Just change @ to a]

May 1st.

This is the first day of the second month for new students entering this school.

Yucheng High School is different from other schools in the outside world. It provides students with good treatment and a competition mechanism.

That is the mobility ranking of the ABCD class. 

A class with a high-class evaluation score is an upper-rank class. If the class evaluation score drops, the upper rank will also drop.

And only if you graduate as Class A when you finally graduate, can you enjoy the free entrance exam mentioned in the school's promotion and go to the university you want, or go directly to the job you want.

So for the students in Class A who enrolled from the beginning, Class A is like sweet poison.

Because they have to persist for three full years.

And if they are pulled down during this process, they may lose morale.

So they have to be in a state of high tension all the time.

And today is also the day to start announcing the class evaluation scores of their class one month from now.

Katsuragi-san got the information after consulting the teacher.

They paid a premium on their first day of admission and then got the bonus of an extra 200 points in class evaluation scores from the Board of Governors for complying with the school's rules.

Then they also performed hard.

So many people are curious about how many points will be deducted from their class.

I am also concerned about... how many points can we get compared with the four BCD classes.

Over the past month, Katsuragi-kun has been known for his stability.

His idea of ​​a robust score-raising idea has been embraced by some students.

So the number of people in Katsuragi's small group has now reached 28.

But, since they are students in Class A, it would be foolish to bet on just one person.

As Kamuro-san knows, there are no less than 10 people who have participated in both the Sakayanagi and Katsuragi factions.

Then there were people on both sides who supported Oreki Houtarou.

Therefore, the situation in Class A is still so complicated.

But everyone is trying to maintain their position in Class A, which is understandable.

only among these students, there is one who can fly solo.

That was Oreki Houtarou.

A young man with quite an outstanding appearance.

He usually looks a bit lazy, but no one dares to underestimate his mobility.

According to the school's rules, having 20 million points can exempt you from the penalty of dropping out of school and you can also go to other classes.

So as long as you get 20 million points, use them when you graduate, and go to Class A of the third grade when you graduate, you can reach the pinnacle of your life.

And now Oreki-san...

[Name: Houtaro Oreki

Class: Grade A, first grade

Student ID: 1008610010

Private account: 13.5 million 7900 points. ]

Have huge points.

Everyone is privately discussing that he may become the first person who can collect 20 million points since the school was founded.

So, the class was divided into three, but most people wanted to hug his thigh.

because.

He has a lot of money.

For example, students who support Katsuragi-san need to collect 1 million points today to buy Katsuragi-san a ticket to enter the student council.

But the person who collected the money was Oreki-san.

So it's pretty straightforward which side to bet more on.

"Well--"

But Oreki-san doesn't seem to have much energy today.

This is true.

Because he had another dream last night.

But this time the dream was a bit scary.

It's the future with girls again.

certainly.

The specific content was forgotten when I woke up.

Rather, I have been dreaming about girls recently.

But it wasn't a precognitive dream.

Then it is an ordinary dream.

Many dreams are related to thinking about things day by day and dreaming about things at night.

And ordinary people can dream about girls...

In other words, has time for me to experience some teenage love comedy come? Do I want to have some contact with girls?

As expected...

When I came to this school, I saw all very cute and beautiful girls, so I must have been infected.

Oreki-san thought to himself.

...

Because the morning meeting hadn't started yet, everyone was very relaxed.

Oreki came to his seat and a girl talked to him.

Probably because she discovered that some girls were ranking the school's handsome boys on the forum.

And then voted for him or something.

Some things come with being famous.

but.

Oreki felt that he was already famous enough and didn't need these additions.

only.

[Oreki-san, you are popular. ]by Sakayanagi Arisu.

Oreki clicked on the small group on his phone.

There is something special about this little group.

They are members of the Sakayanagi's faction.

But there were only a few people inside.

Others include Masumi Kamuro and Arisu Sakayanagi.

It was a group created when Kamuro's classmates who needed extra classes were transferred to Sakayanagi Arisu. The results are retained.

Occasionally.

Sakayanagi Arisu will be talking inside.

In the past two days, the number of times the other party spoke has increased.

But Oreki didn't have much interest.

Because what girls are discussing now is the ranking of handsome guys.

