Oreki Houtarou's Strength-First Classroom

Megumi's academic ability has improved, but it is definitely not enough to represent the class.

To be precise, this strategy is Tian Ji's horse racing.

Horikita's strategy is to use inferior horses to consume Class A's superior horses with strong academic abilities when competing against the academic abilities of Class A, and then regain the points in the next academic comparison.

Karuizawa's reaction was also very direct.

yes.

Since it had nothing to do with their class, the two of them had dinner, watched a movie together and played for a while before they separated.

…

in this way.

Four classes.

Each class trains for its own assigned event.

Although he had seen the result of the duel between Class A and Class D, Oreki had always known that Itayagi-san in his own class wanted to target Horikita-san.

And I'm afraid.

After this exam, Sakayanagi-san will attack him.

This kind of thing...he was also under a lot of pressure.

Then it was directly reflected on the chessboard.

"I can't stand anymore!"

It is now the 19th, and Horikita Suzune is learning chess from him as usual.

but.

"I can't stand anymore!"

Today, Horikita Suzune seems to lose confidence quite easily.

He even kept retreating.

"Sorry, sorry." Oreki-san said, "The closer the exam comes, the more stressed I feel."

"Because you're under a lot of pressure, so you play chess to torture me?" Suzune quickly grabbed the wrist of his left hand as he was rearranging the chessboard.

Look over with sharp eyes.

"My chess game was taught by Sakayanagi Arisu," Oreki-san said. "You are influenced by what you hear and see, so you strike later. This way you can become stronger quickly."

"And Horikita, you don't want to lose so miserably during the live broadcast," Oreki said.

"..." Ringtone.

Horikita-san fell silent for a moment.

This is the state of being grasped.

Yes.

My brother is about to graduate, and this time the command tower exam will be broadcast live.

If you want to see it, you can see it.

If it were another project, if she used a data panel to display her data, the data wouldn't be bad.

However, there is no event where students from Class A can definitely win.

Therefore, she obediently chose to be the chess player of Class D.

The reason is that Oreki-san said that chess is Sakayanagi Arisu's favorite chess, and it is probably the occasion where the other party will take it seriously.

So you need to show your strength here.

"So……"

"Let's have another round." Horikita Suzune said, "The day after tomorrow is the day of duel. I will improve myself."

Then do it obediently and look awe-inspiring.

in this way.

That night, Horikita Suzune lost another 10 games.

This made her reluctant to continue playing chess the next day, and Oreki-san had no choice but to let her do it.

In fact, it was time to recite and lose too many times, suppressing her for too long, and then let her start to play freely and work hard to find a victory.

in this way.

On the 20th, Oreki-san gave Horikita Suzune a day off.

And he himself took the books she borrowed but didn't want to go out to the library to return them.

Chapter 189 The duel begins with each other and the final decisive battle!

"Beep! Student card!"

After arriving at the library, Oreki-san went to the administrator with ease and returned all the books Horikita borrowed.

But he didn't leave immediately.

Because I found a beautiful girl with silver-white hair staying in the same place.

Drinking tea from an open thermos cup.

Judging from the color of the tea, it probably contains wolfberry and chrysanthemum tea.

Very healthy and at the same time very relaxing.

"You are really laid-back," Oreki-san said.

"How can I compare to you?" Hiyori-san quickly stood up. "Oreki-san is probably the only student in Class A who can be so laid-back."

This is true.

Because Class A has prepared 10 corresponding projects, and only 5 of them are confirmed.

Then we also arranged for people to do corresponding training for the 10 items listed by Class D. After all, Horikita-san did not tell everyone which 5 items were tested this time.

So even if there are a bunch of spies in Class D, but they were not informed of the information at the beginning, the spies in Class D would not be able to pass it on.

As for Class A, I still have to show off my basic ability to handle everything.

So everyone is quite busy. Only Oreki-san is so laid-back.

There was no event that Sakayanagi required him to participate in.

According to Sakayanagi. If even Oreki-san had to play, then it would be really shameful for us as Class A.

