"I still have thirty thousand points left here!"

Horikita Suzune hadn't noticed the unusual atmosphere in the class yet, she just reported her remaining personal points, as if she wanted to make up for it.

"Hey, why don't we let them drop out of school?"

"There are no points left at all."

"What's the point of saving these people?"

First one person, and then more students from Class D began to vent their dissatisfaction. They were tired of this bottomless pit of investment. Not to mention the current poverty, they were not willing to do it even if they had enough points in their hands. Reaching out again.

Horikita Suzune felt powerless for the first time. She finally realized that she had never thought about the current situation of Class D. In her imagination, Class D should be a group that would follow her actions. Thinking about it carefully, in the past For more than half a month, she claimed to be the leader of Class D, but she had no understanding of every student in Class D, let alone their private thoughts.

Just when the situation reached a dead end and the five people who dropped out of school began to accept this cruel reality, and when they were hunched over and planning to follow Chabashira Sae to the office, Karuizawa Megumi raised his hand:

[If there is a dropout, just save Sudo Kenichi, he will become your weapon to control Class D]

"I remember Chazhu's class teacher said a few days ago that the school will give positive reviews to club activities. As long as they perform well in the club, members will be given individual points or even class points."

"Sudou-san, it seems that you will be selected as an official player of the basketball club, right?"

"...There is such a thing, but it's useless to talk about it now."

Unlike the other four people who dropped out of school, Ken Sudo has become much more stable after going through ups and downs in the past month. He originally wanted to proudly announce his efforts to the class after getting the reward. He had been holding his breath and wanted to prove his worth to Class D. He paid enough attention to the midterm exam, but unfortunately his foundation was too poor and he still lost one point.

"I gave Class B some clues about the fight a few days ago, so I received 100,000 personal points from Class B as a reward."

Karuizawa Megumi faced the muscular Sudou Ken. She looked around at the students, and first inadvertently revealed the fact that she had negotiated with Class B and gained something:

"Sudou-kun is only one point away, and maybe he can bring points to the class next month."

"I think he deserves to be saved."

Karuizawa Megumi stepped onto the podium. She spoke to the whole class for the first time. Even though she was mentally prepared, the huge pressure still made her voice tremble. She took a step back and put her palms against On the cold wall, this action seemed to give her courage:

"At the same time, Class B will also pay 400,000 personal points to Class D every month. This means that Class C's debt has now been transferred to Class B, and everyone does not have to worry about this problem in the future."

The more things Karuizawa Megumi said, the smoother it became. She didn't have the aura of a leader, but the students in Class D felt a kind of centripetal force for the first time in a long time. Even those who had never been interested in the farce in the class took a nap with their eyes closed. Koenji's six assistants all raised their eyes and looked at Karuizawa Megumi.

"It's only been two months since school started."

"Class D will definitely be able to stand up again in the future competition. Because it is zero, there is no way out, so there is more room for improvement."

Karuizawa Megumi is really not good at speaking. She just stiffly recited the words written by Kitagawa Ryo for her.

However, 400,000 personal points were obtained from Class B in one month. This shocking news has lifted the students of Class D from the abyss to the clouds. They are already a little dizzy. Karuizawa Megumi said nothing. It's not important. The current students in Class D can only get a little simple information:

Horikita Suzune leads Class D... seems not as good as Karuizawa Megumi?

Some people remembered the confrontation between Karuizawa Megumi and Kitagawa Ryo in the corridor two days ago, and members of Karuizawa Megumi's group also took advantage of the situation and took action to start building momentum.

Horikita Suzune pursed her lips and looked at Karuizawa Megumi on the podium. She noticed this girl in the class for the first time. Her previous impression of Karuizawa Megumi was that she was a hot girl who was popular among girls. He existed, but now she realized that the other person's back was straight and his expression was resolute. He was completely different from when he first entered school.

He negotiated with Class B to gain points to resolve Class C's debts, and faced off with Class C leader Ryo Kitagawa without losing any success. Even in dealing with interpersonal relationships, the other party seemed more comfortable.

No matter which one of them it is, Horikita Suzune seems to have never done it.

"I will make Class D better."

Megumi Karuizawa made a declaration to Yosuke Hirata generously, and her smile was contagious, which made her speech particularly powerful.

Communicating with annoying people makes you want to puke.

But every time he was frustrated and couldn't persevere, Karuizawa Megumi would think of him. Just recalling the time with him seemed to make him try harder.

"I believe everyone will not let me down."

