I just want your reward.

"We really didn't say anything!"

"If you didn't tell me, how would Class C know what you were doing in the cafe?"

"I-We don't know!"

"..."

Watching Totsuka Yahiko blaming some students, a trace of annoyance flashed in Sakayanagi Arisu's eyes. It was obvious that her plan to attack Katsuragi Kōhei was about to fail again.

The original definition was that Kōhei Katsuragi made the wrong decision, which led everyone to the road of failure, but now it has been denied by Shiho Manabe, and the responsibility has been divided into two parts again.

Regarding the accusation from opponents, which is based on facts, some students cannot guarantee that they have not leaked any information even if they want to argue.

Therefore, Arisu Sakayanagi sighed, and it was obviously impossible to continue attacking Katsuragi Kōhei today.

She looked at Suzuki Toru silently, a gleam in her eyes flickered. Was this also part of his calculation?

Chapter 319 Taking Advantage of the Void

Due to Manabe Shiho's words, Class 1-A fell into a brief period of self-doubt, but the opinions of the Sakayanagi faction remained.

In order to prevent similar mistakes from happening again next time, the unanimous consent of the entire class must be obtained before it can be implemented. Although it seems to be a restriction on Kōhei Katsuragi, it will actually cause a lot of trouble for Arisu Sakayanagi.

Even so, both Katsuragi Kōhei and Sakayanagi Arisu knew that the opinions of the majority did not matter at all, and if they did not eliminate the other side in time, the infighting in the class would become more and more serious.

The Katsuragi faction is now in the upper hand, and Sakayanagi Arisu can only continue to wait for an opportunity.

Thinking of this, Suzuki Toru sighed lightly. Even if he forcibly suppressed Sakayanagi Arisu's plan today, the other party would not give up.

Because Arisu Sakayanagi won't just give in.

Even if her Sakayanagi faction is destroyed, she will replenish her strength from other places and launch her sneak attack again at the right time.

There are only two possible outcomes to the internal strife in Class A: either Katsuragi Kōhei and Suzuki Toru give up controlling the class and follow the instructions of Sakayanagi Arisu.

Or, they exiled Arisu Sakayanagi, made her drop out of school or transfer to another class.

No matter how you look at it, Arisu Sakayanagi is a very troublesome woman.

Toru Suzuki was walking along the tree-lined avenue at dusk. The sports festival had officially ended, and he could see students from all grades dragging their tired steps towards the dormitories, some of them with smiling faces.

Under the dominance of Class A, it was indeed gratifying that the lower-ranked classes rarely won a round.

But in some classes, the resentment of students is almost like that of evil spirits. Anyone who knows and sees the result of zero would probably not feel good.

Seeing Sudo Ken and the others ahead, Suzuki Toru took a detour through a remote path. Although it would take more time, it would avoid unnecessary trouble.

Light clouds accumulated on the thin sky, the evening breeze blew gently, and a golden-red light shone in the distance, as if the air was burning red. The waves were surging, and the shade of the trees swayed for a while. Through this quiet path, you can go around the school's artificial lake, and then you can follow the road back to the first-year student dormitory.

Usually only couples hang out here, and Suzuki Toru seldom walks this path, but it feels pretty good now.

"...Can you tell me the reason?"

Suzuki Toru stopped and saw two figures sitting on a bench in front of him. Due to the obstruction of the woods, the other party did not seem to notice that someone was passing by.

"Let's not talk about summer vacation for now. Why did we lose today's sports festival?" One of the figures looked like a teacher, with a long high ponytail and a graceful figure hidden under an office lady's outfit. "With your ability, you wouldn't be ranked last, if not first, right? Ayanokouji, don't you have anything to explain to me?"

Although they were sitting on the same bench, they were a little far apart. It was more like they were wary of each other than strangers.

However, Suzuki Toru was somewhat surprised that he could meet Ayanokouji Kiyotaka here.

"The class's information has been leaked. There's nothing I can do about it, Chabashira-sensei."

It turned out to be the D class teacher, Chabashira Sae.

At the same time, Toru Suzuki was confused again. Why did the class teacher and the students meet in private?

What's more, Chabashi Sae's tone just now sounded like he was questioning Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, which was not the normal tone a teacher should use to treat students.

"Even if there is a traitor, I don't think you are completely unaware of it. Even if it is Class A's fault, don't you have any countermeasures?" Chabashira Sae seemed very anxious. "Your class finally gained points, but immediately lost 150 points in the preferential treatment exam, and now lost another 200 points. For you, it doesn't matter what happens to the class?"

"Chabashira-sensei, it was you who forced me to take action, right?" Ayanokouji Kiyotaka said in a calm tone, without even a change of expression on his face.

