It's still just you, Yagami?

Hey, Otomiya. I thought you might be the representative for Class C.

Not that I think I deserve it.

Maybe they realize you're just that dependable.

We lost a classmate. That loss has had a huge impact.

I never expected Hatano to get expelled, either.

It's a real shame.

Yeah…

Do you think Hosen will come?

I'd say it's about 50-50.

I don't think he will.

Ask Class D for anything and they always demand points.

All the more reason.

If he doesn't show, it guarantees we'll make groups without Class D.

If that happens, their price gouging will leave them all alone.

Oh, Riku and Takuya! I figured it'd be you two!

I take it you were stuck with the annoying job as usual, Osamu?

Our leader's not a fan of the boring stuff.

But that's what I'm here for.

We just waiting on Kazuomi?

Wouldn't it be better if it was just our three classes?

The deserted island will test more than just our academic ability.

D may be in last academically, but they're slightly ahead on athletics.

Spreading their students among our groups will be essential.

I see what you're getting at.

Kazuomi won't group up without points involved.

Not even with Class A.

Still, it's a bit early to cut them off.

I'll admit that Class D would be useful,

but not so much that we need to wait to hear Hosen's demands.

Seems it's too late for that, Riku.

You feel like paying up now?

You suck at jokes.

I won't cough up even a single point.

[Covert Maneuvers] I won't cough up even a single point.

[Covert Maneuvers] Calm down, man.

Calm down, man.

Starting a fight right off the bat won't help our case.

Welp, we're all here, so let's get this started.

You don't get to say when we start!

Hosen, I'm going to ask you to leave the violence at the door.

What, you gonna stop me?

If necessary.

That's funny.

Go ahead and try me, then!

This is pointless, but if it's what you want, I'll do it.

On one condition.

You agree to never lay hands on my classmates again.

Whoa, now, what's that supposed to mean?

I have my suspicions about who got Hatano expelled.

And you think it was me?

Who else would it be?

Both of you, calm down!

We should be focusing on the deserted island survival.

When did I say I'd listen to you?

You came here. Or was that just to kill some time?

And if I said it was?

I wouldn't buy it.

You're not that stupid.

The second- and third-years have already experienced exams like this.

We're going in at an overwhelming disadvantage.

If we don't band together, we'll be easy pickings.

You always say the lamest things, Yagami.

I can handle any second- or third-year.

Not everyone is as blessed as you are.

It's a plain fact that, on the whole, the first-years are well behind.

And that means we need to come together,

and make at least one highly potent group. That's how I see it.

Ideally we should group up students like you, Hosen,

who would never lose to a second- or third-year.

Which would mean we won't be competing over class points for this exam?

Yup. Our upperclassmen don't have so much time before graduation,

but we have plenty.

We should take advantage of that and ignore class points this time.

I don't see much merit in doing that.

That'd be the least of our worries if the other years pick us off.

Hey, could you hold on a sec, Takuya?

Why just one group?

If we're talking about making groups for the exam,

wouldn't it be better if there were more strong ones?

Of course it would!

But if we start with too many, we'd spread our power too thin.

It'd be better to make one ultimate group with a shot at taking first.

After all, our upperclassmen can only make groups of three, from three classes.

And if we can just take first, we can handle whatever else, is that it?

Grouping up without Hosen means using the same strategies as the other years.

We first-years have the exclusive privilege of making four-person groups.

Not taking advantage of it would be a waste.

So please, let's all join hands.

Sure. I don't mind helping.

What's your angle, Hosen?

My angle?

His request to join hands was adorable, so I figured why not.

And what are your conditions?

For the two open slots in the exam's large group,

I want Class D students.

I won't budge on that.

What?

But we don't yet know if we get to choose our own large groups.

Like I said, I won't budge on it.

I see. So if we can't add two Class D students,

you want to stay as a group of only four?

Quit kidding around, Hosen!

Who's kidding? If you don't like it, go ahead and leave.

You piece of…

Calm down, Utomiya.

I don't mind that condition.

The most important part is that the four of us work together.

If we let him have this, he'll ask for more next time.

And if we cut Class D off here, would that change anything?

…No.

What matters is that first-years win this exam.

Then nothing else can harm us.

I agree with him, Riku.

I get how you feel, but we first-years have to stick together.

I won't accept any other demands. Got that, Hosen?

Whatever.

So, we all gonna head to Yukimu's place?

