They then head out towards the library, where Hiyori seems to have reserved seats for them. After Nanase shows up, she says that Class 1-D is going to suffer because of Hosen, and so, she proposed that they should negotiate in secret with Hosen during the upcoming Sunday. Nanase suddenly asks Ayanokoji the type of person he is. He then spun the question around by asking what she thinks of him. She then replies that he seems like an ordinary person. Before leaving, Ayanokoji tells her about the protection point. On Thursday, Ayanokoji and Suzune arranged a meeting with Nanase for a talk. They made their way to the library where Hiyori greets them as she was there to talk to some first years. After taking their seats, they started talking about the challenge between them. After sometime, Nanase showed up in the library and they started discussing forming a relationship based on cooperation between their classes. She replies that they will cooperate if they pay the required amount of private points. Horikita proposes that they should form pairs of 15 students, in regards to academic ability with no points for helping each other. Nanase replies that it won't be that easy as Hosen won't allow that. After some discussion, Nanase called Hosen on her phone. Horikita demanded a meeting with him but he ends the call immediately. Nanase leaves the library to meet with Hosen. Soon after, Ayanokoji and Suzune also left the library. Later on, after listening to her, he invited her to his room to study. in Japanese).

Secondly, The story is so good that it kept me so interested I couldn't even sleep. The depth and unpredictabilty of the stories is awesome and keeps you on your toes constantly. The characters personalities and how they evolve is perfectly portrayed in the story as well. The reader can feel spite towards a character yet still look forward to their actions.

They went to talk to a group of first-year Class D boys, named Kakaga, Mikami and Shiratori, who had academic abilities of B or higher. Suzune offered 50,000 points to partner up with Sudou, but Shiratori wanted 500,000 instead. They didn't have the amount of money for such an offer, and it'd be a big loss if they accepted. Suzune thought it was a bluff and asked if they've been approached by someone else, to which Shiratori says that Hashimoto has already approached them. The boys gave them a week to conjure the money and will cooperate with Sudou if that's possible. Kiyotaka, Suzune and Sudou left, talking about how the first-years weren't looking ahead. Suzune explains that they plan to scam the money of those who are desperate to find pairs. With enough of that, they'll be able to buy their way to higher classes. Suzune then decided to set three goals for this exam: don't drop out, aim for third place or higher, and don't involve money in their negotiations. To achieve that goal, Suzune still aims to scout out for Class D students. Just then, someone approached them by the stairs. The person calls herself Ichika Amasawa from Class A of the first years, with an academic ability of A. Ichika offered to partner up with Horikita, but the latter wants her to partner up with Sudou instead. She claims that she will agree to partner up with him as long as he's a strong person, and will pit his strength with someone else in the school. Her other criteria without to partner up with Sudo without needing to test one's physical strength is for them to find someone who can cook and satisfy her tastes. Suzune attempted to bluff by saying that Kiyotaka is good at cooking, with the latter played along. Ichika seems satisfied by that comment and asked to see his skills as soon as possible. However, that will be a problem since Kiyotaka isn't actually an amazing cook. After a bit of bantering, they decided to have Ichika taste Kiyotaka's cooking the next day after school, in his dormitory. Before that, Ichika wants to bring Kiyotaka along with a shopping trip to gather the required ingredients, as she will be requesting a secret item to be cooked. RoyalMTL’s 26 Kei, who was standing beside me, took my hand without hesitation and we started walking. The act of holding hands and walking side by side like this was not uncommon anymore. “Yesterday… Thanks for staying up with me until late. I'm very happy.” Kei squeezed my hand while blushing a little. “But it'd be a problem if we get caught.” Despite already being past the curfew, Kei remained in my room last night. Fortunately, there seemed to be no witnesses when she left, so we won’t be penalized. “Ahaha, indeed.” For some reason, Kei's profile looked reliable. Is it possible for her to change this much in half a day? “Did it hurt?” “Do you even have to ask?” “Is it that bad?” “No, but… how do I put this, I thought I was used to it.” Although a little embarrassed, Kei was delighted. “In a way, it was my first time so I probably hadn't sorted my thoughts yet. However, I feel reassured that you ignored the curfew and stayed with me the whole time.” That's true, who knows what would’ve happened if I hadn't been there. “I see.” Kei ascended another step up on the staircase of adulthood after yesterday's experience. Although she had support behind her, she succeeded in standing her ground. It was a big improvement from the time she thought she could never stand anymore. Learning to get up on your own when you fall was important for Kei, a special case that didn't happen overnight like other students. “G-Good morning, Kei-chan.” As soon as we arrived at the classroom, Satō, who arrived early, spotted Kei and got up to run to her. “Good morning, Maya ~” Kei, giving me a gaze, excused herself and immediately started closely chatting with Satō. Although initially somewhat awkward, they soon began their usual chit-chat, or maybe it was even friendlier than usual. The circle of happiness that started with the two of them began to spread to the other girls, even to students that aren’t typically involved, such as Shinohara and Mii-chan, who've been struggling for a while.
