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

The words Yamauchi left behind before he left silenced the atmosphere. If looks could kill, Yamauchi would probably have been torn to pieces by Sakayanagi long ago.

Soon, only four people remained on the scene: Tatsuya Kamio, Arisu Sakayanagi, Kamuro, and Shiina.

"Are you OK?"

Kamuro also walked over at this moment, looking Sakayanagi up and down.

"Don't worry, Masumi-san, it's all thanks to your boyfriend coming to help." After answering Kamuro's question, Sakayanagi looked at Kamio Tatsuya, "I didn't expect you to step up and help me."

"Don't misunderstand, I'm only helping you because your father has been very kind to me." Kamio Tatsuya quickly found a reason for himself.

"Really?" Sakayanagi's eyes were full of laughter. "I thought you had fallen in love with me."

"I am not interested in young girls."

Tatsuya Kamio gave her a disdainful look.

"If you really can't manage, let Masumi take care of you. You're clearly a cripple, why are you trying to be strong?"

Young girl... cripple...

Even though Kamio Tatsuya had just helped him out of a predicament, Sakayanagi still really wanted to smash his leg hard with his cane so that he could experience what it felt like to be a cripple!

No, I'm not lame, I just have a heart condition.

Sakayanagi took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"I remember that during your first semester, you signed withdrawal and transfer agreements with three students in Class D, and Yamauchi was one of them, right?"

"That's right. Besides Yamauchi, Ike, who has already been expelled, and Sudo, who is still in Class D, are all my scapegoats."

This is no secret; if Sakayanagi wanted to investigate, he could easily find out.

"If I wanted to expel Yamauchi-kun from school, would you stop me?"

"It's up to you."

Kamio Tatsuya was not surprised by Sakayanagi's idea.

Sakayanagi's physical limitations have been a long-standing issue, so when she's alone, she'll definitely prioritize paying attention to her surroundings.

So no matter how you look at it, what just happened was a problem within the Yamanouchi area.

Instead of apologizing sincerely, this guy shifted the blame directly onto Sakayanagi.

Let alone Sakayanagi, anyone would probably find it hard to tolerate.

Well, if it were someone like Ichinose, they probably would have tolerated it, or rather, if it were Ichinose, they would definitely have reflected on whether it was their own problem first.

As for Sakayanagi, she is certainly not the kind of person who would swallow her anger, so she will definitely retaliate against Yamauchi later, and it would be standard practice for her to expel him from school.

In other words, we can start calculating the countdown to Yamanouchi's withdrawal from school now.

To be honest, Kamio Tatsuya had given her a hard time several times, but Kamio Tatsuya never gave her a chance, otherwise she would definitely have taken revenge on Kamio Tatsuya.

"If you have nothing else to do, I'll be going now. Masumi, could you please look after her?"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Masumi-kun."

"I've never seen you so polite before."

Kamuro pursed his lips to indicate that he understood.

After that, Tatsuya Kamio nodded to Shiina, who was standing next to him, and then left.

Although the day's classes were over, Tatsuya Kamio's work was not yet finished, because starting tomorrow, students would have to make their own breakfast.

According to the plan discussed with the second and third grades, today is Friday, and the first graders will be responsible for preparing breakfast for Saturday and the weekend.

Therefore, Tatsuya Kamio plans to process the ingredients he can tonight so that he won't be too rushed tomorrow morning.

Chapter 249 The Lazy Koenji Temple

The next day, at five o'clock in the morning, the group members got up to prepare breakfast, with an hour and a half before the six-thirty meeting time.

Since the ingredients had already been prepared the night before, Kamio Tatsu originally planned to get up at six o'clock, as half an hour would be enough time for six people to cook.

However, since it was the first day of this project, we were worried about unexpected events, so after discussion, we decided to get up an hour earlier.

However, this worry was obviously unnecessary. After only half an hour, all that was left to do was steam rice and cook miso soup.

These two tasks, while time-consuming, do not require much effort.

And so, it came to 6:30. Kamio Tatsuya and the others who were in charge of cooking finished their work and went to the dojo to meditate.

"Kamio, Koenji didn't participate in the cleaning at all this morning!"

As soon as I entered, Ishizaki ran over to complain, looking very unhappy.

Kamio Tatsuya then looked at Koenji, who was already sitting on the ground.

"Is that so, Koenji-kun?"

"I couldn't get out of the toilet because of a stomachache." Koenji looked so nonchalant that you couldn't tell he had just been in pain.

"Oh, is that so? You didn't catch a cold, did you? I reminded you yesterday."

"Please don't worry about that. It's just a daily digestive cleanse. I'm unlikely to catch a cold."

Hearing Koenji's reply, Kamio Tatsu was relieved.

Then, he gave Ishizaki a wink, signaling him to stop fooling around.

Although Ishizaki didn't know why Kamio Tatsuya was so nice to Koenji, he held back his temper because of Ryuen's orders.

In fact, he knew in his heart that Kamio Tatsu was not the kind of coward who would back down. When he ripped off Ryuen before, he didn't hold back at all.

Therefore, he couldn't figure out why Kamio Tatsuya was so eager to please Koenji.

"Kōenji, you shouldn't have a stomachache during cleaning time again tomorrow, right?"

"Who knows."

Upon hearing Koenji's answer, Tatsuya Kamio showed a curious expression.

Isn't this guy afraid that I and the students in the class will team up to deliberately get low scores and then use a suicide attack to send him away?

He should know that I have two more places available for me to drop out of school, right?

What does he want to do?

