Horikita didn't have many friends; she was always alone.
And if you asked her, her reply would be, "Huh? I've been alone for nine years, and even longer if you count kindergarten."
So, she didn't have much experience interacting with others.
Perhaps it was because he entered a girl's room, Hachiman found himself a bit unstable.
However, Horikita's room was still very reassuring.
The girls' dormitory layout was the same as the boys', both being four by five in size.
A single bed, a computer desk, a swivel chair, an intercom phone on the computer desk, a storage cabinet next to it, and an air conditioner above the computer desk.
Directly opposite the entrance was the bed, and to the right of the entrance was a bathroom and toilet.
The wall outside the bathroom was the wardrobe.
And from the entrance to the bed, there was also a simple kitchen.
This was everything in the room.
It was simple, but very complete.
For students, it was definitely an excellent environment.
But after all, she was a girl, Horikita had still put up wallpaper, making it much more feminine.
She also made some arrangements that gave it a lived-in feel.
The kitchen also showed signs of use, and the table was covered with a tablecloth.
It made one feel quite comfortable, like visiting someone else's home.
But he wasn't there to observe someone else's dormitory.
"So, you signed an agreement with Teacher Chabashira?" Horikita Suzune said.
In her dormitory, she found Hikigaya's call, and after answering, she heard his conversation with Teacher Chabashira.
"More or less." Hachiman said.
And Hachiman took out the agreement.
The words about leading Class D to Class A, and Teacher Chabashira paying 10 to 30 million in cash, were quite clear.
"And if we reach Class A, I get the cash, Teacher Chabashira fulfills her regret, and you gain your brother's approval. This is a win-win plan for all three parties." Hachiman said.
"..." Horikita Suzune.
Horikita seemed to be considering the feasibility of this matter.
And earlier, being assigned to Class D would embarrass her brother; she had already confirmed this point.
At the same time, because of her foolishness, her brother lost 1 million point.
She already knew this point as well.
She was indeed still useless.
And even if she was useless, she still wanted to try to salvage the situation.
So, Hikigaya's idea of promoting to Class A was still worth considering.
But.
"You talk about Class D being so hopeless, and then there's really still a chance to climb up?" Horikita Suzune said.
Hachiman probably called her when Chabashira revealed she was rich.
So, she also heard Hachiman's subsequent polite refusal of Chabashira's reason for leading the Class to graduate as Class A.
And this was also a point Horikita Suzune was considering.
She found it very tricky.
...
"No Class D has ever successfully pulled off an upset and promoted to Class A in this school." Hachiman said.
"Even Class D promoting to Class C or B is very rare, so even if you just lead the Class to Class B, your brother will probably approve of you."
"So your goal doesn't need to be Class A." Hachiman said.
"Then you're going to reject Teacher Chabashira's agreement?" Horikita quickly pressed.
"No." Hachiman shook his head. "Actually, there's a reason why I agreed to Teacher Chabashira so quickly."
"Because our current Class D has a chance to try and make a run for Class A."
"If it's for three consecutive years, normally at a frequency of one special exam per month."
"Then there will be over thirty assessments in three years."
"As a Class that lacks in all aspects, we definitely can't handle such intensive exams."
"But it's just the beginning of the school year."
"And you've seen the school rules I showed you. At the time of enrollment, the four Classes of new students start from the same baseline."
"They all have 1000 Class evaluation points."
"And the living expenses are also the same, all 100,000 points."
"It's still [fair]."
"So we can start from this point. If we lay a good foundation here, then if we can hold out through a few more exams and get good scores, then perhaps we can successfully rise to Class A." Hikigaya said.
"..." Horikita Suzune.
"..." Horikita Suzune.
"What's wrong?"
Hikigaya noticed Horikita's silent expression.
"It's not me raining on your parade." Horikita Suzune said. "According to the school rules you obtained, a one-month behavior assessment began on our first day of enrollment."
"How many points do you think ordinary students have lost?"
"...Rather, this assessment only evaluates the basic qualities a student should have. Why are there so many people making small movements in Class, playing with their phones, reading manga, sleeping soundly, or being late?" Horikita Suzune said.
"%..."
Okay.
You, the good student, don't need to say anything.
And Hikigaya was sure he had lost points.
For example, he had also looked at his phone in Class.
And there were times when he zoned out.
For example, sitting next to Horikita, when he got tired during Class, he could sometimes look at her to recharge his energy. After all, she's a top-tier beautiful girl, and her serious demeanor is like a painting.
Although she's as cold as ice, after interacting with her, he found... she's still ice.
But at least she's nice to look at.
And Horikita, your evaluation of behavioral norms is a bit one-sided. Because there are cameras everywhere in the school, with so many cameras, they don't just capture performance in Class.
They also capture students' behavior during breaks and even during leisure time.
So you're too naive if you think points are only deducted during Class.
Classmates are losing points in all sorts of places.
However, even thinking about this...
It truly feels despairing.
This is also why Hikigaya told Chabashira, 'You might be overestimating this year's Class D.'
Because Sakayanagi said that in previous years, Class D could still have four or five hundred points left after the first month.
But the current situation might be even worse than in previous years.
What kind of hidden talents and prodigies have gathered in this Grade?
"Even so." Hikigaya finally said. "But where there's a will, there's a way. I think there's still a solution."
