COTE: A Man On A Mission || Love is War?

The pressure instantly came to Class B, and they needed to think it carefully.

Only. "Would Class A do such a ridiculous thing?" Kanzaki said after being silent for a while.

"So how do you think Class A can only deduct 4 points in 6 days?" Hachiman explained in detail, knowing these guys are now starting to take his poisonous bait, "If you look at the class evaluation scores of senior grades, you will find that their scores are not that exaggerated, which means that the points given by the school for special examinations every month are not that high."

Just give them a few more chocolates!

"In other words, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, once your class surpasses them by a few hundred points, or even close to 1,000 points, then even if you want to catch up, you may need five or six consecutive wins."

"And do you have the confidence to win five or six times in a row? Of course, this is just a risk I raised." Hachiman then finally straightened his back, and said some sweet but dangerous things, "Students in Class A don't have to choose to do this kind of evil thing."

They don't have to choose to do this, but what if they actually do it? Can Class B take it?

Now they are Class B, but if they are really framed by a conspiracy and become Class D, even if everyone wants to work hard, but they continue to hit the wall, the consequences will be unimaginable.

And. What Hikigaya-kun said is that once you are down by points, it will take five or six times to climb up.

The question is can they really climb?

It would be better to say that they who have just entered school have not yet realized that this is a place where strength is paramount.

Until the head teacher told them the essence of this school the day before yesterday, they were still kept in the dark.

On the other hand, look at Class A. 4 points will be deducted for 6 days.

This is very scary. It was like understanding the rules of this school from the beginning.

At this moment. A feeling of inferiority arises. Thinking like this, the two representatives of Class B became cautious.

"Sorry." Ichinose Honami apologized, her face looked guilty, "We looked down upon you just now."

Hachiman did not answer immediately. Manipulating other people's heart is a serious matter.

Because in the face of arrogant words, there is no point in giving in. What is needed is to fight back with real swords and guns without any compromise!

"So regarding the alliance, what do you need us to do? And, of course, since it is an alliance, the students in Class D may also be able to assist us." Ichinose said, now looking very eager to listen to Hachiman's proposal.

And this means that Class B is willing to form an alliance. Although the various configurations of Class D are terrible.

Once the alliance is formed, there is a high probability that Class B will provide support.

In fact, as soon as the students in Class B started to enroll, the atmosphere was very good, and everyone felt like they were little angels.

Even though the teacher explained the school's rules the day before yesterday, everyone didn't pay much attention to class ranking.

But after Hikigaya-kun's description, it's very scary, because once they are attacked by Class A and fall, their classmates may not be able to enjoy the wonderful campus life.

Although this has not happened, as long as there is this risk, I don't want it to happen.

So, they are ready to form an alliance with Class D, without even knowing what kind of ghost proposal this was?

"Once Class A wants to hire us to do some dirty tricks, our class will refuse." Hachiman said. "And when you are in danger, we will also attack."

"And the agreement has been written." Hachiman then looked at his daughter. To be honest he really felt like a parent, for taking this small child under his shadow.

When Horikita Suzune arrived, she was reading a vocabulary book alone, but at that time Kushida-san also noticed that she had brought a folder.

And now. The folder opens.

Two contracts were taken out.

She handed them to Ichinose and Kanzaki respectively, and then naturally kept one for herself.

Kushida can see the words above.

　　[BD Alliance Agreement

First, in examinations on various occasions, both sides are not allowed to attack each other to gain points by deleting the other class.

Second, when Class D is in danger, Class B needs to do its best to support it.

When Class B is in danger, Class D provides (reasonable) assistance.

Third, when the points of two classes are very close, the alliance will be invalid. ]

The alliance's contract is very simple.

And because of Hachiman's threats, neither Ichinose nor Kanzaki wanted to take the risk.

But after taking the agreement, the two read it several times, and then they put the contract on the table,

"Hikigaya-kun, Horikita-san and Kushida-san, your contract... is very unreasonable."

