She didn't think that if Nakano wanted to find a new girlfriend, he would choose a timid and obedient pet type like Sakura, but her feelings were indeed somewhat complicated.

As expected of Nakano-kun.

Although he only brought some students to Class B, it's estimated that at least four of them have a special relationship with him.

Is it that he's popular, or that he hasn't changed his nature?

"Ma, can I take this as an invitation from you?"

At this moment, Nakano Yuu didn't pay attention to the expressions of the girls he brought with him. Otherwise, he would have realized that everyone had been seen naked and couldn't withstand any more probing, unlike him, who could dodge Chabashira-sensei's probing time and time again, Nakano Yuu said.

"Class B is indeed a good place. After all, after this exam, you'll most likely be in Class A."

This is not wishful thinking. The current gap between Class B is only about 100 points, and Class B occupies most of the strongholds. Although Class A and Class C have each taken back one stronghold, there are still 18 strongholds left. Even if Ryuuen and Katsuragi are dissatisfied, they can only take back 1-2 strongholds at most. So, based on the calculation that they can completely occupy 15 strongholds on average, they can get a minimum of 270 stronghold points.

Then, based on how economically they spend their base points in Class B, they'll probably only need to spend 60-70 base points in the end.

Therefore, as long as you can save more than 200 base points.

Even if they maintain this level of performance, they will still be able to completely defeat Class C, and ultimately surpass Class A entirely.

So, could we interpret Ichinose's invitation as an invitation for Nakano to join the new Class A? The question is, who wouldn't want to be in Class A?

Therefore, there's nothing wrong with Nakano Yuu's answer.

"Oh."

However, Ichinose nodded slightly, seemingly accepting the answer.

No. You were the one who asked the question, but you acted as if you didn't care at all about his answer.

Nakano-kun finally realized something was wrong, and when he looked up, he noticed the expressions on the women's faces. Ichinose, looked thoughtful.

"..."

Clearly, Horikita, Karuizawa, Kushida, and Sakura have just been tested by Ichinose, and Ichinose already knows what's going on.

Good heavens.

Nakano was heartbroken, saying, "You guys are really no good."

He was also a little nervous, after all, Ichinose was a bit too fierce.

This is a different feeling than when he's with his ex-girlfriend. If he feels that Sakayanagi knows he's also at this school, then Sakayanagi might retaliate against him and cause him some trouble.

Therefore, he was able to anticipate the danger posed by Sakayanagi and make arrangements accordingly. Then, like this time, when Sakayanagi tried to cause trouble, the mole, Kamuro, issued a direct warning.

Nakano-kun was quite adept at handling things. He was even able to assist Kamuro in his performance to help her gain Sakayanagi's trust.

However, Nakano Yuu noticed that he felt a different way when facing Ichinose.

In the original work Ichinose is an intelligent and gentle girl with kindness and a sense of justice, but she also has an unforgettable past. She did bad things and stole things in the past, and she has flaws. But it is undeniable that no one is perfect. If Ichinose can get over her past, she will be even more charming.

But now, Ichinose gives Nakano a very subtle feeling.

It wasn't that he meant her any harm; on the contrary, she could sense his goodwill towards her. Even when he asked her to discuss selling the base, she actually had the courage to accept his terms.

According to his deduction, if the original work remains unchanged, then she is a saintly figure who is no less than Hirata.

Therefore, Class B, which lacks decisiveness and constantly loses opportunities for promotion in order to protect its classmates, is the weakest Class B.

However, after discussion, they found that it was different. This Ichinose Honami was not only very big and beautiful, but also very charismatic.

Of course, that doesn't mean she's not a saint; she still prioritizes protecting her classmates. But she also possesses the judgment, leadership, and decisiveness of a representative of the class.

If Nakano Yuu had previously felt that Class B's performance was somewhat different from the original story, as if they had received a buff, then now he knows where that buff lies: it's in Ichinose Honami.

She was given the "decisive" effect.

Why is she different from the original character? Is it because of him?

Nakano Yuu thought it was very likely; he had lost a year's worth of memories, but Ichinose was very familiar with him.

It should be said that her ability to make such a probe likely stems from a very deep understanding of him.

This reminded Nakano Yuu of the Matoba on the ship, when Kamuro up. Although it was arranged by Sakayanagi, unexpected people appeared at the meeting Matoba – two students from Class B. One of the members of Class B was Ichinose Honami.

At the time, Nakano Yuu also wanted to take this opportunity to establish his relationship with Ichinose.

Ichinose gave him a very familiar feeling.

So what was their relationship before? Friends? Close confidants? Or lovers?

So, Nakano, who arrived early, chose a spot where he could see Ichinose Honami's expression from Class B. Therefore, when he said that Sakayanagi was his ex-girlfriend, or made statements to sway Kamuro, it seemed like he was discussing something with Kamuro, but in reality, his purpose was to test the relationship Ichinose and himself.

The conclusion reached was terrifying.

She wasn't moved.

She wouldn't even be moved by his statement that Sakayanagi was his ex-girlfriend.

Either she already knew about this news, or she didn't care about it.

The above content, combined with today's insights.