I'm fine with that, but we're going to study, not hang out.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

Ayanokoji,

do you have a moment?

What's up?

There was actually a first-year who asked to meet with you.

Could I borrow you for a bit?

What's this? Is Kiyopon about to get confessed to by a first-year?

I-Is he?!

If so, we can't just let him go.

Well? Am I?

Oh, um, the one who asked to meet was a guy.

Sorry.

Sounds fine.

Interacting with more firsties isn't a bad thing.

True enough. Our group's not exactly great at networking to begin with.

Y-Yeah. If that's all it is, I think you should go.

Alright.

He says he's on his way.

Let's wait here.

You sure managed to make friends with the first-years quick.

Huh? It's already July. We've had plenty of time.

You've already made some first-year friends, too, haven't you?

Not that I would use that word.

R-Really?

Well, there's no need to rush things.

We have time.

Kushida!

This is Yagami. He's the one who wanted to meet with you.

Pleased to meet you, Ayanokoji.

Thank you so much for making time for me.

You were in… 1-B, right?

That's right!

I'm Yagami Takuya.

I actually had something I needed to tell you, Ayanokoji.

You're already aware of the first-year- exclusive special exam, right?

Um, I don't know anything about it. What is it?

Do you mind if I tell her?

I don't have the right to stop you.

It all started just after we enrolled.

We got a summons from President Nagumo.

He said whoever gets Ayanokoji expelled before the second term, no matter how,

would be paid twenty million points.

What? He wants Ayanokoji expelled?!

And twenty million is a huge amount!

Is that even allowed?

We can already tell this special exam is unusual.

And either way, we had no interest in any reward for ruining somebody else,

so we never planned to try.

But why Ayanokoji?

The president said he chose at random from the second-years.

But didn't you think it was odd for there to be an unofficial special exam?

When the president announced it to us,

Acting Director Tsukishiro was right next to him.

It wasn't hard to believe it was a real special exam.

If the Acting Director was there…

Yeah. That makes sense.

The students present were Class 1-A's Takahashi Osamu and Ishigami Kyo,

me from 1-B,

1-C's Utomiya Riku,

and 1-D's Hosen Kazuomi and Nanase Tsubasa. Six of us in all.

And why did you want to tell me this?

I heard that Hosen tried his hand at it and failed.

And that his methods were nothing short of cruel.

I can't deny that.

And that's not all.

If I didn't do anything, Ayanokoji,

I felt it was possible that Kushida might get caught up in it, as your classmate.

I appreciate the tip,

but it might be dangerous for you to tell me this.

Is this a good idea, Yagami? If anyone finds out…

Don't worry, Kushida.

We weren't told about any specific penalties,

and I don't mind if the other first-years hate me for it.

I was already fated to butt heads with the other classes anyway.

Be careful out there, Ayanokoji.

Sure. So, who do you think it is I should be most careful around?

Let's see…

The first that comes to mind is Hosen,

but if I had to narrow it down to just one more…

Actually, I'd better not.

Why? I wanna know!

If I gave a name here,

you two would keep your eyes on them.

I don't feel like that would be fair to the first-year.

Plus I'm not confident in my answer.

I plan to use the deserted island exam to identify any truly dangerous students.

You be careful, too, okay?

I will!

And, um,

I don't mind if it's not until after the exam is over,

but I'd like to tell you something, Kushida.

O-Okay. Got it.

Wonder what it is?

He's a good kid.

Yup!

Good enough he'd be wasted on me.

But this wasn't a development I wanted.

Yagami knows about my past.

Meaning?

I need him gone, and fast.

Getting rid of an underclassman is harder than getting rid of Horikita or me.

That depends on the method.

There's nothing quite so simple as somebody who thinks they're all that.

You and Horikita are no exceptions.

I believe we had an armistice going.

I'll behave, for now!

See you later, Ayanokoji!

Hey, you. We need to talk.

I'm sorry we stopped you like this.

What did you want to tell me?

It's about Hosen Kazuomi.

I assume you already know how uncooperative he can be.

We want to put him in his place during the deserted island survival exam.

He doesn't have many private points right now.

That means if he's forced to drop out early, he can't pay the penalty.

So you want to get him expelled, is it?

Damn right!

I mean yes, that's right.

Mind if I ask why?

A 1-C student, Hatano, got expelled.

I believe Hosen was involved.

So it's payback?

Naturally, I can't say revenge isn't a motivator.

