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

Tatsuya Kamio couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Why don't you just tell the whole class to hand in blank papers? That way everyone will get zero, the average score will be zero, and no one will fail."

When Kamio Tatsuya spoke, the three people in the mountains were immediately enlightened.

"Yes, yes..."

Haha, that's right, right my ass.

How could someone say something like that? Where's your face?

Looking at the three of them, Tatsuya Kamio simply found it amusing.

"Enough! Do you think I, your teacher, don't exist?" Chabashira Sae stopped the current situation, then looked at Kamio Tatsuya. "Kamio, besides this, don't you have anything else to say?"

"No, what do I have to say?"

"Do you think it wouldn't matter even if these three were expelled?" Chabashira Sae asked Kamio Tatsuya in a deep voice.

"Tea Pillar Teacher, as I've already said, I'm not interested in being promoted. In that case, would it make any difference to me whether I give up on those three?"

Kamio Tatsuya knew exactly what Chabashira Sae wanted to say.

It's simply a matter of how foolish it is to abandon your partner here.

Admittedly, Sudo has excellent athletic ability, and if the next special exam is related to sports, Sudo may be able to shine.

But so what? Tatsuya Kamio had no desire to be promoted.

Since I don't want to be promoted, and saving them won't bring any real benefits, why should I save them?

Besides, why did you ask me? Ask Koenji instead!

You think I'm easy to bully?

Chapter Sixty-Three: The Scapegoat Tactics

Looking at Tatsuya Kamio's cold smile, Saeba Chabashira felt a headache coming on. It wasn't that Class D couldn't drop out, but if these three dropped out at this time, then Class D would have no chance of being promoted to a higher class.

"Um, Kamio-kun, what did you mean by what you just said?"

At this moment, Hirata stood up and asked a question.

Kamio Tatsuya had a fairly good impression of Hirata, so since Hirata had asked, Kamio Tatsuya didn't mind explaining it to him.

"Now that things have come to this, I think you should understand that this school doesn't admit students based on academic performance, right?"

Hirata nodded in agreement.

If students were admitted solely based on academic performance, Sudo and his friends would never have been able to enroll.

“Since it’s not based on grades, there must be other factors to consider.” Kamio Tatsuya said, glancing at the three Sudos sitting together. “While we can’t see any particular qualities in Ike and Yamauchi, it’s quite obvious in Sudo that he was selected for this school based on his athletic ability.”

His words immediately drew angry glares from Yamauchi and Ike, but at that moment no one would notice the two idiots.

"Since Sudo was admitted to the school because of his athletic ability, it means that sports must also be one of the school's evaluation criteria."

This time it was a written test, next time it might be an athletic ability test, that's when Sudo will really shine, which is why he's involved in the promotion process.

Now that things had come to this point, some students in the class seemed to understand the importance that Sudo might have for the class's promotion to a higher level.

A brief silence fell over the classroom, then Hirata spoke with a bitter tone: "In that case, is there no way to prevent the three of them from dropping out?"

"Of course."

"Then please..."

"But why should I save them? You don't know why Yamauchi and Ike were suspended from school, do you?" Kamio Tatsuya's question made Hirata fall silent.

"If it were just Sudo, I wouldn't mind offering a suggestion, but unfortunately..."

Tatsuya Kamio glanced at Kazuo Yamauchi and began to think.

Consider whether you should save them, and what the benefits would be if you did.

Then, Tatsuya Kamio thought of something.

Something he had been ignoring all along.

That refers to the upper-level classes in the higher grades. Not only in the second year, but even in the third year, there are students who have been expelled.

The students in the class were deemed sufficiently outstanding by the school upon enrollment, which is why they were placed in the class.

Since some of them have been expelled, it means that expulsion is probably full of uncertainty.

If one day this uncertainty were to befall me...

Kamio Tatsuya immediately sensed something was wrong; he really didn't want to drop out of school.

That being the case...

Let's make plans as soon as possible.

Tatsuya Kamio glanced at Ike and Yamauchi, then smiled.

"If they are willing to agree to one condition, I am not incapable of saving them."

As soon as Kamio Tatsuya spoke, the three who had been in despair were immediately energized and looked at Kamio Tatsuya with hope.

"What, what conditions?"

Upon hearing Yamauchi's question, Tatsuya Kamio smiled kindly.

"It's very simple. As long as you promise to take responsibility for my dropping out of school if I ever face that situation, I will agree to save you."

Immediately, Class D erupted in an uproar.

"Would the school rules allow something like this to happen?"

Hirata looked at Chabashira Sae in great surprise.

Chabashira Sae frowned, because she didn't know if it was feasible or not; at least no one had ever done it this way before.

"I do not know."

"No, I don't know?"

“This school has thousands of rules, and it’s not surprising that even the teachers don’t necessarily know them all.”

