People at the practical education center only want to drop out.

Combined again:

1. Bai Lan had previously saved Karuizawa from the crisis of being expelled from school due to being framed, so she was kind to Karuizawa.

2. Bai Lan is beautiful, tall, has good grades, and is exceptionally healthy. She seems like the perfect partner no matter how you look at it.

Sato and Matsushita became increasingly certain of this answer.

Sato and Matsushita were worried that if they helped Karuizawa deny her relationship with Shirai today, they might become an obstacle between them if they ever decided to get together.

If Karuizawa, that stubborn tsundere, is too proud to be openly with Bai Lan, or even secretly, then that would be too frustrating.

With this in mind, Sato and Matsushita secretly agreed that, so that their sisters wouldn't regret it in the future, they absolutely couldn't help Karuizawa deny her relationship with Shirai today!

As for why Kushida and Horikita helped Karuizawa, it was mainly because of Shirai.

Horikita was hired by Bai Lan as a shield. As a shield, she naturally couldn't let other girls have rumors with Bai Lan or form a couple with her, as she felt that this would cause trouble for Bai Lan.

Therefore, out of duty, she needed to stop all of this.

This is her job.

As for Kushida...

Kushida could tell that Shirai didn't have any romantic feelings for Karuizawa, but at the same time, he could also tell that Karuizawa seemed to have feelings for Shirai.

If Bai Lan has feelings for Karuizawa, she naturally wouldn't dare to make any underhanded moves. As Bai Lan's loyal disciple, she would do everything in her power to help Bai Lan win over Karuizawa and make Karuizawa interested in Bai Lan.

But since Bai Lan doesn't mean it that way, then it won't work.

Kushida would do the opposite, preventing Shiran from developing feelings for Karuizawa and preventing Karuizawa from bothering Shiran.

After all, if Bai Lan really finds a girlfriend, then she will definitely have to keep her distance from Kushida in the future.

As a result, Kushida could no longer invite Shirai out to practice (or rather, spar) with her.

This is not in Kushida's interest.

Therefore, Kushida intends to help Karuizawa deny her relationship with Shirai, but due to the character's personality, Kushida cannot help too much.

At the same time, while Kushida was helping Karuizawa fight against Ike and the others, she also inadvertently hinted to Karuizawa not to "have any illusions," which is why she spoke in a somewhat sarcastic tone.

With only Horikita and Kushida speaking up for Karuizawa, and Kushida not being able to exert his full strength, while all the boys except Hirata were "working together," the scene that Shirai saw—Karuizawa being crushed by one side—occurred.

However, just when Chi felt the situation was very favorable and the advantage was in his hands.

Bai Lan has appeared!

With just a few strange movements, a few steps, a few words, and a quick glance around, Bai Lan successfully ruined the situation that Chi had worked so hard to create in less than a minute.

In less than a minute, Chi's emotions went from extremely high to extremely terrified.

The teammates he had painstakingly recruited turned out to be cowards faster than the next. If he hadn't reacted quickly and retreated in time, he might have been the first one caught by Bai Lan.

Although in the end, he was still noticed by Bai Lan due to the betrayal of the "traitor".

The moment Bai Lan "called out" him, Chi found that all his previous jealousy towards Bai Lan, resentment towards Karuizawa, and greed for points had vanished, leaving only fear, and he instantly "woke up".

Chi Sheng was afraid that Bai Lan would beat him up in public, in front of so many classmates, just like she had beaten up Nan Yun and the others.

Bai Lan beat up the student council vice president and a girl, so why wouldn't she dare to beat you up?

At that time, he will not only suffer, but also lose face.

It was a physical and mental blow.

This is unacceptable to Chi.

In that case, how can he hold his head high in the future?

It's important to know that there's often a tacit "custom" in schools in this country.

In a class, if someone is "bullied" but does not retaliate to a sufficient degree in a timely manner...

Then this person will fall to the bottom of the class. At this point, bullying this person will become a kind of "correctness" in the regular class. This person will continue to suffer various forms of bullying in the future until they leave the school!

However, it is clear that Chi has no chance of successfully retaliating against Bai Lan!

At that moment, Chi instantly regained consciousness.

Therefore, after being called out by Bai Lan, Chi didn't dare to continue insisting on the relationship between Bai Lan and Karuizawa as originally planned. Instead, he trembled and called it "ordinary gossip among high school students," and "certain" became "suspected."

All his efforts were simply to avoid getting beaten up, becoming the lowest in the class, and being someone everyone could bully.

This is the result of trying to use tricks and schemes when faced with absolute power.

After hearing Chi's words, Bai Lan felt very disappointed, but he did not dwell on the matter any further.

Compared to the pond, Bai Lan was more "interested" in Karuizawa.

"What are you doing standing outside my room?" Bai Lan couldn't help but ask Qing Jingze.

Bai Lan asked this question.

I was mainly just curious.

After all, Bai Lan planned to quietly pack her things after dropping out of school and leave before anyone could react or try to persuade her to stay.

If Bai Lan really succeeds in dropping out of school today, Karuizawa's actions today will definitely bring him a lot of trouble.

