Kikyo: Oh no, they're coming for me! 7.!

Nakano Yuu said to Karuizawa and the others.

"You... you just went back like that?"

Sakura seemed to want to say something but held back, and then there was a hint of disappointment in her expression.

Yes, that's right.

Nakano glanced at Sakura honestly.

Yes, it's a pity, Sakura.

Every outpost on this island is equipped with cameras, so even if he just wants to take some nature photos of her or take her out for a stroll to spend time with her, it could turn into a public execution.

Then, Nakano Yuu also discovered that Ichinose and Ichinose might have a relationship beyond friendship, and that she might actually be his girlfriend. So, under these circumstances, he decided to play it safe.

Therefore, I don't intend to further escalate the suspicion of infidelity.

Therefore, we have no choice but to send Sakura away first.

"Then let's go back."

Karuizawa said.

"Um."

Nakano Yuu nodded.

Then, as Karuizawa turned her head, Nakano Yuu suddenly called out to her.

"Karuizawa —can I shake your hand?"

Karuizawa found him strange, but it was just a handshake. Although it was a bit odd, everyone's relationship had become more harmonious over the past few days, so it wasn't too awkward.

So she extended her hand, and Nakano Yuu quickly shook it off.

So the girls left together in a small boat from this side of the beach.

But when logging into the small boat...

"Karuizawa, Nakano-kun shook your hand just now, he probably slipped some kind of note into your palm, didn't he?"

Matsushita suddenly said.

"This..."

Karuizawa actually wanted to keep it a secret, but she also felt that Nakano Yuu was being a bit too blatant.

Because who would shake hands with her so directly in front of everyone, and only with her and not with other girls? It just seems very strange.

However, she did feel something being stuffed into her palm when they shook hands.

However, as I said before, if you have a message to convey, then don't do something like this in public that would attract attention.

Or perhaps... he actually wanted the Gal Group to know.

Thinking this way.

Karuizawa loosened his grip on his left hand, opened it, and there was indeed a note on it.

[Although there are only students from Class D on the ship, please take care of Sakura and make sure she isn't bullied.]

As expected.

This guy.

"Oh ho."

The girls all looked at the note and quickly understood.

This is something Nakano-kun hopes they can help look after Sakura.

Given Sakura's timid and weak personality, it would indeed be worrying if she returned to the ship like this.

But.

Isn't Horikita's destined love interest? How come it's Sakura now? Turns out Nakano-kun is actually a womanizer?

That's terrible.

Nakano-kun, unaware that he had already been labeled a scumbag in the eyes of the gyaru (female fans of gyaru), said that although he had sent these "tools" away, he wanted to continue his life of survival on the island.

There's not much to say about that.

Because he hasn't done anything yet.

Thus, the irrelevant personnel were seen off.

"... Sizzle."

That evening, the remaining four students from Class D gathered around the small fire to tend the flames.

The hot girls, who had been working picking fruit for several days, were naturally exhausted and needed to return to the boat to rest. However, Hirata couldn't leave, and now Hirata was going to take a shower.

That leaves 3 students from Class D.

Nakano Yuu gently poked at the glowing firewood pile with a stick. Kushida was on his left, and Horikita Suzune was on his right.

It's fair to say the atmosphere is quite good.

"Then."

"Nakano Yuu said."

"Kushida, who's the traitor in Class D? To be precise, these three days should have been enough for you to notice that one student seemed off. And then you had a heart-to-heart talk with her, right?"

"..."

Kushida.

Horikita Suzune, who was originally quiet and calm, now has a sharper gaze.

She felt that Nakano Yuu wouldn't be interacting with so many students for no reason.

If you just need people to do the work, you can just hire students from Class B. Besides, the supplies originally belonged to Class B, Nakano Yuu will also share some of the profits with the students from Class B. So you can just hire students from Class B to do the work, instead of having to use the Class D Gal Group.

Result.

Were these students kept behind to investigate who the mole was?

She obtained information about who the mole was from a letter she found in her mailbox and then passed it on to Nakano Yuu.

So, is there really a mole in Class D?

