COTE: Broadcast of Hikigaya Hachiman

Chapter 4

　　"oh oh..."

　　Under Hirata Yosuke's unchanging smile, Hikigaya Hachiman sat down again.

　　The moment he sat down, the girl who had just been sitting next to him reading quietly, suddenly smiled without any hesitation.

　　'What is this? Is this school bullying? Is there any control? I feel like my self-esteem has been hit again.'

　　The boy was as sultry as ever, and it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with the result and the girl's ridicule of Komachi.

　　However, that was not the case. The girl was not mocking Komachi. She was just like all the other viewers, thinking that the boy in front of her was no different from a fool.'

　　"So...next..."

　　'You're next...'

　　Hikigaya Hachiman focused his eyes on the girl, but he didn't expect that a huge explosion sounded from another corner of the classroom.

　　"Bang!"

　　Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on the young man with short red hair like a hedgehog. At this moment, he was just like the blond ape-like guy. He put his feet on the table and crossed his arms across his chest, looking a little superior.

　　'What do you mean? Are the animals going to fight? What's this? Is Hedgehog Head going to take over other animals' territory?'

　　Hikigaya was obviously frightened by the sudden noise, but fortunately everyone's attention was not on him, so probably, perhaps, no one noticed.

　　"Do you think we are little brats?! If you want to do something like this, do it yourself!"

　　The arrogant voice of the red-haired hedgehog-headed boy made the atmosphere in the class become gloomy in an instant. No one paid attention to who Komachi was anymore. Instead, this unsociable guy would now become the common enemy of the class, a guy that everyone hated.

　　Not only is he arrogant, but he is also very unreasonable. No matter where he goes, it will be difficult for such a person to get along with others.

　　If...if he is still a burden in the class, he will be completely harmful garbage.

**

　　The boy's inner voice was truly heard by the audience. When the students in Class D heard that this arrogant guy actually evaluated them in this way, they were a little furious.

　　Sudo: "What's wrong with this guy? He has never appeared in our class before, otherwise I would have given him a couple of punches."

　　Sudo said this, and then made some violent gestures, like an immature child throwing a tantrum.

　　Everyone saw Sudo's behavior, but there was no way to stop her. Even after half a year of getting along, Sudo's growth was only minimal, but fortunately there was someone in the class who could teach him a lesson.

　　Horikita Suzune glanced at Sudo with some resentment, and immediately calmed his irritable temper...

　　Although Sudo will not do anything for the time being, the students in the class are still very upset about this. Why is this guy, who has never been seen in the video, now revealing their true faces and their stupid behaviors in the past?

　　'Who on earth is this guy?! '

　　This question once again puzzled everyone in Class D.

　　After hearing Hikigaya's inner voice, the kind-looking Kushida Kikyo realized that he had seen through her completely. At this moment, she could no longer show that friendly smile.

　　As long as he wants, he can expose the true colors of everyone in the class at any time, and I have no way to restrain him, because there is no such person in my class.

**

　　Of course, Hikigaya would not want to do such a boring thing. He is very clear that adding trouble to himself is the most stupid behavior of human beings. As long as it does not happen around him and does not affect him, he will not pay any attention to it.

　　Even if there are stars in the class, or people who are two-faced or have ulterior motives, it has nothing to do with him.

　　Of course, if you are frightened by this red-haired hedgehog, then there is still a certain connection.

　　The boy tried hard to calm himself down. The atmosphere in the class wasn't very good right now. Speaking of which, Hedgehog Hair, you did it on purpose. You'll become an enemy in the class if you're so unsociable.

　　Just when Hikigaya was still wondering if anyone would come to rescue him, the sound of hearty high-heeled footsteps slowly came from outside the classroom.

　　A tall lady wearing a women's suit, with a ponytail and eyes that seemed to penetrate everything, walked in step by step.

　　"Everyone, take your seats."

　　Just one sentence was enough to make everyone return to their seats. The only person who could possess such power could be the teacher.

　　"Is it true that there are so many single women in Japan? Why are you so obsessed with being a teacher? Go find a boyfriend."

　　This teacher with a high ponytail reminded him for a moment of his japanes teacher, Shizuka Hiratsuka. Thinking of her like this must be because he felt the same thing about the teacher in front of him as he did about Shizuka Hiratsuka, which was probably... that she was single.

**

　　Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at the cold words in the narration, which showed Hikigaya's inner voice. For a moment, it was as if thousands of sharp blades were stabbed into her chest. As a teacher...it was the first time she wanted to kill her own student so much.

