The Genius of White

Chapter-2 Part-4

I returned to my room and laid down on my bed. It's the most exhausted I feel after leaving the white room. First, the study group broke up then I saw Kushida's dark side. She tried to threaten me with fake evidence but I able to get the upper hand on her by recording her conversation with me on my phone. And last I fought with Horikita's brother, Horikita Manabu, the Student Council President.

"It's been a long day for me. I wonder going to happen next," I thought.

It's been three days since I confronted Horikita about her flawed thinking and yet she didn't take any action. I glanced at her. She was taking notes and Sudou was sleeping in the class as usual.

It looks like she still not fully convinced yet. She may be thinking that I'm just speculating. But the school already gave us various hints about how they evaluate students. If this school only value academics then students like Sodou would never be admitted into the school in the first place.

Then there are students like Hirata and Kushida who are both academically and physically good. They both have good communication skills. Then why are they placed in Class D. I didn't have an explanation for this before. But after seen Kushida's real face. I think it's because the school know about her personality. It's the same with Hirata although I don't know what kind of secrets he had, it doesn't matter to me.

It's safe to say that the school know everything about the students. They probably know Horikita flawed personality and that's why she was sorted out in Class D.

"Then what about me. Did they know everything related to me" I thought. There no way that's possible. I didn't go to any middle school, I don't have any government records. I don't have any history.

During the lunch break, Horikita finally makes up her mind and talk to Kusihida. She agreed to help Horikita once again. With Kusihida, we able to persuade Ike and Yamauchi to join the study group once again. But Sudou denied it.

"I'm busy with my club and I don't want to skip my basketball practice just to study, especially her study group," Sudou said angrily while pointing at Horikita.

"But if you failed the test, you won't able to play basketball and if you worried about missing your basketball practice, I already had a plan for it," Horikita said calmly. After hearing her plan Soudou reluctantly agreed to join the study group.

Since we only have a little over the week before the midterm exam, Horikita planned to hold the short study session during the breaks between classes. This way Sudou didn't have to skip his club activities.

Things are going smoothly but then we hit an unexpected blunder. Apparently, the test's topic has changed last week and Sensei said that she forget to inform us. When the students complain about it, she didn't show any guilt towards it.

"I'm sure you'll able to pass the exam one way or other," This what Chiyabashira-sensei said before she shoos us from the staff room.

"Is there are other ways to pass the test," I thought as we leave the staff room. I looked at Horikita. She seems to be calm but I could sense her anxiety. It's the first time she involved in something like this. If the class fail now it'll be a huge blow to her confidence.

At the end of the school Hirata hold up a meeting to discuss the next course of action for class D which includes me, Horikita, Kushida and Hirata.
