Hikigaya doesn't want to be a force of strength

"The school stipulates that the instructors must act together with the classes until the exams are over. Once you have decided on the location of the base camp, report to me and I will set up a base there. The daily roll call is also required to be conducted there."

“Once the base camp is decided, it cannot be changed without a valid reason.”

After Chabashi Sae finished speaking, he took out a cardboard box from the pile of sundries and said, "There is one more thing, and that is the use of the toilet. When you need to go to the toilet, use this."

"Huh? What is that?"

When the students saw the cardboard box in Chabashi Sae's hand, they all looked confused.

"Each class is equipped with a simple toilet. Please use it with caution."

As soon as Chabashi Sae finished speaking, the girls in the class went wild!

"Does that mean we girls have to use that thing too?"

Shinohara Satsuki was already dissatisfied with the conditions in the wild, so naturally she was the first to jump out and question them.

Her status among girls was not as high as that of Karuizawa Megumi, but it was not much inferior either, and she soon gained the support of many girls.

"That's right. Both men and women must use this simple toilet." Chabashira Sae said coldly, "But don't worry, the school will provide a lightweight tent that can also be used for changing clothes. I believe that you won't be seen by others."

"That's not the problem! You want to solve it on a cardboard box! I absolutely can't do it!"

“It’s a cardboard box, but it’s a well-made, high-quality product that can be used in disasters.”

Chabashira Sae completely ignored the girls' reactions and assembled the toilet with skillful movements.

She also specifically explained how to use absorbent paper towels:

“In principle, only the plastic bag and the absorbent sheet are in unlimited supply, so it’s okay to replace the plastic bag every time you use it.”

"..."

Chabashira Sae's detailed explanation did nothing to ease the resentment of the girls in the class.

If they were really stranded on a desert island, they would not complain, but since it was just an exam, there was no reason to persist.

"Of course I can't do that! I absolutely can't do that!"

As soon as Shinohara Satsuki spoke, she received support from a large number of girls.

Ike Kanji argued: "It's just a toilet. This isn't something worth arguing about, Shinohara."

"Don't be ridiculous!" Shinohara Satsuki didn't back down at all, "This has nothing to do with boys, right? What's with the cardboard toilet? I absolutely cannot accept it!"

Seeing that the quarrel between boys and girls was about to cause the class to split, the homeroom teacher, Chabashira Sae, watched coldly and had no intention of getting involved.

Seeing this, the leader of Class D, Hirata Yosuke, quickly spoke up: "Everyone calm down first. The exam is more important than the toilet issue."

"But the toilet issue should be decided as soon as possible, right?"

Hirata's words did nothing to stop the quarrel.

Hikigaya had expected this.

After all, this involves a fierce dispute between two different viewpoints. If life and death and victory or defeat are not determined, it will certainly not be easily resolved.

Hirata's attempt to smooth things over might have worked under normal circumstances, but under such extreme conditions, there was no way to extinguish the fire that had already started.

In fact, Hirata himself quickly realized this and knew that providing a solution was the best option.

However, Hirata does not have that ability.

He lacks sufficient means and courage.

That's why he can't even maintain stability in leading Class D, and so many incidents have broken out since the start of the school year.

But he was still thinking hard, and suddenly he seemed to have thought of something, and excitedly took out the guidebook: "Oh, by the way, this guidebook says that you can use points to buy temporary toilets."

Yosuke Hirata looked excited, as if he had found a way to calm public anger.

But after seeing all this, Hikigaya couldn't help but reveal a helpless expression.

You made the worst choice, Hirata-kun.

For example, Hirata thought he had found a basin of water that could extinguish the flames of his emotions, and he quickly poured out the liquid in the basin.

Unfortunately, he did not realize that what was in the basin was not a person, but a basin of concentrated gasoline.

The moment the gasoline was spilled, what was coming was not the extinguishing of the flame, but a completely uncontrolled, raging fire!

This class is finished.

Chapter 235: Hikigaya is definitely the mastermind behind your class!

In this school where strength is everything, Class D is undoubtedly at the bottom of the school and has the lowest status.

But this low status was not arbitrarily set by the school, nor was it because Class D itself was unlucky.

In fact, this school has clear rules and standards when assigning students to different classes, which indirectly leads to different conditions in different classes.

First is Class A. As the most outstanding and top class, Class A has been superior to all other classes from the very beginning. This can be seen from the fact that it has obtained more than a thousand class points in just two months.

The strength of Class A should not be underestimated.

However, Class A, as the best class, is not without internal contradictions. Or rather, it is precisely because of its excellence that contradictions arise.

That is the confrontation between two major factions led by Arisu Sakayanagi and Kōhei Katsuragi.

This is an unexpected situation caused purely by the fact that both sides are too strong and it is impossible to immediately distinguish who is more suitable to lead the class - the two parties are fighting each other.

In contrast, the overall strength of Class B is weaker than that of Class A, and is even comparable to Class C in terms of class points.

But Class B has one biggest advantage, and that is unity.

From the beginning of the school year to now, there have been almost no internal conflicts in Class B. Apart from Chihiro Shiranami's overly lesbian behavior, Ichinose Hoba has almost complete control over the entire class, and few students have different opinions on class strategies.

This is due to Ichinose's own strong ability and personal charm, and also because the students in Class B generally have a stronger sense of collectivism and obedience.

As for Class C, it is a feudal kingdom ruled by Ryuen Sho.

The other party controlled all students with absolute violence, making no one in Class C dare to disobey his orders. It can be said that it was an absolute dictatorship.

Of course, no matter what the shortcomings of the three classes are, their greatest advantage is the same, that is, they can obey any order in a short period of time for the improvement of the class.

This resulted in the other three classes immediately obeying the orders that would best improve their class status once the exam came, no matter what happened in their daily lives.

