Amasawa Ichika: It's a Miracle! (Continued)

Shuichi Kanda didn't care; were they afraid of a night raid?

"Let's go over and say hello."

Compared to Shuichi Kanda, Ayanokoji wasn't as shameless, so he walked outside the tent.

"Excuse me, my companion and I would like to camp nearby. Please let me know if it's inconvenient for us."

No response? Well, I'll take that as a yes.

However, just as the two were preparing to set up camp, the sound of a watch came from inside the tent.

This is!

Warning bell!

Shuichi Kanda and Ayanokoji dropped the tent and walked over with serious expressions.

Are the people inside awake?

If no one responds after a dozen seconds and the watch shows no sign of stopping, then we should consider the worst-case scenario.

The guy inside is probably already unconscious.

"Excuse me!"

Shuichi Kanda unzipped the tent and immediately felt a blast of cool air emanating from inside, causing him to raise an eyebrow.

However, when he saw what was inside, he couldn't help but frown.

It's someone I know, Ibuki Mio from Class 2-D.

At that moment, Ibuki appeared to be resting in the tent, but Shuichi Kanda immediately noticed that something was wrong with her.

"Ayanokoji, please bring me some water."

Upon hearing Shuichi Kanda's words, Ayanokoji nodded and then took out a 500ml unopened bottle of drinking water from his backpack.

Meanwhile, Shuichi Kanda had already carried Ibuki out.

"Ibuki?"

Ayanokoji was somewhat surprised to see Ibuki; he hadn't expected it to be her.

Shuichi Kanda placed her on the ground, then took the drinking water that Ayanokoji handed him and placed the bottle opening near Ibuki's lips.

While unconscious, Ibuki seemed to sense something and subconsciously drank the water that Shuichi Kanda fed her.

However, Shuichi Kanda n't feed her too much.

There was no way around it; Ibuki's skin was dry, his lips were chapped, and his face was pale—he looked like he was about to dehydrate.

If Shuichi Kanda and Ayanokoji hadn't discovered it in time, this guy's alarm would probably have gone off by now.

After doing all this, Shuichi Kanda put down Ibuki and then picked up the lid to reseal the drinking water.

"She's alright for now. I'll give her some water later, and she'll be fine once she wakes up."

Ayanokoji nodded. "I'll start the fire and we'll prepare the meal."

Before arriving here, Ayanokoji had already fished at the beach, and Shuichi Kanda had already prepared the fish; all that was needed was to grill them and sprinkle them with seasoning.

After the fire was lit, about ten minutes later, Ibuki, who was lying on the ground, twitched her nose and then slowly opened her eyes.

Ibuki, who had just woken up, seemed a little confused. Then, as if she had thought of something, she immediately sat up from the ground, checked her body, and then looked around warily.

"Oh, you're awake. I thought you weren't going to wake up."

The one who would speak so rudely was naturally Kanda Shuichi.

"You're the one who won't wake up!" Ibuki's face darkened instantly. "What did you do to me?"

"Who knows? After all, you were unconscious for so long. What couldn't you do?"

As he spoke, Shuichi Kanda grinned mischievously, and then casually looked Ibuki up and down.

"You bastard!"

Shuichi Kanda's amused smile instantly infuriated Ibuki. "You bastard, did you see me naked?"

"Calm down, we didn't do anything to you."

At that moment, another voice came from the side, Ibuki realized that there was another person walking over from the side.

"Ayanokoji?"

"Hmm." Ayanokoji put down the firewood she had just gathered, then looked at Ibuki. "We heard the warning bell coming from your tent, so we opened it without permission. Then, seeing you in that state, we moved you out of the tent."

Warning bell?

Ibuki paused for a moment, vaguely recalling the sound of a warning bell.

"So, you saved me?"

"You guess."

Seeing Shuichi Kanda's wicked grin, Ibuki was furious, but there was nothing she could do, because she simply couldn't muster the energy.

"Alright, now that you're awake, come and eat. I'll treat you to grilled fish."

"Nobody wants to eat your fish."

Ibuki gritted her teeth and turned her head away.

"Really? Horikita ate it without any hesitation."

A few minutes later, Ibuki took a big bite of the grilled fish, saying as she ate, "Damn Horikita, I won't lose to you!"

Mmm, it smells delicious, but it's a bit salty and a little hot.

Of course it's salty, because Shuichi Kanda did it on purpose.

Ibuki was in a semi-dehydrated state before, not only severely lacking body water but also losing a lot of salt, so she needed to replenish both water and salt.

As for why Ibuki, it's simple: after all, this guy was Ryuen's right-hand man. Considering how hard Ryuen worked, Shuichi Kanda naturally wanted to take care of his subordinates whenever possible.

"Oh, and you can take this bottle of water."

