COTE: A Man On A Mission II Love is War?

Kushida has a big problem. This is a surprising conclusion.
　　
But, Chabashira knew it very well. What Hikigaya Hachiman said is correct.
　　
She has checked the files of all students in Class D. As a class teacher, she is also responsible for the task of evaluating students in stages.
　
So, she can view their naughty actions.
　　
Then guide them to develop in a good direction. The file of Kushida Kikyo obtained was very problematic.
　　
The interviewer's statement is that her academic and athletic abilities can reach B level.

Although Kushida is slightly lacking in intelligence and strategy, she has a strong affinity field, and her ability to coordinate and organize can be rated as A.

This type of person who is good at interpersonal communication is rarely encountered.
　　
So they originally wanted to assign her to Class B.
　　
But, because of her past experience, they had to give up this move and place her in Class D.
　
The reason was that the principal of the junior high school she attended reported that Kushida Kikyo's class, from students to teachers, went on strike and collapsed, and she was the one who caused this phenomenon.
　　
In other words, although Kushida Kikyo’s basic hardware has reached the level of a Class B student.
　
However, it is a bomb that can explode at any time.

Therefore, this kind of bomb must not be placed in Class B. Otherwise, if one person destroys the whole class, all the interviewers will be blamed.
　　　
So, Kushida was thrown to Class D. And this is why Class D is regarded as trash.
　　
Except for students who are incompetent in various aspects, the others are to take in all kinds of strange problem children.
　　
In order to adapt to the class competition for those outstanding students in upper classes.
　　
Adapting to the future society may also encounter some difficult people to deal with.

It's just that, this is the information that Chabashira, obtained using the authority of the homeroom teacher.

So, she also knew that Kushida Kikyo was a bomb.
　　
But. 'Hikigaya Hachiman, how did you find out?'

'Why do you think the more outstanding Kushida is, the more dangerous she becomes?'

Therefore, in the face of Hachiman's remarks, although Chabashira-sensei maintained her adult posture, her heart was spinning several times.

And she was also analyzing Hachiman's file.
　　
Hikigaya, is a special student recommended by Hiratsuka Shizuka.

However, the school reviewed his file and felt that he could be included in the school's experiment.
　　
So this was half a back door, but he was still assigned to Class D.
　　
Because. His profile and past are also very subtle, his performance is not outstanding, and was always alone.

It is not that he has not tried hard, but has basically failed every single time.

He just looks like a lonely boy. The only advantage is that his scores in the Japanese subject are excellent.

And seemed to have deep attainments in writing. This is his advantage given by the interviewer.

But looking at him now, it seems there's something extraordinary.
　　
Very insightful. "You did give an incredible evaluation." Chabashira decided to praise him directly.

"You are right about Kushida. She is a very risky person. It's just how you came to this conclusion?" This was the main question in this whole farce.

"It's similar to reasoning," Hachiman explained, like it's just a normal topic, "Because if my conclusion is correct, the school uses class competition to allocate resources."

"And if it is a competition, how can we achieve better development?"

"Of course if we are evenly matched, people can become stronger and defeat the opponent, with continuous efforts."

"So, I initially imagined that there would be very outstanding students in the four classes, and then lead the classes to compete as a single unit." But after this, his expression seemed to have pained a little bit.
　　
"....But judging from the situation of the seniors in Class D of the second and third grades, it seems that no matter which grade they are in, Class D is always in the poorest state."

"There are natural successes and failures in class competition. If you fail once, it's okay.....” He looked at Chabashira-sensei, with his eyes a little lost.
　　
"But.... looking at the values on the small blackboard of the third grade. Class A is 2530, Class B is 1300, Class C is 300, and Class D is just 20."

"The evaluations of the four classes....it's like jumping off a cliff, with natural ravines."

"So, I threw away the idea that ABCD was evenly matched at the beginning...."

"It would be better to say that students from Class A are better from the start and can stand out more easily."

"And Class D, is just.....the worst” Hachiman said. "It's so fucking bad, that everything is on the back burner. In other words.....if a good student needs to be thrown into Class D?

Isn't that just a waste of resources? So, I think once people are assigned to Class D.... the more outstanding they look, the greater problems this student will have.”

"The possible negative effects can overwhelm all his advantages."

And this includes Hirata, Hachiman sighed inwardly.
　　
He finally met a male angel, but it turned out to be a bomb just as good as Kushida?

And Chabashira's eyes closed gently.

Is it?  So, that’s how you understand it.
　　
Sae, realised that she still underestimated the other party.

