Last night at 22:00.
The school's director's office.
The chairman and a group of faculty and staff stayed inside.
"It's amazing," a staff member said. "So far, the number of points in the private account of Houtarou Oreki's student ID card from Class A, first-year student, has exceeded 10 million in just 2 hours."
"No, the speed is still increasing."
"Eleven million, no, twelve million."
"Still rising..."
"It seems that students are very determined to work." The staff member couldn't help but say.
As staff, they already knew that Oreki Houtaro immediately started recruiting renters after buying out his part-time work rights.
If you want to get permission to work, you have to pay 100,000 points.
Valid for three years.
If you don't use it all, you can transfer it to someone else.
Therefore, the points in Oreki's account increased from 100,000 per person.
One person is 100,000, and 10 students is 1 million.
Excluding the 4.22 million in Houtaro Oreki's account, which leaves 1.22 million basic points after deducting the 3 million buyout rights, his account now reaches more than 12.1 million.
In other words, more than 100 students are already seeking permission from him.
This is more profitable than opening a store like Nagumo and it is also more popular than opening a store.
However, these students will not think about it. Although this is a completely closed school, the place where they can work is the shopping street.
The number of basic employees in the shopping street is about 1,000.
So even if someone is needed to help with work, there won't be that many people needed.
In the end, do you still want to work part-time?
But obviously.
No one wants to miss this opportunity.
So take it first and then talk about it.
"It's normal because that's how our children are taught."
"The little girl in my family is also working outside to increase her pocket money." Another staff member said. "After all, the pocket money given to her is often not enough."
That is to say.
In this country, it is normal for students to work part-time.
It would be better to say that they are not allowed to work, which is a bit unacceptable.
"but."
Another staff member, however, looked worried.
"Chairman Sakayanagi, is this okay?"
"With so many students involved, they don't need to be completely attached to the school."
"So it may not be possible to cooperate with various special examinations for training." The staff member said.
So, after he said this, everyone turned their attention to the man who had put his hands on the table from the beginning.
This man has short silver-white hair and wears glasses.
middle-aged man.
Seems very approachable.
And this is the chairman of this school. He is also the highest authority owner.
And this staff member's proposal is important.
The school makes students completely closed, and then trains students by giving them scores that can be converted into points through special examinations.
But now, if students can get points at will, do they still need to listen to the school?
Do not.
The store opening proposed by Nagumo before was a bit over the top.
Through this plan, Nagumo gained a large number of points every month. Not only did he join the student union, but he also gained control over the second-year students.
The second grader then simply turned around and treated the school's monthly special exams as if they were ATMs.
This was something the school did not expect.
So they have been thinking about how to deal with it.
However, according to the chairman, the school's responsibility is to provide a stage for students.
Unless necessary, there will be no interference.
And if someone like Nagumo can emerge, they have to take another look.
Yes.
Nagumo's store opening is continuing.
Nagumo's turning the second grade into a salted tuna also gave them another chance to notice.
Or, let the student president handle it.
Therefore, it is beyond the school's control but not completely out of control.
But now the right to work is completely beyond control.
If students have other sources, the school will lose control.
So this is enough to impact the way this school has been operating.
So this is the biggest crisis since the school was founded.
Suddenly, all the staff in the room were no longer in a lighthearted and joking mood, and all looked at Chairman Sakayanagi seriously.
"indeed."
Noticing that everyone was looking at him, Chairman Sakayanagi, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses, spoke.
"I gave Oreki Houtarou permission to work part-time before, but now it's a headache," he said.
"..." Everyone.
So, since you feel it's a headache, don't approve it in the first place.
However, everyone also knows that Chairman Sakayanagi hopes to cultivate talents.
Therefore, we will do our best to delegate power to students to develop freely.
And since there are students who can discover loopholes in insight and then attack, why not give the other party a chance?
If it is too rigid, it will only be mass-produced for other students.
And this is where the school has been having trouble over the years.
Students from all over the country were gathered and brought here for training, but the final result was unsatisfactory.
"What do you think about this?" Chairman Sakayanagi continued.
While everyone was talking, a serious boy with short black hair and glasses who had been standing in the shadows came out.
This is the best student council president since the founding of the school - Horikita Manabu.
"I have a high opinion of Oreki Houtaro," Horikita Manabu said. "I tried to invite him to join the student union at the beginning of his enrollment."
"He has a keen eye."
"I think we can contain Nagumo."
