"Thanks for your help, but are you really not planning to continue the exam?"
"Our boss said it's better to return to the cruise ship early rather than stay here like savages. Plus, we can exchange exam points for personal points. It's a great deal."
"You're really loyal to Ryuuen. Doesn't anyone oppose him?"
"Hmph, there's only one sun in the sky. Anyone who dares to oppose Ryuen is a traitor to Class C!"
Katsuragi Kohei exchanged a few words with the Class C student in charge of the handover, then let them leave.
To ensure storage and preservation, Class A had specifically purchased a lot of dry food, canned goods, and bottled water, as well as instant noodles and other quick als.
In addition, they had outdoor showers, lanterns, buckets, mosquito repellent, cooking tools, portable toilets, small tents, and more, totaling around a hundred points.
This ant Class A could retain their 270 points with these supplies.
By the way, the suggestion to add portable toilets ca from Kaoru Mitoma.
After all, using cardboard boxes as toilets was too unreliable.
What if a strong wind blew them over, exposing soone's bare bottom?
Moreover, using cardboard boxes for both big and small business was becoming unbearable.
After receiving the supplies from Class C, Class A camp was finally complete.
Except for the difficulty of securing a water source, everything was on track.
Katsuragi Kohei specifically assigned the task of fetching water to the boys, with shifts in the morning and afternoon, rotating until the exam ended.
Gathering wild fruits and cooking als were responsibilities given to the girls or volunteers. In short, no one was allowed to stay idle.
After arranging these tasks, Katsuragi Kohei desire for external reconnaissance diminished significantly.
In his view, Class A had essentially secured all the exam points, and the bonus points were likely within their grasp as well.
As for the issue of the leader, he decided to approach Kaoru Mitoma directly.
"During your reconnaissance, did you pay attention to the other classes?"
"The reconnaissance went smoothly, I didn't run into any of them."
Although he had seen the movents of the other classes on the Marauder's Map, Kaoru Mitoma indeed hadn't encountered them face-to-face.
He had been solely focused on capturing the checkpoints and pretending to record the map routes.
Katsuragi Kohei looked hesitant, as if wrestling with an important decision.
"Are you planning to find their leader?" Kaoru Mitoma asked perceptively.
"I didn't originally have that idea. Leaving it to Ryuuen was just a gamble. But since you've already captured all the checkpoints" Katsuragi Kohei took a deep breath
"I'm considering whether we should take this opportunity to sneak over to Class B and Class D to observe the situation."
Kaoru Mitoma was surprised that Katsuragi Kohei would propose such a risky idea.
If the two of them ventured out to observe, they would definitely miss the evening roll call, resulting in a direct deduction of ten exam points.
This was precisely why Kaoru Mitoma had abandoned the idea of making contact earlier.
Besides annoying Class B and Class C, it simply wasn't worth the cost.
After all, the next update was scheduled for around 4 or 5 a.m. and he couldn't possibly wake up early to make another trip.
But on second thought, since he had already given up on the idea, how could the other side possibly anticipate this move?
With the checkpoint ownership about to update and coinciding with roll call ti, it was unlikely anyone would expect Class A to make a move.
"So, it's not feasible?" Katsuragi Kohei sighed, seeing Kaoru Mitoma deep in thought.
"It's not that it's impossible. I just didn't expect you to take such a risk" Kaoru Mitoma reminded him.
"If we gain nothing from this, we'll lose ten points here."
Katsuragi Kohei gritted his teeth.
"I'll go alone. That way, the loss can be minimized."
In truth, there was no need to go at night.
He had a better thod to ensure he could obtain the leader's information with absolute certainty. Despite thinking this, Kaoru Mitoma nodded on the surface.
"Be careful walking alone at night. If anything unexpected happens, rember to press the ergency contact on your watch."
"It'll cost thirty points."
"Since we're already missing one person, it doesn't matter."
"..."
Katsuragi Kohei suddenly felt the urge to hit soone.
He had agreed to the deal with Class C and had gone to great lengths to preserve the exam points. How could he possibly think it didn't matter?
"Although I understand your desire to crush Sakayanagi-san, I have to remind you" Kaoru Mitoma said quietly.
"the way you're acting with now might reach the ears of Nagumo-senpai."
Without reliable people by his side, Katsuragi Kohei had repeatedly sought out Kaoru Mitoma today, discussing and deciding the fate of their class together.
This scene had unfolded before the entire Class A.
Even Hashimoto Masayoshi noticed sothing unusual, let alone the others.
Katsuragi Kohei remained silent for a mont before saying.
"I think he's known for a while that I'm your man."
"Even if it's an open secret, you can't go around talking about it. Otherwise, he'll abandon any plans to turn you against " Kaoru Mitoma replied.
Katsuragi Kohei nodded silently, indicating that he understood.
Soon after, the two returned to their respective posts.
As ti passed, the island gradually embraced the hues of dusk.
The setting sun cast its glow across the distant horizon, its faint afterglow spilling gently over the treetops.
The shadows of the valleys and trees stretched across the ground, forming shallow and deep folds.
Class A was busy preparing dinner over a fire.
Kaoru Mitoma sneaked into a nearby bush and spotted a chicken lying beside an automatic hunting machine.
"Are there wild chickens on this island?" Kaoru Mitoma wondered as he poked at the chicken, which seed to have been killed by a single bite from the machine.
Seeing him take the prey, the automatic hunting machine swiftly retreated into the depths of the forest, disappearing without a trace.
It took about four hours for his first successful hunt.
Kaoru Mitoma picked up a rock and struck the chicken head a few tis, pretending he had personally caught the wild chicken.
He then brought it back to Class A camp.
"You caught a wild chicken?" Kamuro Masumi was the first to notice what he was holding.
"I heard so noise earlier, so I went to check it out. This chicken accidentally bumped into a tree, and I took the chance to knock it out. Easy catch."
Kamuro Masumi was annoyed, seeing right through his obvious lie.
"I'm not a three-year-old. Do you really think I'd believe that?"
"Keep it down. There's only one chicken. You don't want to miss out on the at, do you?"
"Grr…"
Kamuro Masumi initially didn't want to give in to his temptation, but soone suddenly chid in.
"Mitoma, I want so too."
Unlike her stubbornness, Morishita Ai readily gave in, staring eagerly at Kaoru Mitoma.
"Wait, how do you have a wild chicken?!"
Not just Morishita Ai, more and more people began to notice the dead chicken in Kaoru Mitoma hands.
Faced with Kaoru Mitoma half-smirking expression, Kamuro Masumi could only cover her face, not wanting him to see her expression.
"...Save so for ."
