THE CLASSROOM OF THE ELITE

7.VOLUME 4 Part 7

"Aaaaaaaayyyyyyaaaaaooooooooooookkkkkoouuuujjiiii !!!"

And as soon as I got back inside the ship, a shadow fell onto my body. With

hands swung over his neck, he was in a hurry and looked panicked. That

it looks like a serious situation. That's what I saw when I turned around

back, I saw the figure of Yamauchi Haruki, my classmate who

it had now taken the form of an Asura demon.

"A-what's up?" I asked.

Of course, I already knew what the reason was but I asked him

as a matter of formality.

"What are you asking? You promised to tell me Sakura's email,

what happened to that?"

Unfortunately I have to meet Yamauchi now. I have to think about

something's.

"I didn't see you specifically, but I just wanted to know" he said.

"Do you really think a loner like me would know email

Sakura?"

I tried to explain it to him and tried to make it sound

sincere so that he can understand.

"Could it?.. You tried asking Sakura for her email.

just?"

He asked me As I nodded, Yamauchi's face gaped

with a look of shock and he fell to the floor with both knees.

"Then that means you don't know the email.

using me?"

"I think I should say yes" I admit.

"And what happened? Did Sakura give you her email?”

"... sorry"

"I'm sorry? what do you mean sorry? I didn't ask for a request

sorry, right? I asked for his address"

Such emotionless answers reflected Yamauchi's disappointment

in me.

"How dare you. How dare you lie to kuuuuuuu !!!"

Yamauchi yelled at me.

I think I've done a bad thing using him like that,

but I still can't give her Sakura's email like that without

to his knowledge.

Even if he asked her directly, she had to reject him by

forthrightly.

"Will you give me more time?"

"What time? A liar is the beginning of a thief"

Of all the people in Class D, I never imagined the first

calling me a liar is Yamauchi. It's unsurprising.

"Then will you forcibly ask Sakura?"

"Yeah, I'll do that"

It seemed like he was already blinded by anger and could not think

clearly, he seemed to intend to obtain Sakura's email by force if

necessary.

"Sakura says she hates men who just talk"

"You just made it up, Ayanokouji" he said.

"Yes, what if you don't like me now, but

obviously why I didn't give you the email and tried asking

the email was forcefully useless" I told him.

"... Reason alone, you never knew the email from the start, did you?"

Yamauchi lowered his head while turning his gaze away from me.

"But you know Sakura likes digital cameras, right? Actually, I

listen at the moment he has a camera with a model that is already behind

era, but he doesn't have enough points to buy a new one, see? If

that's Yamauchi, you're gonna buy him a new digital camera, it's gonna

being a good gift for her, don't you think?”

"Ohhh .. I think it's good .. but I don't have any points either"

"You see, in this test, by hiding ‘target’, being

traitor, or guide your group together to victory, or,

you can easily earn enough points to

buy him a digital camera, am I wrong?"

"J-so, if I work hard, there's still a chance I could get close

Sakura?"

Now I have made sure that there is only one conclusion

will be reached Yamauchi.

"Right now, you, Yamauchi Haruki, have to work hard to show

your manhood. That's the only way you can get close to an idol

Sakura" I pushed her.

It is possible that by stimulating it like this, he will

try your best and achieve better results in exams

these.

"I'll do it, I'll do it, I'll do it,

I'll work hard and get Sakura for myself!"

Yamauchi excitedly said it.

"Yes Yamauchi, you can do it, if it's you, you will

it worked" I pushed it.

"Oooooooohhhhh! I will definitely win this test!"

Somehow it felt like I managed to direct his anger towards

different from this exam. Maybe his anger towards me will

back when the exam was over, but for now it looks like I've already

can avoid problems.

If there is one scary problem here, it must be the fact that

Yamauchi would get too excited and aim for the "target"

direct.

"I'll tell you this just in case but ..." I decided to

tell him this for himself.

"What?" he asked me.

"It's nothing, but if you find ‘target’ in your group,

don't let another class beat you with a punch" I said

to him.

"Of course”

But it would be better if Yamauchi didn't find

‘target’. Utilizing long-term benefits to take advantage of

short term profits and all that.

***

The fact that only Class A is guaranteed by 'continuing education or

after graduation, it is difficult for other classes to work together

with them Class B and Class D hold hands to defeat Class C and

Class A. That means instead, Class C and Class A can form alliances

to defeat Class B and Class D.

