When, Hachiman found out the iions of Vice President Nagumo. 　　"Iose, if it is Vice President Nagumo." He decided to warn this leader of Css B in good faith, "It's best not to get too close to him."

  "....I don't like to speak ill of others behind their backs, but Nagumo-senpai is very dangerous." With that said, Hachimarieved the photos of the sed-year css evaluation scores, he had taken wheered the school.

  Seeing that Hachiman seemed to be showing her a picture, Iose immediately came closer.

  Instantly the girl's fragrant breath floated over. And she probably doesn’t quite uand how to get along with others.

  Hachimahat if he decided to move even a little bit, Iose would probably do the same unsciously. 　So, he hahe phone over so that the other person could see the numbers on it. He's not a secret pervert.

  "This is a photo that I took of the small bckboard in the sed grade. And these scores are quite strange, so I suspect that the sed graders have lost the ability to pete in special exams.....” He wahis sunny girl to uand what kind of ghost css points this is? Very dangerous.

  'They have lost the ability to front each other in the css, which means...have they actually bee one?' Iose's expression began to ge.

  She was not stupid like her terpart and quickly uood what Hachiman was trying to say.　　It was about the danger of the senior who told her the shortcut to pass this writte.

  "This.... photo was taken when Hikigaya-kun just ehe school," After taking another look at these scores, and notig the date on which the photo has been captured, Iose looked at Hachiman with her eyes full of curiosity, "As expected, you discovered these secrets very early."

  'Um. What is this girl doing?'Hachiman didn't ask for any praise.

  Only. "I see..." But Iose nodded her head twice, as if she uood something. "....Although I don't like to specute on others with malicious i, and thought this senior seems to be a good person."

  "It's just..." She hesitated, and her expression looked like she was having an internal struggle about her beliefs, “If this be dohen... I 't let my css fall into crisis. "　　“Anyway, thank you." Iose bowed head gently, in gratitude. 　　"No, I think I should be the oo say thank you." Hachiman shook his head, he didn't think he deserved such a high evaluation, "You wao tell us about the old questions in the regur exam.....even though we are still petitors.”

  He had to Iose's evaluation in his mind, a Real holy mother indeed.

  "Ah... um. After all, the students in Css C are under a lot of pressure." Iose said with a smile on her fabsp; it's obvious that she would help with this simple problem.

  But she didn't know at the start that most of her cssmates who went to tutor the idiots of Css C, almost wao bang their heads against the wall especially Ryuji Kanzaki, her own advisor.

  So, when Iose saw the sullen look on her assistant's face for several days, she realised that the academic ability of the students in Css C is very eous.

  And acc to the progress of make-up lessons, it is definitely impossible to pass normally.

  So, after learning about the old test questions, Iose wao share this information. Because she didn't want Hikigaya-kun (css leader) to think that her cssmates didn't help, causing students to drop out.

  From this point of view, Iose is like a holy mother.

  ___________

  Afterwards, Iose who was nominated as a genuine holy mother by Hachima first because a friend was looking for her.　And then he looked at Kushida-, who was frowning for a while.

  "So, the writte in the seonth of enrollment will be based on old questions....This news is basically verified at the point.

  Then the hing to do is to get the test paper." Even though Hachiman wao ask what's wrong with her newfound attitude, he didn't have much time and gave her another order "... you ask that senpai out?"

  "I'll try." Kushida just nodded her head, absent-minded. She set because her pn of getting into Iose's heart was bankrupted by the Vice president.

  And more importantly Iose didn't even say goodbye when she left.

  'Do you value me so little in your heart? What about being a holy mother?!' Even though Kushida looked annoying inside.

  But as a little angel in the css, she doesn't want to see anyone fall behind because of poor marks.　　And now the authenticity of the matter has been firmed from Iose.

  'Then I definitely do it more boldly, there's o be so secretive like earlier'

  In this way, Kushida started w again. 'The payment's really too low. It feels like being abused!'

  __________

  Ten mier.　　"Senpai” Kushida sat down opposite from this senior with a sweet smile on her face, "There is something I want to discuss with you. Do you still have the exam from the year before the st? I want those tests paper?" If it was a boy, she would have tried harder but well....

