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

If you decide not to participate, you can just leave here and there will be no points deducted.

In other words, even if you take test and fail to find QR code or answer the questions, you will still receive a consolation prize and your maximum loss will be 10,000 points.

In the end, only 10 students chose to leave.

90% of these students are relatively stupid.

They probably think we are not good at anything and will not be able to solve the questions, so they may lose another 10,000 points, so choose to give up.

However, they didn’t know that QR code displayed questions but did not force them to answer it themselves.

“Hikigaya.”

Ryuen had already begun to order his men to go to a corner and prepare to discuss a strategy.

It was obvious that dragon boy was interested in exam.

But it is impossible that he would be swayed by reward of only 100 class evaluation points, nor would he be swayed by millions of personal points.

But... because there are a lot of poor students in class.

Ryuen himself is also a scumbag, has a quota for exemption from expulsion, which has not been used yet, and he also has more than 20 million personal points.

So he can be redeemed twice.

Since you can get extra points in the written test, why waste title or money?

For this exam, obtaining multiple private points of more than 500,000 is the auxiliary goal.

The real is buffs of 50 all-subject written tests +5 points and 50 all-subject written tests +10 points.

“I’ll give you the command.”

”Oh?” Ryuen was a little surprised.

Because there is still some benefit in doing well in exam, at least you can be sure to get the reward of a written exam score buff.

“I used my brain too much before. I want to take a break, you know how my maths scores are....”

In fact, he discovered there were too many poor students in class, so he had to make some compromises.

As a result, although he would not lose money, would not make much profit either, so Hikigaya chose to give way.

“.....” Ryuen was speechless, “Then you go and get close to Sakayanagi. I have already discovered restrictions and cheating schemes for this written exam.”

As expected of Ryuen.

The first thing he did was to cheat.

“Each student can scan four QR codes. After scanning, questions will appear. Only when you answer correctly will the rewards you can get be displayed. And one person can only receive one. Once you encounter a question and you can’t answer it, you can only watch. So, I want you to approach Sakayanagi and ask her to solve the questions.”

This solution is indeed a cheating scheme for this exam.

This is also a bug.

You have to answer correctly to see the reward, so...just hug people’s thighs.

But who is so awesome to answer correctly? Just find a genius.

Sakayanagi is already recognized.

In written test last month, she was the only one in grade to get a perfect score.

You have to know that content was beyond the syllabus and included university type questions.

This is something that Ryuen really recognizes her for.

Then, if there is a super academic master in charge, arrange a tool person to scan QR code, take a picture of the question, and then let her solve it, so that you can immediately confirm whether this QR code is worth collecting.

Because there are 425 in total.

There are only 158 truly valuable ones, and rest are just some rubbish just to make up the numbers.

But, Hikigaya-kun shook his head, “She’ll definitely want a 50-50 split, even want to make some profit. So our class will lose money if we do this. It’s not cost-effective to cooperate with Sakayanagi.”

“But, if it’s you. Sakayanagi-san will give 55, right?” At this time, even cute silver-haired Hiyori-san looked over.

’Hello, hello, hello. What are you looking at? It’s as if Sakayanagi has a special preference for me!’

“That’s how she does business,” Hikigaya-kun said righteously, with a straight face, “Even I can’t sway her.”

“....” X2

Ryuen and Hiyori glanced at him with disbelieving eyes.

But it happened quickly.

Since this approach was blocked, Ryuen came up with a new plan, “Then let’s choose to join forces with Ichinose’s class.”

Hikigaya heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Ryuen say that.

Because this is plan he wants to promote.

“Ichinose’s class? I think it’s okay.” Hachiman had no objection to the proposal.

Ryuen should be bullying weak and fearing the strong. He feel that Ichinose’s class is easy to handle and requires little effort.

As for Hachiman, after he knew about Uninhabited island exam, Archangel Ichinose fell behind again.

Mr. Tsukishiro said that he would resign and leave next month.

But he always felt this person would definitely do something big before leaving.

If there was another compulsory withdrawal exam, Ichinose’s class wouldn’t have much savings now, so they might have to send money.

Hikigaya-kun is only willing to lend money to people he thinks have potential, or to his marriage partner.

’Rather than just being a saint. Ichinose-san, you should grow up. If you want your classmates not to drop out, you have to focus more on money and develop into a class like Horikita Manabu.’

The students only had half an hour to make their choice, and all students in Ryuen’s class had already chosen to participate in Treasure hunt game and were waiting for arrangements.

After all.

In this class, according to evaluation of academic ability, there are only 5 people with a B- or above, and only Hiyori has an academic ability of A.

Most students are in C or D range.

According to assignment of the written partner test last month, Ryuen deceived 25 first-year students to form a team for poor in the class.

Therefore, number of people who need to get +10 points or +5 points in all subjects in this treasure hunt game is about 20-25.

There is a large number. It is also closely related to oneself, needs to be integrated.

The students from Ryuen’s class stepped aside.

Then everyone saw Ishizaki running back panting, with two students following behind him.

A man and a woman.

Kanzaki-kun and Ichinose-san.

Come to think of it, this was first time boy saw her on the ship.

“Hachiman,” Ichinose seemed a little surprised, as if trying to control her emotions deep inside, and not feel nervous.

“Ichinose.”

Both sides greeted each other.

“....” Ryuen stared at this bastard with a disgusted look on face, “Stop flirting and come over to discuss the direction of cooperation. Time waits for no one.”

“…..” Ichinose blushed instantly, but Kanzaki-kun didn’t look away. As the vice-class monitor of her class, he was a person who understood Ichinose quite well, and he also knew that she was greatly influenced by Hikigaya-kun.

And during rumor incident last year, Hikigaya-kun also joined their class group.

Although he left later.

But anyone with a discerning eye will notice that relationship between Ichinose and Hikigaya seems to be getting better.

Occasionally, classmates would see Ichinose going to Hikigaya-kun’s room on weekends.

So some students in class were speculating whether two were already dating from behind.

However, Kanzaki thinks that she should concentrate on class competition while studying.

But if Ichinose-san could bring Hikigaya-kun to their class, it would actually be a very beneficial thing.

Rather, this time during uninhabited island exam, we saw active presence of Hikigaya Hachiman again.

If they could gather enough points to buy other party, then reward of 500 class evaluation points that Hikigaya-kun brought in would have belong to their class.

In the end they got nothing.

“This exam.” Although he was teased, Hikigaya-kun’s face was getting closer to President Sakayanagi’s on campus.

Have been able to keep composure.

“I suggest that our class form an alliance with you. Let’s deal with this together. As you all know, total of the evaluation scores is only 100 points. It doesn’t seem like much. But you can still look forward to private points, and your class doesn’t have many right now, Ichinose.” Hikigaya-kun was right about that.

Kanzaki can verify it.

Because he only has 4 million personal points that have just been accumulated.

If another withdrawal exam requires 20 million, then class may not be able to hold on.

“….” Shiina Hiyori, on the other hand, was looking at Ichinose-san and Hikigaya-kun with interest.

She is friends with both of them.

’And I also want to know where their progress is, and... who is Hikigaya-kun’s soulmate... or is it like the one I met before... as long as they meet requirements and can support him, it can be anyone. But if that’s case, that’s too pessimistic, Hikigaya-kun.’

Shiina-san actually hopes to fall in love first and then get married, which is the opposite of Hikigaya-kun’s philosophy.