Nakano Yuu discovered that he had come to an absurd conclusion: Ichinose Honami might know him better than his ex-girlfriend Sakayanagi Arisu.

Even Ichinose's relationship with him should be above that of Sakayanagi.

If that's the case, then Classmate Sakayanagi, you're really useless.

With a soft sigh in his heart, Nakano quickly began to consider the Matoba before him.

If we apply this premise, then Ichinose's current actions... well, they become very straightforward, because they have a special relationship with him.

This made Nakano start to doubt the reason for her breakup with Classmate Sakayanagi.

I initially thought it was because Classmate Sakayanagi's health wasn't good, so as a [protective measure], we had no choice but to break up.

But now it seems like Classmate Sakayanagi is the third party.

And.

If we consider the possibility that Ichinose Honami might actually be his real girlfriend, then Ichinose's question just now becomes quite interesting.

This is a check-up.

Then.

Kushida, Horikita, Sakura, Karuizawa —weren't they all found out?

Danger!

Then.

"My classmate Hirata might also be a good fit for the atmosphere of Class B."

Nakano quickly changed the subject. Hirata who was known as "Hirata's Mom" in Class D and had a good reputation in other classes as well.

Hirata- kun?

Yes.

When the students from Class B offered to help, Hirata also volunteered to join them in setting up the tent.

The fact that Hirata was able to work with the students in Class B so quickly gave the impression that he might have actually been assigned to the wrong class.

He's probably best suited for Class B rather than Class D.

Perhaps because of this little incident, everyone lost some of their leisure time and resumed their normal island life.

Nakano Yuu and the others were also assigned accommodations. There were a total of 50 students, divided into 8 tents, with an average of 6 people per tent, and then two additional tents with 7 people each.

He seemed very relaxed.

Dinner consisted of stir-fried vegetables and stewed corn, made with locally sourced ingredients. The student in charge of cooking wasn't very skilled; I can only say my future husband is probably having a tough time. However, the corn was much better than what I'd get in the cafeteria. I guess it was because the ingredients were fresh; just boiling it made it irresistible to eat two extra ears.

When it came time to light the fire at night, since they were outsiders, Nakano Yuu and the others gave up their right to take a bath first to the students in Class B.

They lit a fire in the empty area and gathered around it.

Then.

"I know that most of the students have abstained, so as long as Hirata stays, it will be fine."

"After all, he's the leader of Class D. Ryuen paid 2 million to have him as the leader."

"However, other students, such as Shinohara, Matsushita, Sato, Hasebe, and Kushida, do not need to stay."

Nakano Yuu explained the true meaning behind asking them to stay.

Oh.

The other students began to listen attentively.

76

Chapter 76 Nakano Yuu: Kushida, let's go down together later! Kushida:?

The other students began to listen attentively.

With 40 students in Class D now having their basic score reduced to zero (300 points), no matter how many students abstain, no further points will be deducted.

Aside from Hirata, who is necessary to stay as the leader of Class D, the other students do not need to stay.

Furthermore, the situation regarding the remaining student members is also quite complex.

Apart from Hirata and Nakano, the other eight are all girls.

So, there are only 20 girls in Class D, and you just kept 8 of them? What do you mean by that?

It's easy for people to misunderstand, like Hasebe. Although she was called away to stay, she stared at Nakano with a scrutinizing gaze several times on the way there.

"Just like what you see in this vegetable garden today."

Nakano-kun said.

"As Ichinose described, the numerous strongholds occupied by Class B contain a considerable amount of fruits and vegetables, and even some freshwater, river, and seafood resources."

"While that might be a bit of an exaggeration, since the school brought us to the island and allowed us to use the resources at the base as we see fit, how those resources are used is entirely up to the students."

"Nakano Yuu said."

"You mean?"

Hirata, however, had no ulterior motives; he had already begun to understand some things.

"Yes, I have reached an agreement with Class B."

"Nakano Yuu said."

"I applied to the school, and if they approve, I'll sell the surplus resources from this island camping trip. The inspiration for this came from the idea of recycling items from the free cabin service on the ship at low prices."

"So if this deal goes through, we'll need some manpower to pick the fruit. Hiring students is definitely cheaper than hiring staff, and since we're all students in Class D, I want to give other Class D students some opportunities to earn points."

"That's what Nakano said sincerely."

Oh.

I see.

The girls realized that Nakano-kun had asked them to stay... so they could work part-time?

The members of the Gal Team are Karuizawa, Matsushita Chiaki, Sato Maya, and Shinohara Satsuki.

The four students looked at each other, probably surprised that Nakano had chosen to let them stay and work.

"Of course, if you don't wish to, you can choose to abstain and return to the ship."

"However, after I had this idea, I entrusted Horikita- san with the task of arranging the personnel, and Horikita recommended Kushida."

"Nakano Yuu said."

"..."

Horikita.

Horikita remained silent.

"..."

Kushida didn't want to talk Kushida.

Kushida knew perfectly well that Nakano Yuu was lying and Horikita wouldn't do such a thing, so he was just helping Horikita out again.

"And Hasebe- kun, you were recommended by Sakura."