With that, Shuichi Kanda handed over the opened bottle of water.

Upon seeing this, Ibuki.

"Ha, you're giving me the water you drank from? You think I'd accept it? You bastard!"

Two minutes later, Ibuki twisted open the bottle cap and took a big gulp of water.

"If I drank it, I should have said so earlier!"

Ibuki's face was full of awkwardness.

"Heh, I still prefer your unruly self. Please try to get back to that."

"You bastard! I didn't ask you to save me!"

"There's no other way. We can't just watch you die here. What if someone takes advantage of the situation..."

After saying that, Ibuki kicked out, but Shuichi Kanda easily dodged it.

Ibuki is still very weak, and even if Shuichi Kanda doesn't wear Black Belt, he can easily dodge her attacks.

"You can't expect ivory from a dog's mouth."

After cursing, Ibuki went back into the tent.

Damn it, what a tsundere.

The next day, the eleventh day of the exam, Shuichi Kanda was late that morning, so the two of them didn't compete for the arrival order reward, but instead went to participate in the assignment halfway through.

As for Ibuki, she disappeared before Shuichi Kanda arrived. It's safe to say that she's incredibly energetic. She was so weak yesterday, but Ayanokoji said she was quite energetic when she left today.

Upon arriving at the designated location, Shuichi Kanda and Ayanokoji each received a point as a reward.

Then, they met someone there, a third-grade student.

"You two actually teamed up?"

Looking up in the direction of the sound, a somewhat familiar figure appeared on the cliff not far away.

"Isn't this Kiryuin? You haven't dropped out of the exam yet."

Shuichi Kanda glanced at the other person, then made a slight teasing remark.

"Hehe, it seems I've been underestimated."

Hearing Shuichi Kanda's words, Kiryuin was not angry. Instead, he jumped off the cliff and landed steadily.

Holy crap!

It was at least three meters high, and this guy landed down with ease, even while wearing a backpack.

"A female Taishan~~"

Looking at Kiryuin's agile figure, Shuichi Kanda couldn't help but sigh.

"You're really being rude! Don't you think it's a bit much to describe such a lovely girl like that?"

"Cute? You?" Shuichi Kanda tilted his head, then quickly shook it. "Could you please stop joking? Kiryuin, I don't see anything cute about you."

"Really? That's because you didn't let me show my cute side."

Kiryuin was completely unfazed by Shuichi Kanda's sarcastic tone.

"But then again, this Uninhabited Island Exam was surprisingly interesting. Even at my age, I still couldn't help but get excited."

"You talk like you're seventy or eighty years old, "Shuichi Kanda his eyes.

"It's good that you have the self-awareness."

Shuichi Kanda regretted it as soon as he said it. Girls can joke about their age, but they absolutely cannot allow others to say their age.

Although Kiryuin always appears very cool, she is still a woman.

As expected, Kiryuin paused for a moment after hearing Shuichi Kanda's words, then narrowed his eyes and looked at Shuichi Kanda.

"You've got a sharp tongue, huh? I wonder if your body is as sharp as your mouth."

As he spoke, he was about to step forward and teach Shuichi Kanda a lesson, but Ayanokoji had no intention of intervening. In his opinion, Kiryuin was no match for Shuichi Kanda.

"Etc!"

Shuichi Kanda immediately raised his hand to stop Kiryuin.

"What's wrong? Are you begging for mercy?"

Kiryuin looked at Shuichi Kanda with amusement, then cracked his knuckles, making a snapping sound as he pulled them out.

"No, fighting is fine, but can I use the restroom first?"

"You're not thinking of running away, are you?" Kiryuin narrowed his eyes, a sinister glint in them.

"Of course not. I, Shuichi Kanda, keep my word. You can ask Ayanokoji if you don't believe me."

"That's true."

Ayanokoji nodded. Although Shuichi Kanda was often unreliable, he was a man of his word.

"Besides, if I don't come back, you can give Ayanokouji an Ayanokoji."

Damn it, I take back what I just said.

Shuichi Kanda took advantage of this opportunity to run about ten meters away before stopping.

The claim of going to the toilet was obviously a lie. Shuichi Kanda clearly saw Ayanokoji standing idly by and Kiryuin's murderous aura.

He tied on the Black Belt, then pulled down his short-sleeved shirt to cover himself, and then deliberately waited a little while before Shuichi Kanda came over.

"Alright, I'm ready, Kiryuin- senpai."

Then, Kiryuin looked at Shuichi Kanda and suddenly said, "Wash your hands."

Damn, you're such a fussy person!

Shuichi Kanda bottle of water out of his bag and handed it to Ayanokoji. Then, using the spilled water, Shuichi Kanda washed his hands.

"Is it okay now?"

"Certainly!"