"Tea Pillar Sae said calmly."

"However, I think it may not be impossible, because dropping out of school can also be considered an item, just not a good one."

As long as it's an item, you can buy it with points.

Upon hearing this, Tatsuya Kamio raised an eyebrow: "So, even if they agree to withdraw me from school, I still have to pay some money to transfer this result to them?"

Chabashira Sae shook her head again: "I don't know, because something like this has never happened before, so I need to check with the school."

Class D immediately fell silent, with the students anxiously awaiting Teacher Chazhu's decision.

Kamio Tatsuya didn't care about the outcome; if the required points weren't many, he would choose to save them.

If the required points are unreasonable, Kamio Tatsu will refuse to help; it's that simple.

But the others, especially the three idiots, felt differently.

This will determine their fate!

Fortunately, the time frame was short, and Mr. Chazhu quickly received a reply from the school.

"With the mutual agreement of both parties, only 200 million private points are needed to transfer the result of withdrawal from school, but this is only applicable to withdrawal results generated during the exam."

In other words, if you are expelled for violating school rules, the result cannot be transferred to someone else.

Two million per person doesn't seem like a lot, at least we can afford it now!

Tatsuya Kamio smiled and looked at the three idiots.

"I have no problem, what about you?"

Just then, Hirata suddenly stepped forward again.

"Teacher, how many points are needed to get the school to reverse its expulsion of Chi and the other two students?"

Upon hearing this, Chabashira Sae smiled.

"You're quite clever, Hirata, you actually discovered this rule."

The students in the class were very excited when they heard what Chabashira-sensei said, and hope appeared on the faces of the three Ike members.

If you can afford to pay the minimum amount, you won't be at the mercy of others.

Kamio Tatsuya's expression remained unchanged. Hirata's thinking was correct, but unfortunately, the entire Class D might not be able to afford that number of points.

"It's just a pity that you can't afford this price." A playful smile appeared on Chabashira's face, as if to dispel Hirata's hopes. "To revoke someone's expulsion, you need 300 class points plus 2000 million private points."

With 300 class points and 2000 million personal points, the three of them would have 900 class points and 6000 million personal points. How could anyone possibly come up with that many points?

Class D doesn't have a single class point right now, and 2000 million private points is an astronomical figure for them.

Even if they were killed, they probably wouldn't be able to come up with that much money. The glimmer of hope that had just appeared vanished without a trace once again.

"Is there no other way?"

When Hirata spoke, he subconsciously looked at Tatsuya Kamio.

Kamio Tatsuya, however, remained unfazed, still beaming with smiles: "My conditions still stand."

"Why, why is this happening?"

"This is too much!"

"me……"

Seeing the three stammering and angry-looking people, Tatsuya Kamio remained completely unperturbed.

"Whether you choose to drop out of school now or gamble on a chance to survive is entirely up to you."

As you've seen, my grades are definitely above the passing grade. You don't need to worry about me being expelled because of failing an exam.

Kamio Tatsuya went to great lengths to trick these three people into signing the contract.

However, his words caused most of the students in the class to develop a dislike for Tatsuya Kamio, who was taking advantage of the situation.

Of course, Tatsuya Kamio didn't care about their opinions.

At the same time, some people regretted not standing up sooner, so they could have had an extra life, and maybe their points could have bought their scores.

Kamio Tatsuya quietly watched the three of them, waiting for their reply.

He wasn't worried at all that the three of them wouldn't agree.

The choice is simple: drop out of school now or keep a sliver of hope.

"I promise you!"

The first to make a choice was Sudo Ken. His voice was low, but he still chose to agree.

Great, just as Tatsuya Kamio predicted, this guy definitely won't choose to drop out of school at this time for the sake of basketball.

After Sudo Ken agreed, Yamauchi and Ike also agreed one after the other.

Upon hearing their words, Tatsuya Kamio smiled. "Very good, I have three lives now."

Next, Tatsuya Kamio took out a piece of paper and drew up a temporary contract.

"Tea Pillar Teacher, could you please be my witness?"

Chabashira Sae nodded. She even thought it was better this way. The school's exams were full of uncertainty, and it was the best thing that Ike and Yamauchi, those two scumbags, could drop out in place of Kamio Tatsuya.

"Okay, you can tell me your plan now. I'll bring you a copy of the contract after the first class."

Upon hearing this, Tatsuya Kamio smiled.

"It's very simple, Mr. Chabashira. Just sell me the points that are close to failing for those three students."

Upon hearing Tatsuya Kamio's words, the class immediately fell silent.

"Buy, buy points?"

Is this even possible?

The students in the class all looked at Teacher Chazhu expectantly.

"Haha, what you said is really funny. I never thought you would ask me to sell you my points. I never even imagined it."

Haha, please stop pretending, okay?
