In practice, I originally just wanted to be a slacker.

"Yes, I received it."

Although Tatsuya Kamio's voice wasn't loud, it quickly silenced the classroom.

"Have you received your points?"

Even Ike, who hadn't spoken to Kamio Tatsuya for a long time because of the previous incident, looked over in surprise and asked her question.

"Yes, I received it."

Kamio Tatsuya said definitively, "Receiving it at midnight is still receiving it, is there a problem?"

Immediately, some students took out their phones to check their balances, only to find the same result as before.

Not a single penny was deposited into my account.

"What? Not a single point has been scored."

"Yeah, me too."

"Could it be that the school forgot about us?"

"But Kamio said he received it."

"It's definitely a scam. He didn't show us his bank balance."

After a brief commotion, Ike looked at Tatsuya Kamio again.

"Hey, Kamio, didn't you say you received points? Show everyone your balance."

"Why?"

Kamio Tatsuya's words surprised many people in the class.

"Didn't you say you received the points? And what's the harm in checking? It's not like it's really a scam, is it?"

"I am simply stating the facts. Whether you believe them or not is your freedom. I have no reason to force you to believe them."

To be honest, having an idiot like this in the class has its advantages.

You can perform jokes anytime, anywhere, making people less bored.

Just then, the school bell rang, and Ms. Chabashira walked into the classroom as usual to prepare to host the morning assembly.

However, her demeanor was quite different today, and her expression was much more serious than usual, proving that her previous predictions were indeed correct.

Today we'll be revealing the school's rules.

Moreover, Mr. Chabashira was probably speechless at D Class's behavior, after all, having a group of students like D Class is not a good thing.

Hopefully, she won't develop breast nodules or have her period delayed because of the stress.

"Sae-chan-sensei, are you missing your period?!"

He thought he had a full understanding of how stupid these guys were, but they quickly refreshed his understanding of their stupidity.

Even someone with low emotional intelligence should know what they can and cannot say, right?

That's blatant sexual harassment, you bastard!

However, Chabashira-sensei did not react to Ike's words, and instead prepared to start the morning meeting as usual.

"The morning meeting will begin now, but before that, do you have any questions? If there's anything you're concerned about, it's best to ask now."

"Um... I checked this morning, but I found that the points haven't been deposited. Isn't it supposed to be paid out on the first of every month? I went to the supermarket this morning to buy juice, but I couldn't pay. It's so embarrassing."

No sooner had Teacher Chaba finished speaking than someone began to complain.

"As I've explained before, that's correct. Points are credited on the first of each month. This month's credit has undoubtedly been confirmed."

This church?

Tatsuya Kamio stated that although he had been in the same class as the other person for a month, he still did not know this guy.

However, although Chabashira-sensei usually seems not to care much about his students, and spends less time with them than Kamio Tatsuya, he is still a teacher, so he remembers the students' names very well.

Huh?

Why are they interrogative sentences?

Could it be that Mr. Chabashira is actually a very responsible teacher?

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Gaoyuan Temple, We Have No Grudges Against Each Other...

Faced with Chabashira-sensei's words, Hondo and Yamauchi exchanged bewildered glances.

"Um, but... I really haven't received any points."

Instead of looking at them, Ms. Chabashira began to scan the entire class, seemingly observing the reactions of all the students.

Although Tatsuya Kamio had his head down, he felt that the other person's gaze seemed to linger on him for a moment.

Hey, hey, hey, I didn't do anything out of line, you're not targeting me, are you?

Kamio Tatsuya was a little frustrated. To be honest, he just wanted to be an ordinary student and get through these three years.

If he were to become a role model at this point, ordinary life might be out of reach for him, so he chose to remain a coward.

So his actions were basically the same as those of ordinary students; he just looked at Chabashira-sensei.

To be honest, he already regretted what he had said before Chabashira-sensei arrived.

Because that would be seen as an admission of guilt.

Could it be that Mr. Chabashira heard what we said back then?

It feels like it's over.

"You guys are really a bunch of stupid students."

Teacher Chabashira's voice was tinged with amusement, though it was unclear whether he was amused by the stupidity of these guys.

"Foolish...?"

Most of the students in the class stared blankly at Teacher Chazhu with their mouths agape.

Because the Chabashira-sensei of this moment is completely different from the Chabashira-sensei of the past.

It's like a hero suddenly turning into a demon king.

"The points have already been transferred to your accounts, there's no doubt about that. The fantasy that only this class has been forgotten is impossible, understand?"

"No, even if you ask us if we understand... the fact is, the points haven't been transferred in..."

Hondou looked puzzled and glanced around for agreement, but no one responded, as they were all frightened by Chabashira-sensei's current behavior.

