'Baseness is the pass of the base, nobility is the epitaph of the noble!'
Let them say whatever they want about me; as long as I achieve my goal, I don't care what they say.
Of course, if they gather enough points for Class D, then is the optimal solution for Class D to expel Yamauchi Haruki?
The answer is no! Yamauchi Haruki should still be kept as a threat, and once the monthly personal points are almost insufficient to support basic living, then use the points gathered by the other three classes to kick out the dead weight that is Yamauchi Haruki!
Not only would Yamauchi Haruki be transferred to another class to annoy the opponent, but I wouldn't have spent a single penny! It's simply killing two birds with one stone.
However, this plan is possible in the other three classes, but it is the most difficult to achieve in Class D.
Class D is a loose sand; calling them loose sand is even a compliment!
The most important aspect of Bai Yuze's plan is unity; they must endure the period of reduced points, and the classmates within the class must also trust each other and keep their mouths shut.
After all, an innocent man is guilty for possessing a treasure! If you hold twenty million points, others will be afraid that you will abandon everyone; they will only see that you have points but aren't distributing them, completely ignoring that these points have nothing to do with them.
They only think about being content with the present, never considering the future.
This is also the fundamental reason why Class D possesses the strongest and most unsolvable conditions, yet cannot implement them.
If it were another class, then Class B would be the most suitable class. The students in Class B are united, but they are too kind-hearted. Therefore, Class B is both the most suitable class for this plan and the class least likely to implement it.
Unless someone can take on this blame alone, taking all the fault upon themselves...
This made Bai Yuze think of that female 'Great Teacher' from Class B...
'Perhaps... it's not entirely impossible...'
'Ah? Yuze, what are you muttering about?'
Kushida Kikyo had been staring at Bai Yuze for a long time. Sometimes, Bai Yuze would inexplicably space out, as if he was plotting some earth-shattering secret!
'It's nothing, nothing. I'm just thinking about how many points this information should be sold for.'
Bai Yuze wouldn't give up any good opportunity to earn points, especially since this information was hard-earned by him! If he didn't squeeze out every last bit of its value, Bai Yuze wouldn't be able to swallow it!
'So, what price are you thinking of? Are you going to sell it to people one by one?'
Bai Yuze fantasized for a moment based on what Kushida Kikyo said, and he instantly shook his head. He wasn't a sales promoter! How could he do something so low-class?
'This is where I need your help. It's not convenient for me to show my face, so you can help me sell it as a proxy. As for the price... eight million!'
'How much? Eight million?!'
Kushida Kikyo stood up in surprise! It's just the beginning of the school year; how could any student have eight million? Let alone students! Even all the students' points in the class combined wouldn't add up to eight million!
'Don't be so surprised. This price is to be paid by all four classes together!'
Bai Yuze had already made his plans. This information would be eight million, jointly purchased by the four classes, with each class only needing to contribute two million.
Of course, Bai Yuze would certainly not just put this item on the market so vaguely. If he really did that, he would either be seen as a liar or a lunatic!
He needed a student to verify the value and accuracy of this information, and Sakayanagi Arisu was the best candidate.
Whether it was her school chairman father's backing or her status as the leader of half of Class A, she was the best teammate!
And Bai Yuze would assume the identity of a senior student to sell this information, in which he would inevitably need Horikita Manabu's help.
'Sigh! It's so hard for me to earn eight million! I really don't know how that guy Horikita Manabu managed to save twenty million!'
A siscon is truly terrifying! Coupled with the fact that he's also a student council president, he's even more formidable... cough cough cough!
Bai Yuze took out his phone and sent a message to Sakayanagi Arisu.
He definitely wouldn't start with 'Are you there?' When you're approaching someone for a serious matter, you must be attractive enough to capture their attention.
So, after much deliberation, Bai Yuze sent her a message.
[Beep beep beep! Valiant Daylily Heroine! Urgent news to report!]
[???]
Sakayanagi Arisu was in her room, contemplating how to deal with Katsuragi Kohei, when Bai Yuze's sudden message interrupted her thoughts.
When she saw the content of Bai Yuze's message, her smile became even more dangerous.
[Student Bai, are you interested in my cane? Do you need to order a cane? I think you really need one!]
[Huh? What would I do with it?]
[If you keep annoying me, do you believe I'll make you use a cane like me?]
[Cough cough cough, no more jokes. I really do need your help... or rather, it's a transaction!]
[Tell me about it]
Bai Yuze explained his idea to Sakayanagi Arisu, who, after listening, replied after a long pause.
[It's certainly feasible, but... why should I help you?]
Sakayanagi Arisu's words were perfectly valid. She and Bai Yuze were not related; at most, they interacted as classmates. Why should she help him?
[Don't you want to overthrow Katsuragi Kohei? This plan can help you achieve dominance in Class A.]
[Oh? So, you're going to join my faction?]
[Faction? I think I've said before, I only like strawberry pie, mango pie, and Italian pie.]
[Hehehe, a good plan, but do I need your help?]
Sakayanagi Arisu had her own pride. She never considered Katsuragi Kohei a true opponent; her real goal was only one!
[I just want to make this game more interesting.]
[Hahaha, Bai Jun is truly interesting. In that case, I agree. Don't disappoint me.]
[Absolutely! Absolutely!]
The other party went offline.
Bai Yuze rubbed his neck. Now that the work with Sakayanagi Arisu was done, he was ready to spread some rumors, specifically to attract the attention of Katsuragi Kohei, Ichinose Honami, and Ryuen Xiang. As for Class D? Hehe, let's wait until their big shot makes a move or Horikita Suzune has an epiphany!
School was about to be dismissed, and he wanted to let these rumors ferment during the holiday, making the leaders of each class feel like ants crawling on them during their break!
Sakayanagi Arisu opened the drawer in her room. Inside the drawer was an opened envelope, whose red seal and the words 'Top Secret File' indicated the importance of its contents.
Sakayanagi Arisu pulled out a photograph from the envelope. The person in the photo was wearing a black robe and holding a crystal ball, and the hood of the black robe had been pulled down by its wearer, revealing a face that was so familiar.
'Bai Yuze...'
Sakayanagi Arisu softly uttered the name. The face of the person in the photo, wearing a black robe and holding a crystal ball, was identical to Bai Yuze's!