"But looking at it now, it seems that my original evaluation was too low. Nagumo is not as sharp and thorough as him." Horikita Manabu said.
"That's true." Chairman Sakayanagi nodded. "This is a pretty understanding kid."
"This is another agreement he signed at the time."
The chairman opened the drawer and took out a contract with Houtarou Oreki's name and signature on it.
And everyone looked over.
[I have obtained part-time working permission. If this brings trouble to the school, I, Oreki Houtarou, am willing to give up my part-time working permission for free. ]
"Is it free?"
"Yes." Chairman Sakayanagi nodded. "He knew what he was doing."
"When I agreed to his purchase authority, he also gave us a step-down."
"So it makes sense, and we have to respond."
"So what do you mean?" Everyone else looked at him, including Horikita Manabu.
So at 22:00 yesterday, the school had formulated a solution.

And time pulls back to the present.
"Yesterday I posted two posts on the forum."
"The first post is about Vice Chairman Nagumo's asking 5 million points for opening a store."
"Then the second post was about selling part-time work rights." Houtaro Oreki said.
"Oh. That-"
As a little social angel, Kushida certainly knew about the forum, and yesterday's forum became popular.
Part-time work rights and so on.
but.
Part-time job permission requires 100,000 points, which is impossible for freshmen to obtain.
Kushida also had 5% of the remuneration from Oreki's previous plan to open a store, which was a total of 153,000.
It seems enough to buy a part-time job.
but.
What she was thinking about was that she had been deceived into opening a store that she and Oreki had participated in before, and she had to work alone.
Although the blame can be passed to Nagumo, there is still some loss.
For example, there is a problem with the students in Class C.
For girls, they made an appointment to go shopping together, but they were told that there was a Ryuuen Kakeru from Class C, who ruled the class with violence and prevented them from contacting people from other classes.
So the girls didn't dare to anger Ryuuen, so they had to shut up.
As for the boys.
Kushida sent the message, but Ryuuen intercepted it on the spot and then scolded the boy who received Kushida's text message in front of the whole class for being a slut and coveting other people's bodies.
As a result, no one on the boy's side dared to contact Kushida.
so.
Class C has almost completely cut off contact with outside classes.
Yes.
A part of Kushida-san's circle of friends that she hopes to make friends with has been cut off.
This made her feel a little prickly inside.
Yes.
When she discovered that Oreki had gained some new part-time permission, she wasn't too concerned about it.
She even looked at her phone carefully at night, wondering how she would refuse if Oreki cooperated with her again at that time.
After all, she had been deceived once, and she didn't want to be fooled again.
Fortunately, Oreki-san didn't contact her or ask her to work last night.
"So is the permission to work part-time real?" Kushida kept looking like a cute little angel.
"It's true, but the school won't allow it, so it will probably be taken back soon," Oreki said.
Thinking back.
That's it.
Kushida-san's cute expression seems to be going away.
so.
If the school will take it back, won't he have to bear the stigma?
Therefore, it is better not to participate in this kind of thing.
It seems that I did the right thing.
However, while she was thinking this, Kushida heard Oreki continue.
"But the school will allow Nagumo-senpai to open a store, which means the bottom line of the board of directors is very low."
"When I purchased my right to work, I signed a contract expressing goodwill with the chairman."
"So, the permission to work will be taken back."
"but."
"The school will probably compensate me and the students, and eventually we will reach a situation that everyone can accept," Oreki said. "Therefore, it's hard to tell the exact number of points obtained this time."
oh.
That's it.
So did she miss an opportunity?
Kushida-san's mood became not so good.
Because of the conversation between Horikita and Oreki just now, Horikita Suzune became involved in this collaboration.
So, can Horikita Suzune make money again?
Not only was she not selected, but she also missed an opportunity to receive free compensation from the school.
Little Kushida's mood suddenly... became less beautiful.
As she thought about it, she noticed that Oreki's phone vibrated.
It seems that a message has been received.
That's it.
Kushida understood communication and atmosphere well, so she took a step back to show that she was not peeking.
but.
She has seen it.
Above is a message.
[Oreki Houtarou, our bet is still valid, right? Cash it in during lunch break today! ]
by a string of unknown numbers.
But the person with this number...
"It's Vice President Nagumo," Oreki said. "Wasn't he very annoying before? So I made a bet with him. If I make 5 million in 3 days, then he will give me 300,000 points for free."