What if they can actually raise 20 million to help him get it waived?

Given his dislike of owing people, wouldn't he have to repay a favor worth over 20 million if he wanted to drop out of school?

As a result, Bai Lan was unable to drop out of school or even leave the school for a long time in order to pay off her debts, which was extremely difficult!

Therefore, he tried to understand Karuizawa's thought process and then find a solution to prevent such a thing from happening again.

However, Bai Lan regretted it as soon as she asked the question.

Because he knew that in front of so many people, Karuizawa wouldn't tell him the truth in order to maintain a facade.

Sure enough, Karuizawa patted his rather well-built chest and said in a tone as if he had been in the underworld, "Of course, it's for 'righteousness'!"

175. Bai Lan: I am not a champion of justice! Beating people up is just my "personal hobby"!

"Of course, it's for 'benevolence and righteousness'!"

Karuizawa patted his chest and said, "Your beating up someone helped me get revenge."

Of course I should thank you in person!

As for calling people back to express gratitude, that would seem insincere, so I chose to wait at the door.

No matter what punishment you receive, I will stand by you through thick and thin!

This is 'benevolence and righteousness'!

The truth is that Karuizawa panicked and was terrified after realizing that Shirai might be expelled from school.

Although she had great faith in Bai Lan's abilities and felt that Bai Lan would not put herself in danger, and Bai Lan had also said that "everything is under control" and seemed very confident, she still felt uneasy.

Unlike others.

While Kushida and Horikita believed in Shirai's abilities, they also felt confident that even without Shirai's help, she could continue to stay at the school with peace of mind.

Even the most dangerous Kushida.

With Bai Lan's help, she has now had ample "communication" with Horikita and developed a "good" relationship through these exchanges. She has also gained some understanding of Horikita's personality during these exchanges, realizing that Horikita has no recollection of her junior high school classmate Kushida, let alone Kushida's dark past.

With the "Dark Friendship Method" taught by Shirai, Kushida is now becoming increasingly adept at using his dark side to unleash his charm.

Her persona has gradually evolved from "little angel" to "fallen angel".

While maintaining the charm and approachability of an angel, it can also add the charm and "seduction" from the dark side.

Just like today, Kushida dared to brazenly take sides when trying to mediate, and she even spoke sarcastically to Karuizawa.

However, those around them seemed unsurprised by it.

This is something she couldn't do in the past.

At the current rate of evolution.

Kushida felt that even when the new students enrolled next year, she probably wouldn't have any unacceptable consequences from her dark past being exposed.

By then, even if Kushida discovers that there are junior students from the same junior high school as her among the new students, she won't be too anxious about it.

Under such circumstances, Horikita and Kushida even had the energy to pursue spiritual goals, such as gaining their brother's approval and making friends with everyone.

Therefore, since Horikita and Kushida believed in Shirai's abilities and received her assurances, they did not feel any anxiety about it.

Karuizawa, on the other hand, felt that she had already exhausted all her energy just by staying at this school.

In her view, once Bai Lan leaves the school, no one will protect her. Without Bai Lan's protection, she will become very dangerous and will soon be bullied to the point that it will be difficult for her to stay in the school.

Although she has mastered a certain ability to protect herself and is no longer so easily bullied, she is still not used to being "strong". If Bai Lan were to suddenly leave, she would still lack the confidence to face life alone.

Seeking a sense of security, he wanted to stay by Bai Lan's side and confirm that Bai Lan was still in this school.

Although Bai Lan did not respond after she knocked on the door for a long time, she was basically certain that Bai Lan was not in the room.

But when she couldn't reach Bai Lan by phone or get a reply to her messages, and couldn't find Bai Lan no matter what she did, she could only subconsciously find the place she thought was closest to Bai Lan, which was the door of Bai Lan's room. Then she leaned against the door frame of the door that Bai Lan often came and went from, and quietly waited for Bai Lan to appear.

Well, even in the worst-case scenario, if Bai Lan really drops out of school, he'll still come back to pack his bags, won't he?

Looking at Karuizawa's silly face, Bai Lan couldn't bear to look at her and planned to ask her the truth on her phone later.

Just then, someone nearby seemed to have been reminded of something and suddenly spoke up: "That's right! Punishment! Was Bai punished?"

Upon hearing this, many people's eyes lit up, and they all turned to Bai Lan with questioning looks.

But at the same time, some people hesitated to speak.

Hirata was about to say something.

However, at this moment, Bai Lan's top assistant, Horikita, spoke up first, asking the man, "Didn't the school send out a message? Don't you even look at it? What are cell phones for? To crack walnuts?"

In fact, the arbitration session ended before 11 a.m.

Thanks to Tachibana Akane's hard work, the punishment notice for Bai Lan, Nan Yun, and others was released not long after the arbitration meeting ended. It was posted on the homepage of the school's academic affairs system, and even on the bulletin board at the bottom of the teaching building.

However, it is clear that most of the students in the original Class D did not have the habit of checking announcements to learn about the latest school information.

"what?"

"Have it?"

Questions arose one after another.
