I just want your reward.

Tomoya Mashima looked around the classroom, feeling somewhat surprised. It seemed that the failure in the sports festival did not make Class A depressed, but instead aroused their competitive spirit.

"You guys discuss it on your own. You have to tell me the class you are going to be nominated for the day before the quiz, otherwise the school will randomly nominate a class for you."

After saying that, Tomoya Mashima left the classroom, leaving the class meeting to the students for discussion.

Chapter 338 Class A's Plan

The discussion did not last long and a preliminary consensus was quickly reached.

The most stable approach is to nominate Class C, and then accept nominations from outside Class D. This will maximize the interests of Class A. It would be best if Class A nominates each other with Class C, so that the outcome can be determined in one fell swoop.

The problem, however, is that there is no way to ensure that the entire process will go smoothly.

"You don't have to worry about Class C." When everything seemed settled, Sakayanagi Arisu's voice passed through everyone's ears like a clear spring, "Class C is 522 points, and Class B is 966 points. Compared to the former, Class B is obviously closer to us. I can't understand your thoughts."

"If we can snatch 100 points from Class C, it will also allow us to surpass Class B by 100 points. Is there anything hard to understand?" Deba Shinji frowned slightly. He understood what Sakayanagi Arisu meant, but attacking Class C was also equivalent to attacking Class B.

"In this case, the only enemy Class B faces is Class D. Do you think Class B will lose to Class D?" Arisu Sakayanagi's tone was quite calm, his expression indifferent.

Shinji Deba hesitated. He certainly didn't think that Class B would lose to Class D. It's just that Class D——

"What does it matter? The trash in Class D have no points, so if Class B wins it's the same as not winning." Totsuka Yahiko disagreed. His words were also the consensus of Deba Shinji and many other students.

"Mashima-sensei said that it is allowed for Class D to be in debt, which means that they are very likely to owe Class B 100 points." Sakayanagi Arisu sighed softly, "In this case, what is the difference between us and Class B?"

The only difference is that Class A has increased by 100 points, while Class B has not increased yet, but the points actually increased by both sides are the same.

In other words, the distance between Class A and Class B has not changed at all.

Soon, some students in the class also realized this.

"Sakayanagi-san, do you think Class D is capable of paying back 100 points?"

"Class D also had zero scores at the beginning of the school year. By the summer vacation, didn't they get rid of the zero score status?"

"Is it possible for Class D to pay off their debt before the end of this school year?"

"Haha, I believe they have the ability to pay off their debts."

Kōhei Katsuragi took a deep breath. In fact, he really liked Deba Shinji's idea because it was a very sound plan and the academic ability of Class C could not possibly surpass that of Class A.

"I think both Sakayanagi-san and Deba-kun's ideas have merit. First of all, Deba-kun's plan to single out Class C is good for us, but our only enemy right now is Class B. This plan is not enough to defeat Class B, and will actually prevent us from closing the gap."

Katsuragi Kohei confirmed Dema Shinji's idea, and then slowly pointed out Sakayanagi Arisu's concerns, causing the students present to nod subconsciously and agree with him.

"However, there is one more thing. Class B wants to surpass us, and they will also think of this. Nominating Class D will obviously not allow them to catch up with us." Katsuragi Kohei suddenly changed the subject, "If Class B does not pursue stability, they are likely to nominate us."

Yes, that is one possibility.

Class B's academic ability is also better than Class C and Class D. No matter who nominates it, Class B has the advantage. In this case, why not just give it a go?

While nominating Class A, accept the nomination of Class C or Class D. In this way, even if Class B loses to Class A, they may be able to recover the losses from Class C and Class D, and it will not have too much impact.

If Class B beats Class A, they will not only gain 100 points, but also cause Class A to lose 50 points. The gap between the two is actually narrowed by 150 points.

Sakayanagi Arisu glanced at the expressions of the whole class and chuckled softly, "I see, in Katsuragi-kun's eyes, we should nominate Class C and then accept the nomination of Class B?"

Assuming that Class B nominates Class A, Class A wants to take a more conservative approach. Instead of nominating Class B in return and competing with Class B, it can nominate Class C in a timely manner.

The reason for doing this is the same as Class B.

"This is the safest approach right now. Of course, I can't guarantee that Class B and Class C will be able to help us get what we want." Katsuragi Kōhei answered calmly.

Arisu Sakayanagi glanced at a lot of people, and they were obviously moved. Although the failure of the sports festival had just happened not long ago, the atmosphere in the class seemed to be positive and active, but it was just anxious.

Anxious about whether or not they will fail the next special exam, and anxious about whether or not Class A will be overtaken by others.

Therefore, what they need now is not taking risks, but a steady approach that can ensure that Class A remains invincible.

It was because of this concern that Shinji Deiba proposed the plan just now.

And now, Katsuragi Kohei's plan was a compromise between Nobuji Deba and her, neither too risky nor too conservative.

"I understand. I hope reality will allow you to get what you want." Sakayanagi Arisu smiled. Although she didn't say anything, the expression on her face was obvious. She would definitely nominate Class B.