At least that's how it looks on the surface.

However, the situation in Class D is completely different, or the exact opposite.

As the class with the worst situation, the biggest problem of Class D is that students of different levels are unable to immediately reach a unified goal when facing exams.

Everyone has different ideas and considerations in their minds.

Class D also lacks an absolutely strong leader who can forcibly bring together different opinions.

This led to all kinds of conflicts breaking out in Class D again and again. Every exam was like a trial from hell, and it was terrifying to watch.

Although under normal circumstances, when faced with class conflicts, Hirata Yosuke, as the current leader, can suppress the conflicts with his prestige, but once there is an incident that Hirata cannot solve and both sides cannot compromise, the entire class will explode in an instant at an extremely fast speed.

Not to mention, at this moment, Hirata Yosuke has taken some actions that have further exacerbated the situation.

Hikigaya could literally see a raging fire beginning to burn.

"A makeshift toilet?!"

"real or fake!"

"Is there any good stuff like this?!"

When Hirata Yosuke finished speaking, girls like Shinohara Satsuki immediately turned their heads and looked at the manual in the other person's hand.

The guidebook does include a temporary toilet that can be purchased with points, and it seems to function perfectly, and judging by the reference photos, it's almost as good as a toilet at home, and it can also flush.

Seeing this, almost all the girls showed expressions of acceptance.

However, the problem is that each temporary toilet costs 20 points.

For an exam with a total of only 300 points, using 20 points just to go to the toilet is really too extravagant.

Unfortunately, the girls in Class D don't seem to share this view.

"This thing is absolutely necessary! Having said that, although I don't really like this... but if it's not this, there's nothing I can do!"

Shinohara Satsuki spoke first, and her words attracted the approval of many girls.

For girls, the existence of toilets may be even more important than food or water, and they quickly conveyed the idea that "this is the only thing we will not give up."

"Wait a minute, you guys!"

"It's twenty o'clock!"

"Just for a toilet?!"

When Chi Kanzhi saw this, he objected immediately.

There were many other boys who could tolerate the cardboard toilet, but considering the value of 20 points, they could not accept the waste of money.

"What's wrong with the toilet? This is also a very important thing!" Shinohara Satsuki ignored the boys' protests and looked at Hirata Yosuke, "What do you think, Hirata-kun, this should be very important."

In response to the girls' gazes, Hirata nodded under pressure, "That's right... At least it would be better for girls to have a decent toilet..."

"Hirata, don't be ridiculous!" Ike Kanji cursed. "Just for these guys to use the toilet, they have to spend 20 points. Why don't you give us boys a toilet too so we can all use it together!"

Ike Kanji's voice received support from many people.

Class D, which is usually a loose group consisting of different small groups and acts independently, quickly formed a faction led by Shinohara Satsuki that was willing to spend points and a faction led by Ike Kanji that was unwilling to spend points after facing this problem that could almost be said to be at the level of stance.

This is undoubtedly the formation of a huge contradiction, which is more deadly than the minor quarrels in the past and is enough to tear the entire class apart.

Hikigaya had foreseen all this happening, which is why he showed such a pessimistic attitude when he saw Hirata Yosuke take out the guide manual.

If the toilet problem is limited to the toilet itself, it is still a proposition that can barely be solved by personal prestige.

But once the toilet issue represents more than just a toilet, but the collision of two completely different viewpoints, namely, "willing to spend points to live comfortably" and "unwilling to spend points and hoping to accumulate as many class points as possible", even if an enhanced version of Hirata appears, it is impossible to resolve this conflict.

In fact, it is true.

When they saw that Yosuke Hirata was unable to give a reasonable and reliable answer, both factions were almost unwilling to compromise and began to deepen the conflict.

The boys who advocated saving points and the girls who advocated using points even started to attack each other, and it seemed that the conflict of opinions was about to turn into a conflict of genders...

"Everyone……"

A cold sweat immediately appeared on Hirata Yosuke's forehead. His personality made him unwilling to offend any party, but because of this, he would never be able to solve this problem that was about to explode.

"Ugh."

Seeing this scene, Hikigaya sighed helplessly, feeling that he could not continue to watch.

He didn't sympathize with Hirata Yosuke, but he felt that if he continued like this, he might not be able to break away from the main force and carry out operations on his own by night.

If that happens, it will even affect his attempts to test Class A.

Therefore, we must quickly resolve this troublesome problem.

For this reason, Hikigaya used his eyes to hint at Karuizawa who was standing in the distance, looking a little at a loss.

The other party was originally at a loss as to what to do because of Shinohara Satsuki's tough attitude.

After all, Karuizawa is the leader of the girls and she should represent the girls' opinions. However, Shinohara forcibly stole her limelight and negotiated on behalf of the girls in advance. If she simply agreed with Shinohara, her own prestige would be affected.

But if she were to oppose Shinohara's point of view, there's no telling what would happen.

Therefore, Karuizawa was caught in a dilemma for a while and didn't know what to do.

After seeing Hikigaya's eye hint, Karuizawa was completely relieved. She stopped thinking too much and realized that she only needed to obey orders.

"Shinohara-san, can you listen to me for a moment?" Karuizawa suddenly spoke up as the scene became increasingly chaotic. "Although I know it's hard to use that kind of toilet, the points are more important to our class... If possible, I think we should try to be patient."

"What!? Karuizawa-san... why are you like this!?"

Unexpectedly, Karuizawa Megumi, as the leader of the girls, would choose to agree with the boys' point of view. Shinohara immediately showed a confused look.

Because as long as the majority of girls follow Karuizawa, the influence of her words will be limited anyway.

Faced with the girl leader's job-hopping, Chi Kuanzhi's supporters were immediately greatly encouraged.
