Along the way.
Kiriyama Ikuto also explained various parts to them.
Themed hospital-style Haunted House, historical-style Haunted House, Western-style Haunted House.
For just one hundred personal points, one could experience such rich content.
It was simply a great value.
Unfortunately, it wasn't profitable.
Hikigaya didn't think it was a good strategy either.
It might attract many students, but for adults in high positions, it was surely too childish.
Even if it was considered extremely well-made among high schoolers, it certainly couldn't compare to professional ones like Disney.
Walking into the last classroom.
The three also attracted many people's gazes.
Most just gave a slight glance, stayed on Hikigaya for a moment, then turned back to continue their work.
Hikigaya understood.
It looked like Nagumo Miyabi had already told them about the matter of boosting the turnover for second-year Class B during the Cultural Festival.
After all, it was just a matter of giving an order; Nagumo Miyabi's work efficiency was extremely high.
Just then.
Kiryuuin casually tossed the Cos costume aside, walked in front of Hikigaya, and gave Kiriyama Ikuto a brief look.
"Hikigaya, it looks like you've also been tamed by Nagumo."
"I'm not a horse."
Hikigaya's mouth twitched; to outsiders, it must indeed look like that.
"So, what's the problem with that?"
"Nothing."
Kiryuuin said dismissively, suddenly losing interest.
"I originally had some expectations for you, but now it seems you're only about this much."
"..."
Hikigaya was truly speechless.
The two had only met once during the Uninhabited Island Exam.
Forget it.
Everyone has some high self-regard.
Especially someone like Kiryuuin with double A+ in intelligence.
However, in Hikigaya's eyes, her judgment was only a D, clearly having a defect.
Although it was just a superficial judgment based on appearance.
But Kiryuuin Fuuka looked like someone who liked to solve problems with force whenever something happened.
After all, with A+ physical ability, she indeed had that strength.
It might be fine in school, but in society, trying to solve problems purely with force will surely lead to losses.
Unless she has a good father.
Resolve.
Hmm.
Hikigaya gave her an extra look.
With Kiryuuin Fuuka's personality, she couldn't have gone through life without hitting problems; most were likely solved by her forcibly with physical strength.
To have lived peacefully until now.
Kiryuuin Fuuka undoubtedly had a good father.
Otherwise.
She couldn't have an arrogant and supercilious personality.
Although she looked very similar to Kouenji, there was a significant difference between them.
During the Uninhabited Island Exam.
He heard Kouenji was surrounded by third-years, but his thought was to use his physical ability to just slip away, with no intention of using force to resolve it.
Clearly.
Aside from being somewhat narcissistic, Kouenji's physical ability, academic ability, judgment, and insight were all at the top level.
Much stronger than Kiryuuin Fuuka.
One can only pray this person's family background can always provide protection for her.
That wasn't something Hikigaya should worry about.
After speaking.
Kiryuuin Fuuka lost interest and turned to leave, continuing to fiddle with the COS costume she seemed quite fond of.
"Let's go, ignore this person."
Looking at his classmate Kiryuuin Fuuka, Kiriyama said irritably.
If it weren't for the fact that Kiryuuin was always acting independently and completely disregarding the class, they wouldn't have been overtaken by Nagumo Miyabi.
"Oh."
Just then.
From a nearby secret door, Asahina Nazuna, with her long orange hair, leaned her dainty body back and poked her small head out.
"Isn't this Hikigaya, Kiriyama-kun, and Kanzaki-kun?"
"Senior Asahina."
The two nodded; as they spoke, Asahina disappeared from sight and then walked out of the secret door.
She was wearing a pure white kimono with a small triangle on her head.
Seemingly a ghost?
It was just that she was too cute, not feeling scary at all.
"Waaah..."
Asahina bared her fangs and brandished her claws, striking a scary pose, excited like a child.
"How is it? How does it feel?"
"Well..."
Kanzaki and Kiriyama were somewhat speechless, but Hikigaya nodded:
"Hmm... It suits you well, Senior... I guess?"
My apologies.
Not scared at all.
"Is that so?"
Asahina raised her small hands and did a spin in front of the group, seemingly quite fond of this outfit.
Third-year Class A had already opened a huge gap with Class B.
There was no need to worry about graduation.
Asahina seemed to be living quite happily.
"Forget it."
Asahina lowered her small hands, leaned her body forward toward Hikigaya, and scanned his eyes with some exasperation:
"Spending personal points to boost turnover is indeed a good method, but why did you have to find the third-years? Wouldn't finding the first-years also work?"
"..."
Kiriyama Ikuto and the others showed no change in expression; clearly they already knew about this since yesterday.
Buying turnover.
Converting personal points into class points.
Rationally speaking, it was indeed a good method.
This couldn't be called despicable either.
Even if other classes wanted to emulate it, it would be hard to gather the class's personal points.
Some people have more money, some have less.
Some people have already saved up hundreds of thousands of personal points, while some are still "moonlight" spenders.
How to contribute money fairly.
It was an extremely difficult thing—on what basis should one pay for others?
This was a method that only a class that was united enough and where everyone still had enough savings could use.
"Finding President Nagumo is more convenient, right?"
Hikigaya said indifferently.
To find the third-years, you only need to convince one person, Nagumo Miyabi; to find the first-years, you have to convince at least four.
Moreover, Nagumo Miyabi has follow-up support.
This shouldn't be very hard to think of.
"Really now..."
Asahina let out a sigh, somewhat helpless:
"I originally wanted to wait for you and Miyabi to determine a winner before I could make a decision, sure enough..."
Speaking, Asahina said with some disappointment:
"Is it Miyabi's victory again this time..."
Actually.
Nagumo Miyabi's strength was indeed more outstanding than most, but everything had been too smooth along the way; losing once would be better.
Furthermore.
Asahina really couldn't stand Nagumo Miyabi's style of doing things.
Using personal points to toy with feelings, dating those women who were in a crisis—it was just unpleasant to watch.
"Forget it, forget it."
"Then I wish you, Hikigaya, success in the Cultural Festival."
Saying so.
Asahina then turned and walked into the secret door.
Looking at Asahina's back, Hikigaya's eyes showed a thoughtful look.
Clearly.
Nagumo Miyabi was arbitrary and dictatorial, acting willfully based on his own strength; there were not a few third-years who had opinions against him.
It was just a pity.
In order to obtain the chance to ascend to Class A, the third-years were also helpless.
However.
Asahina had an opinion of Nagumo Miyabi clearly because of other reasons.
It might be worth getting in touch.
Leaving the Haunted House.
Under Kiriyama Ikuto's explanation, Hikigaya finally understood the work of the Student Council.
"Senior Kiriyama, can I borrow a little of your time after club hours are over?"
Approaching the Student Council room, Hikigaya spoke in a low voice.