"Why is it that, when Class D is in danger, Class B needs to do its best to help, but on the other hand, you are providing just so-called reasonable help?" Ichinose made a long face, it sounds like they're getting ripped off.

It is indeed very unreasonable.

"Is this what you feel dissatisfied about?" Hachiman did not answer her directly, knowing he was scamming these people.

"...That's it." Ichinose and Kanzaki looked at each other, and then nodded to Hachiman, "If you change the second point, then we can accept it."

"Okay, then. When Class B is in danger, Class D will try its best to help." With that said, Hachiman looked at Horikita Suzune.

Horikita-san took out a new contract from the folder. And the second clause in the contract was changed to what he just said.

It became an equal contract. Eh!

So, did you deliberately give them an unreasonable contract at the beginning?

"Sure enough, Hikigaya-kun may be a very unusual person." Ichinose said, while scratching her cheek "It was announced on the bulletin board that a boy named, Hikigaya-kun was deducted points for destroying the camera."

"Now that I think about it, it was probably..... Hikigaya-kun, who wanted to announce the school's rules in advance." Ichinose gulped slightly before continuing, she didn't expect things to be this scary.

Are students in Class D really so terrible?!

"And we, Class B, are also thankful to you. Otherwise, based on our previous attitude towards life, I'm afraid we will have deducted another two to three hundred points at the end of this month." Ichinose felt the difference.

Sure enough, what her mother told her was right, she shouldn't judge a book by looking at it's cover.

These people were obviously just looking down on them a while ago, but now they even felt grateful that Hachiman brought such a proposal to them, it even felt like a licking behaviour.

Both Kushida and Horikita were astonished, by the turnout of this situation. They both looked at their leader with eyes full of shock?!

With that said, Ichinose then put her hands flat, "Then... from today until the contract is invalidated, our alliance is established. Let me introduce myself again, I am Ichinose Honami from Class B."

"Kanzaki Ryuji."

"Horikita Suzune."

"Hikigaya Hachiman."

"Kushida Kikyo."

So, on this day, it lasted for half a year. The BD class offensive and defensive alliance was officially established.

But. "Since we have formed an alliance, let me share this information with you." Hachiman then looked at Kushida-san.

She immediately handed one of the three stacks of documents in her hand to Ichinose.

"This is..." Kanzaki seemed to have not yet reacted.

But on the other hand, Ichinose felt quite surprised by Class D's administration, are these two people Hikigaya-kun's Assistants?

"This is a roster for the whole grade. Since there is competition between classes, it is reasonable to be familiar with all the student's information," Hachiman said, as if it's the most obvious thing.

Forehead. Really?

Kanzaki-kun and Ichinose-san looked at each other. Their initial contempt for Class D was indeed undesirable.

Because, if you don't pay attention to anything, then maybe... you don't just need to worry about whether Class A will do something evil to them this month, I always feel that they themselves will fall.

They both needed to reflect.

...

Because it was a day off and Ichinose-san was a busy person, she was quickly asked out.

Kanzaki didn't seem to be very talkative, so he smiled and left with a slightly embarrassed smile.

So, now only Hikigaya and the others are left in the cafe. Since they were in the store, the three of them ordered food.

After all, it's almost noon now. While waiting for the meal.

Hachiman discovered a strange thing about Kushida-san, that is, she was always everyone's little angel, someone whom everyone trusted and relied on, but she didn't even look at her phone.

Apparently there are 67 groups on her phone.

"By the way, Kushida didn't you get an appointment with anyone?" Hachiman asked.

"I posted on the chat software that I wanted to sleep in today," Kushida said, looking up at Hachiman with admiration.

It's more important to follow boss's orders than fooling around with her friends. Kushida-san has priorities.

In other words, you tacitly asked people not to disturb you, and then you followed them out?

Then you are amazing. Take them so seriously.

But this means that Kushida-san's daily life is very hard.

If you are too popular, you will not have any free time of your own. Then if friends have all kinds of troubles, then they have to help in various ways.

However, Hachiman found the little angel Kushida staring at him.

"B-Hikigaya-kun..." She finally opened her mouth, "Aren't you a very smart person?"

