Horikita from Class C vs. Shiina from Class D! Racing Against the Clock!

It's possible.

Because there are 3 VIP in their Class B.

There are a total of 12 VIP, while there are 3 in a class.

It appears to be split evenly.

At the same time.

Hachiman even sent a message to Ichinose, which makes people wonder what Hachiman the VIP students in Class B.

Therefore...

Is that right?

It follows a pattern.

Horikita stood quietly to the side, listening. Although Ryuen's method was to directly and violently force the students to check the VIP information on his phone, Hachiman did it. He, she, and Kushida were responsible for checking the phones of the students in the class and even sealed all the phones.

It stopped the classmates from messing around.

"In short, the people I most want to contact are your Class B. First of all, our common enemy is Class A. Also, Ichinose, you must be able to control the information of the VIP in the class, after all, you are so popular."

"Ah... haha." Ichinose seemed a little embarrassed. "Actually, you overestimate me. I don't have everyone's trust that much, so..."

But this is clearly just modesty, because Ichinose is really popular and has the trust of the students in Class B.

However, letting them continue talking like this is actually not very beneficial for Hachiman.

Because he had already determined that Ryuen shared the same idea as him, Ryuen was now obsessed with obtaining information about the VIP from other classes, not just for the sake of a particular group's victory, but because he had considered that the exam had a pattern, and the selection of VIP had a pattern.

This can be seen from the fact that Mr. Kazuma Sakagami from the Ryuen class participated in and spoke up for the Ryuen class after the previous incident of Sudō assaulting someone.

The digital teacher in Ryuen's class is rather unscrupulous, often revealing information that teachers shouldn't or that is ambiguous to Ryuen. Therefore, the VIP follows a pattern has been confirmed once again from Ryuen's perspective.

It was worth it for him to have always regarded Ryuen as a very useful person.

Then Hachiman stepped forward, "This is clearly a meaningless collaboration, because if you cooperate, it means pushing Class C and Class A together. And under these circumstances of being targeted, Class A will definitely choose to cooperate with us. Do you think it's meaningful for both sides to work together? Besides, Ryuen, you tricked Class B before. What makes you think you can be trustworthy?"

"..." Ryuen looked at Hachiman. "Then you'll all be utterly crushed in this exam!"

He kicked the chair away and walked out.

Clearly, he was trying to trick Ichinose, to get information about a VIP and then deduce the pattern from it. But Hachiman's words meant that Ichinose would become wary and might even refuse to cooperate with him.

So the plan was interrupted.

So, somewhat disgruntled, Ryuen kicked the chair. This was considered impolite.

But this is only the surface.

Because we already knew that Class C were allied, it was very difficult to break them apart or obtain information about the VIP.

So.

Ryuen really wants to find is the weakest class in this exam.

Class A, First Year.

Chapter 157 Horikita of Class C and Shiina of Class D! Every second counts!

The Dragon Group's discussion in the morning ended in discord.

Katsuragi remained silent. He had already left the room, and before that, he had actually obtained information about the VIP.

The students of the Katsuragi Faction naturally supported him. They all knew that this exam had to be taken very seriously, otherwise their position in Class A might be in jeopardy.

After receiving the message from the VIP, the students from the Sakayanagi Faction also came over with their phones to have their information checked.

It can be said that this class achieved a high level of cohesion.

According to his plan...

All the students opted not to participate.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Class A is like a piece of fat meat that everyone is eyeing, so we also have to consider the terrible situation that the other three classes might face if they joined forces.

The students in the class were divided into 12 groups, making it impossible to take care of everyone. So, in order to avoid being found out as VIP and having points deducted, he adopted the strategy of refusing to take the exam.

But.

I have a feeling of unease.

"Katsuragi, Ryuen is here!"

At that moment, his follower Yahiko Totsuka, rushed over and said something.

"Ryuen?"

Katsuragi frowned.

Katsuragi was also a member of the Dragon Group and knew that Ryuen had openly plotted to unite with Class B or Class C during the group's discussion meeting.

I want to get information about the VIP in other classes.

"Let him come over," Katsuragi said, frowning.

"But Ryuen tricked us last time!" Yahiko said.

"I haven't forgotten that," Katsuragi said.

Oh.

In other words, they brought Ryuen over to ridicule Ryuen.

Katsuragi Faction's students were delighted to see this.

After all, Ryuen is a complete scoundrel.

They had begged each other to exchange their initial points for living expenses during the Uninhabited Island Exam, but then they betrayed them during the guessing game, and even let Class C guess their class's leader. It was disgusting.

