Chapter 247: Win-win?
Kanzaki's strategy is simple and straightforward, which is to use points to directly force Class D to give up the qualification for the exam.
However, the huge price required for such an action is simply not something Class B can afford at the moment, not to mention some external factors that make Shibata simply not believe that Class D will agree to compromise with Class B.
"You also have to understand that we don't have that much capital right now. If we want to persuade Class D to withdraw from the competition, we need at least 200 class points before they will consider it, right?"
Shibata's calculation was correct. It would be difficult for Class D to reach a settlement if the class points were less than 200.
"No, no, no, I finally know what the disagreement between me and Shibata is. First of all, I think Miyako came with bad intentions. With only our two classes left, I don't believe Miyako will do nothing. Instead of living in fear, why can't we use money to buy victory? Besides, Class D has already had all its base points cleared by Class C. They need class points more than we do."
Kanzaki's words made everyone think.
Everyone now thinks that Tianyin’s arrival is a bad thing, and this judgment is set in stone.
Ichinose also heard the news that Class D's points were cleared out by Class C, but because Ichinose usually didn't pay much attention to intelligence gathering, they had no idea what had happened to Class D. The only thing they knew was that Class D's base points had been cleared out by Class C.
As time goes by, it would be a blessing for Class D to have only a few dozen class points left.
If at this time Class B is willing to use class points in exchange for Class D's withdrawal.
It is hard to say whether Class D, which has suffered heavy losses, will agree.
"Then suppose Class D agrees, how are we going to pay the class points? Last time we traded class points privately, we were heavily fined."
Shibata's tone also softened.
Because just as Kanzaki said, all the situations that are unfavorable to Class D have come together. If they can win without fighting, some price can be accepted. However, there have been precedents of punishment for trading class points. Shibata has not thought of any safe trading method. And if the most critical step, class points, cannot be guaranteed to be transferred safely, Class D will not buy it.
"Shibata-san, have you forgotten the rules of the exam? If you guess the identity of the other party's lurker, you can directly obtain all the other party's exam points except the base points. If that is not enough, the exchange student who guesses the lurker can also get an additional 100 class points as a reward. This should be enough, right? If it is still not enough, you can give them a point reward for the key card holder."
Kanzaki adjusted his glasses proudly.
Shibata and Ichinose were both stunned by Kanzaki's words.
According to Kanzaki, the general meaning is to reveal the identity of the key card holder and the lurker to Class D, and then give all the class points except the base points to Class D at once, in exchange for Class D's withdrawal from the competition.
Faced with such a huge temptation, no matter how resolute Class D is, they will waver, right?
"Kanzaki-san, there is nothing wrong with your plan, but won't our benefits be greatly reduced? According to what you said, even if Class D withdraws and gives us the victory, won't we only get a few dozen to a hundred base points? Class D, on the other hand, can quickly improve its ranking with the points we give up, and it won't be a problem for them to even surpass Class C."
Ichinose realized the crux of the problem. This was no longer a question of whether the plan would work or not. If you were to give three or four hundred class points to others, they would definitely take them. But after they took them, even if they withdrew from the competition, they would still have more class points than Class B would have gotten. This would be tantamount to raising a tiger to harm themselves, and cultivating a strong competitor to compete with them for the position in Class A.
"Ichinose, this is just the beginning. The reason why I call it a transaction is that the transaction is naturally mutually beneficial. Similarly, we need the list of key card holders and lurkers of Class D. It is equivalent to an exchange of class points between Class B and Class B. Even if Class B loses a little, it is nothing more than a loss of class points. But we have base points to make up for it, but Class D does not. If the transaction is successful, both Class B and Class D will increase their class points, but the gap in the middle will not change much."
Kanzaki's strategy was finally fully formed.
To put it bluntly, it was just a copy of Long Yuan's previous plan, where all classes were honest with each other and disclosed the lists of key card holders and lurkers, and then everyone earned points together.
However, because the three classes ABD questioned the trust level of Class C, Long Yuan's plan did not succeed. Only Class AB signed a contract with Class C. Every month, everyone in the class paid 10,000 personal points to Class C in exchange for the names of Class C's key card holders and lurkers.
Now Kanzaki copied Ryuen's plan and planned to use it when Class D's base points were cleared, because Ryuen's plan itself was a win-win situation.
Therefore, this is the best way to convince Class D.
Shibata was completely speechless after hearing this. Ryuen's plan was indeed feasible, but it failed before because they couldn't gain mutual trust.
