Demon Slayer: I was taken home by Shinobu Kocho at the beginning.

Then, whether intentionally or accidentally, he stepped on Tatsuya Kamio's instep.

Thankfully, Kamuro wasn't wearing high heels, and thankfully, winter shoes are thicker.

"Hmm, not bad expression, Masumi. Let me take a picture first."

As he spoke, Tatsuya Kamio took out his phone and recorded Kamuro's current expression.

"Stop messing around, explain what's going on!"

Kamuro stole Tatsuya Kamio's phone.

"It's very simple. Ayanokouji actually did it to attract Ryuen's attention and then deliberately expose himself to Ryuen's watchful eye."

What are the benefits of doing this?

“Yes.” Tatsuya Kamio smiled. “You all know what kind of person Ryuen is. He certainly won’t let it go once he finds out someone wants to use him.”

So, guided by Ayanokouji, he found out who did it and then planned to punish Ayanokouji with violence.

As a result, Ayanokouji retaliated, and that's what happened.

After a brief summary of what had happened, Kamuro seemed to understand but not quite, while Sakayanagi looked at Kamio Tatsuya with a strange smile on his face.

"You must have played a major role in this, for example, by using Ryuen to test Ayanokouji's strength."

"You're really annoying. Don't you understand the principle of seeing through things but not saying them?"

"Really? Who was it that just said I can't make friends? Wasn't it you?"

"I'm just telling the truth."

"What a coincidence, so am I."

……

"Masumi, let's go."

"Let's chat for another two minutes, you two have nothing else to do, right?" Sakayanagi said with a smile, trying to persuade them to stay. "Or are you scared?"

afraid?

Would I be afraid of you?

Watch how I break your defenses in one move.

"It's a pity that Ayanokouji is now entangled with Ryuen, making your day of facing him even more distant."

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the cane that Sakayanagi was holding creaked.

Haha, you've already broken through her defenses?

They are utterly vulnerable!

"By the way, although Ayanokouji said he did that to attract Ryuen's attention, is that really the truth?"

"Did you notice?" Sakayanagi's smile faded slightly. "He's issuing a challenge to me, and I've already decided to accept it."

War letter?

Tatsuya Kamio understood after a moment's thought.

“I see,” he said, a cold smile appearing on his face. “Then you two are really no good.”

Ayanokouji's meaning was simple: if you want to fight me, you'd better defeat Ichinose first, otherwise don't bother me.

Sakayanagi accepted the challenge.

In other words, Ichinose will be drawn into the conflict between the two.

However, what Kamio Tatsuya was more curious about was how Sakayanagi planned to defeat Ichinose.

"I thought you had already accepted it, after all, Pper Shffle's result was a crushing defeat for Ban."

Mentioning this made Sakayanagi's expression even more unpleasant.

Pper Shffle lost the exam to Class C, which she could attribute to Class C's cunning, as they had bribed Class D. This can be seen from the fact that several Class C students scored 800 points.

But losing to Class B was something she hadn't expected.

Afterwards, she obtained the exam questions for all four classes from the school.

The students in this class faced test questions that were one to two levels more difficult than those in the other three classes.

When the strength of the two teams is roughly equal, losing is inevitable.

The question was so excellent that it seemed like something a first-year student could come up with.

Later, in order to make her lose to Mingbai, Kamio Tatsuya directly told her that it was the question that he had suggested Ryuen spend points to ask the second-year students to help with.

After getting the answer from Tatsuya Kamio, Sakayanagi wasn't actually that surprised.

However, although it wasn't unexpected, I still felt a sense of frustration.

At the same time, they realized their own limitations. They only saw the first-year students, but they overlooked the older students who had more experience than them.

Chapter 227 Sakayanagi, you call yourself a genius?

Looking at Sakayanagi like this, Kamio Tatsuya also felt curious.

"So, didn't you pride yourself on being a true genius? Didn't you lose to me quite easily?"

"True geniuses don't give up completely because of one or two failures."

Sakayanagi recovered immediately.

Whether Sakayanagi is a true genius or not is unclear, but at least during the preferential treatment exam, she did find all the preferential treatment recipients in a short period of time.

But from this point of view, her thinking ability is still very good.

"Really? Good luck then." Kamio Tatsuya replied dismissively. "But I think I heard you say that you started learning chess because of Ayanokouji, right?"

"Yes."

"Why don't you just invite him to play chess? That way you can decide the winner immediately. If it's that easy to get rid of your pestering, I don't think Ayanokouji would refuse."

"Could you please stop calling me some kind of perverted woman?" Sakayanagi's small face showed dissatisfaction. "Besides, my feelings for Ayanokouji are just about wanting to defeat her, nothing more."

"Okay, okay, but why are you suddenly telling me this? Whatever your feelings for him are, it's none of my business, right?"

Tatsuya Kamio found the latter part of Sakayanagi's words quite inexplicable.

I didn't say you had any special feelings for Ayanokouji.

"Hmph." Sakayanagi sneered, "Speaking of which, both Ayanokouji and I have lost to you before. What do you say, if the two of us team up, we'll take you down first?"

