Chapter 144: That's Hard to Believe!
Students who had never wagered against Yuto thought Nagumo Miyabi was absolutely ridiculous.
He had already suffered one defeat against this first-year student at the basketball court. Now he had lost a second time and even been kicked out of the student council!
Those who had actually wagered against Yuto had a different opinion.
Nagumo's loss was completely understandable.
After all, Shimizu Yuto was a demon-one who simply could not be defeated.
With the announcement published, Nagumo's reputation and authority suffered an enormous blow, practically collapsing overnight.
That immediately stirred the ambitions of second-year students who had never accepted his rule. They began considering challenging Nagumo's Class A again.
Previously, Nagumo had been student council vice president and the likely successor to the presidency.
Afraid that he might abuse the student council's authority against them, many students had reluctantly abandoned the idea of competing with him.
But Nagumo was no longer part of the student council!
He could no longer use its authority to suppress them.
So why should they continue tolerating him?
Almost immediately, hidden currents began surging throughout the entire second year.
Nagumo's control over the grade was starting to crumble.
...
Inside his dorm room, Ryuen looked at the noticeboard announcement Ishizaki had forwarded to him and showed a mocking smile.
"Nagumo Miyabi got defeated by Shimizu Yuto too."
Although Ryuen and Nagumo had cooperated, their relationship had never been particularly good.
Furthermore, Ryuen had already obtained permission to take the midterm.
He no longer needed Nagumo.
Therefore, seeing Nagumo suffer did not make Ryuen sympathetic in the slightest.
Instead, he found it extremely satisfying and even wanted to mock him.
After all, Nagumo had previously ridiculed Ryuen because his subordinates failed their task and allowed Yuto to turn the entire scheme against them.
Now Nagumo had suffered the exact same fate because Shiraki failed to perform properly.
They had both lost to Shimizu Yuto.
Neither had any right to laugh at the other.
"Nagumo probably got caught because of the forged-paper scheme."
"Good thing I found an excuse to avoid handling it myself. Otherwise..."
Ryuen clicked his tongue.
Otherwise, given that he was already suspended, the school probably would have expelled him immediately.
Continuing to cause trouble while suspended would make it appear that he had learned nothing from his punishment.
After thinking about it for a while, Ryuen suddenly realized something.
His expression changed slightly as he fell into thought.
A moment later, he sent Ishizaki a message through Line.
