"Huh?"
Finally someone reacted.
Ayanokoji received 38 votes of praise from the class, excluding Yamauchi and himself! Isn't he still first place?
"Is it because of the praise votes from outside the class?" said Haruka, a student who loves gossip.
Quite curious actually.
Because she knew that she would not get a ranking, but as long as she didn't fall behind, it would be fine.
So now an unexpected scene has occurred and she immediately pay attention to it.
"Yes, In addition to the votes from classmates, each person also has a vote of appreciation from other classes."
This is really amazing.
Because the "outside class" refers to the class outside your own, then it is possible to get more than 100 votes of appreciation from outside.
Of course, only popular figures like Ichinose or Angel Kushida can achieve this situation.
Kikyo Kushida came in third with 37 votes.
'What a bitch!' Although Kushida-chan is smiling, she probably feels this way in her heart.
This is because number of votes either came from fact that people in the class cast a large number of critical votes against her, thus offsetting the praise votes from other classes.
Or... no students from other classes voted for her.
Hello, hello, hello.
So, do all the students from other classes prefer Ichinose?
Kushida once competed with Ichinose in all aspects, even her own dark history was compared with Ichinose.
'But it is obvious that Ichinose-san's dark history is not even black material. So, I didn't win.'
'No, no, don't think like that.'
'I have a good relationship with students from other classes, so it shouldn't be that no one voted for me....Wait a moment.'
'Suppose the students from other classes all like Ichinose-san, so they didn't vote for me, but what about Ichinose-san's class?'
'Students in Ichinose-san's class also need to fill out appreciation tickets for other classes.'
'This is mandatory. If you do not fill in this field, you will be deemed to have given up and expelled.'
'Even though students in Ichinose-san's class couldn't give her an extra vote, they still didn't even give me a vote of appreciation?' Kushida-chan seems to be doubting her life.
She could hold back this expression.
However, stability of the Kushida Empire made her feel a crisis.
Kushida-chan's mind was moving very quickly, and so were the students around her.
But they were different from what she thought.
Because, for Class C, Kushida-chan's popularity is understandable, and Ayanokoji is the lucky one who was chosen, and everyone wrote a vote of appreciation for Ayanokoji as agreed.
There is nothing wrong with the birth of such a ranking.
So who can surpass these two and rank first?
Although they wrote name themselves, most people had a consensus.
A large number of students had an easy time taking exam this time, and only a few students at bottom of the list had to work anxiously to form teams.
For those students who are relatively large in number but more rational, the names they can write are clearer.
Hikigaya Hachiman.
This simplifies the exam and reduces risks for everyone.
There should be 20 votes.
After all, list of the group that Hikigaya was studying for had 26 people.
If there are a little more, maybe 30 votes, after all, this is already a consensus.
It would be safer to stay close to Hikigaya-kun, clutch on to his thighs.
So most people in class knew what was going on.
Chabashira looked at the list of results and smiled at the first place name.
"First place, Hikigaya Hachiman. The total number of votes he got is 78, minus criticism."
~hiss~
Boom!
However, whole class was still shocked.
Because, could only give him 39 votes of appreciation at most. The rest were given by students from other classes.
In class, most students would support him, but there would be some who would oppose, especially those at the bottom who felt crisis about the exam, so they gave him criticism instead of praise.
However, even so, this number shows that Hikigaya may have received 40 or even more votes of praise from the other class.
Even if everyone in the class voted against him and he couldn't vote for himself, he would still have an absolute positive number of votes, so he was absolutely safe.
"What did you do? How could you get so many votes....." Suzune, who was sitting at the side table, looked at Hachiman with eyes of shock!
Even the people in Yukimura's cram school group looked at him in surprise, as if they were remembering that at the party, Hachiman had suggested that it was okay for him to be criticized.
At that time, Sakura-san had only sorted out a few students from other classes who would vote for Hikigaya-kun.
As a result... there are so many now.
However, facing Suzune's surprise, our protagonist shrugged innocently, "I didn't ask anyone to vote for me.....In other words, I didn't spend a penny, Horikita."
This voice echoed around.
'It doesn't cost any money, and you get more than 40 tickets of appreciation from other classes! Where did you go to cheat?!'
There were also classmates around who heard his conversation and couldn't help but complain in their hearts.
Because someone saw on the school forum that Ryuen from Class D was selling a vote for 150,000 points.
So, tickets are valuable.
In the end, Hachiman didn't spend a penny.
"Next is reading of the criticism votes," But now it is Chabashira-sensei who is in control of another outcome of the exam.
There are two possible results for a class vote.
The top three and bottom three of the class appear.
Last person will be expelled.
"First up is 3rd from the bottom, Ike Kanji. The total number of votes he received, minus the number of votes he received for criticism, is -23."
Almost immediately after Chabashira-sensei read it out, Ike Kanji breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he probably knew the result, and immediately looked at Yukimura's tutoring group with gratitude, because this must be the result of the group members not participating in giving him criticism votes.
Then Chabashira-sensei continued reading out the names. "The second to last one."
"Aaaaaaaa——"
As a nervous Sudo was very nervous because he knew that he was the grumpy guy in class and many people must be dissatisfied with him.
He was also on the list of the big group that Hikigaya-kun read out earlier.
Logically, people in the big group should not vote for him because he is a useful person.
But sure enough, when the time came, he was very nervous.
"Second place—" Chabashira-sensei continued reading.
The pool was safe, but several other students who were also at the bottom of the list were still unsure.
So we can only wait for the results.
"Hideo Sotomura, -31."
Perhaps because he didn't expect this result, people were stunned for several seconds.
"I repeat, Hideo Sotomura, are you present in class?"
"Ah... yes, Teacher!" Sotomura stood up nervously. He was a slightly plump boy.
