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

Voiceover: You spent the whole day at Class C's camp lying in bed with a girl, and now you're blaming Hashimoto for not taking any action? Who taught you to be such a coward?

On the third day, Kamio Tatsuya planned to rest at Class D's camp because he had slept almost all day yesterday and hadn't slept much at night.

So he planned to take a nap later. Besides, it's been three days already, and Hashimoto should be making a move by now.

However, although Tatsuya Kamio did not take any action, he noticed that Ayanokouji left Class D's camp immediately after roll call.

Kamio Tatsuya was not unaware of Ayanokoji's thoughts.

Before this exam, both Tatsuya Kamio and Kiyotaka Ayanokoji were threatened by Sae Chabashira and told to aim for the class.

After arriving on the island, Kamio Tatsuya first discovered the class leader and then gave the class some good advice.

It can be said that it has played a significant positive role.

However, Ayanokouji did nothing at all. If this continues, Chabashira Sae will probably think he is shirking his duties.

It would be hilarious if Chabashira got expelled from school because of something like this.

Therefore, he also felt a bit nervous, which is why he took advantage of Horikita to go out and investigate intelligence the next day.

And they left the camp early this morning.

Hopefully, he will gain something. Kamio Tatsu has already done what he needed to do. As long as the plan is executed smoothly, Ban will be the biggest loser in this exam.

As for whether Class D can win, let Ayanokouji worry about that.

Moreover, that guy seemed pretty enthusiastic.

After the students in Class D got busy, Tatsuya Kamio went to find Ibuki alone.

"Come with me for a moment, I have something to tell you."

Despite her dissatisfaction, Ibuki remembered the order Ryuen had given her the night before and honestly followed Kamio Tatsuya to a secluded spot.

"Longyuan should have already told you, right?"

“That’s right, and I also told him that you are no longer the leader of Class D.”

This was something that Tatsuya Kamio had already anticipated.

He spent the whole day at Class C's camp yesterday. Ryuen only needs to have Ibuki observe whether Class D's camp has been reoccupied during this time to find out whether Kamio Tatsuya is the leader or not.

If even this is something you can't figure out, then Tatsuya Kamio needs to re-evaluate Ryuen's abilities.

"It doesn't matter. I called you over because of the camera. Is it still in your bag?"

Ibuki was very unhappy with Tatsuya Kamio's interrogative attitude, but she had no choice but to endure it for the sake of the class.

"Would you like me to bring it over and show it to you?"

Speaking of cameras, Tatsuya Kamio recalled Ayanokouji rummaging through Ibuki's bag yesterday morning.

That guy has probably already figured out what the camera is for.

Everyone knew that Ibuki was a spy, and Ayanokouji, a contestant highly regarded by Chabashira Sae, could naturally see it as well.

So, to prevent the identity of the leader of Class D from being exposed, that guy will definitely do something.

Wait, did he do something to the camera?

"Bring me the camera."

Although Ibuki didn't understand, she still returned to Class D's camp and walked directly towards Tatsuya Kamio with her bag.

Then, in front of Tatsuya Kamio, she took the camera out of her bag and handed it to him.

After taking the camera, Tatsuya Kamio turned it on immediately, but found no problems.

Didn't have time to touch the camera?

Or did they simply not think of this aspect at all?

Wait, did he find out from Mr. Chabashira that I made a fake key card?

Could it be that he intends for me to show the fake key card to Ibuki, and then use that to mislead Ryuen and Katsuragi?

It's not impossible.

"Keep this safe for me. You can go about your business for the next few days."

After putting his digital camera into the large pocket of his tracksuit, Kamio Tatsuya headed towards Chabashira-sensei's camp.

"Oh? First Ayanokouji, and then you. Is there something you need?"

Seeing Tatsuya Kamio approach, Sae Chabashira, who was resting in a chair, smiled and said.

Hehe, still laughing.

Once I've accumulated enough points to transfer classes, let's see if you're still laughing!

"Did you tell Ayanokouji about this key card?"

“No, I didn’t tell him. He guessed what you must have done on his own,” Chabashira Sae explained.

"So, he guessed what I did, but didn't know exactly what I did, so he asked you, right?"

“That’s right. As soon as he got back yesterday, he immediately asked me what you bought with points from me,” Chabashira Sae explained. “Since he’s already asked about this, I naturally can’t hide it from him.”

"I see."

After saying that, Kamio Tatsuya turned and left.

That guy probably doesn't think I fooled Longyuan with this fake key card, does he?

No, probably not. After all, D-class camp was occupied normally yesterday when I wasn't there.

Although Ibuki didn't know who had taken over, she certainly knew that the leader of Class D couldn't be Tatsuya Kamio.

Ayanokouji should be able to figure this out.

So what does he plan to do?

Forget it, let's wait until he comes back and have an open and honest talk with him. Otherwise, if things continue like this, the two of them might become obstacles to each other.

To avoid a situation that would be bad for everyone.

After Tatsuya Kamio rested against a big tree for two hours, Ayanokouji finally returned, and he came back shirtless.

The reason, as for, was what he was carrying.

This guy sealed the top half of his short-sleeved shirt shut, then stuffed a lot of corn inside and held it in his arms.

"This, this is corn?"

Hirata was quite surprised to see that Ayanokouji had brought back corn.

Not only Hirata, but also Tatsuya Kamio was somewhat surprised.

