"Good news! Good news!"

"What good news?"

"We have a P.E. class this afternoon!"

"So what if we have P.E.?"

"The P.E. class is at the swimming pool!"

"Nani? Is that for real?"

"Absolutely real, the homeroom teacher said so herself!"

Suddenly, everyone was uncontrollably excited, especially the boys; they might as well have had "I'm a pervert" written on their faces!

Zhuge Linghao naturally couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart either. He was the first to rush out of the classroom, and by the time the other boys arrived at the locker room, he was already wearing a pair of flashy pink swimming trunks.

It was now free time, and the small cliques in the class began to operate on their own.

"That one is a D-cup, this one is an A, I don't think that's very good."

"Take a closer look, holy crap, is that an E or an F? What kind of meat mountain is that? They haven't taken their clothes off yet, I can't see clearly!"

"Impressive, truly impressive! Everywhere I look, it's a sea of B's and C's, what a feast for the eyes!"

Zhuge Linghao's face was flushed pink. While pointing and commenting on the young, beautiful girls in the pool, he was also happily discussing female human anatomy with Ayanokoji.

"Ah, paradise! The profusion of flowers is dazzling to the eyes, it's truly so beautiful!"

"What's beautiful?" Horikita Suzune's bone-chilling, icy voice pierced through his eardrums.

"I was talking about... Oranges!"

"Good grief, Suzune-chan, when did you get here? You scared the life out of me!"

"You came at the perfect time, I was just practicing my English! A-B-C-D-E-F-G, do I look like a little idiot to you?"

Zhuge Linghao guiltily shrank his head, trying his best to ignore Horikita Suzune's increasingly icy gaze.

After a long while, Horikita Suzune spoke up: "They really are thick-skinned. They were just scolded harshly by the homeroom teacher, and they bombed the quiz."

"As expected of the trashiest rejects, they don't understand the S System at all!"

Ayanokoji chimed in: "Maybe they're just trying to relieve some stress?"

Zhuge Linghao had a flash of inspiration: "Suzune, you want to help the class earn class points, right?"

Horikita Suzune replied: "You guessed correctly for once. I do indeed have that thought."

Ayanokoji was expressionless: "As long as each of us changes our attitude toward studying and our daily habits, and scores high on the next midterm exam, we should be able to earn class points, right?"

Zhuge Linghao sighed gloomily: "That means the past month might have been the most relaxed and happy time we'll ever have, like a beautiful dream?"

Ayanokoji remained expressionless: "That's right, our school's advancement and employment rate is almost 100%!"

Horikita Suzune closed her eyes in thought, imitating Chabashira's tone, and said in a hoarse, low voice: "It seems we have no choice but to move up a class. There is no future in staying in Class D."

After a long silence, Horikita Suzune's gaze first scanned the simple-lined Zhuge Linghao, giving a reliable evaluation: Weakling. Scrawny. Stick.

Then her gaze shifted to Ayanokoji's well-built upper body, and she asked suspiciously: "Ayanokoji, what sports have you practiced before?"

Ayanokoji looked blank: "None, I was in the Going-Home Club in middle school!"

Zhuge Linghao stumbled, nearly laughing himself into a six-pack.

Ayanokoji, you have to make up something realistic! You were in the Going-Home Club? As far as I know, everyone in the Going-Home Club is just a fat otaku who loves 2D stuff!

Also, what's wrong with simple lines? Everyone, don't laugh! Think about Saitama-sensei!

The shorter the hair, the stronger the power; no hair, god-tier power!

By that logic, the simpler the lines, the more it's a symbol of a powerhouse!

Just as Zhuge Linghao was sinking into deep self-hypnosis, Kushida Kikyo leaped out of the water like a mermaid by the poolside.

She waved at Horikita and invited her: "Horikita-san, if you don't mind, come swim with us!"

Horikita Suzune's face turned gloomy; she didn't want to acknowledge the person who spoke and looked elsewhere.

Oh my, the instigation from last time didn't make you fall apart completely. It seems the intensity wasn't enough!

Kushida Kikyo refused to give up and continued to steer the conversation: "Could it be that Horikita-san doesn't know how to swim? I can teach you~"

The gaze shifted, but Horikita Suzune still had a sour look on her face, the meaning of her refusal obvious.

Back to this side, Kushida Kikyo made herself look as gentle and polite as possible.

She said gently and considerately: "I didn't know how to swim in middle school either, but I learned it by giving it my all!"

This time, Horikita Suzune replied coldly: "Is that so? That's truly wonderful."

Then, without leaving another word of nonsense, she turned and walked away without the slightest hesitation!

Kushida Kikyo, who had climbed onto the shore, held her chest with one hand and said with a troubled heart: "I still really want to be friends with her!"

Zhuge Linghao couldn't help but retort: [Give it a rest, are you two trying to get all lovey-dovey?]

Kushida Kikyo didn't chase after them, instead turning her gaze toward Zhuge Linghao.

"Um, Zhuge-kun, can we be good friends?"

Hearing this, Zhuge Linghao flashed a wide smile, his voice sounding incredibly gentle, bright, and cheerful.

"No!"
