Oreki Houtarou's Strength-First Classroom

So he will take action.

And Oreki-san is actually...well.

In fact, he was waiting for Nagumo-senpai to take action.

Because of Horikita's brother's identity, he has always been embarrassed to directly take away the points of the third grade. But now, it is better to say that he is very grateful to Nagumo-senpai for taking action and making these arrangements. As a result, the small goal of 100 million is about to be eliminated. Half done.

[Main mission-Earn 100 million in 300 days. ]

[Task time limit: 230 days]

[Task requirement: In 300 days, extract 50 million from senior students and 50 million from freshmen. ]

[Task reward: soul out of body]

[Mission punishment: Kushida will be rubbed by Ichika Amasawa]

[Task progress: 99%+50%]

The progress of the tasks extracted from the senior class reached 99%, and Oreki thought it would be over when the points were collected.

So now there is only one step left to collect money.

So, he headed to the third graders' team.

"..."

The students in Class B of the third grade seemed to have changed their mood greatly after hearing Mr. Majima's announcement.

It's like losing your ideals.

Then eventually, when most students left, they also chose to leave.

The students in Grade A, Class A, went to the playground after hearing the results.

At the playground, the girls were initially arranged in groups, and then they were assigned their team positions.

But now 40 students from Class A of the third grade are standing there.

Manabu Horikita seemed to be communicating with them.

When Oreki-san arrived, all the students in Class A, third grade, looked like they were facing an enemy.

And a smaller girl with purple hair and a bun trotted directly towards Oreki-san.

This is Akane Tachibana from Class A of the third grade.

The secretary of the student council, the classmate who usually follows the student council president Horikita Manabu.

One of the classmates who can help Horikita Manabu.

"Didn't you agree not to tell Horikita-san about me?" Akane Tachibana-senpai said directly to Oreki-san.

It seemed to have a slightly complaining tone.

And Horikita-san here refers to Horikita Manabu.

Um.

Oreki-san understood.

This is probably because Horikita Manabu has not prepared himself mentally for the students in the class.

The amount to be collected should have been clearly explained to the students in the class, but most people felt that... they didn't want to accept it.

Because the amount exceeded their psychological expectations.

What Tachibana Akane had more in mind was that this put a lot of pressure on Horikita Manabu.

but.

It was like Fujimaki was contacted by a third-year Class B student, and then Nagumo reported the situation to Horikita Gaku, and Horikita Gaku's statement was that he believed his classmates.

So Horikita Manabu believed in his classmates.

Then I believe that I can convince everyone to hand over the points needed for this exam.

Just Brother Horikita, are you going to collect money for him on the spot?

Probably because the amount that had to be collected was a bit too huge and exceeded the bottom line of each student, Horikita-nii lost the awe he had as the student council president for the first time.

Someone probably prompted Oreki-san to arrive, so Horikita-san also came over.

"Sorry, give me a little more time." Horikita Manabu said.

In other words, it will take some time

It's not that I may not be able to do that much, which shows that he still has a sense of trust in his class.

but.

According to Mr. Majima, everyone needs to gather and get on the bus at 4 o'clock.

It's almost three o'clock now.

And Oreki-san doesn't want to spend so much time with third graders.

so.

He took a step forward.

Oreki-san decided to collect it himself.

"I promised you back then." Oreki-san said to Akane Tachibana-senpai beside him. "I didn't reveal a word."

"But what you don't know is that I wasn't the only one who came there."

What we are talking about here is that Tachibana was crying alone in the shoe cabinet. What Tachibana Akane wanted to do at that time was to hold back and stop causing trouble to Horikita Manabu.

"Was Horikita-san... also there?" Akane Tachibana was stunned.

Probably because he discovered Oreki-senpai's persuasive intentions, Horikita-senpai began to cooperate.

"I was actually there."

"It's probably the fourth day of the exam back in the forest." Horikita Manabu said. "On the first day, Nagumo challenged me."

"As for the girls, they will form the same groups as originally planned."

"As expected, whether it's the boys or the girls, Class B of the third grade is uncooperative as usual."

