Oreki Houtarou's Strength-First Classroom

[Task penalty: none]

[Task progress: 80%]

The progress has been updated.

If you want to get Ichinose's past, you can get it from her herself, or from someone who knows about it, and then... of course, you can also get it from the person involved.

And the current progress can be improved so quickly, which shows that sister Ichinose knows everything, that is to say, she... is actually the person involved.

"It was all me who harmed my sister——" Sitting in the family restaurant, sister Ichinose gave a tangled beginning.

Honami Ichinose is from a single-parent family.

The father borrowed money from a loan shark and ran away, leaving his wife alone to take care of their two daughters, and then worked while paying off the debt.

So life is hard.

But they are also happy despite hardships.

Mother works very hard.

As for her elder sister, Honami Ichinose, when she was in junior high school, her grades were always first, so she was eligible for free tuition.

but.

Such an excellent sister made a mistake because of her reasons.

From then on, my sister closed herself off and used suspension from school as self-punishment.

I finally got the opportunity to go to Ikusei High School. My sister said it was a new beginning, but as a result, my sister still wanted to drop out of school——

From the perspective of Ichinose's sister, it was all her fault.

But Oreki-san already understood Ichinose Honami’s deepest secret.

…

Monday.

Today is November 17th.

There are still 10 days until the exam on the 27th, and as a student in Class A, the pattern is still the same as last month.

Study on your own and then attend study sessions.

Everything seems very disciplined.

As a student in Class A, basic hardware is standard, so everyone will improve themselves without a whip.

This class atmosphere makes people feel relaxed.

but.

"Is it so difficult to choose?" came the voice of a cute girl sitting next to me.

This is Sakayanagi-san sitting next to me.

And she said, "About Ichinose's reply."

Um.

When Oreki came to the classroom, he received a message from Ichinose Honami.

The content of the letter is also very direct.

[Oreki-kun, I’m ready to drop out of school. However, the classmates in the class may not be able to accept it, so I hope you can help. ]

[Thank you very much, although I don’t know when this favor will be repaid. ]

[But I will always remember] by Honami Ichinose.

Because I'm sitting next door.

At the same time, Oreki-san didn’t have any special cover, so Itayagi could see it.

only.

"I'm thinking about something." Oreki-san said.

"Um?"

"That is whether Ichinose-san needs to stay in school." Oreki said.

"Oh." After hearing this information, Sakayanagi Yusu put down the eraser. "If it's my personal opinion, I think Ichinose-san is not suitable for this school."

Yes, it is.

This is a classroom where strength comes first, and strength, like that of Horikita-nii, is strength, but it cannot be absolutely kind.

Therefore, a perfect personality like Ichinose is not suitable in this school.

If you can't hurt others, you can't catch up.

Outside, Ichinose would be a very trustworthy student, but in this school, he could only get beaten.

From this perspective, she is indeed not suitable to stay here.

"But." Sakayanagi Yusu added. "If Ichinose stays, it will be good for our class."

In other words, from the perspective of Class A, if Ichinose is left behind, Class B will continue to maintain the true form of the Virgin.

As long as Ichinose doesn't fall, Class B won't be able to charge forward.

It is very convenient for Class A.

Otherwise, the two classes would be anxious, and it would be the kind of state where Class B needs to be alert from time to time to see if Ryuuen and the others in Class C are up to something again, and then become extremely nervous.

It will cause mental stress to skyrocket.

"It's just." Sakayanagi-san said again. "A little bit regretful."

She stood up from her seat, held the edge of the table and came to Oreki-san.

She has a faint milky fragrance on her body, and when she gets close, it makes people feel a little shaken.

But Sakayanagi-san didn’t deliberately make herself smell good just for this reason today.

She approached Oreki-san and put her left hand on Oreki's right wrist holding the phone.

Her fingers carried a little warmth, and the warmth that belonged to her was transferred over.

But her attention was focused on Oreki-san's phone screen.

