A Spy's Been Exposed? No, This Is a Chance to Win Over Class B's Little Angel! (Continued)

"Then 50,000 it is," Oreki said. "Let me tell you some good news."

Oreki said, "There are two special exams this month, and the second one will be either tonight or tomorrow."

"..." Ryuuen.

???

In other words, before returning to school and before Class B's students reported him to the Student Council and got points deducted, there was still one more exam?

If that was the case.

So telling Ryuuen the news was merely a way to bluff him into leaving.

Oreki looked at Horikita Suzune.

Horikita still seemed to be spacing out.

And Oreki himself was actually a little distracted as well.

He did not know what Horikita was
