Although there are fish in the pond and the water is considered alive, it is still unbearable.

Ichinose seemed to have heard something embarrassing and went to the girls' bathhouse with a slightly red face.

Hachiman is not pretentious either.

He quickly washed his body and got himself ready in no time.

It was only at this time that he had time to check his cell phone.

The battery of the phone was only 30% when I entered the cave, and the flashlight function was always on, so it automatically turned off when I came out with Ichinose and the others.

Then I charged it 25% while taking a shower.

Hachiman had just opened his phone when he saw the email from Majima-sensei.

Prompt that someone has logged into the island.

I couldn't help but frown.

"What's wrong, Hikigaya-kun?"

It's Kanzaki Ryuji.

He and Ichinose and the others teamed up to explore the cave. After discovering a mechanism in the cave and losing contact with several classmates, they chose to return to the cave entrance and wait.

Finally, everyone came out, and Ichinose-san also sent a message to let everyone know that she was safe, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

I guess Kanzaki-san also entered the cave and felt that he had a smell, so he came to the bathhouse to wash.

Although Kanzaki noticed that Hikigaya was also in the bathhouse, Hachiman honestly didn't go in, so there was no need for everyone to avoid him. But now that he looked a little serious, Kanzaki asked this question.

"Mashima-sensei sent a message saying that there's something unusual about the number of people coming in and out of this island."

"People come here often." Hachiman said.

"If that's what you're talking about, we do know," Kanzaki Ryuji said. "We were waiting for Ichinose and the others at the cave entrance when we ran into a group of people from outside the island. They had arrived two days prior. Two of them were searching for missing relatives, and the rest were treasure hunters."

"Let's not talk about those who are looking for treasure, but the two people who are here to look for their relatives."

"Five years ago, two of their relatives suddenly disappeared. The intelligence we received at the time was that they seemed to be planning to come to this small island to search for treasure, but they quickly lost contact."

"I also reported it to the police at the time, but nothing was done."

"It's just that the relatives believe that the two people must be on this island. So they want to come to the island, but because the island has abandoned its function as a tourist attraction after the disappearance, it is not open to the public. They can only sneak onto the island with some treasure hunters."

Kanzaki-san's tone was a little depressed.

He also knew that Ishizaki Daichi had dug up the bones.

“Maybe their relatives are no longer around.”

It turned out to be the case.

Then it is probably possible to confirm the identity of the bones dug up by Ishizaki.

In other words, if it was someone from the Onijima family, they would not continue to use the island if something really happened, so it must have been an outside treasure hunter.

just.

Since they came here together, it would be difficult for them to be trapped to death in the cave. As long as they help each other, they can deal with the traps.

Hikigaya thought so.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

While Hachiman and Kanzaki were talking, they noticed that there seemed to be some noise at the entrance of the bathhouse.

It seems that some students are trying to break into the bathhouse.

"Is Hikigaya in here?"

"Have you met Sakayanagi?"

These are two sentences that come out of nowhere.

?

But Hachiman walked out with some doubts, because he recognized that the person who made the voice was Kito from Class A.

Not only him, Hachiman also saw Kamuro beside him.

But the two of them looked a little embarrassed.

Hachiman noticed that there were traces of moisture on Kamuro-san's socks, and Kito-san's trousers were also wet from the knees down.

At the same time, there were traces of moss on their shoes.

Hikigaya was very familiar with this trace, because this was the area where he had gone to the cave and even reached the radio device found by Hachiman, Ichinose, and Karuizawa.

Does this mean that the students in Class A also went to explore the cave without permission?

"What happened to Sakayanagi-san?"

Hachiman walked out.

"Sakayanagi formed an exploration team," Kamuro said. "But we got separated along the way."

Is it.

We are separated again.

Then it’s similar to Ichinose’s situation.

"Is there anyone following Sakayanagi?" Hachiman asked.

"There was supposed to be Amasawa, but he came out with us, but Sakayanagi didn't. There's no signal on the phone either," Kamuro said. "And now Morishita is also out of contact."

This statement is still a bit difficult to understand.

But what can be confirmed is that Sakayanagi-san seems to have lost contact in the cave.

"Haven't you always been following Sakayanagi?" Hachiman said.

"Of course I was with her, but we encountered a group of people. They were probably those who landed on the island without permission. They wanted to notify the students in Ichinose's class to come out, but we encountered those who landed on the island without permission first."

"There were two rather annoying people. Morishita provoked them, and their numbers suddenly increased."

"Then, we dispersed and evacuated first. However, Sakayanagi triggered a mechanism and entered the stone chamber, so we couldn't get in."

