Chapter 5 : Kakeru Ryūen's decision

Another person in this classroom, was also beginning to be engulfed in heavy air.

That is, of course, because the content of the last task selected was intense.

Assignment: Get 100 class points instead of dropping out one classmate.

(If the agreement is unanimous, the students who will be expelled will be voted)

First vote result : Support (14 votes) , Oppose ( 26 votes)

This is the moment when the voting results were disclosed. Horikita's class, as well as Ichinose's class, concentrated a lot on opposition. 

But there are two things.

Compared to the class, quite a few classmates were in favor of dropping out .

In other words, students who feel in their first impression that class points should be prioritized even if they drop out.

Is more than one-third.

"What are you going to do, Ryuen-san ?"

In response to the results, Ishizaki was the first to ask for instructions from the class leader, Ryuen.

The whole process leading up to this assignment also started with this procedure.

Since the probability of getting unanimous agreement on an issue at one time is low, they listen to the leader's policy in the first interval and aim for unanimity in the second and subsequent votes.

The sequence of events is similar to that of other classes, but the accuracy is extremely high.

 Task 1: Confrontation class, Task 3: Protection point 

In each case, it only takes one interval to reach unanimous agreement on the choices Ryuen has given It is unanimous.

The only thing he let them do was decide on the school trip in task 2. 

I let my classmates debate for as long as they wanted, and In the end, the destination with the highest number of votes was unanimous.

It is obvious to everyone that this task 5 is different, but the method is essentially the same.

All Task that may require instructions are determined in one word from the leader.

The students are keenly aware of just which side Ryuuen voted for.

If Ryuuen votes for Support, it means that someone will be expelled from the school. 

An irresistible decision. 

That is also a characteristic of the class that brings students together by dictatorship.

Looking at the result, the Ryuuen rose from the chair with a smile.

" It's been a boring time so far, but as expected, you didn't mean to just play at school. So Otherwise, it wouldn't be interesting. "

He goes to the teacher table muttering to himself that all his classmates will hear.

 Watch over the whereabouts of the class in charge Sakagami was there, feeling him approaching and taking a distance.

He knew well that this was where Ryuen's stand-up act would begin.

He sits on top of the seat as if it were a reserved seat .

Then he took the attitude of looking over all his classmates and said his first word.

"Raise your hand, the one who voted in support"

Ryuen orders, which have no consideration at all, run into intense tension regardless of the opposition to the assessment.

In the previous tasks, I didn't ask which option I voted for.

After a few seconds of hesitation, hands began to be raised. 

There were also Nishino and Kaneda who raised their hands while staring out the window as if unwilling to do so 

" Five people, huh? Well, I guess that's about right. That's pretty good for a first time."

The fact that there were nine students who disobeyed the order and didn't mention that they had voted in support

It was students like Ishizaki, Komiya and the others who were first surprised to see this.

"Hey, don't you think it's worth hiding badly? It's like getting angry because you've Supported once.

There is no such thing. "

Komiya appeals to his silent classmates that it will not be a hassle now.

"I wasn't instructed to do so. It was up to the individual to either Support or Oppose."

Komiya explains that it is not to be blamed, and makes sure that it suits Ryuen just in case.

However, because the Ryuuen did not respond immediately, Komiya felt a momentary tug of connection.

If there was a misinterpretation, it could result in a reprimand.

"Raise your hands quickly before I bother you !"

Hating to change the atmosphere of the place, Ishizaki hurriedly followed up.

Then one student raised his hand apologetically. This brings the total to 6 people, but the remaining 8 people are still left.

"It's okay, Ishizaki. If you don't want to raise your hand, you don't have to. For now”

"Well, is that okay?"

"As Komiya said, it's up to each individual to agree or disagree. That's why each one of you should think about what you want to do first.

We have a little over 8 minutes left, and we have plenty of time to spare. "

Checking the time without panicking, Ryuuen does not try to change his posture without breaking his smile.

I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out. And for more than two minutes, he remained silent without doing anything.

"No, don't waste this time. Think about which one you should vote for"

The silence from here.

From here on, it was silence.

Ten seconds passed, and then another, and then another, but he doesn't even try to say anything.

All the tasks so far have forced the choices to be decided at the first interval.

That's why all the thoughts about why the Ryuen don't give instructions go around the students' heads.

However, there are few students who can skip such opinions, and as time goes by, the mouth becomes heavier and closes.

"Please give me some instructions"

Ishizaki and his classmates, who seemed to be able to say so at first, are getting sloppy.

The upper lip and bottom stick together and do not open as if fixed with glue.

As time goes by, I almost lose the desire to speak.

Eventually, those who want to speak by themselves hide the noise and shift to someone will speak for themselves.

After that, even though the remaining time is longer, I started hoping that the voting time would come sooner.

The long and long feeling of the first interval ended with spending most of the time in silence. 

For this reason It seems that Sakagami was also unexpected, and he forgot to proceed even after a few seconds after the scheduled time.

"Sakagami-sensei Isn't it time?"

I was surprised at the leaves of Ryuuen, who once got off the teacher desk and tried to return to his seat.

"..... Yes..That's right. We will now have a second round of voting, and you have five seconds to cast your vote."

As soon as the second round of voting was over, the results were shown on the monitor.

2nd voting Result: Support (10 votes) Oppose (30 votes)

In second round, who had votes, 4 of them turned to negative votes. For the majority who do not want to drop out, this result is generally bad.

There was no. If Ryuen speaks harsh words one or two more times, the number of votes in favor will decrease further and in the not too distant future, the opposition will Unanimous.

 The result of the second vote, where you can see the agreement.

However, Ryuen sees the result and shows that he is not convinced.

"Is this the answer you thought? I don't think so."

"Is it because the number of votes in favor is small?"

Kaneda asks while fixing the position of the glasses. However, Ryuuen immediately denied it.

"That means ... Ryuen-kun is voting in Support."

Rejection denies the point, and laughs once with his nose as if he was amazed.

" Well, what the hell is going on,  Ryuen-kun ? I don't know."

" Did you really reflect your intention in the vote the first and second time?

 This last task is obviously heterogeneous.

 it's not normal. That’s why I want to know your true intentions. I don't care which way I voted.

Don't be so emotional. Choose your choice honestly. "

With that said, the Ryuuen stood up and started walking slowly in the classroom.

"Discuss thoroughly for the last 10 minutes. Do you want to Support or Oppose?"

When instructed to do so, the students are forced to discuss desperately.

Surrounded by a hectic hustle and bustle, he begins to talk freely .

While listening to the story, the Ryuuen occasionally puts his mouth close to the students' ears and speaks in a whisper.
