Ishizaki's warning, or more accurately, Ryuen's warning, pretended to be indifferent on the one hand, but did the opposite on the other hand. This was a bit like covering one's ears and stealing the bell, or perhaps Ryuen was just that kind of person who always liked to use superficial traps to deceive others.

Just as Hikigaya was about to speak, Hiyori on the other side spoke first, staring at Ishizaki with an unhappy face: "Ishizaki-san, it's none of Ryuuen-san's business to interfere with who I become friends with. I've said this many times!"

"That Shiina, I..."

Ishizaki looked embarrassed. He was just following orders. Unlike the other girls in the class who looked strong but weak but behaved after being frightened a few times, Shiina in front of him could really lose her temper. He still remembered the night of the midterm exam when they went to block Hikigaya in the alley and were discovered by Hiyori. The next day, Hiyori dared to go to Ryuen to argue in front of the whole class!

She is not afraid of Ryuuen's threats of violence, and is not afraid to confront Ryuuen head-on. She is a girl who truly responds to soft words and not to tough ones!

Moreover, whether it was a study session like the midterm exam or the final exam, Hiyori was the one who took the initiative to help these idiots who had poor academic ability and were looked down upon with their homework. Although many people, including Ishizaki, had complained, everyone was very grateful for Hiyori's help.

At least in Ishizaki's heart, Hiyori's status is no lower than Ryuuen's, and she is not comparable to those girls in the class who only know how to form cliques and small groups!

As for Hikigaya in front of him, to be honest, if Ryuuen hadn't forced Ishizaki to come over, he would definitely not want to have any intersection with this dead-eyed guy, for fear that he would be fooled again without knowing it!

The last surveillance incident is still fresh in his memory!

"Hiyori, I came here to investigate the situation, so I can understand Ishizaki's actions."

Hikigaya quickly spoke up to ease the atmosphere. He didn't want to make it difficult for Hiyori to move around in the class because of his own affairs, and preventing other classes from investigating was a very common thing in this exam.

After much persuasion from Hikigaya, the anger on Hiyori's face finally subsided a lot, but the girl still had some little emotions.

"Besides, these things were purchased by your Class C using points, so I can't use them casually."

Hikigaya glanced meaningfully at Ryuuen in the distance.

"Ok."

However, Hiyori didn't seem to understand what Hikigaya meant. She simply thought that Hikigaya didn't want to take advantage of Class C to avoid being gossiped about.

"Shall we go for a walk on the beach?"

Hiyori pointed to the deserted beach in the distance, far away from Class C. "I haven't seen Hikigaya-kun in the library much in the last month. I've already finished reading the books we exchanged last time, so I haven't had the chance to talk to Hikigaya-kun about the content of this book."

In addition to the surveillance incident, Hikigaya was also very busy with club affairs last month. Not to mention the library, he returned to the dormitory quite late at night. It was true that he had not seen the girl in front of him very often.

"I'm also a Class C student, so I naturally know what not to say. So please ask Ishizaki-san to go back and tell Ryuen-san that I know my limits. I think you should be satisfied with that!"

Hiyori looked back at Ishizaki as if he had thought of something. Ishizaki said with a silly smile, "As you wish." After all, he was caught in the middle and didn't want to offend both sides.

Afterwards, Hikigaya and Hiyori walked to the beach far away from Class C. On the other side, after receiving Ishizaki's report, Ryuuen just snorted coldly and did not take any other action.

Not long after, Horikita, Ayanokouji and others also came to the beach and looked at the outrageous scene in front of them, their faces also full of shock and confusion. Not only Class D, but also Ichinose and Kanzaki from Class B seemed to be planning to investigate the situation of Class C and followed closely.

It can be said that the extravagant fun of Class C spread throughout the entire grade in an instant, especially the students in Class D, who, besides ridicule, were mostly envious!

The school had clearly said it was an island vacation, but now it has turned into an island survival game. Originally, it was nothing for everyone to suffer together, but Class C suddenly did this, and many people in Class D felt particularly unbalanced.

So when Hikigaya returned to the camp, he saw the stupid duo Ike and Yamauchi constantly expressing their dissatisfaction and ridicule towards Class C.

"Hikigaya-kun, a girl asked me to give this to you."

Sakura found Hikigaya and handed him a note. According to Sakura, it was in the morning when everyone was out and there were only a few girls guarding the camp. A purple-haired girl from Class A came to the Class D camp and handed this note to Sakura, asking her to give the note to Hikigaya.

Class A, the girl with purple hair?

The girl who always looked disgusted suddenly appeared in Hikigaya's mind.

The shrine?

Hikigaya opened the note and found a series of incomprehensible numbers and symbols, but he knew what it was at a glance.

"Momi code?"

