The bell for the end of get out of class rang impatiently with Big Ben as the background, and Ichinose left quickly after saying hello to me.

The destination of her trip was the Special Teaching Building, which was also the execution site of the Horikita Plan.

I picked up my cross-body bag and decided to leave in the opposite direction.

"Are you leaving so early today, Luo?" The three Okabes lazily lay on the table and chairs, looking at me with puzzled eyes.

"Yeah, I'm a little tired. I'd better go to bed early today."

"You didn't see Ichinose's hurried footsteps and wanted to follow him, did you?"

"Why would I do this? I'll be considered a pervert."

"If you want, we don't mind."

"......You guys are really disgusting."

"You are such a boring man, disgusting and all that. You are such a heartless person."

"I would also feel hurt if I were considered a pervert, so forget about this kind of joke."

"Hey, you're not coming to the party tonight either?"

"Okabe's room? Forget it. Those games look really hard to play."

“I haven’t even tried it…”

"Sorry, I feel really tired today. If you want to complain, maybe next time. I'm leaving now." After saying that, I waved casually behind me.

"See you tomorrow."

That's right, I have no intention of joining the plan. The destination of this trip will be directly to the first-year dormitory room 301. I don't join the plan not because I'm lazy, but because there is no need. In other words, if I also implement the plan, it may make the event even more chaotic.

It's quite far from the first-year dormitory, so I'll discuss Horikita's plan on the way.

Until the end of the meeting yesterday, our thoughts were still on proving Sudo's innocence with evidence that the C-class members were the first to attack. In fact, even if such evidence was found, both sides would still suffer losses and that would also represent Horikita's failure.

However, Horikita's plan is different. Her plan aims to make the students in Class C withdraw their lawsuit. This will completely eliminate the disadvantages for Sudo and win the competition. To this end, making the students in Class C feel guilty and admit their mistakes has become the key point of this plan, and all subsequent actions will revolve around this struggle.

After the meeting yesterday, Horikita borrowed a large amount of points from Ichinose, the leader of our Class B. The reason for this was to purchase enough monitors and circuit boards to be placed in the special teaching building, so that the entire process of the incident could be recorded. This process must be completed before school is over today.

Then we used the popularity of Class D's goddess, Kikyo Kushida, to lure the plaintiff from Class C out on a date, which was scheduled for about ten minutes before the meeting, which was 3:50. Don't worry that they won't take the bait, as Kanzaki said, boys of this age are like monkeys in estrus in a zoo. In addition, the choice of time is crucial, because the plan must be executed when the other party cannot catch their breath.

After that, we just need to believe that the school is fully aware of the whole situation of this dispute, and then we can reason with them and break their minds. We will randomly bring them to the meeting room and let them choose to withdraw the lawsuit.

Well, does this plan sound stupid?

Let's talk about the surveillance camera first. The three Ishizakis from Class C dared to provoke Sudo first, which means they have already confirmed that there is absolutely no surveillance camera in that location on the third floor. This lie can be easily exposed.

At the same time, since the school already knows the whole story of the incident, why should it delay the trial to give Class D time to find evidence?

With only these two points in mind, our plan would appear extremely ridiculous and stupid.

To state the truth in the face of the truth is folly.

But is the truth really so absurd?

Chapter 35 On the Importance of the Existence of Spiritual Support

[Ayanokouji Kiyotaka’s perspective]

Herd mentality.

It refers to the fact that an individual is influenced by the behavior of the outside crowd and thus changes his or her own thoughts or behaviors. On this basis, scholars apply this change and give birth to a thinking idea called "quasi-herd mentality" in various aspects.

It contains an important rule - [information pressure].

The problem with monitors can be easily controlled by the herd mentality.

If we only install one surveillance camera at the 'crime scene', the other party will think we are committing fraud, but if more than one surveillance camera is installed and unrelated areas are also installed, then things will become wrong. Add to that the information pressure from Ichinose, Ayanokouji and the school's assumption that this premise is a precondition, and Ishizaki and the other two will begin to doubt the correctness of their hearts.

This situation can be seen everywhere in daily life and almost everyone has experienced it.

Try to think back to your school days. Have you ever had the experience of being questioned by a teacher after you answered a question clearly and affirmatively?

"sure?"

This is a common tactic used by teachers, and it is just a simple question.

However, the fear and doubt built up in this sentence far exceeded the information contained in the question itself. The words that Ayanokouji and Ichinose used to attack each other were also full of this power.

In addition, the third floor of the special teaching building is where the staff office and science classroom are located, and it is also the storage place for valuables and chemicals. This also provides a reasonable premise for the existence of surveillance cameras.

Perhaps you think that such a one-sided psychological attack is not enough to break down a person's psychological defenses? In fact, as you said, if it were only this level, the human heart would not be said to be so unfathomable.

But our goal is not to defeat them, but to cause chaos.

The ground can absorb solar thermal radiation and then conduct it to the air through radiation, convection, turbulence, etc. In the area where we are located, from 2 to 3 pm, although the sun is setting in the west, the altitude angle is still very large, which means that the heat stored on the ground at this time is still greater than the heat released. After this period of time, that is, when the plan is implemented, the ground will release a lot of heat, causing the temperature to rise to the peak of the day.

Closed windows and corridors, continuous sunlight, heat release from the ground...

In a hot and uncomfortable environment, the human brain will be overloaded even if it is just simple thinking, let alone this kind of deep thinking and reasoning.

The anxiety between certainty and uncertainty lingers back and forth in the load.

How many people can think accurately?

As for the school's delay, it can be easily explained away by saying that they want to test the students' ability to resolve disputes on their own.

From the moment they began to suspect the existence of the surveillance cameras, they had already fallen into our trap.

Does this sound stupid to you?

