Real teaching, but diary flow

"Then deduct it."

She wasn't actually summoned by Asakusa Toru. The only people Asakusa Toru needed to negotiate and persuade were Ryuen Sho and Kamuro Masumi. Kushida Kikyo didn't have any obligation to get involved.

After all, in a sense, ever since they extorted money from the school by taking advantage of Sakura's incident, they had already become a so-called 'community of shared interests'.

Putting aside the physical connection and emotions, even the trust bound together by the huge sum of money in the account was enough for him to remove Kikyo Kushida from the scope of 'persuasion'.

"Whether the score is negative or not is irrelevant." Long Yuanxiang waved his hand: "I will not comment on your tactics and strategies. Since you intend to do this, take it as a sign of your sincerity in cooperating. I will 'completely comply' with your decision in this exam."

"But you have to answer a few of my questions."

Although I said before that if they wanted to guard against the school, they shouldn't have 'integrated' together so openly and blatantly.

But since Asakusa Tetsu had taken the initiative to approach him, and given that this exam clearly required some 'cooperation,' Ryuen Sho thought it best to just go along with it.

"Speak," Asakusa Tetsu said, spreading his hands.

With a thud, Long Yuanxiang jumped off the table, pacing back and forth as he spoke:

"First and foremost, this is the most important and crucial point."

"How do you want to win?" He pointed out the problem: "Not the result, but the means."

“I can give you the list of students receiving preferential treatment in Class C. I probably don’t need to worry about Class A either, as you should have already collected the list information by now.”

“But…” he said, turning his head to look at Masumi Kamuro by the door and Kikyo Kushida by the bedside: “Class B and Class D… I have my doubts about that.”

Long Yuanxiang didn't have any particular trust in either of them.

Trust in Toru Asakusa is based on the premise that they have communicated, confronted each other, and cooperated.

But Kamuro Masumi was just a guide dog for Sakayanagi Arisu; even Sakayanagi Arisu himself didn't come over, so he didn't believe Kamuro Masumi could make any decisions.

He couldn't bear the thought of being betrayed by Class B after all the planning.

Needless to say, Kikyo Kushida is another example.

Long Yuanxiang never believed in such a foolish evaluation as "everyone's little angel." Beneath all the friendliness lay a deep darkness that was difficult to detect with the naked eye.

Kikyo Kushida is like that, and Honami Ichinose must be like that too.

The doubts surrounding Kikyo Kushida herself are one aspect, but the doubts surrounding Class D are another.

The people in Class D are the dumbest. You can believe that they might accidentally, carelessly, or out of their minds, reveal their privileged status, or you can believe that they might hide it from their classmates because of their greed to keep 500,000 points all to themselves.

Besides these two points of contention, there are also bigger problems.

How can you guarantee they will act according to your wishes?

The rules for the special exam clearly state that the names of the students in this group can only be submitted within this group, and the school will not accept answers sent by students in other groups.

Asakusa Tetsu wanted to achieve the transfer of points.

In other words, there are two possibilities.

One is the situation of those receiving preferential treatment in Class D.

There's no need to worry about this. Just find a way to confirm the identity of the person receiving the preferential treatment, and then have the students in the same group who want to get these class points send their answers to the school. This will easily result in a third outcome.

But the other one is hard to say.

If the student with preferential treatment is not in Class D, then to transfer the class points from Class D, the students in Class D would obviously have to submit incorrect answers.

How to do?

If you openly tell someone that you want to transfer their class points, who would be willing to do that?

Kikyo Kushida is just a little angel, not a class dictator like him; her affability cannot become her rule.

Yes, that's right, she can pretend to reveal a name to her classmate and identify the other person as the one receiving preferential treatment.

But what then?

The students in Class D submitted the wrong names, and the school then announced the third failure.

Do you think her identity as Kikyo Kushida will be questioned?

Ryuen Sho couldn't think of any reason why Kushida Kikyo would sacrifice her credibility and the trust she had in the students of Class D to help them complete this transfer of class points.

Not to mention the special exams that will be held in the distant future, and the one after that, with absolutely no idea what they will be like.

In his opinion, he should definitely focus on the immediate benefits.

The more Long Yuanxiang thought about it, the more he felt there was a problem.

If Asakusa Tetsu can provide a reasonable explanation, he can comply.

But if he can't, he has to question it and try to fight for the class's interests in his own way.

“You’re right.” Asakusa Tetsu nodded slightly. “That’s why I didn’t just notify you to carry it out unilaterally. Instead, I brought you here for a meeting to resolve the only problem.”

Masumi Kamuro finally couldn't hold back any longer and spoke up:

"only?"

No, Longyuan pointed out more than one problem, so how can it be the only one?

She felt that her brain wasn't quite up to par, or rather, her brain had never really been up to par.

I really don't know why Sakayanagi wanted her to come alone.

When Kamuro Masumi received the message from Asakusa Toru, she simply relayed it to Sakayanagi Arisu, who was still looking rather listless and lifeless.

I thought the other party would squint their eyes and chuckle as usual, then raise their neck and personally lead the expedition.