Very smart? Horikita Suzune originally maintained a cold attitude.

She just recalled the negotiation process with Class B.

A little bit regretful. She was of no use, and even made Class B look down upon them.

But. "Is it really possible that Class B will fall and become Class D?" Kushida was curious, she knew her boss was quite evil.

"That's not certain," Hachiman said. "It's just an idea. If I were in Class A, then I might do this."

"Because as long as there is a gap of close to 1,000 points, it will be difficult for the opponent to catch up."

"Moreover, now during the conduct assessment period, As long as you induce the opponent to make illegal actions, they will be deducted a lot of points."

"So this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Hachiman said, giving her some good advice on how to attack other classes.

That's it. Horikita-san and Kushida stopped talking about anything else.

After all, it is better to think about how to prevent the points of your class from being deducted so harshly.

________

After a meal.

Horikita probably thought that since she came to the shopping street, then should also pay a visit to the market.

She wanted to replenish the ingredients and buy slippers for the guests that Kushida-san might use.

'In other words, did I gain permission to enter Horikita Suzune's dormitory?'

'Hey, Isn't that a good thing?!' But, Kushida-san was still quite critical of this.

'Because you, Horikita Suzune, are so picky, I have to work for you when I drink your water, and also lick your shoes afterwards when you give it to me?!

The salary given is not high at all!

What was that saying, "Like Father, Like Daughter?!" Kushida-san experienced it in real life.

"Then I'll go first," But it was Hachiman who disrupted her vicious thoughts, "Take this document."

He gave one of the three, to Ichinose and the others, and then Hachiman took one himself, but gave the last one to his Assistants.

"As for Horikita and Kushida, I think it's best for you to read it properly."

"You can learn about the classmates in the same grade, it'll be very helpful to identify some random characters."

The information on this roster is not much actually, just the information on the student ID cards.

Then photos are attached. But since the student council can sell it for a high price of 100,000, it shows that the school is very cautious in protecting student's information.

Only. 'Is he asking me to recite this information for having a test later?'

But Suzune then shook her head, she doesn't think it's the same.

It's probably like, 'I hope she will memorize it and then ask her to point it out when needed.'

Although she thought this boy might be slacking off, Suzune, who had just been useless in the alliance, accepted it honestly.

Only.

"It seems that Hikigaya-kun went back in a direction other than the dormitory," She said, while looking at his back.

"Ah...well, that's it." Kushida also reacted, slightly taken aback by this small talk, "He still has something to do."

"..." However. 'Horikita-san was talking to me just now, right?'

'This girl is very excessive....Only talks to me, when she wants to get information!'

But now Kushida had to reply to the other party, after all, she had to build up a good impression.

Being able to come to this school made her feel like she had gained a new life, but then found out...that there were classmates from the same junior high school as her.

Who were such difficult people like Horikita Suzune, which made her feel unwelcome.

And then she comes under the tutelage of Hikigaya Hachiman.

Kushida always felt like it was a torture!

__________

The time is twelve o'clock noon.

Canteen private room on the third floor.

Today is the weekend, but Sakayanagi Arisu still came out. Only.

This lovely classmate Sakayanagi was not wearing casual clothes, and was still wearing her school uniform.

"Ara, isn't this Hikigaya-kun? Why, do you want to have dinner together today?"

"I have no intention of spending money for others." Sakayanagi said first, knowing the other person's beautiful nature of eating free lunch.

She was not alone. Kamuro-san was on one side, but lying on a chair on the other side was a small orange cat that was larger than the palm of her hand.

Probably Sakayanagi Arisu's cat, but Hachiman felt it looked more like a tiger. He also has a cat named Kamakura at home.

So I don't hate cats.

"Meow meow--"

Sakayanagi's cat was probably a bitch. After finding someone coming in, she jumped out of the chair and ran towards Hachiman.

"Meow meow--" Its eyes are big and round, as if there is light.

And this kind of cat wants to be touched at first sight.

It's a pity that Hachiman has been giving up cats for a week.

