Capítulo 20: Chapter 20: Choice To Make / Class C’s Kakeru Ryuuen
Finding himself thrown into such a class, knowing how to cut his losses short and letting his profits run should also have been one of the school's assessment criteria.
Ying Ye Zhenshi seemed to have figured out how the school was run.
At the same time, he paid close attention to the students in his class.
All they did was eat, drink, play with their mobile phones, sleep in class, talk loudly, and the list went on.
They did not respect the rules at all, and openly treated the classroom as their homes, or literally treated themselves as the school's grandfathers. [T/N: In China, Grandfathers are respected.]
'If I don't do anything to stop this, the class points will be deducted. And by the next month, we probably won't even have a dime to our names.'
If Ying Ye Zhenshi was on the school administrative board, no one here would receive any points.
This was not a guess on his part, but a fact.
And without a source of points, even if Ying Ye Zhenshi saved his current points, 100,000 points would only last for a few months.
In addition to the class points, the only other option, which was also a long-term plan to acquire points, was to join the student council.
There he would receive 100,000 a month, which would be enough for his monthly expenses, but the competition and infighting associated with being a part of the council would probably be very intense and troublesome.
While thinking about the future, he thought over his options.
'Should I announce what I have found out? Then I can have my classmates here study hard and slowly make some progress towards correcting our behaviour one day at a time… Or should I just think of some other ways?'
For three consecutive days, Ying Ye Zhenshi essentially only reflected on the circumstances he found himself in.
Of course, because he spent much of his time thinking, he had successfully alienated himself from the rest of the class.
It was the complete opposite of what he had first planned to do when enrolling at the school.
Now, except occasionally, when the determined and cute girl and his 'kind' classmate Hirata came to talk to him, no one paid attention to him, and he inevitably became one of the loners in the class.
Besides reflecting on his options, and in addition the the information he had accrued on the first day of school about the points system, he also collected some important information over the next few days.
The most valuable thing he had learned was that not everyone in the school would be offered the 100% employment rate in whichever further study course their graduating counterparts chose to pursue, while also having relevant tuition fees and living expenses waived.
This was only the case for class A.
The so-called 100% employment rate actually ignored those who didn't deserve it.
For the students of the other classes, an interview for the university would still need to be done, and entrance exams would need to be taken.
Benefitting from this perk of the school still required one to have the ability to perform.
It was almost as he thought- so long as the inappropriate and undeserved people were screened out, the rest would basically make up the quota for the 100% employment rate perk.
After getting to know the inside story of this school, Ying Ye Zhenshi gave up announcing his findings to the class and became disillusioned with the need to be sociable.
In the past few days, he had also come to realise that as far as the reaction of the students in his class was concerned, even if he announced his findings, there would be no net benefits and promising end results.
In fact, he guessed that they would behave as well as they could for a few days, and then they'd revert back to their 'it is what it is' mindset, with some people even holding a grudge against him.
By making his findings known to the class, the dissatisfaction about the rules would fall upon him, making Ying Ye Zhenshi the one to 'disrupt the harmony of the class'.
And then he'd find himself in some hot waters.
Unless, like Ryuuen Kakeru from class C, who used violence to solve the issue regarding the power and authority in his class and to rule over them, he also used such domineering tactics against his classmates, there was no hope of managing such a difficult bunch of children, and there would always be that one person dragging the class down.
As for using violence against the class like Ryuuen, he didn't even think about it.
As far as this class was concerned, Ying Ye Zhenshi felt that he would probably be expelled for his blatant display of force.
And the first person who would choose to oppose him would be that 'friend' of his in his contacts, Hirata-kun.
'Humans, we should just revert to monké.'
Class C—
Although not completely obedient, everyone in the class now mostly deferred to Ryuuen Kakeru's words.
Even the tall black guy in their class was the same.
He had been troubled by Ryuuen to the point that he eventually recognised his ability and chose to be subordinate to him.
"What? I don't have time for you, class D kid."
Ryuuen Kakeru gave off a special vibe that only ever radiated from cliché bad guys.
And Ying Ye Zhenshi sat calmly behind a desk in their class, looking head-on at the infamous delinquent.
"First of all, congratulations to you for becoming the leader of Class C. Anyway, the purpose of my visit to your class today is to sell you some information and to make a deal with Class C, and you, Ryuuen Kakeru."
Ying Ye Zhenshi had already come to a decision on how to best secure his own interests.
Since his classmates were unreliable, he would just have to earn points himself.
After all, he already knew that private points could buy 'everything' in this school.
"This can be discussed."
Although his expression still appeared irate, Ryuuen Kakeru was not as frenzied as earlier.
"Before the transaction, I'll tell you some information as a taster. Let me sort through it all in my head. What should I tell you first? You should know what this school advertised about itself in regards to the 100% employment rate, right?"
Ying Ye Zhenshi thought about what to divulge and then paused for a moment before speaking.
"Which idiot that enrolled here wouldn't know that? Are you talking a bunch of nonsense now?"
Ryuuen Kakeru responded.
"That's good. Then, I'll make a long story short. To put it simply, only students who graduate from class A in each year group are eligible for the 100% employment rate perk. There is no such perk for graduating as a B, C, or D class student."
Ying Ye Zhenshi spoke frankly.
"I always knew something was up with this school since a while ago."
Ryuuen forcefully replied, but his face had turned a little sour.
He certainly had known something was up with the school from the first day, otherwise, he wouldn't have taken charge of the class so openly.
In fact, some of the credit could be attributed to his homeroom teacher for recognising the oddities of the school.
"But what you don't know is that each of our classes is being evaluated. The A, B, C and D classes are all level right now, but it will be different from next month onwards. All this is based on our performance this month. And as long as our evaluation is better than that of the other classes, we may have a chance of becoming Class A. That's what I know."
Ying Ye Zhenshi said.
One wouldn't know just how many teachers and third-year senpais he had harassed in order to find out all this information.
He only mentioned the inter-class competition side of things, but he didn't mention the fact that his class D was destined to be the worst of the lot.
However, as long as the other classes carried out an investigation, this would be made clear.
Class D's imprudence could not be hidden at all.
