Real teaching, hypocritical gray life

"Can I ask a question?"

Just as the two were talking about lowering the ambient temperature, Ayanokouji suddenly interrupted.

"Excuse me, we have nothing to hide, except who the leader is of course."

"It should be easy for mosquitoes to breed here, right? But I noticed that there seemed to be very few mosquitoes on the way here. Is there any trick? From the items Ichinose just mentioned, it seems that there is no mosquito repellent."

"Well, if you say so, it seems that there are very few mosquitoes around here. I don't seem to be bitten by mosquitoes very often."

"Is it related to these grasses? There seem to be such dropped objects around your tent." As he spoke, Horikita picked up some green grass leaves from under our hammock.

"That... I don't know. Most of the things were done at the suggestion of Soma-san... Let me ask."

"Soma-san, do you have time now? Could you please come over here for a moment?"

"What's wrong?" Soma slowly came over after hearing Ichinose's call.

"Did you put this grass around us?"

"This is........"

"I just noticed this too. Ayanokouji-san said there seem to be very few mosquitoes in our campsite, so I wanted to ask if you did this."

"It's not me. I just noticed that I don't seem to have been bitten by mosquitoes very often. Is it the grass that's causing the problem?"

"Hey, wasn't it Souma-san who did it? Then who did it?"

"I don't know either. I haven't seen anyone else do these things..." As he said this, Soma brought the grass leaf close to his nose and carefully smelled the smell of the leaf.

Then he frowned, "This... looks like geranium?"

"what is that?"

"It's a plant that repels mosquitoes, but there doesn't seem to be anything like it nearby. Even if you see it, it's easy to treat it as a weed. If I hadn't smelled it, I wouldn't have recognized it."

Geraniums are native to southern Africa, especially South Africa. They prefer warm, humid and sunny environments. They are popular because of their volatile aroma.

"But there seems to be a lot of stuff like this around our camp."

"Yes, is that so? Sorry, I didn't notice this at all."

"But if it wasn't Soma-san, then it means someone else did it."

"I'll try to ask everyone later."

"Well, thank you for your help, I won't bother you anymore."

"........I'm sorry, it seems that we don't know the specific tricks very well." After talking to Soma, Ichinose explained to the two students from Class D.

"Since we don't know, then we won't go into details. Let me tell you about the situation in our class."

"........"

"I see... It seems that someone who quits during the game is really troublesome... The person who quits couldn't be a student named Koenji from your class, right?"

"How did Ichinose know that?" Horikita looked at us in confusion.

"When Luo You and I were collecting firewood before, we ran into him and he made some very strange remarks..."

"Strange statement?"

"Like, how perfect I am, and how great this forest is... Anyway, I had no idea what he was talking about, and in the end I just said a few gibberish based on his way of speaking before I could get rid of him."

"Something like 'I have a perfect body and I still shine even in this forest...'?"

"Yeah, it's just like that. Do you understand what this means?" Ichinose tilted his head, eager to know the answer.

"......Please ignore that person. We can't do anything about it." Horikita sighed and changed the subject.

After that, the two of them agreed not to identify each other's leaders, and Horikita asked Ichinose about the address of Class A's camp. It was also at this time that I noticed Kaneda-san's actions.

"Mr. Kaneda, do you need any help?" I greeted him while taking the opportunity to get water after finishing my work.

"Yes Luo, can I ask if you know where Zhongxi classmate went?"

"Zhongxi... He's probably fishing at the beach right now. What do you want from him?"

"In fact, I have just completed my task, so I want to go help somewhere else."

"I see, but we don't have any fishing gear left."

"Yeah, really? That's a bit of a headache."

"Wouldn't it be nice to take a break?"

"Maybe, but if I stop, I might not be able to accept it psychologically."

"......If Kaneda-san insists on helping, why not go to Shiratori-san? He might need some assistance."

"Is White Bird here?"

"Yes, but he might ask you to assist Shiranami-san. After all, Shiranami and Ichinose-san are the only two girls who will take part in this task. If you don't mind, just go over there. Just say it was my recommendation."

"I understand, thank you."

"You're welcome." After saying that, Jintian left with a grateful smile on his face.

"Luo, you just said something wrong, didn't you?"

Just when I took a sip of water and was about to take a break, Takashima came to me with the plastic bottle again.

"Uh, is there something wrong? If I remember correctly, Shiratori needs a lot of manpower."

"Shiratori does need a lot of manpower, but that girl is not Shiranami-san."

"Eh, isn't it Shiranami-san? I thought it would be Shiranami-san who was working with Ichinose."

"You're totally wrong, okay? It's Ninomiya-san. The two looks are completely different. How could you have made such a mistake?"

"In fact, I didn't even see who was helping Shiratori. I just made a subconscious judgment."

"It seems that what you said is true..."

At this time, Ichinose and Horikita successfully exchanged information about their respective classes and brought Kanzaki to the well.

"Does Ichinose need to rest for a while?"