"Junior Tianze has come up with a plan. Since we can't find the switch from the outside, then we can find another way. However, we all went to the pond and found the radio device, and we couldn't go to Sakayanagi's side." Kamuro said.

This is also the reason why Kamuro and Kito Hayabusa were wet from the knees down.

Chapter 041: Sakayanagi's secret message, as the vice president, he understands it very well! Next!

Hachiman started to think about it.

In other words, these treasure hunters are not as gentle as Kanzaki-san described.

Although Kamuro said that it was Morishita-san who provoked them, the fact that Sakayanagi arranged for everyone to evacuate showed that this group of people was not very friendly.

just.

Sakayanagi is very weak and would fall down at the slightest touch. It is not normal for her to take such a risk.

Unless Sakayanagi can ensure that she is definitely safe.

This is something Hachiman feels he needs to pay attention to.

Think so.

Hachiman stared at Kito-san and Kamuro-san.

The anxious expressions on their faces did not seem fake.

But Kanzaki-san also mentioned that there was news of outsiders landing on the island, so we should deal with it first.

Hikigaya originally just wanted to wash off the smell on her body, but now it seems that she will have to wash it again this time.

In this case...

"Hello, yes, I'm Hikigaya Hachiman from Class B, second year. Yes, I received your message, but now there's an unexpected situation."

Hachiman first contacted the homeroom teacher of Class 2-A.

Generally speaking, this school prioritizes strength, and teachers in Class A have greater authority, so many special exams are announced by the head teacher of Class A.

According to Mr. Majima, he took action after receiving the news that outsiders had landed on the island.

But this is a small island, and even waiting for the police to arrive will take time.

What Majima can do is to organize a team to patrol these outsiders first.

Two hours had passed since Mr. Majima sent the message, and this time was enough for him to start organizing, so now this team was immediately put to use.

just.

After confirming that Sakayanagi and Morishita were still in the cave, Majima-sensei made a prompt decision.

"Then I will arrange for the homeroom teacher of Grade 3-A to make an announcement requiring all students to stay in the dormitory."

"Wait a minute," Hikigaya stopped him. "If we broadcast now, the treasure hunters who have landed on the island will hear it. It might alert them and make them target the students."

"So what do you mean?" Teacher Majima held the phone with a heavy expression.

In a previous exam on an uninhabited island, a student was injured.

During this uninhabited island exam, if any students are injured or other situations occur, even he will have to apply to the school to decide to suspend the island exam in the future.

In particular, the students involved in the incident this time also included the student council president and... Chairman Sakayanagi's daughter.

Not many students knew about Sakayanagi's identity, but he was still informed among the teachers.

At the same time, he also knew how much Chairman Sakayanagi cherished his daughter. If anything happened... he would definitely be held accountable.

As a teacher, he couldn't accept watching his students get into trouble and doing nothing.

"First, let's try to get an idea of the number of treasure hunters," Hachiman said. "We'll try to handle this ourselves within an hour or two."

"Unless absolutely necessary, no news will be released," Hachiman said. "And I'm only contacting you to inform you of the situation, hoping you can use it as a backup."

"..." Majima.

Although they were just on a call, Mr. Majima had a sullen face, as if he was trying to see Hikigaya's expression through the phone.

He felt that Hikigaya Hachiman seemed to be trying to keep the matter secret.

Hachiman is indeed controlling the impact of things.

Once a school-wide broadcast is made, or even if all students are asked to brake, no matter how the matter is handled, it will eventually be reported back to the school.

And Sakayanagi-san...will probably be banned from taking any special exams outside of school because of this.

This is a good thing for the Ryuen class.

As long as Sakayanagi is not around, Class A's attack power will drop suddenly, and we can take advantage of this opportunity many times.

just.

Hachiman didn't think this was what Sakayanagi wanted to see.

Simultaneously.

This is also a kind of confidence.

Hachiman felt that Sakayanagi was not the reckless type of person, so the fact that she would temporarily stay in the cave mechanism meant that her current location was relatively safe.

In other words, everything was still in her plan. Since it was in the plan, making a big deal out of it would only cause her more trouble.

The fact that she chose herself as bait and stayed in the cave meant that the treasure hunters were likely trapped in the cave. So what he needed to do was to arrange people to capture all the treasure hunters.

Deal with outside registrants to ensure the safety of students.

……

quickly.

The support team has been formed.

The total team is 50 people.

This team looked quite large, but Kanzaki-san told me that they only encountered six treasure hunters at the cave entrance.

However, Kamuro and Onitsuka reported that they encountered two more people in the cave, and then the number of people increased rapidly, which means that the number may be around 2-10 people.

Then 50 people controlling 15 people doesn't seem like too much.
