Two days had passed in a flash, and today was the fifth day.
The leaders of the other classes had almost finished organizing their own classes, and it was time for the next step.
Akasaka Ryunosuke, with his hands in his pockets, walked out of his room, intending to go to school.
As I got into the elevator and was about to press the button, a girl with long, pinkish-gold hair, who looked exceptionally cute and sweet, rushed in, holding her knees and panting heavily.
The rise and fall of her chest, due to her rapid breathing, made it feel like her clothes were about to burst.
The person who came was Ichinose Honami of Class B.
After catching her breath, Ichinose patted her small chest and muttered to herself, "That was close! I almost missed the elevator."
Then, noticing me beside her, she said apologetically, "Sorry, did I cause you trouble?"
"It's fine, it was just a few extra seconds," I replied, then pressed the elevator button. The elevator doors closed, and at that moment, only the two of us were inside.
Ichinose opened her phone and chatted with her friends without any hesitation, completely disregarding how dangerous it was to be alone with a boy.
I couldn't help but sigh, but I didn't say anything.
Ichinose seemed to remember something and asked me, "Hello, I am Ichinose Honami from first-year Class B. Please take care of me for the next three years."
After speaking, she extended her smooth, tender hand towards me.
I took her hand as well. "I am Akasaka Ryunosuke from first-year Class D. Please take care of me, Ichinose-kun."
Ichinose quickly waved her hand. "Just call me Ichinose. There's no need to be so formal. We already know each other, don't we?"
Uh, she really is naturally friendly, and her charisma is truly remarkable.
I did not answer Ichinose's question but instead asked, "What do you think of this school, Ichinose-kun?"
Ichinose Honami pouted unhappily. "I told you, you can just call me Ichinose. You're really being formal."
"You're just too naturally friendly, aren't you?" I mumbled, feeling a bit speechless, while continuing the previous topic, trying to guide her towards the answer I wanted her to know.
"Don't you think this school is very unusual?"
I explained to Ichinose the many unreasonable aspects of this school, such as the free cafeteria, free supplies, and free daily necessities, which were clearly prepared for certain people.
Furthermore, the fact that some D Class members from the upper years couldn't even afford instant noodles occasionally clearly indicated a problem.
After listening to my explanation, Ichinose also frowned and began to ponder.
"What you said makes sense, Akasaka-kun. So what exactly is the secret of this school?"
Ichinose Honami blinked her adorable, K-style big eyes at me, her gaze seemingly saying: 【I'm very curious.】
Tsk, another one trying to get information for free, but it doesn't matter, I'll earn it back from you.
I expressionlessly extended a finger towards the impossibly cute Ichinose Honami and said, "Do you want to know the answer? Give me 1 million private points, and I'll tell you everything I know."
Ichinose Honami's eyes widened, and she looked at me with an incredulous expression.
"Akasaka-kun, that joke isn't funny at all."
"I'm not joking. If you really don't believe me, you can ask your homeroom teacher how much it costs to buy class information. It should be no less than 2 million."
Akasaka remembered the price in the original work, which was indeed around 2 million. My asking for half the price from Ichinose was really not expensive.
Ichinose was silent for a moment, then replied, "Can you give me some time to prepare, Akasaka-kun? I want to confirm it."
"Please do," I said, waving my hand indifferently, indicating it didn't matter.
Ichinose Honami gave me a sweet smile. "Thank you, Akasaka-kun." Then she took out her phone and confirmed the information in the class group chat, completely unconcerned that someone was watching everything behind her.
Through Ichinose's phone, I saw that the class group had 40 members, and I couldn't help but click my tongue.
As expected of Ichinose, the little angel. The class had only 40 members, and in just 5 days, she had managed to pull all of them into the group, uniting them. Her cohesion is truly impressive.
Ichinose also saw me looking at her phone screen and showed no hesitation, even boldly inviting me to look with her.
After all, at this time, Ichinose was still unaware of the school's information, which is why she was so reckless.
Otherwise, if she knew that there was a confrontational relationship between the classes, she would absolutely not let the enemy see it.
So I did not accept Ichinose's suggestion but instead avoided her gaze and pretended to be asleep.
Seeing this, Ichinose said nothing and continued sending messages, asking her classmates to confirm the accuracy of the information.
Soon, messages from her classmates came in. One student had asked the homeroom teacher, Hoshinomiya, and it was confirmed that there was indeed information worth 2 million private points.
And that homeroom teacher, upon learning that someone was selling the information for 1 million, very appropriately reminded her students that they could buy it.
Of course, all of this was within Akasaka Ryunosuke's expectations.
Yesterday, he had already completed some sort of clandestine transaction with Hoshinomiyazhihui and subsequently added her as a friend for future contact.
While Ichinose was confirming the situation with her classmates, he conveniently sent his plan to sell information to Class B via text message.
For Hoshinomiya, there were only benefits and no drawbacks.
So she readily agreed to cooperate with Akasaka, working together from inside and out.
She also said she would treat Akasaka-kun to a drink afterward, but Akasaka refused, citing that he couldn't drink alcohol.
Now, after confirming the situation, Ichinose completely believed my words, and her expression changed from relaxed to serious, though still retaining her cuteness.
Indeed, good looks are justice!
"I have already confirmed with the class, Akasaka-kun."
"But regarding the 1 million for information, please allow me to think it over. I need to discuss it with the people in the class; it's not something I can decide alone."
"It's fine, Ichinose-kun. You can send your classmates to check with the upper years to see if what I said is true. If it is, you're always welcome here."
"But I must remind you to be quick, or it might become useless later."
After saying this, I slung my single-shoulder bag, which was my schoolbag, onto my back, then turned to Ichinose and took out my terminal.
"Can we exchange contact information, Ichinose-kun?"
"Yes! Of course, we can!"
Ichinose happily exchanged contact information with me.
After getting Ichinose Honami's contact information, I left.
On the way to class, I kept thinking about how to prevent conflicts between the two homeroom teachers' contracts.
To lower the class points to 100 and get 2.1 million, while also having to promote the class, there was only one way...
Akasaka Ryunosuke's eyes were dark and unclear.
【Which class should I target? Let me think...】
