"What Xiao Fanbo said is that the future of Class B should be fought for by everyone together. How can we let Aragaki and Kanzaki bear the cost alone!"
"That's too much. Aragaki, forget about that, but Kanzaki, why are you trying to be cool like that too?"
"Let's all get promoted to Class A. Even if you fail, you can just go on to further studies on your own. Tuition and living expenses are free for three years. You'll be making a fortune!"
"Aragaki is the most handsome, Xiao Fanbo is my favorite, and being able to enter Class B is the best!!"
“Ahhhh~ It’s on fire!!!”
At this moment, the roar and enthusiasm filled the entire Class B. Even if Hoshinomiya Chie saw that something was wrong and closed the door, I'm afraid that several classrooms next door could hear it. Maybe someone was already wondering why everyone in Class B suddenly went crazy.
Aragaki Shun looked at these suddenly enthusiastic classmates with some troubled look, and felt the youthful exuberance of young people for the first time in a long time.
All I can say is that in his new life, he indeed carries too much utilitarianism that is not suitable for his age.
For these high school students who have not yet entered the big dye vat of society, future salary, work, class and other overly realistic things may also be important, but they are definitely far less important to them at this stage: youth, passion, face and friendship.
In fact, after the successive promises made by Aragaki Shun and Kanzaki Ryuji, the boys and girls in the class are most concerned about not their identities, but why they are so handsome!!!
Isn't it awesome to carry the future of Class B on one person's shoulders?
It feels so good!
When will I ever get the chance to play this trick on everyone?!
As for actually considering the work the two had promised... at least for now, few people in Class B took it seriously.
Not to mention that after Shun Aragaki gave out the information about the behavioral norms test, no one had a real sense of the difficulty of the class competition, and always felt that it would be easy to be promoted to Class A.
For example, for a high school student of this age, wouldn’t it be too embarrassing to accept a friend’s invitation and work in his family’s business?
In comparison, they felt more emotional when the entire Class B worked together, overcame many difficulties, defeated other enemies who were eyeing them, and finally realized their dreams together.
Aragaki Shun put himself in their shoes and roughly understood the train of thought of these guys, and was a little speechless with laughter.
When I looked at the people in Class B again, I couldn't help but feel a sense of identification.
No matter how naive and ridiculous this intention was, he still appreciated this simple kindness.
Having had this experience, he understood that it would be difficult to build such a pure relationship when he entered society in the future.
17. Aragaki-san, are you really this kind of person?
"Okay, everyone, stop for a moment. The excitement has almost ended here."
Aragaki Shun clapped his hands, signaling to Class B that it was time to stop cheering after a while.
Don't keep making noise, otherwise the students in the neighboring classrooms will complain.
"I understand everyone's thoughts clearly," Aragaki Shun's face also showed a softer arc, "Like you, I don't think Class B will fail in the future competition!"
Although he does not have the same youthful vigor as his peers, Shun Aragaki also has a sense of pride in his heart. It is impossible for him to think that he is still inferior to a group of normal people after cheating.
If such an outrageous situation really occurred, he could only believe that there was some mysterious force at work.
When the time comes, he will let the culprit know why he always has to keep at least 10 source powers in reserve just in case.
"But once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back. I will not take back this promise!"
Seeing that the students below wanted to say something, Aragaki Shun stretched out his hand to signal them to wait a moment.
"Just think of it as a backup plan that you won't need. If you want to prove your ability and determination, then work hard to defeat the other classes alongside me and win the victory we deserve!"
"After all, a guaranteed place is just a guaranteed place. It's not as good as the school's promise of letting you choose any prestigious university or company you want."
Even from Aragaki Shun's perspective, the school's promise is indeed quite powerful for these ordinary students.
It’s not a question of how much it’s worth, but rather that the range of choices is quite wide.
Aragaki Shun can easily offer forty decent jobs with good salaries, but to help forty people realize their dreams and arrange for them to enter the famous companies or prestigious schools they want... the Aragaki family can do it, but it is not cost-effective.
Because the connections involved need to be spread across all companies and schools in Sakurajima, and one must have the ability to place people in government agencies, and even have to consider studying abroad.
Any individual chaebol, enterprise, or family that wants to achieve this has to mobilize all kinds of connections and money to pave the way, and even then they have to pray that no student targets their rivals.
Four or five a year is fine, but forty a year is too much trouble!
It is simpler and more direct to arrange for him to work in his own company, and it can be done with just one sentence.
Since Koukou Yusei High School is directly under the government, and the exchange of interests is led by the top leaders of Sakurajima, all parties are willing to give it face and attention. Otherwise, it would be very troublesome to fulfill such a promise every year.