Kamio Tatsuya secretly turned his head to look at Horikita Suzune on his left and saw her gloomy face. To this day, he still doesn't quite understand why Horikita Suzune hasn't done anything for the past month.

At that moment, a burst of laughter suddenly erupted in the classroom.

"Haha, I see, teacher, I understand the mystery now."

Koenji Rokusuke speaks a mix of Japanese and English, which makes Kamio Tatsuya think that this guy is deliberately acting very arrogant.

Yeah, I don't really like him.

He straddled the table as if no one else was there, and pointed at the church with an arrogant attitude.

"The answer is simple: it means that our Class D was assigned zero points."

"Huh? Why? Wasn't it said that there would be 100,000 points every month?"

"I don't recall ever hearing anything like that, do I, beautiful boy?"

Koenji said this.

But... what the heck is "beautiful boy"?

Is it inappropriate to describe a boy as beautiful?

And who are you talking about?

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting a little awkward, Koenji spoke up again.

"Aren't you going to say anything? After all, you discovered this secret even before I did, beautiful boy, Tatsuya Kamio."

What?

Are you talking about me?

Although I am indeed very handsome and I am very satisfied with my appearance, what's with you saying I'm beautiful?

"Um, are you sure you've got the right person? I admit I'm not bad looking, but I'm not exactly beautiful."

"No, to challenge the instigator to a duel for the sake of a lady's reputation is truly beautiful. Although you can't compare to me, you deserve the title of beautiful boy."

Upon hearing this, Kamio Tatsuya was speechless. You little thing, your rules for giving people nicknames are quite unique.

Godmother's beauty!

And what's with that "come thank me" look on your face? Hmm!?

This is ridiculous! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

We have no grudge against each other, why did you betray me?

Do I need you to help me show off?

Don't get the wrong person!

Then, when he noticed Chabashira-sensei's ambiguous smile, Kamio Tatsuya felt like he was in trouble, and his anxiety finally subsided.

Forget it, whatever, I'm tired, let's just destroy it.

"Points represent evaluation, but evaluation is not static. If the students in Class D were evaluated as outstanding talents worth 100,000 points at the beginning of the semester, then we are now worthless trash. Yeah, that's it."

Kamio Tatsuya spoke these words calmly, and the tea stalk Sae on the podium nodded in agreement.

"Evaluations are not static, and that's a good summary. There were 98 instances of being late or absent. There were 391 instances of talking privately in class or using a mobile phone, and one instance of fighting in the classroom."

Hey, hey, hey, did you deliberately pick me for that last line?

Kamio Tatsuya was speechless.

"You've done so many things that are not in line with your student status within a month, and as a result, the 100,000 points that should have been yours have been completely deducted. If you had negative points, you would have more than zero points now."

In fact, Chabashira Sae was also quite dumbfounded. This was the third batch of students she had taught. Although she had taught the first two batches as well, it was the first time she had seen them reduce their points to zero in the first month.

Regardless of what Chabashira-sensei thinks, Kamio Tatsuya is fine as long as there are no negative points. He doesn't want his points to be deducted because of these bastards.

“Tea Pillar Teacher, I don’t recall receiving any explanation about this…”

Hirata Yosuke, the class leader, spoke on behalf of the students, saying what they wanted to say, but was immediately refuted by Chabashira-sensei.

"Hirata, what you're saying is really strange. Why do I need to explain it in detail? Following classroom rules is a given, isn't it? Didn't you learn that in elementary and middle school?"

Hirata Yosuke was speechless. In fact, he knew that was the truth, but if he didn't say it, the students in the class probably wouldn't understand.

"Since you received this kind of education during the nine years of compulsory education, why do you think that these rules automatically become invalid in high school?"

Unacceptable without explanation? How can you come up with such a twisted logic? If you had simply done what is taken for granted, I doubt you would have gotten a zero. This is entirely your own responsibility.

"Come to think of it, you're the first class to waste all your points in the first month. This will probably be recorded in school history."

Stop scolding, stop scolding.

Kamio Tatsuya wanted to laugh, but he hesitated.

"And you guys, who are only freshmen in high school, actually think you can use 100,000 points without any limit every month? (Are you kidding me?)"

This is a school dedicated to cultivating outstanding talent; do you really think they'd allow you to act so recklessly? (Of course not.)

Common sense tells us this is impossible, right? (Indeed.)

Why didn't you continue thinking about it? (I did think about it.)

Why didn't you notice the problem? (Yes, you did.)

If you noticed the problem, why keep ignoring it? (I didn't ignore it; in fact, I took action. The more than three million personal points in my account are the result of my efforts!)

Teacher Chazhu's probing question silenced the class.

Meanwhile, Tatsuya Kamio silently answered all of Chabashira's questions.
