Real teaching, hypocritical gray life

Changed back to the name again......

"I was with Himeno just now, maybe we can find out by asking other students in the class."

"I thought you knew something like this would happen."

Do you think I am a god?

Pushing through the crowd, I came to my mailbox and turned the combination lock.

Although I don’t use the mailbox very often, I do use it occasionally for express deliveries, notifications from school, and transactions between students.

Match the numbers and the unlocked door opens.

Sure enough, there was [a piece of copy paper folded into quarters] inside.

Shortly after returning to the dormitory, I received a message on my phone.

[I have completed the task you requested. —Ayanokouji]

It's unnecessary.

Chapter 225 Want to Touch

[Our brain's ability to process information is limited.]

Adhering to this principle, greedy simultaneous execution of multiple tasks will lead to an overabundance of information, which will cause indigestion in the brain and the learning system will slowly shut down.

While most students feel depressed about the repetitive study days, time still moves forward, and there is even a sense of urgency that it is approaching.

Although studying brings people long and difficult times, looking back the truth and the feeling coincide.

Then, winter comes and the date moves into the last month of the year - December.

There are only three days left until the final exam, Friday. Starting from tomorrow is Saturday, followed by Sunday, no classes. The exam will start directly on Monday.

This is why Ji Ye and I did not arrange the movie watching time on our rest days. It is a taboo for ordinary students to relax before the exam. Without maintaining a certain sense of tension and learning thinking, it is difficult to grasp the exam time and get high scores.

Honestly, there is nothing to worry about in preparing for the exam. Class A has been more united than other classes since the beginning of the school year, and although the organization and quality of study sessions cannot be said to be the best, at least the efforts so far cannot justify the superficial study, which is worthy of praise.

The problem lies elsewhere.

First, the leader of Class B, Sakayanagi, harassed our class. The test questions were leaked, the subject of the photo... Fortunately, the words of "fighting in an upright manner" at the beginning of the special exam did not gain our trust, and everyone in the class still united to fight against the foreign enemy. As a result, the aggressiveness of the harassment was greatly reduced for us.

However, the targeting of Ichinose is still extending.

There is no doubt that they are operating in secret, and their actions against Class A... no, rather, their actions against Ichinose and me are roughly predictable.

There is something special about the other party's words that is quite concerning. In that case, it is obviously not something that can be easily done by asking the teacher, and the content of the conversation cannot be cancelled by paying points to get the truth. The answer to this doubt did not immediately emerge in my mind. But there is no doubt that it is a bit strange. Until the end, the situation is considered [smooth].

There is nothing wrong with the negotiation. It is the teacher's duty and Mr. Hoshinomiya must not [lie]. That is why I felt a sense of disharmony from Mr. Hoshinomiya.

There is a flaw, a loophole that can be exploited, and the loophole is so obvious that after being discovered, one can realize that the fact is that it is foolproof, there is no loophole to be exploited, and there are no flaws anywhere.

I see. That’s what happened.

Yes, Sakayanagi knew exactly what I was doing. Although I personally thought that my movements were difficult to be determined, I didn't know if I had the ability to do so. After all, no one survived, and my movements were restricted afterwards.

Why was she able to clearly understand what I was pursuing? It was probably because she had analyzed her own actions hundreds of times, even though the time we spent together was quite limited............

Sakayanagi's goals are [trust between people] and [winning over Class A in total points].

The former...you could say he simply wanted me to know the truth.

The latter, that is, the strategy of winning in total score is definitely limited. The only legitimate means is for all of Class B to study hard, or to do a test paper of equal difficulty. It is probably a choice between these two ways. However, we, Class A, who are at the same level, also adopt the same combat mode.

Recently, apart from my own class, the situation of Class D is obvious. After all, the agreement of the joint study meeting is in front of us, and the cooperative relationship is still ongoing. However, the status of Class B and Class C is a little unclear.

Although Class C was not our competitor in this exam, I never saw them studying together in a group. I never saw them in a cafe, library, or classroom where it was easy to concentrate on studying.

