COTE: A Man On A Mission || Love is War? Ch 435 – Ichinose’s Dinner with Isshiki~

Since team formation is completed, there is no need to stay in room.

So, Hachiman picked up the bag, opened phone and took a look.

In order to prove his innocence, Hachiman quit the class group of the second-year C, and also quit Yukimura's tutoring group.

However, he still kept the contact information of Kushida, Suzune, Karuizawa, Sakura, and Hasebe.

The chat window with Suzune showed a ssage sent 15 minutes ago, and it still showed as unread.

Apparently, she is also busy arranging the team now.

The team formation of Class C and D is different.

Class D has two must-win teams, and the others are just slacking off, and got arranged based on who they think can get along well.

There aren't too many requirents.

But Class C was different.

Although Class C got the opportunity to cooperate with B, students did not think about being obedient, but instead thought about what to do if they fell too far behind.

And since you can team up with Ichinose's class, can we work towards getting into top 50% of group score?

You know, if you don't want to be at the bottom, can't pay 6 million private points that are required to be at the bottom, so every student in the class paid 50,000 points of protection fee to Ryuen....

If you can get in the top 50%, you can also get 50,000 personal points.

In other words, so students in Class C hope to be taken away by Ichinose.

But this kind of thing is not easy to arrange, or didn’t expect so people to be so thick-skinned. So, progress in forming a team is very slow.

Then, Suzune probably won't be able to cook tonight.

Therefore, Hachiman had no choice but to go to the shopping district.

However, when walking out of the teaching building, he saw a newbie at the small blackboard.

The other person was a first-year student, a face he had rarely seen.

She had brown hair that just reached her shoulders, and delicate, regular facial features.

However, her clear pupils occasionally revealed a hint of cunning.

"Who are you?" Hachiman said to the other party, “This is not a place where first-year students can co.”

"I'm a student in Class C, Grade 1." The other person was looking at the class evaluation scores on blackboard while kicking a stone with her foot.

Maybe she was surprised because she didn't expect to be approached.

But, quickly ca to her senses.



“I'm waiting for Ichinose-senpai,” This unknown person showed a very cute troubleso face, “She and I have agreed to have dinner together.”

Hachiman sent a ssage to Ichinose.

“???”

Recently, a first-year girl wanted to seek her help. She said that she was excluded by her classmates.

This ti, friend agreed to team up with her, but changed her mind halfway through.

But she didn't want to act alone.

In other words, this junior school girl hopes to get help from Ichinose to help persuade students in her class.

'So, it is normal for a junior to ask a senior girl for help. Can senpai help you?' Hachiman is well aware of this.

Ichinose is an Archangel and has organized an exchange eting, so she has received a lot of praise.

At the sa ti, social circle also expanded to first-year students.

Then people will depend on you. Besides, Ichinose's character will definitely help.

'You have been ostracized since you entered school just one month ago. My Kouhai, you are quite aweso, did you offend everybody?' Hachiman used the OAA system to find the other party's information.

A student in first-year class C, and her na is Isshiki Iroha.

As ti for forming teams approached, most of the students were busy.

Then, waited quietly for No. 6, and took the bus to luxury cruise ship to land on uninhabited island for exam.

On evening of 5th. Hachiman boldly and very rudely invited Kushida to Horikita Suzune's room.

Because today was Friday, and according to the agreent between him and Kushida, his ti every Saturday morning was hers after reducing late night strolls on normal days to avoid being suspected or stalked by a girl like Amasawa.

But now have to take an exam. So, can only borrow Horikita's room for now.

But there is no need to kick Suzune out, because today he called Kushida over to see if she had completed her mission.

Anyway, Suzune also knows true face of Kushida-chan.

“The matter with Nanase is a bit tricky,” Kushida-chan said while sitting on Suzune's bed without her permission, even though she was barred from doing so, giving her an innocent grin, “It took several attempts to break through her heart. And then, last night, it finally worked. I know her past. It’s actually quite sad......”

( ｡ •̀ ᴖ •́ ｡) Suzune made a face.

“Is there a problem Horikita-san?” A little angel's cute voice piecered through Suzune's ears, it was quite irritating to her.

Kushida took a pillow in her arms, and squatted down even more comfortably on the bed.

“• •” Hachiman was confused, so he can only at the black-haired girl.

“...No.” Suzune felt even more annoyed now.

