Horikita Suzune looked at Ishizaki and Komiya who were sitting opposite her. The bandages wrapped around their faces and arms reflected the severity of their injuries, which was the most crucial evidence for making the accusation.
But after being pointed out by Mitsuru Hashima, the girl confirmed the most crucial information through another camera, which was enough to completely expose their lies.
"What I want to ask is, were all the injuries on your body really caused by Sudou-san?"
"Of course. Why are you asking? This guy beat us up like this. Is there any doubt?"
After being glanced at with suspicion by Horikita Suzune, Ishizaki Daichi felt a little angry and nervous, so he expressed his dissatisfaction by pounding the table.
Komiya next to him also swallowed his saliva. After all, only a small part of their injuries were caused by Sudo, and most of them were caused by Ryuen himself.
After the filming of the "beating video" that day, Sudo did not actually cause any serious injuries to them, not to the extent that their arms and faces needed bandages.
Later, on the way to the student union together, Ryuen suddenly felt that such a minor injury might not be enough to force Sudo to drop out of school, so he made a new decision on the spot.
"Since you've already been beaten, why not make it even more severe? Otherwise, if you fail to get Sudo expelled, wouldn't all your beatings be in vain?"
"Once I strike, I must kill with one strike. Believe me, I will lead the class forward!"
Ishizaki Daichi and Komiya Yego were somewhat reluctant at the time, but after Ryuen's persuasion, they gritted their teeth and agreed to carry out this advanced version of the frame-up plan.
Now they have reached the most critical sentencing step of this plan, so they can only hold on to the other party tightly and not let go.
"Okay, then I understand what you mean."
After hearing this answer, Horikita Suzune looked at Tachibana Akane beside her and asked, "Tachibana-senpai, if the accusations made contain lies, what will be the final outcome?"
"If the accusation contains lies and is proven true, not only will the accusation be deemed invalid, but the accuser will also be subject to corresponding punishment."
Ju Qian's attitude was very serious, and she read out the specific implementation rules in a very serious manner.
Horikita Manabu, who was sitting in his seat, adjusted his glasses and continued, "If the accusations are proven to be lies, I will personally make the ruling to uphold the dignity of the school rules."
"Ok, I see."
Horikita Suzune nodded, then handed the video on her phone to Tachibana Akane, who quickly started projecting it.
Afterwards, Sudo, Chabashiri Sae, Hirata Yosuke and others all stared at the projection screen intently. After all, if this evidence still couldn't overturn the situation, then there would be really no way out.
The video began to play. It was a scene captured by a camera at the door of a convenience store near the special teaching building. The picture captured Daichi Ishizaki and Yego Komiya walking forward, and a long-haired boy following behind them.
Ryuen Sho.
They walked quickly past the convenience store entrance, so the video was very short, only a few seconds.
"This is?"
Ju Qian was a little hesitant. She stared at the video screen closely, as if she had discovered something.
"This is the footage I captured from the convenience store's surveillance video. Does anyone notice anything different?"
Horikita Suzune looked at Tachibana Akane, who was operating the computer, and continued, "Tachibana-senpai, please pause the footage of Ishizaki and Komiya passing by the convenience store."
"All right."
After the video paused, the black-haired girl looked at the two D-class boys whose faces had begun to turn pale and asked, "There's a time display below, so this video was shot within five minutes of the fight."
"In the footage, although your faces are injured, your arms are fine and can move normally, and your legs and feet don't seem to be in any way inconvenient," Horikita Suzune said in a cold tone, emphasizing each word. "If you were seriously injured, how could you move so quickly?"
"My arm was fine when I passed the convenience store, but now it's bandaged. Why is that?"
"Could it be possible that there's a delay in the damage caused by Sudou?"
"..."
Ishizaki Daichi and Komiya Ye Goji looked at each other and didn't know how to answer this question for a moment. Ryuuen had not considered this step, so they were a little at a loss.
Sakura Airi, who was standing aside, looked at the black-haired girl in front of her with an oppressive aura, and couldn't help feeling a little envious. If it were her, she would never be able to do such a thing.
After hearing Horikita Suzune's question, a smile appeared on Chabashi Sae's lips. She glanced at Sakagami Kazuma opposite her, and the other's expression had become very ugly.
Ibuki Mio, the class leader of Class D, was also somewhat shocked. After submitting the video, she thought the matter would be over immediately, but she did not expect that Class C actually had a backup plan, a backup plan that went straight to the core of the lie.
Damn Longyuan, why didn’t you consider this!
"Well, that concludes my questioning session. Thank you."
After making her last move, Horikita Suzune calmly returned to her seat.
"What? Everyone in Class D, aren't you going to continue to protest?"