Is it that I simply haven't met them, or are the students in Class C working hard where no one else can see?

The first time I ran into Shiina in the library, it was just a request from a girl who had little contact with Shiina in the class, not a so-called class study session. Later, when we met again in the cafe of the Keyaki shopping mall, I also learned a little bit that everyone in Class C didn’t seem to be very worried about failing the final exam.

This is probably related to the traitor [Kushida Kikyo] who exists within Class D.

Class B stayed in their classrooms quite quietly, not leaving the house. They had not made any "harassment" moves since the last time. Now it seemed that Sakayanagi's "fair fight" was somewhat credible.

Of course, this result will only apply to Ichinose.

In this way, in a sense, the Paper Shuffle special exam is indeed a "fair battle" as Sakayanagi said. In order to win, both of our classes are studying very hard, but even so, the academic ability is evenly distributed. No matter what, we are fighting for our own victory.

As a result, Ichinose's thinking would easily fall into misunderstanding and become caught in a dilemma.

"Is Ichinose thinking about something?"

"Um, ah, sorry, I stopped so suddenly......"

There were two figures walking in front of each other at the staircase. Ichinose suddenly stopped and stood there at a loss. I thought that Honoki had suddenly become dizzy, so I quickly held her shoulders and held her close to my side, but it turned out that was not the case.

"I feel a little sleepy, ahaha............"

Ichinose scratched her blushing cheeks and said it embarrassedly. At the same time, I could feel my arms getting heavier. Fortunately, my strength was not so weak that I couldn't support Fanbo's body.

Ichinose held a large brown envelope in his hand. The file contained the exam questions that were jointly created by the question-setting group led by Beppu students over the past month. This envelope was equivalent to deciding the fate of Class A. If it was lost or intercepted in the middle of the journey, it would probably be a tragedy.

Because of this, Fanbo did not allow any other students except the one who set the test to touch the test paper, including me. It was created under extreme confidentiality.

Because it was Beppu-san and Ichinose who ultimately revised it, they were the only ones who knew all the questions, and I had no information at all.

By the way, although Honoki has visited my dormitory room many times before, I have never visited Ichinose's dormitory. As expected, the fact that a boy enters the girls' floor is too embarrassing for me to accept. In addition, Ichinose's visits have been decreasing recently. I guess she is troubled by academic problems.

"............Or let me hand in the [Attack] test, and Ichinose will go back and rest first."

"That won't work. Luo-kun, have you forgotten? I am the only candidate for the class application acceptance representative. If I don't submit the application acceptance test myself, it will be considered as [false acceptance] and invalidated."

This is probably the scene that Ichinose and others least want to see.

"Then at least go to bed early tonight. It will be embarrassing if you are too tense."

"I, I understand.........Let's go quickly."

Ichinose tugged at the corner of my clothes, and I followed her.

"What are the chances of winning?"

"I can't say for sure. I don't know the true academic level of Class B, and the school has intervened and made many adjustments... But there is no doubt that everyone who set the questions tried their best."

So I guess she did a good job. I came to this conclusion from Hobo's confident and cute expression, even though it was a little haggard.

The problem lies after this - how to protect this test question.

During the lunch break, there were no other students on the way to the office, so the two of us went straight to the door of the teacher's office. Fan Bo called Teacher Hoshinomiya, and soon Teacher Hoshinomiya appeared.

With a look of excitement.

"Did Mr. Hoshinomiya encounter anything happy?"

"Oh, the teachers are having a cocktail party this afternoon. We'll have a day off tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so we can drink as much as we want!"

If I were still a student who didn't know much about Hoshinomiya's personality, I would have been shocked by what she said just now. She looks like a lovely and virtuous wife, but she can say such [bold words] casually.

"The same goes for Mr. Hoshinomiya. You should drink less. Also, please don't come to the classroom to supervise the exam on Monday when you smell of alcohol. Otherwise, you will definitely get into trouble."

