COTE: A Man On A Mission || Love is War?

“• •” Kushida-chan was noticing.

But Hachiman was thinking about something else.

It was not a secret that Hachiman had teamed up with other classes to blackmail the girls in Class B of 3rd grade, and group that had person in charge came in last place.

Because Sakura was inside, she and Haruka had talked about this, and others were not silenced by him, so she told the others.

Hirata had mentioned this matter just now on bus, saying class cooperated with 3rd-year students’ actions, Karuizawa and Sakura’s group gave up the exam.

However, some students wondered why their class had to give up, because they had paid fees to Class D.

In the end, they were deducted so many points.

At the same time, everyone has to contribute 100,000 personal points!

It was just that under Hirata’s persuasion, even if they didn’t cooperate, there would be a group that would fall behind, so everyone had a chance.

So people just stopped discussing it.

Actually, for the 1st-year Class B, what Hikigaya did was a bit off-base.

That is, he can give compensation to Class C and Class D of Grade 3 for the entire class, so why not fight for his own class?

The reason why Ichinose, who is in Class A of the first grade, cooperated with so she makes Class A safe.

Could keep their position even if they lost some points.

Valuable.

Only Class 1-B gained nothing!

For skipping an exam, each person paid 100,000 points, and then was deducted 100 CP!

In theory, should be compensation.

But unfortunately, Hachiman doesn’t really like this class.

It’s hard to have only one person talking.

Therefore, there is no need to continue fighting for it.

However, now that mission was accomplished, Hachiman began to share the money.

In this plan, Kushida-chan contacted 3rd-year students and it worked.

Hikigaya-kun generously gave the other party 1 million.

As for Suzune, since being the one that had cheated her brother, Hachiman also gave her 1 million yen in consolation money.

As for Karuizawa-san, she also did a good job and one should not be partial to others, so after Hachiman contacted her through message to confirm that it would not be broadcast by voice, he also transferred 1 million to her.

This time he did not collect or pay out any points from Class A of Grade 3.

It looked like he still had a loss of 3 million in his account, which seemed a bit miserable.

But people should not limit themselves to present.

He has income of Class 3-A for the next 4 months.

2254 points X 100 X 40 X 4 equals 36 million.

Plus the 15 million he has now, 1 million of which comes from Hashimoto’s good behaviour, and 1.5 from other classes every month.

Although there would be some expenses on a regular basis, by the time he graduated, it was enough to provide a bright future for 4 girls who didn’t want to work hard... no, wanted to work hard after marriage.

And of course he will be bound to the other party.

But Hikigaya-kun only thought about this idea briefly, because he didn’t want to work hard... No, it’s not easy to find so many girls who wants to support him in the future.

That’s supposed to be the case.

He didn’t expect to encounter it just one month after returning to school.

Other side.

Also on the bus.

”Eh!”

Class C, Grade 1.

Katsuragi was sitting in the front row, but he felt very sorry.

He carried a small notebook with him in which he had calculated results of this exam.

First-year

Class A (Ichinose) 1298.1 points

Class B (Horikita) 1185.7 points

Class C (Sakayanagi) 1150 points

Class D (Ry---Kaneda) 0 points

In this exam, although 14+6 is very stable, will only occupy 4 places in a total of 12 groups, including 6 groups for men and women.

Out of the four groups in Class A, only the group of 14 boys including Katsuragi gained a place.

Although it looked safe, also lost the opportunity to score.

Therefore, Katsuragi felt that he was indeed not suitable for command in this exam.

“Hashimoto, what’s wrong with you?”

Some students also noticed that the handsome classmate Masayoshi Hashimoto had a wound on his face.

It seemed like he was beaten.

”Was he beaten by students from Class D? It was Ryuen’s.”

“Even though he was no longer in charge, students in his class were still so violent....”

“I feel sorry for you, Hashimoto.”

“No, it’s okay—” Even though he said this, Hashimoto still felt glares from some of students around him.

He had no choice.

That shark Ryuen refused to give him money, and he couldn’t be found betraying the class, so he could only collect 1 million in this way and transfer it to Hikigaya.

You know, he just wanted to graduate safely in Class A.

Result is such a miserable life.

Eh.....Thinking of this, he looked in one direction.

That was Sakayanagi’s.

For this exam, she didn’t seem to have any instructions, which made it completely incomprehensible, but there was always a feeling that Princess Sakayanagi didn’t have such a strong desire to be promoted to a higher class.

Promotion?

Sakayanagi was certainly not indifferent to this.

Because she was checking the messages from students in Grade 3, Class C.

[We have followed your prior notification and cooperated with Hikigaya Hachiman’s exam strategy.]

”Very good.” Sakayanagi typed elegantly, ”You did a good job this time. Take a rest. I will contact you again when there is a new mission.”

The class did not succeed in being promoted, but it did not suffer any points deductions and even gained 42.

It looks like a normal class, but we didn’t make it to the next, so Class C.

But Sakayanagi is not in a bad mood.

She won election of the next student council president!

When teacher informed her of the exam rules, she realized exam was not targeted at first graders, and no matter how hard a tried, would not be able to affect the overall situation.

She also confirmed it was a crucial competition for third grade.

In the last sports meet, Vice President gave up the interests of the Red Team without hesitation to recruit new members for White.

She was certain that Vice President would take action at this critical moment of 3rd-year exam.

So, after sending a truce message to Hikigaya Hachiman, she quickly contacted students in the third-year classes C and D.

’If Hikigaya-kun contacts you with a strategy or plan, just agree.’

Because she believed that Hikigaya would definitely defeat Nagumo.

And other party did it.

On bus of Grade 1 Class B.

