Ah. I see how it works now.
After gaining the information of who the "target" in the other groups in class D are, I decided to try cracking down on the code surrounding the exam.
It was far too easy however, surprisingly so.
Something wasn't right.
Does the school underestimate us students that much? Or is it all simply a trap? To lure people who think they've found the code in.
"Hey, Koenji-kun?"
"Yes Shizukana-kun?"
"How do you feel about earning some more points?"
"Hmm? I'm listening."
"You've figured out the rules for the exam too, right? I want to test out whether or not the school is trying to t-trick us or not. Can you turn traitor to your group? I'll give you an extra 50,000 private points regardless if your assessment is correct."
"Oh? A measly 50,000?"
I rose a brow.
"You were planning to end the group anyway, were you not? I'm just asking for you to tell me t-the name of the "target" if you end up being right, and likewise if you were wrong."
"Hmph, how observant." He still had his confident smile on, his eyes closed.
"Well, if it's an extra 50,000 on top of what I'll earn, I suppose it's worth the hassle."
I sighed at his words.
"Is it really a hassle?"
"Indeed."
"Just do it please."
"Why of course, I was planning on doing such anyways."
You...!
"Right, thanks."
"Now, what is the other thing you'd like me to do?"
I smirked.
"Caught on huh?"
...
The uproar that Koenji caused by turning traitor and ending his group early was rather expected.
I'd already been aware that apart from C class, there was a mutual interest for each group to aim for the first result, so Koenji doing this is bound to stir up all kinds of trouble.
However, I'd learned what I needed to.
The school really does underestimate us.
With that in mind, I had to put some precautions in place.
Taking a seat at the restaurant, I warily glanced around, taking notice of someone in specific, but pretending I didn't see them.
I heard a boisterous laugh, shaking me from my thoughts, and I looked up to see Koenji standing across from me.
I paled somewhat.
"How are things my adoring fan? It appears you were correct about the exam."
I sighed.
"Of course I was, so then, was I also right about the school trying to trick us?" I asked quietly.
Again taking a glance around, I noticed that while there were a few students here and there, considering what time at night it was everybody was too tired to pay attention.
In other words, everyone around us was just here to relax.
"Why of course! You were spot on on your assumption."