"And now, it's probably the time when he feels like he can cash in."
"so."
Oreki-san then looked at Kushida-san, whose mood was like a roller coaster in these few short minutes.
"Do you want to find a way to get back at him together?"
Do you want to find a way to get back at him together?
Of course, Kushida knew about Nagumo. In the last plan to open a store, it was the vice president Nagumo who jumped out and asked for money.
And then he was also discovered to be a playboy.
As a result, she stupidly told the other party her full name.
So Kushida was actually in a bad mood.
but now.
Do you want to follow Oreki to find a way to get back at him?
indeed.
She didn't want to be entangled by Nagumo. If she followed him, it would deepen the other person's impression.
but.
The current Oreki-san... I haven't seen him all night.
And he made a bet with Vice President Nagumo, making 5 million in 3 days, and now he can cash it out, which means...
That is to say. He must have earned another 5 million.
Adding in the previous store opening plan with 51 people participating would cost tens of millions of points.
Kokushida weighed the pros and cons in her mind.
Class D also spent money to get the school rules from Oreki-san on the first day of school.
So she knows very well how difficult it is to collect 20 million points.
As a result, half a month later, Oreki-san has accomplished a feat that has not been accomplished by so many generations of students.
Of the 20 million points, nearly 10 million have been obtained.
so.
"Can I, is it okay?" Kushida-san showed a cute expression.
"Of course." Oreki nodded.
Nagumo suddenly contacted him, and Oreki speculated that the school had made the decision.
Although Nagumo was a member of the student council, he was unable to obtain the most core information.
So it's possible that he came here to show off his power.
In other words, he might bring a girl or something.
He's not very good at dealing with girls, so it's okay to bring a toolman there to show off his momentum.
Although Horikita-san is suitable for the background, she has a special status as she is Horikita's younger sister.
If this were known, one could be attacked.
So no matter how you look at it, Kushida-san, who looks cute but is relatively easy to control and has nothing to do with everyone, is the most suitable.
"Um?"
Kushida-san noticed Oreki-san looking at her.
So she showed her cutest look.
"Nothing." But Oreki walked to his classroom.
Then.
During the lunch break, the two went to the shopping street together.

During the lunch break, you can eat and rest. When eating, you can choose to make your lunch or go to a canteen, a small shop, or a shopping street that is not far away.
There are a lot of shops in the shopping street, and there are many options for lunch.
However, Oreki Houtaro and Kushida Kikyo chose coffee and dessert cake.
Mainly because this is the only thing in this store.
Because this is a milk tea shop, to be precise, it is Yayunju of Nagumo.
Nagumo asked Oreki to come here, but the agreed time came and Nagumo hadn't arrived yet.
So Oreki ordered lunch on the spot.
It wasn't until 20 minutes past the agreed time that the door of the coffee shop was pushed open.
"Welcome - boss."
the waiter said.
But the tone seemed to become more respectful.
Nagumo bought permission to open a store, but after all, students couldn't come and work in a store, so he applied to the school to recruit waiters and staff.
And this tone made Nagumo very happy.
And to Oreki's expectation, Nagumo came with a female companion.
The female companion he brought was beautiful.
She has long orange hair and a sunflower hairpin in her bangs.
But Nagumo's behavior after entering the store was a bit strange.
He seemed to be looking around for something, and then he spoke directly to the female companion beside him as if he was dismissive.
It was a pity that Nagumo kept talking, but the female companion around him didn't seem very interested.
Because this is Nagumo's childhood sweetheart Asahina.
She probably felt that Nagumo was annoying, so she looked around.
She quickly spotted Oreki-san sitting in the corner with Kushida-san.
"Isn't this Oreki-kun?"
Asahina walked over directly.
"..." Nagumo.
Nagumo found Oreki after entering the store or mainly looking for him.
Then he deliberately left Oreki aside to dry.
but.
He wanted to laugh.
Because he had deliberately delayed arriving at the agreed place for 20 minutes, but this junior did not leave at all.
Still stupidly waiting to fulfill the bet with him.
Yes.
Silly.
From Nagumo's point of view, this junior student finally fell.
True.
The part-time job permission granted by Oreki yesterday shocked him to the point where he felt like he was going to lose everything.
Not only did he lose the school girl, but the authority of the second grade was also destroyed.
Because everyone can work, there is no need to follow orders.
Nagumo knew that although some students were his fanatical supporters, more people were dissatisfied with him.
