"The so-called 'most important thing' is actually a cell phone," Fang Li thought as he held the device in his hand. He examined the student ID terminal on the screen, which appeared to know its purpose.
Realizing that external connections were prohibited at this school, Fang Li understood that the cell phone was likely the only approved communication tool. "Figures," he muttered.
Chabashira Sae then pulled out her own cell phone and proceeded to explain to the class, "This cell phone serves as your student ID terminal, allowing you to communicate, send emails, and even shop online within the school's network. However, any attempts to connect to the outside world will be blocked. Additionally, the school will use this device to send necessary notices and announcements, and it's also the sole means of payment for all facilities within the school."
She went on, "Think of it as a credit card, except instead of money, it's a school-issued point system. These points can be used for all purchases made within the school grounds. For all intents and purposes, the points are the equivalent of cash."
As soon as Chabashira Sae finished speaking, a girl in the class raised her hand to ask a question.
"How do we get points? Can we exchange cash for it?" The girl's question echoed in the minds of all the students in the classroom. Chabashira Sae's answer took everyone by surprise.
"Points cannot be obtained through cash exchange. The school will automatically allocate the required points to all students on the first day of each month. For instance, each of you should have received 100,000 points."
Chabashira Sae delivered the information with a casual air. "By the way, the value of the points is equivalent to the yen. In other words, one point is worth one yen."
The classroom fell silent as the students digested this information. Then, one by one, they reacted with amazement and excitement.
"One point is equivalent to one yen?!" exclaimed a student. "Does that mean the school is giving us '100,000 living expenses every month'?"
The students started buzzing with excitement, and even Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Horikita Suzune, who had not shown interest earlier, looked at their cell phones in amazement.
"This is really…" They both muttered in silence.
Fang Li also looked at his cell phone, thinking, "So this School covers not only tuition fees and lodging fees but also living expenses?"
It was too much for a high school student to have, at least in Fang Li's experience. "100 yen as a change can make people envy, let alone '1000'," He thought. But Chabashira Sae had made it clear that the school would issue this fee every month.
"How can this not be surprising?" Fang Li wondered.
Chabashira Sae explained further, "Don't be surprised. This school is a place where students are judged by their strength. Since you were able to enter the school, it means you have the corresponding value and potential. The school will not skimp on your necessities. This is what you deserve, just like a scholarship. You can use it as you wish. If you don't need it, you can even transfer points to others."
After the instructions, Chabashira Sae gave some less significant information, such as the upcoming entrance ceremony and club activities. If interested, students could follow the posted notices to attend club recruitment events.
Chabashira Sae left the classroom without any sign of reluctance, leaving the other students stunned and talking excitedly among themselves.
"I didn't expect the treatment here to be so good!" one student exclaimed.
"100,000 yen a month!" another chimed in.
Such arguments could be heard from every corner, and it was easy to imagine how excited the students were. But there was nothing wrong with that - the treatment at this school was indeed exceptional. Despite the mandatory accommodation, prohibition on leaving school, and restrictions on contact with the outside world, the school provided tuition, lodging fees, living expenses, and even daily entertainment consumption and related facilities. It was difficult to be unsatisfied with such benefits.
Moreover, this high school had superior conditions that other schools lacked. With an enrollment and employment rate of nearly 100%, the school provided thorough instruction and was committed to supporting students in achieving their future dreams. Unlike other schools that focused on a limited number of professional fields, this school allowed students to specialize in any field of their choice.
Whether someone wanted to become a singer, professional athlete, or top government official, this school had made it possible for its graduates to achieve their goals. The school had publicized this point extensively, and many of its graduates were famous for having attended this institution. The employment rate had reached an impressive 99.9%.
It was no wonder that students felt excited about attending this school, which was so full of charm. As long as they could graduate successfully, their future paths would be paved. Who could be dissatisfied with such an opportunity?
Despite the excitement, Fang Li, Horikita Suzune, and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka sat calmly and stared at their cell phones while the other students talked. Fang Li couldn't help but wonder about the significance of the points displayed on his cell phone interface: "100,000". He thought to himself, "As long as it's at this school, there's nothing that can't be bought with points, right?"
As the other students were caught up in the thrill of their new school life, Fang Li quietly left the classroom without being noticed. Ayanokouji Kiyotaka and Horikita Suzune also remained absorbed in their own thoughts, unaware of Fang Li's departure.