So when it tried to climb up his trouser legs, Hachiman picked it up and put it aside, and then opened his mouth. "Actually, I'm here to sell information."

"Because we are acquaintances, I made a concession on the price. I am only charging 80,000 points for the price of 100,000.... and I think you might need it." After saying this, Hachiman placed the printed document in front of Sakayanagi Arisu.

The first student information, Hachiman, has also been slightly adjusted.

　　[Name: Sakayanagi Arisu

　　Class: First-year Class A Student

　　ID: 1450520]

　　Then there is a one-inch photo belonging to Sakayanagi Arisu on one side.

Although it doesn't have any specific content, it is at most similar to asking someone to confirm your name and the class you are in.

Only. "...." Sakayanagi.

"Kamuro-san." She glanced at this data, and called her in a low voice.

The girl in question, immediately looked over, "Get money."

"..." Kamuro-san. 'Why are you asking for my points?'

But when Sakayanagi again looked over at her confused pet, to check why there's no response.

'All right' Although Kamuro remained silent, she listened with her ears.

It is not uncommon for Class A to know that information can be bought and sold.

It would be better to say that they collected all the points on the first day of enrollment to acquire the rules of this school.

And now. What Hikigaya Hachiman brings is probably the same thing as the entire grade roster.

Although classmates in the class are also collecting information about students in other classes, it would be more beneficial to have this information.

Class A is now divided into two camps: The Sakayanagi Institute and Katsuragi's kindergarten.

The few remaining neutrals have also chosen their direction. So, now the two factions are fighting.

Although neither of their leaders seemed to have any intention of fighting, the subordinates of both sides felt that they had to understand their leader's ideas in order to maintain their status in Class A and eventually graduate as Class A.

It's just that a class cannot have two opinions. And Katsuragi is an honest person, he doesn't want to bully Sakayanagi using violence, knowing how weak this girl is.

Therefore, there is a bit of internal fighting to get the other party to be completely obedient.

And this kind of information that obtains data from the whole grade can naturally be regarded as the content of the battle.

"Beep!"

"80,000 personal points have been credited to your personal account. The transfer party is SH144500." Hachiman checked his phone.

Sakayanagi is indeed a rich Lolita, and Hachiman also became a little happy after getting his money back.

"But." Although she paid 80,000 points at once, Sakayanagi didn't care.

"Hikigaya-kun suddenly started buying and selling information after I told him yesterday is that I hope you will treat class competition more carefully." She looked quite happy that the opponent has finally started to take action.

"The second purpose of coming here today is this." Hachiman nodded, "We, Class D and Class B, have formed an alliance. I just want to tell you the news." He said while looking at her facial expressions.

Only. "Don't expect to see any information from my face!" Sakayanagi exposed his plan, outright, very familiar with this kind of behaviour.

"It's fun to defeat Class B all at once... She paused, and then sighed heavily, "But in that case, campus life will become boring again."

After all, Class B is close to the top in strength. If it is defeated all at once, then there will be almost no suspense in the class war.

But this became boring for Class A's princess.

Obviously, Sakayanagi Arisu, a lolita, really puts her personal interests above class competition.

It's just not okay to be unconvinced.

After all, she was born in Rome.

Opponents are too weak.

So, she didn't bother to go out. 'But this means that you didn't take action....but others in your class did.'

The time for the code of the conduct exam continues. So if something goes wrong at this stage, big points can be deducted.

Students in Class A are unlikely to take matters into their own hands.

Class D, where Hachiman is located, has not received any information. In other words, Class C, which has never been seen or paid attention to, may be dispatched.

And if Class C can also take action, that means that except for the simpler students in Class B, the remaining three classes all... want to rush into Class A.

And... Hachiman's Class D will probably bear the brunt of this.

Damn it!

'It's really terrible, I just told Ichinose that her class could be attacked by dark methods.... but it turned out that a bomb had already been placed inside my own class?!'

Hachiman felt like he really gained something today, Sakayanagi Arisu is really a good person behind her evil heart. She has already helped him so many times.