Katsuragi Kōhei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she did not object. If they started arguing, even if Class A had the advantage, it would waste a lot of time and they might even lose in the end.

It’s just a little strange. Doesn’t she want to have the right to speak?

However, Arisu Sakayanagi quickly gave the answer.

"Let's not talk about naming for now. The most urgent thing is to pair up students for the exam and prepare the exam papers." The girl kept smiling. "Although I don't think any students will be expelled, it's best to try to get high scores."

Hashimoto Masayoshi spoke as if he had expected it: "As for the pairing method, Mr. Mashima just said that students with good grades will be paired with students with poor grades. I don't think there will be any problem. Just prepare for the exam as usual."

Kōhei Katsuragi felt something was wrong. He thought that the opponent was probably very clear about his home advantage, so he simply dropped the previous topic.

"So, we have to do one thing now, and I think you know what it is." Sakayanagi Arisu said softly, "Regarding the part about making the test papers, I think it would be better for students with higher academic ability to be in charge, such as the top ten students in the class."

The top ten in the class, as expected, Katsuragi Kohei sighed, he had no reason to object to this proposal.

Hashimoto Masayoshi added: "There are eight subjects in the exam, each with 50 questions, a total of 400 questions, which is exactly 40 questions per person."

"There is still a month left until the final exams, so is this number okay?" Arisu Sakayanagi looked at the other students, or to be more precise, at the top ten students. The other students didn't even have a chance to interrupt.

"This is the only way." Katsuragi Kōhei quickly agreed with Sakayanagi Arisu's suggestion, because the other party was the top student in the class and his total score in every exam was close to full marks, while his score was hovering between second and third place.

Therefore, this time, the only one who can take the lead in setting questions is Arisu Sakayanagi, who is the student with the highest academic ability in Class A.

In addition to Arisu Sakayanagi and Kōhei Katsuragi, other students in the top ten include Toru Suzuki, Masayoshi Hashimoto, Yasuo Sanada and Ai Morishita.

Next, Class A will form an examination paper making committee composed of these people, who will be responsible for setting questions for Class A.

In addition, in order to improve the total score as much as possible, corresponding tutoring cannot be neglected, so Arisu Sakayanagi proposed that students with higher academic ability guide their partners, and also tutor classmates in the class on a regular basis.

Chapter 339: Shenshi, You Don’t Need Me Anymore

There is nothing much to say about Class A's decision. Arisu Sakayanagi wants to nominate Class B, Kōhei Katsuragi wants to be more cautious, and the rest of the students tend to prefer the latter.

Therefore, the only space that Arisu Sakayanagi can use is to ask questions.

Suzuki Toru had no objection to her arrangement, and after everyone formed a small group, today's class meeting ended there.

Although she had scared Masumi Kamuro before, her grades now are actually very good. She has moved from the lower middle level to the middle level of the class and can definitely squeeze into the top fifteen.

Maybe it was because of the tutoring, or maybe it was because she had been working very hard.

After class, Suzuki Tetsu was about to go back home when Kamuro Masumi next to him asked dryly, "Why didn't you say anything just now?"

"What should I say?" Suzuki Toru looked at her strangely as she pretended to pack her schoolbag.

"Didn't you always make fun of me for not studying well?" Kamuro Masumi felt proud of herself in this midterm exam and was looking forward to his ridicule, but he didn't react at all. She couldn't help feeling depressed.

"The past is the past, and the present is the present. I can't always compare your past with your present, right?" Suzuki Toru said righteously.

"It's the most annoying thing to hear such words coming from you." Kamuro Masumi put on her schoolbag, her skirt flying up, and walked towards the classroom door. "To you, it should be like finally getting rid of a burden like me."

The girl's legs are straight and slender. Although not as long as Guilongyuan Fenghua's, they are equally not to be underestimated. The black mid-tube socks wrapped around her slender calves, which are not particularly plump, but very well-proportioned, with a smooth luster that is somewhat shiny, extending upwards to her white and tender thighs. The slightly tightened socks and the slightly shorter skirt seem to form a subtle absolute area.

The moment you turn around, your eyes will involuntarily fall on the girl's small buttocks, which are slightly raised against the hem of her skirt. As the owner walks, you seem to be able to see the scenery under her skirt.

In fact, I didn't see anything, but this feeling was particularly eye-catching and made people imagine.

"I never thought about it that way. I'm actually very happy that I was able to teach you like this. It shows that Kamuro-san is not stupid at all." Suzuki Toru took his schoolbag. "If Kamuro-san abandoned me right after learning from me, I would be heartbroken."

"What nonsense." Masumi Kamuro walked out of the classroom, as if she didn't want to pay any attention to Toru Suzuki.

Suzuki Toru saw some girls greeting her from behind and even wanted to add her contact information, which made her look confused.

After a while, when Kamuro Masumi got rid of them, Suzuki Toru walked up to her.

"Your popularity has increased."

"I said I don't know what happened, would you believe me?"

"Yes."

"…I felt like I had endless energy, but the next day, that feeling disappeared. Then Sakayanagi asked me to run again, but the result was far worse than on the day of the race."

