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

"That's not enough to beat the other classes."

Tatsuya Kamio glanced at Kiyotaka Ayanokouji. "How afraid are you of being expelled? Isn't this enough? Are you really planning to work for that Chabashira guy?"

"If we can't win, we can't win. Winning isn't necessarily a good thing for Class D now."

Winning isn't a good thing?

Ayanokouji didn't quite understand. Competition... isn't it all about winning?

Around 3 PM, Tatsuya Kamio and Ayanokouji found Class D's campsite near a river by following the smoke from the cooking fire.

The river is surrounded by forests and gravel roads, with a large, flat area where the terminal device is located on a tree in the center.

Moreover, when Tatsuya Kamio and Ayanokouji returned, the tents had already been set up, and there were not only the two provided by the school, but also the ones they had purchased later with points.

In addition, toilets have been set up, the kind that can flush and even shower, and girls are queuing up outside.

Sure enough, coming back late had its advantages; now, we didn't have to set up a tent or gather firewood to start a fire.

"You're back, Kamio-san and Ayanokouji-san." Hirata immediately looked relieved upon seeing Kamio Tatsuya and Ayanokouji. "Huh? Where's Koenji-san?"

“That guy probably won’t be coming back,” Kamio Tatsuya said casually. “Perfect timing. Hirata, I have something to say to you. Ayanokouji, could you please go and call Kushida and tell him I have something to say?”

"Is it about the class leader?"

Tatsuya Kamio nodded.

"The class leader?"

Hirata was immediately startled; he hadn't expected that Kamio Tatsuya would discover such crucial information while out and about.

Soon, Ayanokouji returned with Kushida. Kushida had a slight sheen of sweat on his forehead, indicating that he had been busy with something.

As for why it's not called Horikita...

Once, Tatsuya Kamio also shared valuable information with Horikita, but the other party did not take any action for a month.

So, does it make any difference whether I tell her or not?

"I found the leader of the group over in the cave. He's a guy named Totsuka Yahiko, Katsuragi's lackey."

Despite their suspicions, Hirata and Kushida were still very surprised.

Hirata's face lit up with joy, while Kushida looked at Kamio Tatsuya with adoration.

Okay, now you don't need to act anymore.

Ayanokouji on the other side nodded as if to confirm something.

Next, Kamio Tatsuya recounted what had just happened, and specifically mentioned that he did not personally witness Totsuka Yahiko taking over the base.

Not only did it provide a reasonable personality analysis, but it also allowed me to personally witness the name on the key card.

Therefore, Kushida and Hirata had no doubts about the information that Totsuka Yahiko was the class leader.

Furthermore, Hirata immediately realized the importance of this matter.

"Gentlemen, please don't tell anyone about this. If the class finds out, they might take countermeasures."

"That's why I only called the two of you over."

Hirata nodded, then took out the guidebook and turned to the section on rules related to leaders.

"Although it is said that 'leaders cannot be replaced without a legitimate reason,' I think it is still possible to do so if one wants to... for example, by faking illness to withdraw from the competition."

Kamio Tatsuya glanced at Hirata. Although this guy lacked decisiveness, he still had the ability to think, and he actually thought of this so quickly.

"I see." Tatsuya Kamio frowned. "But faking illness to withdraw from the competition and then changing the leader shouldn't be allowed, right?"

Otherwise, there would be no need to use fake key cards to deceive people; the real leader could simply go out and expose himself, and then feign illness to withdraw from the competition before the final day of the exam.

It's a direct trade-off of 30% self-inflicted damage and 50% injury to the enemy, and it might even benefit three classes. No matter how you look at it, it's a win-win situation.

"I will ask Mr. Chabashira about this. It is a very important matter involving the change of leadership, and Mr. Chabashira should not hide anything from me."

Kushida volunteered to take on this task.

Just then, Tatsuya Kamio spotted a strange figure not far from the camp.

"that is?"

"Oh, she's Ibuki from Class C. Apparently, she was kicked out because she got into a conflict with some of the other students."

Seeing Tatsuya Kamio's confusion, Kushida quickly came out to explain.

She said she got into an argument with a guy in her class, and not only was she beaten up by him, but she was also kicked out of the camp.

It turned out to be the case.

If it's Class C, then it'll definitely be Ryuen who makes the move.

However, to be honest, these guys from Class D really don't learn their lesson. They actually allowed the other side to stay at Class D's camp. Aren't they afraid that the leader's identity will be exposed?

Kamio Tatsuya didn't believe that his verbal agreement with Ryuen would prevent the other party from targeting Class D; he was well aware of that.

And those guys in Class D, you actually fell for that mere self-inflicted injury ploy a second time.

That guy from Longyuan, he really only knows one trick and can make a living off it.

Or is this guy actually a liaison sent by Longyuan?

Chapter 109 The key card is right here, do you want it?

However, Tatsuya Kamio did not try to persuade Hirata to kick her out, because he knew it would be useless.

Given Hirata's kind-hearted nature, even if he knew it was a trap, he probably wouldn't have driven the other party away.

