Yuuichi's daily life in COTE

Chapter 1.7 Vol 1 completed

- What am I going to do without more points?

- I used the rest of my points yesterday.

After Chabashira-sensei left the classroom, the whole class was in an uproar.

Yukimura: More than the points, this is a problem with the class. Why am I placed in Class D!?

- Wait, does that mean we won't be able to go to the university we want to? Then, why did I come to this school in the first place? I wonder if Sae-chan-sensei hates me. None of the students can hide their confusion.

Hirata: I understand that everyone is panicking right now, but calm down.

Hirata took control of the class, trying to ease the sense of imminent crisis.

Yukimura: How can we stay calm in this situation? Aren't you frustrated that we are the class of leftovers?!!

Yuuichi: Yukimura-kun, I understand your anger, but instead of complaining, why don't we try to find a way out of this situation together?

Yukimura: Get out of this situation? I don't even agree with this class hierarchy in the first place!

Yuuichi: Don't speak as if it's not your fault too, Yukimura. As far as I know, you haven't made any progress on the system, so it's as much your fault as all of ours.

Yukimura: What!? You...!

Yukimura approached and grabbed Yuuichi by the collar.

Yuuichi: Do you really think that hitting me will solve anything? All you'll do is make our situation worse. In case you didn't notice, Yukimura, this classroom has cameras, just like almost everything else in this school.

Yukimura let go of my collar and sat back down, looking at me with hatred.

I returned to my seat and noted all the information that Chabashira-sensei brought.

Yuuichi: Yosuke, we'll have to take quick action regarding the midterm exams.

Hirata: I was thinking about that too. I think the best thing would be to form study groups, but now I need to calm the class.

I just nodded in agreement.

Hirata: Guys, once classes start, I ask everyone to pay proper attention. Especially you, Sudou-kun.

Hirata attracted the attention of the noisy classroom as he stood up at the podium.

Sudo: Tch, what's the matter?

Hirata: This month, we didn't get many points, but at least it's enough to live comfortably for 1 month. We can't keep going like this and graduate with so few points in Class D, right?

- Definitely not!

A girl shouted in response to Hirata's words.

Hirata: Of course not. Therefore, we have no choice but to try to earn some points next month. That's why everyone in the class has to work together to solve our problem. We must avoid being late and talking during class. Naturally, using cell phones during classes is also prohibited.

Sudo: I don't get it, even if we work hard during class, it's not like our points will increase.

Feeling dissatisfied, Sudou snorted and crossed his arms, expressing his frustration. In response to Sudou's feelings, Kushida spoke up.

Kushida: Doesn't the school say that not being late and not talking during class should be an obvious mindset?

Hirata: Yes, I also agree with Kushida-san, it's only natural.
