Kōhei Katsuragi's Decision
She paused, then couldn't help but add, "However, if you're really interested in him, I can help you get more detailed information."
Sakayanagi Arisu narrowed her eyes slightly.
"... for example?"
"For example, the places he likes to go, who he associates with, and even..." Kamuro Masumi lowered her voice and chuckled mischievously, "His LINE account."
Sakayanagi Arisu remained silent for a moment, then suddenly chuckled softly.
"Kamuro."
"Um?"
"You'd be perfect as a paparazzi."
Kamuro Masumi: "..."
Sakayanagi Arisu withdrew her gaze and looked back into the distance.
Her fingertips tapped lightly on the armrest of her wheelchair, as if she were thinking about something.
Looking at her thoughtful profile, Kamuro Masumi suddenly found it amusing and couldn't resist leaning close to her ear.
"By the way, my older brother is also number one on the list of guys I most want to marry~"
"Kamuro," Sakayanagi Arisu smiled and turned her head, "Do you want to be expelled?"
"Oh my, Classmate Sakayanagi is so cute when she's angry~"
Chapter 114, Section 113 Katsuragi Kohei's Decision
As dawn broke, Katsuragi Kohei had already completed fifty push-ups.
The sound of sweat dripping from his chin onto the floor was the only noise in the dormitory.
He stared at himself in the mirror—the boy who had lived in the closed environment of Tokyo Advanced Nurturing High School for three months, his eyes sharper than when he entered the school, but also more lonely.
After washing up, Katsuragi Kohei stood by the dormitory window, gazing at the sky gradually brightening in the distance.
In the closed campus, all contact with the outside world was completely cut off, and even cell phone signals were blocked.
This environment often made him think of his sister—why she was doing well, and whether she was taking her medicine on time.
But here, he couldn't even make a simple phone call to say hello.
The figures of my parents have become blurred, but the room at my relative's house, which was always filled with the smell of medicine, remains vivid in my mind.
The image of his frail and sickly younger sister curled up in the blanket became the clearest picture in his midnight dreams.
The acceptance letter from the Advanced Nurturing High School was taped to the headboard of her bed by her younger sister; she said it was "a star brought by her brother."
Now, this star is locked inside a completely closed campus.
Katsuragi Kohei's family was not well-off.
His parents and grandparents passed away early, leaving him and his frail twin sister to depend on each other for survival.
They stayed at their relatives' houses, and although their relatives did not mistreat them, living under someone else's roof taught him to read people's expressions and moods at a young age.
Children from poor families mature early.
Therefore, Katsuragi Kohei knew from a young age that he had to work harder than others to give his younger sister a stable future.
His dream was simple: after graduation, find a stable job, rent a small apartment, live with his sister, and no longer depend on anyone.
It wasn't that their relatives treated them badly.
On the contrary, his relatives treated him and his sister quite well.
But...
In short, when Tokyo Advanced Nurturing High School sent him an admission recommendation.
He, his sister, and their relatives were all very happy.
This is because the school not only waives tuition and living expenses, but also provides excellent living and educational resources.
If you graduate smoothly, you may even be able to enter a top-tier company directly.
For Katsuragi Kohei, this was undoubtedly an opportunity to change his fate.
However, after enrolling, he discovered that the school was far more complex than he had imagined.
Given his abilities and character, he believed he was qualified to receive such resources from a prestigious national university.
But other students, such as a small number of classmates and students from certain classes in the same grade.
They are not worthy at all.
Then, on the evening of the first day of school.
He paid points to obtain some genuine information about the school.
"I see. The school only fulfilled its pre-enrollment promises to Class A. That makes more sense."
Most of the students in his class were very outstanding.
This is the result obtained through contact and communication on the day of enrollment.
He is also confident that he can lead the class forward.
But there is also a lovely girl in the class who is physically weak.
Her name is Sakayanagi Arisu.
They seem to share the same idea.
Moreover, he is more conservative in his actions.
She is more aggressive and more radical.
The two factions coexisted and were at odds with each other.
However, she seemed to be affected by some unexpected event along the way.
Somewhat distracted, he took the opportunity to expand the influence of the Katsuragi Faction.
After the first month, his class was ranked B.
However, most of the students in the class didn't seem to care much.
Because the gap between them and Class A is only a dozen points.
Soon after, Sakayanagi Arisu recovered.
However, she didn't seem to care about the current situation within the class.
Instead, they demonstrated their stance through concrete actions, launching a direct offensive against all other classes.
However, she was not a fool, and her offensive was mainly based on seduction.
This way, it won't attract strong hostility from other classes.
As for increasing attention?
All four classes are competitors.
The class leaders and key personnel are the focus of attention.
After that, Class D was the one who got caught.
A student named Kanji Ike was expelled for failing his exams.
He had mixed feelings, but he still thanked her frankly.
Although he didn't like this method, he had to admit that Sakayanagi Arisu had indeed made contributions to the class.
Afterwards, other classes also presented their performances on the school stage.
Class C framed the students of Class D.
They sent someone to provoke and lure Ken Sudō to the special teaching building.
This is a place without surveillance cameras.
Then, despite his injuries, he successfully went to the school to falsely accuse the school.
The students in Class D reacted quickly and responded effectively.
They formed an alliance with Classes A and B to jointly deal with Class C during regular school activities.
Because Class C's actions were rather unconventional.
After thinking it over, he agreed.
The class should focus its energy on improvement, not on guarding against the underhanded tactics of Class C.
Afterwards, Class D offered a 500,000-point reward for evidence.
With such a generous reward, most of the students in the school participated.
However, the rulings from both Classes C and D regarding the violent incident involving Ken Sudō gave him a deeper understanding of Ryuen Kakeru.
This is an opponent with keen observation, meticulous thinking, and "flexible" methods.
The campus is so big, and there are so many people coming and going.
Even if you lure someone to a fixed location, there's no guarantee that unexpected situations won't occur.
However, his plan was a complete success, even with the majority of students participating in the investigation.
This is enough to prove his strength.
Some time passed.
The Student Council president sent them a message to come to the Student Council Office.
Then they informed me of the membership application results.
After three months of observation, only Ichinose Honami met his requirements.
The rest of the flags and cages were all defeated.
He was somewhat puzzled by this.
Because among the students present, they were either class leaders or core members of the class.
He also knew some of the people involved.
He believed they were qualified to join.
However, perhaps the Student Council's considerations are different from his.
After all, this is a special school.
But Sakayanagi Arisu stepped in again.
Just as she had launched an offensive against her other opponents.
He promptly asked the Student Council for an answer.
Result...
This was somewhat unexpected.
The Student Council's concern was that the vice president might indirectly influence or directly dominate the competition for first-year students through them.
Afterwards, the Student Council gave feedback to each person.
It is divided into two aspects: ability and attitude.
His words conveyed the right attitude, but his actual abilities were lacking.
The test result is tentatively deemed unqualified.
As for the others, it was much the same.
In this interaction with the Student Council.
After thinking it over all night, he finally made an important decision: to talk to Sakayanagi Arisu.
Quickly unify the classes.
In this way, someone from Class B will be able to join the Student Council and will not fall behind Class A's progress.
His purpose was pure and never changed.
He only wanted to give his sister a better future.
