Hirano pov:-
Just like that, our long exam day ended. The group, no, the entire student
body is exhausted. Our group will definitely rank pretty high.
As long as the average score favors us, our group will definitely stand more
than a good chance. The rest depends on how well Fugino’s group and the
Horikita-senpai's group performed.
Just like our first day here,
all the boys assembled inside the gymnasium. Afterwards, the girls also
began assembling. The results of the special exam for both the boys and the
girls will probably be announced now.
It’s almost 5 o’clock in the evening. It’ll probably be late night by the time
we get back to the school.
“You all did well in the last eight days of this training camp. The contents of
the exam are different of course, but this is a special exam that occurs every
few years. Overall, you all did better than the students who took this special
exam last time. I suppose you could attribute that to all of you having better teamwork”.
The elderly man I haven’t seen before announced all that with a constant
smile on his face. Looks like he’s the one in charge of this training camp.
“First of all, I’ll be announcing the results. For the boys, all groups are above the average set by the school and so there will be no expellees”.
The moment that was announced, I could hear the boys breathe a sigh of
relief.
“I see, so no expellees……”.
Patting himself on the chest, Takeda sighed. Ishizaki lightly taps him on the
back.
“Never once thought we’d be expelled. Because we were aiming for 1st place
after all”.
“Yeah”.
No matter what your feelings are, the fact that we’ve avoided expulsion is a
significant one. However, something about the way that elderly man phrased it seemed off. If there are no expellees among the entire student body then
there’d be no reason to say ‘boys’ in particular. In other words—
“As for the boys’ group that placed first, I’ll only be announcing the name of
its 3rd year leader. For the 1st, 2nd and 3rd years of that group, your rewards
will be handed out to you at a later date”.
After explaining that, the elderly man slowly read the name.
“3rd year, Class C. Ninomiya Kuranosuke-kun’s group placed first”.
That announcement caused a portion of the 3rd years to celebrate. I didn’t
know which group it was for a moment, but I immediately realized that it’s
the group Horikita senpai is in.
It appears Horikita senpai has dominated the battle against Nagumo.
“You did it, Horikita. As expected of you”.
Afterwards, groups starting from 2nd place to last place were announced but
for the seniors that’s merely a bonus. Fujimaki senpai, paying it no attention, praised Horikita senpai.
“Oi, Soga. We’re 1st. We did it!”.
“Yeah!”.
We ended up placing first place.
“1st place secured. Congratulations, Horikita-senpai. As expected of you”.
Nagumo raised his voice and congratulated Horikita senpai. The older Horikita neither replied nor celebrated, remaining silent for the remainder of the announcement.
No, perhaps he’s starting to feel something off about this.
“You lost, Nagumo”.
The 3rd year Fujimaki, who knows nothing, said that to Nagumo. Perhaps he feels like he’s just humbled an upstart junior.
