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

Morning.

After Chabashira, homeroom teacher of 2nd-year D class, announced the rules of this sports festival, everyone was restricted from receiving useless reward of class transfer coupon.

Even if you get a transfer certificate, you still have to come back when it expires.

It’s not possible to graduate with Class A in the end, so it doesn’t seem as good as 2 million points.

But at this moment, people found out that...Koenji didn’t come.

In other words, he actually changed classes without saying a word.

He went to Class A, Grade 2, and abandoned everyone.

This kind of thing.

”That’s too much!”

”How could Koenji do this?”

”I’ll disect him....I wanna be a human doctor. Give me a few scissors!”

It is undeniable that Koenji’s reputation dropped instantly.

”People always strive for higher things. Didn’t you see that Koenji-kun has made great contributions to class in the past? Although he left, he also repaid us with corresponding points he had previously earned.”

At this time, person who chose to stand up was the stern Horikita Suzune.

Do you want to join his nursery? That guy with dream of being a doctor looked over.

”....Ah. It’s Horikita-san.” That boy stopped dreaming badly in an instant.

She is the girl who doesn’t care about other people’s comments or words at all and doesn’t take them to heart.

In fact, it can’t be said that she was supporting him, because what Horikita Suzune said was the truth.

The points that Koenji brought to class were indeed not consistent with what he finally took away.

He lost more than 10 million points.

So, for the class, everyone’s wallet can be fatter. Each person paid more than 300,000 yen less.

Even so, everyone’s wallets seem to be getting thinner and thinner.

”Koenji-kun is leaving, why don’t you think about why? Is it because there is no room for him in class?” Suzune’s attack power began to increase, ”Are you alright, Ike?”

In this way, Suzune brought out Ike’s bubble pond first. There is nothing similar to giving respect.

Compared with Koenji, what people dislike more is Ike’s fish.

Because Koenji at least brought points to the class, but Ike and whole class were unanimous in not wanting to drop out, so deducted 300 points.

And it was you, Ike, who first set the fire to Koenji.

”So, Koenji-kun is running away now. Is it because you, Ike, deliberately let everyone vote to have him drop out of school? Make our relations worse?”

Today’s Suzune is also very cold.

Not even a need to think before insulting people’s entire life.

Then people began to look in the direction of Ike Kanji.

”.....”

If Ike drops out of school without losing points, everyone would be willing to invite Koenji back.

”Horikita-san! You have gone too far!” Noticing everyone’s eyes on him, Ike knew he could no longer use Koenji as a punching bag.

He had to say. ”So what should our class do for this sports festival without Koenji? Who else can give the class a win? Because you know our level very well, we can’t beat anyone.”

”Hey, the hell do you mean, Ike?!”

”Are you looking down on me!”

”Shut up you assholes, whose name even I don’t know!”

It should be said that Ike had considered his decision to stay.

Since he can’t drag Koenji into this, now going to pull most of the sports losers into this.

”So, Horikita-san, what do you think we should do?” Ike said directly.

”.....” Horikita Suzune pursed her lips, because she found this guy really shameless.

This exam, or rather class that lost Koenji, was actually not easy.

In this exam, only top two classes with the highest total scores are safe.

The current class evaluation score is over 700 points.

So if you deduct a little more, everyone will be furious.

In the past, Hikigaya had forced everyone to comply with the code of conduct in first month by forcing them to either restrain themselves or endure a long period of hardship in order to maintain their scores.

The class where Hikigaya-kun is not.

Perhaps this is what this class is really like. Suzune immediately fell into a dilemma.

For Horikita Suzune, is she going to pick up something that even Hikigaya doesn’t want?

”I’ll take charge.”

With great force, Suzune moved forward!

Everyone around looked at her in surprise.

”So...if the class fails this exam and loses points, you will be responsible for it, Horikita?” a student said immediately to save his own skin.

”Yes, rest assured. You can be here for a little more time.” Suzune nodded.

This doesn’t make people feel ease at all.

”Horikita-san, isn’t this too risky?” Another girl came to her rescue, when she felt these people were becoming annoying.

”After all, for this kind of exam...Koenji-kun isn’t here either.” The student who just mentioned that Horikita would be in danger continued, ”So isn’t it very likely or certain that our class will be at the bottom?”

”Kushida-san.” But Horikita-san looked at the classmate who had just picked a fight, ”Please trust your classmates more, okay?”

”Tsk....” Kushida-chan made a safe face as if she was hurt by her words.

”You know, besides Koenji-kun, we also have Hirata-kun, Sudo-kun, and even Ayanokoji-kun. As for the girls, me, you, Onodera-san, and even Sato and Matsushita-san are not too bad in terms of physical fitness. So our class didn’t lose completely.”

