"Someone's coming!"
The loud shout instantly silenced the entire Class D camp, and every other sound vanished.
"That's..."
Hirata Yosuke and Kushida Kikyo both looked up in surprise.
Some of the students who recognized the newcomers froze on the spot as well.
Fang Li likewise turned his gaze toward the only direction leading to this camp—the forest.
There, a man and a woman emerged one after the other from a path through the woods. Upon seeing everyone gathered beneath the shade of the trees for lunch, they immediately approached.
"Hello, everyone."
The one greeting them all in a bright voice was Ichinose Honami.
Dressed in sportswear, her gorgeous waist-length hair remained perfectly neat despite the long journey. Her curvy figure was not hidden by her loose athletic clothes in the slightest, fully displaying the beauty and grace of Class B's leader. On the second day of the Special Exam, she had arrived at Class D's camp.
"Sorry to disturb you."
Following behind Ichinose Honami was Class B's vice leader, Kanzaki Ryuji. He was similarly dressed in sportswear, held a guidebook in one hand, and bowed his head politely in a calm, humble manner.
The two central figures of Class B had come here together.
Every student in Class D immediately stopped eating and looked over.
Especially Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Horikita Suzune.
"So Class B finally came over?"
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka fell into thought.
"She's Ichinose from Class B?"
Horikita Suzune quickly examined Ichinose Honami, apparently aware of her standing within Class B.
As for everyone else, whether they knew who the visitors were or not, they all had the same reaction.
They were surprised and wary of Class B's arrival.
Only Hirata Yosuke and Kushida Kikyo stood up together and warmly welcomed Ichinose Honami and Kanzaki Ryuji.
"Welcome, Ichinose, and Kanzaki."
