Osamu Dazai

"It's really cunning, so the so-called hermit, why are you doing this?"

"It's also to show you the sincerity of cooperation."

Not long after, Ayanokōji Kiyotaka's cell phone received an email with an attached picture from a third-year senior.

The test paper is indeed the previous archaeological question.

It seems that the student did not lie to him.

No, it should be because you dare not lie.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka had to confirm the part of the quiz first.

The most critical thing is whether the last three questions are the same.

The final conclusion is that the exercises are all consistent.

Ayanokōji Kiyotaka passed the test paper to Osamu Dazai and said, "Come and give the test paper to Kikyo-san, you should know when to hand it over to her, right?"

"Of course." Osamu Dazai flipped through the test paper on his phone.

Thursday's class is over, and it's time to dismiss.

Tomorrow is finally the official midterm exam.

After Chabashira-sensei walked out of the classroom after the class meeting, Kushida Kikyo started to act immediately.

Kushida Kikyo walked up to the podium with a stack of archaeological questions and glanced at Osamu Dazai.

These are the archaeological questions I got from Osamu Dazai.

"Sorry guys. Could you hear a few words from me before you go back?"

Sudou Ken also stopped because of Kushida Kikyo's words, ready to listen attentively.

Only Kushida Kikyo can do this task.

After all, her popularity is well known throughout the school.

"I think everyone should have read a lot of books so far in order to prepare for tomorrow's midterm exam. Regarding this, I have something that can help you a little bit. I will send the information now."

Kushida Kikyo distributed the question and answer sheets to the students in the front row according to the number of students.

"The...question for the exam? Could it be that Kushida-san did this?"

Of course Horikita Suzune also looked shocked.

"This is actually an archaeological question. I got it from my third-year senior last night." Kikyo Kushida said with his little hands behind his back: "I also heard that the midterm exam the year before last was almost the same as this archaeological question. So I think as long as you read it This archaeological question will definitely come in handy in tomorrow's exam."

"Whoa! Really! Kushida-chan, thank you!"

Chi Kuanzhi was so moved that he hugged the test paper tightly.

The other students also seemed unable to contain their excitement about the sudden luck.

Not long after that, the triumphant students began to set foot on their way home.

"Kushida-san, you've done a great job."

It was rare for Horikita Suzune to praise someone frankly.

"Hey, is it?"

"Because I didn't expect to be able to use archaeological questions. I am also very grateful to you for investigating whether the questions are really useful."

For Horikita Suzune who always acts alone and has no friends, this seems like an unexpected move.

"It's for friends, it's nothing."

"Besides, I also think it's right for you to announce after school. Because if you reveal the archaeological questions casually, it may reduce everyone's concentration on reading." Horikita Suzune said appreciatively.

"It's just because I got it late. If many of the same questions appear in the exam tomorrow... maybe everyone can get a good score." Kushida Kikyo was a little embarrassed.

"Well, and everyone's hard work for the past two weeks will never be wasted." Horikita Suzune also encouraged everyone rarely.

Although for Sudou Takeru and the others in the failing group, two weeks should be endlessly long.

But they should also have a little grasp of the way of concentration and habits of reading.

"Then, let's go back too." Kushida Kikyo said.

Horikita Suzune watched quietly as Kushida put the notebook and textbooks into her bag.

"Kushida-san."

"Ok?"

Kushida Kikyo stood up with a smile on her face, picked up her schoolbag, and looked at Horikita Suzune.

"I have something to confirm with you." Horikita Suzune said.

"Is there something you want to confirm with me?" Kushida Kikyo looked puzzled.

"If you will help me for the class in the future, this matter has to be confirmed."

Horikita Suzune looked straight at Kushida who was smiling brightly, and said, "You hate me, don't you?"

"...Ahaha, I really lost to you."

Kushida Kikyo slowly lowered the hand that raised the schoolbag, and then faced Horikita Suzune with an unchanged smile.

"Yeah, I hate you the most."

Kushida Kikyo then said bluntly.

She didn't hide at all, and she didn't beat around the bush.

"Would it be better to tell you the reason?" Kushida Kikyo said.

"...No, it's not necessary. I just need to understand this fact. It seems that I can get along with you without restraint." Horikita Suzune said.

Horikita Suzune answered Kushida Kikyo like this even though she was said to be disgusting in person.

……

In the morning, Mr. Chabashira walked into the classroom with a fearless smile on his face.

"Nobody was absent. Looks like the whole class is here."

