COTE: A Man On A Mission II Love is War?

Class D, first grade.
　　
Forty students are all in the classroom. It's time for the written exam soon.

That's why, everyone was memorizing the answers carefully. And this is thanks to their Ryuen.
　　
The students of Class D got information from the unruly Class C and found out that their class actually had test papers for the upcoming exam.

It would be better to say that the test was actually old questions.
　
And this kind of thing... As soon as he heard about it, Ryuen immediately sent a pony girl to verify it.

After verification, he bought the paper immediately.
　　
However, Ryuen only started to distribute it to everyone yesterday.

If the statement is posted in advance, people will not read it seriously, so he planned to make a surprise attack at the end.

And because the class evaluation score has gone to shit, many actions do not matter.

So, now the teacher is in class, but the students don't give a single fuck and were busy reciting the papers.

Ryuen is the tyrant of his class, and uses violent methods to control these mango people after enrolling in school.
　　
Although they are still unconvinced and feel that his discipline is too harsh, while some even wanted to throw dirt on Ryuen's head like Tokito...
　　
Especially last month, because he agreed to Class A's request to lower Class B's points, and their so-called leader just started fighting. Even beat his own people up, broke their hands and other dark stuff.....

The argument is that if it works for those defects, it can also be applied to Class B. And the price of doing this is also very beautiful.

Class A will pay them a total of 800,000 every month, which will be divided evenly into 20,000 personal points for each person.
　　
Equivalent to 20,000 yen. So, this kind of thing can be done.
　　
You must know that they only entered school for six days, and then their class evaluation score of nearly 400 points was deducted.

So, most people don't think they will have any points after the month is over.
　　
Then there will definitely be nothing left of the private points given by the school according to each class.
　　
So, if they can find a meal ticket from Class A until graduation, that would be cool, right?

All students agreed. Then the results were disastrous, and everyone who went to fight against Sudo, got scammed!
　　
Not only did Class A's meal tickets go away, but 400 points were deducted from the class evaluation score.
　
Even Sakagami-sensei, got molested! It makes people feel despair. 　

Then, will they continue to stay quiet for the remaining 200 points in the next month? 'That kind of thing is very uncomfortable.....'
　　
So, Ryuen chose to explode himself, and their class points was directly reset to 0.

There is nothing to say about this.
　　
Now, what needs to be considered is the upcoming written examination. 'If you fail, you will be expelled from school!' That's what their Homeroom teacher announced with a horrifying expression.

Scumbags immediately started sweating, even their class leader, Ryuen.

However, he obtained the test papers from the seniors after learning that ANHS allows students to cheat legally.

'What an amazing school! There's no need to study at all! Isn't this amazing?! Those were the thoughts of student from Class D.

The whole school has been customary to take a set of papers passed down from their forefathers.
　　
In other words, shortcuts can be taken in this exam. This is great for their class, which is full of delinquents.

And now.
　　
'What they probably think is that they already have zero points anyway, so it doesn't matter what they do during class time?

'That's why hurry up and learn these questions, if you don't want to punched by me!' This was an order, from Ryuen himself.

The old test paper had about 120% over-the-top content, but the remaining 80% was fine for most people.

Even if they have poor academic performance, they only need to memorize half of these 80% to pass.
　　
And they are all multiple-choice questions, so there is no problem.
　　
There are now three days until the exam. So, even if people just take a quick look, passing is not a big problem.

Of course, the premise is that you really get this paper in the exam.

Because the school allows black-marketing of exam papers, which is a bit exaggerated.

'This school is really weird' A magneta-haired boy, thought in his heart. And when he thinks about it.
　　

“Based on the types of reactants and products, the number of substances before and after the reaction, it can be divided into four types:

Combination reaction (A+B=AB), decomposition reaction (AB=A+B), and displacement reaction (A+ BC=AC+B) and metathesis reaction (AB+CD=AD+CB).

This is a must-test point, students should remember it carefully."

The Chemistry teacher was explaining the key points of the exam on the podium, but few students were listening.

Along with the teacher's lecture, the corridor outside suddenly became noisy.

"What happened?" The students in the seats in the corridor looked outside through the windows, while others also looked over curiously.

The chemistry teacher just sighed and told his own story. He is just a teacher, not a head, and salary is already too low.

Therefore, he has no responsibility or obligation to care about these students. 'I am just here to get money, and it’s always like this anyway.'

"It's the Student council president!" Manabe Shiho, who was near the front door, exclaimed, "President Horikita Manabu's walking towards our class!"

"Really?!"

“Don't fuck with me?!”
　　
"Student council president, what is he doing here?"
　　
"No way. Did something happen?"
The students in Class D became noisy again, completely forgetting that it was still class time.

"Student Council President?" Ryuen, who was sitting at the back, frowned.

Since this is class time, what is this guy doing here? 'Doesn't he have to those document stuff to sign or some other random shit?'
　　
But "Bang Bang——" A knock on the door sounded. Manabu stood at the door, while knocking with his right hand.