When he entered school, he was called a doctor because of his computer skills.
It was also at that time that he brought in his newly bought laptop, and then Yamauchi and others began to instigate ranking of girls in the class.
Apart from this, because he is fat, his physical fitness is very poor and his academic performance is not very good.
He is ranked two or three places above Sudo.
"Do you have any objection to this result, Sotomura?" Chabashira asked.
"No, no!" He quickly sat down again, because just got scared.
Most of the fanfics prefer his character to break 4th wall, and found this guy very powerful.
But, here got second to last, very close to getting expelled, that's why Sotomura realised his character is not in my good grace.
Chabashira regained her attention.
"One with most criticism votes—" She paused after looking at the name.
"Yamauchi Haruki, 39 votes."
W-what?!
"Yamauchi Haruki, get ready to go through the withdrawal procedures with me."
"…"
39 votes.
You can't vote for yourself, so this means that all classmates voted against him.
Everyone gives him a bad vote! There isn't even a single vote of appreciation!
It is indeed like that!
"Ahhhhh…"
So he came here today to take the exam just to be expelled?
Is it true that no miracle happened?
If he had known this would be the result, he would not have gone out.
In this way, class would have to drop a random guy out of school because of his automatic withdrawal!
At this time, Chabashira had already walked towards him.
Yamauchi also stood up in surprise, but he was still in chaos.

"Sure enough, sure enough,...I don't want to accept this result!"
"I don't want to drop out of school!"
"It will be so embarrassing when I go back!"
At this point, he is actually considering whether it would be embarrassing to drop out of school and return home.
If you pay attention to this, what do you usually do?
"Yamauchi, let's go." At this time, Hirata-kun had already left his seat and walked towards him.
As he said before the vote, he came to bear the guilt of dropping out of Yamauchi.
"Before dropping out, I think you should spend all your points first. If you are announced to be expelled, you need to complete the procedures within 2 hours."
"Phone will be handed over to the student council and will be confiscated regardless of how many points are in it."
"But you can take away the items you already own or have purchased," Hirata was very helpful and a real angel to expulsion, "I learned about these from upper grades in my soccer club."
So why do you want to learn this knowledge, Hirata?
"You, why are you pretending to be so nice...don't you want to save me?!" But Yamauchi was very resistant.
"I thought about saving you, but after weighing the pros and cons, it's better for you to drop out of school, Yamauchi. I want to save you, but I also want to protect other classmates, so I can only eliminate you," Hirata's voice was very gentle, but his words very ruthlessly cold.
"I talked about my past. I felt guilty for not being able to save my friend. In fact, after he attempted suicide, I got angry and beat up the classmates who bullied him."
"The whole class was too scared to continue because of me."
"So, I was asked to take a leave of absence from school for a while," Hirata calmly talked about his past.
However, calmer words were, the more terrified he felt.
"Uh…" Result, Yamauchi suddenly became scared. Because something extremely horrible suddenly happened, "I, I understand. I'll go pack my things—"
It is now the beginning of this month, so he still has 70,000 to 80,000 points on hand.
If you buy something new, such as a computer to take out, you can still sell it for some money.
So Yamauchi ran out immediately.
"Sensei, can I leave first?"
It seems that even so, he is still a good man, Hirata, and time is tight, so he lets Yamauchi pack up his things while he goes to the shopping street to help Yamauchi buy things.
"Okay." Chabashira didn't care much about what you did, "Once the test results are announced, it will be your free time."
December special exam for Class 1-C has ended.
It seems to be going well.
No Scary Koenji, or Yamauchi picking up Haruka's desk to beat people up.
xxxxxxx
However, things are going smoothly for Class C, but not so for Class B at all.
"Sakayanagi, you bitch!"
The results of exam were also announced here in Class B.
It will start from last person.
~hehe~
"Last one, Totsuka Yahiko, - 36 votes."
Then, before Mashima-sensei made a full announcement, Katsuragi exploded.
This is a matter of course.
Because he was prepared to be tricked by Sakayanagi, and he went to Ryuen to buy the ticket at all costs.
The votes he bought were all for himself, but Sakayanagi Arisu... this silver haired lolita... attacked Yahiko!
Katsuragi directly questioned her, "Why, why did you target Yahiko?!"
Targeting Yahiko?
Yahiko???
"W-what?!" Totsuka Yahiko finally reacted and understood the reason why Katsuragi-san was angry.
He thought he had heard it wrong just now, but it turns out he hadn't.
The last one will be expelled.
The person who was expelled from school was Totsuka Yahiko!
"Why, why me?!"
Totsuka also stood up quickly, "Why do you want me to drop out? Sakayanagi, Hashimoto, didn't you say you wanted to vote for Katsuragi-san?"
"• •" For a moment, Katsuragi was in a daze when he heard such negative words, but was just as excited as he was, "Couldn't you just let me drop out of school?"
From Katsuragi's quick explanation, it can be seen that he really wants to protect his follower.
He initially targeted Sakayanagi, and then spent a high price to buy appreciation tickets from Ryuen from Class D, but what was the result?
The statistical results showed that last place in first-year class B was Yahiko Totsuka - 36 votes.
Not only are the tickets he bought meaningless, but even the people around him were voted out of school!
-36 votes, he did not vote for Yahiko, and child could not vote, and Katsuragi even gave Yahiko 1 vote of appreciation, which means that at least 37 people voted for Yahiko, which means that almost all members of his faction rebelled.
Perhaps only person left who supports him is Yahiko.
"Katsuragi, stay calm. You are a student of Class B now, so please show your demeanor as you should," Mashima-sensei still had the test results in his hand, so he looked at the emotionally broken Katsuragi and reminded him, "Shouting like this is not in line with the style of our class."
"....." Katsuragi was silent for a long moment.
