that this was very suspicious, very suspicious, and extremely suspicious!

The best way is to refuse, don’t agree to anything!

"What if there is a way to leave school temporarily?" Yang Nai raised the corner of her mouth slightly, but changed the subject.

Hikigaya instinctively replied, "Don't school rules prohibit students from leaving school grounds? How is it possible..."

Suddenly, Hikigaya froze in the middle of his speech, and looked at Haruno as if remembering something: "You mean... the sports competitions that students go out to participate in?!"

The gymnasium, club recruitment, student council... all of this, Hikigaya finally understood Haruno's true intentions.

"You should still be able to see the information on the bulletin board in the teaching building about the awards that several sports clubs won in last year's IH conference. Student union members were involved in all of these events as logistics and supervisors."

So this is why Haruno joined the student council?!

Yang No's ability to discover hidden information from insignificant and easily overlooked places is truly amazing.

Chapter 20 Yang No's Intention

This ability of Yang No is enough to prove that her identity as a student of Class A is well-deserved. She is worthy of being the youth version of the big devil, the high-ranking flower of Sobu, and she is completely unable to guess what is in the other party's mind!

At the same time, the blueprint outlined by Yang No is indeed very attractive, but...

Hikigaya wasn't fooled and shook his head. "Using the student council's identity to contact the outside world? Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, how could the school not be on guard against people going out to compete? There must be a comprehensive set of measures to deal with such a situation. If any undue behavior is discovered, I think the consequences will be more than you and I can easily bear."

At least in Hikigaya's opinion, there are still huge loopholes in Haruno's actual operation. At least he doesn't think this school would be so "stupid"!

"As expected, Hikigaya-kun is very powerful. No wonder he was able to discover the truth about this school in less than two days. It's such a pity that he was assigned to Class D. I think until the school announced the truth, many students were still immersed in 'sweet dreams and paradise', completely unaware that they were already in hell." Yang No clapped her hands.

Hikigaya was completely immune to Haruno's "praise". He would be cautious and vigilant when hearing people speak their mind, and the more pleasing the words were, the more he would be. However, one piece of information caught Hikigaya's attention.

The school announced the truth?

Come to think of it, it is impossible for the school to hide the truth from the students for a long time, so the most likely possibility is that there is a buffer period. Since personal points are issued every month, the deadline for announcing the truth is probably one month later.

During the month before the school announced the truth, most students were probably still kept in the dark, and the students in Hikigaya's class were very likely... no, definitely included!

This morning, Hikigaya discovered that many of his classmates were spending money lavishly, and almost one-third or even half of the 10 personal points had been spent!

For example, the silly duo consisting of Yamauchi and Ike bought a video game console yesterday and have been playing it in class and during breaks this morning. I heard that the girl group from Karuizawa also bought a lot of cosmetics, clothes and other things at the Keyaki shopping center yesterday.

He could already foresee what kind of 'hell' scene would appear in Class D in a month.

"For students participating in competitions outside, the school will naturally have corresponding measures to prevent violations. I don't deny this." Haruno paused deliberately, then said meaningfully, "But Hikigaya-kun, I wonder if you still remember what your homeroom teacher said at the beginning of the school year?"

Upon hearing this, Hikigaya began to recall everything Chabashira-sensei had said yesterday. The content was not much and not complicated. He distributed the usual student handbooks and other materials, and then focused on introducing the S system and personal points.

and many more!

How to use personal points?

Hikigaya frowned. If it was a normal school, there would be no need to be so sensitive. However, High School was different. From the surveillance cameras, S system, class points, 10 individual points, etc., everything revealed the "rigorousness" of this school. So every word the teacher said on the first day of school was probably well thought out and would not be useless nonsense.

Suddenly, Chabashira-sensei's words caught Hikigaya's attention.

"There are no points in school..."

“Something you can’t buy!”

The two spoke at the same time. Compared to Haruno's indifference, Hikigaya looked stunned.

Hikigaya finally understood Haruno's true intentions. After joining the student council, he used his personal points to buy the opportunity to "connect with the outside world" from the school?!

Putting aside the chances of success, Hikigaya's thoughts suddenly became active after Yono's reminder, and he gained a deeper understanding of personal points. They represented not only a substitute for 'trading money', but also a bargaining chip, a bargaining chip for trading with the school!

“So now your answer is….”

"Deal! I'll work hard to get into the student council," Hikigaya said without hesitation.

Hearing this, Yang Nai smiled happily: "As expected of a good brother who loves his sister, I think we should call the police right away~"

......

After leaving the gym and returning to the student dormitory, Hikigaya lay down on the bed exhausted. What happened today had a huge impact on him.

Class D's dire situation, Haruno's student council invitation... and meeting Teacher Shizuka again.

Hikigaya had to take the information revealed by Haruno seriously.

"I thought I had pretty much seen through the truth about this school, but I didn't expect I was still careless."