"How is that possible~"

Teacher Hoshinomiya waved his hand without paying attention to Fanbo's reminder. The other party is an adult, so he should have some self-awareness.

"Can you please ask Mr. Hoshinomiya to take care of this?"

"The [offensive] test file. Looks like it was brought here by security."

"Yes, Mr. Hoshinomiya. This is the final draft of the test that will be submitted to you next."

Mr. Hoshinomiya understood what we meant and reached out to take the brown envelope.

"Yeah, I was just wondering if I should remind you guys. It was really timely that it was delivered the next moment."

I was a little concerned about this statement, so I asked about it.

"I remember that the deadline for correcting the test questions was 18: today. Will it still be [on time] if it is six hours earlier?"

"No. Unless you deliberately go to the wrong time, you won't be [on time]. But by that time, you might be late for the teacher's cocktail party."

"......"

I really shouldn't have had such high expectations of the teacher in front of me.

"Uh-huh, I've received the test. Do you need to check it again?"

"No need, I've already confirmed it before I came... Mr. Hoshinomiya, were there any test papers that were [pretended to be accepted] before I came?"

"No, there is no manipulation in this regard."

"I see... Then is there such a thing as [other exams have been accepted] or [there are exams scheduled to be held next]?"

"No, that's not the case. Because Xiao Fanbo is the only candidate in the class to apply for the representative, and it would be too far-fetched to accept the test papers submitted by other classes."

Hearing this, Ichinose breathed a sigh of relief, feeling extremely tired both mentally and physically.

"Anything else? The teacher still has plenty of time, so feel free to ask any questions you have."

As if deliberately reminding him, Mr. Hoshinomiya stated the truth in a subtle tone.

However, Ichinose didn't realize this, and all that was left was her worry.

"Can you show me the partner combination table again?"

“I see…”

Mr. Hoshinomiya was a little disappointed with Honoki's performance, but he still handed over the previous partner combination form.

--------

Group 18: Ryuji Kanzaki... Ryuji Kanzaki

Group 20: Falling Leaves............Ji Yexue

Group 21: Ichinose Honoki............

--------

Nothing changes and the table ends up remaining the same as it was at the beginning.

"No problem?"

"Is there any problem......?"

After I asked worriedly, Fanbo returned the form to me in silence.

"Teacher Hoshinomiya. These test questions and answers are related to the victory of Class A. We must avoid information leakage at all costs. If anyone wants to see these test questions later, can you refuse them all? Please don't show them to anyone, including myself."

Ichinose negotiated with Mr. Hoshinomiya just in case.

I'm not sure whether Hoshinomiya-sensei would agree with this.

"Does it need to go to this extent, refusing to disclose intelligence or something?"

"Please do that if you can."

Ichinose requested.

"I understand that you are afraid of information leaks and want to be fully prepared. The school has no right to refuse. But, of course, there are conditions~"

"Is it the same as the requirement to become [the sole candidate for class application acceptance representative]?"

"Yes. It is necessary to know if this is a requirement for the entire class. Does everyone agree?"

So that’s how it is. Is there such a connection within this layer?

"Well, not yet. I will get everyone's consent after this... So could you please keep the test questions secret and wait for my news? If I still don't get everyone's approval by tomorrow morning, then you can cancel my request."

"Well, since Fanbo has said so, I can only agree temporarily... Having said that, Fanbo, you don't have to bother with this matter. The teacher agrees with your idea. No matter which student tries to contact me, I will never disclose these test questions and answers."

"Thank you, Mr. Hoshinomiya. Now I can face the exam with peace of mind."

"......"

In this way, he would not be able to see the test questions either before or after Fanbo obtained consent.

Fan Bo's preparations were foolproof.

"But let me say one more thing. You have no choice but to use this method to block the information. We can't continue like this."

"I, I will try my best."

"That's why I said, the sooner you win, the better. If you can't hold people's hearts early, it will be very painful to be snatched away by others later."
