The second message followed immediately.

Xiaohui: [Suwei...Matsushita Chiaki and Koenji have already returned to school. Sato Maya just invited me to go with her to find out about the follow-up to the preliminary test.]

Should I go? It's entirely up to you.

Clearly, she was seeking advice from her "owner" and reporting her whereabouts at any time.

Suwei thought for a moment.

Now that the test is over, given Horikita Suzune's personality, she will go, whether it's to find out the results of the preliminary test or for information that might be useful to her.

He typed a reply casually:

Go, join them.

That's perfect, I'm curious too.

Volume 1: Chapter 77 Horikita: Please teach me how to become strong!

When Su Wei followed Karuizawa Kei back to the open-air plaza where Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and the others had left that afternoon.

The sun had completely sunk below the horizon, leaving only a few dim afterglows.

A number of people were gathered in twos and threes in the square.

Even in Class D, the atmosphere wasn't great.

Despite being the undisputed winner of this test, none of the classmates gathered here showed any joy of victory on their faces.

On the contrary, many people, like those in classes B and C next to them, hung their heads and were extremely depressed.

Perhaps it's a case of "the rabbit mourns the fox's death," or perhaps it's a fear that one day they might suffer the same fate.

Of course, it's also entirely possible that those troublemakers simply didn't show up, which is why the atmosphere was unusually harmonious.

Just as Su Wei was secretly observing his surroundings, Kikyo Kushida, who was standing with Mori Nene to provide backup, noticed the commotion.

"Xiao Hui, Su Wei, thank you for your hard work."

She subtly distanced herself from the small group, placing her hands behind her back, her tone full of concern:

"By the way... where's Horikita-kun?"

Karuizawa Kei frowned.

To be honest, she never had a very good impression of Kushida.

Firstly, the other person's charming and seemingly friendly socialite demeanor always reminds Karuizawa of the terrible memories of being bullied in junior high school.

Secondly, the other party, as the initial black ball reference student, clearly exuded a sense of superiority these past few days, yet he showed cowardice when the test registration was announced in the morning, hiding in the back like a coward.

Although Karuizawa felt he had no right to criticize her for being afraid of death.

But now, she is Suwei's property.

As a qualified parasite, it is her duty to shield the host from these unnecessary troubles.

"She has always been a loner."

Karuizawa Kei stood silently beside Su Wei: "Didn't you always claim to have a good relationship with her? How could you not know?"

Kikyo Kushida chuckled dryly after being retorted, but she wasn't annoyed. She simply said softly:

"Since the exams just ended, I didn't want to disturb Horikita-kun. I thought... you guys would come together after the exams."

As she spoke, Kikyo Kushida suddenly waved in the direction diagonally opposite Su Wei, her smile bright:

"Ah, Horikita-kun, you've arrived~"

Su Wei looked in the direction of the sound.

Horikita Suzune was walking alone.

Despite being greeted by Kikyo Kushida, she maintained her aloof and unapproachable expression, showing no interest in even a perfunctory nod.

Su Wei withdrew his gaze, turned his head to Karuizawa Kei, and instructed:

"Go find Matsushita Chiaki and the others. I have some personal business with Horikita."

"......OK."

Karuizawa Kei nodded obediently without any questions, not even glancing at Horikita, and turned to walk towards the girls' small group.

This unusually obedient and well-behaved demeanor surprised Kikyo Kushida, who was standing nearby.

Seeing Su Wei walk straight towards Horikita Suzune, Kushida bit his lower lip, feeling a little hesitant about whether he should shamelessly follow her to find out what she was thinking.

Fortunately, the appearance of her homeroom teacher, Chashiba Sae, temporarily relieved her of this trouble.

"It seems everyone is still here."

Chabashira Sae, wearing high heels, walked up to Hirata Yosuke and the others, her usually mocking face showing a rare look of satisfaction.

"Excellent. You not only came out on top in the preliminary test, but you also won big in the main competition last night."

She held up the message on her phone:
