In practice, I originally just wanted to be a slacker.

They stared at each other, a little awkward.

Then Tatsuya Kamio went straight to his bedside, took off his shoes, and crawled into bed.

"Um, what are you planning to do about Chabashira-sensei's instructions?"

……

Can't read back.

Ayanokouji was speechless. Did this guy hate me that much?

I didn't do anything out of line, did I?

Kiyotaka Ayanokoji was completely baffled.

While Tatsuya Kamio was resting in his room, Ryuen was holding a meeting in a room on the ship.

Besides Long Yuan and his black bodyguard, there were two other people present: a thin man with a watermelon-shaped haircut and glasses.

This person is named Kaneda Satoru. He is one of the few intellectuals in Class C. He not only has excellent academic performance, but also has the ability to adapt in other aspects.

The other one was a girl with short blue hair. Her eyes looked somewhat fierce, and you could tell from her posture that she had undergone a long period of training.

Mio Ibuki, the only girl in Class C's fighting faction, has systematically studied martial arts. Even men who are taller and bigger than her are probably no match for her.

"That's the plan. Do I need to repeat it?"

"I'm fine with that, but could you please go easy on me?" Kaneda Satoru was the first to respond to Ryuen's words.

"I'll be careful, and if it's too fake, I won't be able to fool those people, right?"

Listening to Ryuen's casual words, Kindaichi Satoru gave a helpless, bitter smile.

Will your plan really work?

"Don't worry, Class B and Class D are a bunch of naive guys. As long as you're clever enough, it'll be a piece of cake."

A smile appeared on Long Yuan's lips as he looked at the note that had been handed to him when he got off the bus.

On the other side, perhaps because he had eaten something, Tatsuya Kamio slept for more than an hour this time. When he woke up, there was no one in the room.

Just as Tatsuya Kamio finished packing his things and was about to take a cold shower, the ship's loudspeaker suddenly came on.

[Attention all students: If you have time, please gather on the deck. We will soon see the island, and you will surely witness some very interesting sights in a short time.]

Meaningful scenery, you wouldn't normally say that, would you?

It seems the guy who designed the exam really is a terrible riddle-maker.

Can't you just say it clearly? Seriously!

Can't the riddle teller just die?!

Except for me.

Unlike most students who were stuck on the first-floor deck, Tatsuya Kamio found a good spot on the second floor.

This is an ice cream shop. Near the fence is a large parasol, where Tatsuya Kamio is sitting and watching the farce below.

"Hey, you're in the way, get out of the way, you defective products."

The D-class students who were the first to occupy the VIP spots on the deck were pushed aside by the students from the other class, and Ayanokouji even fell to the ground as a result.

Tsk, this guy is really good at pretending. Isn't he afraid of capsizing in the gutter and falling straight into the sea?

"what you do!"

Then, Sudo's roar came. Although he hadn't been pushed, he couldn't help but get angry when he saw Ayanokouji's expression. After all, they were classmates.

"Hmph, you all know how this school is structured, right? This is a meritocratic school. Class D has no human rights; flawed products have to behave like flawed products. We are the noble class."

I wondered who it was, but it's Totsuka Yahiko! He really knows how to make me laugh.

"Oh, Tatsuya, so you've been here all along."

"Hiyori, are you looking for me?"

Today, Shiina was wearing casual clothes, a gray-white dress with a small vest over it, which looked very cute.

"Because I haven't seen Da Ye for several days."

Um, isn't that a bit too ambiguous?

Before Kamio Tatsuya could reply, the ship suddenly changed course. The port was already within reach, but the ship suddenly turned around and began to circle around the island.

Even when circling the island, they didn't slow down. What kind of scenery could they possibly see? Are you kidding me?

As the ship circled the island, Tatsuya Kamio got a general idea of ​​what the island looked like.

At the highest point of the island, there is a small hill with a cave entrance, but the entrance doesn't look natural at all. Does that mean someone once lived here?

In addition, Kamio Tatsuya also saw that there were huts, waterfalls and towers on the island, as well as rivers, roads and beaches.

It really is an artificial island; at least I didn't see any large, ferocious wild animals.

It seems this exam really is just about setting up camp and surviving on a deserted island for a week.

Chapter 105 This isn't what I was expecting.

After sailing around the island, the ship finally stopped at the port.

We are about to land on the uninhabited island owned by our school. All students are requested to change into their sportswear within 30 minutes and, after confirming the required backpacks and luggage, bring their mobile phones to assemble on the deck.

Please leave all personal belongings in the room. Since the restroom is still accessible at the moment, please use it if needed.

Upon hearing this broadcast, many students from Class D excitedly left the deck and went back to their rooms to pack their belongings.

"I'm going to pack my things too. See you on the island."

After greeting Shiina, Kamio Tatsuya left. He wasn't thinking about packing his things, but rather about going back to his room to use the toilet.

Sigh, I have to squat down to use the toilet before leaving the house; it's a bad habit I developed in my past life...

Back in his cabin, the other three people had already returned, with Kamio Tatsu being the last.

"Welcome back, Kamio-kun."

Hirata greeted Kamio Tatsuya warmly, then added, "You still have some time. Change your clothes first, then pack your luggage."

