THE CLASSROOM OF THE ELITE

3.VOLUME 4 Part 3

As soon as I got back to my room, I found it hard to sleep. I

noticed a voice and checked it even though I didn't see

my roommates Yukimura and Kouneji. However,

"Sorry, did I wake you up?"

It was Hirata who spoke as he arranged his luggage

neatly while looking at me apologetically. Looks like he

be prepared to leave the room since she put on her uniform.

"No need to apologize, I just can't sleep well,

anyway, I just wanted to go out for a drink because I was

thirsty"

Of course, I didn't say this to Hirata, but I was deep

a trip to check on Horikita's condition.

"Can I accompany you? We got a message from the school and this

it's almost time"

It's almost 20:30 by Horikita's message

instruct him to gather in the meeting.

"It looks like a slightly unusual exam is about to begin, at least

that's how I feel"

It seemed like Hirata already knew the contents of the exam after hearing from

the student who had obtained an explanation before him.

"Yukimura-kun, he said it in the cafeteria. About your group

(Rabbit) and how everyone accepts explanations one after another"

Yukimura doesn't like Hirata very much, but she still tells him

because it might increase our group's chances of success

although slightly.

In short, if you knew the contents of the exam before that explanation would be easier

to gather clues from the explanation itself. In this case,

by working with a more popular person like Hirata's

could benefit.

"If there's something you've been thinking about, Ayanokouji-kun, please share it

to me"

"I wonder about that, unlike Horikita, you or Yukimura.

I'm not very smart so I don't think much at all

this exam..especially"

Of course, there was no way I would tell Hirata more than that

are necessary.

"I wonder why they would bother separating us into

in a group to explain the same thing to us

separated"

Indeed as Hirata spoke, it would be much more efficient and less

take time to explain to all members of the group

gather together separately.

Schools use methods that are clearly inefficient, but likely

great not only on will. It's more like there's no reason behind it

this method. Perhaps 'thinking ability' is assessed in this exam

it's part of that.

"I plan to ask sensei about it later"

I wonder if the gears will rotate efficiently in case

these. I wonder if Hirata is nominally representing Class D,

will be able to work efficiently with students of other classes by

consider all the rules we have to follow in the exam

these.

The meeting place of Hirata will take place not so crowded as the moment

meeting happens. There were still some disciples, some sitting on the stairs

near the elevator, some were messing around with their cell phones and

some are still speculating on the explanation they will receive.

"I doubt all this will be part of my group" murmured.

Hirate.

Even some time ago observations showed that there is more

of the 10 people gathered here. They all glanced at each other

and sometimes while playing with their cell phones. Unfortunately, I

does not recognize students from other classes and cannot identify

most of them.

"Who have we just passed?"

"It was Morimiya-kun from Class A. And the one near the elevator is Tokito-Tokito

kun from Class C".

I-i understand. I make sure to remember the name and face of the student

other grade. Of course, this number was still a bit compared to

the crowd I saw last night.

When I came with Hirata to his meeting location, some

male and female disciples gathered in front of the door of the room

confluence. So we approached the crowd without a sound.

"If I'm not wrong, you're also from the 20:40 group, right?".

The one who asked in a low voice was Katsuragi from Class A.

A calm person with an unbelievable adult attitude is actually

a High School Grade 1 student. The physical is pretty good too.

The first impression of him may be more on the ranks of a student.

There are still some people who support him as the leader of Class A.

"If so, does this have anything to do with you?"

A woman with long black hair answered

the question is without doubt or fear.

"No. But I just want to talk to you. It all started

tomorrow. We will work together as part of a group that

same"

The woman Katsuragi made this statement was none other than Horikita

Suzune. It seems like Hirata and Horikita will also be in the group

same with Katsuragi.

"You want to talk now? Thats cute. One day you'll get rid of

we're when we come to talk"

Horikita spit back at him. On an exam on an uninhabited island, the,

Horikita and Katsuragi met each other only once. On time

that, Katsuragi showed little interest in Horikita. Seems

now different.

"If one day you go from Class D to Class C, remember that Class A

will not show mercy before destroying you

become a part"

“It was a very small thing to say, like any, between

class A and other classes, the points gap is too wide to bridge"

"Of course, but caution is required every time a class

potentially move up to a higher position. I'll say that thing

same with Class B or Class C".

This almost sounds like Katsuragi declaring war

against Class D. But how else, after the last test, obviously

we will be known as a threat.

Almost like a balance, the disciples around Katsuragi were all

gathered to look at Horikita in an intimidating way.

An ordinary woman cried loudly after being stared at

like that, but Horikita showed almost no reaction at all

against this intimidation. Suddenly, the faces of the women around

we turned into adoring expressions as a man silently

passed us.

It was a student from Class B named Kanzaki. Although her hair is a little

long for a male disciple, he did have a personality

the honest and seen are not much involved in activities that are not

evidently.

