Soon, night arrived and Fang Li made his way back to his room, dissolving into the crowd as he went. As he looked around his room, he couldn't help but murmur to himself, "It's been almost a month since I arrived here..."
Normally, after a month of living in a room, one would have left their personal touch on it, wouldn't they? Girls like Kushida Kikyou would decorate their rooms with dolls, mirrors, cosmetics, and brightly colored furniture, giving their room a distinctly feminine feel. Boys, on the other hand, might fill their rooms with basketballs, footballs, game consoles, posters, and the like. In this way, a person's room would reflect their style and proclaim that the room belonged to them.
However, Fang Li's room was completely different. It was almost identical to the way it was when he first arrived, except for the presence of a few books on the bookshelf. These books included textbooks, reference books, and data sets needed for class, as well as various detective fiction that Fang Li had borrowed from the library, and even some famous books.
If a room reflects a person's style after they've lived in it for a while, could the bookshelf be said to reflect Fang Li's style? Simple, practical, plain, and quiet - this was a perfect reflection of Fang Li's life. Fang Li never found this kind of life difficult, even though he had been living like this since childhood. It was simply a matter of fact that Fang Li was not the type of person who cared much about material possessions.
If one day, Fang Li were to become an ordinary person and talk about love, have a girlfriend, he would still prefer to live a simple and ordinary lifestyle, without needing too much excitement. This wasn't just Fang Li's wish; it was his personal selfishness. "After all, the first half of my life has been exciting enough," he thought to himself. If he continued to seek out stimulation, he might end up losing his life.
But why couldn't life at this school just calm down? This was a premonition, a sign...
Fang Li glanced at his cell phone and noted the date displayed.
"Tomorrow is the start of a new month," he thought, realizing that change was on the horizon.
"Given the events of the past few weeks, it's likely that the school's secret will soon be revealed."
Fang Li had anticipated this moment and wondered if Ayanokouji had as well. He regarded Ayanokoji Kiyotaka as the most exceptional individual in Class 1-D, someone who, despite his ideology of escaping, could effortlessly score 50 marks on every subject in the entrance exam. Fang Li had realized early on that Ayanokoji was not an ordinary person. The way he carried himself, the depth of his eyes - all of it hinted at something more.
"Could a guy with that look be ordinary?" Fang Li grinned at the thought.
He knew Ayanokoji would dismiss such claims as mere speculation, but Fang Li trusted his own intuition, just as he believed in the hidden meaning behind Kushida Kikyou's eyes.
"If I get the chance, I'll investigate further," he mused.
With that in mind, Fang Li retrieved his cell phone and opened the chat group.
In the chat group led by Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki, a group of clueless boys in Class 1-D were actively discussing.
"I went on a date with Kushida-chan today!" (Ike)
"Is that true or false!?" (Sotomura)
"He must be lying!" (Hondou)
"Deceptive, I say!" (Okitani)
"Lying? What are you saying? If you don't believe me, you can ask Yamauchi!" (Ike)
"Yamauchi, is it true?" (Kikuchi)
"Yeah, it's true. By the way, I was there too!" (Yamauchi)
"Did you guys go out with Kushida together?" (Minami)
"Well, isn't it normal to hang out and have fun with friends?" (Ijuuin)
"I'm shocked!" (Miyamoto)
The boys in the class were engaged in such a heated discussion.
Looking at this discussion, Fang Li had only one thought.
"Kushida Kikyou is definitely popular."
Perhaps in terms of looks, there were many girls in the school who could compete with Kushida Kikyou. Even in Class 1-D, Hasebe Haruka not only looked beautiful but also had a better figure than Kushida Kikyou.
However, when it came to popularity, the entire first grade of the school couldn't really compare with Kushida Kikyou.
Being cute was one thing, but the most important thing was that Kushida Kikyou was kind and thoughtful, making everyone feel welcomed and favored by boys. It was only natural that she would be so well-liked.
Fang Li also thought that Kushida Kikyou was the most popular girl in the school.
But now, it seemed that Kushida Kikyou had a mysterious side to her.
"What made her look at me like that?" Fang Li pondered deeply.
During this time, the boys' heated discussion continued in the chat group.
Ike Kanji remained convinced of his own charm, stating "nonsense! Obviously Kushida-chan is interested in me!"
However, Miyamoto interjected with a reality check, "with Kushida's popularity, Ike or Yamauchi are still too far behind." Even Ijuuin chimed in, "yeah, I think you guys should give up."
Hondou's comment drove the point home, "the level of Kushida is not what you can match."
The boys from the class poured cold water on Ike and Yamauchi's imagination. Even Ayanokouji Kiyotaka joined in with a question, "Isn't Kushida interested in Nanaya?"
This statement was like a stone dropped in water, creating ripples throughout the chat group. "What?!" exclaimed Kikuchi, while Sotomura questioned "Kushida and Nanaya...!?"
Okitani responded with disbelief, "Deception! How could Kushida be interested in that lonely Nanaya!" while Minami simply stated "I don't believe it!"
The entire boys group chat suddenly broke out in chaos, with many of the original messages being drowned out.
