Practical teaching, all I want is your reward.

Nan Yunya pondered for a moment: "Actually, I'm very concerned about why Horikita-senpai agreed to be his guarantor. Logically speaking, Horikita-senpai shouldn't have violated the school's rules."

“Perhaps Horikita-senpai wants to cultivate a helper as soon as possible.” Tonkawa Sousuke hesitated and spoke tactfully, because it was common knowledge that Nagumo Masa wanted to challenge Horikita Manabu.

Furthermore, it is common knowledge that Horikita Manabu dislikes Nagumo Masaru.

Horikita Manabu's selection of Suzuki Toru from the first-year students and his appointment of him as vice president clearly indicated that he was grooming a successor.

“I don’t think things are that simple.” Nan Yunya suddenly smiled. “But never mind, if this is Suzuki’s level, then it can only be said that Horikita-senpai entrusted the wrong person.”

He admitted that buying personal points with cash was a good strategy, but that was all he could do.

"Just in case, let's report this to the school."

No matter what Suzuki Tetsu is thinking, a single report can crush all his ideas.

To be honest, Nagumo Masaru suddenly felt a little bored. If it weren't for Suzuki Tetsu's accidental mistake, he probably would have already won over Ichinose Honami.

Tsk, it's such a pity to think about it.

It doesn't matter. Even if Horikita Manabu thinks highly of Suzuki Toru, he's still just a clown in the end.

Horikita Manabu was the only opponent he truly valued.

Chapter Fifty, Second Round

Soon, Horikita Manabu approached Suzuki Toru.

"The school already knows about your plan to exchange for personal points. Since you haven't started trading yet, this is just a warning."

In the student council office, Suzuki Toru sat obediently opposite Horikita Manabu, while Tachibana Akane looked on with schadenfreude.

"Do you want to continue?" Horikita asked.

“Of course we’ll continue. Nagumo should think I’m not good enough by now, so we can’t let him down.” Suzuki Tetsu took out a few badges and placed them on the table. “Next is the second round. Before he can react, let’s make him fall into the trap.”

"What is this?" Tachibana Akane looked at the badge on the table with curiosity. It looked delicate and small, and she liked it a little.

The premium badge was trash he got a long time ago; its only effect was making him unable to resist abstaining from sex.

"Does the senior like it?" Suzuki Tetsu blinked. "One badge is worth four million personal points."

Akane's eyes widened in disbelief: "What badge is worth four million personal points? Are you robbing me?!"

"What if I spend another two million yen to buy back the badge?" Suzuki Toru smiled slightly.

Akane suddenly realized she couldn't understand him. She spent four million personal points to buy his badge, and he wanted to spend two million yen to buy back her badge. What was going on?

Horikita Manabu said thoughtfully, "I see. This way, we can indeed bypass the school's rules, but there's no guarantee that the school won't continue to get involved."

The whole process is actually quite simple; Suzuki Toru simply added an intermediary to the process of trading individual points.

Neither party directly exchanged personal points or yen; instead, the item used in the transaction was this badge, thus circumventing the school's rule prohibiting the buying and selling of personal points.

In some games, where gambling and lotteries are prohibited by law, these games cleverly circumvent the law by requiring players to purchase special game items before they can participate in the lottery.

The same applies to arcade game tokens; both the government and the public are well aware of this.

This process may seem simple, but it actually reduces a lot of risk, allowing schools to go from strictly prohibiting something once they discover it to hesitating and unsure whether to take action.

However, despite this, risks still exist.

After all, the essence of the matter is still the buying and selling of personal points, and if the school intervenes, it is very likely that the transaction will be interrupted.

Suzuki Toru had certainly thought about these things.

"So I need the president's help. You will be responsible for selling this badge, and I will be responsible for buying back the other party's badge. The parties involved in the transaction are different, so I don't think the school can say anything."

Horikita Manabu had to re-examine the man in front of him. He said that the man had violated the rules, but he had cleverly avoided the scope of the rules. He said that the man had not violated the rules, but he really had.

Even Horikita Manabu was speechless, and his evaluation of him rose to an even higher level. He was bold yet meticulous, and particularly adept at exploiting loopholes in the rules.

Thinking of this, Horikita Manabu sighed silently. If only his silly little sister had half of Suzuki Tetsu's abilities, how wonderful that would be.

“You…” Akane stammered, unsure what to say for a moment, “Did you often break the law in the past?”

Suzuki Toru's face darkened, and he said irritably, "If I broke the law, would I still be sitting here chatting with you?"

Ju Qian blushed and quickly shook her head, saying, "That's not what I meant. I just feel like your brain is naturally suited to making a living in the gray area!"

Nonsense, if he weren't a little smarter, how could he have made his idols reach their peak right from the start?

At the time, Suzuki Toru was so busy with publicity and public relations that he almost lost all his hair, but someone still spread rumors that he was pressing remote controls for the idols from the audience.

“There shouldn’t be any problem with this approach.” Horikita Manabu pondered for a moment. “To be honest, I’m not entirely sure about the school’s stance either, but the biggest question is whether you actually have the ability to pay the yen, Suzuki?”

If you are unable to pay, it will immediately become a scam.

"Don't worry, I won't do things I can't do," Suzuki Toru said. "Kouenji from Class 1-D is the heir to a zaibatsu, and I want to have a talk with him."

The heir to a chaebol?

Horikita Manabu paused for a moment, then realized what he meant and nodded: "As for the zaibatsu, they certainly have the ability to help you pay the yen. How can you guarantee that they will help you?"