I don't know much about Kanzaki in detail but the leader of Class B,

Ichinose, seems to believe it. After meeting during the exam in

towards Katsuragi as if to protect Horikita from him.

“You don't need to talk to Katsuragi, however, the situation

it's like that"

"Don't worry, I'm used to people who

looking down on Class D"

Horikita declined her offer to help.

"I see, someone from a class like D should be used to

getting this treatment, I have to admit that I also have

same view of your class. But what happened in

the island made me change my view of your class"

Katsuragi said that sentence while wiping the dust off her clothes.

"But just because you're lucky and won once, I want you not to

being arrogant and thinking that we're the same now"

"...What does that mean?" Horikita asked him in response.

"What I want to say is that there is a moment in life

everyone when they are lucky once and managed to close a little gap, but do not get big heads just because of lucky events

these. The difference between our classes, the difference in points is still a thing

that's amazing"

I see, it seems like he wants to say that the results of one exam

it will not affect the class position that much. Of course, you are,

Horikita must have understood that as well. Because none of these are

his achievements from the beginning, Horikita was neither happy nor disappointed with the words

said. But it is very important that the cards befall him to continue

hiding my existence.

"We've just started our school life, the difference may be

great, but do not forget that it is an arbitrary school

wenang decides who goes to which class and we are distributed to

classes are appropriate"

"Hirata, it looks like you're part of a little group

troublesome," I told him.

"It was inevitable when we were grouped with Katsuragi-kun and

Kanzaki-kun, I think"

"No. .. It's not so,"

"Hmm?"

"My nails, there seems to be a lot of weak people gathered here, though,

let me have some fun here"

"Ryuuen, huh?"

Katsuragi lost her previously calm expression and even expression

Kanzaki turned wary.

"Have you also been placed into this room? Or are you a coincidence

just through?"

"Unfortunately, I'm with you"

Ryuuen instantly answered the question while the other three students

obediently walking behind him.

She almost resembles Katsuragi in that respect, but the context

be different. Almost like the situation with a king and his servants.

The disciples behind Ryuuen had frightened expressions on their faces

and move silently with obedient movements.

"What if you put on a show for me? Beauty and the

Beast could be the title"

ryuuen said as he looked at Horikita and Katsuragi respectively.

After realizing the actual provocation, Katsuragi returns to the

normal and calm.

"Initially I thought our group would have students with

high academic ability but after seeing you and your friends,

I can see clearly this is not going to happen"

"academic ability? Really bullshit, have

academic ability means nothing"

"Hearing that from you is shame, academic ability is

the most important factor that determines your future success in

your life and ability to influence the future. Even

it is said that Japan is built on an academic community"

But it didn't seem to surprise Ryuuen at all. I'm thinking

that saying such a thing to an idiot like Ryuuen is not

will effective. Behind him, his three minions obediently

nod their heads at the words of their leaders.

"I will never forget this humiliation"

“Hah? An insult? I don't remember ever doing anything like that, though,

Can you remind me?" Ryuuen makes fun of Katsuragi.

"It doesn't matter, because we are in the same group, we are

have a chance to talk at length later"

Katsuragi ended the conversation realizing how to explain

for the group they are almost about to begin.

"Hmm? Hirata-kun's? And even Ayanokouji-kun? What you guys are doing

here?"

Kushida called us as she approached the group with

a strange expression on his face.

"Could it be that Kushida-san is also in the group of 20:40?"

"Yes, I don't understand what happened but I was told to come to

this place is at this hour by message. and wow.

amazing people gathered here"

kushida said as he walked around the crowd of students

gather here one by one.

"Are you okay, Hirata? Looks like it's gonna be tough" I

ask Hirata.

"I'm fine, I don't mind, no matter who's in

my group, I have to do my best"

Hirata as usual answered very positively. Kushida may

not understanding the situation but Hirata is a smart person. Because I

already received an explanation for this exam early, looking at a group of

the people gathered here, more or less I understand what will be

happen.

“Ummm .. however, it looks like something difficult is about to start?"

"Yes it seems like that, you better prepare yourself for it" I said

to him.

"Ahaha .. As Hirata-kun said, I must also do my best

down here. Also, I never got to talk much with Katsuragi-san

kun or Ryuuen-kun, I want to be friends with the two of them as well "

"I won't stay here for this stupid talk, I will

go ahead. It's almost time"

Horikita just shook her head and turned to us, but

not before looking coldly at Ryuuen and his entourage.

I want to commend Horikita on this. The weak will tend

lower their heads and unite themselves into groups

and treat themselves as inferior in

tiers.

Horikita, on the other hand, without losing any resistance, coldly refused

everything and remain as before.

"Looks, I shouldn't have bothered to worry" I murmured.

Of course, I'm not sure how long he can keep that attitude with

members in his group but it shouldn't last long. That is

my mind.

"Hopefully it works,"

I express support with sympathy towards Hirata and

decided to leave that place.
