Class-Transfer Ticket / Forest Training Camp

"So that's how you use pigtails, you bastard."

Lying face down on the bed, Kamuro, weak and listless, called out to Aoyama, who had just left his body.

Even if he's a jerk, he's still your man.

Lying down beside Kamuro, Aoyama pulled her into his arms, gently touching her long hair.

Then, he blocked Kamuro's ability to speak for what seemed like the umpteenth time that night.

"I'm very happy today, Masumi." After a long while, Aoyama relaxed his heavy breathing in the Kamuro.

"You got off easy, you bastard."

Unable to place her hand on Aoyama, Kamuro was pleased with Aoyama's infatuation with her and let him continue his reckless behavior.

After entrusting everything to Aoyama, she felt much more relaxed.

From now on, she will no longer need to steal to quell her loneliness.

Chapter 281 Class Transfer Ticket

After the yacht holiday ended, Aoyama returned to school and spent another five days in his room at Kamuro.

Day 6.

Following behind Aoyama, Kamuro entered the study group's dormitory and was met with many teasing glances from the girls.

Feeling those gazes, Kamuro bit her lower lip and pinched the bastard's soft waist, wishing she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Since returning to school, Aoyama has been spending every night in her dorm room, sticking to her like glue.

Of course, he also did his fair share of risqué things.

"It's all your fault."

Aren't you enjoying it too?

Faced with Kamuro's accusations, Yamauchi complained before stepping forward to change the subject and deflect the criticism from Kamuro.

Amidst laughter and joy, peaceful time slowly passed.

Today I'll spend time with Ichinose, tomorrow with Yamamura, and the day after with Sakura. My ten-day winter break will soon come to an end, leaving Aoyama feeling reluctant to leave.

On Thursday morning, not long after the start of the new semester, a new Special Exam arrived.

Early in the morning, all the students packed their travel luggage and boarded buses with their homeroom teachers, leaving the school. Along the way, the students discussed their destination.

A forest school nestled deep in the mountains.

Unlike his classmates who were completely unaware while sitting on the bus, Aoyama, as the Student Council President, naturally knew where the upcoming exams would be held.

Moreover, he knew that this was Special Exam that the entire grade would take together after the reform.

"You're not going to tell me you didn't bring your medication, are you?"

Aoyama glanced at Sakayanagi beside him. As the bus traveled for longer, her already fair face gradually turned even paler.

Last year, during my cruise trip, I took a bus to Sakayanagi, and I can't forget how I got seasick on the bus.

"Congratulations, you guessed right, Shiki." With a forced smile, Sakayanagi pursed his lips again.

"What's there to congratulate about? Give me your hand."

Without a word of complaint, Aoyama, just like he had massaged Sakayanagi on the bus last time, turned to the side, grabbed Sakayanagi's hand, and started massaging it.

Since he'd already hugged her on the Ferris wheel, he became more casual with Sakayanagi.

But why didn't Sakayanagi bring her medicine? She shouldn't have forgotten it, given her memory. Did she lose it?

"Please quiet down, the Special Exam is about to begin."

While Aoyama was wondering what Sakayanagi was up to, Mashima, who was near the driver's seat, stood up with a handheld microphone in hand.

"The next Special Exam for you, the students of Class B, is—"

Mashima paused for a moment, then said, "No, you've already returned to Class A. I'm sorry."

Now it's January 11th, and the Class Points have been updated, resulting in a significant change in the class order.

Class 1-A: 1340 points

Class 1B: 1223 points

Class 1-C: 1100 points

Class 1-D: Zero Hour

Two semesters later, Aoyama's class returned to Class A, Class Ichinose returned to Class B, and Ryuen's class returned to Class C.

Class D is still Class D; the class order for first grade has returned to the first month of the school year.

Originally, Ryuen Class would only have been demoted to Class B after the final exams, but the subsequent fight also caused the class to lose a lot of Class Points.

"Next, we'll be going to a forest school in the mountains for an eight-day, seven-night cross-grade group activity," Mashima continued. "The name of this Special Exam is 'Mixed Training Camp,' and we'll send out detailed information later."

A thick stack of booklets was handed to the students in the first row.

Without anyone interrupting, the materials were smoothly distributed to the students, and Mashima continued his explanation.

"The ability to remember everything at a glance is truly enviable, Shiki."

Seeing that Aoyama only lingered on each page of the booklet for a moment, and put down the booklet of more than twenty pages in less than half a minute, and then picked up his hand again, Sakayanagi spoke with no small amount of envy.

While her memory is also genius-level, it's not as overpowered as Aoyama's.

"Just keep envious." Without stopping, Aoyama began to think about how Class A should conduct this Special Exam.

Although I'm no longer the class leader, I've got nothing else to do anyway.

For this Special Exam, all boys and girls in the grade will be divided into twelve groups, with six groups of boys and six groups of girls taking the exam separately. Each group has a minimum number of students required.

In addition to the number of students, each group is also required to consist of students from two classes.

After being divided into groups, they will join the groups of second and third graders to form a large group of dozens of people.

The results of the Special Exam will be determined by the comprehensive exam held on the last day of the forest school, and the key result will be evaluated by the "average score" of all members divided into six groups.

"Morishita, just pretend I don't exist for this Special Exam. I'll find a team by myself."

After roughly understanding the rules of the exam, Aoyama conveyed his message to Morishita.

