After a brief bout of crying, Horikita Suzune calmed down.
"Thank you, Brother." Horikita Suzune thanked him again. "When are you planning to leave the school?"
"Because of a few things, I'm expecting to leave at noon on the thirty-first. I'll be taking the twelve-thirty bus."
"Okay. I'll come see you off."
Meanwhile, so as not to disturb the Horikita siblings' emotional reunion, Kamio Tatsuya had left early and gone to wait near the school gate for Shiina.
However, before Shiina showed up, an unwelcome guest arrived instead.
"Waiting for someone, Kamio?"
The person who came to greet him was the school's Acting Chairman, Tsukishiro. To be honest, Kamio Tatsuya had no desire to respond.
"Is there something you need, Acting Chairman?"
"Kamio, you not only completed a Class Transfer in a single semester, you also led Class C up a class in just one year. It's an unprecedented feat in the several decades since this school was founded."
Tsukishiro smiled as he watched Kamio Tatsuya, showering him with praise.
Kamio Tatsuya didn't think he was actually praising him, though.
"Still, I never expected the most outstanding First Year in the school's history to install a listening device in the Student Council Office."
Heh. So he'd found it after all.
During the previous Class Vote, it was perfectly normal for Kamio Tatsuya to receive Protection Points. But for Ayanokoji to receive Protection Points from Class D was highly unusual.
As the Acting Chairman, Tsukishiro could easily see what was going on throughout the school. There was no way Kamio Tatsuya's Contract with Class D had escaped his notice. The general voting situation during that exam was no exception.
Ayanokoji wasn't particularly popular in Class D. Under normal circumstances, it was clear he couldn't have received all thirty-five Appreciation Votes