Horikita Manabu stood up from his seat. He looked at the D class members who had fallen silent, then looked at Horikita Suzune who was sitting in her seat and asked, "How did you get this video?"
Faced with her brother's sudden question, Horikita Suzune suddenly became a little nervous, but still pretended to be calm and answered, "I discovered it after negotiating with the convenience store clerk during the investigation. The time was after the fight. If there is any dispute, you can find him and confront him.
This video was created after Horikita Suzune came up with a new operational idea after being inspired by Hashima Hikaru.
Because Sudo has always emphasized that he definitely did not use such heavy hands and it was impossible for him to cause such serious injuries.
There are no cameras in the special teaching building, so any explanation becomes an unconvincing mystery without evidence.
But the fact that there are no cameras in the special teaching building does not mean that there are no cameras in other places. Since Sudo did not use much force, the wounds on Ishizaki Daichi and Komiya Yego must have been caused elsewhere.
This reminded Horikita Suzune of a possibility, so she began to check and search the road between the special teaching building and the student union.
There happened to be a convenience store not far from the special teaching building, with a camera installed at the door. So the black-haired girl negotiated with the clerk and wanted to retrieve the surveillance video from the camera.
Although the clerk rejected her because it was against the rules, after the last incident when Hashima Hikaru came to sell the hidden rules, Horikita Suzune understood that the private points of this school were above all other rules, and it all depended on how she negotiated.
After some communication, Horikita Suzune proposed a deal to the clerk. The other party retrieved the surveillance video of that day for 15,000 yuan. The girl then discovered the content of the footage and recorded it with her mobile phone on the spot.
This directly became the deciding factor in the comeback and proved that they were lying. Before submitting this evidence, Horikita Suzune specifically asked whether all the injuries on their bodies were caused by Sudo.
Combined with the video footage, the logical chain is complete and they have no way of denying it.
"I see, then I understand."
Horikita Manabu nodded, and after taking his eyes off his sister, he looked seriously at the students in Class D and spoke.
"This video evidence proves that not all of your injuries were caused by Sudo, which means you lied in the accusations you made."
"What I just said still stands. If you can't refute it further, I will make today's ruling."
"Wait a minute," Sakagami Kazuma, the class teacher, shouted anxiously, "Even if we can prove that not all of their injuries were caused by Sudo, he did hit them, didn't he?"
"Regarding this point, the school has established a mechanism to review conflicts between students in this ruling in order to ensure fairness."
Horikita Manabu swept his gaze over everyone and said loudly, "To ensure fairness, every review initiated must be genuine."
"The accusation you made is that Sudo's violent behavior caused serious injuries to two classmates. This is a vicious accusation that can cause him to be expelled. If it is true, he must leave this school now."
"But now that your accusations have been proven to be false, everything must be overturned and started over again."
Horikita Manabu pushed up his glasses and continued, "Do you have any questions, Mr. Sakagami?"
"..."
After being righteously retorted by Horikita Manabu, Sakagami Kazuma's face turned red and white. He was actually very clear about the school rules. The high-sounding clauses actually had room for maneuver. What was more important was that you had to produce evidence openly. Even if you were lying, as long as the other party did not expose it, you could still make a judgment, and vice versa.
"Well then, regarding today's deliberations, I will announce the results."
The man's gaze swept across everyone's faces, and he spoke in a voice everyone could hear clearly: "Regarding the case in which Sudo from Class 1-C was accused of violence against Ishizaki and Komiya from Class 1-D, since the accusation itself was a lie, I hereby declare the accusation null and void, and Sudo will not be punished in any way."
"Great!"
The red-haired boy was immediately delighted, and Hirata Yosuke who was sitting next to him also breathed a sigh of relief.
Horikita Suzune continued to look at Horikita Manabu, wanting to hear what punishment would be given to Class D.
"As for Ishizaki Daichi and Komiya Yego, the people who made this accusation, since you lied in your accusation, which violated school regulations, I will suspend you for one week, starting today!"
"If you have any questions about the penalty, you are always welcome to come to the Student Union to ask questions. I will be waiting to give you a chance to answer them."
"Well, today's deliberations conclude here. The meeting is adjourned."
Chapter 97 Midterm Exam is Coming
"So there are such twists and turns? This is incredible..."
In Sakura Airi's dormitory, Hashima Hikaru and the red-haired girl were sitting face to face at the table. He stroked the rim of the cup containing the drink, his tone slightly surprised.
"Yes, I think it was really thrilling too. If Horikita-san hadn't been able to produce any evidence in the end, Sudou-san would have definitely been expelled."
While explaining the review process to the boy, Sakura Airi was still deeply impressed by the scene that had just happened. Such a tortuous review process made the girl feel anxious, fearing that she would fail in the end.
