"What's happening here?"

Dongfang Yi covered his mouth and asked softly to Morishita Lan beside him: "Didn't they say that there are five neutrals including me?"

"Now there are only three left."

"What about the other two?"

"Shimizu Naoki and Sanada Yasuo voluntarily abstained from voting and have already gone out to stand guard. Yano Koharu and Tsukachi Shiori both voted for Sakayanagi."

Morishita Lan quickly explained the situation. Although she was also a lone ranger similar to Dongfang Yi, her connections were obviously much better than his.

"...What about the other person in the classroom who didn't vote besides me?"

Dongfang Yi spoke quickly. He had a hunch that Hashimoto would probably not miss this opportunity.

I'm going to be pulled out soon.

"Sorry, I don't know."

Morishita Lan sighed and said, "Dongfang-san, I have a request. I beg you to postpone this election."

"It's hard to win with your choice."

“But we still want to keep trying.”

"What if Katsuragi is targeted?"

"We all have the potential to be targeted, but he will definitely be under the most pressure."

"Did he stand up on his own?" Dongfang Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at Ge Cheng beside the podium.

Morishita Lan followed his gaze and said, "We didn't ask him for anything."

"I have conditions."

"You said."

"After this is over, find someone to beat up Totsuka and Hashimoto."

Dongfang Yi sighed.

He has sorted out the logic -

The students in Class A are not fools.

Everyone knows that Arisu Sakayanagi is someone you can't afford to offend, and everyone also knows that her personality might not make her care so much about graduating from Class A.

But there is nothing they can do.

So some people choose to join, while others waver.

There is also a group that recognizes Katsuragi's abilities and wants to nominate him to prevent the evil little princess from ruling the domain.

However, the people who recommended Katsuragi obviously didn't think it was a good idea to offend Sakayanagi Arisu.

So they did not force Katsuragi to come forward.

But after Katsuragi took the initiative to stand up, this group of students who had been hiding in the dark gave him all their opinions and wishes, and gave him absolute support, even going so far as to vote with their real names, not wanting him to fail.

Therefore, the authority to decide class division now,

Before he knew it, it had been handed into the hands of this lazy slacker who was too lazy to vote.

On the stage, Yahiko Totsuka looked at Katsuragi, then turned to Hashimoto, undecided for a moment.

"It looks like we're tied this time. Why don't we fight again another day?" he suggested tentatively.

"Draw? Who told you it was a draw?" Hashimoto naturally couldn't let Sakayanagi lose in the event he hosted.

"What? You can't afford to lose! Katsuragi-sama got 16 votes, and Sakayanagi also got 16 votes. What else could it be but a tie?"

Totsuka questioned.

"Oh, don't be impatient. There are still people in this classroom who haven't voted yet."

Hashimoto originally wanted to say that there were still two people who had not voted, but somehow, he could only think of Dongfang Yi's name and could not remember the existence of the other person.

But this didn't stop him from pulling Dongfang Yi out. He didn't believe that Dongfang Yi would be so ignorant. "Don't you think so, Dongfang?"

"Yes, I haven't made a choice yet."

Dongfang Yi straightened his expression and answered calmly.

"Who are you going to choose then?"

Hashimoto is more powerful.

"Hashimoto, don't be so anxious. Do you already have a girlfriend and it's almost time for a date?"

Dongfang Yi stood up, his tone relaxed and comfortable. The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly relaxed, and some people even laughed quietly.

Only Hashimoto licked the corner of his mouth and said no more.

He walked straight towards the podium and said, "This question is indeed an extremely difficult decision for me, just like it is for everyone in this room."

"Her Royal Highness is gifted, academically excellent, gentle and kind, and possesses exceptional insight. With just a few words, she can help lost students overcome their inner difficulties and point the way forward for them."

Dongfang Yi leisurely reworded Sakayanagi Arisu's attempt to gain her favor: "At the same time, Her Highness has also been quietly contributing to the class. Especially in terms of academics, Her Highness has been helping those around her who are having difficulties. I think Kamuro, who has always been under Her Highness's guidance, should have a deep understanding of this."

“Yes, that’s right.”

Masumi Kamuro, who finally had the chance to slack off, was suddenly mentioned by name and nodded hurriedly.

After nodding, he finally reacted and glared at Dongfang Yi: Who are you calling the student with learning difficulties!

"So in my heart, Her Royal Highness has always been an excellent leader. I believe everyone here can see this."

Dongfang Yi ignored Kamuro's gaze and continued to use the Kwakwa Card on Sakayanagi Arisu.

The white-haired loli narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling very comfortable.

"So, do you want to choose Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

But how could Hashimoto give Dongfang Yi the opportunity to gain favor with him, so he interrupted his speech.

"Hashimoto-kun, there's no girl waiting to go out with you, is there?" Dongfang Yi teased, "Is she from the student council? Maezono, Shinohara, or Tachibana-senpai?"

"I don't have such an agreement!" Hashimoto naturally couldn't let Dongfang Yi slander him.