The chemistry teacher of Class D looked over, while Manabu pushed up his glasses and said, "Excuse me, teacher, two minutes of delay.”

“It's okay." The chemistry teacher hurriedly stepped aside, as if he was a little flattered.

He is just an ordinary teacher, but the other party is the Student council president.
　　
In this school, the power of the President is undoubtedly beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

When this scene fell into the eyes of the students in Class D, they looked at Horikita Manabu with reverence and awe.
　　
Although they deserted in class, some arrived late, and even left early. Even started reading those black papers, but they did not dare to confront the teacher head-on.

"Students from Class D." Horikita Manabu walked up to the podium, followed by several tall students who looked like they were in the third grade.

In addition, the secretary Tachibana Akane, who has a purple bun, also followed him as usual.

"I received a report that someone stole the exam papers." Horikita glanced around for a moment, but as soon as he spoke, everyone was shocked.

The students in Class D suddenly panicked, and their bodies kept twisting, as if they were being poked by Suzune's compass.

"...." Manabu. Needle felting. Of course they didn't do anything like stealing.

However, they do have exam papers in their drawers or schoolbags! Moreover, everyone still has one portion!

"Nah..." As the person behind this whole fiasco, Ryuen had an incredible idea at this time. He has a sharp mind and reacts instantly.
　　
Realizing how fucked up this current situation is.

"It seems that the report is indeed true." Manabu took in the expressions of every single person in the audience, but his eyes were calm.

Then he slowly stretched out his hand and said calmly, "I don't want to search your schoolbags and drawers, so, you, the one squatting over there, please bring up the test papers on your desk."

"Hey..." Suddenly, everyone in Class D immediately turned their attention to the direction pointed by Horikita Manabu.

There, was a weak-looking girl with short hair named Morofuji Rika, who was trying to hide under her desk.
　
When the President was looking for the test paper, she quickly tried to hide them into her drawer, and then
cover it with her textbook in a panic.

"This is review materials, not test papers!" Rika, who had a weak personality like Airi, suddenly panicked and hurriedly try to defend herself.

In this aspect, she's indeed superior to Sakura Airi. But Manabu still wasn't impressed, and just gave a look to the boy next to her.
　　
That child nodded and then walked towards Rika to get the papers.

Manabe in the back seat seemed to want to stop him, but she just sat in fear.
　　
"Pa~" Manabu took the paper from the boy's hand. He glanced at it and immediately confirmed that it was filled with exactly the same questions, that are going to be used in the mid-term.

Elder Horikita, who was devoid of any kind of emotions from his childhood, just casually stretched out his hand to flick those sheets and cast oppressive eyes on the criminal named, Rika.

"Where did the test paper come from?"

"No, I didn't steal it!" Rika became even more anxious, almost crying, and hurriedly explained, "It was Ryuuen-san, he was the one who brought it." Immediately throw the blame.

'I'm innocent, just like a little angel' Rika thought so in her heart, didn't know whom she's trying to convince.

'Oh? Are you talking about me?' Stop being noisy, Kushida-san, and start milking your breasts honestly! There are numerous cases of, innocent cows being slaughtered around the world?!

“...” Kushida.

"Brush~" Then everyone looked at this amazing person.

It was indeed the paper that Ryuen brought, But.
　　
'You can't talk about this kind of thing directly at this time, and what you said, Rika, is very problematic.'

The Student council president received a report that someone stole the test paper, but the real person who committed this serious crime was infact, Ryuen, their hand massager.
　　
Therefore, the two are different concepts.
　　
However, now that the Judge himself, is staring at him with such great pressure, no student can remain unswayed.

"Who is Ryuen?" Manabu asked directly without paying attention to the details.

"I am." The said person already knew that this time, his boat is already capsized in the gutter, so he admitted it generously.
　　
Horikita glanced at him with a cold expression and said directly, "Class D stole the test paper, so 100 class points will be deducted. Of course, since it has already became 0, there won't be given a negative.....But”

'So, what's it going to be?' Ryuen already knew those previous results, the only thing which was worth....
　　
"As the initiator, you will be personally deducted 500,000 points and receive one demerit....Those points must be repaid within this semester, otherwise you will be expelled.

• In addition, if you have more than three demerits, you will be sent to the gas chambers and given a painful death..."

“Huh?.... w-what the fuck did you just say?! Gas chambers....How dare you threaten my life?! I'll fucking kill you with my bare hands?!” Ryuen's mentality immediately exploded, and he charged at this motherfucker, kicking several desks away.....

“Aaahhh.....Help! Somebody...”

________

“The fuck is going on here?!” People immediately started screaming, when a crazy beast-like Ryuen, smashed a senior's head repeatedly with brute force, using a chair, spreading his brain matter everywhere.

President immediately stood up, to counter after protecting his Tachibana, from a group of boy's who also started fighting, ordered by the criminal Ryuen, himself.

_________

"...." Hiyori Shiina, a silver-haired girl, with extremely beautiful facial features. She was originally born in Class C, with hobby of reading books like crazy, was very busy inside her own little world, unaware of what's really going on, in the outside world.

