Chương 19: Chapter 19 Countdown to the next month

During this period of time, everything returned to normal. Fang Li's confrontation with the student President in the gym and his ability to keep up with him had garnered some attention among the senior students, but as expected, only the Track and Field Club showed any real interest. Fang Li rejected all their invitations without any politeness, and gradually the discussion about him died down. After a week or so, Fang Li, who had never been a hot topic before, was naturally ignored by everyone and no longer received any attention.

It became clear that although Fang Li was fast on his feet, he was a lonely guy. In this period of time, he didn't strike up a good relationship with anyone in the class. Ayanokoji Kiyotaka had spoken to him at the beginning, but was soon dragged away by some equally unpopular male students to join their group. Horikita Suzune had no plans to make a deep friendship with Fang Li and kept to herself, either reading books or going back to the dormitory. Kushida Kikyou seemed to really want to become friends with Fang Li, but was always brushed aside by his chilly attitude.

Fang Li had a predictable routine: during class, he would attend class, wander around the campus during breaks, and head to the library after school to search for the hottest detective fictions. He didn't talk to anyone and kept to himself, which made him a lonely person in the eyes of his classmates.

Meanwhile, Class 1-D students became familiar with each other and gradually formed fixed groups. Ayanokouji Kiyotaka was now in a group of boys who were not welcomed by girls in the class and was seen as a gloomy and non-talking man. He tried to make friends, but his kuudere personality made it difficult.

Of course, there were also popular boys in Class 1-D.

One of them was Hirata Yousuke, who not only had a handsome appearance and elegant manners, but was also a member of the Soccer Club. He was loved by many girls and was even ranked second in the list of most handsome boys in the first grade, with the first place being in Class A.

In other words, Hirata Yousuke was the most handsome and popular boy in Class 1-D, and he already had a girlfriend in school.

This girlfriend was also a student in Class 1-D. In the girls' group, she had a charismatic personality and a gyaru-style appearance, and her name was Karuizawa Kei.

If Hirata Yousuke was the center of the boys' group, then Karuizawa Kei was the center of the girls' group.

When these two started dating each other in class, it caused a lot of discussion among the students, and even in other classes, it caused a storm.

As for Kushida Kikyou, this adolescent girl was very popular regardless of any group. She had made many friends in different classes, even in senior classes, and they all admired her.

In this situation, the atmosphere in Class 1-D became more and more relaxed and lively.

Thanks to the teachers' leniency and the generous allocation of points, Class 1-D students gradually began to indulge in entertainment. Talking during class, playing on their phones, and even sleeping became more and more common. Late arrivals and absences began to appear. Every day, they spent their points willingly on food, drinks, and self-entertainment. It could be said that they were enjoying themselves to the fullest.

It was rumored that the boys and girls had created a chat group, and they chatted during class.

One could only imagine how few students in Class 1-D were actually paying attention during class.

Only a few students, including Horikita Suzune, Hirata Yousuke, and Kushida Kikyou, listened carefully to lectures, while others made fun of them.

By the way, Fang Li was not invited to the boys' chat group, and Horikita Suzune was not invited to the girls' chat group. On the other hand, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was pulled in by several unpopular friends.

Class 1-D's life in school continued in such a relaxed and lively atmosphere.

It didn't take long before the first month of school was over.

The students in the class were eagerly anticipating the next month.

"My points have been completely spent," one student remarked.

"Me too," another student chimed in.

"Obviously there are hundreds of thousands of people. If the results are taken seriously, they will be spent all at once," a third student added.

"Yeah, it hurt me to eat a free meal in the cafeteria these days," a fourth student complained.

"But it's super hard to eat," a fifth student countered.

"So, hurry up next month," another student urged.

The students of Class 1-D echoed similar sentiments in the classroom.

It was apparent that one month's worth of spending had depleted the students' points.

"I can't understand it," Horikita Suzune said with a hint of disdain, her nose buried in a book.

"What about you then?" Fang Li, who was reading detective fiction, asked her. "How much do you have left?"

Horikita Suzune took out her phone and showed Fang Li the display of her remaining points: "88560."

Fang Li was surprised. Although the average high school student's pocket money was in the thousands, daily necessities in this school were purchased with points, so it was impressive that Horikita Suzune still had so many left.

"How much do you have left?" she asked him.

Fang Li simply showed her his display interface, which read "97350."

"It really makes people wonder how you lived this month," Horikita Suzune remarked, peering over at the display.

Fang Li closed his phone.

The next moment...

"All right, everyone back to your seats," announced Chabashira Sae as she entered the classroom, holding a stack of papers. She spoke over the noise of the still bustling students after the bell.

"Settle down for a moment, today I need your full attention in class."

With that single statement, the students in the class felt a slight disappointment.
