Ichinose, you will regret it.

Class D was completely defeated with just one strike.

[Do you find it interesting to always do one plus one problems when doing exercises? ]

"Huh? You mean to say that beating our D class is as easy as adding one plus one?"

Thinking of the conversation with Uesugi Gen on the first day, Horikita Suzune smiled silently.

It turns out that guy wasn't really bragging.

Just like that, Horikita Suzune walked on the beach in a daze, and in a trance she had already walked back to the D class camp.

"There's only one meal left. How are we going to survive the next two days?"

"That's right. The food we can find outside is getting less and less. We can't just drink water for the next two days."

……

"This is all Yamauchi's fault. We shouldn't have rescued him in the first place. We also wasted 150 points of supplies."

"Yes, if Hirata and Horikita hadn't signed a contract with Class B, we wouldn't have fallen to this point. At least we still have more than 100 points left."

……

"Let me go. I want to go back to the ship now. Our points are already at 0, right? Instead of staying here, it's better to go back to the ship. At least we won't starve to death."

"Yeah, yeah, look at how happy Class C is. We're working ourselves to death right now, but we still end up with the same result. Why didn't we just choose the same plan as Class C from the beginning? No, I'd say we shouldn't have chosen Horikita as the leader in the first place!"

……

Ignoring the arguments of the D class members, and ignoring their verbal abuse, Horikita Suzune mechanically walked back to her tent and lay down on her side...

Horikita Suzune knew very well that she couldn't convince the group of people arguing outside.

It’s up to them whether they want to withdraw from the competition or not, but Horikita Suzune will definitely persist until the last day.

Even if I lose, I will finish this exam!

At this moment, a very dull voice suddenly sounded outside the tent.

"Horikita, I have a proposal."

Chapter 73 As a friend.

The sixth day of the special exam on the uninhabited island, at the D class camp.

"Hey, hey, is this outrageous? They're just hungry for two days, but they all ran away."

Shibata Sa raised his hand to his forehead, looking out at the empty camp of Class D, his tone full of disbelief.

Kanzaki Ryuji also sighed, "Although I was mentally prepared, the effect of that one was too good."

"Those D-class guys are so bad. We're counting on them to work together to get through the last two days after losing all their class points in the first month."

Uesugi Gen sneered and gave his final comment, "Arabian Nights!"

"However, not all students in Class D are like this. Look, Uesugi-kun, there are still some students who are persisting."

"The kind-hearted Ichinose still hopes to change Uesugi Gen's opinion of Class D."

Looking closely, there was indeed some movement in Class D's camp. It seemed that there was still a small group of people willing to work hard for the class.

"Let's go and get to know them again. Regardless of their stance, their behavior is worthy of praise."

After saying that, Uesugi Gen and the students from Class B walked towards the Class D camp.

As they walked into the D class camp, the figures of the remaining personnel appeared clearly in front of them.

Looking at the two people in front of them, not only the people in Class B, but even Uesugi Gen was stunned, and then smiled awkwardly.

"How ironic! On the first day, I was going to abandon you as sacrifices, but when disaster struck, you ran away without a word, leaving only the two of you who were supposed to be abandoned by the class working hard for the class. Ms. Horikita, Mr. Hirata."

Yes, the people who are still here are Horikita Suzune and Hirata Yosuke, who were discussed to be abandoned by everyone in Class D on the first day.

After hearing what Uesugi Gen said, Horikita Suzune didn't retort as usual, but replied calmly, "I've been aware of this since I decided to move up from Class D to Class A."

Although she was indeed very weak yesterday, Horikita Suzune smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Uesugi-san, please don't say that to everyone. Everyone is doing this because I didn't do well enough."

Hirata Yosuke gave a wry smile and defended everyone in Class D.

"Come on, this isn't a question of whether you're doing well enough. Those people in your class are a complete bunch of useless people."

Uesugi Gen said this with disdain, then touched his chin and looked at Hirata Yosuke. "But it's really strange that someone like you wasn't assigned to our Class B. If you were assigned to our class, you wouldn't be sighing like this all day long."

After Uesugi Gen said this, the others present suddenly realized that Hirata Yosuke... seemed to be really suitable for the happy atmosphere of Class B.

However, everyone thought again that if it weren't for Yosuke Hirata's efforts to maintain the current status of Class D, Class D would probably have fallen apart long ago.

"Stop talking such useless nonsense, Uesugi Gen. Are you here to declare your victory?"

Horikita Suzune didn't say anything like Uesugi Gen's methods were despicable. She was also largely responsible for not discovering such an obvious weakness in time.

Horikita Suzune went straight to the point and asked about Uesugi Gen's purpose of coming.

Uesugi Gen replied with a smile, "No, Ms. Horikita, I'm just here to gather intelligence. As for declaring victory, in this kind of situation, no one dares to claim victory until the very last moment, right?"

This guy...is definitely not that easy to deal with, Horikita Suzune thought to herself.