"...." Sakayanagi. This smiling girl didn't know at that time, but she unconsciously betrayed the class again.

__________

On Monday. Physical education class.

"Eight hundred meters..."

"One thousand meters..."

"It's so devilish!"

The students had physical education classes, and Hachiman's class first performed long-distance running.

"Your physical fitness is actually quite good." The girls' team has finished running, and most of them who are not physically fit are already sitting on the lawn to rest.

The first batch of students on the boys side have also reached the finish line and can rest.

Hachiman walked over to the black-haired and fox-eyed girl who was sitting quietly, and Suzune also looked over.

Praise was given. Do you think Hachiman's physical fitness is good?

'No, my performance is very ordinary. Rather, in the eyes of Horikita, it is actually very bad, right?'

'But don't you dare underestimate the physical ability of an autistic teenager who usually stays at home!

Hachiman can also run very fast. Um.

'When I was chasing a cat that was running around....'

But there's no need to tell that to the other party, and Hachiman kept his mouth shut on this matter.

"Among the girls, my physical fitness is pretty good, and so is Kushida-san's, but there is one girl who needs attention." Horikita said, while looking over at other students.

"The girl named Onodera-san must have participated in some kind of sports club in the past. Her starting and running postures seemed to have been corrected."

Yes. Hachiman is sure that people who are determined to be promoted to Class A are different.

Daughter Horikita is doing a good job now. She's collecting information spontaneously.

But Hachiman still thinks, that she's just bitter about losing to her in a swimming competition.

But he didn't say it out loud for his own safety.

Onodera. Hachiman stared at the short-haired girl with slightly dark skin who looked relaxed after running 800 meters.

"If it's Onodera-san, she actually joined the track and field club when she was in junior high school, but she preferred swimming, and now she seems to be hesitant in high school." came a cute voice.

The first thing that appeared was a cute girl with blond hair and a figure that belonged to Class D.

It's Kushida Kikyo. OK

'Kushida-san, you came to talk to me today too.... But we didn't say anything bad about you!'

"But the one with the best athletic ability is Sudo-kun." Only, she continued to contribute information, although everyone knew this.

Because this guy is like a cheater.

The boy who had not finished the 1,000 meters looked desperately at the tall boy with short red hair who was riding away from the crowd.

"But it's not just Sudo." Kushida continued to add, more.

Because if you look over, you will see that Sudo has clearly reached the finish line, but he is provoking a boy with blond hair and red eyes.

"Koenji!"

"Run seriously against me!"

"Although I lost to you in swimming, I will never lose to you in running!"

Sudo was provoking Koenji Rokusuke. But his vocabulary is quite limited, and repeating the same words.

It's definitely not Author-san's fault, Hachiman was sure.

Koenji easily defeated Sudo in swimming lessons, creating a dark shadow over his heart.

He felt the difference between a dick and a human, who was apparently a monster in disguise.

So, Sudo was very unconvinced.

"As for Koenji-kun, his academic ability is very strong." Horikita Suzune continued, with her eyes looking over at Kushida-san. Not wanting to lose to the other party.

OK. Horikita-san is also contributing information, but apparently her focus is different.

'Are you a little unconvinced? Is this girl jealous again?' But this is really peaceful.

Hachiman looked at his classmates who were weak in sports and weak in academics.

According to his speculation, although Sakayanagi Arisu disdained to take action, for the other students in Class A, this month was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to draw points with Class B.

Class A could have taken advantage of the fact that other classes didn't know the nature of this school and deducted points heavily.

But now the school rules notify you in advance.

Therefore, as long as the binding force is implemented together, the major points deductions for the four classes will be reduced.

'But now that Class A's advantage is thrown away in the trash, can the students in this class be so calm?'

According to Hachiman's conjecture, Class A can definitely hire Class C to take action.

The probability of Class C directly rushing to Class B is low, so it may be tested with Class D first.

But things are relaxed now, only the shitty time came quickly.

____________

School is over in the afternoon.

Shopping streets, electrical appliance stores.