"Miracle, your body is still developing, it's normal to have an occasional outburst."

"..."

Masumi Kamuro didn't want to waste time on this topic, but soon someone joined in.

"Are you familiar with these, Suzuki-kun?" Sakayanagi Arisu followed the two men on crutches, "I'm very worried about Masumi-san. If something happens to her body, I can't imagine my life without her."

The corner of Kamuro Masumi's mouth twitched slightly. In fact, he just lost a tool, so he felt very inconvenient, right?

"In comparison, your body is more important, right?" Suzuki Toru slowed down his pace. The girl's calves looked too thin, and paired with white suspenders, they gave off a pale and weak feeling under the sun.

What's more, she was trying hard to catch up with Suzuki Toru and Kamuro Masumi, and it seemed particularly strenuous, making people wonder if she would fall down soon.

"Hehe, Suzuki-kun has always been worried about my health, but please don't take this little problem to heart." Arisu Sakayanagi noticed his actions and smiled.

Masumi Kamuro originally didn't want to go back with Toru Suzuki, but now seeing Arisu Sakayanagi coming closer, he had to slow down reluctantly.

"I retested Masumi's stamina and found that no matter what she did, she couldn't match her performance on the day of the competition. It's really strange." Sakayanagi Arisu sighed, "Suzuki-kun just thought that adolescent bodies have the ability to explode?"

"After all, the body's potential has not been fully developed. Some students with sports expertise even have different physical fitness from ordinary people." Suzuki Toru was talking nonsense. This is what it's like to use props in public. It's easy to arouse suspicion. Tianhua from the previous world once thought he was an alien.

"Really?" Sakayanagi Arisu smiled and did not deny his lie. Instead, he mentioned today's class meeting, "Who do you think we should nominate?"

"Anyone can do it. We are Class A and they are the challengers." Suzuki Toru didn't care. He has never been interested in class affairs. If it weren't for Sakayanagi Arisu, he wouldn't have supported Katsuragi Kōhei.

"Hehe, let me ask it another way. Who would Suzuki-kun like to nominate for Class A?"

To nominate means to actively attack the other party. The attacking party will make the test paper, and the defending party will answer the test paper. From this point of view, once you nominate a class with higher academic ability than yourself, you will most likely lose.

No matter how you look at it, it is most likely that Class B nominated Class A, but it is unlikely for Class C and Class D.

Although the school has never announced the specific situation of each class, such as individual grades, other classes cannot see them.

"Class B, right?" Suzuki Toru recalled what he had said a few days ago. "If it's a class other than Class B, they will either be violently aggressive or have their plans in mind. The former is something we would be happy to do, but the latter may cause us to lose the exam."

Masumi Kamuro was a little nervous. She secretly glanced at Toru Suzuki. Was he trying to scare her with these words?

"I see. I see." Arisu Sakayanagi nodded. "I'm worried about that, too. I don't know the exact situation of other classes, so I think it's best to find out."

As she spoke, she suddenly stopped.

Suzuki Toru turned around in confusion and saw her smiling.

"Next, if you have time, I hope you can pay more attention to Class B."

A breeze blew by, and Arisu Sakayanagi held down her beret. Her white arms looked particularly dazzling in the sun. There seemed to be a faint mist flashing in her eyes, as if she was smiling. She looked petite and fragile, but as dangerous as quicksand.

"Masumi-san, please follow me for the time being."

"what?"

"I'll be responsible for your review."

"Wait, wait, why are you suddenly so interested in me?"

"Hehe, what's wrong with that?"

"..."

Toru Suzuki watched Sakayanagi Arisu take away Kamuro Masumi. The girl's back looked a little yellow, probably because it was covered with the remaining petals of dusk.

Chapter 340 Traditional Dating Process

It seems difficult to avoid the sight of classmates when dating at school. No matter how big the campus is, you will still run into one or two students on the way.

Having said that, the traditional dating process still has to go through, shopping, watching movies and eating.

If Gaoyu didn't have an amusement park and an aquarium, Suzuki Toru would have also arranged it into today's schedule.

It was late October, the autumn sky was clear, and the morning sun streamed down from the thin clouds, streaking across the azure skyline and spreading on the sidewalk. The shaggy shades of the trees were swaying, and the oncoming breeze was a little cool.

Ichinose Hoba stood under the tree, wearing a light white off-shoulder dress. The collar revealed a hint of her delicate and smooth collarbone, and her snow-white and tender arms were exposed under the cuffs. Unlike her usual attire, she looked pure and cute at this moment, and it seemed that even her hair was emitting a dazzling light.

She was not wearing stockings, and only a small part of her fair calves was exposed under the long skirt. Her jade feet, wrapped in socks, were hidden in a pair of black leather flat shoes.

As if she was a little nervous, Ichinose Honami looked left and right from time to time. When she met the gazes of passers-by, she looked a little guilty and touched her ears as if she was fixing her hair.

"Sorry, I'm late." Suzuki Toru walked up to her. In fact, she had arrived an hour early, but it was never nice to let a girl wait for you.