With that in mind, when

all of these classes were forced into one group, what would happen? This

it's almost like trapping carnivores and herbivores in one

stables. There is no good way to make a group

interdependence like that.

But, with pure chance, it is possible that the union between

classes like that will happen. As long as people have

strong personalities like Hirata or Ichinose are leading the way. But

that is still a difficult task.

Class A does not participate in the second discussion period. But because

Class A is deliberately silent, but it is also impossible for classes

another to discuss seriously and time slowly passed in silence.

I began to observe how the students from each class reacted.

Not that everyone has bad intentions, but most do

students guard themselves in an attempt to stay on the side

safe one.

"So for now, since this is our second meeting, I think we

should get down to his affairs as soon as possible because of the large number of

the number of meetings we have to gather like this is very limited"

Ichinose once again took the initiative. As expected of the class

B. The silent Hamaguchi and the other Class B disciples were the same. Always

trying to start an alliance together without hesitation.

It's almost like I'm looking at Hirata. But that doesn't mean Hirata,

Ichinose and his group would definitely emphasize a victory for

Class B in this exam and because the other students are still on guard,

heavy air hit us.

Everyone became increasingly suspicious, increasingly wary. But, third

students of Class A are free from all worries because they

relax play their phones. There are no rules that

saying that you can't contact other groups.

Rich is rich and poor is poor, nothing else but that.

Class A can be weak because they dominate all competition.

I imagine their defeat during the exam on the island will be

causing a change in their behavior but it looks like Katsuragi

trying to portray an image of 'quiet' from her class to another class.

Thinking about it carefully, this is indeed a very effective strategy.

especially for someone who works alone like me, I cannot

through walls that have been installed by Class A.

"I don't really think we need a solution

now, but I agree with the need to discuss. Class A

maybe trying to get away from all this, but I believe in

the importance of finding my own 'target".

Yukimura said as if in agreement with Ichinose.

If the "target" is in another class, this is an opportunity that is not

it can be wasted or maybe this attitude is an attempt to disguise

the fact that Yukimura is actually a "target"

"But can you really find them just by

speakin? I don't think so. 'Target' is hard to find or

more precisely the exam itself was hard to do" Karuizawa spoke.

problem of viewpoint? Exams on the island and current exams, this is intended

to be a surprise to the students, wouldn't you agree?"

"Surprise?" Karuizawa asked.

"If the sun rises then you can hand it to me, it is

my skills. Mo-e-a-g-a-r-e !!!" Sotomura suddenly shouted.

It seems like he's making a misunderstanding. It's not sunrise, though,

they said surprise.

"Living on a ship like this is fun, isn't it? you can

talk or play with your phone as you please, even if you're forced to

attend discussions for two hours a day.You're still free to do what

all you want to do is."

"Well .. yeah it's fun".

"That's exactly why we need to talk more comfortably,

like a group of friends. You will only suffer if you

waking up in a shell like Machida-kun over there" Ichinose

trying to convince Karuizawa.

Of course if you take it not as a 'test' but as

'that 'holiday' will become easier to discuss in between

your group. It's just a matter of the corner of the field as Ichinose said.

The more positive your thinking, the easier it will be to complete the exam.

But after hearing what Ichinose said, Machida started laughing.

"You are free to do whatever you want, but you are not

maybe find a 'target' like this. I don't know where ‘target’ is

be but if they haven't cooperated with their classmates yet,

they will definitely make the decision to hide themselves

they are in order to get points and maybe the 'target' is actually in

Class B. That can happen too. Can you really trust

they?” Ask Machida.

He said those words as if he wanted to shake the hearts of the disciples

who gathered there.

"The same can also be said for you, Machida-kun" Ichinose said

to him.

"...of course"

For a moment, Machida broke eye contact with Ichinose. More

to be exact, his eyes wandered to a disciple named "Morishige" who

sitting next to him. But then he quickly returned

eye contact and once again exude the image of 'quiet' Class A to

cohorts.

"We're not too fixated on who the target is, we get

100,000 points are given to us every month, no one

even in our class are interested in the 500,000 points prize for this exam"

"Really, so you told me that you didn't want points

an addition? Not that schools impose a limit on the number

points you can get" he replied.

"That's stupid, you can hallucinate like you want, but don't

accusing us of being insignificant is like that" Machida replied to him.

Ichinose, who continued to smile at Machida throughout the argument, said,

impressing me as a tough opponent.