"No, there are still many things that have not been dealt with, and how can I take a break when everyone is working? But having said that, there is one thing that I am still very concerned about. Let me ask Luo Jun by the way."

"whats the matter?"

"Do you know the plant in my hand?" Ichinose handed the geranium to me, and Takashima also came over curiously.

"It can't be a brain teaser. I'm not good at it." I put my nose close to the tip and sniffed carefully, and found that there was indeed a strange smell.

"No, it's not. This is geranium. Have you seen anyone sowing this grass in the camp?"

"Anyone else? I didn't see any."

"I didn't see it either."

"Does it have any effect?"

"Well, according to Souma-san, it can be used to repel mosquitoes, which is why there are so few mosquitoes around the campsite. Doesn't everyone have any impression?"

"No." Takashima answered the question first, so I had to hold my words back.

"Well, why do people like to do good things behind people's backs without telling others about them?"

"Perhaps that person thought that this matter was nothing big, so he didn't mention it. Maybe no one asked about it, which was also a reason... Do you need me to ask?"

"Don't bother with that. Just let me handle this kind of thing. Kanzaki-san can also help if possible."

"I understand."

Without thinking, Ichinose once again picked up the geranium that was placed on the ground and looked at it absentmindedly.

Chapter 67: A Private Meeting in the Early Morning

If you want to achieve excellent results in this special exam, then observation of other classes is essential.

At present, the situation of Class C is the easiest to understand. They directly gave up the 300 test points provided in advance, and the authenticity of this can be proved from the items they purchased; Class A chose to occupy the cave, a hidden and closed stronghold. However, no matter how much they use plastic bags to cover it, my doubts have been resolved.

As for Class D, although some of the information was known from the conversation between Ichinose and Horikita, the authenticity remains to be confirmed. In addition, Horikita's personal status is also worth paying attention to.

This exploration with Ichinose was, at least for me, quite rewarding.

The students in Class B had all fallen asleep, and the only sound left in the camp was the sound of their relaxed breathing.

I put on my shoes, left my hammock for the night again, and quietly pulled up the separate tent some distance from our campsite.

Ah, it is really troublesome that the watch is damaged again and again.

"Student Luo, are you planning to do something unspeakable to the teacher by calling him out so late at night?"

Inside the tent, Mr. Hoshinomiya appeared in my sight in a 'duck sitting' position, with the zipper of his sportswear slightly open, and his right shoulder half exposed.

"If I remember correctly, teacher-student romance is taboo."

"So Luo Jun is planning to break the taboo for the teacher? Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

"I'm sorry, but I don't think I can interest you."

"Wow, teacher, I will be sad if you say that... Or is it that Luo Jun has become interested in someone else, so he wants to abandon the teacher?"

"I don't think I have the right to abandon you, and it's not your turn to understand this matter."

"Let the teacher guess, it's - Xiao Fanbo! Right?" Teacher Hoshinomiya showed a mischievous look, but actually she was hiding a devilish cruelty in her heart.

It's twelve o'clock in the morning. This is the current time. According to the agreement between me and Teacher Hoshinomiya at the roll call at eight o'clock in the evening, I will meet her in the independent tent.

"I need to buy something."

"Well, that's really annoying. You don't even answer my question directly."

I didn't say anything, but just watched her scene in front of me quietly.

"It's really boring. Isn't there anything attractive about the teacher?"

"To be honest, your figure is pretty good even among young women."

"If that's what you said, then why does Luo Jun still want to hide his interest in the teacher?"

"I am just stating a fact. Besides, no matter how charming you are, I have the ability to resist temptation."

“That’s not a good explanation.”

"If you want to hear the answer you want, I don't think we can discuss it all day and still not come to a conclusion."

"Oh, Luo Jun is really heartless... But since you plan to buy something, don't you plan to find Ichinose to explain the reason first? If points disappear for no reason, it will definitely lead to suspicion from others, and it will also lose team spirit."

"That's not necessary."

"What if I refuse?"

"The guidebook states that the 300 exam points can be used by anyone in the class. As a candidate, I should have this right as well."

Although Teacher Hoshinomiya misunderstood what I meant, it was still fun to play some fun on her at this time.

Fun....I am really stupid.

But the fact that she could still talk to me like this after what happened shows that she is not fragile.

"You understand the rules very well. Although I won't tell other students about your purchase history, everyone can see your point consumption. Don't you want others to find out?"

"Even so, the target will not be on me at the first time. The result will only be mutual suspicion."

"That's really cruel, Luo-san."

Cruel? Maybe.

"So what do you want?"

"I want to buy two things—"

After I said this, Mr. Hoshinomiya frowned immediately.

"Mr. Luo should know that you cannot buy anything other than what is in the guidebook. Even if the teacher wants to give you a backdoor, your request is too much to ask."

"So I didn't plan to use assessment points to buy it. Private points, that's fine."

"Wow, so Luo Jun has been teasing me the whole time? This is too much."

"Compared to what you've done, my level is nothing."