Although Class B currently has some conflicts with Amane, Ichinose and Amane have a good relationship, so Amane might agree to this method.
"As expected of you, Kanzaki-san. Then let's do as you say. If everything goes well, it will be a win-win outcome for both parties and it can avoid unnecessary fighting. I will go to Tianyin to discuss this matter."
Ichinose ran out of the tent confidently and ran towards Amane. He then told her all of Kanzaki's plans and waited for Amane's response with anticipation.
Tianyin pondered for a long time and then slowly shook his head.
“Although your method is good, I refuse.”
“Why is that? Is there something unfair about Kanzaki-san’s plan? Amane, if you are dissatisfied with anything, please tell us and we can discuss it together.”
Ichinose seemed to be convinced that Kanzaki's proposal was the best way to avoid a conflict with Amane, and when he saw Amane's refusal, he quickly spoke up and tried to continue to promote the matter.
Tianyin had actually thought of this approach a long time ago.
Ichinose was right. It would be a win-win situation if they revealed their special identities to each other. Moreover, Class B did not know that Class C's sneak attack had been judged as a violation by the school and was an invalid occupation, and Class D's base points would not be deducted. In this way, Class D's class points would be infinitely close to Class B's after the exam.
"I heard from Lingyin that Ryuen held a meeting with you and proposed this idea at the meeting, but why did no one agree at that time? The answer is very simple, that is, it depends on the person."
Ichinose was a little confused by Amane's answer.
She didn't understand what Tianyin meant.
Seeing Ichinose's confused look, Amane smiled maliciously and whispered in Ichinose's ear.
"Class A paid a huge amount of personal points to let me deal with Class B. I know your plan is good, but unfortunately I need to complete the commission given to me by Class A first."
Chapter 248: The powerless leader
"You want to discipline our B class? Why does Katsuragi-san want to discipline our B class?"
Ichinose had no idea what Kanzaki had done yesterday. At this moment, she was looking at Amane with a puzzled look on her face. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't figure out why Katsuragi would target Class B.
Because there was a circular mountain between the camps of the two classes, Class B was directly separated from Class A.
In addition, Ichinose has strict management over Class B, so normally no students from Class B would cross the line without permission.
When Katsuragi left as an exchange student, he did not show any dissatisfaction with Class B. Ever since Katsuragi left the Class B camp, Classes A and B have never had any contact with each other again. Even if he used the excuse of disliking them, Ichinose still found it hard to accept.
"Tianyin...you didn't lie to me, right?"
Ichinose asked in a low voice, somewhat embarrassed.
As soon as she said this, Ichinose still felt something was wrong. Since Tianyin told her this news, it meant that there was a high probability that it could be verified.
Moreover, Ichinose couldn't think of any reason why Amane would lie to her. Even if Amane wanted to lie to her, there was no need to use Class A as a shield. After all, unpleasant things did happen between Amane and Class B before, so there was no need to use Class A as an excuse for revenge.
If the news is false, then the only possibility is that Tianyin is trying to sow discord between Class B and Class A.
However, the relationship between Class B and Class A is equally irreconcilable. Class A will never show goodwill to the pursuers behind them.
In other words, Tianyin had no reason to lie to her.
That's most likely true.
"You can ask Kanzaki about this matter and you will know. Since I have reached an agreement with Class A, I can no longer cooperate with you, Ichinose. Please forgive me."
Ichinose felt embarrassed by Amane's words.
If she were to cooperate with Tianyin, Tianyin might agree, but as for Class B... the probability itself is not high, and Class A inexplicably reached an agreement with Tianyin.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for Tianyin to cooperate with Class B anymore.
Ichinose returned to the tent somewhat frustrated.
When everyone saw Ichinose’s listless look, they naturally knew that Tianyin had rejected the request for cooperation.
"That girl is really ungrateful. She clearly has the fastest way to end the exam but she is unwilling to cooperate with us. This is the style of Class D. It seems that there is a reason why she was assigned to Class D."
Kanzaki complained unhappily.
Ichinose remembered what Amane said and couldn't help but ask Kanzaki.
"Amane said that Class A hired her to discipline us, and she also said that Kanzaki-san knew the reason behind this. Kanzaki-san, are you hiding something from everyone?"
Ichinose's words made everyone in the tent focus their attention on Kanzaki.
Except for Shibata who lowered his head slightly and didn't intend to participate in the discussion, everyone else had a look of confusion on their faces.
When did Kanzaki become so serious that Class A had to single him out for discipline?