"Are you provoking me? Please don't forget that it is because of my protection that you can continue to live here, otherwise you will be expelled from school immediately." Chabashi Sae's voice was full of threats, as if she had sensed Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's suspicion of her.

Suzuki Toru was impressed by this teacher. He originally thought that he was just a guy who was just waiting to die, but he didn't expect that he was as shameless as himself.

"Do you have any evidence to prove this is true?"

"The proof is that I know your affairs very well. Even other students and teachers know nothing about you, but I know what you have done."

"Do you know Suzuki?"

"Of course I know. His performance is much better than yours, Ayanokouji."

"In fact, I feel like he's the most likely one to come from his father."

"..."

"Are you surprised?" Ayanokouji Kiyotaka paused, "The feeling he gave me was different from yours. He seemed to know my strength very well, so he tested me on the uninhabited island. I didn't react, so he stopped."

"What do you want to say?" Chabashira Sae felt inexplicably irritated, and even revealed a sneer on his face, "Do you think you can't beat him, so you just admit defeat?"

"I won't admit defeat, but the fact is that you don't know me as well as he does." Ayanokouji Kiyotaka said calmly, "Like Horikita, your first reaction is to use me, but I remember I told you that one day in the future you will regret using me."

"Haha, Ayanokouji, don't forget that as long as you commit scandals such as smoking, bullying, stealing, and cheating, it is only natural that you will be expelled from school, and it is me as the class teacher who will judge whether you have done such things."

"As a teacher, you are threatening students. Are you so obsessed with Class A?"

"It's not my threat, but your father's wish."

"No, I know very well that a teacher cannot fight against my father."

There was a hint of hesitation in Chabashira Sae's eyes, but she quickly concealed her emotions and said calmly: "I am your homeroom teacher. No one knows better than me how to get you expelled from school."

"I see." Ayanokouji Kiyotaka silently took out something, "This way, we have the evidence of the recording. I told you, you will regret it."

Chabashi Sae's expression froze. She stared at the thing in the other person's hand. Without a doubt, it was an extremely professional recording device.

"You...how could you have such a thing?" Her voice was no longer indifferent, but full of disbelief. She had originally thought that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka did not bring his cell phone today, so there would be no risk of recording.

"I found it in my room." Ayanokouji Kiyotaka said, "If I hand this recording over, it's unknown whether I will drop out of school, but Mr. Chabashira, you will definitely leave Gaoyu and your Class A."

Chabashi Sae turned his eyes away subtly, but his tone was still a little tough: "Even if you let me leave Gaoyu, someone will take my place. Your father will not let you go."

"Maybe, but you are the one who has no choice now. If you want to climb into Class A, you can only put your hope on me, and this Class D should be the best class you have ever met, so you are tempted." Ayanokouji Kiyotaka said faintly, "In other words, you need me, but I don't need me. If I drop out of school, I'm afraid Class D will be even further away from your dream."

Chabashira Sae remained silent.

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka did not expect her to give any answer, but just said calmly: "With my father's methods, you can't stand it. It should be another person who helped me. Let's stop here today, Chabashira-sensei."

After he finished speaking, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka stood up and left, no longer paying any attention to Chabashi Sae.

Looking at his back as he left, Suzuki Toru felt that the thing in his hand looked very familiar, as if it was the bug that he had asked Kushida Kikyo to place in his room.

For a moment, Suzuki Toru felt a little weird. If he remembered correctly, the bug was probably out of battery, and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka was just trying to trick Chabashi Sae.

Having said that, he would not ask Ayanokouji Kiyotaka to return the bug.

To be honest, Suzuki Toru initially thought that he could eavesdrop on some information, but it turned out that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka did nothing in the room. He occasionally had a party in the room with Ike Kanji and the others, and that was it.

Perhaps Ayanokouji Kiyotaka discovered the bug early on, so he didn't hear any valuable information.

In the end, the bug only worked for about half a month, and Suzuki Toru had no desire to retrieve it.

Who knew that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka would use his bug today to get rid of Chabashi Sae's blackmail.

However, Chabashira Sae also has problems of her own, which is why she felt guilty and panicked when facing the recording.

Toru Suzuki fell into deep thought. Listening to the conversation between the two, it seemed that Kiyotaka Ayanokouji's father was a remarkable man and wanted to let his child drop out of school.

Thinking back to what Arisu Sakayanagi said, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka is the highest masterpiece from somewhere, and the other party should have originally been an institution that was benchmarking against Gaoyu, in other words, the product of factional struggles.

Presumably, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's father was also a politician, and Suzuki Toru planned to go back and look up some information.

He continued to look at Chabashi Sae. Most likely because of the result of the sports festival, the opponent's defense was obviously broken. His eyes were dull, his lips were pursed, and he kept staring at a certain place.

