I just want your reward.

"We plan to wait and see. If the favored person reveals his identity at the end, Class C doesn't mind helping to achieve result one." Shiina Hiwa's voice was very gentle, and her eyes did not blink. It was hard to tell that she also had a talent for deception.

However, Ichinose Honami was clearly very happy.

"I'm relieved that everyone has this idea." She took out a few decks of playing cards in preparation. "Although this is my personal suggestion, do you want to play cards together? After all, it's boring to just stay in the room. We can't waste an hour in vain."

Except for a few students such as Yamamura Miki and Hasebe Haruka, almost everyone else participated in Ichinose Honami's card game.

Due to the large number of people, the usual way of playing is obviously not applicable, and only certain special ways of playing can be adopted, such as drawing joker cards.

While shuffling the cards, Ichinose Hoba casually suggested, "Wouldn't it be a bit boring if we didn't bet on something?"

"Bet?" Shiina Hiyori tilted her head, "But we can't gamble. If the school finds out, they might scold us."

"How could we bet on this? It's actually just to punish the losing player. Make him do something, like Truth or Dare." Ichinose Hoba said with a smile, glancing at Suzuki Toru from time to time.

Suzuki Toru pretended not to see it and interrupted, "Who decides the punishment?"

"The player who finishes playing his cards first?" Hashimoto Masayoshi gave the most common answer.

"Ahaha, that's right, that's it. The first place winner decides the punishment for the last place winner." Ichinose Honami's smile became more and more intense. "If that doesn't work, we'll change people later."

"Are there no restrictions on the punishment?" Wang Meiyu asked weakly.

"If it's too much, it's okay to just reject her directly. We can't make things difficult for our classmates. This is just a game." Ichinose Honami replied.

Because they had to draw cards, everyone redistributed their seats and tried to form a circle, and Ichinose Honami took advantage of this opportunity to sit next to Suzuki Toru.

Shiina Hiyori was on the opposite side, next to her were Hashimoto Masayoshi and Wang Meiyu.

"Okay, let's get started right away!" Ichinose Honami seemed impatient to cut the cards.

Suzuki Toru silently picked up the cards in his hand. Fortunately, he did not draw a joker card.

Starting from Ichinose Honami, and following the clockwise order, she can just draw the cards from Suzuki Toru's hand.

Suzuki Toru looked at the girl's smile calmly. She happily drew a card and asked Suzuki Toru to draw her own card.

Then, Toru Suzuki selected the card on her right hand, turned it over, and saw that it was a Joker.

It seemed like a bad start, but she was clearly well prepared.

Suzuki Toru calmly arranged his cards, and then exchanged cards with Hashimoto Masayoshi.

After a while, Ichinose Honami's smile froze.

Because the last one was actually herself.

"What a pity, but what is Hoba-chan going to do?" As the first place, Hirano Rin can naturally give orders to Ichinose Hoba.

"Please spare me, Rin-chan!"

"No."

"Rin-chan, wow..."

"I've always been interested in how you developed so well. Can you tell me?"

"Rin, Rin-chan!?"

Finally, Ichinose Hoba blushed and leaned close to Hirano Rin's ear and whispered something to her.

"So it's the sky..."

Before Hirano Rin could say anything, Ichinose Honami hurriedly covered her mouth.

"You can't tell that, Rin-chan!"

It seems that the punishment is really effective. Suzuki Toru shifted his eyes away from the girl's chest.

Ichinose Honami quickly recovered, took a deep breath, and announced with high morale that she wanted to play another game.

……

"How could this happen... It's impossible... I tried so hard... Why didn't I catch him..."

As they played, Ichinose Hoba kept muttering to herself from time to time. She was determined to pick a card from Suzuki Toru's hand.

There was no doubt that she got the Joker.

In an instant, Ichinose Honami's whole body trembled slightly, and a trace of despair flashed in his eyes.

"It's Hoba-chan again, is it really okay?"

"N-Never mind, I don't care at all, it's just a game."

"..."

Although she still had a smile on her face, a closer look revealed that there was no smile in Ichinose Hoba's eyes. This was probably what they called a forced smile.