"It's Matsushita."

Kushida said.

"She seemed a little uneasy, or perhaps she was saying it to me on purpose because she felt you were already doubting her."

"So, let's just say we've come to surrender."

If someone is desperate about Class D and wants to gain some points, then it's perfectly normal for them to accept Sakayanagi's offer.

Or rather, this is the thinking of Akito.

But.

Matsushita is an Akito. He realized that Nakano is so good at making money. So, if he could get money simply by joining Nakano's group to earn living expenses, wouldn't he have no need to betray the class?

After all, no one would willingly become a traitor to their class.

Therefore, Matsushita was very pragmatic; they immediately surrendered and switched sides.

However, this was not the case for Kushida.

"So Nakano Yuu deliberately kept me here, just to have me identify spies. That guy really knows how to order people around."

Inwardly, however, Kushida was grumbling with dissatisfaction.

[If only that were the case.]

And this is how Amasawa, her junior, replied to her.

[Kushida- senpai, don't you find it strange? Why would Nakano-senpai ask you something like that in front of Horikita-senpai?]

Oh?

Yes.

Why say that in front of Horikita? Doesn't that expose her Nakano Yuu chores in class?

Or perhaps, he actually wanted Horikita to think that way, to make Horikita feel like she was doing work for him.

But why create the impression that their relationship is completely innocent, or that they are merely collaborators?

Could it be that this guy... damn it, is planning something?

Has this guy gone mad? There are security cameras at the base, you know.

And this conjecture soon became a reality.

"When the news broke that Class B had cleared all the outposts, Class A's teacher said that there were a total of 20 outposts on this island, plus one hidden outpost."

"Since it's a hidden location, you can think of it as an Easter egg. Finding it might give you extra points, and a significant amount at that."

"Nakano Yuu said."

"And I suspect that this hidden base is very likely the residence of the island's administrator."

"The island is rich in resources, but they can't be wild; they must be managed and cared for by someone."

"Therefore, I speculate that the hidden outpost is very likely the hidden reward after the true nature of this island has been identified."

"Of course, if you find this location, you can use it to farm resources for your own class, but my suggestion is that since you've already sold everything you could in this exam, you should sell it to other classes instead."

Nakano suggested.

Neither Horikita nor Kushida rejected this claim.

Horikita has been living in a group for the past few days. Although she has done what Nakano Yuu asked her to do, she still feels that she is not quite used to this kind of group life.

After all, she usually keeps to herself.

Now, Nakano Yuu is about to raise 20 million, while she is still far from doing so. Moreover, the sale of class base points is based on class points, so she hasn't actually earned many points yet.

Kushida had no objections whatsoever; she still intended to buy all the Okamoto 001 at the school in the worst-case scenario.

But buying so many requires money.

After the exam, Nakano Yuu will need to pay her 600,000 points. Although it's 600,000, she feels it's still not enough.

So she had no objection to continuing to earn some points.

So, that afternoon, Nakano extended an invitation to Horikita Kushida.

In other words, the three of them went together to find that hidden hideout.

According to Mashima- sensei, it would take Katsuragi and his group more than an hour to find it, so the hidden base must be more than four or five kilometers away from the beach.

Hard work pays off.

As evening approached, Horikita Suzune, who had some camping experience, finally found them.

After finding this hidden hideout, Nakano immediately suggested that Horikita keep watch while Kushida and he went down to take a look.

Oh, I see.

Kushida understood.

Oh shit.

P. S.: 12,500 words today, 8,500 words to pay off debts, and still owes 207,500 words for the old book Oregairu's Classroom of the Elite.

Chapter 77 Kikyo: Oh no, it's coming for me! 7.!

According to the information provided by Nakano Yuu, since it's a hidden base, it's basically used to give out Easter eggs to the students. Finding it is a bonus.

Then, the information revealed by Mr. Mashima was that one hour was not enough time to search, which meant that the hidden location was quite far from the beach.

Thus, the three split up and searched in different directions, finally finding their destination at dusk.

In the center of the island stands a White Tower.

It seemed to be the only building on the island.