Then he crossed his arms and said expressionlessly, "I'm done. You can leave now."

"Don't be like this. Didn't you invite me to visit a few days ago? Why did you change your mind so quickly?"

Uesugi Gen teased, then glanced around the camp, "Where's the C-class student your class took in?"

"She left. When she saw our class return to the ship, she left on her own."

Horikita Suzune replied calmly.

"I see."

Uesugi Gen nodded, "The intelligence reconnaissance is complete, I have no further questions."

"So can you leave now?"

Horikita Suzune started to chase people away again.

"No, I'm not leaving yet."

"Didn't you say you had finished your investigation?"

Horikita Suzune asked in confusion.

"The intelligence reconnaissance for the special exam is complete, but I have other things to do here."

Uesugi Gen looked at the two people standing in the empty D-class camp.

"Things to do as a friend."

They both looked stunned.

Uesugi Gen looked at Horikita Suzune and said, "Ms. Horikita, I was the first person you actively added as your friend, right?"

Then he looked at Hirata Yosuke and said, "Hirata-san, you often recommend some interesting shops to me, right?"

"Just because the people in your class don't treat you as one of their own doesn't mean it's the same in our class. Although we have different positions and are forced to be enemies in this special exam, I still admire your personalities."

"How about it,"

Uesugi Gen extended his hand to invite, "Would you like to come to our B class camp together? We already have a C class student there, so we wouldn't mind having two more D class students."

"and,"

Uesugi Gen raised his hand and looked at the sky in the distance. "A heavy rainstorm is coming. It's not safe for the two of you to stay here. It's better to gather as many people as possible so that we can look after each other."

Actually... I would be helped by my own competitors.

Both of them lowered their heads and remained silent for a moment.

quite a while.

"No..."

Horikita Suzune shook her head. "It's the special exam period now. If you invite us, your class leader will be exposed. If we find any clues and guess who your class leader is, it would be unfair. It's better to use your own strength to complete this exam now."

"Ms. Horikita..."

Uesugi Gen looked at her determined face, shook his head, and said with a dumb smile, "I think you are more like Juebei Lingyin, then it's up to you. But please take care of yourself and don't get wet in the rain, otherwise I won't be able to explain to your brother."

After saying this, Uesugi Gen turned around and left Class D's camp.

Got it, what a nagging guy...

Looking at Uesugi Gen walking away, Horikita Suzune thought silently.

No, something seems wrong!

my brother?

Horikita Suzune, who had been a little touched just now, suddenly flew into a rage, "Didn't you say you wouldn't tell my brother?"

"I didn't tell him. He knew it himself. He said he had super powers and could sense your physical condition."

When Uesugi Gen realized that he had let the cat out of the bag, he ran away and started talking nonsense.

"You liar!"

Horikita Suzune's angry voice echoed throughout the woods.

Chapter 74 The final puzzle piece.

Somewhere in the woods of an uninhabited island.

"By the way, this is the first time we've met alone, right?"

Uesugi Gen looked at the girl in front of him who was looking at him with contempt with half-closed eyes, and asked curiously, "Is there anything about me that you should care about?"

stare~

Masumi Kamuro once again carefully looked at the young man in front of him.

This guy... is really suspicious...

Ever since the last observation plan of Uesugi Gen ended, Kamuro Masumi felt more and more that something was wrong.

Until that day, the guy in front of him directly added himself as a friend and asked him to help introduce him to Sakayanagi.

Ignoring the man's previous bunch of nonsense, Kamuro Masumi directly gave him Sakayanagi's account and asked him to contact him himself.

What made Kamuro Masumi collapse the most was that this person said something to Sakayanagi, and after the conversation, Sakayanagi said something directly to her.

[During this special exam, please follow Uesugi-san's orders.]?

No, what kind of magic potion did he give you that made you sell me out so easily?

Masumi Kamuro still remembers the look on Uesugi Gen's face when he came out, which looked like "You're finally in my hands."

How could this style, this tone, be so similar?

But he had evidence to prove that he was not that bastard...

No! You can't just assume that Uesugi Gen isn't that bastard.

Masumi Kamuro shook his head, trying to make his thoughts clearer.

Ultimately, my assumption that he wasn't that bastard was based on that tracking incident. If we remove that tracking incident...

Masumi Kamuro suddenly raised his head, gritted his teeth, and glared at Uesugi Gen.

The similarity is over 90%!

"Hey, Miss Kamuro,"

Looking at Kamuro Masumi's uncertain expression, Uesugi Gen silently took two steps back, "We are allies now, please don't have any bad thoughts about me."

"Enough of the nonsense, Totsuka Yahiko, the leader of Class A for this special exam."

In the end, Masumi Kamuro suppressed her desire to trample Uesugi Gen to death. After all, it was the special exam period, and if she really beat him, Class A would definitely be exploited by him.

"Oh, is it really him?"