But it’s not good to be too conceited, so I hope Oreki-san can play the role of a rescuer.

Rescue = trump card.

In this way, since Oreki-san still has a [heavy responsibility] on his shoulders, even if he doesn't participate in training, there is no one to blame.

In this way, he had a lot of time to train Horikita Suzune. From this point on, I still have to thank Banliu.

"But since I met you today, please help me." Hiyori said. "Get the book for me."

Oreki-san read books like crazy for a while because of the incident involving Dai Ichinose.

And this time is finally free.

And today, in order to ease Horikita-san’s mood, I returned the book for him.

So Oreki-san probably reads with a purpose, but Shiina-san is different.

You can often meet her here.

So, even though I have Hiyori’s mobile number, if I want to contact each other, all I have to do is go here.

After contacting him, Oreki discovered that Hiyori liked reading more than he thought. She often carried a big schoolbag, but it was not textbooks, but various books borrowed from the library.

And do you want to read a book today?

Hiyori wasn't tall enough, so Oreki came to the bookshelf and took down the book she wanted to take.

[Quantum mechanics]

profound.

After a brief glance, Oreki-san lost interest.

"So, even though the decisive battle will begin soon, you are still reading these books so leisurely. Does that mean you feel at ease?"

"Please don't make fun of me. I just don't want to waste my efforts on test results that won't change." Hiyori said.

In other words, this is indeed the case.

Class C and Class B fight.

Ryuuen and the others tried to arrange for someone to deliberately harass Ichinose and the others to make the students in Class B more vigilant.

In this case, it's just a cover-up. The real purpose is to make Class B hostile and pay attention to them, but this will make them lax about their internal weaknesses.

In other words, Ryuuen wanted to find a spy in Class B, and then let the spy target the students in Class B.

But there are problems with this strategy.

That is, if the spy cannot be found, nothing can be done. If you can only go up according to your true ability, then Class C will be crushed by Class B.

Judging from Hiyori's condition, the spy was indeed not found.

"I slightly withdraw my opinion of Class B," Hiyori said. “The unity of this class is also first-rate.”

"Then do you want to change your mood?" Oreki-san said.

"For example, let's play the next game."

Oreki took out the small chessboard he carried with him and placed it on the table beside him.

"Okay." Hiyori nodded, "But I'm a little accomplished at chess, so don't cry later. Thank you Oreki-san for taking care of my mood."

"Well, I think so too, please be merciful." Oreki remained elegant.

Then twenty minutes later.

"Isn't it nice to read?"

After Hiyori-san lost three times in a row, he threw the chess piece into the trash can. "My recommendation today is this. [David Copperfield]. A literary masterpiece, but the male protagonist has two wives, two !”

…

At this point, the painful time finally came on the 21st.

It’s the day when the first-year students, Class A and Class D, will compete against each other, and Class B and Class C.

Generally speaking, the rules of the command tower exam are quite extensive, but in reality, two classes each select a command tower, and then the students are used as chess pieces to arrange command and control.

Only the final victory is victory.

In addition to the participating students, ordinary students can stay in the class. As expected, the equipped projectors will project live broadcasts of the competition.

The students stayed in the class, waiting for the instructions to be arranged, and set off according to the schedule.

The five required test items for Class A have been decided, namely chess, abacus mental arithmetic, English test, social science test, and mathematics test.

Then it has been submitted.

"Then, I'll set off." The silver-haired girl sitting next to Oreki-san held her cane and stood up.

As the commander, she is going to the special classroom.

"But it's a little bit regretful." Sakayanagi-san sighed, "Because we are in the same class. Although this is a good thing, it is also a pity because we can't compete with Oreki-san."

In other words, she was completely unmotivated for this exam.

This is true.

Judging from the five must-test items, only chess and abacus are suitable for intervention by Banliu, the command tower.

Among them, abacus and mental arithmetic can only participate in one of the 15 questions, which is almost equivalent to watching the competition in vain.

However, Oreki-san feels that Sakayanagi does not need to be discouraged.

Because he also arranged for Horikita-san from Class D to play against her at her favorite chess game.