The Student council president went to Class D. Caught stealing test papers.

The news spread quickly. But before people could verify it, they heard the school announcement.

Horikita Manabu's voice came from the PA equipment in each class.

"Due to a major theft of test papers among first-year students in our school, those papers are now invalid, and the school will use Paper B for the mid-term."

"Class D of the first grade was suspected of stealing test papers and cheating. That's why, 100 class points were deducted.

Those who were directly involved in the incident, Five hundred thousand personal points will be charged and one demerit will be given.”

One hundred and sixty first-grade students sat in their respective classrooms, looking up at the loudspeaker above the blackboard.
　　
From the loudspeaker, the voice of the Student council president, Horikita Manabu came out, as well as the results of the handling of the incident.

Then.

"What, what does this mean?!"
Students in Class C, today is only 3 days away from the midterm exam.
　　
Logically speaking, Hikigaya-kun promised that he would give them the papers, that he bought from the upperclassmen with 100,000 points tomorrow.

But the current situation is...that paper will not be tested?!
　　
"Hikigaya-kun!" Because it was time for class to end, Hirata's mother left his seat directly and walked towards Hachiman.

As the glue of the class, his classmates also received more than half a month of make-up lessons.

There has been some progress. However, many student's academic power is still not good enough and they need those.....invalid papers?
　　
But the announcement says that the old questions will no longer be tested?
　　

"The thing about stealing test papers was probably just a theory." Hachiman decided to take the front stage, and stop this mess.

Well he was the one created in the first place after all, “Because no one is stupid enough to go directly to the office to steal papers..... So, Ryuen and the others are probably reported for buying old questions."

“....In other words, the B test paper will be used now. So, the previous one is no longer valid," A female voice interrupted this nice conversation.

This is Horikita Suzune. She looked imposing whenever she wasn't facing her brother.
　
But now. A little bit regretful.
　　
Because. 'The paper that I worked so hard on was just discarded' Even though Suzune thought so, she was a little happy inside her heart.

And a chibi-Suzune was running around wildly, throwing cans of lemon soda everyone.....'This calls for celebration!' 

Very excited.

"It should be like this." Hachiman who can see the reality behind his neighbour's empty expression, decided to ignore her, “Because the President directly announced this, it shows how seriously the school is taking this matter. Therefore, the old questions will probably not be tested again.”

Even though Hirata's face was being darkened the longer, Hachiman continued saying these rude things, he still chose to be wise, and continued, “After all, it has been exposed that Ryuen's class knows the test questions."

"And if the other classes lagged behind because of this, specially Class A and B, then both the school and the Student council will be disgraced.”

“....” Kushida. 'Am I going to be scolded too?' She was getting scared, and started blaming her superiors.

So, what should the students in Class C do? If there are no papers, there will still be a group of students who are at risk of failing.

After all, they have only been studying for more than ten days now, and it is impossible to make rapid progress during this period.

____________
　　
Class A, first grade.
　　
"Ryuen is pulling some tricks again this time." Listening to President Horikita's voice coming from the loudspeaker, Yahiko Totsuka, Katsuragi's, boy lover opened his mouth.

"And he himself paid for it,” Katsuragi also agreed with his boy, "Is Ryuen also an idiot?" He couldn't help but think like this. Two complete failures.

"After all, they are only students of Class C, not to mention they have fallen to D now." Yahiko started talking excitedly, he likes ridiculing other people quite a bit, “And now, since the old questions can no longer be used, it is an opportunity for us, Class A!"

'Is it an opportunity?' Indeed.
Horikita Manabu has said that the school will use the B test paper to take the exam.

Then, they have to follow the normal exam rules.

For Class A, everyone has great academic ability, and good little boys, who can read without any problem.
　　
So, if they take the exam just like usual, then their Class A should be able to get a high score of 100 points as a reward.

'Really?' A girl with long purple hair, with no smile on her face, and who always looked tense, didn't take it seriously.

Because. Kamuro-san was an insider of this whole tragedy. The school has not prepared any B test paper at all, it's just a superficial response.

Therefore, the real test paper should be the one written by Sakayanagi Arisu.

Kamuro-san got it yesterday and started memorizing it.

Most of the students in the class are nerds, so there is nothing to worry about, but these people are really disgusting. She couldn't help but conplain in her heart!

Because the average score of top students is very high.

At the same time. The passing mark is also over the top. It was unsettling, but now Kamuro-san feels at ease.

With this thought, she looked at Sakayanagi in the front seat, who just pressed her elbows on the table with a smile on her face.

'I'm afraid this girl will go to the student council to play with other people's dolls during lunch break.' In this way, Kamuro-san thought very rudely about her owner.

“Masumi-san... you're really a very bad girl” A small voice was heard, and it reached the said person's ears.

“....” Kamuro-san. 'H-how did Sakayanagi find out?!' She started panicking, and thought about those painful times when she was bullied by this little girl.