　　Haruno said, "Well, sensei, it's okay. You are an independent woman in the new era. That's awesome!"

　　I feel like you is going to be moved to tears. Hey, wake up! Your students are playing tricks on you.

　　At the same time, Chabashira, who was also watching the video, sprayed out the hot water in her mouth. After teaching at Tokyo Ikusei High School for so many years, this was the first time she was called an older leftover woman..

　　Her hands were shaking with anger, and even the ceramic cup she was holding tightly in her hands might break into pieces in the next moment.

　　Seeing this, another teacher changed his gentle face and instantly became extremely cold and said: "If you hadn't been obsessed with that damn man, we wouldn't have taught here for decades, and you wouldn't be called an old leftover woman by your own students now."

　　When the man was mentioned, Chabashira became unusually calm. She gently put down the cup in her hand and said evasively as usual: "He is not my student..."

　　That spoken word seemed to be saying that I have no regrets.

　　The incident has passed. Although she cannot forgive him she does not want to mention it again. She also focuses on the video...

　　"At least, he is your student now."

**

　　When the boy was thinking this, he suddenly felt a sharp gaze from his teacher, which interrupted Hikigaya's thoughts.

　　"I am the homeroom teacher of Class D, Chabashira Sae. There will be no class changes in this school. I will be your homeroom teacher until you all graduate in three years."

　　Chabashira leisurely raised the information in his hand and continued:

　　"First, I will distribute the school's information to everyone, from front to back."

　　Hikigaya Hachiman looked at the document printed with "Tokyo Koukou Ikusei High School" and for a moment felt like he had entered the workplace ahead of time.

　　It has to be said that this doesn't feel like school at all.

　　"Our school has its own unique school rules. First of all, our school is a fully closed school. During the school day, we will restrict you from leaving the school and contacting the outside world. But don't worry, students. There are various entertainment facilities and infrastructure in the school that can meet all your life needs."

　　Hikigaya had observed this when he first entered the school, and everything the teacher said was also written in the student handbook.

　　only...

　　she slowly took out a mobile phone from the file bag. Because this school is a closed school, even the mobile phones are provided by the school to students.

　　If you want to make purchases on campus, you must use the points saved in your student ID card to make purchases.

　　"In this school, points can buy everything..."

　　"Points are everything, right? Apparently, points here are like currency in the outside world... or in other words, they can even buy things that currency can't."

　　Hikigaya took out his mobile phone from the file bag, confirmed that it was the tailor-made phone, and slowly opened the points interface.

　　The huge amount of 100,000 points caught his eyes...

　　"On the first day of every month, the points will be transferred to your account, one point is worth one yuan..."

　　"This month's 100,000 points should have been sent to you."

　　"Wow..."

　　Hearing that they could get a huge amount of points every month, everyone in the class was instantly excited. You know, in Japan, it is very difficult for most young people to find a job with a monthly salary of 100,000 yen, but in this school, they don't have to do anything and can earn 100,000 points every month.

　　Hearing this shocking news, even Hikigaya's mouth couldn't help twitching.

　　This is a full 100,000 points. Hikigaya has never touched so much money in his life.

　　And now, he didn't have to do anything and was given 100,000 points directly.

　　"One hundred thousand!"

　　"Really...?"

**

　　Looking at the once familiar scene, the students in Class D of the first year could no longer look back at this scene. You know, they had no idea how cruel this school was before... The so-called 100,000 points were just a cover.

　　Kushida Kikyo: "Well, if I hadn't been absent from class every day, I wouldn't have had no class points left. I guess the next few months wouldn't have been so difficult."

Kushida Kikyo is still as exquisite as ever. Although she said it was a pity, she still had that friendly smile on her face.

　　Of course, her words also made many boys nod in agreement. If they had been more aware and the people in the class were smarter, they wouldn't have ended up with a class score of 0 in the first month.

　　 "If you want to blame someone, you can only blame this school's broken system. Moreover, the teacher didn't even tell the students about such an important matter. Isn't this just a way to intimidate us?!"

　　the excuses made the classmates nod in agreement. Because they could not accept their own failure, they needed to find a solace that was taken for granted.

　　Ayanokouji never said a word from beginning to end. Although he once discovered the abnormal system of the school, he had no idea what kind of system it was, so he did not make any move to change it. So what should you do, young man?

**

　　"Are you scared by the amount of money they gave out? This school judges students based on their abilities. Since you've entered this school, your basic abilities are worth that much money."