Hikigaya Hachiman's insight and analytical skills exceeded her expectations.　

"Have you played any reasoning games in the past? For example, you often played mystery games with your friends." Chabashira wanted to know how he became like this.

"No." Hachiman denied this statement, finding it ridiculous, "I couldn't find anyone to play with me, so I played several roles by myself."

"..." Chabashira. 'I somewhat understand how Hikigaya became so strong'
　　
Because he is alone. A person will feel lonely, but sometimes he will become much stronger than normal people.

"Then this is for you." She then put her left hand into the pocket of the lady's suit and took out a black card about 10X5cm.

There are two QR codes printed on the center of the card.

One of them represents the payment, and the other represents the QR code.

Chabashira started to explain, when she saw him being slightly confused, "This is an anonymous point card. You can scan the points in your student ID card into this, or scan out the points from it.

The method to obtain it, is also very simple. You can go to the electrical appliance store in the shopping street, and the price is 100 points each.”

"Using point cards can hide your real points. It's very convenient."
　　
"In other words, the school encourages students to compete in classes." But Hachiman focused on another important aspect of this statement, "....Allowing students to hide their points secretly, that is to say, tacitly allowing them to be bribed?....And using some unexplainable means?"

"Haha..." Hearing his question, Chabashira just smiled politely. 'This person knows the adult world too well'
　
In fact, she finds him a bit tricky.
　　
Because this guy's mind was spinning so fast, she had the illusion that Hachiman was not on his first day of school, but had been there for three months.
　　
"Check the points. I scanned the 200,000 limit and entered it." Chabashira transferred the points without hesitation, "You can take it bit by bit into your student ID card, or you can put it away for later use."
　　
"Hai." Hachiman nodded, but he didn't scan it immediately. 'Direct inspection represents the distrust of my teacher'
　　
Chabashira-sensei has a huge amount of money, and Hachiman also wants to do a few money-making tasks to save it, so there is no need to stalemate the relationship with her now.　

Moreover, the other party obtained permission from the school to convert points into cash in advance for him.
　　
It shows that she has paid the price. Then, there will be no easy breach of contract.

Especially...when Chabashira-sensei was so anxious.　

Looking at this alone, she will not breach the contract, at least not for now.　

"Speaking of which, do you have any future goals?" She continued to ask as Hachiman put away the point cards.　

Sae felt that just by looking at Hachiman's file, she wouldn't be able to get all the information about him.

　　
"Me?" When asked this question,

Hachiman's mind suddenly flashed into the image of the silver-haired girl he saw sitting on the sofa in Keyaki Shopping Center, using a cane.

But he didn't want the feeling of being surrounded, if he could express it in words.

Then it's probably...　

"I want to be a househusband." Hachiman revealed his dreams, with his eyes shining like stars, "I don't want to work hard every day and support a family....I prefer to stay at home. In other words, I don't want to work. Why do boys go out to support the family?"
　　
"I want to be adopted!" He finished describing his goals, looking very excited.

"..." ??

 "Then work hard." Although she felt that this child had no ambition, Chabashira decided to guide this child who had gone astray from the right path a long time ago, "You will definitely gain something in this school."

"That is, there is no guarantee whether you will meet a rich woman who will support you in the future."
　　
"But you can make yourself rich first in the three years of this school.”
　　
Oh? Hachiman was a little surprised.
　　
But sensei didn't seem to stop and started talking at a rapid pace, "Go and get close to Horikita Suzune....That girl is just like you."
　
"The reward for investigating her file is still the same, 200,000."
　　
'I have already received 200,000 by spying on Kushida'
　
'But, is there another 200,000 waving its tail at me now?'

____________

Horikita Suzune. Class D, first grade.
　　
Her appearance is quite outstanding, with waist-length black hair spread over her back and shoulders, a small bow tied with a white ribbon on the right side and a long, thin braid.

The waterfall-like black hair carries a lily fragrance, probably the smell of shampoo.
　　
Sitting posture is dignified and beautiful.
　　
Long eyelashes, orange fox-like eyes full of charm, and that delicate face.
　　
However, the cold expression on the girl's face seemed to exude an aura of rejection all the time.
　　
Just like the iceberg beauty, although she can reject many weak people, it makes others more interested in her.
　　
For example, Hachiman. But to him, what matters is not her looks.
　　
But the value is represented by Horikita Suzune...200,000.
　　
When Hachiman clicked on his phone, he will find that the information on his student ID card has been updated.