  "Hooints are you willing to pay?" The third-year senior sister was pletely unambiguous. It would be better to say that she was really moved when Kushida came to explore the information.

  After all, she is a student in Css D, and has already vomited after eating the unpatable mountaiable set meal.

  So, she also oints. But this girl didn't know that Kushida- saw her earlier, in the cafeteria eating.....that.

  When she decided to spy ohis senior vomited near a trash , so Kushida immediately decided oarget.

  In this way, our little angel looked around guiltily, and showed a troubled expression on her face.

  Then, Kushida looked at the senior with some hesitation, "Then... senpai, how much do you want?"

  “Same as I said before, 40,000!" Senpai also lowered her voi response, but said resolutely, "I also have to bear the risk, han 40,000 points!"

  If Kushida save her cssmates, thehis favor to Iose.....　　Then this price is acceptable, but she felt that she could fight a little harder, aiate the price even lower. 　　Everyone knows the rules of this school, and the senior students in Css D of the third grade have a css evaluation score of 20 points, so they only get 2,000 private points every month.

  Not enough to eat at all. In other words... the senior is poor enough.　　Then, there's a high possibility that this senpai must be quite desperate. In this way, Kushida shed a little skin, and decided to harden her heart.

  Became a little bside. So. 　　"Senpai..." She looked at this brown-haired senior with some embarrassment, "....Isn't it a little too expensive?"

  "Not expe all!" But the third-year senior said seriously without giving any face, "I guarahat this test paper is accurate..... And if you pass the exam, you will not only be exempted from dropping out, but you will also get 100 points. Meaning, with a css of 40 people, it will add up to 400,000!

  But I only want 40,000, so it's not expe all!!" She even raised her four little fingers at her, in a very rude gesture making Kushida want to snap them into pieces.

  'This bitch is so annoying?!'

  "..." But, she showed a troubled expression instead, and then turned very pitiful, "Senpai, do you really have the heart to let me drop out of school?"

  “....” Um. Although she is a girl, the third-year senior also felt dull for a moment. After all, Kushida- still looks very cute.

  And she also showed an expression of trust and belief in her.　　So, at that moment, even this senpai, had a feeling of shame. 'Was it really okay to bckmail a cute school girl like this?'

  "35,000, no less!" Grittieeth, she lowered her request, but her tone was much softer, not as decisive as before.

  "Senpai." Kushida still had a grima her face, and tio be pitiful. 　　"Thirty thousand," She decreased the price even more shamelessly, Kushida wouldn't have do, if this senior hadn't pointed her fingers at her face.

  It makes her look like a sadist who loves bullying eople.

  "Thirty-five thousand! I really 't go any lower!" But the senior sister had a bitter look on her fad her words became quite firm, not as soft-hearted as before.

  With 35,000 points, if she saves money, she eat at least 60 meals without eating that.....garbage. 　　Therefore, it is no longer possible for her to lower the price.　　Kushida, oher hand, also noticed the firmness in her words, and she also khat there was no point in trying to be cute.

  "Okay, thirty-five thousand." She sighed softly and took out her phoill looking very pitiful, making others thought that the senior was the one demanding too much.

  But Kushida- was very cute aed to her request, making this senior's reputation in other people's mind even worse than earlier.

  “.....” Senior. 'What's wrong with these people?' She thought in fusion, feeling some inteeful stares.

  __________　　In this way. Kushida and her senior are trading.

  And the other side. Hachiman and Horikita were not far away.　　Keeping an eye on this drama, "Did you see that, Kushida is very good at doing this kind of thing!" Hachiman looked very impressed, and praised Suzune's natural enemy without a sed thought. 　　Actually, he doesn’t think Kushida’s behavior is very good.　　Because. She didn't uand the importance of haggling, and put the choi the hands of the other party from the beginning ahe senior decide her own price, instead of taking over the iation pletely.

  In this way, even if she is a novice, this seniirl knows very well that Kushida actually was not aware about the true value of this test paper, let alone how to decide the amount.

  That's why she used the rhetoric "The whole css will get 400,000 points, but I only need 40,000.”

  And the right bargain is a rare odity.

  But this senior is just one of the uppercssmen, so you find other poor bastards.

  Then you tio lower the price, 30,000, no, even 20,000 be achieved.