This guy actually managed to find a cornfield on this island; he's got some skills.

Chapter 116 The Path of a King Needs No Allies!

The students of Class D followed Ayanokouji to the cornfield. After harvesting the corn, they returned to the camp at 1 p.m.

"Ayanokouji, come with me for a moment, I have something to tell you."

As soon as he had some free time, Kamio Tatsuya immediately went to Ayanokoji, intending to get things straight right away.

By the way, perhaps the clash of ideas between the two of us could make the situation on the island clearer.

Ayanokouji seemed to have guessed Kamio Tatsuya's purpose, so the two of them didn't waste any more words and went straight to the outer perimeter of Class D's camp.

Ayanokouji felt quite indifferent towards Tatsuya Kamio. Since the other party had already realized his strength, there was no point in pretending to be ignorant anymore.

Moreover, we're all in the same boat these days, so it's best to cooperate if possible. Even if we can't cooperate, we shouldn't hold each other back.

"I have a few questions I want to discuss with you."

"IM about the same."

Ayanokouji nodded without objecting.

"First of all, the class leader is Totsuka Yahiko, you shouldn't have any objections to that, right?"

Ayanokouji nodded. This was a fact that he and Kamio Tatsuya had witnessed together, and he had also inquired about Katsuragi's character from Ichinose yesterday, so he was even more certain of this matter.

“Next is this.” Tatsuya Kamio took out the fake key card. “You should understand what I want to do.”

“Hmm, I think Ryuen has probably partnered with Katsuragi. The digital camera in Ibuki’s bag is proof.” Ayanokouji also spoke calmly. “Are you planning to use this fake key card to deceive Ibuki?”

“Ryuen won’t fall for it. Besides, I was out all day yesterday, and you guys were taking over the bases normally during that time, so Ibuki probably already knows that the key cards I have here are fake.”

Ayanokouji nodded; he had also considered that.

If Ayanokouji had known earlier that Kamio Tatsuya had created a fake keycard, he would have definitely persuaded Horikita and Hirata not to occupy the camp before Kamio Tatsuya returned, thus misleading Ibuki.

These errors are all caused by information asymmetry.

"Do you think Ryuen would show Katsuragi a photo of the fake key card?"

……

If we're talking about who's the dirtiest, it's you. In this situation, you're still thinking about sabotaging your job.

“I plan to tell Long Yuan directly that this key card is fake.”

"Are you planning to cooperate with Longyuan?"

"It's not about cooperation, it's just about making them back down and taking a hit on the class together, since the class is our common enemy." Kamio Tatsuya shrugged. "Besides, I've already told Ryuen and Ichinose about the class leader's identity. Ichinose promised to write it down on the last day, but I'm not sure about Ryuen."

"Do you have a conflict with Ban? I remember you have friends in Ban, right?" Ayanokouji was a little puzzled, wondering why Kamio Tatsuya was targeting Ban so much.

"Promoting to a higher class doesn't necessarily increase the points in Class D, and the same applies to lowering the class."

Kamio Tatsuya smiled and said that it was best not to mention that Yahiko would retaliate against the class because of Yahiko's rudeness.

"You should have seen through Dragon Garden's battle plan, right?"

"You mean the operation at midnight?"

"Well, since Ryuen chose to fight at midnight, it means he hasn't given up on the exam at all. Who do you think will be the leader of Class C? Ibuki? Kaneda, or Ryuen himself?"

When asked this question, Ayanokouji fell into deep thought.

Kamio Tatsuya is inclined to support Ryuen himself.

Admittedly, if Tatsuya Kamio were to execute this plan, he certainly wouldn't act as the leader himself; the target would be too big.

If it were him, he would most likely set the leader as either Ibuki or Kaneda, though Kaneda is a more likely candidate.

Because of Ibuki's bad temper, if she fails to infiltrate another class, her survival will be in question.

Rather than waiting for her to ruin herself and forcing a change of leadership, Kaneda is a better fit.

However, Ryuen's personality is clearly different from Tatsuya Kamio's.

This guy trusts no one and fantasizes about taking on everything himself, so there's a high chance he'll personally assume the leadership role.

Why take so long to think about such a simple question?

Tatsuya Kamio looked at Ayanokouji with some confusion.

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you."

"why?"

"Because I can't be sure if you will tell Long Yuan my guess. If you do tell Long Yuan my guess, then I will be in a bad position."

Kamio Tatsuya opened his mouth, then laughed. You actually don't believe me?

"Very well, it seems you really want to lead Class D to victory. In that case, I won't ask any further." Kamio Tatsuya smiled. "So, what about Class B? Have you discovered who their leader is?"

"It's that girl named Chihiro Shiranami, isn't it?"

Hearing Ayanokoji utter the name so casually, Kamio Tatsuya was stunned.

Holy crap, you even knew that?

Did you plant a mole in Class B as well?

“When I visited Class B’s camp with Horikita yesterday, the students in Class B would subconsciously look at each other, so I think she must be the leader. I think Kaneda from Class C will soon find out.”

This guy is really something else. He managed to identify the leader of Class B in such a short time just by observing him.

Watching Ayanokouji speak eloquently, Tatsuya Kamio suddenly asked, "Aren't you afraid that I'll tell the students in Class B about this, which would be bad for you?"

"Horikita and Ichinose have formed an alliance, and I didn't originally intend to include the name of their leader."
