The Cute Yandere Next to Me-Chapter 55 New School New Life - Part 2
I took a seat on one of the beds.
I guess it would be a little while before all the students managed to get to their dorms. The entire process seemed to be a bit disorganised, especially due to the big horde of students which they appeared to have not prepared for.
There were two beds in my room, which meant that I'd likely be living with a roommate now.
I decided to have a quick look at the Bank app.

I guess 'points' was the currency here. They'd probably give us our allowance soon enough, although I am curious as to the value and how much everyone will get. Even with decent government funding, it wasn't like they could really afford to pay each student hundreds or thousands of dollars each month.
A few minutes later, another boy entered my room.
"Oh, you're already in here."
"Yeah."
"You're Mizuhara, aren't you?"
"Yep, and you're Kimura, I remember you playing beach soccer."
"Haha, same here."
He walked over to the other bed and took a seat. He looked quite fit—well, as far as I could tell, I assumed that he either did training or at least played quite a lot of sports. He was also quite popular with the girls when we were playing beach soccer. I guess I'd describe him as a jock.
We looked around silently before he decided to speak once again.
"What do you think of this new system?" He asked.
"I'm not sure. It seems interesting."
"Ah, I'm pretty excited about the whole thing."
"Really?"
"Yeah, school was starting to get pretty mundane. This system sounds fun."
All of a sudden, there was a notification on both of our phones.

National High School
Hopefully, everyone has found their allocated rooms. If you still have not, please notify a teacher.
In the next twenty minutes, staff will go around to each room and hand you your basic supplies. Please answer the door when they knock.

"Looks like we'll be getting some goodies," commented Kimura.
"Yeah."
As expected, there was a knock on our door, and Kimura made his way over.
"I've got items for Mizuhara Ayato and Kimura Haruto."
"Yep, that's us."
"Alright."
The worker ticked our names off on his clipboard and handed Kimura two boxes.
He brought them over and plopped them onto the ground. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚
I wonder what the school decided to provide us with.
The two of us opened the boxes and observed the contents.
From what I could see, we were given some hygiene items like toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and so on. There was also a large stack of textbooks and stationery, along with a school bag.
"I guess we'll have to get everything else from the stores."
"It seems so."
I began organising my things until we received another notification from the school.

National High School
If you did not receive a box of supplies, please contact a teacher.
All students, at 10 am, will attend a mandatory exam. It will consist of 100 multiple-choice questions, and the results will determine your class placement at the beginning of the year. The venue is the main hall.
If you do not attend, you will automatically be given a zero.

It seemed that classes were going to be based on merit.
There were around twenty minutes before the designated time for the exam.
I looked over at Kimura, who seemed to be smiling.
"Ah, I've always wanted something like this," he said.
"Oh, I guess you're the competitive type." 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
"Hehe, I suppose you could say that."
"Well, let's get ready to go then."
The two of us finished organising the stuff we got given before we grabbed our stationery and started making our way toward the exam venue. We took the crowded elevator down to the ground floor as a large number of other students were also doing the same thing.
We walked with the group until we were at the entrance of the main hall. The cohort was split into year levels before we slowly entered one by one. I looked around as I entered the hall, it seemed that they had set out desks and chairs for every single student. Almost ten minutes later, the entire cohort was seated in the examination room as the teacher began announcing some of the rules.
"You have 50 minutes to complete the exam. Please write your answers on the answer sheet provided in pencil only. If you do not have a test or an answer sheet in front of you, please raise your hand."
No one raised their hand.
"Alright, anyone caught cheating will immediately receive a zero, and further consequences will be administered. Please write your name on the front cover."
The teacher waited a few seconds.
"Okay, you may begin."
The entire hall was filled with the sound of paper flipping as students frantically began reading and answering the questions. I looked down at the test. There seemed to be a mix of every type of question from maths to English to science to humanities.
I slowly read through the questions, it seemed that the difficulty wasn't very consistent throughout, from questions which could be answered by a middle schooler to questions that you'd see on a third-year's final exam.
After reading through all of the questions, I decided to start answering some of them.

"Time's up, pens down!"
Teachers began walking up and down the hall, picking up the tests from everyone. I had a quick glance at the people beside me. It seemed that they were all quite stressed upon the conclusion of the exam.
"Once your test has been collected, you may return to your dorm rooms. Further instructions will be sent through by the school."
There was a huge ruckus as students all began exiting the main hall. A similar issue before occurred as everyone tried to get to their rooms at the same time. A large number of students were taking the emergency stairs up to their levels since there was such a long line for the overcrowded elevators.
It got to the point where teachers needed to come and take control as students were beginning to push and shove in order to get into the elevator. Eventually, I got in and made my way up to my room.
