"Should I bring her in?" Karuizawa asked considerately.

"No need."

Su Wei shook his head and stood up:

"I'm not very familiar with her. She suddenly came to see me, probably because of the black ball exam. I'll go out to see her."

After saying that, he prepared to leave.

Karuizawa Kei nodded, and was about to turn around and go back to continue registering when her gaze fell on Horikita Suzune, whose expression was obviously off.

After hesitating for a moment, although their relationship was usually just average, she still asked:

"Horikita... are you alright? You look terrible."

Horikita Suzune forced a smile and said:

"It's nothing. We were just discussing having students who have confirmed their participation in the upcoming Black Ball exam and preliminary tests ask the teacher for leave to go for intensive practice."

"Those who will participate in the preliminary test next time..."

Karuizawa Kei murmured something along, then suddenly her body stiffened.

Wait a minute! Didn't I say I'd go next time before the preliminary test...? Should I ask for leave?

Fear surged back into my heart.

The girl instinctively turned her head, wanting to find Su Wei for advice.

But they found that he was already outside the classroom.

......

Meanwhile, on the Soviet side...

As soon as he stepped out of the classroom, he realized that Kiryuin Fuka was not waiting alone outside the door.

At this moment, she was leaning against the corridor wall, chatting casually with Kikyo Kushida, who had a smile on her face.

Su Wei stepped forward with some doubt:

"Are you two very familiar with each other?"

When Kikyo Kushida saw that it was Su Wei who came out, she quickly waved her hand and explained softly:

No, not at all.

"It's just because during the previous test on the deserted island, a few of us girls had to go out and collect capsules, right?"

"Back then, to guard against possible 'space-time rifts,' Megumi led Morishita and the others the whole way, and I shamelessly followed Kiryuin-senpai. Over time, we managed to exchange a few words~"

Kiryuin Kaede brushed a strand of her long, silver-white hair behind her ear and pursed her lips, saying:

"Let's just say we've been through thick and thin together."

Su Wei nodded, not delving deeper into the matter:

"So, senior, did you come all this way to see me? Is there something important? If not, our class is in a mess right now. Hirata and the others are all swamped with work."

As he spoke, he tilted his head and gestured towards the new student registration area inside the classroom, which resembled a vegetable market.

Seeing this, Kiryuin Fuka no longer concealed her purpose.

She stood up straight and stated frankly:

"Since you're so straightforward, junior, then I'll be frank with you too."

"I remember you used to be on good terms with Horikita Manabu, and you often exchanged information about the Black Ball, right?"

Su Wei hummed in agreement and waited for what was to come.

Kiryuin Kaede then continued:

"Now that his fate is unknown... I need a reliable channel to access information about the Black Balls from your first year of high school."

Soviet understanding:

So, you chose me?

"However... now that President Horikita has spread the Ripple technique throughout the entire school, even if the president is no longer here, I think Nanami Masaru, who is also a member of the student council, is fully capable of taking over this task."

"You didn't need to go to all this trouble, did you?"

Upon hearing Su Wei mention that "Nangumo Masaru and Horikita Manabu have a good relationship," Kiryuin Fuka seemed to have heard a joke and burst out laughing without any regard for her image.

"Huh? Nagumo Masayuki and Horikita Manabu are on good terms?"

"Junior, you're really good at joking."

"Hmm, it might actually be quite good in some aspects..."

Kiryuin suppressed his smile and wiped away non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes:

"Nan Yunya is too kind-hearted. I don't like his behavior, so even if it's a long way, I'd rather come and cooperate with you, a junior who seems somewhat agreeable."

What do you think of my reasoning?

Su Wei smacked his lips.
