It was less than three o'clock when the optional exams for Class B and Class C ended early. After all, the main events designed by the two classes were short competitions, so it was normal for them to end early.
Class 1-B, Ichinose returned to the classroom in a panic.
"Hikki, everyone," she said as she quickly walked over to Hikigaya and looked at Hamaguchi and others who appeared pale.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, it's just a little injury," they forced a smile, looking almost exhausted, which made Hikigaya feel a little sympathetic. He had a real skin injury, but Hamaguchi and others were really miserable.
However, it had been almost two days. A few more days of rest should be enough, and spring break would happen right after.
"That's good," Ichinose couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and bowed with a guilty conscience.
"I'm sorry, everyone, because I, as a leader, failed to live up to expectations, I lost the exam."
Without a doubt, Class B lost the game with a score of three to four. The only thing to be thankful for was that in Class C's main event, they came back and ended the exam by deducting 30 class points.
However, when they reach the second grade, they will also fall into Class C with a gap of about 20 points. Under the leadership of Ichinose, not only did they not grow this year, they fell directly into Class C.
Thinking about this, Ichinose felt even more ashamed.
"That's not the case," Kobashi Yume's pretty face was a little angry and said:
"Honami-chan has worked very hard, but Ryuuen and the others are really despicable."
"Well, their methods are really cruel..."
Several pale classmates couldn't help but nod.
I originally thought that Class C only occasionally caused trouble and pressure for them. Although it was shameful, it was not incomprehensible after all, it was an exam. The patience is over. But to actually give them laxatives is simply too much.
"Yes," Amikura Mako couldn't help but nod.
"It would be better to say that Honami-chan can achieve such results, which is already very impressive."
"No," Ichinose said with some bitterness.
"This is all the credit of Hikki and Shibata-kun, I can't do anything about it."
"There's nothing we can do about it."
Kanzaki frowned a little solemnly and said:
"I didn't expect that Ryuuen would become the command tower of Class C. This was also our mistake." People with no protection points actually risked dropping out of school to become a commander. It was beyond everyone's expectations. You don't need to guess to know that Ichinose must have had a very difficult battle up there, and she only lost one game in such a difficult situation.
There are also plenty of excuses for defeat. I don't blame them for not working hard, I can only blame Ryuuen for being so unexpected.
However, Hikigaya looked at the small hand on his shoulder, although he didn't know why Ichinose put her hand on his shoulder.
Just take it. Where there are winners, there will naturally be losers. Even if you were a winner one second, you may lose the next second. Everyone in this world will lose. And remember, failure is just success in disguise. There is nothing shameful in defeat.
The only problem is, you can make as many excuses as you want, but what matters is whether you can learn from this exam.
"All right," Ichinose said, feeling the encouraging eyes of everyone. He pursed his lips and smiled, then looked at Hamaguchi and others.
"Hamaguchi, what do you think is better? " "Do you want to appeal to the school?"
After all, Hamaguchi and others were the victims who were given laxatives. They naturally have the most say. Hikigaya glanced at Kobashi Yume and others around him, and it seemed that he was the only one who felt something was wrong.
"Um…" Several people in Hamaguchi looked at each other, and someone hesitated and said,
"I think we should forget it. The event designed by Class C this time, even if we can fully participate in the exam, it will be difficult to win. Now that we have only lost one game, it should be considered a relatively lucky result, and we also found out that Ryuuen has become the leader of Class C again. It's better not to cause any more trouble."
Class C's strategy this time was indeed clever. It fully brought out the strengths of Class C. And in seven projects, Class C immediately had four projects, and Class B had three. Luck was also on Class C's side.
In a normal game, if Class C didn't use underhanded tactics, Hikigaya might just wait for the Japanese test. Results are difficult to change.
"Ichinose, what do you think?" Ichinose also nodded in relief and said,
"This time we were indeed caught off guard by Ryuuen. This is probably the best result we can achieve. Rather than appealing to the school, I want to take this incident as a lesson."
"I agree too," Hamaguchi and the others nodded with pale faces. It was just diarrhea. This result was already very good. Since the victim himself said so, others naturally could not say anything.
Hikigaya on the side couldn't help but look down at the textbook on the table. Honestly, Ryuuen gave them laxatives. They are really using dirty method.
But Hikigaya didn't care whether they had to appeal to the school, he just felt that Ryuuen's method was a bit stupid. Regardless, Ichinose wanted to take this incident as a lesson to grow up. Or will the appeal to the school become a means to restrict Ryuuen. Hikigaya thinks there is no problem.
After all, if you can't find evidence, it won't change any results. There is no practical significance in doing this kind of thing. To be honest, he didn't have much contact with Ichinose. In addition to the three-legged partnership between the two at the sports festival, they learned about Ichinose's past when they were rumored, and then confessed to Ichinose.
The two of them didn't have much contact. It can only be seen from the surface that Ichinose is beautiful, kind-hearted, has excellent academic performance, has a past of stealing and is very guilty. Hikigaya's understanding of Ichinose is really shallow. How does Ichinose understand the identity of a leader?
How to understand the leader's responsibilities, how to understand the leader's power, and how to understand her position.
As for these, Hikigaya has no idea. He can only see that Ichinose blames herself, he can only see that she is working very hard, and he can only see that she genuinely wants to lead everyone to Class A. Compared to these, Hikigaya cares more about the essence of the matter.
That is, why did Kanzaki take the chemistry test! That's right. Regardless of whether Hamaguchi and others wanted to appeal to the school, or whether Ichinose arranged for him to have a duel with Albert, Hikigaya didn't really care. They either treat him as an abandoned child, or they have inexplicable expectations for him.
It doesn't matter what the reason is. Hikigaya doesn't even care. The only thing that matters is the reason why Ichinose arranged for Kanzaki to take a chemistry test. The main player Hamaguchi and others were unable to participate, and the others were basically mediocre, but Kanzaki was the all-around second-in-command of Class B.
Mixing the gang together for a chemistry test is a bit outrageous. Either give up and send some abandoned players to play, or fight the challenge with all your strength. Either way, it's no problem. But this kind of half-hearted arrangement is simply not like a qualified leader, not even as good as Kaneda.
Others may not take it to heart, but Hikigaya does. What on earth was Ichinose thinking about just now?
Who would make such stupid arrangements?
