In private room.
Hachiman looked at dishes on table.
'They are all my favorite dishes. Although queue for tea is a bit long, food is still good....I was ready to buy my own and pay for it, but it turns out that free food is more pleasing to stomach!'
It's not like it's freeloading.
Hikigaya rarely saw Chabashira-sensei in this state.
The only time she lost her composure was when he just entered school last year and pointed out that she had been sinner in her class.
Then she told him what had happened in a daze.
As a student in Class D, she worked hard with everyone and climbed up to Class B, which was only one step away from Class A. Then, as graduation was approaching, school held a withdrawal exam.
Similar to in-class voting to drop out exam that Hachiman and his classmates had last year, whole class unanimously chose one student to drop out, would give them extra points.
Their class was facing last chance to catch up with A, so representative at the time chose to drop out to give others a talisman to catch up.
However, Chabashira rejected this option at the time, so proposal was eventually scrapped, and their class did not get any points in exam.
In the end, everyone graduated as students of Class B.
They can only develop on their own based on their own strength.
However, she was also resented by many of her classmates, who felt that if she had not chosen to oppose it, perhaps they would have caught up with her.
So, Chabashira became obsessed. 'I was questioning whether I had really done something wrong by erasing everyone's possibilities.'
But looking back now, Hachiman felt this test should be more like Unanimous special exam that class was going to take now.
'The reason is that yesterday I could still see her, as a working person, watering the flower beds outside teaching building with a hose, and she was in a good mood at that time. Instead of the trance I feel now. This exam was too similar to their past one, and it reminded her of the past, causing her psychological trauma to reappear....'
Hikigaya-kun decided to have a good talk with her, so he asked her to treat him to dinner.
This is a follow-up to the psychological treatment she received earlier.
After all, Hikigaya-kun took 10 million points from the other party, so he was still very responsible.
Of course, it is not ruled out there are many special exams, and some of them will be repeated, so you can get some of their exam experience from Chabashira-nee.

On the other side, Kamuro-san finished her meal and returned to Sakayanagi Arisu's private room.
Arisu Sakayanagi is not only representative of second-year Class A, but also President of Student council, and even daughter of the former chairman.
Her family is powerful.
Only heir in her family, so she is a reliable rich woman.
You can say that.
Kamuro-san was present at the scene where Sakayanagi invited Amasawa yesterday.
Then immediately some uncomfortable emotions emerged.
Because when Sakayanagi invited her, she was only offered an annual salary of 5 million, but when she invited junior girl Amasawa, she was directly offered an annual salary of 20 million.
The gap between them made her feel worthless.
But she also knew that her abilities were limited, and if she was asked to assist Chairman Sakayanagi with his work, she would definitely not be able to do it.
If this goes on, will she never be able to leave Sakayanagi?
No....She wants to break away from Sakayanagi, has her own pursuits!
"You're so slow to come back today." However, when Kamuro-san came back from getting food, Sakayanagi immediately complained about it, "Now you only have to make food for you and me, so your workload has been reduced. But Kamuro-san, you seem to be slacking off on your work."
"….." Hateful.
'Is it true that because I don't have reliable talents, you need to pay more attention to me?'
She will come back late, definitely because there are so many people queuing.
"Speaking of which." Kamuro-san thought she had to annoy Sakayanagi, so she said very coldly, "When I was waiting in line, I saw Chabashira-sensei. She bought all the food that Hikigaya-kun liked. Then I saw two of them enter same room."
"• ? •" Why Hikigaya-kun....
Okay, deep breath.
"Oh, Chabashira-sensei." Sakayanagi calmly put the spoon into the scallop and winter melon soup that Kamuro-san had made, "Isn't that Hikigaya-kun's former homeroom teacher? It must be very difficult for class teacher to have a reliable student run away. Although she's still in Class B now, it's only a matter of time before falling down. But it would be useless even if she invited Hikigaya-kun to dinner. Because that class is hopeless."
There's no hope.
In this special exam, there is a high probability whole class will unanimously choose to explode.
In the past, Hikigaya-kun was still in class and would go to extreme methods.
But once he leaves, some people in that class may not be able to be suppressed.
So, bound to go wrong this time.
"Let's just watch the show. After this exam, even Koenji-kun may also choose to transfer to another class early. After all, his own home is meant to explode!"
Koenji is a recognized monster.
Therefore, if we can bring them over as allies, it would be a good thing from Class A's perspective.
After all, having one more classmate is equivalent to eliminating a terrible enemy.
Sakayanagi, however, showed little interest.
Because what she wanted was not for Koenji-kun to come to Class A.
"….." Kamuro-san was speechless.
Because she deliberately told Sakayanagi about Chabashira-sensei's initiative to invite Hikigaya, not that she was talking about class competition.
'Didn't Hikigaya say this several times before? His life goal is to be a househusband. And now, although there is a big age gap, Chabashira-sensei is actually a very suitable choice for Hikigaya, isn't she?'
Therefore, she just wanted Sakayanagi to be more alert.
'But girl didn't notice it at all. So, Sakayanagi, you can't do this, and will be doomed if continue like this. There will definitely be a day when someone unexpected will be able to surpass your speed and take down Hikigaya directly!'