She played as the clown in seven of the sixteen games, and lost every time to Suzuki Toru.

Ichinose Honami couldn't understand why she couldn't catch Suzuki Toru even though she had clearly observed his expression.

During the period, she also proposed that the winner be changed to the second to last place who could order the last to last place, in an attempt to turn the tables on the serfs and sing.

Unfortunately, Toru Suzuki was able to get through it safely from beginning to end.

"It seems like it's about time." Shiina Hiyori looked at the time. After the tense and exciting game, her little face was flushed and she seemed a little reluctant to leave.

"But it was fun, it's more fun when there are more people!" Hashimoto Masayoshi sighed. He had been a clown before, and now he couldn't help but stare at Suzuki Toru angrily, "Come to think of it, you haven't been a clown before, I'm going to punish you!"

"Why are you punishing me?" Suzuki Toru was puzzled. He could understand Ichinose Hoba's motives, but why did you get involved?

"Hey, hey, hey, don't you know what you have done?" Hashimoto Masayoshi's face was full of black lines. His little princess must have been defiled by this guy.

Suzuki Toru shook his head, and then someone next to him gently pulled his sleeve.

"Why can't you give way to me?" Ichinose Honami looked at him dissatisfiedly, his voice low.

"You don't need to do this. I will satisfy you in whatever you want me to do."

For some reason, Ichinose Honami started to feel shy when he said that.

"Will you do it if I tell you?"

"of course."

"Have you ever had a girlfriend before?"

"No."

Ichinose Honami, who was originally shy, suddenly stared at him intently, and her whole aura changed. She was still the same as usual, but she gave people a different feeling.

Suzuki Toru had to avoid her gaze and whispered, "Why are you asking this?"

"I don't know, I always feel that this is not your first time." Since everyone was here, Ichinose Honami didn't say much and turned her head silently.

On the other side, Hiyori Shiina looked at the two of them with some confusion. She has always had a good eye for the subject and had noticed the little movements of Toru Suzuki and Masumi Kamuro in the library, and this time was no exception.

But she felt strange.

Aren’t Toru Suzuki and Masumi Kamuro a couple?

Why does he seem to have a good relationship with Ichinose Honami?

It seemed a bit confusing. Shiina Hiyori thought about it and decided not to delve into it further as it was none of her business anyway.

Chapter 199 Hehe, it's your turn

"The Tiger Team's exams have ended. Students who belong to the Tiger Team do not need to take the exams anymore. Please do not disturb other students taking the exams during the free time."

"The monkey group's exam is over. Students belonging to the monkey group..."

After the group discussion ended, the school suddenly sent two notifications to all students, instantly causing the Snake Group members who were about to leave the room to stop in their tracks and look at the contents on their phones in shock.

"The exam is over on the first day, is that true?"

Suzuki Tetsu heard someone mutter something, and Hashimoto Masayoshi next to him also pretended to be surprised and asked suspiciously: "Maybe it was because of impatience that he rashly launched a betrayal?"

Result 1 and Result 2 can only be achieved on the night of the end of the exam, while Result 3 and Result 4, which are betrayals, only require sending the answers to the school in the middle of the exam. Therefore, facing the results of the two groups, although we don’t know what the situation is for the time being, it is either a hasty betrayal or a confident attack.

From the perspective of those outside Class A, due to lack of information, others can only think this way.

"The interval between the two text messages was only a few minutes, as if it was a concerted action." Shiina Hiyori fell into deep thought as usual, and then his eyes wandered around the room.

"That doesn't mean anything. It's another group's exam anyway. It has nothing to do with us." Hasebe Haruka yawned. "If you want to continue chatting, please do as you please. I have to go back now."

"Me, me too!" Wang Meiyu followed closely behind Hasebe Haruka.

It seems that Class D has no interest in it.

"Then I'll take my leave too." Shiina Hiyori paused for a moment. She originally wanted to invite Suzuki Toru to the library tomorrow, but then she thought it was a bit inappropriate, so she nodded slightly to Suzuki Toru and planned to leave the room.