Although Machida claims that he will not participate in

discussion, he was still given a decoy by Ichinose to answer him. And

as long as he spoke, information would definitely leak from him. With

using Karuizawa and Yukimura to fish Machida,

Ichinose continues to collect information from Class A all the time. I

wondering if Machida had noticed it?

Meanwhile, Karuizawa continues to sigh and play her phone.

There is no law that says a person cannot

using their mobile phones during the exam discussion period, but that is

bad behavior by doing it while the goal is

to find "targets".

Or is Karuizawa actually part of the CIA or the FBI and

relaying information to Hirata via mobile phone? If it's true, I

I will respect him a lot, but I doubt that.

Of course Karuizawa never tried to do anything so

this kind of action should have looked normal, but since the exam began, it had been,

I saw something was wrong with Karuizawa. Karuizawa acted

different, and a reunion with Ibuki and his arguments to the group

Manabes.

And I realized something. None of his actions at the time were

the 'normal' thing of Karuizawa. In Class D, is his reputation good or

no, there's no denying that he, along with Hirata, brings

the class becomes one.

Usually he would bring us together to be one for

to finish this exam, whether we have the capacity for it or not

no, but he never showed any such signs.

Hirata is Hirata no matter where he is, and Kushida is always

become Kushida. But Karuizawa has definitely changed. Or

maybe he feels inferior to Manabe and his group

being above himself in terms of the school level system. Which we

need current in order for Class D to rise through the sequence not only by

collect more points. Compared to classes like A and B,

Class D is still very lacking in compactness.

Karuizawa Kei, someone will be indispensable for compactness

it was an existence that controlled the students of Class D.

That's my assessment at the moment. That's why I'm worried about him right now.

I have to determine if he will become a useful existence

or a useless existence for me. I can't spare

my time in this regard remembers that the period of the exam itself is spelled out

curt. Depending on the situation, I might have to use

strength with him.

As soon as 1 hour had passed, Class A left the room.

It seemed like they were intent on maintaining their silent attitude until

finale.

Ichinose sighed and said "Alright... I think this is gonna be a test

difficult ones. What about you, Ayanokouji-kun? Is this hard for you?"

he asked me

The person who called me that was so shocking was the student

the Ichinose Honami. The girl who rules class B.

He was always calm, smart and attractive. It seems he has noticed

that I have not given any specific opinion on the exam

and call me.

If I happened to be in the same class as him, I would have

fall in love with him. She's very charming. Not just Class B, boys

the man from the other class must have also completely fallen in love with her.

In the popularity rankings, Ichinose and Kushida will be rivals

heavy.

"Honestly, I was the type to just sit back and relax in the exam

like this" I told him.

"It's too early to give up, let's work together to achieve

in a positive direction!" Ichinose.

"Even if we continue the conversation, I doubt if ‘target’ will

it was easy to tell their identity. Surplusage

hiding their identities exceeded the pronounced loss.

There is a possible worst case scenario

someone materialized " said Ichinose.

Despite uttering such negative comments, Ichinose's eyes did not

lost his confidence. Among the various thoughts that I

have about him, I don't know how he can maintain his attitude

it's through trouble.

"By the way, this is the end of today's discussion. Nice work, though,

you two”

"There's no such thing. We didn't do anything"

Ichinose turned to his classmates instantly. I have been

observed it today, but I can't confirm Ichinose's purpose

actually was. But at least our group still produces one

results like this.

From all I know, he's probably devising a strategy that doesn't

let everyone realize it. When Manabe from Class C and

his friends stood up to leave the room, I chased

them. As soon as I got to the elevator, I immediately called Manabe.

"Do you have time?"

As soon as he saw me, he quickly returned to his guard because

most likely he didn't expect me to call him.

"I heard your conversation with Karuizawa, something about

pushing someone in a cafe or something."

"And what's up with that?"

Usually they won't show interest in me, but when

bringing up the topic, the three girls focused on the attention

them me.

"I'm not 100% sure, but I think I saw Karuizawa pushing

your friend at the cafe" I told them.

"really?"

I'm nodding.

"Yeah, I didn't like how he acted back then, so I thought I was

will give consent"

I lit the fire of the argument between Karuizawa and the girls from the Class

C is intentionally. To be honest, I didn't see Karuizawa do

but I lied to create this situation.

Now, Manabe and the others will definitely take action to

against Karuizawa. I'm so happy to see how Karuizawa will be

respond to this, and how he will change .
