Welcome to the Paradise of Freedom

Horikita and the other two walked over to Kiyotaka and spoke.

Kiyotaka simply nodded, then left.

Back in Kiyotaka's room, Kikyo, as if unleashing her true nature, threw herself directly into Kiyotaka's arms. She took a deep breath and said.

"Mmm~ It's the scent of Kiyotaka I haven't smelled for three whole hours."

Horikita saw this and said with exasperation.

"Kikyo, stop messing around. Let's check the exam content first."

Kikyo, however, didn't care at all. She pushed Kiyotaka down, skillfully got to work preparing her snacks, and started munching away noisily. Between bites, she said indistinctly.

"You guys go ahead and look. The exam content's all the same anyway. I'll just listen."

Horikita watched Kikyo's antics and helplessly pressed a hand to her forehead, while Airi's face flushed bright red.

Kiyotaka wasn't surprised by Kikyo's behavior at all. He simply accepted it with a clear conscience and enjoyed himself.

He took out his terminal, opened the message, and checked it.

"Regarding the special exam... All examinees must arrive at the designated room by the specified time. Being more than ten minutes late will result in penalties... Mine's a six o'clock gathering. What about you guys?"

"Mine is eight forty."

Horikita shook her terminal as she spoke.

"Mine is seven."

Airi stared wide-eyed at Kikyo, who was savoring her snacks deliciously, her face bright red as she spoke.

"What about you?"

Kiyotaka grabbed a handful of Kikyo's trembling white flesh and asked.

"Mmm~ How annoying. Mine is six forty."

Kikyo took a moment to pull out her terminal, glanced at it, and said.

"Looks like the times are all different. More trouble's bound to happen, huh."

Kiyotaka genuinely hated troublesome things. Having them come one after another like this really gave him a headache.

"Kiyotaka~ Don't worry about that now... I can't hold back anymore..."

Kikyo's eyes glistened with allure as she pressed herself against Kiyotaka like a snake.

"Kikyo, your stamina is seriously impressive."

Even Horikita, with her composure, couldn't help but sigh as she watched Kikyo at that moment.

Hearing this, Kikyo immediately let go of Kiyotaka, walked over to Horikita, and reached out a hand to probe directly.

"Tsk, Suzune-nee, how about we be honest women? You're practically in need of flood control yourself, so why talk so high and mighty~"

"You! You really are a woman who needs to be put in her place!"

Horikita's defenses were easily shattered by Kikyo's words. Relying on her slightly greater strength, she pinned Kikyo down on the bed and said to Kiyotaka.

"Kiyotaka, teach her a lesson! I've got her held down!"

Kiyotaka was also stunned by the two of them, but watching Kikyo's trembling body, he couldn't hold back.

After all, for Kiyotaka, this was a rare opportunity.

Kikyo let out an unrestrained cry, even making Horikita's face flush red.

Out of the corner of his eye, Kiyotaka saw Airi standing nearby, at a loss, staring at the floor. He directly pulled Airi over, and his sinful claws reached straight for her white softness.

"Ah, why do I have to be bullied by you too, Kiyotaka?"

Airi cried out in surprise while enduring Kiyotaka's torment.

"Suzune, come over here. You don't need to hold her down."

Kiyotaka waved at Horikita, signaling her to come to his free right side.

"Exactly, Suzune-nee, you don't need to hold me down. Even if you tried to chase me away, I probably wouldn't leave..."

Hearing this, Horikita simply let go and walked over to Kiyotaka's right side, enjoying his attention.

"I can't take it anymore, I can't take it!"

Before long, Kikyo was defeated, collapsing limply onto the bed. Kiyotaka directly moved Horikita onto the bed.

He temporarily let the limp Kikyo off the hook, but that made things rough for Horikita and Airi.

Horikita barely managed to withstand Kiyotaka's onslaught.

Meanwhile, Airi's delicate body was already covered in strawberries planted by Kiyotaka's own hands. His occasional sucking made Airi tremble all over.

"Mmm... I can't take it anymore!"

Horikita was naturally the most sensitive among them, so it was unavoidable.

With Horikita's glorious sacrifice, the last victim, Airi, naturally couldn't escape Kiyotaka's grasp.

Under the constant waves of passion, Airi too reached a state of bliss.

At that moment, Kikyo directly shoved the limp Airi aside, stuffed the snack into her mouth in one go, and began churning it rapidly.

This intense sensation caused Kiyotaka to be unable to hold back any longer, and he burst forth explosively.

"Gulp."

After meticulously cleaning up, Kikyo licked her lips with lingering satisfaction.

"Eating alone feels the best."

"Kiyotaka... next time, it's my turn."

For some reason, Airi said this in a pitiful, aggrieved tone.