  Only. Hachiman decided to use this opportunity to reward the other person, "How about you accept Kushida a little bit?"

  "..." Suzune "You mean... I have to be friends with her?" Even her face looked disgusted at this thought, being friends or something.......

  "There are things you learn from her." Hachiman sighed, and tried using other means to ge Horikita's mind, "For example, Kushida is always doing things that are beneficial to the css."

  'In other words, you're not being very useful, and just fishing like Ike and the others'

  This kind of meaning appeared inside Suzune's mind after hearing Hachiman's statement.

  Only, if she keeps rejeg her, Kushida's bomb may explode but Hachiman wao defuse it before something crazy happened.

  ____________

  Humans are absolutely ugly creatures.　　 they help others, without any reward, but still able to maintain their heart clearly white?

  Of course, Hachiman does not deny the existence of sugels.　　But he knew very well that Kushida was definitely not a real angel.　　However, if she keeps lig Horikita and doesn't get any feedback, her pressure cooker will explode, causing bloodshed iire .

  Rather say. Because it is a bomb, it will definitely not be able to hold on for much longer.

  But in this case, maybe deliberately igniting Kushida during a special exam, might have a miraculous effect.

  'Get some nice bckmail material' Hachiman thought to himself.　After all, the overall quality of the css is not enough to pete with other csses. He only use bck methods.

  At this time, Kushida had already received the paper sent by her senior. 　　It's just that it's not a direct paper, but a photo of the test paper. Normally, she would have to go back to the dormitory to find old papers.

  But nope. Instead, she sent the picture directly to Kushida. In other words, this senior really wao sell the test papers and run away with Kushida's pocket money.

  "This senior sehe test papers from the st midterm exam, and also included the special quiz that we had already taken," Kushida reported this good news, immediately after the transa was over.

  "Then, Horikita-san, you please e over and take a look at these papers?"

  "...." Suzune. She didn't want to look at what kind of evil things Kushida-san is holding inside?!

  'Unholy! I don't want it! "It's exactly the same as what we took in the quiz." Horikita didn't have any other option but to take a small peek. She was also slightly curious, even though another chibi-Suzune was screaming ihe court.

  "....It seems that the uppercssmen really passed the exam by cheating," Kushida even shed a small tear, at this huge achievement, "With this test paper, our cssmates will definitely survive this battle.” 　Her ag skills are really amazing, but Hachiman realised that Kushida just wanted his straight daughter to uand that it was really hard work?

  But he also looked at the paper. The questions of the quiz sent by the senior were exactly the same as the questions of the quiz, he took st month.

  Not to mention the numbers, but even the punctuation wasn't ged. 　　Then, there is a high probability that the questions in this exam won't be differeher?

  In this way, 35,000 points are sidered money well spent.　　There are five subjects in this midterm exam, physics, chemistry, biology, English and mathematics.　　As for the test paper they bought, some pces were filled in, but there were still many mistakes or even bnk spaces.

  But, sihe other party is still in school, it proves that she'd pass the exam.

  "....So, is it really the case?" Suzune also uood. "The school actually allows such things as cheating by default....." It looks like, that chibi-Suzune was finally able to take over.

  She wanted justice! It's unfair!! What a horrendous crime?! Very unfortable for a top student like her.

  Because what she has been w so hard for has been leaked by the school itself!.....Cheat sheets!

  Suzune wao growl and stomp her foot on Kushida-san's cell phone, crush it with all her might.

  Only. She noticed Hachiman looking at her. Really? She looked upwards slightly.

  He was iaring at her. And this is probably to make her take a.

  "..." Suzune. So, she pursued her lips and looked at Kushida-san.

  ".....Thank you Kushida-san, for this exam," Suzuhen said some unbelievable words that even she herself didn't believe, would ever leave from her own mouth.

  "Eh..." Look, even Kushida was also suddenly stunned by Horikita's seriousness. "Horikita-san, what do you mean..."

  "I've seehing you did before." Suzune clicked her tongue inwardly, and said with a bnk look on her face, "...It's just that I've been alone since I was a child, so I don't like the presence of others around me."

  "But." She seemed to be making up her mind, it looks very difficult. Like an internal debate being held inside her brain.