Amidst the chaos, Ike and Yamauchi's raging speeches stood out. "Hey! Nanaya! You aren't allowed to make a move on Kushida-chan. Absolutely not allowed!" warned Ike, while Yamauchi threatened "if you make a move, I'll spread rumors that you actually like men. I mean it!"
Speeches like these were constantly appearing in the chat group, causing confusion and amusement.
Fang Li observed the chaos with a smile, shook his head, and turned off his phone. With a faint curve at the corner of his mouth, he thought "this is not so bad Ah…" and closed his eyes, slowly drifting off to sleep.

The Next Day
After his morning practice, Fang Li returned to his room and took a cold shower before grabbing his bag and heading to class. Despite the lively chat group discussions from the previous night, he anticipated merciless interrogation upon entering the classroom.
However, upon arrival, he discovered the class was preoccupied with a different matter.
"Hey, have you confirmed your points?"
"I did, but I haven't received them yet."
"Wasn't it supposed to be given out on the first day of the month?"
"Yeah, Why haven't the points come yet?"
Confused chatter filled the room as boys and girls alike engaged in discussions about the points system. Even Hirata Yousuke, Karuizawa Kei, Kushida Kikyou, Ike Kanji, and Yamauchi Haruki confirmed their points with their close friends.
It appeared that none of them had received their new points yet, causing confusion and concern among the students.
As Fang Li sat in his seat, Horikita Suzune, who was sitting next to him, immediately began to speak.
"You didn't receive the points, right?" she asked, after confirming on her phone.
Fang Li turned to see that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, who was on the other side of Horikita Suzune, also shook his head in confirmation, indicating that he had not received the points either.
"I haven't received them either," Fang Li replied confidently.
He had already checked the status of his points during his morning practice, and the number had remained unchanged.
"It seems like change is coming..." murmured Horikita Suzune and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka simultaneously.
Everyone in the class was in a state of confusion, feeling puzzled and even anxious about the matter at hand. In particular, those who had been careless in spending their points, such as Ike Kanji, Yamauchi Haruki, and even Karuizawa Kei, who had spent a lot of points, appeared to be in a state of turmoil. It was evident that they were in urgent need of points and were already in a full-blown crisis.
The noise in the entire classroom grew louder and louder, until Hirata Yousuke could no longer stand it. He stood up and addressed the class, saying, "Please don't worry, everyone. I will go to the staff office and confirm with Chabashira-sensei."
Hirata's words were acknowledged by everyone in the class, Only at this time …
"No, Hirata, I have come."
With such a calm voice as always, Chabashira Sae pushed the door of the classroom and walked in from outside the door.
Under her arm, there were even a few sheets of paper rolled into a poster tube. The class was surprised to see her, and everyone began to murmur and whisper.
Despite her usual cold demeanor, Chabashira Sae seemed different today. The air around her seemed colder, and the students could sense that something was off. She stepped onto the podium and addressed the class, saying, "I know that you have a lot of questions. One of the biggest questions is why the points for this month have not been allocated to you."
She continued in her usual indifferent tone, "I can answer your questions. You don't need to think too much. There is no mistake on the school's part. Everything is as it should be."
This statement left the students in a state of confusion. Fang Li, Horikita Suzune, and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka remained silent and watched the situation unfold. Hirata Yousuke asked on behalf of the entire class, "Teacher, to be honest, I don't really understand what you mean. If this is not the school's mistake, then why have the points for this month not been received? Isn't it true that 100,000 points are allocated every month?"
Chabashira Sae smiled in response, "When did I say that 100,000 points would be allocated to everyone every month?"
This statement shocked everyone, but those with good memories remembered that Chabashira Sae had only said that the school would automatically allocate the required points to all students on the first day of each month. "I only said that the school would automatically allocate the required points to all students on the first day of each month."
Everyone in the classroom was shocked to realize that Chabashira Sae never said anything about 100,000 points every month. "The number of points you have this month is '0'," Chabashira Sae declared emotionlessly.
The students in the class had finally reached their breaking point.
"Why are our points zero?" one asked.
"Does this mean we won't receive any points this month?" another added.
"I can't accept this!" a third protested.
The students continued to voice their frustrations, but Chabashira Sae interrupted them with a cold, hard truth.
"Whose fault is it that your points are zero this month?" she asked, her voice unyielding.
"If this continues, you won't receive any points next month either, even if you're in the second or third year, or even after graduation."
Her words were a stark warning, and the students were left stunned.
"The points will be zero next time?" one student repeated in disbelief.
"What is going on here?" another was left stunned.
The students were no longer angry, but rather defeated.
Even Horikita Suzune and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka furrowed their brows. Although they had been concerned from the start and had not squandered their points, they still could not believe how they could only use 100,000 points to live for the next three years.
Fang Li, however, had a sudden realization. "So the school provides free services for situations like this?" he exclaimed.
Those free services exist for this very situation. Although the school provided 100,000 points, they weren't enough because of situations like this, and students would inevitably need to rely on the free services. This means that students need free stuff, just as Fang Li had previously guessed.
Even if there are 100,000 points, there will still come a time when free products are needed. This school is not paradise at all. At the very least, for those in this class, what will come next will be hell.
I had accident today so I have more free time, so ended up translating this chapter too. on that note give me some power stones.
