Su Wei stopped in his tracks, his gaze sweeping over the faint dark circles under Hirata's eyes. He slightly raised his chin, indicating that he had something to say quickly.
Hirata Yosuke took a deep breath, took out his phone from his pocket, opened his personal points interface, and showed the screen to Su Wei.
His personal account was displayed on the screen.
With over 200,000 points, it's a huge sum for Class D.
“You were in the classroom yesterday when the school sent out the compensation information. I’m sure you heard Matsushita and the others talking about it.”
Hirata gripped his phone tightly, his face grave.
“I think their concerns are not entirely unfounded. With the school offering such a temptation, the level of danger in the upcoming preliminary tests and formal exams will definitely increase exponentially.”
Su Wei looked at the string of numbers but didn't reach out to take it, directly interrupting him:
"So, you secretly gathered these points from those scared people in the class, wanting to pay me to protect them during the exam?"
Yosuke Hirata nodded, his eyes sincere:
"That's certainly the idea. Of course, I know this amount may be insignificant, but we can't offer much either. We just hope you can help within your capabilities. We won't demand anything of you."
"Take it back."
Su Wei shook his head and refused without hesitation:
“Hirata, you seem to have underestimated the value of you ‘interlopers’ in the black ball rules.”
"Under the weighted rules of the black ball, if the intruder survives, all eligible participants will receive one point; conversely, if the intruder dies, everyone will lose one point."
"In one round, it's like losing two points out of thin air. Not to mention the joint liability mechanism where consecutive negative scores will be wiped out."
Su Wei looked at Hirata, who looked bewildered, and continued:
"Even if you hadn't come to me with these points, Ichinose and the others had already agreed that we would prioritize protecting students who intrude during future exams. This has nothing to do with morality; it's purely driven by self-interest."
Moreover, what can you buy with a mere 200,000 points in a game where you could die at any moment?
This amount of money is less than what he could easily extort from Sakayanagi Arisu.
Although Class D was indeed dirt poor before, thanks to him and Horikita, the class score improved, and everyone had far more points than they had managed to scrape together.
Su Wei never doubted the inherent flaws in human nature.
If he accepts this money today, those classmates who were initially unwilling or reluctant to pay will undoubtedly have a legitimate reason to morally blackmail him in future dangerous situations—'I paid for it, why won't you save me?!'
Only a fool would do such a thankless and exhausting job as a nanny.
As for why he only accepted Karuizawa Megumi as his dog?
Firstly, he knew Karuizawa's insecure and power-hungry personality, making her easy to use; secondly... she was a beautiful girl.
Besides this, he could find no other reason to add any burden to himself.
Given the extraordinary students in Class D, it would be kind of him not to throw them directly into the exam hall.
Hirata Yosuke was a smart man. After hearing such blunt words, his Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he slowly withdrew his hand that was outstretched in mid-air.
He eventually accepted this explanation.
The two walked side by side into the dormitory building. Hirata Yosuke followed Su Wei's steps, and after a moment of silence, he spoke again, as if making conversation:
"By the way, I heard from Ayanokouji-kun... that you and he crashed the upperclassmen's exam the day before yesterday? Did nothing go wrong?"
"I'm a cautious person, so I stayed in the back the whole time, and naturally nothing happened."
Su Wei, without glancing to the side, casually replied, "As for Ayanokouji... judging from his expression when the exam ended, it didn't seem too good."
Hirata Yosuke took advantage of the situation and asked:
"Do you still remember the hidden boss at the end of the final level, and how the exam ended?"
Su Wei paused slightly, turning his head to glance at Hirata:
"What, you came here on Ayanokouji's orders to try and trick me into telling you something?"
"What's the point of hiding it? If he wants to know, just let him come and ask me directly."
"No," Hirata quickly shook his head.
"He only mentioned to me privately that he might have 'lost his life' in that chaotic incident. And he was certain that the hidden boss who could erase memories would reappear in the next special exam."
"So... he wants to volunteer to take today's exam."
Hirata sighed, "I'm a little worried about him..."
Looking at Hirata's worried, saintly appearance, Su Wei couldn't help but think that although he had lost his luck with women, Ayanokoji seemed to have a pretty good relationship with men!
Is this a case of things reaching their extreme and then reversing?
Not to mention Nagumo Masayuki, Hirata Yosuke cares about him so much... it's like a true friend in need is a friend indeed?
Thinking it over, Su Wei expressionlessly delivered the prepared statement:
"Probably because of the special abilities of the test takers, to be honest, I don't remember exactly what happened in the end."
"But since even Ayanokouji and his elite force, along with the student council president, couldn't handle it, and all that was left behind were the upperclassmen Kiryuin..."
"Logically speaking, it can only be that the senior student launched a sneak attack at the crucial moment and forcibly ended the exam."