In fact, Koenji was not afraid of Tatsuya Kamio pulling some tricks to get him expelled from school.

And he had certainly anticipated this situation, but even so, he couldn't possibly follow Tatsuya Kamio's orders to sweep the floor.

Even if he drops out of school, he will not be able to be controlled by Tatsuya Kamio.

This is Koenji Temple.

Moreover, for him, whether he dropped out of school or not, it was all the same; there was no difference. At most, he would just be enjoying himself in a different place.

In addition, Koenji Temple also intended to test Tatsuya Kamio.

Since Tatsuya Kamio left Class D, the next two exams have been aimed at Class D. Although he didn't know the specific reason, he could guess the general idea.

In the days to come, Tatsuya Kamio will likely continue to target Class D, and Class D's class points will likely remain at zero for a long time.

Even Koenji was somewhat reluctant to go without pocket money.

It is virtually impossible for Class D to escape this predicament.

Of course, Koenji is confident that he can change the current situation, but it will not benefit him, or rather, the benefits and the price he pays are not equal.

Therefore, Koenji has no intention of doing anything; if asked to contribute to the class, he would rather drop out now.

Moreover, judging from Tatsuya Kamio's actions last semester, it seems that in addition to targeting Class D, he also wants to promote Class C to Class D.

If Tatsuya Kamio wants to be promoted, he cannot ignore Koenji's strength.

Although Koenji is not exerting his power at the moment, a qualified strategist would never underestimate Koenji's strength.

Koenji himself was well aware of this, as was Tatsuya Kamio.

Therefore, Koenji did this to see if Kamio Tatsuya had the courage to eliminate him, this potential obstacle, here.

After all, he wasn't joking when he tried to recruit Kamio Tatsuya; he was very serious.

If Tatsuya Kamio does that, he will consider poaching Tatsuya Kamio to join the Koenji Foundation.

As for dropping out of school, Koenji didn't care at all, because for him, whether or not he graduated from here would not affect his status.

Kamio Tatsu also stopped paying attention to Koenji, as that would only make him more tired.

Frankly speaking, it was unreasonable for Koenji to be at this school, because his demands were different from those of the average student.

After the meditation session, the students in the group went to have breakfast.

The fact that there were no complaints tells you that breakfast was at least alright today.

For the boys, Saturday morning's topic is a classroom lesson, including presentations and such.

“The topic and details of the speech vary each academic year, but the criteria for judgment are always these four things: volume, demeanor, content, and expression.”

As Tatsuya Kamio listened to his teacher's explanation, he looked out the window, because he could just hear the girls' energetic voices coming from outside.

To avoid boys and girls meeting in class, extracurricular assignments are scheduled at different times: boys in the afternoon and girls in the morning.

Right now, the girls are sweating profusely on the playground outside.

Yes, it's a beautiful sight.

Tatsuya Kamio has excellent eyesight; even though they are dozens of meters apart, he can still clearly see the faces of each student.

Of course, that's not the key point. The key point is that when girls exercise, their little white breasts bounce up and down, which is very captivating to watch.

The girls seemed to be running in groups, and Kamuro and Shiina could be seen, but after searching around, Kamio Tatsuya couldn't find Sakayanagi either.

Sure enough, although she participated in the training camp, she still couldn't participate in sports or similar activities.

However, Tatsuya Kamio's attention was not on that; it was on the third-year students. The third-year groups seemed to be quite harmonious, with the group members running in unison.

There was only one exception. Although Tatsuya Kamio didn't know most of the people in that group, he was quite familiar with one of them.

Akane Tachibana was at the very back of the group, looking exhausted, but her appearance was different from the fatigue shown by Shiina, who was a complete klutz when it came to sports.

It's more like they're deliberately slowing down.

How pitiful...

So, besides himself, is Tachibana Akane also a target of Nagumo's attention?

Indeed, if you want to undermine Horikita Manabu, getting Tachibana Akane expelled is a very effective method.

However, this information alone is not enough to confirm the situation. Let's wait for Kamuro's news tonight.

Chapter 250 Nan Yun might really want to win

Since he had no classes in the afternoon, Tatsuya Kamio simply lay in bed all afternoon.

Because none of the members in this group had the desire or responsibility to compete for first place, the group members got along quite well.

In just over a day, everyone had become quite familiar with each other.

Male friendships can sometimes be quite simple.

At dinner time, Tatsuya Kamio did not see Kamuro today; only Shiina was waiting for him at the restaurant entrance.

"Where's Masumi?"

"She said she was worried about Sakayanagi-san, so she's with her," Shiina explained with a smile. "But she's already told me what she found out."

Kamio Tatsuya nodded, seemingly unconcerned.

Since Sakayanagi is physically disabled, it's perfectly reasonable for Kamuro, as her friend, to help her out.

Kamio Tatsuya also learned from Shiina that there was indeed a group of third-year girls who were not getting along well, and this group was, just as Kamio Tatsuya had guessed, the group that Tachibana Akane was in.

In Akane's group, apart from herself who was in the third year, everyone else was a student from the three lower classes.

According to Shiina's description, Akane Tachibana was isolated and often criticized by other students.

People who don't know Akane Tachibana would probably think that this was caused by Akane Tachibana making some mistake.

But who is Tachibana Akane?

She was the former student council secretary, but although she was the student council secretary, her actual work in the student council was more like that of Horikita Manabu's personal assistant.

Horikita Manabu is an extremely picky person, as evidenced by his rejection of Ichinose and Katsuragi's applications to join the student council when the school started.