[After all, I still need you to earn the 20 million for me...]

ps: I went home to be with my parents today, so the update is a little late, sorry.

ps2: A big chapter of 6,000 words, starting tomorrow will be 10,000 words per day.

ps3: Thank you for reading and subscribing. The look between Horikita Suzune and Karuizawa Megumi in the last paragraph corresponds to the confrontation between the two in the hotel in the fourth simulation, but the perspective has changed, even if it is just for Ryo, Megumi She is also trying to move towards a stronger self, but Horikita Suzune has fallen into stagnation without the intervention of Kitagawa Ryo.

Megumi Karuizawa's Autumn Memories: Chapter 21: A Day in the Life of Yusu Sakayanagi

One day in June, Kitagawa Ryo was holding Hotaru in his room and watching TV alone. He had just bathed the kitten. Although he had used a hair dryer to blow it, Hotaru still seemed to be concerned about his body. He tugged at the curled hair again and again, feeling dissatisfied and had to be smoothed by Kitagawa Ryo to feel at ease.

Just when Kitagawa Ryo was enjoying this rare leisure time on vacation, his cell phone suddenly rang. Kitagawa Ryo put Hotaru on the sofa and took out the phone, and Sakayanagi Yusu's name appeared on the screen:

"Hey, Arisu?"

"The call was picked up pretty quickly. It looks like he's alone in the room."

"are you sick?"

Kitagawa Ryo frowned. Although Sakayanagi Yusu still had the same teasing tone as usual, his voice was obviously a little out of breath, and his breathing rate was different from usual. Thinking of the girl's inherently unhealthy body, Kitagawa Ryo didn't either. The inquiry came naturally.

"Oh, it's okay. I had a cold a few days ago."

Sakayanagi Yusu yawned lightly on the other end of the phone. She didn't seem to pay much attention to it, and she seemed to be in good spirits:

"I probably won't take part in the special exam this summer either."

"Really? Sure enough, the school won't let us go easily. It should be referring to the 'uninhabited island vacation' that the teachers said, right?"

"Well, that's it."

Although Kitagawa Ryo also had some vague guesses about the arrangements for the summer school, if Sakayanagi Arisu had confirmed it, the general content of the exam would have become clear.

The location is an uninhabited island, and the frail Sakayanagi Yusu will not participate, so it is natural to outline the outline of this exam.

"The special exam... should be a major exam that can narrow the distance between classes in one breath, or even turn the situation around, right?"

"right."

As if he heard the ambition hidden in Kitagawa Ryo's words, Sakayanagi Yusu also chuckled and responded:

"Currently, Class D and Class B no longer have the strength to compete with Class C. I think Ryo's next target will be Class A."

"I do have this idea, but if you don't come to participate, Arisu, it won't be very interesting."

"If other students in Class A hear it, they will feel looked down upon. There is still a gap between Class A and Class C, isn't there?"

"It's just a few hundred points."

Kitagawa Ryo responded without fear.

In June after the midterm exam, the class points of each class also underwent a round of updates:

Class A still leads the way with 1004 points, followed by Class B with 683 points, Class C with 656 points, and Class D with a miserable 87 points.

The school of Tokyo Advanced Education Middle School did add one hundred class points to each class as a reward for passing the midterm exam, but the premise is that no one in the class dropped out due to the midterm exam. If Sudou Ken was not the only first-year student In addition to being selected as an official player by the basketball club to participate in the upcoming summer meeting and being awarded 100 personal points by the school, Class D's class points are estimated to be zero points.

It is precisely with these 100 class points that Karuizawa Megumi successfully used Sudou to completely establish a foothold in Class D. After all, if Karuizawa Megumi hadn't funded the insurance of Sudou Ken who was dropped out of school after the midterm exam, , then the situation of Class D will be even worse.

After all, this is the first time they have increased their class points since the beginning of the year.

After excluding Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki, the current D class even seems to have bottomed out under tremendous pressure, but Kitagawa Ryo really doesn't take them to heart.

"Actually, Arisu also hopes that I will be more aggressive with Class A this time."

Kitagawa Ryo wouldn't think that Sakayanagi Arisu would tell him the information about the special summer exam without any hesitation. He would never let down his guard against Sakayanagi Arisu, even if the other party now looks so sick that he can't even speak.

Sakayanagi Arisu's control over Class A is slower than he imagined. Katsuragi Kohei has indeed gathered a group of supporters. If Sakayanagi Arisu cannot take the exam this time, Class A must be led by Katsuragi Kohei. In other words, the greater the blow Kitagawa Ryo causes to Class A, the more conducive it is to Sakayanagi Yusu's unification of Class A after the summer vacation.

"Ah, why don't you think of me as being so utilitarian every time?"

Sakayanagi Yusu seemed to be lying on the bed covered with a quilt. Kitagawa Ryo could hear the sound of her clothes rubbing against the quilt as she turned over, accompanied by two slight coughs.