"See you tomorrow, Shiina-san," Suzuki Toru said. "Next time, remember to tell me if you find any good books."

Shiina Hiyori was stunned and secretly glanced at Ichinose Hoba a few times. Wouldn't Ichinose Hoba get angry if he said this to her face?

"Well, I'll tell you."

Perhaps thinking of what happened during the day, Shiina Hiyori's pretty face flushed a little. She stood where she was, afraid that he would touch her again. But after taking two steps, she felt that her pace was too fast. She couldn't help but slow down and walked lightly into the light of the corridor. Her slender and exquisite silhouette flowed on the wall.

Masayoshi Hashimoto thought that was the end of the day, but no one expected that the school notification would sound again.

"The exam for the Ox Group has ended. Students belonging to the Ox Group..."

Wait, didn’t we agree on two groups a day?

Why did the exams for the Ox Group also end?

No matter how good Hashimoto Masayoshi was at controlling his expressions, he couldn't help but look at Suzuki Toru at this moment.

Suzuki Toru was also in deep thought. The one who was favored by the Ox Group was Yume Obashi from Class B. He had looked at the list of members and, excluding the students from Class B and Class A, the rest of the people probably didn't have the ability to see through the favored one. The only one worth paying attention to was Chiaki Matsushita from Class D.

Well, the other person has wishes that are completely different from those of ordinary people.

Assuming that no one accidentally discovered the favored person of the Ushio Group, it means that Sakayanagi Arisu has already taken action. However, looking at the confused look of Hashimoto Masayoshi, it seems that she acted alone?

No, maybe it's Ryuen Sho.

"Three groups finished their exams in just one day. If they happened to be the favored students in the same class, then someone must have caught them all." Ichinose Honami peeked at Suzuki Toru's expression, "Hey, Suzuki-kun, who do you think did it?"

She knows who the favorites in her class are.

As the most friendly leader of Class B, Ichinose Honami has the potential to gather all the favored people in the class, and there is a high probability that the favored people will take the initiative to find her.

After all, the pressure on those who are being favored is also very high. If they are not careful, they will be exposed to other classes and then be terminated from the exam.

The Ox Group and the Monkey Group that finished their exams tonight are both favored students in Class B, which means they only have the last Dog Group left.

"There are no such coincidences. If we can find a whole class of people who are favored, it means someone has found the right pattern."

Hearing Suzuki Toru's answer, Hashimoto Masayoshi widened his eyes. Isn't this a blatant hint?

"That makes sense. If I find the correct pattern, I should be able to end the exams for all groups." Ichinose Honami smiled, and also hinted to Suzuki Toru that this was normal competition and she would not mind this approach.

However, she also noticed Hashimoto Masayoshi's reaction just now.

Faced with the reports from the Tiger Group and the Monkey Group, Hashimoto Masayoshi just pretended to be surprised for a while, but when he saw the text message from the Ox Group, he instantly lost his composure, obviously seeing something unexpected.

Besides Class A, is there anyone else who knows the answers to the exam?

Ichinose Honami immediately locked onto Ryuen Sho from Class C. She was familiar with the situations of Class D and Class C very well, and Class D was not that powerful, so it could only be Ryuen Sho.

Then, she recalled Shiina Hiyori's words.

It is somewhat suspicious that Class C can accept Result 1 in the Snake Group.

Due to the lack of key information, Ichinose Honami was unable to judge what Ryuen Sho was thinking.

"Let me ask you bluntly, Suzuki-kun is not a preferential treatment recipient, right?"

"No."

"Neither am I." Ichinose Hoba added, "Besides, I can guarantee that neither Rin-chan nor Nakanishi-kun are favored."

Hashimoto Masayoshi looked at Suzuki Toru, then at Ichinose Honami. Why did they suddenly fast forward to the confession scene? Was he going to confess too?

However, Suzuki Toru and Ichinose Honami looked at each other and then tacitly looked away.

"It seems that there will be no notification for the fourth group. Let's go back too, Hashimoto-san, Yamamura-san..." Halfway through his speech, Suzuki Toru suddenly realized that Yamamura Miki had disappeared at some point.

This guy's presence is too weak.