And because these people couldn't find a way to trip him, they could only lurk.
Passively accept orders.
result...
Now that the permission to work is released.
He went to count the remaining 134 second-year students, and there were a hundred people who wanted to pay Oreki Houtarou for part-time permission to work.
Choosing to work almost means that you want to get out of his control and get points by yourself.
Therefore, after discovering that his biggest support was about to be defeated, Nagumo tried his best.
then.
He persuaded 60 of the 100 students who wanted to pay for the right to work.
In the end, only 40 people successfully transferred money to Houtaro Oreki.
And one transfer has 100,000 points.
so.
Oreki Houtarou has plundered 4 million from this place since the second grade.
Then, this is the case of the second-year student who was persuaded.
Freshmen may not have money, but juniors still have money.
And working part-time is a common trick among students.
So let's not talk about Class A or Class B of the third grade, students from Class C or even Class D who have no points, even if they have 0 points, will borrow points to buy a part-time job permission first.
Yes.
The number of buyers in the third grade may exceed 80 people.
So Oreki is going to make another 8 million?
So, not only the first-year students but also the second-year and third-year students are so easy to defraud out of their money?
This is unbelievable, but the result happened, making Nagumo a little jealous.
Yes.
envy.
He knew very well that the part-time working permission Oreki thought of evolved from the store opening permission he had already obtained.
In other words.
If he had thought a little more here, he would have been the one to get so many points.
hateful.
But it's a pity.
When Nagumo thought he was about to lose, Horikita Manabu informed him.
Oreki's transfer of part-time job rights aroused enthusiastic participation from students, and after consideration, the school finally decided to... terminate it.
Yes.
Oreki Houtarou will have to return all the points he received.
This made Nagumo feel happy.
And now this Oreki junior still thinks that he has earned 5 million, and can he dig out 300,000 from him?
This ignorant look is kind of cute.
Nagumo was in a happy mood.
"Hey, isn't this Oreki-kuni?"
"It's 4 o'clock, you're still here." Nagumo greeted.
He found that the cute Kushida Kikyo junior classmate he had met before was also here.
But it's a pity that Suzune didn't come.
But it's okay if you don't come.
because.
Today his target is not them.
He especially brought his childhood sweetheart here to ridicule Oreki Houtaro.
The girls in the class are too green, and even his childhood sweetheart will mention Oreki Houtarou.
indeed.
Nagumo planned to find Honami Ichinose, a schoolgirl from Class B, as a spare tire.
So he thought about it and decided to comfort Asahina first.
Since Asahina is interested in Oreki Houtarou, a bad junior student, he should first destroy Oreki's image in front of Asahina.
So he deliberately brought Asahina over to watch Oreki fail.
But he didn't expect that Kushida Kikyo, this junior classmate was also there.
So both girls can see the moment when Houtarou Oreki fails.
but.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Nagumo-senpai." Houtaro Oreki stood up with his mobile phone. "Although you are a senior, I don't think it is polite to use your status as a senior to keep people waiting."
"Also, I don't want to talk to you now, but please give me the 300,000 points you lost to me."
With that said, Oreki Houtaro showed the QR code for payment on his mobile phone.
"I was supposed to earn 5 million in three days. Now less than a day has passed and I have completed the task."
"Nagumo-senpai, you also need to fulfill the results," Oreki said.
"..." Nagumo.
He noticed that the two girls were looking at him after Oreki said that.
Nagumo's face was a little confused, but he remained elegant,
"Haha...you don't know yet, your part-time permission has failed."
"I'm a member of the student council, so I know in advance."
"The school finally considered terminating the permission to work."
"So all the points you collected need to be returned."
"Has the permission to work part-time been taken back by the school?" Nagumo's female companion, Asahina Nazuna, asked.
"Yes." Nagumo nodded. "After all, this is a move that can impact the school's points distribution, and the school will not allow it."
"So, I admit that Oreki-kun's insight is very good, but if you step too fast, you will get hurt," Nagumo said.
And as he said this, he was paying attention to the expressions of Oreki and Kushida.
result...
It was found that there were no reactions at all, from the two of them.
Did you expect that your part-time job permission would be taken away?
"Then continue scanning the QR code." But Oreki maintained his original expression. "Senior Nagumo, you talk too much. You asked me to come here, but you made me wait for 20 minutes. I don't want to spend any more time with you."
"..." Nagumo. "You!"
