COTE : Backed By Black Technology System

After school, Hirata stood on the podium as he had informed everyone in the morning and began preparing for the strategy meeting on the blackboard.

After exchanging glances with Kanda Shuichi, Hirata nodded and prepared to start.

"Hirata, if you have a solution, just say it quickly."

Seeing the delay, Ike immediately urged, and Sudou nearby impatiently echoed.

"That's right, I still have to go to club activities."

"Actually, my solution is very simple, just give points to everyone."

Simple? Indeed simple.

"But, don't we already have no points?"

"That's true, so I'll cover this part."

"You, you mean you'll cover the living expenses of the whole class? But your points should..."

Seeing Hirata's calm expression, many in the class showed surprised expressions.

Then, Hirata took out his phone and opened his student ID page.

"400,000 points?"

"What?"

"This, how is this possible? How did you do it?"

"Isn't it against school rules to have a part-time job?"

When they saw the number of private points on Hirata's phone, almost everyone in the class gasped, and some even looked hostile.

Why are my points gone, but this guy still has 400,000 points?

"I can't reveal where these 400,000 private points came from, but I plan to use them to help everyone."

Of course, the 2 million points from Chabashira-sensei are more than just these 400,000, but if I reveal all 2 million points, it might cause unnecessary trouble.

So, the remaining points are temporarily kept by Kanda Shuichi, apart from the 1.6 million points left, Hirata also has several tens of thousands of points for living expenses.

"But if we divide these 400,000 points among the class, each person would only get about 10,000 points, right?"

"That's too little."

"But it's better than nothing."

Some students focused on the fact that each person would only get 10,000 points, but others were more concerned about how Hirata got these 400,000 points and whether they could replicate this to get more points.

"But I don't plan to give these 400,000 points away for free."

The class immediately quieted down because they had no choice. As someone said earlier, it's better than nothing.

Then, Hirata revealed his true purpose.

"In three weeks, we will have our first midterm exam. According to Chabashira-sensei, if we fail, we will be expelled."

"I don't want that to happen. I don't want to be separated from everyone."

Kushida Kikyo, good job!

Hearing this, Kanda Shuichi looked at Hirata Yosuke, as if asking, "Did you arrange this?" If not, then this is too perfect.

At least that sentence was said at the right time, and it was very important.

The most important thing is that it was said by Kushida, who has the most friends in the class, so it didn't feel out of place. Everyone would believe she really meant it.

Hirata shook his head slightly, indicating he didn't know, but it didn't stop him from seizing this rare opportunity.

"So, I plan to organize a study group after school. Starting next Monday, we will study for two hours every day for ten days. Anyone who participates will get 1,000 private points."

"Also, I hope everyone will pay attention in class. Otherwise, I won't give out the private points."

Using private points to motivate these spendthrifts is the simplest and most effective method. This was Kanda Shuichi's idea after getting the investment from Chabashira-sensei.

Simple, but effective, right?

The study group is just a way to improve the class's average academic performance. The news about being expelled for failing the midterm was just a convenient excuse.

Even without this news, Hirata would have found another reason to get everyone to work together.

Once the class starts cooperating, although there might be some unpleasantness at first, if they stick with it until the end, even this lousy class should change for the better.

So, a class leader must be chosen. Kanda Shuichi took action and pushed Hirata into that position.

Now, it's Hirata's turn to make a decision. Even though he might not want to force his classmates, he still did it.

But then again, he is not really forcing them. If they don't want to join the study group, they don't have to.

"I still have club activities to attend. If you want to do this, go ahead." With that, Sudou stood up, grabbed his bag, and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Hirata immediately wanted to persuade him to stay, but Kanda Shuichi spoke up first.

"Let him go. Let him cherish these last three weeks of club activities."

"What did you say? You jerk!" Sudou glared at Kanda Shuichi with fierce eyes, and Miyake immediately stood up, ready to stop Sudou.

"Nothing, you can go. When you get to the club, you might want to ask your seniors if any basketball team members have been expelled for failing exams."

"Oh, and if you want to hit me, go ahead. I won't fight back. Akito, you don't need to stop him. My body is weak, and one punch from him might seriously injure me. Then he'll not only be expelled but might also go to jail. How about it? Want to try?"

Kanda Shuichi continued to provoke the hot-tempered Sudou.

However, Sudou just clenched his fists tightly and left the classroom. He couldn't give up his future just to vent his anger.

He slammed the door hard as he left, venting his frustration.

Little did he know, his actions once again caused dissatisfaction among the class.

Seeing Sudou leave, Miyake also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, Shuichi, you shouldn't provoke that guy. If he really attacks, I can't guarantee I can stop him."

"Don't worry, if he really attacks me, I'll run while you're stopping him."

So you were just bluffing earlier. How much do you trust me to stop him for you?

...

"I support Hirata's decision. Anyone else want to leave? If you think you have enough points and study skills, you can go."

Kanda Shuichi asked this question on behalf of Hirata, and the class fell silent. At least Ike and his group of idiots didn't stand up.
