4. Special Css Assignment Rules!
Although he discovered the big pitfall of the room card, when Aragaki Shun arrived at the single dormitory prepared by the school, he was still very satisfied.
The space was about rge enough to fit eight tatami mats, suitable for a single person.
This was definitely enough for them, high school students.
Bed, desk, balcony, bathroom, small kitchen... all facilities were complete.
Coupled with the free water and electricity, one had to say the school was indeed generous in this aspect.
After putting away the purchased daily necessities, Shibata Sō also returned with three servings of the free set meal packed.
So, the three of them coincidentally enjoyed their first lunch at school in his room.
Surprisingly, the free set meal prepared by the school looked quite sumptuous from the outside.
It was mainly vegetables, mixed with meat and eggs, and even had a specially paired soup.
According to Aragaki Shun's past training experience, the nutritional content of this set meal was definitely sufficient, fully capable of meeting the growth needs of high school boys and girls at this stage.
It was highly probable that it was more nutritionally banced than the delicious dishes students ordered according to their own preferences.
It was somewhat surprising, but also quite normal when thought about.
The school was a pce entrusted by parents to take care of and train their children.
Training students to become talents was secondary; the key was not to have health problems.
If news spread that a rge number of Advanced Nurturing students were hospitalized due to malnutrition, this school would have long been demolished by angry parents.
However, if the free set meal wasn't cking in terms of nutrition, then it should only be that effort was put into another aspect.
Sure enough, while Aragaki Shun was still deep in thought, he turned his head and saw Shibata beside him continuously sticking out his tongue after eating a mouthful of vegetables.
"Hiss~ What's going on? Is this burnt or too much seasoning? My tongue is almost numb after eating it."
Hearing this, Kanzaki Ryuuji also put a mouthful into his mouth, chewed a few times, and then swallowed it with a slight frown.
"The taste is a bit bad, completely out of sync with the appearance."
"It should be that the school deliberately made it taste bad. This is to force students to work hard to ensure the one hundred thousand points per month, warning us that if the points run out, the school will only be responsible for the students' basic survival, but if we want to live better, we can only rely on ourselves."
Aragaki Shun also began to taste this carefully prepared set meal from the school.
To be honest, it really wasn't very tasty, but it was still edible.
Eating it once or twice occasionally was definitely harmless.
But if one really had to eat this kind of set meal, deliberately made to be unpatable, every day...
Sorry, even he didn't want to intentionally make things difficult for his own tongue.
Silently finishing this set meal, Aragaki Shun picked up his phone and saw that the css group chat was already filled with various compints about the taste of the free set meal.
As the proposer of this suggestion, Aragaki Shun smiled, did not join this topic, but chose to privately message Ichinose Honami, asking her if she had managed to get any information from the senior students who were also receiving free set meals.
[Ichinose Honam: "The seniors are very cautious about this. Everyone can see that they are already tired of the free set meals. So, when we proposed treating them to high-css set meals, they were all tempted."
[Ichinose Honam: "But even so, they still refused to sit and chat with us. However, after we promised not to ask about other things, and just to make friends with the seniors, we still found out their csses and names..."
After finishing talking about what she saw and heard in the cafeteria at noon, Ichinose sent over a neatly organized list, with css, name, and gender clearly marked.
Under the girl's meticulous organization, Aragaki Shun saw the abnormality on this list at a gnce.
On the list, among those who came to collect free set meals, the first and second rgest numbers were from Third Year Css D and Second Year Css D, followed by Third Year Css C and Second Year Css C.
As for students from Css A and Css B, neither third-year nor second-year students chose the free set meal.
This pattern was a bit too obvious.
[Aragaki Shun]: "So the points are distributed in order from A, B, C, D, from most to least?"
[Ichinose Honam: "I asked my friends in Year 1 Css A, Css C, and Css D. The points they received this month are also one hundred thousand, and the rules expined by their teachers are almost the same as what Hoshinomiya-sensei said."
Good heavens, she made friends with other csses so quickly.
As expected of Ichinose-angel-sama.
[Aragaki Shun]: "So all four csses have the same starting points, and the gap only begins to differentiate after the assessments. But why is it that the points decrease from A to D?"
[Aragaki Shun]: "Did the school use a special css assignment rule when dividing csses, or is the css name actually changed based on assessment rankings, with the first-ranked automatically becoming Css A and so on?"
These two possibilities were both easy to understand.
In his previous life, the high school he attended also had separate advanced csses and ordinary csses.
If the school initially assigned the best students to Css A and the worst to Css D, then it would be normal for the points of students in each css to be ranked in such a pattern after the second year.
However, Aragaki Shun thought for a moment and directly dismissed this possibility.
Not to mention that he and Ichinose Honami were first and second in the entrance examination respectively.
Even if Advanced Nurturing High didn't emphasize academic ability, it was impossible for the comprehensive ability of the entire Css A to be stronger than both of them.
Moreover, this kind of competition where the result was determined from the beginning was completely meaningless.
Therefore, it was more likely that the school determined the css letter according to the assessment ranking.
Whichever css had better results would be promoted to Css A and have more points each month.
[Aragaki Shun]: "Ichinose, could you please take some cssmates to interact with other csses ter? Just make friends normally, no need to specifically investigate anything, and don't feel pressured as if it's a task."
[Aragaki Shun]: "Oh, right, about the school's hidden rules, tell everyone not to spread it outside for now. The school has issued a gag order to teachers and senior students, so they probably intend to assess our csses' information gathering abilities. I don't know what the consequences will be for leaking answers to other csses."
[Ichinose Honam: "I understand. Actually, everyone suggested having a karaoke session together. Now, bringing students from other csses together for everyone to get to know each other is also good."
[Aragaki Shun]: "Mm, I'm not good at this aspect, so I'll leave it to you. However, other csses should also have people who have noticed something wrong with the school. Warn our cssmates to be careful and not get tricked."
[Ichinose Honam: "I'll pay attention. But everyone is a cssmate, even exams don't affect making friends. Being tricked shouldn't happen, right?"
[Aragaki Shun]: "It's always good to be careful."
