Chapter 22 You asked me to give up my seat

______

[Host, the mission has begun to be communicated.]

[Host, please increase your personal points to 300,000 within today.]

[After completion, you can obtain 10 personal quality enhancement points (random enhancement).]

[Attention, attention, attention!]

[If the host obtains personal points through a method that the system does not recognize, the system has the right to exclude those personal points from the statistics.]

Rin Matsuoka's smile paused, and then he curled his lips.

This guy, the narrator, can't afford to play around with this, as he not only limits the methods of completing the task, but also sets a time limit to finish it.

Didn't Rin just take advantage of a loophole to complete his mission? Was there really a need to target him like this...

The narration system is just like the chairman, both are petty.

"To increase my personal points to 300,000, that means I need to find a way to get 200,000 personal points, and I'll have to resort to methods that avoid taking advantage of loopholes…"

Rin whispered softly.

By the end of today, Rin had to find a legitimate way to obtain 200,000 personal points, so that his total would reach 300,000.

Although the reward for this task isn't ability-related, Rin doesn't intend to miss out on those ten points of personal quality enhancement.

You must know that every point of personal quality improvement will bring great benefits to Rin.

Besides, it's not like obtaining 200,000 personal points through legitimate means is a problem for Rin. He has plenty of ways to do it.

Since the first-year teacher's office wasn't far away in the first-year teaching building, Chabashira Sae quickly brought Rin Matsuoka and Horikita Suzune to the teacher's office.

After Chabashira Sae sat down, Horikita Suzune immediately asked, "Chabashira-sensei, why did you call the two of us here?"

Although Horikita Suzune's questions were direct and straightforward, which seemed a bit impolite, Chabashira Sae just liked this kind of no-nonsense student.

So Chabashira Sae didn't hold back. She said to Horikita Suzune, "I called you here because you gave up your seat to an elderly person while riding the bus."

"What?" Horikita Suzune looked surprised, and Rin Matsuoka raised an eyebrow.

"Actually, this was a test arranged by the school. The school assigned elderly people to every bus. If a student gave up their seat, they would receive a personal reward of up to 5,000 points."

"I see."

Now Rin and Horikita Suzune finally understood what the old lady meant before she left...

It turns out that doing good deeds really does get rewarded.

Chabashira Sae pulled out her cell phone from her suit pocket and said to Horikita Suzune, "Now, Horikita, take out your cell phone. On behalf of the school, I'll give you 5,000 points."

Horikita Suzune didn't take out her cell phone. Instead, she looked at Rin Matsuoka beside her.

"Rin, these 5,000 points are yours. Go ahead and take them."

"Why?" Rin asked in confusion. Chabashira Sae, who had no idea about the details of giving up his seat, looked surprised.

"You were the one who told me to give up my seat," Horikita Suzune answered concisely and clearly.

Rin replied with a subtle expression, "But you're the one who actually gave up your seat."

"That's true, but I only gave it up because I lost the game of rock-paper-scissors and had no choice."

"But it was still your seat that was given up."

Chabashira Sae, watching the exchange in silence, finally said, "You two can stop pushing this back and forth. I'm going to award the 5,000 points, and you can divide them however you see fit."

"I agree with sensei's suggestion. Rin, just take out your phone," Horikita Suzune added firmly.

Rin Matsuoka didn't want to argue with Horikita Suzune anymore. He was a little hungry and just wanted to finish things quickly so that he could head to the student cafeteria for lunch.

When Chabashira Sae transferred 5,000 personal points to Rin using her cell phone, Rin caught a glimpse of the homeroom teacher's personal point balance.

The total was—1,755,608.

If these more than 1.75 million points could be exchanged for cash, then Chabashira Sae would be considered a wealthy woman.

"Chabashira-sensei, you have a lot of personal points," Rin said with a cheerful tone.

"Well, because the salary we teachers receive from the school is divided into two parts—cash and personal points," Chabashira Sae explained casually.

After all, teachers like Chabashira Sae lived alongside the students in this school, and they needed to use personal points to buy things, so their salary was split between cash and personal points.

The salaries of employees at Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing High School were very high, so over time, Chabashira Sae had accumulated a large number of personal points.

Rin accepted the 5,000 points from Chabashira Sae, and the matter of giving up his seat on the bus was settled.

"By the way, Chabashira-sensei, you called Horikita over because of the bus seat, but what about me? Why did you call me as well?" Rin asked.

"Of course, I called you here because I have something to discuss with you," Chabashira Sae answered in her usual cold tone, then turned to look at Horikita Suzune.

"Horikita, your business is done. You can leave now. I need to talk privately with Matsuoka."

??

Both Rin and Horikita Suzune had question marks in their minds. They couldn't figure out what secret matter the homeroom teacher wanted to discuss with Rin.

Chabashira Sae had called Horikita Suzune to the teacher's office to reward her for giving up her seat on the bus.

The reason Rin Matsuoka was summoned, however, was because Chabashira Sae wanted to ask him directly why he had scored zero points in all subjects, and to assess his academic abilities.

Although Horikita Suzune had a difficult and troublesome personality, she wasn't unreasonable. She glanced at Rin, said goodbye to Chabashira Sae, and left the office.

However, Horikita didn't go far after leaving the teacher's office. She stood just outside the door, preparing to eavesdrop on the conversation.

In fact, Horikita usually found it beneath her to eavesdrop on others' conversations. But sometimes, certain matters and certain people could stir her interest enough that she'd unintentionally let her guard down.

Just like now~

Once Horikita left, only Rin Matsuoka and Chabashira Sae remained in the office.

Before starting her conversation with Rin, Chabashira felt the urge to smoke, but considering it inappropriate to do so in front of a student, she suppressed the urge.

"Rin, I have something I want to ask you."

"What a coincidence, Chabashira-sensei. I have something I want to ask you, too."

"Really? Then go ahead first."

Chabashira, as the homeroom teacher, invited Rin to voice his question.