Horikita Manabu, a third-year student, is on the list.

Second-year Nagumo Miyabi and second-year Class B representative Kiriyama are also on the list.

As for the first graders.

He is on the list as the representative of Class A, and then Masayoshi Hashimoto, who is good at three-way betting, is also on the list.

There is also a student in Class B of the first grade, Ryuji Kanzaki, who has slightly curly purple hair and looks not very cheerful.

There were three students from Class D of the first grade, one was Rokusuke Koenji, one was Yosuke Hirata, and the other was Kiyotaka Ayanokouji.

As for Class C of the first grade, only Ryūen Kakeru is on the list.

As a student in Class A, after discovering this ranking list, most of the students voted against Ryuuen.

Because the last time Ryuuen rushed into Class A, everyone had the impression that he wanted to find trouble with Oreki-san.

So there is almost no need for anyone to organize, they are all trying to get garbage votes for Ryuuen.

So the current ranking is Ryuuen at the bottom.

"I don't want to be popular." Oreki said in the small group, "But the number of times I have been approached by girls recently has increased——"

[...Then——] Sakayanagi Arisu seems to be inputting.

But there were footsteps outside the corridor.

So everyone looked over.

That's when their headteacher arrived.

In other words, let's start the class meeting.

So, everyone sat down in their seats and put down their mobile phones.

...

"First of all, follow the school rules you knew when you enrolled."

"The 1st of every month is the time when the school will credit points into your account and notify you of this month's special examination."

"Normally, the class evaluation scores will be updated after the special examination, but the first month of your freshman year is the traditional code of conduct examination."

"And it didn't officially end until 0 o'clock today."

"Then--"

Teacher Mashima from Class A put on a brown suit today and looked more energetic.

He seems to be in a good mood.

He is indeed in a good mood.

Because the students in Class A he leads are very outstanding.

And this is the class evaluation score this time.

Class A has 1230 points.

Class B has 570 points.

Class C has 390 points.

Class D has 0 points.

"From now on, the school will transfer private points into your account based on the class evaluation score x 100 at a fixed time on the 1st of every month."

"The time is always 7 a.m."

And now it is 6:59 minutes and 58 seconds.

The homeroom teacher, Mr. Mashima, looked at the watch on his left wrist.

"Beep!"

"123,000 personal points have been credited to your account. The transfer party is XF10001."

"123,000 personal points have been credited to your account. The transfer party is XF10001."

"123,000 personal points have been credited to your account. The transfer party is XF10001."

"..."

The phone of a student in the class who had not closed their account beeped.

And the sounds are the same.

The points received are the class evaluation score announced by the teacher x 100.

"It seems that my guess is correct. Our class performed very well, so even if it was deducted, it was not deducted much. At the same time, it also received a high score of 1230."

"Class B, which is closest to us, only has 570 points, so there is a 660-point gap."

"If we execute a solid plan, we have a promising future."

Katsuragi-san is in a good mood.

"However, the extra 30 points was a surprise."

Yes.

Everyone was also surprised.

Everyone knows that the basic score for class evaluation is 1000 points.

200 points is an extra reward for their class. On the first day of enrollment, they paid 2 million points to obtain information about the school's special rules.

As a result, they were awarded 200 points.

However, no one expected that an additional 30 points would be added.

30 points can be added without deducting points. In other words, in the past month, everyone's behavioral standards have received a high evaluation, so this is a grade for Class A.

There is a feeling of recognition.

So everyone feels at ease.

only.

Just when Katsuragi-san, who had been calm just now, was about to relax, he was suddenly startled.

Not just him, but all the students around him had the same expression.

because.

Everyone mentioned a special beep.

[1 million personal points have been credited to your account. The transfer party is unknown. ]

Among the notification sounds on everyone's mobile phones, there is a system notification sound that seems... very different.

because.

Everyone has received 123,000 points from the school, but you alone have received 1 million points?

and.

The transfer party is still... unknown.

???

So everyone looked at the person who received the 1 million payment message on his mobile phone.

Oreki also looked at his phone.

In addition to the fact that the transfer of 1 million points was received, there is also a note.

[You are mine. During the three years in school, protect yourself like a jade. ]

"…" Oreki.

Um.

so.

???

Is he being kept...?