Hikigaya briefly recalled the corresponding decryption table and immediately deciphered it. This was a location coordinate and time. Was this some kind of spy meeting?

Hikigaya was a little speechless, but he still went to the appointment at the location on the note in the afternoon. It was a relatively hidden bush near the river. As soon as Hikigaya appeared, Kamuro's voice came from behind him.

"I was worried that you couldn't figure out what was said above."

Kamuro, wearing sportswear, crossed his arms, looking very satisfied.

"Hey, Kamishiro, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"What's going on? You don't know?"

Kamuro frowned and walked up to Hikigaya: "Didn't that Sakayanagi tell you?"

"say what?"

"what?"

Kamuro's eyes widened, and then he gritted his teeth as if he had realized something: "Damn it! Sakayanagi must have done this on purpose!"

"Anyway, until this special exam is over, I will keep you updated on Katsuragi's situation. Got it?"

Kamuro seemed to be venting his frustrations towards Sakayanagi on Hikigaya, his tone and attitude were extremely bad.

"So Sakayanagi wants you to be the insider!"

Hikigaya had a strange look on his face. He didn't expect that the little scoundrel Sakayanagi was so considerate and used his subordinates as spies. Was he afraid that he couldn't kill Katsuragi?

Come to think of it, Katsuragi is really miserable. His current situation is that he is attacked from all sides. He has to resist external threats and deal with internal conflicts. No wonder he has to keep a serious face all day long.

"By the way, from now on, this place will serve as the meeting place at this time every day. If I have other things to do and can't come, I will mark it in advance."

Kamuro warned.

"There's one more very important thing I need to tell you. Ryuuen from Class C sold 200 points worth of supplies to Katsuragi..."

174

Chapter 174: Gambler.

After parting with Kamuro, Hikigaya's expression was very strange.

From the information just revealed by Kamuro, Ryuen found Katsuragi and transferred 200 points worth of daily necessities to Class A. As the price of the transaction, Class A will pay 2 personal points to each person in Class C, for a total of 80 personal points per month until graduation.

When Hikigaya heard the news, his first reaction was that his plan had been leaked?

But he immediately rejected this idea. It should be that Long Yuan had the same idea as him and chose the tactic of selling points. Instead of using it to convert into an uncertain amount of class points, it is better to exchange it for benefits that can be obtained immediately.

"But Long Yuan is really ruthless. He actually sold 200 points at once?"

Hikigaya couldn't help but be surprised by Ryuuen's generosity. You know, the score difference between Class C and Class B is about 200 points. According to normal ideal situation estimates, this special exam can at least increase the class points by more than 200 points.

Would Longyuan just give up such a great opportunity?

Moreover, the remaining 100 points were barely enough to cover the expenses of the Class C students on the uninhabited island for seven days. In addition, he had seen Class C's entertainment activities on the beach before, so Hikigaya carefully recalled the prices of snacks, drinks, and various entertainment equipment on the beach.

"It should be around 80 to 90."

Hikigaya remembers very clearly the items that were exchanged for points, which means that the remaining 100 points of Class C were spent on enjoyment!

"Are you planning to completely implement the zero-score strategy?"

Hikigaya had roughly guessed Ryuuen's intention, which was actually exactly the same as Class D's plan. However, compared to Class D who were still thinking about the remaining points, it was obvious that Ryuuen was more ruthless, or more thorough, and he directly squandered the remaining 100 points.

"So Class C doesn't plan to spend seven days on an uninhabited island?"

However, Hikigaya thought of another thing. What about Ibuki?

Could it be that this was the reason for the breakup with Long Yuan?

But it doesn’t look like it?

Hikigaya always felt that Ryuen was planning something. At least based on his understanding of Ryuen, this guy was not someone who would give up so easily.

In the evening, Hikigaya unexpectedly learned a piece of news from Hirata that all the students in Class C had evacuated back to the cruise ship, and the students of Class C could no longer be seen on the beach.

The reactions of the students in Class D varied to this news, but most of them were either gloating or envious!

At this time, Horikita found Hikigaya, but before Horikita could speak, Hikigaya frowned and asked: "You didn't rest today?"

Although Horikita looked much better than yesterday, Hikigaya still noticed that Horikita looked a little haggard and tired.

Horikita didn't seem to expect Hikigaya to say something like this, and she felt an unexpected strange feeling in her heart.

Seeing Horikita remain silent, Hikigaya couldn't help but sigh, his tone becoming more serious: "Your body isn't fully recovered yet. If you continue to neglect your physical exertion like this, it will easily lead to a relapse. This state of being almost sick is prone to recurrence and is also the easiest to ignore!"

Looking at Horikita in front of him, Hikigaya subconsciously thought of Komachi. Komachi had experienced the same thing as Horikita before. She felt that her body had recovered after taking some medicine, so she did not pay attention to rest and diet, and sure enough, she fell ill again!

