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

Now 10-minute discussion period.

Koenji continued to comb her hair leisurely, even though nothing to make corrections.

The other students were a little confused.

However, many of them were hoping for the best, because maybe someone clicked wrong button.

After all, it was a manual operation, so someone would definitely make a mistake.

In particular, Koenji himself agreed to plan of exchanging Protected Quota for points.

Everyone’s mood did not become bad.

They were even discussing where to go for dinner after voting was over.

That’s supposed to be case. 10-minute discussion time is over.

Voting restarted.

“Then let me announce results of the second round of voting to expel Koenji Rokusuke. There are 35 votes in favor and 3 votes against.”

Having said this, Chabashira glanced at the dumbfounded students below.

Then she poured water even more, it’s like ice crystals pierced these rando’s hearts, “Because the whole audience disagrees, we will proceed to a 10-minute discussion session. I need to remind you there are only 57 minutes left until exam.”

That means you can vote once every 10 minutes. Each vote lasts 1 minute, so there are 5 voting... left.

Felt a little bit pressed. But time seemed to be plenty.

As long as you could finish 10-minute discussion this time and vote correctly next, it would be fine.

“…”

Hey, hey, hey, this seems a little wrong.

Because, in first vote for Koenji to drop out, it was normal to have one vote against it, maybe someone made a mistake.

But now, 3 votes against, so it shouldn’t be that 3 people have made a mistake!

“Does anyone have a different opinion?” Yukimura-kun said immediately.

Because now it has reached the stage of designated expulsion, if other ordinary students were to expel them, it might be more troublesome, but Koenji has title, so if you choose him, you will only lose Quota, and he will still be in class.

Therefore, no one will drop out.

At the same time, you can get a reward of 100+200+50=350 points!

As for Ike, he was the one who encouraged Koenji to drop out of school and then offered his protection as sacrifice.

So credit for points obtained later must be attributed to him.

Even if you don’t get any rewards, you can still feel that you have made a great contribution to class.

Then if he encounters this kind of exit exam again, Ike will not be considered for immediate exit, so he can be safe.

But now that Yukimura has stepped forward, his credit may be somewhat taken away.

Ike did not interrupt immediately.

He has a high EQ and already felt something was wrong. So let Yukimura try again.

Anyway, if nothing unexpected happens, whole class will unanimously choose Koenji next time, and the result can still be achieved.

“…”

But no one spoke.

Air seems a little dry.

“This exam is advantageous for our class. Koenji-san has a Protection Quota. So we can achieve 350 points without dropping out. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get points without getting hurt! So please don’t make a mistake!”

Yukimura begged people to listen.

However, at this moment, someone suddenly spoke to him, “Since it’s so good to have this Quota, why not try to buy it in question 3?”

The girl who took the initiative to talk to Yukimura had a golden ponytail and was the cutest girl in class.

Karuizawa Kei.

She has been a member of student council since last year, although she is just fishing in discipline committee.

However, she has been invited by both student council of senior Horikita Manabu and current president Sakayanagi.

She also did things that violated rules in class.

It was second month of school, and most people gave up on written test, and then Karuizawa took advantage of her position to cheat.

Then let everyone pass through safely.

In other words, Karuizawa-san is actually someone who cares a lot about the class.

Indeed.

If you choose to pay half of living expenses to buy a title for Koenji in question 3, then in question 5, he will give up existing protected quota first, so Koenji will not lose anything.

And you don’t have to pay Koenji 2 million points that will be awarded after the exam.

’If you want to buy a place, you have to pay. And money is not just 2 million! It is half of living expenses for half a year! This Karuizawa is just stupid!’ Yukimura saw that Koenji had received an email from school informing him of his class transfer.

In other words, Koenji actually secretly bought a ticket to Class A from school.

Going to Class A.

Then it’s people from other classes. So everyone giving points to Koenji to buy a Quota is equivalent to... aiding the enemy.

He was hesitant about whether to say it out loud.

Because even if Koenji left, had just agreed to use protective quota, so saying these words might hurt the other party’s feelings.

Yukimura even imagined that Koenji was going to leave the class, so he made a final contribution.

“At that time, we didn’t have enough points, and we weren’t sure if there would be a question about expulsion. And Koenji-san already had a Quota. If you add one more...” Yukimura began to hesitate.

Because at that time he hoped he could get Quota, but he felt that his classmates would not agree.

But there are no people who think everyone will agree to spend money.

“I think we should not waste time at this time.”

However, Yukimura did not find three people who opposed surrendering to Koenji, but at this time a student took initiative to stand up.

Black straight hair, a cool temperament, and an extremely beautiful appearance, this is Horikita Suzune, and this is also first time girl has spoken today.

“I voted against it just now.” Suzune said as usual.

Chabashira watched students’ development silently from the side.

Her knot has been untied, but these children are still facing similar choices as they did.

But look now, development of this class may be regrettable.

The current Horikita is like her, but not exactly like her.

Like her, referring to Horikita, who also opposed vote to have designated person drop out of school.

Horikita is different from her, eyes are sharp and firm.

In other words, Suzune has her own opinions and is not bound by emotions.

After a year of school, Suzune has indeed changed. However, this statement is really explosive.

Because voting is secret, and you exposed yourself by taking an action that goes against everyone else’s direction.

Do you want everyone to hate you?

“Huh?”

As expected, Horikita’s self-explosion was a bit confusing.

“Didn’t we all agree to drop out and get the points?” Yukimura didn’t understand why Suzune chose to object.

“You didn’t understand what I meant. I objected to second round of voting just now. I don’t object to the plan of dropping out a classmate to get points. But I object to plan of dropping out Koenji Rokusuke to get points. Because there’s no point in doing that,” Suzune’s words were so calm even a fool like Miyamoto could understand.

“This is meaningless, isn’t it?” Yukimura continued without giving her a face, “Koenji-san has Protection Quota. So this way no one in our class will drop out.”

“• •” Horikita glanced at Yukimura twice coldly, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. “I was one of the three votes against Koenji-kun’s expulsion. And I know other. You voted against his expulsion, didn’t you, Kushida-san?”

She looked towards the front row, where a cute little blonde angel was sitting.

It was also at moment that attention paid to this little angel increased rapidly.

“......” Kushida-chan.