Sae Chabashira picked up a piece of paper and pasted it on the blackboard.

"Let me explain the pre-examination rules first. Since Osamu Dazai is strictly a student in Class E, but because there is only one student in Class E, his average score is calculated together with our Class D..."

The rules are explained.

The teacher tidied up the test papers on the table and handed them out.

The first section is about social studies.Society can be said to be one of the easier subjects.

If you get frustrated here, to be honest, the rest of the subjects will be even more difficult.

"If no one fails this exam and the final exam in July, I will take everyone on vacation during the summer vacation." Teacher Chazhu added.

"Are you on vacation...?"

"Yes. By the way... I will let you live a dreamlike life on the island surrounded by the blue sea."

Everyone got their exam papers shortly after.

Then, everyone followed the teacher's instructions and opened the test papers at the same time.

The questions on the examination paper are exactly the same as the archaeological questions, which always makes people feel a little scary.

At least not at first glance.

As long as you memorize all of them, you can obviously get almost full marks in the test.

The second and third sections that follow are Chinese and Chemistry.

Having said that, Osamu Dazai admired another thing while solving the problem.

After re-reading the exam questions like this, you will find that the scope taught by Horikita Suzune has a very high hit rate.

From this point of view, it is known that she has accurately grasped the course content and predicted the exam questions.

The girl next to Dazai Osamu who kept answering silently was even better than he imagined.

Then, the fourth section is about mathematics.

In terms of difficulty, the questions listed on the test paper are much more difficult than the quiz.

However, these contents are exactly the same as the archaeological questions.

Maybe Sudou and the others couldn't even understand part of the question, but even so, as long as they memorized the answer, they could write it.

Then came the break time.

Ike Kanji, Yamauchi Haruki, and Kushida Kikyo, members of the reading club, gathered around Horikita Suzune.

"Sudou, looking at you, you don't seem to have much energy."

Osamu Dazai put his hand on Sudou Takeru's shoulder.

"I'm worried that I might be expelled from school. I read everything except English. I accidentally fell asleep yesterday." Sudou Takeru said anxiously.

To put it simply, this is the first time he has read English archaeological questions.

That is to say, Sudou has less than 10 minutes of rest time left to memorize.

"Sudou-san, you should memorize the questions with high scores and short answers first."

Horikita Suzune immediately left the table and came to Sudo Fitness.

"Oh, good."

Therefore, Takeru Sudo abandoned the questions with low scores, and began to memorize the high-score and easy-to-understand parts.

The 10-minute break is gone in the blink of an eye.The bell rang relentlessly.

Then, the English test began.

While other students were steadily answering, Sudou Takeru was in distress.

From time to time, he stopped the pen in his hand and pounded his head on the table.

However, no one can help him now.

Sudo Takeru can only rely on himself to survive the crisis of failing.

After the last exam, the reading club members gathered near Sudou Takeru again.

Sudou Takeru felt anxious about himself and shook his feet. At this time, Horikita Suzune appeared in front of Sudou Takeru and said.

"Sudou-san, it's your fault that you didn't read the archeology questions."

"However, during the study period until the exam, you also did everything you could do in your own way."

"I also know you're not slacking off. If you've done your best, then I think you can be proud of yourself."

Sudou Takeru said irritably: "What does this mean. Are you going to comfort me?"

"Consolation? I'm just telling the truth, because as long as you look at your performance so far, you can know how hard studying is for you."

Horikita Suzune was frankly praising Sudou Takeru.

Everyone couldn't believe the situation, so they looked at each other.

"And... one more thing. I have to correct something to you."

"correct?"

Sudou Takeru was a little puzzled, because he didn't know what was going on.

Horikita Suzune cleared her throat and said.

"I told you last time that only stupid people would aim for professional basketball. After that, I went to investigate things about basketball and what it's like to be a professional player in that world."

"Then, I realized that this is indeed a dangerous road of thorns."

"Are you telling me to give up basketball? Just because it's a foolhardy dream?" Takeru Sudou stood up angrily.

In his opinion, Horikita Suzune is going to trample on his dream again.

"It's not like that. You are passionate about betting on basketball. It's impossible for you to be unaware of the difficulty of becoming a professional player, and it's impossible for you not to know how hard life will be in the future."

Although Horikita Suzune's attitude was as usual, this was indeed her clumsy apology.

"Even in this country, there are many people who are fighting in the professional basketball world. And there are even some people who want to enter the world. You plan to aim for this kind of world, right?"
