Akazawa Izumi's suggestion immediately drew the ire of many students present.

"Why not just let Misaki take the position? She's Misaki after all!"

That's right, if you read the name Misaki in English, it's exactly Misaki, which is one of the reasons why her classmates chose her to be the non-existent person.

Of course, the main reason is that Misaki Mei usually doesn't like to talk at school and is rather withdrawn, so she doesn't have any friends to speak up for her.

Fujioka Misaki frowned upon seeing this, the girl unaware of the meaning of "non-existent people".

However, judging from the situation, isn't my sister's situation in class a bit too...?

Before Misaki could speak up for her sister, she heard her sister speak first.

"no need!"

"Just let me pretend I don't exist. Anyway, it won't make any difference if you choose again, right?"

The girl's speech instantly satisfied the disgruntled crowd below the stage, and Akazawa Izumi, seeing this, didn't dare to say anything more.

The only one who was dissatisfied was Misaki Mei's younger sister, Fujioka Misaki.

However, Bai Ye did speak at this moment.

"In that case, Misaki and I shouldn't have to abide by your so-called rules, right?"

"what!"

"After all, I don't want to play any self-deceiving tricks with you here!"

Bai Ye wore a mocking expression.

"Bai Ye! Who are you calling self-deceiving?"

Akazawa Izumi was a little angry.

However, Bai Ye would not indulge them.

"Isn't it obvious? Sakakibara Kouichi is already dead, which proves that this year is going to be a year of trouble. But you still refuse to believe it. There are exactly 40 people in the classroom now, excluding Misaki and me, who are not officially enrolled as auditors."

"What kind of 'non-existent people' are you doing? Isn't that just a way to make sure there are only 39 people left in the classroom?"

Bai Ye's words made some of the students in the class suddenly realize what was going on.

"That seems to make sense!"

"I remember the rumor about the curse was that if it happened in a year of misfortune, the deceased would blend into the class, and there would be one more person in the classroom, turning a class of 40 into 41. The curse would also forcibly alter everyone's memories, making everyone believe that the deceased was a classmate they had spent three years with."

"But now that you mention it, it seems that after Sakakibara Koichi died, there are exactly 40 people left in our classroom, excluding the two auditors, including you, Shiroya!"

"From this perspective, continuing to use the strategy of using non-existent people will actually reduce the number of people in the classroom from 40. Or perhaps death has already begun, making the strategy of using non-existent people useless!"

After hearing the analysis from the clever students below, a sense of fear instantly filled the classroom again.

The students in the class once again made a mess of things.

Upon seeing this, Akazawa Izumi on the podium gritted her teeth and glared at Byakuya with a hint of resentment.

The girl actually knew Bai Ye's thoughts very well.

Even the young girl knew that this year might really be a year of trouble.

But we can't just say it like Bai Ye did, making everyone feel insecure!

That's why the girl pretended nothing was wrong and continued to explain the only useful countermeasure the team had so far.

Its purpose is no longer to ensure everyone's safety through this measure.

Akazawa Izumi only hoped that this strategy could temporarily calm the emotions of her classmates before figuring out a better solution later.

However, his plans were disrupted by Bai Ye's single sentence.

No wonder the girl looks at Bai Ye with such a murderous gaze.

Although Bai Ye could roughly guess the girl's thoughts, he also knew that the girl was indeed trying her best to ensure the safety of all her classmates.

But who can blame them when the girl's method of calming people down is based on bullying her own Misaki Mei?

Even Misaki Mei herself didn't really care.

She glanced at Misaki beside her.

The girl was also very happy that her older sister no longer had to be ignored.

Seeing the girl's happy face, Byakuya, with a rather wicked sense of humor, told Misaki a bloody truth.

"Actually, even if your sister didn't become this so-called non-existent person, no one would talk to her normally."

"Why?"

"Because she has absolutely no friends!"

"what!?"

Then Misaki realized that, in that case, it didn't really matter whether her older sister was this non-existent person or not.

He ignored the girl's stunned expression.

Then Bai Ye simply took the girl's small hand.

She gestured to Sakuragi Yukari, who was standing next to her as the class representative.

He then pulled the girl along and followed the class monitor out of the classroom.

Why did you drag me out here?

Misaki still doesn't understand the situation.

Bai Ye simply rolled his eyes at the girl.

"Don't you feel like something's missing when you're sitting in the classroom?"

"What's missing?"

"Move the table!"

"Oh!"

......

Walking on the way to the old school building.

Sakuragi Yukari, the class representative, was very curious about Byakuya and Shiro coming to her class to audit the lessons.

"Um, Byakuya-kun and Fujioka-kun, why did you choose to audit our class?"

As Sakuragi Yukari walked, she turned her head to look at Byakuya.

"Judging from Bai Ye's remarks just now, it seems that you are very familiar with the curse on our Class 3, Grade 3. Then why did you come to contact our Class 3 and even personally go to Class 3 to listen in?"

