Classroom Of The Elite 26 Classroom Of The Elite Vol 4 Chapter 2 Part 2 (1/2)

It's al at Hirata However, unlike Hirata, Ichinose and her group would definitely emphasize the victory of Class B in this exauard, a heavy air fell upon us Everyone was becoly wary However, the three students of Class A were freed fro away at their phones There was no rule saying you couldn't contact the other groups after all

Rich is rich and poor is poor, there's nothing else to it Class A can afford to be lax since they were overwhelined their loss during the island test would cause a change in their behaviour but it seee of his class to the other classes And thinking about it carefully, it is indeed a very effective strategy

And especially for a h the wall that Class A had erected ”I don't particularly think we need a breakthrough now, but I do agree with the need for discussion Class Ato break away fro the ”target” reeet” is in the other classes, this is an opportunity that cannot be wasted Or perhaps this attitude is an attee the fact that Yukiet” ”But can you really find theet”'s hard to find, or rather the exam itself is hard” Karuizawa speaks up ”I understand your worries, Karuizawsan But isn't this just a matter of perspective? Both the island test and this current exam, it's ree?”

”Surprise?” Karuizawa asks ”If it's sunrise then you can leave it to -r-e!!!” Soto It's not sunrise, they said surprise ”Living on a shi+p like this is fun isn't it? You can talk or play with your phone however you like, even if you're forced to attend discussion for two hours a day You're still free to do as you wish” ”Wellyeah it is fun”

”Exactly right? That's e need to talk roup of friends You'll just suffer if you hole yourself up in a shell like Machidkun there” Ichinose tries to convince Karuizawa

Certainly if you consider it not as an 'exast your group It's just a matter of perspective like Ichinose said, but theyou are, it'll be easier to clear the exa what Ichinose had to say, Machida just began to laugh ”You guys are free to do whatever you want, but you're very unlikely to find the ”target” this way I don't knohere the ”target” is but if they are not already cooperating with their classmates, they will surely ain points that way And perhaps the ”target” is actually within Class B That is possible too Can you really trust the to shake the hearts of the students gathered there

”The same could be said for you too, Machidkun” Ichinose tells him ”of course” For a moment, Machida broke eye contact with Ichinose To be more precise, his eyes wandered to a student na beside hiain radiated the 'calroup

”We're not particularly hung up on who the ”target” is, we get 100,000 points allocated to us monthly, there's no one in our class who'd be interested in the 500,000 point reward for this exa me you don't want even 1 extra point? It's not like the school imposes a limit on the amount of points you can have” she replies ”That's stupid You can be delusional all you want, but don't accuse us unnecessarily like that” Machida retorts to her Ichinose, who just kept save off the ih Machida claimed he would not participate in the discussions, he had still been baited by Ichinose into answering And as long as he talks, infor Karuizawa and Yuki information from Class A the entire time I wonder whether Machida has noticed it yet

Meanwhile, Karuizawa just kept sighing and fiddling with her phone There are no rules stating one cannot use their phone during the exam's discussion period but it is bad manners for her to do that while the consensus was to find the ”target” Or is Karuizawa actually part of the CIA or FBI and is relaying information to Hirata via phone? If she is, I'd respect her a lotbut I doubt it Of course Karuizawa never putsso this behaviour should be nor is off with Karuizawa Karuizawa acting differently, and the reunion with Ibuki and her argu None of her actions then were the 'usual' Karuizawa In Class D, whether her reputation is good or not, there is no denying that she, along with Hirata, brought the class together as one She norether as one to clear this exam, whether we had the capacity for it or not, but she never showed any sign of it Hirata is Hirata no matter where he is, and Kushi+da is also always Kushi+da But Karuizawa has definitely changed Or perhaps she's feeling inferior to Manabe and her group, who rank above her in terht now for Class D to rise through the ranks is not just gathering more points Compared to classes like A and B, Class D is still severely lacking in cohesiveness

Karuizawa Kei, ill be indispensable for that cohesiveness, is an existence who controls the girls of Class D That's ht now I need to determine whether she will be a useful existence or a useless existence tothat the exa on the circuht need to use force with her Immediately once 1 hour had passed, Class A leaves the roo their silence to the end Ichinose sighs and says ”WellI suppose this is going to be a tough exah on you?” she asks ly, was the student nairl who rules Class B

She's always calm, siven any opinions in particular about the exam and called out to me If I happened to be in the same class as her, I would have fallen in love with her She is just that char Not just Class B, boys from other classes must have definitely fallen for her as well In popularity rankings, Ichinose and Kushi+da would be direct rivals

”Honestly, I'm the type to sit back and relax in an exaive up, let's work together to point this in a positive direction!” Ichinose encourages ht hard now ”Even if we continue the dialogues, I doubt the ”target” will si their identity outweighs the de, Class A's worst case scenario prediction would coative remark like that, Ichinose's eyes did not lose their confidence Aure out how she was able to h adversity

”Either way, it's the end for today's discussion Good work, both of you” ”No such thing We didn't do anything much” Ichinose switches over to her classmates instantly after that I have observed her for today, but I was unable to ascertain what Ichinose's real ai results this way She y she cannot let anyone else know about for all I know When Manabe of Class C and her friends stood up to leave the room, I chased after them Once they reached the elevator, I casually called out to Manabe

”Do you have some time?” I ask her Once she noticed uard since sheu over so with that?” she retorts Norht that topic up, all three girls focused their attention to me ”I'm not 100 sure, but I think I saw Karuizawa push over your friend at the cafe” I told them

”R-really?” Manabe asked me stiffly I nod ”Yeah I didn't like how she acted back then, so I thought I'd give you a heads up” I aduirls deliberately Truthfully, I didn't see Karuizawa do anything like that, but I lied to create this situation Now, Manabe and the others are sure to take action against Karuizawa I'm very excited to see how Karuizaill respond to that, and how she will change

Once I got back to my room, it was already late and I collapsed on the bed without talking with anyone Once it was close to 00:00, I thought I'd go to sleep but then I heard a noise It was Hirata as staring atin the sofa installed in our room ”Good work out there, Ayanokouji-kun You're quite late” he said toHirata” I tell him ”You must be tired, but if you're ok with just a while, I'd like to ask you so at the sa too?” Hirata asks me

”No, I'll listen to you first, Hirata My question is just so trivial” Yuki, probably so related to the exam at hand If I refuse to listen now, theinto htly a bit to give me space to sit on the sofa as well I wanted to ask Hirata if he had any infori but there's no probleot asked for consultation on the exaht I'd report it to you as well” Hirata tells h” he added I suppose Kouenji in the same room as us would not be interested in such talk after all ”Sorry Hirata Boy, I a my physical beauty” hat Kouenji said Kouenji, with a naked upper body, was repeatedly doing push ups in the roo quite a bit but that did not seeh school student would be capable of But is Kouenji even properly participating in this exahts ”Kouenji-kun is actually participating in the groups After all, points do get deducted if he does not show up” Hirata offered

”I actually received word froned as the ”target” you know” Hirata tells h, they only told me because they trustedyou don't trust us, Hirata? If you know, I also have the right to know Also, if we knoho the ”target” is we et a hint to clear the exam better Besides, it's only natural that as fellow classmates, we share information with each other” Yukiht to consult you on itthe truth is” Hirata said That's why he wanted to talk to us like this, he already kneho soht be better for you to tell us via phone just in case There's no telling who's sniffing around where” I told hiive me a moment” Hirata told us Hirata then turned on his phone and flipped it in our direction And two naroup and Minaroup These were the identities of two ”targets”