"But just keeping our advantage going."

"But when I followed Oreki to the shoe cabinet."

"I found out that Tachibana Akane was being bullied." Horikita Manabu said. "Thus, it can be deduced that the non-cooperation of Class B of the third grade is to drastically shorten the gap with us in this forest examination."

"And the direction they chose is the girls' group."

After saying this, everyone's attention was focused on Ju Qian.

"Well--"

Although they were all classmates, but receiving so much attention made Tachibana feel...ashamed.

And then there's also a hint of guilt.

Because she probably thought that the reason why everyone needs to pay so many points now may be that Horikita-san saw her situation, and finally joined forces with Oreki-san to complete this exam.

And then paid such a heavy price.

However, Horikita Manabu followed Oreki all the time, and then Tachibana Akane begged Oreki not to tell Horikita Manabu about seeing her crying and being bullied, but Horikita Manabu said it directly in public.

From this perspective, Horikita Manabu may be a pretty straight man.

Let Ju Qian be publicly executed.

but.

Oreki thought it might be more than that.

Because the situation was like this, Megumi was asked by Oreki to follow Akane Tachibana.

Then if something happens to Ju Qian, then report it to him.

at the same time.

Pass the message "Please follow Oreki Houtarou" to Horikita Manabu.

So when I met Megumi in the cafeteria, Megumi had already passed the note to Horikita Manabu.

And Manabu Horikita was paying attention to him after arriving at the cafeteria.

in this way.

Only then will Oreki appear to find Tachibana Akane, and then Oreki will listen to the footsteps and talk to Tachibana Akane.

Let Horikita Manabu find out about Akane Tachibana being bullied.

Then Tachibana Akane left, and Oreki started a conversation with Horikita Manabu who appeared.

He told the other party that the supporter of Class B of the third grade was Nagumo Miyazaki, which meant that the opponent was an entire grade. Therefore, the current plan was finally drawn up. The first grade students abstained according to the arrangement and controlled the points.

Then Class A of the third grade won a great victory.

However.

Manabu Horikita is a person with a big-picture concept, and he is also a good person.

"And this time I was negligent in taking the exam," he said.

"I thought Class B, Grade 3, would fight back. But I didn't think it would be so violent."

"I just saw the situation on the boys' side and didn't carefully consider the situation on the girls' side."

"I even invited Nagumo to come over as a helper," Horikita Manabu said. "Then this deployment was made."

"And Akane Tachibana is like this, so you must be like this too." Horikita Manabu said. "They are all wronging themselves and bearing all the troubles and conflicts themselves."

This is said with everyone's situation in mind.

He got rid of the embarrassment of being singled out by Tachibana Akane, and turned her attention to everyone.

"No no no..."

"Horikita-san——"

Horikita Manabu has a talent for speaking, and although he is not giving a speech now, his classmates were immediately infected.

rather say.

They have always relied on Horikita Manabu.

And such Horikita-san carries everyone and saves everyone in special exams one after another.

Manabu Horikita is the one who works the hardest.

only.

"It's really too expensive -" a senior said.

"This time's plan doesn't require spending so many points."

"In the first-year female group, 11 students abstained, and then 2 students dropped out."

"We can bear the burden of exempting these two students from dropping out. Then everyone involved will give 500,000 points as compensation." The senior said.

As soon as the senior opened his mouth, the others looked at Oreki-san.

It seems that if we can spend a little less to count points, then everyone will not be so stressed.

In other words, the remuneration planned at the beginning will be reduced?

"Do you want to hand over a few less points?" Oreki-san took a step forward and looked at the senior who spoke to him.

This senior is an acquaintance.

It's the Fujimaki-senpai from the sports festival.

But Fujimaki was better protected by Horikita Manabu.

because.

"It seems that you, seniors, haven't figured out the situation yet," Oreki-san said. "I'm not here to ask you for points, but you need to pay for yourself."

"Have you thought about it yourself?"

"If we hadn't seen through the plan of Grade 3 Class B, what would have happened to your class?"