　　Chabashira Sae did not continue to talk like the others. She just briefly mentioned the school system and the S-point rating system, and did not say much more.

　　But in fact, Hikigaya is still a little confused about what the S point evaluation system is.

　　Having recovered from the excitement just now, Hikigaya still felt a little unbelievable when looking at the points in his hand. You know, when he was studying at Sobu High School, his parents only gave him 5,000 yen for living expenses. He used a bicycle to go to and from school, and basically ate at home. In addition to drinking MAX coffee, he didn't have any other expenses. Over time, he could even buy some games to play, but... now he was given 100,000 points directly. Even in such a public school, Hikigaya Hachiman still couldn't believe it.

　　Sure enough, there must be some problem.

　　According to my own calculation just now, there are only 25 people in a class. If other classes are like this, there will be four classes in a grade, and there will be 12 classes in three grades. Each person is given 100,000 points per month, which means 360 million points per year, which is Japanese yen. This kind of expenditure is absolutely impossible even with government support.

　　Moreover, based on his observation just now, this school is not full of geniuses. The reference object is himself. He can't believe it. Could it be that his science scores will improve dramatically after coming to this school? Obviously, it is unrealistic. Even if he has a liberal arts score as a foundation, since the science score is already so low, the comprehensive upper limit is already fixed. Even if he excludes himself, the red-haired hedgehog head just now is his second reference object.

　　I always feel that his grades won't be that good.

　　Is it worth spending so much money to train a student like me?

　　Hikigaya Hachiman had to ask himself.

　　The answer is naturally no. He still couldn't believe that his life was worth 100,000 points a month. Just as Chabashi Sae said, if the so-called S-point rating system was based on personal value, then he would be a bastard with 0 points.

**

　　Hikigaya's thoughts are being conveyed to all students in this school at all times.

　　Ryuuen: "Oh? How come I've never seen this guy before? He's quite capable. He actually saw through the school's trick in such a short time."

　　Ichinose looked at the boy with some concern. This kind-hearted girl had always remembered the bus incident in her heart. His behavior at that time undoubtedly shocked Ichinose . However... this kind-hearted girl, although not in the same class as the boy, felt sorry for him.

　　Class A has always been a far-ahead class. Apart from some minor class conflicts, it has always relied on Sakayanagi's powerful mind to face all the current exams. However... looking at the boy in front of him, Sakayanagi seems to have a certain interest in a boy for the second time.

　　"It's really interesting. It's just like a... monster with excessive self-awareness."

　　Sakayanagi gave a meaningful smile, and then focused his attention on the video again.

　　The people in Class D were completely dumbfounded. Most of them had no idea about this rule, and by the time Chabashira-sensei announced it, they had already regretted it. However, the boy in front of them had already figured out the problems after just a brief observation.

　　Shinohara: "This is simply... too incredible. How can there be such a smart being?"

　　Hirata Yosuke: "If I had known then, I would have warned everyone, but I'm not that smart."

　　Kushida Kikyo also pretended to be very regretful and echoed: "Me too..."

　　Sudo: "He actually discovered the trap of this school..."

　　[Chabashira crossed his arms across his chest, as if he was watching a play: "Oh? You actually found out."

　　Ayanokouji: "So...what would you do?"

　　Ayanokouji stared at the boy in front of him. Until now, the boy's actions have not been wrong at all. If he wants to erase his existence, he must first be different from himself in nature, and... if he wants to change the timeline, then... the method he chooses should also be different from himself.

　　However, Ayanokouji couldn't understand why the killer in the white room was such an overly self-conscious guy.

　　You know, the white house price will kill all emotions. In this way, the heart can still maintain such a calm state of mind, which is something that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka did not expect.

　　However, this does not mean that he is afraid. He is the greatest masterpiece in the white room. Even if there are many assassins, he will not choose to avoid the battle. After all, he has never felt what fear is since he was born.

**

　　The boy held the mobile phone in his hand and kept calculating the school's annual expenses. After confirming it again and again, he was sure that the school could not spend so many points.

　　You know, 360 million, a number that many companies cannot even achieve, appears on a school, and now it does not include other expenses. If the cost of paying students alone is 360 million, the entire world will not exist.

　　So...what is the purpose of Chabashira-sensei saying this?

　　"It seems that this school is more interesting than I thought."

　　Hikigaya surprisingly did not continue to complain. If he had been attracted by these 100,000 points just now, he would have run to the game hall and bought two game consoles the moment the get out of class was over.
