Classroom Of The Elite 2nd Year - Full Volume
Vol 1 Chapter 9

...MID SEMESTER

...

Today is Thursday after school. The day before the middle of the semester.

After Chiyabashira-sensei ended the class and walked out, Kushida immediately

be in action.

He took the old midterm prints I copied at the store yesterday and took them to the podium.

"Sorry, but can you listen to me before you go home?"

Sudou also stopped and listened.

I can't leave this role to anyone but Kushida.

"I hope everyone has learned a lot for tomorrow's exam, I have something that can help for tonight's final lesson, I'll share it right now. He handed out question and answer sheets to everyone in the line

front."

"Measurement ... questions? Did you make them, Kushida-san?" Horikita was surprised as well.

"It's actually an old test, I got it from third year's senpai

night."

"On the old test? Is this the real question?"

"Yes, two years ago, the midterm question was pretty much the same as the one in this case. So, if you practice, I think we'll do better."

"Whoah! Seriously? Kushida-chan, thank you!"

Ike hugged her in happiness. All the other students were also unable to hold back their emotions.

"What the hell, if we have this problem, won't all our lessons be

useless?"

Laughing, Yamauchi complained at the same time. My prediction is right.

"Sudou-kun, do your best while studying today."

"Yes, thank you."

Sudou also accepted the matter with pleasure.

"This is the secret of all the other classes! Let's do it well and

success!"

Ike shouted loudly with determination, but I had to agree. No need to send

help to other classes. Everyone returned home in high spirits.

"Kushida-san, good job."

Horikita approached Kushida and praised him as always.

"Ehehe, so?"

"I never thought about using those old tests. I am also grateful

that you go to see if these questions still hold true

to use."

It seemed that Horikita, who had no friends, did not come up with the idea.

"Nothing special, I'm doing this for my friends."

"Also, I think it's right to announce it today, after school. If the word came out early, everyone might have already lost motivation."

"Just because I got in trouble pretty late. If the same problem exists

on tomorrow's exam, everybody's probably gonna get good grades."

"Yes, also the last two weeks of learning we weren't in vain."

Although those two weeks may be very long for students who score

failed, but I think they're all used to learning.

"It's just as hard, but it's fun."

"I don't think the trio was at all fun while studying."

We've done everything we could. It depends on how much effort

three others were to be studied.

"I just hope that I'm not empty during the exam."

There's not much to do about it.

No matter how good we are

doing it while studying, all that matters is how well we do the actual test. Just practicing with an old test problem can help with this problem.

"Then I'll go home too."

Horikita silently looked at Kushida, who put her textbooks and notes into the

in bag.

"Kushida-san."

"Hmm?"

"Thank you so much for everything until now .If you are not in

here, this study group won't work."

"Don't worry about it ~ I just want to aim for a higher class with everyone, that's why I agreed to help, I'll help at any time."

Smiling, Kushida stood up and grabbed her bag.

"Wait a minute, I just want to pick up one thing."

"Confirms?"

"I need to make sure of something because you said you wanted to keep working together

with me." with me."

Horikita looked directly at the smiling Kushida and asked.

"You hate me, don't you?"

"Hey, hey..." I wondered what he wanted to ask, but it was unexpected.

"Why do you think that?"

"You didn't answer because it's true .. am I right?"

"... Ahaha, you got me."

He put on his backpack and slowly lowered his hand back. Then he

facing Horikita with a smile.

"Yes, I really hate you."

He answered directly, without trying to hide it.

"Should I tell you why?"

"... No, no need, good enough to know the facts, that means now I

can talk to you without a little hesitation now."

Although she was told straight away that she was hated, Horikita was calm

reply Kushida.

"No absences, it seems like everyone is here."

In the morning, Chiyabashira-sensei walked into the classroom with a smile.

"This is the first obstacle to staying in school. Does anyone have any

question?"

