Even the option of 'spending points' to evade punishment is just one of many ways to avoid punishment, and it's just two of the many methods of 'legal violation'.
Besides these, there are other methods that don't even require spending any points!
For example, using surveillance to fabricate false evidence.
Through this incident, many of the freshmen in Class B of Grade 1 will realize that in this school, as long as you master the right methods or pay enough points, you can legally break the rules!
If Class 1B, which has only been in school for less than two months, can realize these things, then what about the second and third grades, which have been in school for more than a year?
As for the other first-grade classes, they should be here soon.
Once students discover that violators have successfully escaped punishment, they will realize that as long as they have certain methods or enough points, they can "legally break the rules," and everyone will feel insecure!
After all, even school rules cannot protect their personal safety, property safety, and dignity; in fact, the school rules themselves have become tools used by evil people to persecute them.
How can a school maintain good discipline when its students' personal safety, property safety, and dignity cannot be guaranteed?
Besides, students, either for self-protection or to gain benefits, will inevitably follow suit and study these crooked and unorthodox methods.
After all, it's much easier to learn bad habits than good ones.
Once a person abandons their bottom line, they gain greater 'power'.
In cases where moral standards are not high enough and self-control is insufficient, many people may even become addicted to this kind of crooked and unethical behavior.
As a result, no one will think about improving their own abilities, and the competition in the class will eventually become vicious.
Many people develop the habit of breaking the rules without hesitation, as long as they can bear the consequences and gain far more from it than the cost.
Discipline will deteriorate further.
Furthermore, if this continues, many students graduating from school may become hidden criminals who prefer to walk the line between law and reality!
Horikita Manabu said solemnly and firmly, "This cannot continue!"
After hearing Horikita's words, Sakayanagi Shigemori was somewhat stunned.
After a few seconds of silence, Sakayanagi Narumi pursed his lips and then said, "But what does this have to do with Bai Lan hitting someone?"
At this point, Sakayanagi Shigemori couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and shake his head, looking somewhat agitated. He said, "So what if he's fixing the bug? Why did he have to hit someone? Shouldn't he be upholding discipline? Isn't hitting someone a way of breaking the rules? And yet you say he's...upholding discipline?"
Horikita Manabu: "Don't you understand? This is Bai Lan's method to rectify school discipline!"
"Huh?" Sakayanagi Narimori looked puzzled. "You've confused me. Am I getting old? I feel like I can't keep up with you young people's thinking anymore. Why don't you explain it to me?"
"An explanation? To my shame..." At this point, Horikita Manabu, who usually had a stern face, suddenly showed an embarrassed expression.
Soon, Horikita Manabu mentally prepared himself and said, "The reason I can tell that this is Shirai-san's way of rectifying discipline is because I was once 'rectified' by him using similar methods."
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Sakayanagi Shigemori asked in surprise, "You were 'purged' by him?"
Have you done anything that requires 'repentance'?
"As the student council president of our school, you also violated the rules?"
Horikita Manabu: "After I first learned about the remarkable achievement of Class D in the first year being promoted to Class B a month after the start of the school year, I couldn't help but start investigating the matter."
After discovering that Bai Lan had almost single-handedly caused this incident, he couldn't help but become interested in it.
"interest?"
"To be precise, it's 'doubt'!"
"Suspect?"
"After all, he was initially assigned to Class D! It's not that I have any prejudice against Class D, but based on my understanding of how our school assigns students..."
As the student council president, I believe it is my responsibility to find out whether Bai Lan poses a threat to school order.
Therefore, I first conducted an investigation into him.
The survey results were not very good.
I don't think he's a settled person.
I think there's a high probability that he will become a destabilizing factor that could disrupt the normal order of the school!
As the student council president, in order to maintain the stability of campus order, I feel it is my responsibility to further understand what kind of person he really is.
Therefore, I took the opportunity to test him.
"How should we test the waters?"
"To test the waters."
"Huh?" Sakayanagi Shigemori asked, puzzled.
“I took the initiative and ambushed him. When his back was to me, I threw a punch at him.”
"Huh, what kind of 'attack' was that? The student council president actually hit someone? And it was a sneak attack!"
Sakayanagi Narimori was utterly astonished.
