[ They have magic bone crushing security but ngl there's some draw in getting to be somewhere else while still keeping an eye on their shop, and then [redacted] happens and they're never going to leave their shop again actually. ]

Oh. Is he smart or is he dumb? You have to be smart to hack into things... why is he failing?

[commences]

You can excel in one thing, and fail in another...

( that's why shin's good at computers, but he's severely lacking when it comes to his grades. he chuckles at the thought, remembering in robotics that he was one of the people who worked into making a new computer with senku... he thinks. well, he found the floppy disks that hard porn, too. )

History has nothing to do with data! So that's probably why, do you want to enlist him as one of your indentured servants?

[adsum]

[ ? Sounds fake, because they're the best at everything ]

...I guess he would be good at getting pity sales. [ npckun gets those a lot, all the times they manage to sell a rock, so it's still a sizeable portion of their income ]

I'll write that into the contract. "Pay one hundred million yen* and you'll get your clothes back AND I'll make sure you pass your classes."
*or indentured servitude until graduation day

[commences]

You're really good at contracts, is this how the one you have with the school goes?

( he's a little curious, and while it's only something they talked about once, they should at least make it the same as that one. that way, shin can't squirm his way out. )

This offer should be given to all the third years... but then they'd fight for your attention.

[adsum]

No.

[ That's their answer to both of those questions. ]

If I open the offer to up all third years, there's no stopping one student from taking the study guide and offering it to another for a lower price, undermining our efforts.

[commences]

You can give them a few pages, but not all of them... and then they'd want the version that has more and more, depending on how high they're willing spend, the better the notes.

( say if npckun made a worse rough draft, they could sell it for a penny, or maybe two of them if that's all the people have. )

Though... All they have is merits, so how would we make a suitable contract... it'd be easier if they actually had money.

[adsum]

[ Why is their essay worth only a penny ]

No, other students have money. Most of what I receive at the store is in cash. Using merit points is a rip-off.

[commences]

( no a worse version of the one that they made, like it's in riddles. )

Oh, how do they obtain cash if we can't work... I have merit points, but... the big amount only comes from killing.

( what about that shop on the pda, where did that g — )

[adsum]

I don't know. From their families, I guess. Maybe side jobs.

[ Maybe they sell crack in the back alleys, whatever it takes to fun their local student store, it really isn't any of their business. ...They think that, although they still glance down and look a little uneasy at being rewarded points for killing. Ugh, they're really taking blood money as payment, huh.

... ]

Do you have a lot of points?