But what's important is making sure nobody else gets expelled.

No kidding. Our class lost 100 points because of that.

And what does that have to do with me?

Hosen doesn't mingle with anyone outside his class,

but he teamed up with you for the April exam.

So you think that gives me an in with him?

Please help us!

We still don't know the details of the exam,

so I can't just agree.

Then would you at least keep cooperation in mind?

If we can get him eliminated early and thus expelled,

I'll pay you a suitable bounty.

Have you considered that I might be on Hosen's side?

I, uh…

That wound on your left hand.

You got that in an altercation with Hosen, right?

What makes you say that?

We also wanted the twenty million, ourselves.

I see. So that's why you pretended you wanted to find a partner back then.

Yeah, pretty much.

But if we did team up, you had no way to get only me expelled.

I don't have a response to that.

I apologize for that,

but we've already pulled out of that exam.

Why?

Because even if we did get you expelled,

that fact would spread like wildfire.

It would turn all of Class 2-D against us.

And wouldn't getting Hosen expelled do the same?

I doubt it.

I'm pretty sure more of his classmates want him gone, if anything.

Anyway, please think about it.

We just want to take Hosen down.

Tick tock.

Your watch is so loud. I hate it.

Can it. This watch is great, you just can't see its value.

I don't care how valuable something I hate is.

Anyway, what did you need?

I want you to team up with me for the deserted island, Amasawa.

You want my help? On a deserted island, of all places?

Got your mind in the gutter, huh?

Huh?

Wanna see my panties? Go ahead, take a peek.

Do you think I won't hit a girl?

Not at all. I'm sure you'd go full force, no question.

Then cut the crap.

Then I guess I should at least ask.

Why does your plan involve inviting me?

Because you had the guts to actually try to get Ayanokoji expelled.

Who wouldn't go all out when twenty million's on the line?

So, what's in it for me?

We're supposed to be equals.

I believe I told you that.

I see. So Nanase and I are both in the group you have in mind.

And who's our fourth?

No need. We'll win on that island with just us three.

Nice bravado, but weren't all four first-year classes going to cooperate,

and make the strongest possible group?

I could have sworn you two would be chosen from Class D.

The one who decides that is me, the leader of Class D.

You catch my drift?

You wanna send a weakling to that group, huh?

You're gonna pick a fight with everybody!

If we send a student with good academics or athletics,

it shouldn't kick up any fuss.

Besides,

it would cause problems if Hosen joined the strongest group.

Yeah, he doesn't seem the type for teamwork.

So, back to the important part. How much will you give me?

We have no points to give.

I'll repeat myself. Our relationship is one of equals.

But our levels of contribution wouldn't be equal, now, would they?

I'm confident I'm a solid asset, be it on a deserted island or anywhere else.

Sure, you might have stamina,

but would somebody as dainty as you be able to keep up with me?

Care to try me?

My, how bold.

Wow, sounds like you're into this sort of thing.

I love me a strong girl.

Saying that proves you're no ordinary girl, yourself.

Does it, now?

We'll make a group of three.

Nanase and me, plus you. Sound good?

I can see now that Nanase's nice and limber,

but I still need a little more convincing before I cooperate.

You have a real attitude there.

Fine, I'll bite. What do you want, besides the group reward?

I want all the points for getting Ayanokoji expelled.

That's my condition.

That's one hell of an ask.

And not one I can just accept.

Then I guess I'll just have to turn you down!

But what's your plan if I do?

You're picking a fight with everybody.

Won't it be hard for you if Nanase's the only one you can trust?

Well, I wouldn't mind giving you all the credit for Ayanokoji's expulsion.

That's plenty, isn't it?

Don't take the offer.

That'd be giving Class A twenty million. If you think ahead…

Shut up.

Amasawa, I'll give you the reward.

Thankya. It's just fantastic when guys aren't stingy.

Alright, I'll see you two on the island.

Are you sure about this?

She's the type to stab people in the back.

I never trusted either you or her.

Then why team up with her?

Because she's not like the rest.

Just like you, there's no bottom to her.

That might be true.

Still, twenty million is an exorbitant demand.

Spoken contracts aren't binding.

If I get the credit for getting him expelled, the reward also goes to me.

She can cry all she wants after. It doesn't mean a thing.

You're horrible.

Ayanokoji, Ryuen, and all the other bastards who stood against me…

I'll make them all pay.

This school's insane rules eat people alive,

and I just can't get enough!