"Well, as long as we can achieve victory in the end, it's fine. This was a perfect counterattack. Thank you for your hard work, Sakura-san."
The young man soothed the girl across from him with a gentle voice and asked softly, "Facing everyone's gaze, Sakura-san must be a little uncomfortable, right?"
"Well...but I only made a little effort. Most of the credit goes to Horikita-san." There was a slight blush on Sakura Airi's little face.
After this targeted review was over, the students in Class C were of course very happy. Kushida even went straight to the red-haired girl, hoping that she could attend the celebration party as the main contributor.
Faced with such an invitation, Sakura of course chose to refuse. Although she had taken the first step, she still couldn't get close to her classmates. This has never been an easy thing for a girl.
Anyway, I have Hashima-san, and that's enough for me.
Sakura Airi used this answer to convince herself, so after receiving the other party's contact text message, she immediately returned to the dormitory and waited for the boy to come over.
During this period, Hikari Ueshima was still very proactive. After all, she had just raised Sakura Airi's stock price to 100, so she needed to strike while the iron was hot and keep paying attention. Besides, she had no interest in class competition, so she could just use this as a time to relax.
After resolving this matter, Long Yuan will probably not be able to show up again in the short term. After all, this plan has failed, and two more students have been suspended, and their class evaluation scores will be lowered again.
Therefore, it will be more difficult for Long Yuanxiang to expand his influence in the future, and this is the best result.
We can put him aside for now. As time goes by, there is a more important thing that Hashima Hikaru needs to start preparing for.
That is - the midterm exam.
According to the hidden rules I bought on the first day of school, I learned that this school has a critical red line in both midterm and final exams. That is, after the exam, if a student's score in any subject is lower than the class benchmark score, he or she will be expelled directly.
This rule did not cause any waves in the class at the time. After all, the benchmark score was half of the average score for the subject. If the average score was 70 points, then as long as you scored 35 points or above, you would not violate the rules.
Judging from the basic performance of the students in Class A, half of the average score is already a very low level, and it is impossible for anyone to fail to get this score.
Moreover, Hashima Hikaru and Ichinose Honami now have complete control over the entire class. By asking those who have excellent grades in a single subject to deliberately lower their scores, the benchmark scores for that subject can be ensured to be lower. There are many places where they can manipulate.
But this rule is different for the following classes, such as Sakura Airi who has just been promoted to Class C.
Their original class was the worst, so it’s hard to say whether this red line will be triggered.
After taking a sip of his drink, Hashima Hikaru looked at the girl across from him and asked, "How are Sakura-san's grades usually?"
"Eh?"
After hearing this question, Sakura Ai blushed and explained sheepishly, "My grades... aren't very good."
"But the midterm exam is coming up soon. It's a very important exam, don't forget the hidden rules we announced earlier."
"If it's a baseline score, I should be... fine."
Sakura Airi also remembered the hidden rules that they had purchased together with points before, and realized that it would be enough as long as she got more than half of the average score.
But in fact she didn't have much confidence, after all, the girl was not good at studying.
"That's good, but you still can't slack off in your studies. You must keep working hard."
Hashima Hikaru touched his chin. According to the schedule for the first semester, the midterm exam will be at the end of May, followed by the final exam at the end of July, and summer vacation will be in August.
In this school, although no special examinations have been conducted yet, large-scale joint examinations such as midterm examinations are definitely very important, and it is possible that the final results will be reflected in the class evaluation scores.
The class evaluation scores of Class A and Class B are currently only 30 points apart, and the overall quality and academic performance of Class B are definitely among the best. Therefore, in order not to be overtaken by them, this exam must be won with the best performance.
"Hashima-san, are you worried about something?"
During the frequent contact during this period, Airi Sakura was able to capture some of the boy's inner emotions, so she guessed whether Hashima Hikaru was worried about something.
"Just a little bit. After all, this is an important exam, and I don't want anyone to fail."
Hashima Hikaru recalled the information that could boost Sakura Airi's stock price.
[Stock price increase suggestion: Become her best friend, help her solve her problems, and take photos with her.]
"If I help her improve her grades, does that count as solving her life problems?"
The boy was thinking about the answer to this question. Given Sakura Airi's shy personality and unwillingness to actively socialize with others, it would be impossible for her to participate in any study sessions organized within the class.
This means that her achievements either depend on her own efforts or she gives up, and no one can help her at all.
"But it would be such a shame if I were to be expelled from school by accident with 5000 shares of this treasure trove of stock."
And she's pretty easy to get along with, isn't she?
After making the choice, Hashima Hikaru's smile grew even wider, and he whispered to Sakura Airi, "I have a suggestion. Would Sakura-san be willing to help?"
"What is it?" The girl raised her eyes slightly and stared at Hashima Hikaru's face.