"We've been studying diligently for a few weeks, I don't think we're going to

there's a dropout in this class, you know?"

All the other students also had a confident outlook. Putting the test by tapping it on the table, he handed it over.

First lesson

it is social studies. I guess you could call it the easiest test among all subjects.

If anyone travels here, to be honest, all the other tests will be

it became a difficult struggle.

"If nothing fails at midterm and the final in July, all

people will get summer vacation."

"Vacation?"

"Yes, that's right.you're going on a dream vacation on an island surrounded by.

by the blue sea."

Summer and the beach means...

"A-what a strange pressure this ..."

Chiyabashira-sensei took a step back from the pressure she felt from the students (especially the boys).

"All ... Let's do our best!"

"Yeahaaaaaaaaaaa!"

Ike loudly shouted in agreement. I also shouted, blending in with the commotion and noise.

"Misleading."

Horikita. No more sounds came out of my throat.

Before long, the test was distributed to everyone. And with the teacher's cue, everyone

start at the same time.

Looking through the matter, I quickly observed the entire test. Can the trio

pass exams? I checked if the question was similar to the test question

longtime.

- Good.

I made a small victory pose. All questions are identifiable. I didn't

looking at the question too thoroughly, but I can't see the difference.

After the final exam was over, we all gathered around Sudou once again.

"H-hey, how's it going?" Ask Ike worriedly. Sudou also seemed a little uncomfortable.

"I don't know.I do what I can, but I don't know how well I do it ...:

"It will be fine, because you have studied hard, everything will go

well done.

"Damn it, why did I fall asleep !?"

He tapped his finger at the table in annoyance. Horikita stood right in front of Sudou.

"Sudou-kun."

"What's that, are you lecturing me again?"

"It's your fault that you didn't go over the last part, but as you say, you did your best while studying. With how much effort you put in, I think you should be proud of what you did. "

"What is this, are you trying to cheer me up?"

"entertaining? I'm just saying that

actually was. When I saw Sudou-kun, I,

I understand that learning is hard for you."

Horikita praised Sudou. None of us can believe that this is really happening.

"Let's wait for the result."

"Yes…"

"Then ...one more thing, something needs to be fixed."

"Fix?"

"Before, I said that your hope is to become a footballer

basketball is stupid."

"Why do you remind me?"

"I saw how someone could become a basketball player in this world.

I knew that this was a very difficult road to get to

professional."

"Why didn't you tell me to give up? Because this is a dream

stupid."

"Unlike that, I know you have a passion for basketball, I know you

you know how hard it is to be a professional."

It was his usual attitude, but this was truly a strange apology from

Horikita's.

"In Japan, there are a lot of people who want to be professional. Amongst the people

that, there are also people who want to be known internationally.You are a part of

the second group, right?"

"Yes, I was so stupid trying to be a basketball player. Although I

maybe stuck living a miserable life as a part-worker

time, I'll make it."

"I always thought that there was no need to understand anyone else but myself

by yourself, but when you say that you want to be a professional, you,

I immediately insulted you. Looking back, I regret it. Someone who

not knowing how difficult and difficult it is to achieve a goal, it is not right to call it stupid and ridiculous. Sudou-kun, don't forget the hard work you put in to learn and use it for basketball. You'll be a professional with that. That sort of thing, at least, that's what I am

think of. "

Horikita's expression was the same as usual, but she lowered her head to Sudou.

"I'm sorry for what I said at the time... All right, good-bye."

Leaving behind his words of apology, Horikita left

chamber.

"H-hey, did you see that? Horikita apologized !? and that's good !?"

"I can't believe ...!"

Ike and Yamauchi were in shock. I was a bit surprised too. Kushida too

Horikita admits that Sudou did his best.

While sitting in his chair in a daze, Sudou looked at Horikita as he walked out

from class.

Moments later, he placed his right hand over his heart and

staring at us.

"I-this is bad. I. I. I think I'm in love ..."
