The next morning, I strolled into the classroom and noticed a crowd of people gathered in front of the board. I guess the highest point owners were displayed once again. There was some pretty intense chatter coming from within the circle. It seemed that there were quite a few surprising developments.
As I nudged myself in and took at the leaderboard, there were some interesting things developing in the other classes. However, our class' results and placements were pretty predictable to me. Students who usually didn't even show up to class were standing near the board, frantically trying to understand what was going on.
The air conditioner was blasting cold air into the classroom, gently circulating air around. However, even with all its efforts, the classroom was still eerily warm. Not that it really mattered to me at all.
This was all pretty boring.
It was the second day of the special exam.

Nothing was extraordinarily surprising—aside from the class 2-F standing. From what I could tell, it looked like Tachibana decided to bail out her friend with 4,000 points—well, that saved me the hassle of bailing her out.
Also, since I wasn't on the leaderboard, I shouldn't be receiving any suspicion.
There was quite a bit of outcry in the class, especially in relation to the number of points that Yamada had. It was to be expected that the class would not take lightly the fact that Yamada suddenly managed to get enough points to pass the exam. Whatever the case, as long as they couldn't track it back to me, it'd be fine.
"Where did you guys get all your points?!"
"There was some anonymous person who gave them to us," Yamada answered.
"That's not fair!"
"Well, that's too bad. You guys were planning on throwing me under the bus anyways!"
He didn't mention the heavy fees involved.
It was also going to be significantly more difficult to acquire loans from the upper classes. As Furukawa predicted, Class B was going to be bidding for points, and they have much stronger purchasing power compared to students of Class E. I was going to use that to my advantage, however. There was a good chance that many of the students from Class E are not going to survive this exam.
I was somewhat curious as to what Class F was doing. Based on their points amounts, I assumed there was some sort of dictatorship, or maybe all the students trusted Fukuda with their points. He suddenly managed to gain around 56,000 more points. My assumption is that he chose option two and took all the points for himself. Something seemed suspicious about that class.
Kanako seemed to be doing well, just under Fukuda. There was probably something going on between the two of them, likely tracing back to her father. Her father was not exactly the type of person who would play fair, so it'd be fully expected that he may have set some stuff up in this school prior to her enrollment. It'd probably come a time when I'd have to deal with that, but for now, it didn't seem a problem to me.
I'll observe the results after the special exam concludes.
I opened my bank account and contemplated what I'd do today.

There were free meals provided by the school during this special exam, so there was no need to spend any points during this period. It was good for me as well since it allowed me to save some points which would have originally been spent on the food we're having. Also, it means I'd be able to invest the rest of my points. Aside from that, there wasn't much else for me to do, so I decided to just listen in as normal.
We'd have class as normal for the rest of the day. However, tomorrow morning will be utter chaos.
The stress levels of many students were quite high throughout the day.

MONOLOGUE OF FUJIHARU SARA
-
At first, I saw him as just a random boy.
He was dull, he was boring, he was plain, he was nothing special.
It was the first day of the second semester, he was seated next to me.
As expected, he was quiet, he was hard to talk to.
Oh well, it was nothing I hadn't experienced before.
However, for some reason, as I talked to him, I felt as if something was different.
I've met lots of boys who have pretended to be apathetic.
But, for some reason, he genuinely seemed disinterested.
The more I tried to get close to him, the more I felt distant.
At times, it almost seemed as if I was getting pulled in by him...
Time was ticking.
It was obvious that he still hadn't fallen for me.
Luckily, I've still got some plans up my sleeve.
I can sense that you're someone special, that you're hiding something, that you're not who you appear at first glance. However, I'll be the one to swallow up your pride.
No matter what I have to do... I'll be the one to defeat you.
Mizuhara Ayato. I'll make you fall in love with me
otherwise... I might...
