The other party paid the money, Hachiman accepted it.

I passively accepted some information from Sakayanagi.

She was born prematurely and has a congenital heart condition. Although there is a possibility that she might be able to undergo surgery when she grows up, she has already accepted this.

Even if I can't do some strenuous exercise, this kind of life is still pretty good.

But that also means she can't experience the life of an ordinary girl. That's a little disappointing.

Ultimately.

Although I always thought Sakayanagi was terrifying and had a strong attack power, she was still just a girl after all.

Most of the Classmate Sakayanagi, and as someone who was paid to come here, the best course of action was to listen quietly.

After Hachiman returned to the classroom, Sakayanagi and Kamuro did not leave the private room.

After Sakayanagi returned the cutlery, Kamuro suddenly spoke up.

"What do you think, Kamuro?"

"What do you mean, 'whatever'? Sakayanagi... have you always regretted not being able to be a normal girl?" Kamuro said.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Sakayanagi Arisu. "Do you think I'm just recounting my past? That's truly disappointing. Without me, you can't think for yourself at all."

Sakayanagi's tone remained unchanged, but the wording changed.

The way people address the Kamuro maiden has changed from "you" to "you".

Sakayanagi is a very strange person. She uses "you" as a polite form of address, but she doesn't truly respect you from the heart. So, her usual respect for you actually means she looks down on you.

But now that you're suddenly being addressed as "you," it means you're very dissatisfied with her.

Having stayed by the other person's side for two months, Masumi Kamuro immediately recognized it.

"So if you didn't come out to complain to Hachiman Hikigaya, what were you doing?" Kamuro asked.

She doesn't like being treated like an idiot, although... she often feels like she can't keep up with Sakayanagi's thinking.

"It's a test, a test worth 100,000 points."

"Then, unfortunately, our class will probably fail the Uninhabited Island Exam."

Sakayanagi gripped his cane, preparing to stand up, and said.

"I deliberately brought up the Uninhabited Island Exam, and he wasn't surprised. Then I brought up Kushida, and he wasn't surprised either."

"This shows that he did indeed arrange for Kushida to gather intelligence."

"Then they will launch a fierce attack."

"Don't forget how Ryuen was demoted and how Hachiman Hikigaya was promoted in the last Sudō assault incident," Sakayanagi said.

"If Hachiman Hikigaya launches an attack, the risk factor is very high," Sakayanagi commented.

"So now he's specifically gathering information about the Uninhabited Island Exam, and I still can't take the exam."

"What do you think will happen to our class?" Sakayanagi asked.

"You mean..." Kamuro finally realized.

Could it be that Sakayanagi deliberately brought Hachiman Hikigaya over to confirm Hachiman Hikigaya's attack power?

From this perspective, those 100,000 points... are quite valuable.

And Sakayanagi Arisu continued.

"Katsuragi is completely incapable of protecting Class A."

"So cherish your current class." With that, she started walking forward, gripping her cane.

"But."

Kamuro was also a member of Class A. When she suddenly heard that her class might be demoted, she initially thought it was absurd, but she had also witnessed Ryuen's class being demoted to Class D.

Moreover, Sakayanagi has always had a very high opinion of Hachiman Hikigaya.

So if Sakayanagi doesn't participate in this Uninhabited Island Exam... will he really fail miserably?

"Sakayanagi, then we should have Katsuragi keep an eye on things," Kamuro said. "Because if your absence causes your class to drop in grade..."

"Foolish," said Classmate Sakayanagi. "If the class falls behind, and I have a ticket to become Student Council President, do you think I would still need to try to win over the entire class to vote for me?"

Forehead.

It's definitely not needed anymore.

Because if a class falls down, everyone wants to move up.

So even students from the Katsuragi Faction will vote for Sakayanagi for free.

For no other reason than to get the class back to its Class A status.

Therefore, having a Student Council President from their class is a significant advantage.

"Moreover," Sakayanagi said, "If Katsuragi doesn't fall, then those Katsuragi Faction classmates won't come to my side."

Katsuragi possesses personal charm.

Therefore, there are a few die-hard fans. At the same time, Class A now has some advantages, so some fence-sitters have also sided with Katsuragi.