Therefore, Aragaki Shun called the promise he and Kanzaki made a guarantee, which would allow them to get a good job after graduation, but this job might not be in line with their dreams.
"Okay, it's almost time for the class meeting."
"For the next month, I ask everyone to attend classes carefully, complete homework on time, and neither be late nor leave early, so that we can successfully complete this behavioral norms test."
"Of course, if it's students from other first-grade classes, or even second- and third-grade students who are deliberately provoking you, don't be too hard on yourself. Fight back according to the situation. If you're being bullied, go back to your class and call for help. We're a whole class. We shouldn't deliberately cause trouble, but we shouldn't be afraid of it either!"
After making this final summary, Aragaki Shun nodded to Hoshinomiya Chie who had been silently observing by the door, and returned the podium to the teacher.
It is worth mentioning that after Aragaki Shun sat back in his seat, a message suddenly refreshed on his personal panel that only he could see -
[Completed Achievement: Established leadership position in Class 1B, Source Power +2.]
[Source Power: 12 → 14 (Current efficiency: 3 per month)]
A strange light flashed in Aragaki Shun's eyes. He expected that the integration of Class B would allow them to obtain source power, but he was still a little surprised that two more were added at once.
But this is a good thing after all. In this way, the two abilities he has always wanted to condense can be perfected as soon as possible.
"It seems like you gained a lot yesterday."
Hoshinomiya Chie walked slowly towards the podium with an unconcealed smile of joy on her face.
"It's great to be young. I now believe you are the best!"
The head teacher of Grade 1 Class B exclaimed, "Keep moving toward your goals. Your future salary and bonuses will depend on your performance."
Aragaki Shun, who was sitting below, raised his eyebrows. What this sentence meant was that strength is paramount among teachers. After they were promoted to Class A, Hoshinomiya Chie would also be able to get higher salary and bonuses?
If that's the case, when the detailed rules regarding class funds are worked out, can Chie Hoshinomiya also contribute some points?
She never thought that the big shot in Class B, whom she considered to be a big shot, was actually thinking about how to get her gold coins. Hoshinomiya Chie looked at the time and saw that it was time for class to start, so she reminded everyone to take out their books.
The time after that is just general teaching.
As expected, Aragaki Shun and the others could feel that the teaching style of all the teachers in the class seemed too relaxed and friendly.
I met teachers of four different subjects in six classes today.
Without exception, all teachers only introduced themselves at the beginning of the class and then immersed themselves completely in the teaching content. As for class discipline, they simply didn't care at all.
If everyone didn't know that this was a behavioral norms test, many people in Class B would probably doubt their lives. How could such a teaching attitude cultivate outstanding talents?
After a whole day of classes was over, everyone finally welcomed the end of school in this relaxed yet tense atmosphere.
"Huh, I always feel like the teachers are deliberately indulging us. I couldn't help but want to do some little actions many times, but luckily I held back."
The weak-willed girl at the front table, Shiraha Chihiro, patted her chest and took a deep breath, as if after a whole day of classes, she had accumulated too much pressure that was difficult to release, and only now did she finally dare to relax.
"Don't be too nervous. Just don't do things like sleeping in class, making loud noises, playing with your phone, eating snacks, etc. that are obviously bad. The school isn't crazy enough to deduct points for any small behavior."
They are just high school students, neither special forces nor robots. If the school really forces the entire class not to move at all during class, then let alone a thousand class points, even if the points are increased a thousand times, it will not be enough for the school to deduct.
"That being said, wouldn't it be terrible if points were deducted because of me?"
"It's okay. The deduction standards for all four classes are the same. If they were different, I would have to consider kicking the door down directly."
Aragaki Shun saw that Shiranami Chihiro looked a little confused, but instead of explaining, he teased her, "If you're still nervous, how about I pat your head for you? That's how I comforted my sister at home."
"Eh? Eh? Aragaki-san, are you really like this?"
18. The commotion at the club briefing
"Aragaki-kun, don't tease Chihiro just because she's cute. Girls will hate you if you do that."
Shiranami Chihiro's surprised voice was heard next door, and her deskmate Ichinose Honoka leaned over with a strange expression and rolled her eyes at Aragaki Shun with some anger.
"Well, I'm sorry. I don't think I'm very good at getting along with girls, but I don't think any girl has ever disliked me for this."
Seeing the boy say these words with his handsome face, Ichinose Honami fell silent.
"...In any case, it's better not to say such frivolous things to girls casually."
"Then I'll try my best. I also know that I can be a little too casual sometimes. If you think my behavior is wrong, just tell me directly... Although I can't promise that I will change."
After hearing the first part, the two people thought that Aragaki Shun was very reasonable, but after hearing the second part, they didn't know how to evaluate him.