[You did well on exam this time. I have witnessed your active performance. I hope you will accept my small gift.]

by Sakayanagi Arisu.

Hachiman looked at the message he suddenly received from....’I thought other party wanted to treat me to dinner.’

It’s just in time for dinner when get back to school.

[Your account has received 2.1 million personal points, the transferor is Arisu Sakayanagi, other party’s account is 135X.

Your account balance is 17.264 million]

Um...His points returned to 17 million.

Not only did he get back the rewards which he had given out, but even got back the 100,000 yen of protection money for Class D!

It is equivalent to getting 2254 evaluation points of Class A in Grade 3 for free.

Thinking so.

”Drop!”

Hachiman discovered that he had received two more transfers.

[Your account has received 1 million personal points. The transferor is Shiina Hiyori, other party’s account is 156X, and your account balance is xxxxxx]

[Your account has received 2.6 million personal points, the transferor is Ryuen Kakeru, other party’s account is 154X, and your account balance is 20.864 million.]

Also the debtors now started to pay him back.

“???” Kushida-chan, ’Hey, did something good happen to boss?’

“Why are you smiling? It’s creepy,” Suzune made a disgusting face.

“• •” Kushida-chan felt like slapping her own forehead.

“The bus has arrived at school. Please get off in order.”

Two hours later.

Bus stopped at the school gate.

Two cherry trees looked bare, completely lacking the magical beauty that it had when children first enrolled.

However, students did not return to dormitory immediately.

Instead, made plans and prepared to go to the shopping street later.

After all, had stayed in forest for a week and there was not even a small shop, so desire gets aroused all at once.

Some people also want to find a restaurant.

Because except for the canteen provided by school at noon, they all cooked their own meals.

How delicious could their own meals be? There were only a few types of food, so students immediately started their free activities.

However, people were required to go to gymnasium in 10 minutes before they could be dismissed.

This caused dissatisfaction.

“I almost forgot why I hate this school!”

There was a man with a deathly pale face making a self-criticism in the gymnasium.

Found a boy with golden hair standing without saying a word.

This person is also an acquaintance to second graders and a few others.

Because he is the only person in power among.

If Nagumo becomes the president he will also speak here.

But unfortunately.

He did not become the student council president, or rather, he no longer had chance to do so.

Students below had already gathered, but Nagumo not say anything.

“Nagumo Miyabi.”

A cold boy’s voice came from behind.

This is Horikita Manabu.

Current President.

Fuck-----

Held the microphone.

“I, Nagumo Miyabi, resign from position of vice president of the student council and withdraw from election for the next president....”

Said with a rather painful expression.

Because everyone knows how determined Nagumo is to become the next student council president.

For the 1st grade, he interfered with Class B and D, trying to canvass votes.

As for the second years, they all think that Nagumo is good, and as for 3rd years, he supports Class B, and will definitely vote for him.

But when he said this, all his efforts came to naught.

In other words, Nagumo failed.

This also meant that Forest examination that lasted for eight days and seven nights had come to an end.

Some people dropped out of school.

Except for Asahina from Class A who paid 20 million yen for withdrawal, the head of Class B 3rd grade and head of 1st grade had no money to pay.

Hachiman has to take action because of this.

The person in charge of 3rd grade got the IOU from Koenji and could cash it out after leaving school and going to the company he founded.

Yes, Koenji has no cash, so he can only use the interface of his chaebol and the company he founded as a channel of persuasion.

But there are also people who do not believe in his company.

That is Shiho Manabe from Class D.

According to Hiyori’s initial suggestion, 12 people from their Class D were selected to be leaders of the first-year group.

If they were unfortunately expelled, would receive 2 million points as compensation.

And now, Manabe not only received the 200,000 yen from Operation Hachiman, but also the 100,000 yen each from Hiyori and others, and 2 million yen from those who voluntarily dropped out of school.

Add to that 13,000 in her account, the amount needs to be converted into cash is 2.313 million.

The deadline for dropping out is 2 hours, and she also needs to sort out her personal belongings.

So after receiving the transfer from other party, Hachiman went to chairman’s office alone to exchange the cash.

After completed, wait for the other party at the school gate.

It’s a delicate mood.

Manabe is not an acquaintance.

But she is not a stranger either.

She is a hot girl from Class D who was met by Hachiman on his way to dig out Karuizawa, loyal dog...

No, he was meeting Karuizawa, the assistant.

If they hadn’t been picking on Karuizawa, he wouldn’t have discovered true side.

“The exchange rate is 0.8. So there are 1.848 million here now,” Hachiman handed a small cloth bag to the other party.

In fact, he spent 10,000 points to buy this cloth bag.

He subsidized it himself.

However, thinking about more than 36 million points he could secure from this exam, Hikigaya-kun felt that 10,000 points were nothing special.

”Okay.” After taking it, Manabe opened the bag, her eyes shining as she looked at the cash inside.

Then she opened an envelope she had received, and took out 10 ten-thousand-yen bills from it and put them in.

”This is?”

“School gave it to me after they took away my cell phone,” Manabe said.

In other words, school provided transportation expenses.

It seems that also has humanistic care.

Otherwise, if students are kicked out, they will be penniless and how will go home?

“That’s it” After handing over, Hachiman prepared to leave.

This was Manabe’s expulsion, not his.

Now very resistant to leaving school.

After all, it was so easy to get rich in this school that he didn’t want to leave at all.

”Yeah.” Manabe also responded. After all, two of them were not familiar with each other.

”By the way—” Manabe hugged bag of money tightly, and then couldn’t help turning around, “How are you and Karuizawa doing?”

“• ×”
