Real teaching, hypocritical gray life

"But doing something like this is tiring, right? You can take a break, Honoki-chan. It'll be fine if you leave it to me."

"No problem. As long as I can help everyone, I will be satisfied. I hope we can stay together until graduation."

"Sure enough, Xiao Fanbo is the best."

I tried hard to distinguish Baibo's voice from the increasingly fierce quarrel and tried to ignore the mottled noises, but they had reached the point where they were difficult to let go.

"There seems to be a dispute over there..." I put down the book I was reading and looked at everyone in Class D. From the scene, it seemed that it was not an internal conflict within the class, but a conflict with other classes.

"Those are... students from Class C."

"Xiao Qianxun, you guys continue to study, I'll go over there to check on the situation."

"Then I'll come over and help." As he said that, Shiranami hurriedly stood up from his seat and tried to follow Ichinose.

"It's okay. Please keep an eye on everyone while I'm away, Chihiro."

"But if something unexpected happens—"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me. After all, this is a library. It's a public place anyway. Chihiro, just wait for me to come back."

"Okay, alright. Then be careful."

"Ha, ha! Pride comes before a fall? Stop kidding."

"We study not to avoid failing, but to get better grades. Don't compare us to others. Besides, you are so happy just because you wrote Francis Bacon. Are you crazy? What's the point of reading the parts that are not covered in the exam?"

Taking advantage of the time proposed by Shiraha, the quarrel escalated to a higher level. There was already a hint of a fight, and the red-haired boy in Class D didn't seem to have a very good personality.

Seeing this, Ichinose hurried over.

"Can't those guys in Class C just be quiet for a while?" Ninomiya couldn't help but express his opinion at this time.

"Quiet for a while?"

"Yes, the people in Class C have been causing trouble for our class from time to time this month... Don't you know, Luo Jun?"

"Sorry, I don't think I've heard of this." Why do I always feel like I don't have complete information? We are students in the same class, but I am too out of touch.

"I thought the boys had been harassed."

"Harassment? Are you referring to the C class students harassing the boys in our class?"

"Well, before, Shibata-san was tripped by them on purpose, and Okabe-san was hit by a basketball on Sugiyama-san's head, and his glasses were broken. There are many such incidents. Basically, all the male students in the class have had such experiences. Didn't Luo-san encounter any?"

so close!

“Maybe I was forgotten by them.”

"As expected, the people in Class C don't have the intention of bullying Luo. After all, he seems harmless no matter how you look at him." Tsunabe-san interrupted.

Eh, eh, eh? What is this? Saying this to a man's face is really hurtful to his self-esteem!

"But then again, why did the people in Class C do this? Are they just trying to provoke us?"

"I don't know," Bai Bo shook his head. "Xiao Fanbo argued with them several times but didn't get anything out of them. The people in Class C also said it was an accident and apologized to us casually."

"If this happened to me, I would definitely fight them to the death."

In other words, is there someone secretly planning these things? What is the purpose?

"If you want to continue studying here, you have to behave yourself. That's all." In the distance, Ichinose successfully persuaded everyone in Class C to leave, and after saying the last sentence to Class D, he returned triumphantly.

"Is there no problem anymore?"

"Well, at least they won't have conflicts in the library anymore. The people in Class C are really too much, offending other students everywhere... By the way, Luo got into some trouble, right?"

"Just now I heard that Class C offended all the boys in our class, but it seems that they have forgotten about me."

Although I have a little bit of happiness about this, why can't I stop feeling sad?

"That's good. If they cause you any trouble, you must tell me, okay?"

"I will."

"But I really think that Luo-san will never be in trouble."

"Well, is there any special reason for this?" Ichinose asked Mukaibe-san in confusion.

Please stop repeating the words "harmless to humans and animals" to me over and over again.

"Because Luo Jun's presence is so low. To be honest, if it weren't for the study session, I might not have noticed that there was such a person in our class."

........

Isn't this even more hurtful?!

“Eh, is this true? I don’t have that feeling at all.” Ichinose replied in surprise.

"Yes, that's right. I don't really understand it either. As for class leader Ichinose, it's certain. After all, you two have a special relationship." Ninomiya nodded in agreement.

"Chihiro too?" Ichinose continued to ask in disbelief.

"No, I've noticed it all the time."

I knew it...wait, what's with that murderous look in Baibo's eyes? Did I offend her in any way again?

Under Bai Bo's sinister gaze, I swallowed in fear.

After this incident, there were no more accidents in the reading club, and we successfully completed today's task. Ichinose also reminded me to eat dinner as usual. Although I really wanted to stop her from doing this, the feeling of being cared for by others was really addictive.

On the other hand, Kanzaki had to continue his research for a while. As a "close friend", I decided to stay with him and look for new books to borrow in the library.

I usually enjoy mystery books, and occasionally I read books about human nature. Although these two types of books may seem straightforward and boring among many books, they are my personal favorites.

The value of a book is measured by its own consideration.

"The 13th Hour", "Death Notice", "And Then There Were None", "The Silence of the Lambs" and - Ayanokouji.

"Hey, good evening." I'm used to this kind of thing.

"Is your study session over yet?"

"Well, this time it's a little earlier than usual. It usually lasts for another half an hour...I saw you guys arguing with the students in Class C before. What happened?"

"Because the noise we made here was a little loud, that student named Ichinose should be from Class B, right? I really have to thank you for this, otherwise we would have been in real trouble."

"She also really wants to manage it well." I said with a wry smile.

"By the way, do you know about the changes to the scope of the midterm exam?"

"Well, last Friday, the class teacher informed us that the scope of all subjects for the midterm exams had been adjusted... Didn't you know?"