This student council president seems like an honest person, but... he's so unethical!
"and then?"
"I turned the tables and got beaten up by him."
"Oh?"
"Most importantly, even though he knew my identity at that time, and knew that I was the student council president, he was still not afraid and insisted on making me accept the punishment I deserved."
In addition, when I ambushed him, I deliberately chose a place that was not visible to the surveillance cameras.
Yes, I was trying to exploit a loophole in the school's system.
However, when he was punishing me, he deliberately kicked me into the surveillance camera's view, and into the area with the best camera angle!
Also, before that, I was disciplining my younger sister. Bai Lan thought I was bullying a classmate and deliberately came up to check. The reason he knew I was the student council president was because my sister revealed it to stop him from hitting me.
From this, I concluded that he was a person with a strong sense of justice, and that he deeply disliked these 'loopholes' that could provide opportunities for malicious individuals to persecute others.
"I already have a general idea of what you're trying to say. You've laid enough groundwork. Why don't you just get to the conclusion?"
"Okay, I'll just give you the result."
In my opinion, Bai Lan did this for four main reasons:
First, make up for the punishment!
Nan Yun and Yonekura avoided punishment by exploiting loopholes in the school rules, while Bai Lan wanted to use this method to make amends for their punishment.
Second, deterrence!
He wanted to use their own methods against them, to fight violence with violence, and to establish a deterrent effect.
Let others know that if anyone dares to exploit loopholes in the rules to persecute classmates and escape punishment for their wrongdoings, then we will take action and exploit the same loopholes to subject those who evade punishment to a punishment even more severe than that imposed by the school rules!
The above two points are aimed at those who violate the rules.
In this way, once Bai Lan achieves her goal...
If anyone dares to try anything wrong or exploit loopholes in the rules, they'll have to think carefully about how to face Bai Lan's punishment.
Third, a warning!
Bai Lan's high-profile assault was intended to draw the attention of the entire school, to make the school and students see the terrible nature of these loopholes and the dangers of students privately possessing large amounts of points, to force the school to address the loopholes, and at the same time to raise students' awareness.
This rule applies to schools and students protected by school rules.
Fourth, balance!
This one is about class competition.
Bai Lan has 20 million points, which will greatly affect the competitive environment for first-year students.
He must have realized this, so he planned to use the 20 million that had damaged the competitive environment to exempt students from expulsion, thus wasting it on something that was almost meaningless to the class competition.
In fact, it's quite possible that he never intended to spend the points he got from Nan Yun on the class competition. He thought that Nan Yun asking for so many points was just part of the 'punishment' for Nan Yun and the others! It was a 'supplement' to the first 'punishment'!
Therefore, Bai Lan was indeed upholding discipline.
He wasn't just upholding discipline; he was saving the school!
"But he's seriously violating school rules!"
"But ultimately, school rules are meant to maintain school order, not just to be followed."
The school's current rules are clearly ineffective in maintaining order. As can be seen from the problems mentioned earlier, the current rules are full of loopholes and will instead cause major problems with the school's order.
When school rules fail to maintain order, it is appropriate to take some unconventional measures.
Moreover, Bai Lan did follow the school rules!
Wasn't he prepared to pay up points?
Paying points to avoid punishment is part of the school rules, isn't it?
Therefore, Bai Lan did not violate any rules.
If you think he has violated the rules.
"Alright, please amend the school rules afterwards to prohibit similar behavior!"
Sakayanagi Chengmori: "..."
157. Bai Lan has never hit us! It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding!
"Bai Lan did not violate any rules."
If you think he has violated the rules.
"Alright, please amend the school rules afterwards to prohibit similar behavior!"
Horikita Manabu said this.
After hearing Horikita Manabu's words, Sakayanagi Shigemori couldn't help but ask, "How can you be so sure that his purpose is really so 'righteous'? Do you really believe him that much?"
Horikita Manabu's answer was: "I chose him, and I am willing to believe in him."
In reality, my trust is not cheap.
He once made a pact with me: if law enforcement officers break the law, their crimes will be punished even more severely!
I believe his promise is enough to earn my trust.
Because this was his promise to me, and also the 'handle' he gave me.