"Are you sure, this is your camera?" The clerk in a red uniform handed over a camera. "Please check it, and if it is correct, please sign here."

And there is only one reason why Hachiman is here.

When he was out of school, he received a message from the staff of the electronics store, stating that the camera had been repaired and could be used at any time.

Previously, because he discovered that there was something wrong with the store clerk, he, as a representative, made up his name and then left his mobile phone number.

But now, it is normal for him to go get it.

Because the procedure was simple, after confirming that the camera could operate normally, Hachiman left the store.

But he didn't go very far. He looked to the right and walked over, where there was a girl who seemed very nervous.

Her outfit is a bit rustic and has a low sense of presence.

But, this is Sakura Airi. Her mood was tense, very busy spinning in a small circle.

Then murmured. "I need to tell Hikigaya-kun later..."

"Tell him thank you..."

"So, can I treat you to dinner to say thank you..."

"Then let me eat, Hikigaya-kun..."

"Hikigaya-kun, please join me...

" ..."

"Hikigaya-kun, please eat me." Sakura is doing training.

"Sakura?" Hikigaya came over, hurriedly. 'What is this girl chanting quietly?'

"Eh?" The girl seemed to be in a daze for a moment, then.

"Hey!" She seemed to be frightened. "Well, um, did you hear that?"

"Huh?" Hachiman showed a puzzled expression.

"Well, it's nothing," Sakura said quickly, seemingly relieved.

'But not only did I hear it, I also saw the way you were training just now.'

'This girl is so cute' Hachiman thought to himself.

Then handed her the camera. "Check it out. I don't know much about cameras but I can confirm that there is no problem with turning it on." Hachiman said.

"Well, thank you, Hikigaya-kun." Sakura thanked him quickly. But she didn't check it immediately.

"Actually, the clerk was fired." Hachiman said. "So don't worry, he was reported for taking secret photos, so he can't enter this school."

"Hey, is that so?!" As the owner of the camera, Sakura naturally came to pick it up, but she is not very good at dealing with the clerk who made her feel uncomfortable.

That's why she stayed outside the store.

"Yeah." Hachiman said. "After we submitted the camera repair that day, the other party was reported and expelled from the school. Now all the staff working in the electrical appliance store are female."

"Surprisingly... like this." Although she said this, Sakura didn't look visibly relieved, she was feeling some intense jealous stares from multiple girls.

And she thought that these people are not nearby but very, very far away....

'Who are these unknown girls?

And, why are you targeting me like this?'

Sakura doesn't have anything, that other girls needed to be envious about? She doesn't even know the names of her classmates.

But, "Have you always been so intuitive about your likes and dislikes?" Hachiman asked.

"Eh..."

"My... intuition?" Sakura blinked lightly, her thoughts were suddenly interrupted.

"Probably something similar to a sixth sense." Hachiman wondered and couldn't help himself but ask.

Sakura didn't tell him about her past as a graphic idol, so he also concealed the fact that the clerk was her morbid fanboy.

After all, if this was exposed, Sakura would immediately know that he had seen her selfie, and recognised her as Shizuku.

It's just that this innocent girl didn't know that the clerk was her perverted fan, but she still turned out to be so repulsive towards him.

The instinctive ability to distinguish is also too strong. It's like a superpower given by a powerful person.

Hachiman doesn't know such people, he only talks to Author-san sometimes to gain his advice.

'So, is it your doing Author-san?' Hachiman was thinking strange things.

But he didn't know that Author-san's hands were sweating, this guy is too poisonous!

"Well..."

"How should I put it?" Sakura gently raised a hand and put it on her chest. "My sixth sense is sometimes very accurate."

"Then... I actually feel uncomfortable today."

Not feeling well?

"Originally, I planned to take pictures over there in the laboratory building today," Sakura said, looking quite nervous and timid "But I always think it's better not to go there...."

Right. 'So, you think something might happen there?'

Hachiman can only imagine under desk blow-jobs. He has already seen such obscene things in his junior high school. So, he had some vague ideas of what might be going on?