But this made him even more curious: what had Hirata gone through to be assigned to Class D?

Moreover, the time when Yamauchi and Ike were beaten by Ishizaki and the others, Hirata went berserk and directly defeated the three of them.

Is their combat strength really that high?

That's one against three.

Furthermore, I heard afterwards that Hirata specifically went to apologize to Ishizaki and the others...

I don't think it was your fault that time, and the student council didn't punish you, so why did you apologize?

Hirata is full of suspicious points, but that doesn't stop him from being a nice guy now.

However, these are clearly not things we should be exploring right now. What we need to deal with right now is that guy named Ibuki.

"What are you planning to do? Are you going to take her in?"

Hirata nodded somewhat shyly, then frankly expressed his thoughts.

"Well, I can't just abandon people in need. I plan to explain the situation to everyone later."

As expected, Hirata's idea was just as Kamio Tatsuya had guessed: he planned to take in Ibuki.

However, this is not necessarily a bad thing, because if Ibuki is not in Class C, then Class C will lose five points every time roll call is taken, which is seventy points in seven days.

"Do as you please, I'm going to check on that Ibuki."

"I'll go as well."

Seeing that Kushida was about to catch up, Tatsuya Kamio stopped.

What the hell are you doing here?

If you're just here to join in the fun, how am I supposed to ask her about Longyuan?

Fine, let them follow if they want.

Kamio Tatsuya led Kushida toward Ibuki.

Noticing that Tatsuya Kamio and Kushida were approaching, Ibuki's face showed a wary expression.

"Don't be so wary. This is our territory. If we want to kick you out, you won't be able to stay."

Even though Kamio Tatsuya said that, Ibuki had no intention of letting her guard down.

"I heard you got beaten up by your classmates and then kicked out of Class C's camp?"

"So what?"

Wow, this guy is a bit hard to talk to. You're the one begging us to take you in, and he's still acting all high and mighty.

"Is it Longyuan? Can you explain why you had a conflict with that guy Longyuan?"

Why should I tell you something like this?

"Because I need to rule out the possibility that you are a spy. If the other party is in the wrong, there's no problem in telling them, right?"

Kamio Tatsuya said this as a matter of course, but what he actually wanted was for Ibuki to reveal some information about Class C.

Of course, this information was likely deliberately leaked by Longyuan.

As expected, Ibuki hesitated for a moment before explaining the situation.

"That guy Ryuen was planning to spend all his points and have a blast on the island. I disagreed with that, so he beat me up and kicked me out of the camp." He then glared at Kamio Tatsuya. "Are you satisfied now?"

If you're going to make up a lie, at least make it believable, okay? You can't stop him from spending points, so what reason does he have to beat you up?

"Huh? Ryuen-kun is going to use up all his points? And he's going to hit you just because you objected? That's really terrible!"

Hey, hey, hey, Kushida-chan, there's no one else here, you don't need to pretend like this at all.

Kamio Tatsuya glanced at the exaggeratedly expressive Kushida, then began to carefully examine the girl named Ibuki.

With her short blue hair, she looked very cool, and her face was quite cute. Combined with her slightly fierce expression, she could easily be rated seven or eight out of ten.

She has a different style compared to Shiina, and perhaps some people will like it.

"What are you looking at?"

"No, I just think that since Long Yuan went to such lengths, his little face is now swollen beyond recognition."

"That's none of your business. What exactly are you trying to say?"

"Um... what I mean is, do you want to get revenge on Longyuan?"

"Revenge... at Longyuan?"

Not only Ibuki, but even Kushida was a little confused.

They've already been kicked out, how can they retaliate against Longyuan?

"wait for me a while."

After saying that, Kamio Tatsuya jogged towards Chabashira-sensei's camp.

"Tea Pillar Teacher, is what I ordered ready?"

"of course."

As she spoke, Ms. Chabashira handed Tatsuya Kamio a card, exactly the same as the key card she had shown earlier, with Tatsuya Kamio's name engraved on the front.

"Is this thing definitely a fake?"

Just to be on the safe side, Tatsuya Kamio checked it again. There was no way around it; this thing looked exactly like the real thing.

"The leader of Class D has already decided that even if you have this card, you cannot take over the camp."

Since the other party had said so, Kamio Tatsuya accepted the card. Although he didn't know if it would be useful, Kamio Tatsuya felt that there was still a chance.

After obtaining the card, Kamio Tatsu returned to Ibuki's side.

"Awaited."

"No, what did Kamio-san go to do?"

"You'll find out soon enough. Speaking of which, we were just talking about getting revenge on Ryuen, right?" Kamio Tatsuya looked at Ibuki. "What do you think? Should we get revenge on Ryuen?"

Ibuki was suddenly caught in a dilemma.

Logically speaking, it's impossible for her not to hate Longyuan after being kicked out of the Longyuan family.

But... she knew exactly what was going on.

In short, listen to what the other person has to say first.

"how do you want to do it?"

Upon hearing Ibuki's words, Kamio Tatsuya gave a strange smile and then pulled a card out of his pocket.

"This, this is..."
