Soon, the Chinese class representative finished distributing the test papers and obediently returned to her seat.
"Everyone has received their test papers, right!" Shizuka Hiratsuka asked, but her tone showed no intention of asking at all.
"This time's exam, compared to the last one, the results make me very dissatisfied!"
"And... the lowest score in the class's history has appeared."
As she spoke, Shizuka Hiratsuka's gaze swept over the front row seats.
The students also checked their test papers one after another, hoping they weren't the one with the lowest score.
And May, naturally, knew it in her heart, guiltily lowering her head, praying not to be seen by me.
After seeing the score, she had already covered the test paper.
49 points... Out of a perfect score of 150, she didn't even get a third of the points!
Fortunately, only Shizuka Hiratsuka and the Chinese class representative knew this secret for now.
"You guys must have been playing all through the holidays!"
"Sigh..." After complaining, Shizuka Hiratsuka took a deep breath to calm her agitated emotions.
She sighed inwardly, there are so many problem students in this batch!
And some students who clearly had a good foundation were still going against her.
Sigh, I really want to go out and drink all night to relieve stress, these little brats don't show any consideration for her at all.
"Getting back to the main topic, we will now start explaining the test paper, everyone take good notes..."
As for Mochizuki, he scored 108 points.
Under Shizuka Hiratsuka's pressure, he also honestly took notes.
Mochizuki knew that May was undoubtedly the lowest score in the class, wishing her good luck.
... "Ring ring ring..." The bell for class dismissal rang, and the students, as if relieved, quietly let out a breath.
This class, finally, is over!
And when Shizuka Hiratsuka heard the bell, her brow furrowed slightly, and she immediately added, "Class dismissed, we will still be going over the test paper next class."
She had no intention of extending the class; what use would a few extra minutes of explanation be even if she did?
"Nakano May, and Mochizuki, come with me, bring your test papers."
Shizuka Hiratsuka spoke without question, and then took the lead in stepping out of the classroom.
It really is May... but why call me?
I scored quite normally... Mochizuki thought to himself.
And May was already holding her folded test paper, looking at Mochizuki with pleading eyes; she didn't dare face Shizuka Hiratsuka Teacher alone.
So, Mochizuki also picked up his test paper and followed Shizuka Hiratsuka with May.
"You must save me later," May whispered.
"We'll see."
"Ruthless..."
"You just snatched my steamed bun."
"It's not good for you to eat so much by yourself."
... Meanwhile, Shizuka Hiratsuka took the two of them to the classroom next door first.
Shizuka Hiratsuka stood at the doorway and looked towards a certain seat.
Seeing Shizuka Hiratsuka's arrival, the previously noisy classroom suddenly fell silent.
"Have Hikigaya come with me, bringing his Chinese test paper."
Hikigaya Hachiman, who was pretending to sleep with his head on the desk, was patted by the surrounding students.
"Hikigaya-kun, Shizuka Hiratsuka Teacher is looking for you, hurry up and go!"
"Okay..." Hikigaya Hachiman was very helpless.
This old woman, why is she looking for him again!
Is she here to find fault with his essay again?
Also, his name isn't Hikigaya... forget it, he's too lazy to correct them.
"It's not easy for Hikigaya-kun either, he's provoked Shizuka Hiratsuka Teacher."
"Yeah, yeah..."
... And so, Nakano May, Hikigaya Hachiman, and Mochizuki Yo, the three unlucky souls, followed behind Shizuka Hiratsuka all the way to the office.
The students in the corridor all showed expressions of schadenfreude.
Mochizuki felt, how is this situation so familiar!
He felt he was very innocent...