In their impression, Kanzaki has basically never left the Class B camp, so naturally he wouldn't have much interaction with Class A.
So what did he do that made Class A willing to discipline Class B even at a certain cost?
Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Kanzaki's vanity was greatly satisfied.
He was just about to show off his achievements when his eyes inadvertently glanced at Shibata, who was sitting in the corner with his head lowered and not saying a word.
This plan was suggested to him by Shibata. If the whole story was explained clearly, everyone's attention would definitely be on Shibata who made the suggestion, and they would not look up to him as the actual executor.
After a little hesitation, Kanzaki decided to do some proper processing on what happened yesterday.
"Since it's already known by others, I won't hide it anymore. Yesterday, I took advantage of the fact that Class A was not in the mood to manage their base after the fire, and I occupied all of their bases. This way, even if Class A withdraws from the exam, they won't get any base points. There's no doubt that Class A will be the last class like Class C this time. No, they should end the exam with zero class points and become the worst class, right? Hahahaha."
Kanzaki smiled smugly.
The people around him looked at him in surprise.
"As expected of Kanzaki-san, you were so careful to find the omission of Class A. You are really amazing."
"That's right, right? In this case, the winner of this exam will undoubtedly belong to our Class B, right?"
"Kanzaki-kun is so handsome. If Katsuragi knew about this unexpected move, he would be so angry, right?"
……
Kanzaki waved his hands repeatedly as he listened to everyone's compliments.
"No, no, I was just thinking about sharing the pressure with Ichinose-san. Yesterday, I happened to think that Class A might have been careless after the fire, so I went to check it out with a fluke mentality. I didn't expect that I was right. Maybe God is also helping Class B."
Ichinose hesitated to speak. She had originally intended to reprimand Kanzaki-san for acting so recklessly, even though Class A was destined to become Class B's enemy.
But before Class B is ready to face Class A head-on, Class B should keep a low profile and accumulate strength.
Class A is now busy with internal strife, which gives Class B ample time.
But by doing this, Kanzaki can use Katsuragi to unite the students of Class A to face the outside world together. Facing the temporarily united Class A, Ichinose feels a heavy pressure on his shoulders.
The words of scolding finally turned into a bitter smile when they reached his lips.
Everyone was praising Kanzaki for his great contribution to the class, so how could she let her classmates down and criticize Kanzaki at an inappropriate time?
Ugh.
"So Miyako-san didn't lie. What should we do? Miyako-san rejected Kanzaki-san's proposal. Can we just watch her spy on us here?"
A girl cast a disgusted look towards where Tianyin was.
"Don't worry about that. Miyako isn't the leader of Class D. How can she reject our proposal? I think it would be better to discuss this matter with Hirata directly."
Kanzaki spoke again and offered his suggestion.
“Bypass Amane? Maybe we can try. Then please… Shibata-san, go to Class D and tell Hirata-san about Kanzaki-san’s suggestion. Remember not to clash with Class D.”
Ichinose stressed anxiously.
The reason why she didn't choose Kanzaki was because she was afraid that Kanzaki would look down on Class D, which would result in her attitude not being accepted by Class D, and ultimately affect Class D's decision.
It might be better to let Shibata, who is known as the "male version of Ichinose", take action. However, this title makes Ichinose feel very embarrassed.
"Please leave it to me"
Chapter 249: Help?
At noon, Mr. Hoshinomiya came to the B class camp again and announced the results of yesterday's peeping.
Class A abstained.
Class B chooses to spy on Class D's Kiyotaka Ayanokouji, who has a special identity.
Class C abstained.
Class D abstains.
The only good news for Class B is that it is already the sixth day, and Class D has finally exposed a guy with a special identity.
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka.
Most of them have never heard of this name.
I think Class D deliberately let an inconspicuous guy take on an important role in order to cover up important information.
After receiving the order from Ichinose, Shibata set off for Class D's camp without even having lunch.
The round trip between the camps of the two BD classes takes nearly an hour. When there is no convenient means of communication, the fastest way is to convey information manually.
Shibata knows very well that once cooperation is proposed, others will not tell you whether they agree or refuse. It is more likely that both parties will haggle and bargain at the negotiation table.
Once the dispute begins, it will take a very long time for both parties to agree. The issues that require fighting for or making concessions are not even something Shibata can resolve. Ichinose might even have to come over.
So the sooner he gets going the better.
Little did he know that Shibata's every move was under Tianyin's watch.