However, Chabashi Sae's sight was empty, he was simply staring ahead.

Just as he was about to take action, a figure suddenly rushed past Suzuki Toru, a strand of long hair passed through his sight, and then a pleasant fragrance wafted over.

"Asahina-senpai?"

Hearing his voice, the girl in front suddenly stopped and looked back. It was indeed Asahina Nazuna.

Suzuki Toru's eyes lit up, but Asahina Nazuna just glanced at him, then turned back silently and quickened her pace.

"Wait, Asahina-senpai, there aren't many people in the cafeteria right now, there's no need to rush like that."

As expected, Asahina Nazuna quickly stopped.

"Suzuki-kun, do you know the entry form for our class?" However, she did not turn around, but just asked this.

Suzuki Toru reacted immediately. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Asahina-senpai, did you suspect that I peeked into your class and told Kiriyama-senpai?"

"No, I know that simply peeking won't have that effect. It's impossible to face an opponent who is slightly stronger than me in every event."

Having said this, Asahina Nazuna was silent for a long time.

"Hey, is there a traitor in our class?"

Chapter 320 Qingmei's Relaxation

Perhaps he noticed someone talking, Chabashi Sae looked over sharply and found that it was a man and a woman. His expression changed slightly and he stood up silently.

The scene was a bit awkward. Suzuki Toru watched as a few white butterflies flew out from the flowers on the roadside and fluttered past the girl in front of him. Perhaps to facilitate movement, her long hair was tied up high. There was a small ball of light shadow on the back of her neck, and her fair skin looked pure and spotless.

"Nanyun-senpai, do you think someone in the class has leaked the information?"

"Although I don't think any companion would do such a thing, there is no more reasonable explanation."

"Asahina-senpai trusts her classmates very much, but I won't reveal their names."

"..."

Asahina Nazuna was silent for a long time. Suzuki Toru glanced at Chabashira Sae on the other side. The latter noticed his gaze, turned away with a cold face, and left the bench as if nothing had happened.

"I didn't force you to tell it, I just find it a little unbelievable. We have been fighting together for more than a year, why would someone betray us?"

Rather than losing to Class 2-B, Asahina Nazuna was obviously more concerned about someone in the class abandoning everyone. She couldn't understand why they did that.

When she heard Nan Yunya announce to the whole class with a cold face that she would search for the traitor and give him the most cruel punishment, or even expel him from school, she tried to persuade Nan Yunya to show mercy, but was treated coldly by Nan Yunya.

Especially in front of the whole class, Nan Yun Masa asked her if she wanted to help Suzuki Toru deal with herself.

Asahina Nazuna suddenly felt a strong sense of humiliation. Wasn't it that all these years of getting along with her wasn't enough for her to understand her?

How could she possibly help Suzuki Toru deal with her childhood sweetheart?

Even when she saw Toru Suzuki scouting her class not long ago, Asahina Nazuna interrupted Toru Suzuki immediately. The reason she let him go was because there was no point in forcing him to stay.

Therefore, Asahina Nazuna simply left the class, and deliberately avoided the main road, and walked into this small path alone.

"Betrayal is shameful, but have you ever thought about why the other party would betray you when you have everyone's trust?"

Asahina Nazuna was slightly startled, and her originally unclear mind slowly calmed down.

"Is there a reason why I must betray everyone?"

"Perhaps this is the reason why I must betray Nanyun-senpai."

"Betraying Miyabi..." Asahina Nazuna quickly remembered something, "Do you want to stop Miyabi from doing what she wants?"

"This reason is too righteous. Except for the president, I'm afraid no one else has such an idea." Suzuki Toru smiled, "For example, the reason why I am against Senior Nanyun is very simple. I also want to do whatever I want here, so I won't allow anyone to be more presumptuous than me."

Asahina Nazuna couldn't see his expression, but she could completely imagine his expression at that moment, and she couldn't help but pursed her lips.

"What an overly arrogant junior."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Even so, I still feel angry."

As she said that, Asahina Nazuna turned around and her eyes immediately fell on Suzuki Toru. He was extremely tall and had a well-proportioned frame. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was a magazine model. What's more, he had a handsome face that was not inferior to some idols in terms of appearance.

She swallowed the words she was about to say and was silent for a moment: "I shouldn't meet you privately, or people will misunderstand that I'm interfering in your fight."

"I understand." Suzuki Toru nodded.

Asahina Nazuna showed a moment of surprise. She thought Suzuki Toru would rush to deny her words or feel disappointed, but in the end he just gave such a bland answer.

She suddenly hesitated. Could it be that Toru Suzuki actually had no interest in her?

Thinking of this, Asahina Nazuna secretly breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that she and Nanyun Miyabi had indeed overthought.