”💢” Matsushita immediately felt this black-haired girl was very poisonous, and she immediately got burned from two sides just with one sentence. ’What do you mean not too bad? It’s better than yours, Horikita-san! Don’t mention my name so casually~!’

But, Suzune did have some considerations, really not here to pick a fight.

Then, students who were just called began to look towards Horikita.

One was more subtle.

Because this is Chiaki Matsushita, girl has exposed her strength in front of Hikigaya and even got arranged to participate in the 1200-meter relay last year, so everyone thinks she is still a fast runner.

This time, a little effort won’t hurt.

Especially.

Although there are many boys hanging on the wall, there doesn’t seem to be any particularly strong monster-like girls.

Matsushita felt that she had a chance to get the first place in score among girls. ’But it’s not very stable, because I haven’t practiced much in the past year. So I probably can’t compare to the professional sports students like Kinoshita-san in Ryuen-kun’s class. But Horikita-san studies for ten hours every day and doesn’t have much time for training.....Ha!’

So when facing Horikita, Matsushita felt that she should be able to win relatively easily.

And now, suddenly, Koenji ran away.

So she thought this class would be sent away, but it turns out Horikita is willing to take the lead.

So do you really have to take the role?

Of course, Suzune would not cling to a class that even Hikigaya didn’t want. ’So now, no matter how I think about it, I will never devote myself to my current class.’

So, why did she recommend herself? It’s very simple.

The cultural festival had just ended, and her brother had returned to school.

Hikigaya had also been away from class for more than three months.

However, she doesn’t seem to have made much progress.

This made her a little anxious. Suzune had to change from being lazy.

This time, sports festival is an opportunity, because Koenji’s departure and decline in class evaluation scores seem to be a foregone conclusion.

Then it will be easier to mobilize.

Because this threatens everyone’s interests.

Therefore, students who were originally divided into several groups like mosquitoes during cultural festival seemed to be able to produce honey cheaply.

”I have no problem being commander of this sports festival.” As everyone looked over with big and stupid faces, Horikita Suzune opened her mouth more harshly, ”Although Koenji-kun has left, there are still people in our class who can run as well as others.”

After she said this, everyone’s attention shifted again.

But it’s not Sudo who is recognized as a sports wall.

Instead, it fell on the man who usually had a low presence sitting in the front row of classroom.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka.

A boy who, together with Onodera, scored the crucial 200 points for class in last year’s grade-wide sports by performing the three-legged race.

He got noticed.

”O O”

After all, this is someone with even greater athletic talent than Sudo.

”.....” Ayanokoji.

Being watched eagerly by his classmates, Kiyotaka immediately realized that after the absence of Koenji, who was a tool for scoring points for class, his comparable strength was immediately targeted.

After all, he appeared as a secret weapon in last year’s sports, demonstrated his presence and importance.

Ayanokoji also considered that if he appeared at the sports festival again this year, he might be morally coerced into playing.

He was indeed somewhat tempted.

Or say.

Tsukishiro left, and Yagami left too.

Although this school may still be a little threatening, for him, freedom has returned.

Last year he discovered valuable people like Koenji and Horikita Manabu, who were like wild geniuses outside of White Room.

Horikita Manabu graduated and left, but Koenji is still there.

But Koenji and he were classmates, so they couldn’t fight at full strength.

However, he is now in Class A, so maybe they can become rivals and play together.

This kind of thing.

Kiyotaka is a little...excited.

Maybe he could fight against a wild genius like Koenji.

In the end, is he more powerful, White Room’s Masterpiece or is a wild genius like Koenji?

You know, last year he was still in a state of letting go. Even though he was letting go, he still had the urge to fully unleash all his strength and run once.

So, is it possible for Koenji to keep up with him when he gives his all?



Ayanokoji was actually somewhat interested, ”I will do my best for class in this exam, and will not lose to others in the competition.”

”That’s right, I think we shouldn’t be discouraged even if you face that bastard Koenji. I’m coming too!”

”Ew.....”

In this situation, Sudo Ken raised his right hand, ”I will not lose in the sprint event! And basketball, basketball is also fine! Swimming is also fine! I will participate in all 10 events!”

Sudou-san is still eager to fight.

In other words, his grades were not good and his temper was bad, but now a good opportunity for him to improve his grades and be evaluated.

Although he admitted that he was not as good as Ayanokoji or Koenji.

However, apart from these two, there is also student council president, but to other ordinary athletes, he will not lose.

As for student council president, Horikita Manabu has already graduated!

Then no matter who his opponent is next, he will definitely get 3rd place!

Kiyotaka nodded, and even Sudo made his own spontaneous efforts, which immediately made some students react.

Although Koenji was missing, there were still two people in his class who could take top 3 spots.

Just this time.