"Hirata-kun revealed earlier that his friend attempted suicide. And then personality changed drastically because of this....And Nanase, what she saw was scene of her childhood sweetheart committing suicide. His na was Matsuo Eiichiro, was an excellent person, very positive, optimistic about life. His father worked as a butler in a powerful family. However, Matsuo's father made a mistake, which was to help a teenager. The boy was locked up, so he helped to escape. It made those powerful people angry and furious. Then he went straight to Matsuo family. Because the powerful person was very prestigious and well-known in the education field, his son was expelled from school, and then no one dared to accept him. Matsuo's father wanted his son not to be implicated, so he admitted his mistake to the powerful people. Under circumstances where there was no way to be forgiven, he chose to die and self-immolate to apologize. Finally, a school was willing to accept Matsuo Eichiro, but he couldn't accept that his father had exchanged his future for his own in this way, so he too committed suicide. Then, when Nanase entered this school, she actually learned one of the sources that led to the suicide of her childhood sweetheart, that is, person who was supported by Matsuo's father, was in Advanced Nurturing High School. So she actually ca here for revenge....”

“Then do you know who the person who was helped by Matsuo's father is?”

“I don't know,” But Kushida-chan shook her head, “Although I'm trying to dig deeper into Nanase's heart, unfortunately, her emotions are unstable when I continue to dig deeper. If I don't stop temporarily, I feel like her ntal state will collapse.....But, I think she will definitely do sothing, like our exam on this uninhabited island.”

Hachiman recalled. 'So that's why Nanase asked when I t her last month....[Senpai, what do you think of violence? Are you a supporter or an opponent?]'

Hachiman didn't think she was asking him, but more like asking Ayanokoji.

And what Kouhai Nanase said was that she also supports violence.

But, after the incident between Hosen and Ayanokoji, he learned from Hirata that during entire incident, Nanase did not participate in using violence.

Also helped to say so words.

Then people feel this junior is pretty good. But look now.

Nanase's violence is just reserved, not used yet, she is preparing to use in the exam on uninhabited island.

It is truly a turbulent ti.

Hachiman then took out his cell phone and sent a ssage to Tsukishiro, Acting chairman.

[Have you prepared enough for this exam?]

Tsukishiro probably wasn't looking at his phone, as he didn't reply until 10 minutes later.

[First-year students are preparing for a preferential treatnt exam similar to last year.] by Tsukishiro.

Although so of answers are irrlevant.

However, since Acting Chairman Tsukishiro can spare the points to arrange an exam similar to VIP for the first-year students.

This ans that expenses of this uninhabited island exam have been well taken into consideration.

Although it is a turbulent ti, Mr. Tsukishiro is still stable.

“So, you like this kind of gossip, Kushida-san? Did it make you feel good?” It was none other than Suzune, girl didn't forget blondie ruined her bed last ti!

“...No comnts ~hehe!”

The Uninhabited island exam for all students in school, which is mandatory for everyone to participate, has begun!

The clear blue sea, huge and luxurious cruise ship, and sound of the whistle from ti to ti.

Blue sky, white clouds and sea breeze.

Needless to say, appearance of this luxury cruise ship of Sakayanagi family is amazing.

Speranaza is fully equipped with facilities, like a small but complex society.

From comfortable guest rooms to high-end restaurants, to the elegant and huge opera house, and a variety of complete entertainnt facilities.

Massage SPA, swimming and fitness, everything is available.

There is even a shopping mall built on the ship.

Everything is free!

Of course, seniors have experienced this once or twice and won't be that surprised.

But for 1st-graders.

“Ohhhh! The sea! The real sea! Not just like ones I saw in ani!”

On deck of the cruise ship, you can see first graders holding onto the railings, looking at endless blue sea and shouting excitedly.

“Stop molesting !” Railing-chan was screaming outside her heart too!

This was not just the performance of one student, but all first-year students were excited.

Even though Japan is an island country, many people have seen the sea.

However, for many, this is actually the first ti to go out to sea.

“Wow! This cruise ship is amazing, so touching!”

The girls also had blushing faces and ford groups of three or four with their friends.

However, their interest is mostly focused on cruise ship itself, unlike the boys who yearn for stars and sea.

“I wanna hang out with Pirates!”

“Hey, aren't you even a little bit afraid of S-Sharks?”

Boys are simple.

What they wanted more was to explore huge luxury cruise ship.

“Even in entire Japan, this cruise ship can definitely be considered top-notch!” As a first-year student, Yukinoshita comnted.

But it wasn't that she wanted to co, but she was pushed out by classmate Amasawa.

Yukino originally planned to read a book in her room, and get sick just like Horikita Suzune, her counterpart.