"Then the time after next is mine!"

Even Horikita, usually reserved and cold, said the same.

Hearing the two of them vying like this, Kikyo stealthily covered her mouth with a chuckle, then playfully winked at Kiyotaka.

"Damn, you've got some nerve, Kikyo. When it comes to scheming, I have to hand it to you."

Kiyotaka thought to himself silently.

Looking at the three of them, now limp and weak, he smiled.

"I'll let you off this time. It's almost time—rest up and get ready for the exam."

"Mmm~"

They responded with a thousand charms, then leaned against each other and fell into a deep sleep.

Kiyotaka glanced at them in surprise, then took a spare blanket from the cabinet, covered the three of them, and lay down on a nearby seat to sleep as well.

"Kiyotaka, wake up. Aren't you supposed to gather at six? You've only got twenty minutes left. Oh, stop groping!"

Airi gently pushed Kiyotaka awake and said.

Kiyotaka rubbed unconsciously, until Airi's voice rang out before he realized why the feel in his hands was so good—it was Airi.

Kiyotaka sat up, tapped Airi on the nose, then got up and put on his clothes as he spoke.

"Airi, you've worked hard. Wake the others up too later. I'll head over first."

"Mm, okay. Don't worry."

Airi gave Kiyotaka a sweet smile, then planted a kiss on his lips and said.

"Mm, Airi's such a good girl."

With that, Kiyotaka walked out of the room and headed toward Room 504 as indicated in the information.

When Kiyotaka arrived at the door, it was already 5:58. He pressed the doorbell.

"Ding-dong."

"Come in."

A stern male voice came from inside.

Kiyotaka opened the door and found the room quite dim, with only a faint glow of light near a large table.

As Kiyotaka approached, he saw three people already seated there.

"Class A's homeroom teacher, Doctor, and Yukimura, huh..."

"So one of the remaining two chairs was for you." A boy pushed up his glasses and looked at Kiyotaka as he spoke. This bookish-looking figure was the one Kiyotaka called Doctor, Hideo Sotomura.

"Things are getting a bit weird, huh."

Another boy with thin, frameless glasses and gray-black hair also spoke. This was Teruhiko Yukimura.

"Yeah, that's right." Kiyotaka casually picked a seat and sat down, saying flatly.

"Ahem. We still need to wait for the last person. Just wait patiently."

At that, Class A's homeroom teacher cleared his throat, crossed his arms, closed his eyes, and said.

The time reached 6:01.

The door opened again.

"Excuse me~"

A female voice rang out. When she walked in and saw the people at the table, she said in surprise.

"Uh, what's this? Why are you all here?"

The person who entered was none other than Hirata's girlfriend, Kei Karuizawa.

"You're late. Hurry up and sit down."

Class A's homeroom teacher opened his eyes and looked at Kei as he spoke.

"Okay~"

When Kei sat down and saw that the person next to her was Kiyotaka, she deliberately scooted her chair a little further away.

"Ah, that kind of reaction makes me a little discouraged. Am I really that unlikeable, that people can't help but want to keep their distance?"

Kiyotaka silently remarked to himself after seeing Karuizawa's reaction.

"Now that everyone's here, I'll begin the explanation of this special exam."

The teacher looked at the four assembled students, cleared her throat, and started the exam briefing.

"This exam will be divided into eight groups based on the planets of the solar system. The exam will be conducted within each group, and members will be selected from each class to form a group. Each group will have fourteen people."

"There's someone from Class C! And Class A has three, Class B is here too!"

Karuizawa glanced at the group assignment sheet and spoke with a puzzled tone.

"How can this be? Aren't we enemies?"

The Doctor asked with slight confusion.

"At this point, we're no longer taking the exam as Class D, but acting as the group [Mars]. Whether we pass or fail depends on each group's results. The exam lasts three days, with one day being a completely free day. Tomorrow at 8 a.m., the school will send a text message selecting one person within the group to become the [VIP]. Then, each group will gather twice a day for discussion to identify the [VIP]'s identity. Thirty minutes after the sixth discussion ends, the answer must be sent to the school via text message. Each person can only answer once, but the [VIP] does not have the right to answer."

Kiyotaka glanced at the rule description and gave a concise summary.

"Let me see... Result one: If everyone except the [VIP] and the VIP's classmates answers correctly, the entire group will receive 500,000 personal points each, and the VIP will receive an additional 500,000."

"Five... five hundred thousand?!"

Karuizaka shouted out in a fluster.

"The VIP would get double, reaching one million points..."

Yukimura's forehead also broke out in sweat as he spoke with a slight tremor.

"Result two: If even one person fails to answer or answers incorrectly, excluding the [VIP] and their classmates, the [VIP] will receive 500,000 personal points."