Class A remains divided.

So watching Katsuragi perish on his own and then taking over all of his power is also a good option.

After all, no effort is required.

If Katsuragi fails, his supporters will come to him on their own.

And.

"As for Hachiman Hikigaya's attack power," Sakayanagi said. "I have high hopes for him. If he can successfully attack Class A and climb up to Class A, then there's nothing to worry about."

"Because his class is not good enough for him, and if he can really lead the class to advance, then it will prove his ability."

"Then."

"Can't we just collect 20 million points and buy him then?"

"Enemies can become allies," Sakayanagi said.

These are all solutions that have been carefully considered.

I see.

Kamuro understood.

It turns out that Sakayanagi had actually prepared a backup plan.

I spent 100,000 points today to invite Hachiman Hikigaya over, not because she was bored or wanted to vent to someone, but because I had thought it through carefully.

Sakayanagi is indeed terrifying.

But.

Kamuro thought.

Don't you think it's too expensive to buy Hachiman Hikigaya spending 20 million?

Chapter 107 Sakayanagi Arisu Wants to Make Money

No information about the Special Exam was announced on the 1st, but on the 6th, a Saturday, the homeroom teacher notified all students to gather at the school gate at 10:00.

The only personal belongings one can bring are a mobile phone and a change of sportswear.

But.

The notice itself is quite nice.

[Next, the school will arrange a chartered ship trip for all students. You can think of it as a regular school trip. Since it's a full boarding school, all expenses on the ship will be covered by the school, including your meals. Students who have objections or do not wish to go should send a message to their homeroom teacher within 20 minutes, obtain the necessary documents from their teacher, and sign to remain at school.]

Students who agree to participate in the trip need to prepare their own toiletries and changes of clothes.

In this way.

Students who wanted to relax on the weekend immediately checked several times until the same thing was announced over the loudspeaker, at which point all the students realized what was happening.

Then I started packing my things.

As for not going, why wouldn't I go?

The same applies to Hachiman.

The notification stated that the period would last for a week, so basic changes of clothes should be prepared.

However, after he finished tidying up, he found several messages on his phone that he had left aside.

One of them belongs to Classmate Sakayanagi.

However, instead of saying anything, she sent a picture.

It's a form for signing and leaving at the school.

Um.

Sakayanagi probably heard the news and realized he couldn't come, becoming a student who stayed behind, and was unhappy about it.

It seems like a real shame, Classmate Sakayanagi.

Hachiman felt sorry for her for two seconds.

Then I felt really lucky that Sakayanagi didn't come.

I hope this Special Exam has a high score requirement so I can directly take down Katsuragi.

So he started looking at other information.

The messages were sent by Kushida Horikita, Karuizawa, and Hirata.

The messages from Kushida and Horikita confirmed that... the Special Exam for this month has begun.

Kushida was previously assigned to gather intelligence, and now that intelligence has come in handy.

As for Karuizawa...

[Any tasks assigned to me this time?]

Um.

Karuizawa is getting more and more into the game.

Before Hachiman could even speak, she proactively sought orders.

Is it actually comparing types of characters that require human instructions?

Then Hachiman looked at the message Sakura had sent him while he was checking Karuizawa's information.

[Hey, Hachiman, can I bring my camera with me?]

As expected of Sakura.

Still so introverted.

You could just ask Chabashira-sensei about this kind of question. And you're not even brave enough to ask?

So Hachiman sent a message to Chabashira to ask, and quickly received a reply that the camera was not against the rules.

That's for sure, because the rules don't prohibit bringing a mobile phone, and mobile phones are allowed to take pictures.

Therefore, the camera itself is not considered a violation.

So Hachiman forwarded the reply he received to Sakura.

[Thank you, Hachiman!]

It's clear that Sakura seems to be very happy.

Hachiman had always thought that Sakayanagi was being unreasonable by treating Kamuro like a dog, but now he felt like he was raising Ogura.

Finally, we arrived at Hirata's place.

[Once we get on the ship and dormitories are assigned, could you please share a room with Yamauchi and Kōenji? He's not very sociable, and I'm worried the others might ostracize them.] by Hirata Yosuke.