I stopped at a vending machine on the street, thinking about whether to buy a bottle of coffee to taste the bitter taste. At this time, a female student hurriedly passed by me, holding a bundle of information and letters in her arms. I stared at the figure for a while, until she disappeared around the corner, I remembered that there was a fatal flaw in my plan.

I have mentioned this flaw before, which is the existence of spiritual support.

"If you do something like this, you will be expelled from school. Is this okay?"

Under Ichinose's coercive words, Ishizaki and the other two were unable to even realize the depths of their predicament.

The victory or defeat has been decided——

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you talking about with my classmates?"

"Ryu, Ryuen--!" In despair, Ishizaki and the other two looked at the man with such reckless behavior as if they saw a light in the darkness.

Dragon Garden?

"Oh my, I didn't expect this. I didn't expect that Ichinose, who has always been a friendly person, would bring an unknown little character to threaten the students in our class." The man stood in front of us with a sarcastic smile, protecting the three people behind him.

"Ryuuen, it turns out you're the one behind this. You were the one who caused trouble for the students in Class B earlier."

"Huh? I don't remember ever causing trouble for students in Class B. Besides, this time the students in Class D beat up the students in Class C. I didn't expect you to stand on the side of the guilty. Is your apparent kindness really a lie?"

"You guys are obviously lying about this dispute, aren't you still refusing to admit it? The school—"

"Stop, stop, stop." Long Yuan shook his head impatiently, "I will not be threatened by you and admit the fact that I am wrong. I will not be stupid enough to be bullied by you. Right, I am talking to you guys."

"........."

Is he the source of the violence?

"Threat? You ordered Ishizaki and the others to deliberately call Sudo out for a fake fight, and then the bad guys filed a complaint first. Isn't that true?"

"You really have no sense of shame, Ichinose. Do you still want to threaten us after all this? Since it's your fault, we won't let others bully us."

The logic of thinking is very clear, so it is unlikely that the lawsuit will be withdrawn.

"Threat? These are all said voluntarily by your classmates. I have the recording here." Ichinose took out his cell phone from his pocket and waved it in front of them.

Except for Long Yuan, the other three people began to panic.

"Is compromise under threat also valuable? I don't admit what we said before. If you want to use the recording in your hand as evidence, then just take it. Who knows if you have dealt with it in any way?"

"you--"

"I'm sorry, Ichinose. Your plan is no longer effective. I won't compromise with you. Besides--"

"I don't remember asking you to accept an appointment at this time." Long Yuan glared at the three people angrily, "I should have told you that we are definitely victorious in this accusation. Go back now!"

"I, we'll go right away." Under Ryuen's roar, Ishizaki and the other two fled.

"Wait!" Ichinose tried to stop the three people with words, but was stopped by Ryuen with a smile.

"What a pity, Ichinose. Your plan was just a little bit away from success."

"It turns out you are the one behind this. Why are you here at this time?"

"Thanks to you, I was originally planning to rest in the dormitory and wait for the results. But I didn't expect our class teacher to inform me that the three students who were attending the meeting were missing. Fortunately, the notification came in time."

"What a pity, Ichinose. But I really didn't expect you to resort to such despicable means. I think the rabbit that poses no threat at all is more suitable for you. If you really have this ability, I will give you a good fight next time."

After saying that, the student named Ryuen left the special teaching building without looking back, leaving Ichinose and I staring at each other in bewilderment.

Chapter 36: It turns out that I am a tool controlled by a twisted personality.

Material civilization is highly developed, people's living standards are constantly improving, many social welfare benefits have emerged, and people's happiness index has increased exponentially. The country's political system is sound, the legal system is perfect, the social and national cultural quality is improving, and the environment is also slowly changing...

Realities in many aspects bear witness to the progress of society.

At the same time, we grow up in the dark, and human nature gradually becomes distorted. Distorted personalities degrade society, and sick cities become abnormal personalities.

Therefore, society is not dark, and human nature is not pathological.

What is truly distorted is only your perception.

After hanging up the phone, I drank the coffee I bought not long ago in one gulp, threw it accurately into the trash can on the street, and started walking towards the dormitory again.

However, before I took a few steps forward, the phone in my pocket vibrated again.

"Hello." I immediately picked up the call from Ichinose, but there was no response from the other end for a long time.

So I waited quietly in silence, thinking that there was something wrong with my cell phone signal.

"Is Luojun free now?"

The signal is normal.

"I'm usually very busy, either going to bed or going to--" I was going to make a joke, but the atmosphere on the phone was depressing. "......What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"The result seems to be a little different from what we imagined... Where is Luo Jun now?"

"It looks like the meeting is about to start. Are you sure you still need my help?"

"Could you please come over? I've also contacted Kanzaki-san."

"Is that the special teaching building, or the conference room?"

"Special teaching building...If possible, please come over here, Mr. Luo."

"I understand. I'll be right there." I hung up the phone.

15:59

The time is prominently displayed in the center of the phone screen.

There is no time left, so what can I do?

Seriously, I was almost able to put down the cross-body bag on my shoulder.

Looking at the dormitory building that was jagged in front of me, I sighed deeply.

In the sweltering heat of mid-July, jumping back and forth was not an option.

Well, I'm already despairing of August. Why on earth do humans need to face extreme temperatures of weird weather?

"fall."

I just poked my head out of the staircase when Kanzaki waved at me and Ichinose looked over at me.

"So, what happened?" I asked with the attitude of resolving necessary matters as quickly as possible, but the bitter smile on Ichinose's face made me realize that the situation was not normal.

"The plan failed."

".......They can think rationally even in such hot weather? That's amazing."

It is not shameful to lose to such an opponent. It can only be said that their willpower is too strong.

"No, that's not it. The reason for the failure was something else."