But this was probably Aragaki's style. If he didn't have such a headstrong side beneath his gentle exterior, how could he have challenged the senior club on the first day of school? And he certainly wouldn't have promised everyone in Class B a future together.
Just as they were daydreaming, music came from the school radio.
"Again, a club information session will be held at the First Gymnasium starting at 5:00 PM today. Students interested in the club, please gather at the First Gymnasium. I repeat, today..."
A cute female voice came out along with the radio. In fact, the notice about the club briefing had been broadcast several times during the lunch break, and now it was about two hours before five o'clock in the afternoon.
"Aragaki, do you want to go check out the club together?"
Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa walked over together. They had gone to the gym with Aragaki Shun several times yesterday. In their eyes, Aragaki Shun should not miss this opportunity to learn about many club information.
"Of course. I'd like to see what other interesting clubs there are in this school. I'll take note and find time to explore them one by one."
Sakurajima attaches great importance to club activities. Ordinary high schools can finish school at around 15 p.m. every afternoon. This arrangement is to allow students to have more time to participate in club activities.
Therefore, students who are confident in their own talents will basically join the clubs they are interested in. If they want to test the quality of their seniors, they only need to try out each club once.
"Then let's all the students in the class who are interested in the club go together," Ichinose Honoki suggested enthusiastically, looking directly at Aragaki Shun. "Most of the other classes should also be interested in the club, so if everyone in the class gets together, we can all look after each other."
This isn't a gang fight, is it necessary to mobilize so many people?
Although he wanted to say that, seeing that everyone else in the class seemed to agree, Aragaki Shun didn't pour cold water on him. He just walked in front and signaled everyone to follow.
"You just left like that... I, I didn't say you can't touch it..."
Seeing the boy leave so casually, the topic that was interrupted by Ichinose Honami suddenly came to an end. Shiranami Chihiro muttered, and her somewhat depressed voice dissipated with the wind.
"What are you talking about, Chihiro? Let's go to the First Gymnasium together now."
Ichinose Honami called her friends Kobashi Yume, Amigura Asako, Ando Sayo and others to come together. Seeing that Shiranami Chihiro was still sitting in her seat for some reason, she quickly reached out a hand to pull her up.
"Wait a moment, Xiao Fanbo, I'll be right there."
Woo~ I feel that Xiaofanbo is more gentle.
But Aragaki-kun is so handsome and gives me a sense of security. What should I do?
.........
Although it says that those who are interested can go to the club information session.
But given the characteristics of Class B, when most people choose to gather in one place, the rest of the people will definitely follow suit, even if it's just to fit in.
Therefore, this full team of forty people, surrounded by core members such as Aragaki Shun, Ichinose Honami, and Kanzaki Ryuji, appeared quite large and conspicuous as they walked along.
It even led to an interesting incident.
That is, when they passed the first-year Class A area, this group of people didn't know how to understand it. Maybe they thought that there was some deep meaning behind Class B going to the First Gymnasium in groups, or maybe it was just for competition. In any case, the result was that all the people in Class A also followed Class B's example and gathered together, rushing to the club briefing in a threatening manner.
However, because there is a girl with mobility problems in the core team of Class A who needs to be taken care of, they cannot overtake Class B and get ahead. The group can only cater to Sakayanagi's low pressure and silently follow behind the Class B team.
Finally, influenced by the herd mentality, some people in Class C and Class D thought that since Class A and Class B went in groups, it would be bad if they didn't go.
Although they didn't know why they had to do this and not all of them came, most of them still rushed to the first gym in twos and threes, and followed the example of Class A and Class B to find an area and gather together.
The seniors who were preparing their own recruitment methods in the first gymnasium looked at this scene in surprise. If it were not for the announcement that not everyone was required to attend the club briefing, they would have thought that this was an opening ceremony.
But after the accident came solemnity.
The second and third graders who have spent one or two years in high-level training are already familiar with the school rules. They also know that the first month of school is still the behavioral norms test stage. In theory, all freshmen have not been informed of the actual test situation, right?
Let’s not talk about the messy class C and class D, what about class A and class B which are lined up neatly next to them?
It’s only the second day of school and these two classes have been merged?
Isn’t it so outrageous?
In the center of the gymnasium's stage, a man with glasses who was directing the members of various clubs and arranging their positions saw this scene. An unpredictable color flashed in his eyes, and he instinctively looked in a certain direction of Class D.
It was as if he saw the person he wanted to see, but also as if he saw a reality he didn't want to see. In short, the expression on the man's face was extremely inexplicable, and perhaps it was difficult for anyone except himself to understand it.
Gently pushing up his glasses, the slender, black-haired man immersed himself in his work again, as if he hadn't seen anything before, without even thinking of responding to the long-lost, hot and timid gaze.
"Lingyin, why did you chase me here?"