"...Are you really okay?"

Although rationality told Kitagawa Ryo that Sakayanagi Yusu was definitely not the kind of girl who would take the initiative to show weakness, he still couldn't help but expressed concern:

"You look very uncomfortable."

"You know how to care about me now?"

Sakayanagi Yusu's words silenced Kitagawa Ryo again. In fact, during this entire semester, except for meeting Sakayanagi Yusu once each at the beginning of school and when planning Class B, he had basically been thinking about it intentionally. Although it was in line with the general strategy of killing Class D and Class B first and then attacking Class A, Ryoya Kitagawa really didn't want to have anything to do with him.

Compared with Honami Ichinose, Megumi Karuizawa, Hiyori Shiina and even Suzune Horikita, Yusu Sakayanagi is the only girl that Ryo Kitagawa cannot see through. Unlike her delicate appearance, he knows very well what is inside her. His calculations are no less than his own, and it is really troublesome for two people with so many evil intentions to deal with each other.

"Then I still don't care about you. I wish you a speedy recovery."

Since Sakayanagi Yusu will not participate in the special exam during the summer vacation, Class C's chances will undoubtedly increase this time. Kitagawa Ryo was about to hang up the phone cleanly, but then the other party said:

"Do you still owe me two favors?"

"Isn't it one?"

Beichuan Liang was stunned for a moment:

"You won't take into account what happened in the divine room last time, right?"

"Of course. After all, Kamuro Masumi is mine now. It's only natural that you ask her to help and the favor falls on me."

"Just say it, obviously what I said before is that you will be given 20% of the points obtained from Class B."

"But I think it's more interesting to make Ryo owe me a favor compared to the ten or two hundred thousand points a month."

"Yes, yes, after all, your Class A family has a great cause, so Yusu doesn't care about these points."

Kitagawa Ryo couldn't help it. After all, it would take a stimulus to trick Ichinose Honami into revealing his past. And this stimulus cannot be from Class B or Class C. After much deliberation, Class D couldn't find a suitable candidate. In the end, Sakayanagi Yusu took the initiative and offered Kamuro Masumi to put on a good show.

But the price is that Kitagawa Ryo owes Sakayanagi Arisu a favor, and based on Kitagawa Ryo's consistent understanding of Sakayanagi Arisu, she should use this reward at the most critical moment, but now based on her tone , seems to have the intention of using up the favor here?

"There's no need for extra favors. Liang just needs to always owe me a promise."

"...You haven't given up on that idea yet?"

"No, when Liang is defeated by me and wants to drop out of school, I will first use 20 million to protect Liang, and then spend 20 million to transfer Liang to Class A. How about that?"

"You're too boring."

Kitagawa Ryo touched the head of the kitten in front of him and suddenly asked:

"By the way, you don't know that Yingying is with me now, right?"

"Um?"

Sakayanagi Yusu felt surprised for the first time:

"That cat?"

"Yes, I remember that Arisu helped me raise it for a year."

"Yes, and I gave you the name Firefly, right?"

"It's Megumi who doesn't remember the past, not me."

"The call was very affectionate. It seems that the relationship has recovered well?"

Sakayanagi Yusu's tone suddenly turned cold:

"Now, take that cat of yours and come here."

"...This is my first time entering a girl's room. Is there anything I should pay attention to?"

"Don't you treat Shiina Hiyori and Karuizawa Megumi as girls?"

Sakayanagi Arisu seemed to have recovered from his previous emotions, and spoke half-jokingly and half-seriously as always:

"Then should I be proud?"

"You are really very clear about your investigation."

Kitagawa Ryo's guess was indeed correct. Even in the first semester when the two had basically no communication, they were still trying to find out each other's information.

"Ryo still has one minute left, do you need me to count down for you?"

"No, I'm already in the elevator."

Kitagawa Ryo found a cardboard box and put the confused Hotaru in it. He opened the door and checked that no one was in the corridor before quickly walking into the elevator:

"You are really capable of doing things. If someone sees Yingying, she will be in big trouble."

"It's up to you to take care of it. If Liang dares to say another word today, I'll treat it as if you haven't repaid the favor."

"Okay, okay, my eldest lady, please calm down, okay? If you are sick, you still talk like this. If you are not sick, you must not..."

Kitagawa Ryo walked out of the elevator and headed towards Sakayanagi Arisu's room. Before he could finish his words, he saw Sakayanagi Arisu leaning against the door frame of her room not far away. She was looking at him with a smile:

"So what if you're not sick?"

"Of course she's more beautiful when she's not sick!"
