The Trap Set by Yuto Shimizu!
Chapter 23 - The Trap Set by Yuto Shimizu!
As the chairman of Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing High School, Chairman Sakayanagi had scrutinized the personal data and experiences of every new student, thus he was aware that Ryuen Kakeru was a delinquent.
Consequently, Chairman Sakayanagi was also aware of the reason behind Yuto's use of such force.
Yuto harbored an extreme disdain for delinquents.
Seated on the sofa, Ryuen Kakeru maintained his glare at Yuto, who sat opposite him.
Yuto squinted his eyes slightly, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.
Yuto's piercing gaze resembled blades, causing Ryuen Kakeru's eyes to sting unexpectedly.
Instinctively, he averted his gaze and stopped looking at Yuto.
Taking the central seat, Chairman Sakayanagi spoke slowly, "Having observed the entire drama through the surveillance camera in the Class C classroom, I have a general understanding of what happened. Sakagami-sensei, do you have any details to add?"
Internally, Sakagami Kazuma felt a bitter pang.
The classroom's surveillance camera not only captured video but also audio.
Consequently, Chairman Sakayanagi was privy to all occurrences within Class C today.
What more could he possibly articulate…
He could only follow Chabashira Sae's lead and insist that the fight was a sparring session, or else he would undoubtedly face repercussions.
"Chairman, we were indeed engaged in a sparring session, and we possess a contract as evidence," Sakagami Kazuma hastily explained.
"I have already reviewed the contract you signed via the school's system."
Chairman Sakayanagi nodded subtly before addressing Sakagami Kazuma sternly, "Given that it was a sparring session, why did you not relocate to the gymnasium and instead chose to engage in combat directly within the classroom!"
"Sakagami-sensei, don't you know what kind of impact this will have!"
"My apologies!" Sakagami Kazuma hastily bowed his head, expressing his embarrassment and regret.
Observing Sakagami Kazuma's demeanor, Yuto couldn't suppress a laugh.
"Haha!"
Sakagami Kazuma, with his bowed head, gritted his teeth in mortification.
It was all because of this student, Shimizu Yuto! He was coerced into apologizing!
"Student Shimizu!" Chairman Sakayanagi's gaze sharpened as he addressed Yuto, "What are you laughing at!"
"I simply found something amusing and momentarily couldn't contain my laughter," Yuto casually responded.
Yuto harbored no fear towards Chairman Sakayanagi.
To him, the chairman was merely a middle-aged man who even regretted playing chess with him.
What reason was there to fear him?
"Chairman, Sakagami-sensei should not bear sole responsibility either."
Yuto's statement surprised Sakagami Kazuma. He hadn't anticipated Yuto advocating on his behalf…
Pointing towards Ryuen Kakeru, who had remained silent throughout, Yuto remarked, "It was Ryuen who said that it was too troublesome to change the sparring venue, so we just sparred directly in the classroom."
"And Sakagami-sensei was also very kind to compensate for everything that was damaged in the classroom, so that we could spar in the classroom with peace of mind."
"…"
Recalling the fourth clause of the contract, Sakagami Kazuma's heart sank.
He never fathomed that he would be obligated to cover the costs of replacing shattered windows, desks, and chairs within the classroom.
In truth, after viewing the Class C surveillance footage, Chairman Sakayanagi was similarly dismayed...
It was merely the first day of the freshmen year!
Yet, the glass windows within the Class C classroom lay shattered, while numerous desks and chairs were damaged.
All courtesy of Shimizu Yuto, Sakagami Kazuma, and Ryuen Kakeru!
Now, Sakagami Kazuma perceived that Shimizu Yuto intentionally inflicted such extensive damage, then manipulated him into assuming the financial burden!
Indeed, Sakagami Kazuma's suspicions were affirmed…
Yuto resented him for letting Ryuen Kakeru do whatever he wanted, so he tricked him.
Otherwise, why would Yuto hurl Ryuen Kakeru towards the window!
"Given that both parties attribute this incident to the contract, let us conclude matters here."
Chairman Sakayanagi directed his attention towards the disheveled Ryuen Kakeru, remarking, "Sakagami-sensei, take Ryuen-kun down and treat his wounds properly. "
"Yes!" Sakagami Kazuma didn't dare to disobey.
"Wait a second."
Yuto raised his hand, directing a smile towards Ryuen Kakeru seated opposite him.
"Ryuen Kakeru, did you admit defeat earlier?"
"Yes, Ryuen-kun conceded defeat," replied Sakagami Kazuma on behalf of Ryuen Kakeru, who clenched his teeth in frustration.
"Since you admit defeat, then in accordance with the contract, you owe me 750,000 points."
Yuto smiled after hearing this and gave a shocking statement.
"What?!"
Ryuen Kakeru and Sakagami Kazuma were both taken aback.
"Why 750,000 points? Wasn't it agreed upon as 100,000 points?"
Ryuen Kakeru retorted, perplexed and incensed.
"Hey, who told you it was 100,000 points."
Yuto grinned and retrieved his school terminal, indicating the third clause of the contract.
"According to the third clause, the loser has to pay the winner the same amount of points that the winner has in their balance."
Yuto emphasized the point "winner has in their balance," then displayed his student terminal to Sakagami Kazuma and Ryuen Kakeru, revealing his current private points balance.
"The private points I possess at present are—750,000."
"750,000 points?!"
Sakagami Kazuma looked at the number displayed on Yuto's student terminal in disbelief.
Not 75,000, but 750,000 points!
As per the third clause of the contract—
If Yuto lost to Ryuen Kakeru, he would only lose 100,000 points.
Because Ryuen Kakeru only had 100,000 points.
If Yuto won against Ryuen Kakeru, he would get the number of points he currently had, which was——750,000 private points!
Sakagami Kazuma's heart brimmed with trepidation and disbelief.
This Class D student had devised such an inconspicuous yet formidable trap within the contract!
Even he, a graduate of this institution, failed to discern any irregularities...
After all, who wasn't aware that freshmen possessed a mere 100,000 points! It was common knowledge.
And it was this common sense that led to them falling into his trap.
Who would have anticipated that Yuto would possess 750,000 private points!
"Aren't you a new student who just enrolled? It's only the first day of school, why do you have 750,000 private points! "
The surprised voice from the chairman's office made Chabashira Sae, who was waiting outside, smile slightly.
That's right, after freshmen enroll, they have 100,000 private points in their balance.
But the bad boy Shimizu is different.
He spent 150,000 private points with her to buy information, then went to Class B to sell it for 10,000 points, and then swindled 740,000 points out of Class B students as hush money.
So Yuto's current balance is... 750,000 private points!
According to the third clause of the betting contract between Shimizu Yuto and Ryuen Kakeru, Ryuen, as the loser, will owe Yuto 750,000 private points.
Therefore, Yuto's balance will soon be——1.5 million private points!
"From where did you obtain these points?" Sakagami Kazuma queried Yuto incredulously.
"Why does it matter?" Yuto retorted with a smile.