That's why Hikigaya specifically reminded Horikita to pay attention to rest. The environment for survival in the wild is not good and is very complicated. Even in summer, the temperature difference between morning and evening in the forest is quite large. If you don't pay attention to rest, your condition will become worse.

"I, I'll pay attention."

Horikita surprisingly didn't refute and replied quietly.

Seeing Horikita like this, Hikigaya didn't want to say anything more to her, but he could guess the reason why Horikita came to see him: "You came to see me to talk about Class C, right?"

Horikita nodded and looked at Hikigaya with a complicated expression. "Class C's behavior is truly unusual. They're completely wasting points on purpose. Furthermore, all the Class C students on the beach have returned to the cruise ship, meaning they've withdrawn from the exam. This means the 300 points awarded by the school should have been deducted."

"so what?"

"So what I'm saying is that Class C might have resold their points beforehand, just like our class!"

Horikita said confidently: "Because Class B and Class C are direct competitors, the one who will be resold is definitely Class A!"

"It seems that you are not deceived by the smoke screen in front of you."

Hikigaya nodded.

After hearing Hikigaya's praise, Horikita couldn't help but clench her fists slightly: "As expected, Hikigaya, you think so too!"

In fact, after Horikita saw the situation of Class C on the beach, her first reaction was that they were also doing the same as Class D, exchanging points for daily necessities and reselling them to other classes!

"I, I want to hear your opinion."

"My point of view?"

Hikigaya looked at Horikita in surprise and shook his head: "Since you asked this question, you should have the answer in your heart."

Horikita was slightly startled when she heard this, then nodded, looking at Ibuki who was standing alone in the distance. "Indeed, but I'm not sure yet, and there are still many things I can't figure out."

"If Class C really has some plan, it's likely they'll be exposed sooner or later."

Hikigaya also followed Horikita's gaze to look at Ibuki in the distance. He was not too anxious about what Ryuen's plan was. The enemy was in the dark and we were in the light, so we had to wait and see. Now it depended on who would lose patience and reveal a flaw first.

Horikita seemed to agree with Hikigaya's statement, but then she seemed to remember something and said, "Oh, there's one more thing. When I went to the beach today to check on Class C, I ran into Ichinose from Class B. Class B also took in a student from Class C, a boy named Kaneda. It seems he had a conflict with that student named Ryuen, and was beaten up and kicked out. He's currently staying at Class B's camp."

"Oh?"

Hikigaya couldn't help but narrow his eyes. Horikita's information was unexpectedly useful. It also allowed Hikigaya to connect some things that he didn't quite understand before.

Is this really what Long Yuan was planning?

This is indeed a very bold and risky plan, and Ryuuen has completely seen through the [key point] of this special exam. If successful, Class C will be the biggest winner of this uninhabited island special exam!

However, the risk and uncertainty are also very high, and a mistake can easily lead to a complete loss.

Sure enough, Ryuuen is still Ryuuen, still that mad dog, but in Hikigaya's opinion, this Ryuuen's plan has too many loopholes. To put it nicely, it is radical, and to put it bluntly, it is a gamble!

Thinking of this, Hikigaya couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Chapter 175: Class B can’t hide its secrets.

On the third day on the uninhabited island, Hikigaya was still assigned the task of going out to explore. Hikigaya first went to the beach, and sure enough, the students of Class C were nowhere to be seen.

After pondering for a moment, Hikigaya decided to go to Class B's camp to check the situation. Hikigaya stopped near Class B's camp, and soon the students of Class B discovered Hikigaya. Not long after, Kanzaki came out, and unexpectedly, Ichinose was not seen.

Judging from the situation, Ichinose might be out, and Kanzaki is responsible for staying in the camp. This time, Kanzaki welcomed Hikigaya into the camp. After seeing Hikigaya's puzzled expression, Kanzaki sighed.

"Ichinose said Hikigaya is a trustworthy person."

After saying that, Kanzaki looked at Hikigaya with a strange expression. Hikigaya naturally saw the meaning in Kanzaki's eyes and touched his head awkwardly.

"How can I be trusted?"

"I also want to know."

Kanzaki said quietly.

Hikigaya could only pretend not to hear, and then asked directly: "Kanzaki, I heard that you took in a student named Kaneda from Class C, is that correct?"

Kanzaki nodded and said that the other party went out with other classmates to collect wild fruits. When mentioning this student from Class C, a trace of worry flashed across Kanzaki's face.

It seems that he is still a little worried about Ichinose's decision, just like Class D's attitude towards Ibuki in the beginning, suspecting that the other party may be a spy.

"But I heard that all the students in Class C have retreated. I'm not sure whether Ryuuen has really given up or has some other plans."

It is obvious that Kanzaki is also very worried about Ryuen.