By the way, I seem to have heard the name of Francis Bacon as well, but this is not part of the exam.

"It's possible that we didn't hear it... Sorry, I have to excuse myself. I need to confirm the range with the class teacher. Thank you for your reminder."

"You're welcome."

Isn't this interesting? Whether it's from the D class teacher or Ayanokouji himself.

What exactly is the so-called strength?

I continued to select books to borrow.

Chapter 18: I long for death?

"Thanks to you, no one has been eliminated so far." The man came to my side happily and stretched his body.

'Elimination' has always been a cryptic word here, and it is also an illusion they use to avoid the truth.

"What's in your quilt, Coke?"

"Physical strength recovery potion."

"It's a rare moment of celebration after all, don't you plan to have something else to drink? It seems like you haven't had a normal meal since you first came here...why don't you go in and chat with them for a while? I can help you watch outside."

"........."

"Tsk, it's still the same as before. Never mind, whatever you want, just stay here by yourself." After saying that, he went back inside.

It seems that he just came to invite me.

I drank the remaining yellowish drink in the cup in one gulp. Due to the difference in color at night, he mistakenly thought that my cup contained Coke. I could let him misunderstand me forever, but there was no point in doing so. For a dying person, there was no point in the future.

After I finished my last energy bar, I heard footsteps behind me again.

"Oh my, it's no wonder that the team led by No.1 has not had any members eliminated so far."

"........"

"Don't look at me with such cold eyes. After all, I am your mentor who cares about you the most."

"Invigilators are not allowed to interfere in this exam." I repeated the examination rules, but he didn't care at all, as if he was the rules themselves and he had the final say on right and wrong.

"The theme of this exam is not about which team eliminates the least people, but about the benefits that the team can get in the end. I don't think you know this yet."

"clear."

"Understand?" He sneered at me. "How can there be benefits without sacrifice? Your actions so far are simply disgusting to us."

"Your behavior has violated the rules." I stuffed the energy bar packaging into the test tube that originally contained the physical recovery agent and threw it away.

Don't take chances with stored items, and dispose of useless items in a timely manner.

"How could that be? I'm just here to kindly remind you. If you don't use the abilities you have, you will only end up dead."

"I appreciate your kindness."

"That's better." The man curled his lips in dissatisfaction and walked away quickly in the darkness.

Did they kindly inform me of their dissatisfaction? Or did they send someone to remind me? If so, who was behind this?

And who is the dying person?

After a long period of preparation, the midterm exam came to an end three days ago.

The warm atmosphere was the same as usual, the only change was that there was a little tension mixed in. Because the next class meeting was when the midterm results would be announced. During the free time after class, I wanted to take care of the special system called 'S System' adopted by this Highly Incubated Senior High School.

The system covers a wide range. According to the testimonies of seniors from all grades, since the school was founded, no student has truly mastered the entire system, and even the teachers are not clear about it.

But it can be determined that the core of the system is the S point.

I took out the phone issued by the school, opened the pre-set application of the school, and entered the student number and password in the program to log in. Then I opened the "balance inquiry" in the menu. In this small program, we can perform various operations, such as confirming our own points, confirming the class's holdings, or giving our balance to others.

There are two types of points.

One is class points and the other is private points.

The end of the class point is marked with 'cl', which can be regarded as the abbreviation of class. The unified full name is 'class point'. The function of this point is to indicate the data of points held by the class. At the same time, on the first day of each month, each class is given a private point corresponding to the points multiplied by 100. Finally, it is used to rank the order of the classes.

'pl' - private points, which is the abbreviation of 'private point'. Private points are transferred to each student on the first day of each month. When it is clear that they have purchased many things that ordinary people cannot imagine, everyone in Class B unanimously agrees to save points. All points of the class are stored in Ichinose's account, and only 30,000 yuan can be left every month for living expenses. Of course, if it is not enough, you can also ask Ichinose for an increase.

The school bell rang with a Big Ben as the background, and I had to wake up from the arms that were buried in my body.

Teacher Xing Zhigong also entered the classroom on time with her poster tube, jumping and skipping with joy. Seeing this, most of our class breathed a sigh of relief. After all, no teacher would be happy about expelling a student from the class, especially a highly motivated teacher like Teacher Xing Zhigong.

"I'm going to announce the midterm exam results next. Are you feeling nervous?"

"Since Mr. Hoshinomiya is so happy, it means that there are no students dropping out of our class."

"Ugh, have I shown this on my face?! This is too meaningless. I was planning to scare you guys."

"Teacher, your acting is really poor. And you must have drunk alcohol this afternoon."

"No! Teachers are not allowed to drink before class, so I didn't drink! If I had drunk, everyone's homework today would be doubled. Did you understand?"

"Isn't this an obvious threat?"

"And how can this be called a threat? This is the truth. Hosokawa-san, you don't want to be punished, do you?"

As a class teacher, it's a pity that you can always maintain your childish mentality.

"Since everyone already knows it, the teacher will just announce the answer."

The table with the subjects, students' names and corresponding scores was posted on the blackboard again. Except for the number of transcripts, there was no change from the last time.

Then Mr. Xingzhimiya wrote the average score and passing score of each course at the bottom of the transcript.

"Our class average score for math this time is 90 points. According to the passing score calculation formula, our class's passing score is 45 points, so - the whole class passed!"

"Nice! I'm not the last one." Okabe said excitedly while looking at the total score list.

"You are only second to last this time. Don't be happy too soon. If you were not too lazy and didn't perform well enough to get a score close to 80, you would still be last." Shiratori patted Okabe's shoulder and tried to calm him down.