"Aren't you even a little afraid that you too might suffer the curse of death?"

"what!"

The girl's question almost made Bai Ye laugh. Of course, based on the principle that ignorance is bliss, Bai Ye didn't actually laugh at the girl; he simply spoke confidently to her.

"Not afraid!"

Fujioka Misaki, who was standing next to Byakuya, gave the same answer. However, the girl's confidence differed from Byakuya's.

The reason the girl wasn't afraid was because...

"Because the White Night and the Mercury Lamp will protect me!"

Seeing the two so confident, Sakuragi Yukari didn't say much, assuming they were simply unaware of the horror of the curse.

However, upon hearing Fujioka Misaki's words, the girl began gossiping about the relationship between the two.

"You two seem to have a really good relationship! Are you perhaps a couple?"

"Not yet!"

"You can say that!"

The girl's gossip yielded two different answers, given simultaneously.

Upon seeing this, Squad Leader Gali gave a knowing smile.

Then the three of them arrived at the old school building and found two relatively clean tables. This time, Bai Ye acted like a gentleman, which was quite rare for him.

Instead of letting the girl carry her own desk, Bai Ye simply carried one in each hand back to the classroom.

Just before entering the classroom, Bai Ye gave the class monitor a meaningful look.

"Young lady! I see that your name belongs to the wood element, which means you are naturally incompatible with umbrellas. You'd better avoid having too much contact with umbrellas indoors during this period."

"what?"

Without waiting for the girl's surprise, he turned and went into the classroom.

The classroom at this moment.

The team members have already calmed down the students who were scared.

Upon seeing Bai Ye return, Akazawa Izumi on the podium couldn't help but glare fiercely at him.

Then Bai Ye heard the girl continue speaking.

"We now have to announce to everyone that disaster may be coming."

"Therefore, in order to prepare for the possible calamities that may come next."

"I hope everyone will submit a report with detailed personal information. At the same time, I will work with the students in our response team to summarize the lessons learned from previous years' classes and compile a safety manual."

"We have compiled a list of things that need to be carefully considered, as well as ways to seek help in case of various dangers."

Akazawa Izumi said.

"Regarding this safety report, once I've drafted it, I'll ask the teacher to come and explain it to us in detail, to ensure that it's implemented thoroughly and that everyone's safety comes first!"

"In addition, I hope everyone will stay calm and cooperate actively in the future, and avoid making the same mistake of losing their composure again."

"I assure you all here!"

At this point, Akazawa Izumi also felt a lack of confidence, but as the leader of the countermeasures team, she had to show her spirit and give everyone enough confidence and hope.

So she still mustered her courage and said it.

"Our task force will definitely investigate the curse of Class 3-3, Grade 3, and we will do our best to ensure that everyone present can spend their final year of junior high school safely!"

Perhaps because Koichi Sakakibara had never visited the class or interacted with them, his death did not feel very real to the students present.

Nowadays, students only know about the calamities of curses from hearsay.

So

After Akazawa Izumi finished making her promise, most of the students actually believed that they could lead them safely through the year.

The classroom erupted in enthusiastic applause.

The exciting morning class thus came to a close amidst applause.

As soon as get out of class ended, many students surrounded Bai Ye, wanting to ask him the usual questions about his hobbies, what school he attended before, and why he came to audit their class.

However, since most of the girls who surrounded Byakuya were infatuated with infatuated girls and didn't have a favorite character in the story, he coldly dismissed them all.

Secondly, because of Byakuya's previous words, the strategy of the so-called non-existent person was canceled. Without Misaki Mei's connection, several classmates came to talk to Fujioka Misaki.

Unlike Byakuya, Misaki was unhappy about her older sister being isolated at school, but she also knew that it was probably partly due to her sister's withdrawn and quiet personality.

So Misaki quickly got along well with the girls who surrounded her.

It seems she wanted to use her own social skills to help her older sister better integrate into the class.

Bai Ye spent a few days in this new world, searching for girls to participate in the Rose Game while enjoying her happy daily life slacking off with her two beautiful sisters.

The atmosphere in the class has been relatively harmonious these past few days, and nothing particularly dangerous or fatal has occurred.

Just as Izumi Akazawa had described, the safety manual she compiled was distributed to all the students the very next day.

As promised, the girl found Ms. Reiko Mikami, who had returned to school after attending Koichi Sakakibara's funeral, and gave everyone a thorough explanation of some of the cases in the safety manual.

However, Byakuya and Fujioka Misaki, who had always been outsiders, never expected that they would also receive the girl's handbook.

Seeing that Akazawa Izumi looked somewhat resentful yet also aloof and afraid of being affected, she handed me the booklet.

Bai Ye also developed a better impression of the team leader in charge of countermeasures.

The classroom of Class 3, Grade 3, maintained this usual atmosphere until this day.