Are you kidding me, bro? How did you suddenly drag me into this?

Although it would be troublesome if Sakayanagi and Ayanokouji joined forces, Kamio Tatsuya would never back down at this time.

"If you can do it, then go ahead." Kamio Tatsuya glanced at Sakayanagi Arisu in front of him. "But before that, you should think of a way to keep your position in the class."

You guys are only one special exam away from Class B, right? You call yourself a genius, but you're almost losing your place in the class.

To be honest, I really think there's something fishy about how you were assigned to this class. So far, all you've shown is that you have relatively high academic ability.

However, in terms of academic ability, Ichinose from Class B and Yukimura from Class D are in no way inferior to you, and besides, Ichinose doesn't have any physical defects.

"Have you forgotten what happened during the preferential treatment exam?"

"Isn't it just that we found the pattern for selecting preferential treatment recipients before the discussion? I can do that if I want to, it's no big deal."

Tatsuya Kamio continued to provoke Sakayanagi.

"You can't see the upperclassmen, and no matter how much you emphasize that you are a genius, it will be hard for you to convince me."

"You've been provoking me ever since this started."

"Is that so? It's your fault for interrupting my date with Masumi. This is just a small token of respect."

"Don't forget, Kamuro is still in class. Aren't you afraid I'll make a move on her?"

"Heh, before that, I'll take you out first," Kamio Tatsuya sneered, "in a physical sense."

"Hmph, goodbye!"

Watching Sakayanagi suddenly leave, Kamio Tatsuya frowned. He had no idea what Sakayanagi was up to.

But Kamuro suddenly burst out laughing, and it was a very unrestrained laugh.

"Pfft! Hahahaha."

"What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

“This is the first time I’ve ever seen that cripple so angry,” Kamuro said, his eyes gleaming with amusement. “And because of something like this.”

"whats the matter?"

Kamio Tatsuya didn't quite understand.

"It's okay if you don't understand now." Kamuro seemed to be in a very good mood. "But you don't need to worry about me. Although that cripple Sakayanagi is sharp-tongued, she won't attack me first."

"No matter what, we have to be careful." Kamio Tatsuya shook his head. "If anything seems amiss, you must notify me immediately."

"Okay, I understand." Kamuro nodded happily. "By the way, a movie I like is coming out today. Do you want to go see it together?"

"Okay, I'll stay with you today anyway."

So, dating is really just about this: eating, shopping, watching movies, etc. In fact, when two people are together, no matter where they are, it's considered a date.

"There are so many people..."

The two were somewhat discouraged by the people at the movie theater as soon as they arrived.

Not only students, but also school faculty and staff, and even the workers in various facilities throughout the school.

So, we don't go home for Chinese New Year because we can't go back. What's your plan for not going home for Chinese New Year? Do you not want to go back?

Moreover, because the target audience is relatively narrow, the school's movie theater is not very large, with only three screening rooms, all of which are small.

"How about we go sing karaoke?"

"of course can."

Although it's called karaoke, Kamio Tatsuya hadn't heard much of the music in this world, so it was mostly Kamuro singing and Kamio Tatsuya listening.

However, although Kamuro is adorably slow-witted, she seems to have a great talent for art.

She sings very well, and I'm also in the art department. I've heard she performs quite well there. Maybe we could let her develop in that area in the future. It wouldn't hurt for us to copy some of her music.

"Tatsuya, why don't you sing a couple of songs too?"

"I'd rather not, I'm not interested in singing," Tatsuya Kamio immediately refused. "But Masumi, you sing really well. Have you ever considered becoming a singer in the future?"

"Huh? Can I do it?" Kamuro asked doubtfully. "That must be difficult, right?"

“Being an online singer is fine too. You don’t need to sign with a music company. I’ll write the songs, and you can sing them,” Tatsuya Kamio said with a smile. “Once you become famous, you can also try releasing an album.”

"Can you still write songs?"

Kamuro looked on with suspicion. Although she knew that Kamio Tatsuya was very capable, it seemed a bit too omnipotent that he could even write songs.

"Let's go back."

"Go back?" Kamuro looked at him suspiciously. "You're not thinking of running away, are you?"

"What do you take me for?" Tatsuya Kamio said, displeased. "I was planning to write a song for you to sing."

Tatsuya Kamio was not bragging; he truly understood composing.

Of course, this was not acquired through learning, but rather through a skill I won in a December lottery – musical expertise, which includes the ability to compose music.

It's called composing music, but it's really just reproducing songs he heard in his previous life. For Tatsuya Kamio, who has advanced composing skills, it couldn't be easier.

"No, sing it for me a cappella first."

Kamuro looked at Tatsuya Kamio with anticipation.

Seeing this, Tatsuya Kamio had no choice but to clear his throat and begin to sing.

Chapter 228 Kamuro's Love

After the performance ended, Kamuro looked at Tatsuya Kamio as if he were a monster, and then snatched the microphone from Kamio's hand in embarrassment and anger.

"Tatsuya, are you humiliating me?"

"Huh? Where should we begin?"

"You sing much better than me, you're practically a pro, and you still say you're not interested in singing, you idiot!"