Hey, are you my mom?

However, faced with Hirata's gentle smile, Kamio Tatsuya could only nod.

Regardless of what his problems are, at least his way of interacting with people makes others feel very comfortable.

"I've already packed my things, I'm going to the restroom."

"What's wrong? Do you have an upset stomach?"

Well, you're being a bit too concerned, aren't you?

"Um, I just usually go to the bathroom before leaving the house, don't worry about it."

About ten minutes later, when Kamio Tatsuya came out of the restroom, Ayanokouji and Koenji were gone, and only Hirata was still waiting there.

Um, bro, there's really no need for that.

"let's go."

"Ah."

Kamio Tatsuya casually changed into sportswear, then picked up his luggage and left the room with Hirata.

On the deck, most of the students from the four classes had already gathered. Kamio Tatsuya and Hirata quickly walked to the boys' group of Class D.

Then, as soon as he came in, girls immediately started showing concern for Hirata.

"Hirata, what's wrong?"

"Are you feeling unwell? Why are you so late?"

Hirata responded to each question without showing any impatience.

tsk...

Fortunately, the students in Class D didn't line up as neatly as the students in other classes, so Tatsuya Kamio easily got away from Hirata.

At this moment, the ship had stopped at the port of the uninhabited island. Looking from the deck, the island was indeed very large. According to the previous description, the total area was about half a square kilometer.

If it were a square, it would be about 700 meters long and wide, which is quite a lot for 160 students.

Under the sunlight, you can clearly see the golden beaches and lush green forests on the island. If you could really have a vacation here, it would probably be a wonderful time.

such a pity……

"Now, please disembark in order, starting with the students in your class. Also, mobile phones are not allowed on the island. Please hand them over to your class teacher and then disembark."

At the command of the teacher holding a megaphone, the students walked down the steps of the cruise ship in order and handed in their mobile phones.

"We will now begin roll call for Class D. Those whose names are called, please answer correctly."

After disembarking, the students of Class D lined up as instructed by Teacher Chabashira, and then roll call began. However, Chabashira Sae's attire was different from usual.

No longer wearing the same old gray office lady suit, but dressed in sportswear similar to that of students.

After a brief roll call, the class's homeroom teacher, who was also the first-grade English teacher, Majima Tomoya, walked up to the students with a megaphone.

"First of all, I am very glad that you have all arrived here safely today. However, on the other hand, although there is only one student, it is also very regrettable that someone is unable to attend due to health reasons."

Sakayanagi?

Kamio Tatsuya turned his head to look at Ban's camp, but saw nothing. Did they really not come? Or were they too short and blocked?

While Ms. Majima was saying these words, some people had already started setting up tents on the beach and bringing out tables to assemble computers.

"Now, we're going to begin the first special exam of the year."

"Huh? A special exam? What's going on?"

Unsurprisingly, the students from Class D immediately made the scene noisy. In contrast, although some students from the first three classes wavered, everyone remained calm.

That's it……

A bunch of trash.

Do I still have to take them to class?

You think too much, are you trying to exhaust me?

"The exam period will last for one week, starting now, and will end at noon on August 7th. You will spend the next week living in a group on this deserted island, and that is the content of the exam."

It's August 1st now. It's supposed to be a week until August 7th, but it's actually only six days, since it's already noon.

"First of all, it should be noted that this is a special exam designed based on real corporate training, which is very practical and realistic."

"During the exam, you are not allowed to board the ship without a valid reason. During this period, you will be responsible for everything from your sleeping quarters to your food and drinking water."

The school will only provide each class with two tents, two flashlights, and a box of matches at the beginning. There is no limit to the amount of sunscreen, and each student will be given a toothbrush.

Finally, as a special case, there are no restrictions on the use of feminine hygiene products by female students. Please request these from your homeroom teacher. That's all.

Then, as if in response to his words, staff members immediately brought out the supplies provided by the school.

Just as Ms. Majima said, each class had two tents, two flashlights, a box of matches, and a makeshift toilet.

"What?! Is this what real island survival feels like? I've never heard of such an absurd thing!"

This isn't an anime or a comic book! And there are only two tents—not enough to sleep everyone! And what are we going to do about meals?!

Well said, Chi!

I'm very impressed with you now.

While everyone else was still in a daze, Chi was the first to see the situation clearly.

That's right, these two tents can't accommodate a class of forty people, unless you can divide the tents into bunk beds to make perfect use of the space, but that's obviously impossible.

Not only Chi, but students from other classes also began to protest. It wasn't that they couldn't accept wilderness survival on a deserted island, but rather that they couldn't accept the school's approach.

"Teacher, but it's summer vacation now. We were brought here under the guise of a trip. If it were corporate training, I don't think they would do something like this to deceive us."

Ms. Majima nodded in agreement with the students' reasonable rebuttals.

“I see. But I’m about to explain this… Even if this is a special exam, you don’t need to think about it so deeply.”

You can do whatever you want this week. Swimming or barbecuing at the beach, chatting with friends around a campfire is also a good idea. In short, the theme of this special exam is 'freedom'.

During this week, you will make all the decisions yourselves. If you don't want to participate, you can simply withdraw.
