Welcome to reality

Early in the morning, Hikigaya Hachiman opened his eyes. Today is May 1st, the day the school issues points.

Open your phone to make sure the number 897000 is the same as last night.

Class D is really zero points.

Dean--!

At that moment, a message sounded from the phone, Hikigaya opened it and saw that it was actually from Sakayanagi, which is really rare.

After all, this girl seems to prefer face-to-face conversations.

Sakayanagi: [Good morning Hikigaya-kun, are you awake? ]

Hikigaya: [...Waking up, but please don't ask me for points]

Sakayanagi: [Hehe, I got 94,000 points this morning just like Hikigaya-kun said]

Sakayanagi: [By the way, how much did you get? ]

Stop it! I told you not to ask about it!

At that moment, Sakayanagi's evil smiling face seemed to appear before Hikigaya's eyes, this person was indeed a little devil.

Hikigaya: [... 0]

Sakayanagi: [Really amazing, as expected of Hikigai-kun, the prediction is absolutely correct]

Sakayanagi: [Congratulations]

Hikigaya: [? ]

What is there to congratulate with zero points!

... ah, very depressed early in the morning.

Although he had already guessed the outcome, when the facts were actually in front of him, Hikigaya still couldn't help but feel a little...regret?

There is nothing.

After all, it was the guys who did it on their own.

Hikigaya shook his head, gathered his courage and began to prepare for today's lesson.

...

When he came to class, it was noisier than usual, everyone was talking about the points, and many complained that the points were spent and why no new ones came.

100,000 spent per month ... Indeed, there should be a limit to stupidity.

Hikigaya laughed in his heart, and as soon as his butt dropped, Matsushita Chiaka, who was sitting in front of him, came over to talk.

"Good morning Hikigaya-kun, did you get points?"

"I got."

"Yeah, looks like it's not...huh?! Did you get it? Really!" Matsushita asked in surprise.

"Of course it's true." Hikigaya rested his chin with one hand and said with a bored expression, "Look again at your phone and look at the numbers on it. Class D got them all anyway."

"But I've confirmed it several times, and others... Huh?"

Matsushita suddenly felt that something was wrong. Why did Hikigaya-kun want to focus not only on the numbers, but also on Class D?

It always seems to imply something.

Looking at Matsushita thoughtfully lowering his head, Hikigaya was not embarrassed. This girl has a good head, but probably because she always mixed with a group of fools, it was as if she had been dipped in warm water, which made her think less.

After a while, we will all know.

Shortly after, the school bell rang and Chabashira-sensei entered the classroom as usual and began speaking at the morning meeting.

However, today her mood was very different and her expression was usually more serious, probably because of the glasses.

However, some fools just don't know how to look at facial expressions, such as Ikyo, one of the three fools.

"Master Sae-chan, you must have missed your period!"

In other words, this guy has always said that he wants to be popular, so why would he say such words that will clearly disgust women. Hikigaya really couldn't understand the circuitry of his brain.

He doesn't really think he's funny, does he?

Chabashira-sensei completely ignored Ikyo's harassment and said with a blank face, "The morning meeting will start next, but before that, you should have something to ask. If you're worried about something, it's best to ask now."

"Well, I checked this morning and found that no points were received. Aren't they distributed on the 1st of every month? I couldn't buy juice, so I'm in a hurry."

"As I said earlier, points are credited to the account on the 1st of each month. The school has confirmed this. There are no loopholes here."

"But… I didn't get it?"

The main hall, Yamauchi and the others looked at each other, but Chabashira-sensei did not look at them, but began to look around the whole class, as if observing the reaction of all the students.

Hikigaya clearly felt that when Chabashira-sensei's gaze flickered over him, the corner of the teacher's mouth lifted slightly.

...Ah, I was followed?

When Hikigu was puzzled, Chabashira-sensei's aura suddenly changed on stage.

"You really are a bunch of stupid students."

A sentence came out of Chabashira-sensei's mouth that clearly referred to the teacher's disqualification, but Hikigaya was used to being talked about badly, so it didn't matter.

What worries him more is the strange feeling contained in these words.

There seems to be more joy than anger.

Is... Chabashira-sensei a masochist?

In the face of a teacher with a strange atmosphere, the students could only open their mouths, confused, only Hikigaya came up with some stupid things.

"I repeat, points have gone to the account, that's for sure, don't have illusions that only this class is forgotten, understand?"

"No, even if you ask us if we understand... Actually, the points just didn't come..."

With a confused look, the audience looked around for approval, after which there was a burst of laughter.

"Hahaha, that's right, teacher, I already figured out this riddle."

The one who speaks is the most exclusive boy in the class - Kouenji Rokusuke. I don't know why this guy always likes to add a few English words to his speech. Is this a deliberate addition to his character?

He put his feet on the table like no one else and pointed arrogantly at the hall.

"The answer is very simple, that is, our class D received zero points."

"BUT? Why didn't you say that every month there will be 100,000 points?"

"I don't remember hearing of such a thing, do you, rotten boy?"

Koenji chuckled and said a strange word.

What's even weirder is that Hikigaya feels like everyone is looking back at him... Huh?

Who is a rotten kid, I have a sad soul!

"...Why are you asking me?"

Hikigaya Hachiman was even shocked, he never thought that Koenji would call him here, or that he didn't remember talking to this guy.

"Haven't you solved this riddle a long time ago, so this honor should be yours."

Koenji had a "come and thank me sir" expression. If it wasn't for the difference in combat power, Hikigaya would really want to beat him.

You want to pretend to be cool. Why are you messing with me!

I've seen people pulling others into the sea, but I've never seen people pulling others together to pretend to be cool together!

By the way, how did this guy know?

Maybe... Did you hear the conversation between him and Matsushita this morning?

Thinking about it, Hikigaya's score is the only possibility. He originally wanted to turn Matsushita's rusty head, so he said a little more, but he didn't expect Koenji to hear it.

This guy was sitting on the seat and scratching his nails, but in reality he was only pretending and secretly eavesdropping on other people's conversations.

It's so tasteless!