After spending a lunch break getting psychological counseling from Chabashira-sensei (cliche), Hikigaya's campus life became very fulfilling.
"See you tomorrow, then."
As soon as afternoon classes were over, Hachiman packed his schoolbag.
'Today is the day I made an appointment with Horikita-san to have dinner together. Then of course I would go to her dormitory. After all, I even paid for the food!'
"Wait a minute, Hikigaya-kun."
But, Shiina-san called him, "There is news about Horikita class. Someone contacted Ryuen-kun. It seems that they want him to give some advice and do something for this exam."
Hachiman nodded, but shook his head at this girl who looked confused.
"Don't tell more. Someone will explain all this to me in detail. So, I'm going back to dormitory first."
Then he walked out of classroom with his schoolbag on his back.
Hiyori was left staring at his back.
That's right. Hikigaya-kun transferred here from Suzune's class.
Although he is no longer in that place, smart-looking people in class are all his tool people.
That's really good.
Hiyori is looking forward to Shura field affection between friends.
She was quite envious of Hikigaya-kun's development, even though he was just like her at the beginning, and both seemed to have been alone without friends for a long time.
As a result, it has become an enviable current situation now.
"…." Shiina Hiyori.
That's not right.
She suddenly reacted because of her wrong thoughts about watching this boy's Harem catch fire.
'Because the friends Hikigaya-kun is making now are not actually false...No friend will always be with you after leaving. Or sign some kind of marriage agreement.... Hikigaya-kun, what have you done? Did you recruit more girls?'

Horikita-san had more time tonight, so she made braised pork.
Plus braised small intestines and meat dumplings were quite delicious.
Hachiman ate two large bowls in a row. Suzune's craftsmanship has improved once again.

"Your phone keeps ringing." She looked at the table several times and then said to Hikigaya-kun who had finished washing in the kitchenette.
However, reason why she paid attention to it was probably because she was using the table to study and drink her coffee, so Hachiman's phone kept vibrating due to receiving messages, which affected her.
"It should be to report the situation." Hachiman wiped his hands with a towel and walked over and said.
He picked up his phone.
Then he showed an expression that said, "As expected." Because he did receive several messages.
Three of them were from Karuizawa.
Two of them by Kushida-chan.
What Karuizawa sent is that questions for this exam, which are now being circulated in a small circle, will include option of dropping out of school.
Someone may need to drop out.
The information from Kushida is more useful.
She revealed that she was one who spread the rumor there was an option to drop out in exam questions, but it was Ike who knelt down and asked her for help.
It seems that he felt if this kind of test question really appeared, he would most likely be expelled because he is currently ranked last in OAA system.
If a student really has to drop out, he becomes very dangerous.
So he hoped that he could be kept. If you had to drop out of school, could just expel Koenji.
Because of uninhabited island exam, Koenji won first place and was given a place to protect his expulsion.
Therefore, if someone must drop out, blame should be put on Koenji.
Then he will only lose one place, but no reduction in number of students.
But can't say this directly, otherwise Koenji will hold a grudge against Ike.
So he hoped that Kushida would spread rumors that he would have to drop out of school because of this exam.
Once this situation occurs, someone will definitely think of Koenji.
So if someone can convince, then he will be safe.
But she didn't think Ike would be that smart.
Hachiman recalled what Hiyori said when she stopped him from leaving the classroom, which meant that person behind Ike should be Ryuen.
It was his advice.
Hachiman didn't think that Ryuen simply wanted to place a loyal spy in Horikita's class.
After all, this spy OAA is ranked very low and has nothing outstanding of his own, so when he can play a role, you have to help him several times to keep him safe.
Then loss will outweigh the gain.
Ryuen is also dark. Maybe he just took advantage of Ike Kanji when he came to ask for help.
Now there is only one Koenji left in Horikita's class, and he is still working hard. Although he has become passive, indeed a potential thorn.
If Ryuen can walk Koenji out in a disgusting way, then Horikita's class will definitely go down like a stream of water into mud.
Therefore, Ryuen can return to C.
Although he gave up his ambition to be promoted to Class A with the whole class, Ryuen still felt bad that he was originally a student in Class C.
Want to take back the glory that belongs to Class C.
Thinking of this, Hachiman put down his phone and looked at Horikita Suzune who was studying.
'I have to say that girls who study hard are very attractive, and at first glance, you can be sure that Horikita will have a promising future.'
"What do you think about this special exam, Horikita-san?"
"....." Suzune felt something was very wrong with his behaviour.
Even put down the book she was reading, and looked at Hikigaya-kun with a hint of disgust.