　　[Name: Hikigaya Hachiman
　　Class: First Grade Class D Student
　　Number: 108510000
　　Private Points: 89,100]
　　
Compared with yesterday’s full 100,000, there is already some damage, which is a sign of consumption.
　　
It's just that Hachiman's personal points are not getting less and less as he used them, but more and more.
　　
After he returned to the dormitory, he scanned the points card with his mobile phone and found that he could withdraw 200,000 points.
　　
Chabashira-sensei didn't lie. So, he is still interested in saving money.
　　
The 200,000 yen represented by Kushida has already been obtained.
　　
In fact, her evaluation is a bit opportunistic, because if he really wants to collect Kushida's data, what he has done will definitely not be enough, and may have to pay something.
　
Because Kushida has a strong ambition to conquer others. So,  getting her information is actually very costly.
　　
Hachiman just pointed out the news that Kushida was assigned to Class D despite being so perfect was a bomb, and Chabashira-sensei could accept it.
　　
Very lucky. 'It shows that she is a kind person who is willing to pay'
　　
'What about Horikita?'  His teacher said that,

[Go and get close to Horikita Suzune. That girl is just like you. ]

Somewhat interested. 'Horikita is the same as me, how curious?

___________

"..." Horikita Suzune.
　　
Sitting at a single desk, Suzune lifted up her physics book and opened it, as if she was studying it carefully.

Her fingers are slender, her posture is dignified, and she looks very good from the side.
　　
And her textbooks are also new, but it makes people think that she is a person who takes learning very seriously.

The reason why he said this was because there were some notes in her textbook.

Something like [this part needs to be listened to in class] [this knowledge point may be the key point and needs to be memorized] and so on.

It's obvious that she only got her textbooks yesterday, meaning Horikita must have started studying or even previewing them last night.

And this is something that Hachiman definitely cannot do. Rather, he has not even opened a single book yet.
　　
Only. "What's the matter with you?" Horikita Suzune said in a cold voice.
　　
And the target is...a little angel-like person with short blond hair. Kushida Kikyo.
　　
It was Kushida who came to Horikita's desk, with a smile on her face.

As a person who lives alone all year round, Hachiman is very good at observing others secretly without being noticed by them.

Horikita Suzune was his neighbor.
　　
But, he is now resting his hands on his elbows and resting his face on the arms.
　　
It looked like Hachiman was just catching up on his sleep. But that's not the case.
　　
This action allows him to have a relatively large field of vision from the corner of his eye.

And this kind of angle, that lowers his sense of presence, Hachiman calls it... the best camera.

And now this canera's recording function is enabled.
　
"You are Horikita-san, right? I am Kushida Kikyo." Kushida said, with a hopeful look, "I invited you to join the group last night. Why did you refuse?"

So, that's it. Class group.

Indeed. When Hachiman joined yesterday, there were 25 people in the class. Both mother Hirata and Kushida are very popular live broadcasters.

Hirata is gentle to everyone and pays special attention to people like him, so he doesn't want anyone to be left alone.
　
In this way. Since they have opened a class group, he naturally hope that all students will join.
　　
It’s really touching that there are such male mothers in the class.
　　
It's just that such a perfect being like Hirata was thrown into Class D, which shows that he is also a bomb that can explode at any time.
　　
Hachiman continues to act as a camera that only records but does not speak.
　　

Collect information. It seems that Kushida invited Horikita to join the group, but she refused directly.

"Did you press the wrong button because you were studying too late yesterday?" Kushida started making her own assumptions, "Or maybe It's my fault, as it was already 11 o'clock at that time?"
　　
She is indeed a little angel, giving the other party some face.

Only "Huh? Wrong button?" But Suzune looked surprised by this statement, “I didn't press the wrong one at all." 'Is this girl joking?'

"It's better to say, Class group, this kind of thing is not necessary." In other words, she did not join on purpose.

"But everyone can share information in the group and deepen their relationship with each other." But Kushida didn't want to accept it. 'It's obviously beneficial so why's this girl rejecting me so openly?!
　　
"I'm not interested in this kind of behavior. It's better to say that it will disturb my study time." But Horikita's reaction was... as cold as ice.
　
To use another adjective, it would be... unreasonable.

Because. Even if you don't like the class group, you can join and then block it.　

Instead of saying it directly in front of the classroom where half the people had already arrived.
　　
'Have you considered the consequences of stating it this way?'

