Baiyin Yuxing's strength first classroom

So she didn't completely mute her phone, and now all she received were text messages.

If it was just a simple text message, it wouldn’t matter, but now text messages have a notification sound.

This kind of reminder tone is only set when she thinks someone important needs a quick reply.

And this person. This message.

Kushida-san then picked up her phone.

I'll arrange for the Dragon Team to go through Result 1, so your identity as a favored player won't be exposed. If you go through Result 1, you'll get the favored player's reward, enough to buy a notebook when you return to school.

This message is a bit long.

It also points out that she is the one who is being favored.

but.

Looking at the message, what Kushida found incredible was that his heart seemed to calm down.

It was like someone was standing in front of her and carrying the problems that were weighing her down.

"..."

Kushida.

His thoughts raced, and soon, Kushida-san edited his reply.

[I understand. I owe you a favor this time.]

After sending the message, Kushida-san looked at Horikita-san.

"Sorry, the problem I just encountered has been solved."

Kushida said.

"There's nothing to tell you right now."

Then she walked to the door and put away the cloth that blocked the gap.

"..."

Horikita.

Horikita was still sitting upright at this moment.

Even though she wasn't good at sensing the atmosphere, she realized that Kushida must have wanted to say something important.

because.

If he encounters any problems, Kushida would probably be the type to ask for help.

This is what Horikita gained from living with Kushida-san.

Kushida is very popular and is often invited by different classmates to play together, and she also solves many troublesome problems for many people.

Rather than being a caring sister, she is more like a little angel who helps others solve problems.

But just like Shirogane said, Kushida has mentioned that he will buy a notebook after returning to school, choose to record his stress problems in the notebook, and then leave the notebook with Horikita for safety protection.

In other words, it seems that Kushida has now chosen to seek help whenever he encounters a problem.

But she was about to seek her help, but interrupted herself.

The move was subtle.

In other words.

Did the person who just sent the message solve Kushida's problem? So fast?

……

And the other side.

Hirata, also a student in Class D, is now sitting in a private room of a restaurant, feeling a little nervous.

Soon, the students he had sent messages to arrived.

There's Ayanokouji-san, whose presence isn't very strong, and then there's Yukimura-san and Karuizawa-san, who are in the same group with Ayanokouji-san.

All three of them are members of the Rabbit Group.

"I called you here because of the exam."

"And then there's the news that you all heard during the discussion that the Ox and Horse teams finished their exams early."

Hirata-san stood up and said.

But Karuizawa who walked in did not sit down.

"Ah, if you want to discuss the exam, I can't really help you."

Karuizawa said.

"And I haven't done anything bad."

Having said this, Karuizawa stood at the door and then turned and left.

But Hirata understood that Karuizawa had a history of being bullied, and he had discovered this some time ago.

He also promised that she would definitely not encounter the same things that happened in the past again in this school and this class.

So you can start a new life.

Then I also hope that she will trust her classmates.

But it must be difficult for Karuizawa to accept other people, so when he found out that Ayanokouji and Yukimura were also here, he lost interest in talking to them.

This was indeed a lack of consideration on his part.

"So, now that there are only three of us left, what kind of discussion should we have? Have we got any information about the favored class member?"

Yukimura said.

"Then it's actually a good thing that Karuizawa left."

"Yukimura, you seem to be somewhat repulsed by Karuizawa."

But Hirata noticed this.

"Isn't this perfectly normal? That woman is only causing us trouble. She behaved terribly in the group last night. Not only was she late for the rules briefing, but she also kept her distance from the rest of our class during the discussion this morning, sitting there playing with her phone the whole time."

"It's completely impossible to tell that she wants to take the exam seriously."

"And when asked if she was being treated preferentially, she completely ignored people."

"Does she even know that we're members of the same group? Our current class evaluation score is only 208 points. If she guesses information about a favored person, it'll be -50 points."

"This week of suffering on the island would become meaningless."

Yukimura said with some dissatisfaction.

And Yukimura is indeed very hardworking.

Because when he brought up the hardships on the island, Hirata recalled that at the beginning the students were arguing about whether or not to spend basic points to buy toilets, and Yukimura was the type who insisted on enduring the hardships and not buying them.

"about this point."

Hirata basically understood what Yukimura was saying. Yukimura was one of the students who was willing to take the initiative to work hard to get promoted to a higher grade, so he couldn't stand Karuizawa's uncooperative behavior.

but.

Even he hadn't received any information about the favored person from his classmates.

Therefore, if Yukimura simply asked Karuizawa, he would basically get no response. Even if Karuizawa was the one who was favored, he probably didn't tell them because he didn't trust them and was worried about the secret being leaked.

This is what makes him feel troubled.

The students in the class cannot trust each other.

“It would be nice if there weren’t any favored students in the class.”

Hirata-san said.

Soon, he realized that it was only him and Yukimura talking, so he quickly looked at Ayanokouji-san.

In the Dragon Group, Ryuuen and Katsuragi have all tested each other, and some even believe that their Class D has a super big boss, and he has also confirmed this boss.

It must be Ayanokouji-san.

"Ayanokouji-kun, unfortunately, we had some problems during the Dragon Team discussion. Students from other classes were testing each other."

"Then Ryuuen pointed out that there was a traitor in our class, and immediately after he said that, a notice appeared stating that the Ox Team and the Horse Team had finished their exams."

Hirata Road.

"impossible!"

And Yukimura said immediately.

"I also don't believe that the students in my class would betray me."

Hirata-san said helplessly.

"Or maybe I just hope there are no betrayers in the class."

"..."

And Ayanokouji remained silent.

at last.

He took out a piece of paper and a pen.

"Now the cattle and horses have finished their exams."

"If you want to confirm whether there are any traitors in Class D, you can check the rosters of the Ox Group and the Horse Group."

"Just check the email addresses of the students in our class in both groups to see if they have been selected as the preferential recipients."

In other words, if someone betrays, then the information of the favored person will be sold to other classes.

That’s why the other classes can start answering questions immediately.

However, even after the exams for the Horse Group and the Ox Group are over, it would be difficult to get classmates from the two groups to directly hand over their phones to you for inspection.

"But the act that ends the exam isn't just about guessing the other party's favored information."

Ayanokouji said.

“So the favored ones in our class may not have been revealed yet, or may not even be in the cattle or horse groups at all.”

"What do you mean?"

Yukimura pushed up his glasses.

When I met Ayanokouji-san before, I just found him to be ordinary, but now, he seems to be a little different.

And Hirata was actually listening to Ayanokouji's analysis.

"Answering quickly can end the test."

"But it has nothing to do with whether the answer was correct or not. You still remember the results of the test, right? Result three: if the answer was correct, the class that answered first gets +50 points, and the class that received the preferential treatment gets -50 points."

"And result four: incorrect answer, the class that answered the question will receive -50 points, and the class that received the preferential treatment will receive +50 points."

"In other words, if you trick the other class into guessing the wrong person who is favored by your class, you can end the exam early and still get 50 points from them."

"so."

Ayanokouji wrote on the paper.

"The current cattle and horse groups finished their exams early, or there are people in the cattle and horse groups who are favored by our class."

"Either, there's no one in our class who gets preferential treatment. It's the other class that's deliberately tricking our students into guessing wrongly, or..."

"Students from other classes bribed our students in advance and had them send in incorrect answers, forcing the exam to end while also giving their class points."

"..."

Hirata.

"..."

Hirata.

Doesn't this mean that there must be a betrayer?

There are still people in the class who have been bribed by people from other classes.
