Cote v16 chapter 3 part 3.1

 If you have any objections, it would be helpful if you could raise them here, as you have done in the past ...

Normally, the students who have given their support here will come forward.

However, no one can answer Horikita's question, even though he has been waiting for it.

"How long have you been silent Koenji"

"Red-hair kun As I said earlier, I don't want you to proudly assume that I was in the symbiosis."

"Shut up I know you're fooling around anyway."

If it wasn't Koenji, Sudo's forward anger might have made it difficult for him to identify himself.

If the agreement is unanimous, a vote will begin to drop someone out of the class.

In other words, those who want to drop out one classmate and get 100 class points.

In a bad way, it attracts attention and becomes the subject of criticism.

I really don't want anyone to think that way.

"That's enough,"

"Calm down, Sudo-kun. It's only the first round of voting, there's no need to panic."

"But! I don't like the fact that he voted in favor of this option."

"It's up to you to interpret it that way, but there's no conclusive proof that it's Koenji-kun and whoever voted in favor of it.

I interpreted it because that person feel sorry for not appearing. This vote is anonymous, so here Let's stop the deep pursuit of. If you cast vote oppose in the second vote, it will be unanimous. That's enough."

The issue was cleared. Horikita seems to have decided that there is no need to spend extra time.

As I thought, it would be one of the best choices she can make now without pursuing it.

"I don't need any further discussion on this subject. Let's finish it with the next round of vote"

Seeing the calm Horikita, Sudo also  control himself.

While talking, we reached the second voting time.

"Start voting for 8 seconds from now on"

The LCD screen is switched, and the buttons support and oppose are displayed.

It seems that the voting was completed in about seconds without additional seconds for everyone to vote.

"Since the vote is over, the result of the second vote will be displayed."

2nd vote result:  1.Support ( 2 votes); 2.oppose (37 votes).

This is a special examination that has never created such a strong tension. But as soon as the second results were announced 

it was obvious that the air in the room frozen Once again, the result was two votes for Support.

It meant that the votes had not shifted even after the explanation I had just received.

The inorganic monitor told the truth.

"Wait a minute ... what does this mean?"

While saying that, Horikita was the only one who turned her gaze to me.

The question is why did you vote for the second time?

Students who understand after receiving the explanation earlier, including Sudo, also look at me.

"I voted oppose on first round of vote and the second vote now, both of them."

"Huh? Hey, that's it Ayanakoji was the role to put in option 1?"

"Yes, but as expected of the content task, so I decided that it would be better to cast vote to oppose for the first time.

I didn't tell because I didn't want to cause any extra confusion. "

If there were two people in the first vote, the tension would increase.

This is because it cannot be ended just because it is a playful thing about Koenji.

Horikita, who has been calmly carrying up to this point, is also a little upset.

"Yes ... there are two people who think that it's currently on support."

Horikita puts her hand on the chin and thinks. You might want to stop and think about it, but the interval is too long.

"If you're going to keep voting for support, could you tell me why you're in support here? The results are as you can see.”

All but two of the newcomers voted against. If you want everyone to vote in favor of the project, you'll have to make an appropriate presentation.

The basis for moving votes is discussion.

If more people decide that there is a big advantage to those who agree, the vote will move naturally.

On the contrary, it is not easy to move vote without discussion.

However, the answer to that question was the silence of everyone.

"Hey, Horikita-san It's okay isn't it?  you don't get Classmate out of your class, do you ?”

Kushida, who was worried, couldn't stand the silence and asked Horikita that question 

“As I said before, my policy is to never let anyone leave the school."

Horikita reiterates her determination, but the silence begins again.

The first and last coercion is in the first half, but... 

"I don't know who is against it, but listen carefully."

Yosuke utters gentle but powerful words.

"You should not choose to cut off your classmates in order to gain class points. I don't care if it's 500 points or 1000 points.

What's more, the points you actually get are 100.

I don't think there is a price to pay for the points you get from. "

The complaint of the man who hates to sacrifice someone is natural.

They believe that no one can be expelled from the school while sparing 100 points.

But ... whether that is the true intention is another matter.

Even before the first vote, the opposition to this task was greatly influenced by the undefeated task pressure.

Some students in the class must think that they will never drop out.

At that time, it's not surprising that some people don't really care about the sacrifice of their classmates.

"Haha, it's getting interesting, isn't it? It's pretty cool"

Koenji continues to laugh happily.

"I thought it would be the other way around in the second round of voting except for me."

Koenji replied, without any signs of being afraid.

"Except for you ... After all, Koenji!"

"Koenji-kun, is that true? Here, [Become a boy causes troublesome confusion, so I want you to stop But "

Horikita reconfirms first by giving priority to clarifying whether he was really the opposite.

"Don't worry. On the first and second occasions, I was firmly committed to favour."

".... Can you tell me the reason?"

"The answer is simplicity. Will class points increase by 100? In other words, private points that you can get every month are inevitable.

There is no reason to pursue the opposition. "

"Say something silly. Is class points more important than friends ?"

"You also say something interesting. When you first entered school, you didn't look like that person, did you?"

"shut up!"

"I'm in favor of it, so of course I'll consider it."

"What do you think of your, friends ?"

"Friends? I never thought of you as friends."

"Do you mean you're not going to change the opposite in the next vote?"

"Of course not. I'll probably continue to vote support if it stays that way. I'm sure Horikita Girl doesn't want to run out of time ? "

"Don't think things will go your way, Koenji. If that's what you're thinking, I'm going to show you no mercy. We all voted support and have Koenji expelled!”

It may be the answer that I arrived at suddenly, but it is also true that this task has such an aspect for those who are successful.

It is also possible to unite and expel the bad guys who say that their classmates can drop out.

One unknowingly chooses what he wants to believe and then justifies the reason for choosing it.

Nobody wants to drop out, but it can't be helped because there are students who agree.

The brain works to justify that the person can't help being dropped out.

It swallows good logic, conspiracy, and false information.

"It would be nice if everyone voted Support. But don't think you can get me expelled for it.

Isn't that right? Horikita Girl"

Of course it will. If Koenji came forward as one of the people who vote in support, it was only natural that people around him would make a fuss about expelling him

It's a natural flow. 

There was no way this man didn't understand that.

As he is showing off, Koenji will never be expelled from school..

".... As he says. You can't drop out of Koenji-kun."
