Book 1: Chapter 7: Intro
The group of failures
It’s the first weekend of May. Ike and the others started listening to the teachers silently. Only Sudou kept sleeping through class, but no one tried to stop him. Because no one find a reliable way of increasing our points, Sudou’s habits were not fixed.
However, Sudou still received the ire of a lot of the classmates every day.
… I’m sleepy too. Because it’s the period right before lunch, it’s hard to stay awake. I also stayed up late watching a movie. It’d be great if I could fall asleep now…
“W-whoah!?”
As I was nodding off, my right arm experienced some severe pain.
“What is it, Ayanokouji? You suddenly shouted. Is this your rebellious age?”
“N-no. Sorry, Chiyabashira-sensei. Some dust entered my eye…”
Normally, the students would’ve started whispering, but they stayed quiet and sent me glances instead, still being wary of the points. Rubbing the sore part of my arm, I glared at my neighbor. In my line of sight, I saw Horikita holding a compass needle in her hand.