"I didn't expect that she would eventually choose to drop out of school," Sakayanagi said. "But it might be better for her to leave Yucheng High School. Schools outside are more suitable for her."

In the previous incident with Horikita, Ryuji said that she felt that Ichinose might be attacked.

So I gave Ichinose-san an early warning about Horikita-san.

And Ichinose also noticed that she was being attacked, but... she chose to withdraw from the plan.

This result made Sakayanagi sigh.

Because there is a Kamuro-san in Sakayanagi who is in a similar situation.

Sakayanagi knew.

Once Kamuro-kun's weakness is exposed, Class A will also be attacked.

As for Ichinose, although it is not clear what Ichinose's weakness is, Ichinose's problem is probably no smaller than Kamuro-san's.

And Ichinose's identity is very unique. He is the representative of Class B and works part-time in the bank.

Keeps the huge points of the students in the class.

So once she is attacked, Class B will become very passive.

With this in mind, Ichinose's choice was... to quit on his own.

Although it is not the best plan, it can protect Class B to the maximum extent, and then...if Ichinose leaves, then Class B may change its strategy and may become more aggressive.

And Ichinose probably hoped that his departure would make some difference, so he wanted him to assist.

Otherwise, if she voluntarily drops out of school and the morale of Class B plummets, the students in Class B may also evolve into second-year salty fish.

These are things that can be seen.

only.

Oreki had to raise a question mark when Itayagi-san said that Ichinose was not suitable for this school and would be more suitable for other schools after leaving this school.

because.

It is true that Ichinose is not suitable for this school, but there are actually advantages to being in Ikusei High School.

Yucheng High School offers free tuition and living expenses. You can even earn living expenses and accumulate points that can be converted into cash when you graduate.

These are the advantages of this school.

It was also the reason why those people were assigned to Class D and were unwilling to drop out of school even if they couldn't get living expenses.

Ichinose's family is relatively poor.

When she met Sister Ichinose, she was also muttering that her grades were not good enough to study for free.

That is to say.

Her family is short of money.

And what can Ichinose do after dropping out of school?

It is basically impossible to enter a higher education.

There is no tuition fee.

And my sister also needs to continue her education.

And with Ichinose's level of understanding, he probably went to work part-time after dropping out of school.

High school students can start working part-time at will.

And if you don't go to college and work, you won't get any feedback in terms of salary.

Only cheap and hard work.

But my sister will definitely be asked to continue studying, and then... probably shoulder her sister's hopes, and then rush forward.

As the older sister, she shoulders the responsibilities of the family.

As a younger sister, I bear the pressure of my older sister giving up on life.

As a mother, she cannot even protect her children while paying off debts.

Putting it into perspective, I instantly felt... my head was extremely big.

There is no hope for this family.

"I probably have different ideas," Oreki-san said.

"Maybe it's my own selfishness."

"I think Ichinose needs to stay in school."

"After all, three years of closed study is a long time, and there are special exams every month, which is a headache, so it would be nice to have an angel to heal me at this time."

"Oh. That's right." Sakayanagi Yusu nodded. "But you also know that if Ichinose-san has made up his mind to drop out of school, it will be difficult to come back."

"Yeah." One person responded.

And this person was Kamuro-san sitting behind the two of them.

"I don't want Ichinose-san to drop out of school either." by Masumi Kamuro.

Kamuro-san doesn’t have many friends in school, and only angels like Kushida or Ichinose would talk to her.

Although he is usually cold and aloof.

But in the eyes of Kamuro-kun, she thinks Ichinose is a good person.

So, when he found out that Ichinose-san actually wanted to drop out of school, Kamuro-san also expressed his opinion.

"If you all agree." Oreki-san paused, "then proceed with Ichinose's plan to prevent him from dropping out."

"What should we do?" Sakayanagi asked, "Although she is kind, she has a very hard part in her heart."

This is Sakayanagi's understanding of Ichinose.

At the same time, I also found it difficult to sway Ichinose.