To everyone's surprise, the other person simply propped their head up with one hand and casually waved their hand.

"You can go, make your own decision," she said.

Masumi Kamuro couldn't hold back any longer.

I?

ha?

Should I make the decision?

They're already discussing what outcome to choose to end the exam and divide the rewards. Even if I were in their shoes, there's nothing I could do!

This is utterly ridiculous.

However, despite cursing in her heart, Kamuro Masumi couldn't refute Sakayanagi Arisu's words.

So in the end, she obediently came over.

Of course, she had some reservations about the meeting being held in a girl's room, but seeing Ibuki Mio and Kushida Kikyo present, she wasn't particularly worried.

To be fair, Masumi Kamuro is quite confident in her athletic abilities.

It can't compare to that guy who cruises across a deserted island at the speed of light.

If it were just Ryuen, I would definitely be worried, but with Asakusa Tetsu added to the mix... I feel more at ease.

cough.

It's not that she's obsessed with looks... she might be a little bit obsessed with looks, but the sense of security she feels compared to Ryuen Sho and Asakusa Tetsu is worlds apart.

Long Yuanxiang is a scumbag; no girl wouldn't be worried if she were in the same room with him.

But Asakusa Tetsu is different.

He's handsome, so even if he does something to benefit the girl, she's the one who gets the advantage.

Yes, that's how realistic it is.

In short, since Sakayanagi has dumped the responsibility on her, no matter how unwilling she is, she has to find out the truth and then go back to Sakayanagi Arisu to make a new decision.

Just kidding, of course she wouldn't actually listen and make decisions on her own here.

Who does she think she is?

"Ah, the only problem is how to get the D-class students in the groups of those who are not part of D-class to obediently hand over their class points." Asakusa Tetsu nodded decisively: "Anyway, let's look at the list first."

As he spoke, Asakusa Tetsu pulled out a printed list that Ichinose Honami had prepared for him.

The complete list of the twelve groups.

"To put it bluntly, I basically know the pattern schools use to select privileged students," he said. "It's stupid, but also very simple, so simple that once you know it, you'll wonder if the schools didn't even use their brains."

"There is no need to worry about whether the privileged students in Class D will hide."

Asakusa Tetsu raised his personal terminal and casually sent a few messages.

The next moment, everyone's personal terminals began to vibrate.

[The Horse Group's exam is over. Horse Group students do not need to take any further exams. Please be careful and do not disturb other students.]

"Consider it evidence. I just finished the special exam for the Horse Group. The Horse Group's special student is Nanbofu from Class D."

Asakusa Tetsu raised his personal terminal and made this announcement.

Long Yuanxiang: "?!"

Ibuki Mio: "?!"

Masumi Kamuro: "?!"

Except for Kikyo Kushida, who showed an expression of complete astonishment, the other three all wore expressions of surprise.

Ryuen Sho could understand that Asakusa Toru could see through the school's thinking and analyze the selection pattern of the privileged.

But, but, isn't this too fast?

It's only 10 o'clock!

The exam rules were announced yesterday, and the list of students eligible for preferential treatment was only confirmed this morning. He even took the time to collect everyone's phones at 8:00 AM to verify the list of students eligible for preferential treatment in each class.

In less than two hours, he had already identified all the recipients of preferential treatment.

That's really... way too much.

Just as outrageous as the first day of school, so outrageous that it made one wonder if he didn't need to take the exam at all, and could just glance at the rules and know how to play.

But this might just be the story of Toru Asakusa.

At least in Long Yuanxiang's ears, the name already carried that much weight.

Ryuen Sho was surprised but then understood, but Kamuro Masumi couldn't comprehend it at all.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Kikyo Kushida beside her.

The student who was reported to receive preferential treatment was from Class D. Is it possible that the student told Kikyo Kushida about it, and Kikyo Kushida then leaked the name to Toru Asakusa?

"It wasn't me who said that~" Kikyo Kushida shook her head with a smile: "I haven't received a single message from any other classmates yet."

"Wow, it seems like they're really not trusted at all."

She sighed and shook her head, but seemed to show no regret whatsoever.

That's how Class D is; everyone has different thoughts, and the moment they receive a text message, they have a different idea.

Even if it were to tell her about her privileged status, she would hesitate and agonize over it before considering telling someone she trusts.

For them, the class is always secondary.

Masumi Kamuro: "???"

Didn't you reveal it?

Kikyo Kushida had no reason to lie under these circumstances, so—

Kamuro Masumi turned her head and looked directly at Asakusa Tetsu.

Is this guy really that terrifying?!

"Anyway, do you believe me now? If you need me to prove myself again, I'll end this one."

Asakusa Tetsu casually uttered some rather terrifying words.

Long Yuanxiang: "......"

After a moment of silence, Long Yuanxiang finally spoke:

"Tell me the name of one of the students in our class who is receiving preferential treatment via private message."

He had already completely believed it, but he still needed to give the others an explanation.

So, Asakusa Tetsu simply switched to Ryuen Sho's chat box.
