Ichinose answered the question without the slightest hesitation.
"Because this whole thing has reached a stalemate since someone lied, right? I just don't want the liar to win. If we let this crooked trend take root, this school will descend into chaos."
What a lofty wish—to keep liars from winning.
In reality, Class B's students just weren't good at lying.
It was a shame, but in this school, in society, and even in the world at large, people who knew how to lie often had an easier time of it.
Kamio Tatsuya had no intention of dismissing Ichinose's idea. It was beautiful and noble, wasn't it?

"I know that, of course. Oh, by the way, would you mind exchanging contact information? I'll let you know if there are any developments."

After saying goodbye, Ichinose went to find Hoshinomiya-sensei, the teacher in charge of the school infirmary.
Ishizaki and the others had probably gone to see her to get their injuries bandaged.
After Ichinose left, Kamio Tatsuya immediately messaged Miyabi Nagumo, politely and tactfully explaining that he wasn't interested
