VIP Exam (6): Cooperating with Class B, Finding All VIPs

Pleasant times always pass by in a flash.

6.58pm

"Ah, how did I land on Yi Chen's property again? I'm bankrupt now."

"Ugh, it's over, it's over. Next round, next round."

"Yi Chen has such good luck."

"Yi Chen is so amazing, wow~"

"Hey, Shiina won the first round, and Yi Chen won the second. It's definitely my turn next."

"I must buy a lot of property first."

Everyone was discussing intensely.

Himeno Yuki slowly reminded everyone:

"The discussion time is about to end. Does everyone still want to play?"

Tangben Yishan said regretfully:

"Ah, time flies so fast. Let's play again tomorrow morning then."

Sudo Ken chimed in:

"Hey, let's play one more round. I almost won just now."

Shiina Hiyori said softly:

"No, today was truly interesting, but I still have things to take care of."

Tangben Yishan said heartily:

"Sorry Sudo, we really do have things to handle in our class. If you want to play, let's go to Yi Chen's room tonight."

Yi Chen looked at the two of them helplessly:

"Hold it right there, I don't want to play anymore."

The others also expressed that they had things to attend to once the discussion ended.

Yi Chen glanced at Kanzaki inadvertently, and Kanzaki understood immediately.

After everyone finished tidying up the room, the discussion time also ended.

Everyone left the venue one after another.

Sudo Ken stretched:

"Has everyone eaten yet?"

Yi Chen and the others shook their heads to indicate they hadn't.

Sudo said lazily:

"Ah, let's go eat together then."

Sato said happily:

"Sure, let's go. The first day is over, it was actually quite relaxed."

Airi followed by Sato's side.

The three of them walked out of the conference room.

Yi Chen saw Kanzaki at the corner of the hallway. After the two exchanged a look, Kanzaki turned into the corner.

Yi Chen clutched his abdomen, pretending to have a stomachache, with a pained expression:

"Uh, Sudo, my stomach suddenly feels uncomfortable. You guys go ahead and eat."

Sudo Ken looked worried:

"What's wrong with you, Yi Chen? Do you want me to go with you?"

Yi Chen looked at him with disdain:

"Uh... that won't be necessary. I don't have the habit of needing someone to accompany me to the restroom."

Airi said worriedly:

"Are you alright, Yi Chen? Are you sick?"

Yi Chen said helplessly:

"You guys go ahead, don't worry about me. I'll be there in a bit."

Sudo:

"Alright, hurry up, buddy."

"Is it okay if I order the same thing for you as I get?"

Yi Chen turned and walked away:

"Whatever."

Yi Chen arrived at the corner where Kanzaki had just turned and walked forward.

Kanzaki was standing by the window at the end of the corridor.

Yi Chen reached the end of the corridor, Kanzaki opened the door to a room nearby, and Yi Chen followed him inside.

It was a storage room, illuminated by a faint light.

Kanzaki adjusted his glasses and said coldly:

"Yi Chen, Ichinose has already told me about your request to transfer classes."

Yi Chen nodded in acknowledgment.

Kanzaki:

"I don't really care about you joining; as long as Ichinose agrees, it's fine."

Yi Chen:

"Thank you."

Kanzaki looked at Yi Chen indifferently:

"I have discussed it with Ichinose regarding this special exam."

"There are a total of 8 rounds. If every round is resolved peacefully, then the class rankings will remain unchanged."

"We will receive 11 million private points."

"Your Class D will receive 14 million private points."

"However, that is the ideal scenario."

"With the points from the Uninhabited Island exam, your Class D should have reached 310 points."

"You will surpass Class C very soon."

"I don't know what kind of exams the school will have in the future to earn class points."

"But letting your Class D rise first and having our two classes cooperate is a good thing."

"Therefore, our Class B will sacrifice one VIP in this exam to tell you, allowing your group to end the exam early."

"You will receive 500,000 private points and 50 class points."

"We will be deducted 50 class points."

"For the other round of the exam, we need everyone to answer correctly to earn some private points."

"Before you transfer classes, we will continue to cooperate with your Class D."

Yi Chen said calmly:

"Is that so? But I cannot represent Class D."

Kanzaki looked indifferent:

"Ichinose trusts you; that is something you should figure out yourself."

Yi Chen said calmly:

"Then, tell me."

Kanzaki whispered:

"Venus, Shiranami Chihiro."

Yi Chen:

"Understood. Let's leave it at that for now."

Yi Chen left first, and Kanzaki waited for a while before leaving as well.

Yi Chen thought:

Class B's Shiranami, Class D's Sudo Ken, and Karuizawa.

It really is the same as the original plot; the VIPs are assigned based on the sequence of the names of the eight planets.

Now I just need to know the members of each group.

Yi Chen:

310 points. Ryuen should also be close to figuring out the true nature of this exam.

He should figure it out before tonight, so I want to be faster than him.

20 million points for the class transfer.

Thinking of this, Yi Chen went to the cafeteria to finish his meal with Sudo Ken and the others, then claimed he was feeling unwell and returned to his room to rest.

Yi Chen sent a message to Chabashira:

"Teacher, I need to talk to you about something."

Chabashira:

"Right now?"

Yi Chen:

"Yes."

Chabashira:

"Meet me on the top deck of the Cruise Ship."

Seeing the message, Yi Chen arrived at the top deck of the Cruise Ship.

There were no entertainment facilities on the top deck; it was simply a place to come up and catch the breeze.

Yi Chen saw Chabashira leaning against the railing, gazing quietly at the sea.

Yi Chen walked up beside Chabashira.

Chabashira said coldly:

"What is it?"

Yi Chen spoke indifferently:

"I want to know the members of all the groups."

Chabashira said casually:

"Can't you just ask the people in your class yourself?"

Yi Chen replied flatly:

"It's too much trouble, and they might not remember everyone."

Chabashira:

"Anything else?"

Yi Chen:

"I want to swap my SIM card."

Chabashira lit a cigarette:

"20,000 points."

Yi Chen took out his phone:

"Let's do it."

Chabashira:

"Just yours?"

Yi Chen:

"And Sudo Ken's."

Chabashira smiled:

"40,000 points, plus the 10,000 points for looking at the member list."

"50,000."

Yi Chen looked at Chabashira expressionlessly:

"No problem, just transfer it."

Chabashira looked indifferent:

"Wait until I finish this cigarette."

Afterward, Chabashira led Yi Chen to her room.

She showed Yi Chen all the names of the members in the Eight Planets group.

Through deduction, Yi Chen figured it out.

Mercury is closest to the sun, so the first name in the order is

Class B Shiranami Chihiro.

Venus is second.

Class A Katsuragi.

Earth is third.

Class A Kito Hayato.

Mars is fourth.

Class D Karuizawa.

Jupiter is fifth.

Class B Minamikata Kozue.

Saturn is sixth.

Class D Sudo Ken.

Uranus, seventh.

Class C, Ishizaki Daichi.

Neptune, eighth.

Class C, Kinoshita Minori.

After Yi Chen finished calculating the targets for each class, he called Sudo Ken over.

Sudo Ken arrived at the office area of Chabashira and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Sudo Ken felt a bit nervous:

"Hello, Chabashira-sensei."

Yi Chen:

"Sudo, let's swap SIM cards for our phones right now."

"We'll swap them back after the exam."

"When the targets are announced on the final day, I will use your phone to make the announcement."

Sudo Ken was a little confused, but he still agreed to Yi Chen's request.
