If he sees merits in an action, he'll do it. That's how (Y/N) lived his life. As emotionless as he may seem, behind that mask of his hidden a child that wants to be free from his past and mindset.

Hirata: Everyone! Ike-kun and the others found a spot at the head of a river. Let's meet up with them!
All of us gathered our things and started moving. However, Koenji wasn't here.
I approached Hirata and asked about Koenji.
Hirata: Koenji went swimming after patrolling. You didn't go anywhere, (L/N)-kun, you must have seen him.
Me: No, unfortunately. Maybe I fell asleep when he returned.
Hirata: You fell asleep? I've never seen you fell asleep in classes before.
Me: That is because I had my coffee.
Hirata: Ah, I see. You didn't get a cup this morning?
Me: No.
Hirata: Well, they gathered us early, after all.
He started asking me some random things and I just answered him.
Hirata: You know, I'm surprised of how talkative you are today.
Me: Just trying not to be rude. That's all.
Hirata: Haha, I see.
After a few minutes of walking, we finally at Ike's chosen place. They were all marveled at the beauty of Mother Nature's blessings. Hirata and his team started setting up the tents and other necessities for camp near the river.
Classmate 1: The water is so clear!
Classmate 2: That's a great spot.
The girls seemed pleased with the camping spot. The environment here was perfect, but this place looked as if it had been maintained. I highly doubted this location was naturally perfect. The school most likely set it up for this purpose.
Hirata: This might be the ideal place for our base camp. You're amazing, Ike-kun.
Ike: I know, right?
I looked around and saw a device on an unnaturally placed boulder beside a large tree.

Me: So that's it... Only the leader of each class can take possession of a spot.
Hirata: Assuming we want to use this as our base camp, the question is whether or not to take possession of it.
Ike: We should, shouldn't we? If we do, we can use the river, and we'll get points for every eight hours!
Hirata: Yeah, but that means the leader needs to renew possession for every eight hours.