  Then she finally said the thing, "... you bes friends with me?" Suzuended her slender hand to Kushida-san. She said this in a meek voice, with her cheeks slightly red, very ashamed.

  "Hey!" Kushida screamed again ireme shock, her eyeballs looked like they'll e out from her sockets at any point.

  Hachiman was ready with his hands open, if something happened just in case. 　　Because. She went to Horikita Suzune's door every day to wait for her, wanting to go to school together, and even took the initiative to say hello to her every day in the m.

  Result, always ignored by the other party. Very heartless, Kushida has gained many looks of sympathy from her cssmates.

  As a result, does the sun e out from the west now? Horikita-san actually wao be friends with her.

  Kushida felt like g, for a moment, became quite emotional, even her eyes looked a little watery.

  It was a beautiful sery, which deserved to be captured by Airi's digital camera.

  ?

  "I don't want to admit that I am trash.....so, I want to climb up. My goal is to be promoted to Css A. Then....Kushida-san, you help me with this?" Suzune decided to open her heart for the first time, gaining looks of utter disbelief from both of her cssmates. 'Is it really that surprising? What do these guys think I am?!'

  "Yeah." After Kushida wiped her eyes, with her right hand, she touched her chest and nodded enthusiastically. "I also want to be promoted to Css A!!"

  "It's just." Then her face seemed to feel rexed. "Then our curreionship is..."

  "It's like being partners-in crime" Hachiman said, with a small smile on his face. He also got a little emotional, and even wao cp his hands.

  "..." Kushida said, "Yes, that's right, Hikigaya-kun. artners-in crime!” she seemed to nod happily. 　　But it's no use, Kushida-san, when Hachiman talked to you just now, she seemed to be ign him. Her gaze fixed on the bck-haired girl, sitting across from both of them.

  Hachiman feels like he's getting in the way here. In other words, in Kushida’s mind, his neighbour’s ranking must be solved.

  So, he decided to ge the topic, “Then the hing to do is to find someoo fill in the correswers. Then send it to the students in our css.” This step is also very important, he o find a top academic student to solve this paper.

  "Treat it as study materials or something....."　　“Yeah, this kind of thing..." Hachiman then looked at both of these girls, with a questionable look, “ I leave it to you two?"

  "Or, do you want to leave it to Yukimura. His name is also among the top students announced by the teacher," He then deliberately mentioned another person's o igheir petitive spirit.

  Yukimura Teruhiko. Wear gsses, not very tall, a little thin, and have a nerdy air around him.

  But, he is a top css student. Only behind Horikita.　　"Ah... um... I think Horikita-san and I will be fine," Kushida didn't want to share her credit of work with someone else. Besides, by doing this she spend more time with the said person.

  Hachiman thought this girl's hopeless. He read somewhere that people get crazy when they fall in love, but he was able to withis kind of superficial thing in real life.

  Kushida, just sed the test paper. Although some of the tent is different from what she has learned now, if she takes the test, she still get 80 points!

  And Horikita's academic power is very good, so she probably achieve more than 90 points.

  Although she doesn't know why Horikita-san suddenly wants to be her partner...but it is defihe perfect opportunity to gain her favor.

  Because.....every time Kushida met Horikita, she was ignored or treated like shit, full of disdain. So, she was used to her... garbage-like treatment.

  'It's extremely insulting!' "Actually, if none of you do it, I alse Koenji to do this, ” Hachiman just wao put this nail in the coffin. No ce of getting unscrewed.

  Koenji's the academic leader in the css, a real-life monster in disguise, with such high physical abilities, it seems like taking some kind of heavy drugs.

  A very strange person, indeed. 　　But "Hikigaya-kun, it's not funny,” Kushida said as if he was joking. But he really wasn't. In other words, she actually hates Koenji.

  While deepening his analysis of Kushida's personal retionships, Hachiman took out his mobile phone and preteo check it, but he actually turned on the video.

  Then whe the phone back, he checked the video. You otice that in the er of the cafeteria, a girl with long purple hair and three hairpins is staring at this pce.

  And this suspicious looking person is, Kamuro-san, sittio her owner Sakayanagi.

  In other words, the other party may have discovered Kushida’s business of buyi papers.

  The students in Css A are really quite perverted.