“He can’t directly exchange for personal points, and if we use this method, he lacks credibility.” Suzuki Tetsu was getting to know the chairman’s personality better and better; he was cautious, careful, and very serious.

Transactions involving large sums of cash are often daunting because the more complicated the process, the more people hesitate and abandon the transaction halfway through.

Conversely, the simpler the trading process, the easier it is to act impulsively, leaving no time for hesitation, which actually leads to a higher success rate.

After thinking it over, Horikita Manabu decided to trust Suzuki Toru.

"Okay, I'll help you this time."

Seeing this, Toru Suzuki placed two more contracts on the table and introduced them, saying, "One is a contract about personal points, and the other is a contract about yen. You can take a look at them first, Chairman."

Horikita Manabu picked up the contract concerning Japanese yen, while Tachibana Akane curiously peered over.

1. On a completely voluntary basis, Party A purchases a badge from Party B, the badge being valued at two million yen;

2. Party A will pay Party B a lump sum of two million yen upon graduation, with bank transfer being the preferred payment method;

3. In the event of any unforeseen circumstances, including the school's premature cessation of the program or one party's withdrawal from the program, each party shall bear its own responsibility, and the contract shall be automatically void.

4. If Party A breaches the contract without cause, Party A shall pay Party B a penalty equal to three times the amount of the breach, or Party B may designate any compensation method of corresponding value.

5. If Party B breaches the contract without cause, Party B shall compensate Party A in the same form and content as the previous clause.

6. This contract shall take effect immediately upon signing by both parties and shall remain in effect until Party A fulfills its commitments.

……

After reading the contents, Horikita Manabu remained silent for a moment.

"Hey, why should we each take responsibility? It sounds terrible!" Tachibana Akane couldn't help but complain, as if everyone was fleeing for their lives when disaster struck.

“These kinds of things are inherently risky.” Suzuki Toru looked at his senior with a sense of helplessness.

Seemingly noticing his gaze, Tachibana Akane snorted softly, then realized something was off. Why was he looking at her like she was an idiot?

Horikita Manabu then looked at another contract, which was not much different in content, except for a few changes, such as the fact that the first party had to pay four million personal points within 12 hours.

"Has anything gone wrong?" Suzuki Toru asked with a smile.

Horikita Manabu silently pointed to a certain place on the contract, then calmly asked, "Did you do it on purpose, or accidentally?"

"How could you set a trap for Nagumo without doing it on purpose?" Suzuki Tetsu blinked.

"Are you sure?"

"We're about 80% sure, but that's on the condition that someone is willing to cooperate with us."

As for this person, Toru Suzuki has already found one.

Chapter 51 Your Little Tricks Are Interesting

When Suzuki Toru saw Koenji Rokusuke, the latter was chatting with several girls in a coffee shop.

"Kouenji-kun, open your mouth~"

A girl deliberately moved close to Rokusuke Koenji, stuck some pastries into his mouth with a fork, and fed them to him with a smile. Rokusuke Koenji acted as if it were his due and accepted everything.

"Hey, Koenji-kun, you should try mine too!"

"How cunning! It tastes delicious just as good!"

These girls weren't exactly vying for attention; they were completely focused on pleasing Koenji Rokusuke.

Is this the kind of leisure that chaebol heirs have?

Suzuki Tetsu could also see the envious looks in the eyes of many boys around him, who wished they could take his place.

However, he didn't care either.

"Kouenji-kun, I'm sorry to disturb your enjoyment, but your scheme has been exposed." Suzuki Toru walked up to Koenji Rokusuke and introduced himself in front of him, "Nice to meet you. I am Suzuki Toru from Class 1-A, and I am currently the vice president of the student council."

The girls in Koenji Rokusuke's group were stunned. What did he mean by his secret being exposed?

Since student council members came to visit in person, could it be that they were involved in some violation of school rules?

Thinking of this, their expressions changed, and they separated slightly.

"Tsk, I don't remember doing anything. Unless it's something important, don't disturb my enjoyment, Suzuki Boy." Koenji Rokusuke leaned back in his comfortable sofa, showing no sign of panic, but rather some displeasure at Suzuki Toru's interruption.

Suzuki Toru looked at the girls beside him and said in an extremely gentle voice, "Excuse me, seniors, could I borrow Koenji for a moment?"

Faced with the handsome smile, the girls blushed slightly and stood up from their seats with their belongings.

Koenji Rokusuke frowned; he didn't like sitting with a man.

"Don't rush, I just want to talk to you." Suzuki Tetsu ignored his reaction and sat down next to him without hesitation. "To be honest, even I didn't think of such a thing when the school year started, that you were able to come up with a way to promote students at the beginning of the semester."

Koenji Rokusuke said calmly, "So that's what it is. I haven't decided yet whether or not to take this approach."

"It's not a matter of whether you want to or not, but rather that you can't do it, right?" Suzuki Tetsu kindly corrected him.

Koenji Rokusuke was silent for a moment: "There's no need to force it. Whether I'm in Class D or Class A, it makes no difference to me."

As the heir to the Koenji Zaibatsu, his starting point is an end point that most people can't even imagine in their entire lives, and he doesn't care about the rights and interests of Class A at all.

"Even so, it must be annoying not to have any personal points, right?" Suzuki Tetsu continued. "Someone like you wouldn't voluntarily downgrade your spending. Are you planning to live off women?"

Upon first seeing the scene, Suzuki Toru guessed that Koenji Rokusuke was likely being kept by a group of upperclassmen.