So if we can terminate the contract with Ryuen, that would be a good thing.

Then.

As Ryuen walked over, he noticed that more than 20 people from Class A were staring at him menacingly.

"Oh my, is this a welcome?" Ryuen came alone, but he showed no sign of timidity.

Or rather, he smiled.

"What a warm welcome!"

"But I don't have time to deal with your other trivial matters," Ryuen said. "Let's join forces for this VIP Exam."

"Impossible!" XN

It's one thing if Ryuen doesn't mention the alliance, but the moment they mention Class A, the students get instantly angry.

"You promised to be our ally and then betrayed us! You're completely untrustworthy!" Yahiko Totsuka shouted at Ryuen.

"I already said, can't we guess that your team leader's terms are written in the contract?" Ryuen said. "I only trust the contract."

"And don't even think about breaking the contract. There are still dozens of Special Exam to come. If you break the contract directly, then there will be no reliability. When you really need the contract, no class will help you," Ryuen said.

"This is a situation you need to worry about yourself, Ryuen."

But Katsuragi looked at him coldly and seriously.

"Even if you try to unite with Class B or Class D now, they won't trust you."

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have had the nerve to come here," Katsuragi said.

"..." Ryuen.

Hehe.

Ryuen smiled.

However, he knew that what Katsuragi said made sense, which was why he had no choice but to come here.

Their reputation was ruined, so their attempts at normal cooperation were rejected.

"This time we can sign an agreement with you," Ryuen said. "No mutual attacks."

"I need the information of one VIP," Ryuen said. "And in return..."

"Are you going to give us information about the two VIP?" Katsuragi asked.

"You have quite the appetite," Ryuen said. "Sure. I can agree to that."

"One for two," Ryuen said. "However, we need to write down a rule that neither class will guess the other's class's VIP."

In other words, this must be in writing.

Class A only needs to provide one VIP information to get two VIP information from Class D in return, which seems like a win.

Ryuen noticed that the students in Class A seemed somewhat agitated after he said that.

In other words, we need to facilitate this agreement.

But.

"Then you can leave." But Katsuragi said coldly. "Ryuen, don't even think about trying to take advantage of Class A."

Are you sure?

Ryuen squinted at Katsuragi.

Because this agreement was in black and white, he did not attack Class A, and even his own class was at a disadvantage in the transaction.

Result.

Even Katsuragi wouldn't agree to that?

"I'm sure," Katsuragi said. "Or do you want us to send you away?"

This is Class A's territory, and there are 24 Class A students around here, while Ryuen is just one of them.

Indeed... they are somewhat outnumbered and outmatched.

"Then you'll regret it." Ryuen said harshly, then kicked the chair in dissatisfaction and left.

The students in Class A watched him leave.

But very soon.

"Katsuragi, why did you let Ryuen leave?" a student from Katsuragi Faction asked.

Because if we sign an agreement with Ryuen this time, our class will have the advantage, and if we write down the clause that neither side will guess the other's VIP information, then Ryuen will not violate it this time.

So overall, Class A still has the advantage.

"I don't know if you guys have noticed," Katsuragi said with a frown. "Our class has three spots for VIP."

"And what if the other classes are like this too?"

"It's like dividing it equally."

"What benefit does Ryuen gain from specifically proposing this 2-for-1 exchange?"

"Ryuen is a dangerous guy. Would he really let himself get the short end of the stick?" Katsuragi said. "So I suspect that this VIP Exam won't be easy."

"Perhaps there is a shortcut."

"That's why Ryuen wants to get information about the VIP. Judging from the group discussion, Class C will not join forces with Ryuen in the short term."

"And Ryuen wants one of our class's VIP slots," Katsuragi said.

"So, what do you mean, Katsuragi?" Hashimoto from the Sakayanagi Faction looked over.

"I suspect there might be some pattern in this list of VIP of preferential treatment."

"But simply looking at the information of the VIP in one's own class may not be enough to verify or deduce; at least information from VIP in another class is needed to verify or assist in the deduction."

Katsuragi said, "That's why Ryuen was so generous as to exchange two VIP records from his class for one VIP record from our class."

"Isn't Ryuen incredibly cunning?" Yahiko Totsuka immediately remarked. "He's not just after the information of one VIP in our class; he wants to dig out the information of the other two VIP in our class as well!"

"But didn't he say he was willing to write down the information of the VIP who wouldn't guess each other's class?" Yahiko Totsuka continued.

"There's also the possibility that they might sell our class's VIP information to other classes," Hashimoto said.
