Chapter 17: [Classification Test]
Chapter 17: [Classification Test]
The closing ceremony was over without incident, and I was on my way home.
It would be a month before I next went back to school.
My report card was pretty good if I do say so myself.
Now I can do it without any worries.
"It's summer vacatioioon!"
>Summer vacation?
>What language is that?
>I didn't know such a thing existed in the world.
"Yeah, you corporate nii-chans don't have summer vacation!!!"
>I want to punch this kusogaki! wwww
>There are all kinds of things that happen to working people.
>AAah, the channel subscribers count went down, didn't it?
"I-I'm sorry. Seriously, be careful not to damage your body. I'm rooting for everyone who is working during the summer vacation."
In my previous life, I was a company employee.
I understand how they feel. I think working people don't get much time off.
I don't know how many years it has been since I had such a long vacation.
That's why I was so excited.
>So, do you want to stream song slots?
>Sell work-supporting voices?
>More teasing?
"You're an adult, and you can't even take a break? Even elementary school students can do it! Wow, what a shame~! Lo~ser, lo~ser!"
>Hey, idiot stop it!www
>Why did you pick up that comment?www
>Mesugaki move. Thank you!
"Well, I'm saying this, but I'm also starting summer school tomorrow."
>Oh.
>Don't be so calm all of a sudden!
>There is no summer vacation for students who are taking exams.
"I haven't decided yet that I'm going to take the exam. I mean, with summer vacation homework, and summer classes. Maybe I'll be busier than when I was in school? The only thing that will save me is that the time limit for watching MyTube will be relaxed."
>I guess you've noticed.
>You've got to study.
>Oh, so you have summer homework, too?
"That's right. I'm sure there are many troublesome homework assignments for elementary school students during the summer vacation. Anyway, I think I'll finish my diary today."
>Why are you trying to finish your diary on the first day?
>You're just trying to make something up.
>What's the point of a diary if you don't write every day?
"You can just pull last year's diary and copy it. …… Oh, good boy… don't copy it!"
>Wow!
>Isn't it better than writing all at once on the last day?
>You're going to summer classes this year, so there's a contradiction lol
"Everyone writes a diary every day, okay? This is very important homework to make a habit of and to understand the importance of continuity and the preciousness of time each day. Everyone who is a good adult ・・・・ should also write a daily journal every day."
>Her reasoning is weird. ww
>I see. I didn't realize that.
>Sorry, I couldn't speak for others either.
"What's going to take more time? Free research or something?"
>I'm curious about Iroha's free study.
>It's related to VTuber anyway
>"Let's do some research together-nee☆"
>!?!?!?
>Anego?
>I love Anegoooo!
"Wait, no way. Ah-nee?"
>Is this some collabs?
>I've seen this line of thinking before. wwww
>Don't force everyone to collabs. www
"I just received a message behind the scenes as well. So I will do free research on the stream. It will probably be a collaborative project. Since Ah-nee can't stop this from happening."
>LOL
>As an elementary school student, she seems to be a hard worker. wwww
>Ah-nee, you need to grow up more. wwww
"More details will be announced on Twitter and the streams as soon as the project details are finalized. So please look forward to it~."
>I'll be waiting for it.
>I can't predict what Ah-nee's going to do.
>"I'm looking forward to it-nee☆"
With that, she left the chats.
As usual, she is too light on her feet! And too forceful! But I was saved by that part of her.
I'm not very good at planning projects, so I tend to deliver more chit-chat.
So this kind of invitation is her way of following up with me, as I am still in my infancy as a streamer. I want to think it's a follow-up. I hope it's a follow-up!
I'm not a typhoon woman who stirs things up and then leaves with great satisfaction, am I?
I switched my thoughts to wishful thinking and returned to the main topic.
"Oh, by the way, there was one more troublesome homework. Kanji drills."
>Wow, that's nostalgic!
>I hated the dictation of kanji characters.
>Iroha-chan, are you okay with writing Kanji characters over and over again?
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
>I heard gifted people are so bad at repetitive learning (not figuratively) that they throw up.
>I've heard they even collapse from stress and are rushed to the hospital.
>Really?
"Really?"
Even I had the same reaction as chats.
I heard that "gifted" gives an image of being blessed with talent, but I didn't know there was such a dark side to it.
"I don't find it that hard to write kanji characters. As I said before, I am not gifted. Besides, I move my hands as I watch the video anyway."
>Not gifted (gifted).
>Were you the calm type?
>I'm glad you're okay.
> good for all kinds of diseases.
"Well, I hate it soooo much! I mean, I don't think any kids like that thing."
>That's true. wwww
>I guess you're right. ww
>That's inefficient, isn't it?
"I don't think there's any way around it, though."
Junior high school students and high school students will understand how to study. However, it is necessary to teach elementary school students "how to remember" first.
>But it's a shame you were forced to study inefficiently when they are so smart.
>Japanese-style school education is designed to "eliminate dropouts", so it's no wonder.
>That's why we have a junior high school entrance exam.
>That's what the middle school entrance exams are for.
"I see?"
When you put it that way, it almost makes sense.
Except for the one point that I am not gifted, but an ordinary person.
That's the point, after all.
I know I am not a genius. But I can't prove it to the people around me.

So the next day I was visiting an exam-cram school with my mother.
"Heeahh, it's big~."
"Lelelet's go."
"Ha-ha-ha, your mother is too nervous."
Well, I don't know how she felt.
The building was so huge that I wanted to call it an exam-cram school, or rather, an exam building. I was surprised to learn that the entire building was a cram school.
Once inside, they have shown me an empty room.
She told me that I wouldn't take a class today, but to prepare for it.
First, I had to take a test to enter the school.
I was left alone in the room. While I was taking the test, my mother was probably in a separate room. She's being briefed on the school's system and monthly fees.
"Wow, it's really hard!
I say that as I solve questions.
I don't have much hope for the results. As someone who had already solved past tests, to some extent, I was prepared.
All tests were impossible to solve with only perfect elementary school lessons.
I was able to get through English, though.
The mothers came back to the room.
They told me that the test results would be used to determine my class placement for each course.
I didn't know this until they explained it to me. But it seems that there are specialized courses for each difficult-to-enter junior high school, courses to acquire the general knowledge necessary to pass the junior high school entrance exam, and courses to review all the content of the elementary school classes.
She said some courses were divided into several classes because of the large number of students in each course.
"Which one do you prefer?"
"Well, I'm going to take a general course."
Well, I'm not aiming for a difficult middle school, and I've already taken the general course at school! For me, in the second round of elementary school, a regular class is like a review.
So it was a process of elimination.
* * *
The next day, I received a phone call from the cram school.
It seemed to be a notification of the result of my class placement.
My mother had not come home from work yet, so I took the call.
I knew my talent. So I'm sure I'll be at the bottom of the class.
[–Would you like to be a special student at our school?]
"Yes?????????"