This time, he planned to be in the same group as Ayanokoji and have some fun with him. Anyway, given the rules of this Special Exam, it seemed unlikely that he would be the one expelled.

Although dropping out of Ayanokoji would be difficult for Ayanokouji.

To qualify for expulsion in this Special Exam, one must first fall to the bottom of the six groups.

Secondly, the average score of the subgroups that make up the larger group must be lower than the overall average score of the larger group.

If both conditions are met, the group leader will have to accept the punishment of expulsion. However, in order to prevent anyone in the group from deliberately causing trouble, the school has also established a rule.

That means that after the person in charge receives the punishment of expulsion, they can take one student down with them and have them expelled as well.

Of course, to prevent outstanding students from dropping out, the school will not recognize the student who is chosen as the "substitute" if the student performs exceptionally well in the exam.

"You're going to be paired with Ayanokoji, right?" Sakayanagi leaned her head on Aoyama's shoulder, seemingly oblivious to her own thoughts.

"Yes, the only guy I'm even remotely interested in is Ayanokoji."

Aoyama felt a little regretful. If this forest retreat didn't require men and women to be separated, he wouldn't have been so bored as to go and hang out with Ayanokoji, and there was also Ryuen as a side dish.

As two people who are universally disliked, no boy in the first year wants to team up with them, and unsurprisingly, they will both be left behind.

Then all these abandoned people will be grouped into the sixth group.

"Can you get first place among the boys this time?"

Closing the materials distributed by Mashima, Sakayanagi felt a sense of anticipation for the results of this Special Exam.

As the first Special Exam after the reform, this time there was a very interesting reward called Class Transfer Ticket.

As the name suggests, this is a reward for transferring classes. Although it is limited to transferring classes within one semester, it is still equivalent to Twenty Million Personal Points in some respects.

This award is only given to the top-performing male student and the top-performing female student in the entire school.

If you choose to cash out, you can only cash out two million personal points.

Chapter 282 Forest Training Camp

"Highly unlikely."

In response to Sakayanagi's question, Aoyama put down Sakayanagi's hand, which had already warmed up.

In some sections of this Special Exam, the scoring was determined by individuals, and there were no set standard answers.

"Morality", "mental training", "regulation", "autonomy"

Unlike academic or physical education exams, these abstract exams specify that the grading criteria are in the hands of the school.

While it's not as dramatic as saying you get a certain score, even if two people perform exactly the same way, they will most likely get different scores.

"The Class Transfer Ticket is for Ayanokoji, right?" Sakayanagi grabbed Aoyama's hand and put it on his head, then rubbed Aoyama's palm. "This is a reward for helping me relieve my motion sickness."

What kind of reward is this? I just haven't touched it in a while.

Thinking to himself, Aoyama ruffled Sakayanagi's incredibly textured silver hair. "Most likely, considering the situation in Class C, it's impossible to play anymore."

Even with all thirty-one members in Class C unleashing their full power, they would still struggle against the forty-three members of Class A.

To save face by getting first place in the whole school, and then to transfer to the well-established Class B to rise up, Aoyama could easily guess what kind of path Tsukishiro had planned for Ayanokoji.

"Ayanokouji won't get this Class Transfer Ticket Ayanokoji."

Aoyama plucked a strand of silver hair from beside Sakayanagi's ear and played with it, Aoyama smiled.

We'll be there soon.

Glancing out the window at the lush green trees, Aoyama knew they were almost there.

As he expected, the bus soon pulled into a wooded school with an old-looking building.

After helping the pale-faced Sakayanagi out of the car, Aoyama looked around at the layout of the forest school and saw the buildings shown in the information.

The room separating the boys' and girls' dormitories is, without a doubt, the canteen.

Amidst the noise of many students getting off the bus, Aoyama's gaze fell upon a two-story building. Cell phones were not allowed during this forest retreat.

Before getting off the bus, their cell phones were confiscated, and they were not allowed to go out during rest periods or after school without permission.

The only opportunity for boys and girls to interact was during the one hour of lunchtime.

As time passed, after all the students got off the bus, hundreds of students from the entire grade were taken to the gymnasium, where they were divided into groups under the teachers' instructions.

"Find someone else, Kanzaki." Standing alone, Aoyama spoke to Kanzaki, Kanzaki gaze had fallen on Ayanokoji as he took a step forward.

Kanzaki's face was cold. "What do you mean by this, Aoyama?"

"It's very simple. Whichever class-led group tries to Ayanokoji into the team is my enemy, and I will strike back without mercy."

Are you threatening me?

"I'm just teaching you not to cause trouble for the Amikura. Who do you think made you win the final exams, and who created the situation where the class has to rely on me?"

With a mocking smile, Aoyama struck directly at Kanzaki's sore spot.

Without Kanzaki's cerebral palsy assist, Amikura wouldn't have broken his promise to him and signed the so-called contract that would guarantee the class's victory.

Kanzaki was furious. "You!"

"I think you should address me as the Student Council President, this somewhat excited student."

Showing no respect to Kanzaki, Aoyama simply chased him away. Ayanokoji didn't react to this, just stood there expressionless, lost in thought.

After some heated discussion, five groups of boys in the sixth group of first grade have now been formed.

Class A is now down to Aoyama and Totsuka.

Class B, Sumida, Moriyama.

Class C, Ayanokoji, Ryuen, Yamada Albert.

Class D, Koenji, Miyake, Onizuka.

The moment the five groups were finalized, the members of the remaining group were also determined.