"Yes, yes, this gentleman doesn't have any appointments next." Dongfang Yi said with a leisurely smile: "Let's get back to the point. Although Her Highness the Princess is an excellent leader, we cannot deny that Katsuragi-san is also qualified to be a leader."

"Katsuragi possesses exceptional composure and mental fortitude, and he dedicated a great deal to the class last month. We were able to maintain our 950-point class score this month largely due to Katsuragi's dedication, covering for the teacher in managing classroom discipline and providing a high-quality learning environment for us."

"It's such a hard-earned contribution that it's hard to refuse."

Dongfang Yi naturally couldn't praise Katsuragi in the same way he praised Sakayanagi. He had to highlight Katsuragi's hard work.

This is also a hint to Sakayanagi Arisu,

Tell the white-haired loli that today's failure was because the opponent had paid too much, and everyone couldn't bear to let the efforts of Katsuragi, the old workhorse, go to waste, so a draw occurred.

This is to minimize the petty-minded Loli's dissatisfaction with others.

"So who are you going to choose?" Hashimoto was getting a little impatient with him.

And Totsuka shut up at Katsuragi's hint and stood quietly aside.

"My choice, of course, is to stand with all my classmates."

Dongfang Yi's lips curled slightly, he tied his pockets and waited for Hashimoto to crawl in.

"Huh? What kind of answer is that?"

Hashimoto, who was in an anxious mood, didn't realize that this was a trap.

"Hashimoto, you're obsessed." Dongfang Yi shook his head. He gestured to the two candidates one by one: "Your Highness, Princess, Katsuragi-san."

Then he turned to the crowd and said, "And fellow students, I want to ask you a question: Is my vote important?"

Everyone was stunned by his question. Some thought it was important, some thought it was not important, and there was a lot of discussion.

Dongfang Yi raised his hands lightly, stopping everyone's discussion. "Actually, my vote is both important and unimportant. Think about it, everyone. When I make my choice, the balance of victory will definitely tilt towards one side. There's no doubt about it."

"But will my vote change the opinions of those students who rejected the winning team?"

"No, isn't it? After all, my vote is just a vote, a result without a process, so naturally no one will be convinced."

He smiled faintly and said, "Have you noticed that this election itself is problematic? The key to this problem lies with this rough and impulsive guy, Hashimoto Masayoshi."

Dongfang Yi pointed behind him, not giving Hashimoto any face at all: "It was this guy who didn't give Her Highness the Princess or Katsuragi-san a chance to express themselves. He failed to make the students who were not familiar with them understand their point of view and the plans they had in mind for the future exams."

"Everyone, if we were a loose group before this election, then after this rough one, we will be split into two camps! We will actively refuse to understand each other! At that time, unless one side voluntarily withdraws, our division will continue, and this will give other classes an opportunity to catch up!"

"Dongfang, you!" Hashimoto instantly felt a strong sense of crisis.

"Hashimoto has good intentions and is thinking about everyone. I know that, and everyone knows that too." Dongfang Yi only gave a slight chastise and didn't have any intention of causing trouble. "But this election is clearly inappropriate. It's too hasty and too urgent. So, I won't run."

"Then Dongfang, how should this be calculated?"

The cooperative students began to ask for advice.

"It's simple, it doesn't count. Since this election was too hasty, why don't we have a less hasty election?" Dongfang Yi said with a smile.

"No hasty...election?"

"Yes, I, a humble person, am willing to serve as the chairperson of the Class A Election Committee and hold our Class A leadership election debate in the classroom this Saturday. During this time, I will collect questions you would like to ask our two leadership candidates."

Dongfang Yi easily took his ticket away. "We'll summarize it into six questions, and have both sides explain their thoughts on the future of the class in person. After each question is asked, we'll hold a vote. The one with the most votes will win. In the end, the one with the most wins will be the winner."

"This will allow our two dear leaders to express their ideas and plans to the greatest extent possible, allowing everyone to make the most reasonable choice."

"What do you think?"

The audience suddenly became quiet and started to chatter.

Dongfang Yi's proposal is obviously very attractive.

He put on a layer of shell in the election, turning direct approval of his personal charisma into approval of his plan, minimizing the possibility of conflicts.

"I agree." Morishita Lan was the first to raise his hand in agreement, and others also raised their hands one after another.

Dongfang Yi nodded and turned behind him: "I wonder what Her Royal Highness the Princess thinks?"

"It's an interesting proposal." Loli, who was guilty of arrogance, gave the highest approval.

"What about Katsuragi-san?"

"I'm OK."

"Very good. Since everyone approves of me, I naturally cannot let everyone down." Dongfang Yi raised his eyebrows. "However, I still need help. Since there are six questions, I will find six students to assist me. Let me think, who should I find?"

"Totsuka-san, Hashimoto-san, Morishita-san, Sanada-san, Kamuro-san..."

After he carefully recalled the original text, he already knew who the other guy who abstained from voting was.

"Well, let's add Yamamura Miki-san. The upcoming mission is a bit busy, so I'm sorry to bother you guys."