Didn’t you see the students in the class looking at you in surprise?
　　
I'm afraid that after today, Horikita Suzune will be labeled as a being, who's difficult to get along with.
　　
"Also, if you have nothing else to do, can you not stay here?" The person in question even wanted to shoo Kushida away, as if swatting an annoying fly, ‘I still want to read."
　　　
This made Kushida a little embarrassed. But the black-haired girl, on the other hand, continued to read calmly.
　　
'This look...how should I put it, completely ignorant of the world' This made Hachiman, the cameraman, start to think.
　　
Thinking about why he chose the seat next to Horikita Suzune. In fact, since yesterday, there has been no one sitting near her.

She exuded this aura of coldness and rejection, so everyone seemed to be avoiding her intentionally.
　　
And it turns out that Horikita Suzune is indeed difficult to get along with.
　　
Thinking about it now, Hachiman noticed that she had the aura of coming alone.
　　
'Which means she has no friends either?' There is no intention to cater to others.
　　
'Like a lone wolf who doesn't get along with the pack' Then he would still choose to be her neighbor. 'Is it the mutual attraction of lonely souls?'
　　
But Hachiman just closed his eyes, because if Horikita Suzune is a lone wolf, what he wanted to be was a...bear.

'A lonely soul doesn't need a place of fetters'

__________

The high school courses at ANHS seem to be more difficult than those outside.
　　
The version of the textbook is the latest version, and the teaching progress is very fast.
　　
It's just that their attitude seems a bit careless. It seems that as long as the time for getting out of class is over, no matter what content is taught, the class will not be delayed.
　　
Immediately announce the end of the class. Also, there will be no questions either. 　

They don't even know how to get off the stage, so they definitely won't care about some students reading comics or playing with their mobile phones in class.
　　
What probably excites the students the most is that there are no homework assignments after the period ends.
　　
"Isn't this great? I hate teachers who drag classes!"
　　
"Yes, yes, math class class has been replaced by a physical education!"
　　
"By the way, there seems to be a swimming class. I can still go to school, and play in the water, isn't it great?!"

The students commented on this. A little noisy.
　　
Although it was only the second day of enrollment, these people quickly formed their own clique.
　　
Start hugging. The most eye-catching thing is the boys in the front row.
　　
Someone bought a notebook last night and brought it to the classroom, where he was quickly making voting forms and so on.
　　
"By the way, what are you doing? Hey, there are several names of girls in the class." A student came around. The name is Ike Kanji
　　
"We are voting!" Haruki Yamauchi said in his self-introduction that he was very good at table tennis and almost became a prefectural athlete.

"It's the boy's one. I found Hirata's cell phone, and saw the girls were arranging the list of handsome boys in school. So, I thought we would also make a list of beautiful girls!"

That's it.

"So us boys must be interested in girl's boobs, buttocks and so on!"
　　
"So I think you can't just look at her face, you should also have a great figure to be on the list!"

"What do you think about this judging criteria, Ayanokoji?" Yamauchi suddenly said to a handsome boy who seemed to have a low sense of presence.

Because now they occupy Ayanokoji's desk.
　　
"Eh? I think it's almost the same." Ayanokoji replied in a pathetic tine, perhaps not expecting to be asked.
　　
"Eh..."
　
"Actually, I think Horikita-san is very beautiful." And the tall boy with red short hair joined the conversation.

This is Ken Sudo that Hachiman saw yesterday.

Even though it was a child's trick, he still stood up and introduced himself, and now he saw the boys chatting together, so he joined in.

'Is this... worrying about being excluded and joining a group in advance?'

'This ecosystem is quite interesting' Hachiman commented in his mind.
　　
"Horikita-san is very good-looking."
　　
"But I don't think her boobs are good enough. What about Hasebe, her boobs are very big, right?!" Yamauchi continued.
　　
The Hasebe mentioned here is a girl named Hasebe Haruka in the class.

She has a wide forehead, long blue hair, and a tear mole under her right eye. A very beautiful girl.
　　
And in great shape. But...it's really bad.
　　
Although adolescence is a period when people are interested in the opposite sex.
　　
'But, is this kind of thing allowed to be said in such a public place?'
　　
Didn’t you see that the girls in the class were looking at you like staring at  trash?
　
And the reason why they talk about Horikita and Hasebe is actually because they went to the toilet together and were not in the classroom at the moment.

'So, although I think Horikita is an unreasonable person, my classmates don't seem to have much emotional intelligence either'
　　
Hachiman has given up hope of receiving school living expenses on a class-by-class basis.
　　
Because, even if the information he has is made public, the students in this shitty class will definitely not unite or work hard based on their garbage personalities.