Hikigaya reflected on his negligence. If it weren't for Haruno's reminder, he might not have realized the true use of personal points. Originally, Hikigaya naively thought that the value of personal points lay only in the attributes of commodity currency, but in fact, the uses of personal points are far higher than currency.

"There's nothing in school that can't be bought with points? Haha, you're such a disgusting school!" Hikigaya sneered.

In other words, the use of personal points includes but is not limited to purchasing daily necessities, but can also be used to purchase some 'invisible services'?

The first thing that came to Hikigaya's mind was his grades, then intelligence, and some of the 'privileges' that Haruno mentioned.

"But from another perspective, this can also be considered a different kind of equality." Hikigaya had a complicated expression.

Although Koukou Ikuei High School encourages competition among students, and the distribution of abilities between students in Class A and Class D is unequal, Hikigaya has to admit that the rules set by the school are relatively fair to a certain extent.

If it were placed in the outside world, there might not even be a chance to compete!

"Alas, even though I promised Yang Noi to join the student council, it sounds easy, but in reality it's still very difficult!"

The student council president looked very strict and difficult. As a student in Class D, whether he could pass his assessment was still a big unknown. Hikigaya only hoped that he could be as fair as he said when he spoke, and not try to monopolize the upper classes. Otherwise, he, a "defective product" in Class D, would really have no hope!

"But the name Horikita... doesn't it have any connection to the Iceberg Girl?"

Hikigaya couldn't help but think of that cold and arrogant girl. It seemed that she was also in the gymnasium at that time?

However, there is no rush to join the student union at the moment. What we should be anxious about right now is another thing, personal points!

After learning from Haruno about the importance of personal points, Hikigaya felt an increasingly serious points crisis. The situation of Class D was obvious to all. At this rate, it was unclear how many points would be left for distribution next month. No... it was very likely that it would even be zero!

"Sure enough, we still have to think of a solution from the school clubs."

Right now, Hikigaya could think of only this method to obtain personal points.

"But this is only a temporary solution, not a permanent one!"

Hikigaya scratched his head in annoyance. If he didn't solve the bad atmosphere in the class, his personal points would always lag behind others, or in other words... he would have to pay for the mistakes of other undisciplined students in the class and become a victim inexplicably!

When one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer. This is the collective!

Unfortunately... Class D currently only has damage, which is extremely unfair to students like Kigaya, Hirata, and Horikita who attend classes diligently and abide by the rules.

Hikigaya could already foresee how horrific the 'hell' scene would be one month from now. If things went wrong, it might even lead to the collapse of the class!

Although he wanted to respect other people's choices, now that his own interests were involved, Hikigaya decided to give it a try.

Chapter 21: Destroy it quickly

"There's no chance of that happening! Asshole!"

The next day at school, Hikigaya wanted to find an opportunity to pick up ** Tian and remind him about school matters, but he never expected that what stopped Hikigaya was not his ability to act, but... those beautiful girls surrounding him!

Whether on the way to school or after class, there are always many girls around Hirata, and Hikigaya has no chance to get close to him!

In just two days, Hirata Yosuke has already become the leader of Class D. With his sunny appearance and gentle personality, he naturally gained high praise among the girls.

Even among a group of boys who tend to repel each other, her helpful nature is appreciated by many boys, of course, this does not include the likes of the idiot duo.

This is enough to show that Yosuke Hirata is not a two-faced and double-standard man. He treats girls and boys equally.

"Damn it, instant filler!"

Hikigaya was speechless and said he wasn't envious at all!

Fortunately, these girls were not so nymphomaniac as to go to the bathroom with Hirata, so Hikigaya still found an opportunity to strike up a conversation with this sunny and warm-hearted man who was like central air conditioning. He mentioned things about school discipline and personal points intentionally or unintentionally, but the result made Hikigaya frown.

"Personal points? Hikigaya is worried about overspending on personal points? It's okay. I'm usually frugal and don't spend a lot. If you have any difficulties in this regard, you can ask me for help."

"Classroom discipline is indeed a problem. I have consulted the teacher, but there is no good solution at the moment. If other students have caused you trouble in class, I apologize to you on their behalf."

Wait...isn't this too much of a nice guy?!

And why do you have to apologize on behalf of others when they make mistakes?

Hikigaya was almost pissed off to death by Hirata. He was so handsome, but his brain shouldn't be so dull!

"Hirata, don't you think some things about this school are strange? They're overly generous with their class points and individual points. 10 yen per person per month—is that really possible? Is there something else going on? And the teachers' attitudes are truly questionable. Can they really achieve the advertised 100% admission and employment rates by giving students such permissive treatment?"

Hikigaya's words were very explicit, not even subtle hints. They clearly indicated that there was definitely something wrong with this school, but surprisingly, Hirata remained calm.

"Actually, I've noticed what you said, Hikigaya, and I've thought about it for a long time."

Hikigaya's face lit up with joy when he heard that. That's what I expected. If he can be a real person, he's not a fool!
