Settling In - 3

Ayanokouji POV:

I entered the lobby to where I was greeted by a receptionist lady, who directed me to my room which was on the 6th floor.

Once I walked up a few flight of stairs I reached the dorm baring the number 6-20, I'm at the top of the dorm building.

I opened the door and walked in, being greeted by a cold air in a minimal room that would be the size equivalent to 8 tatami mats. I had a bed, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a TV.

I will probably conserve points due to my inability to consume food and I don't really need to shower, since I have a built in system that provides soap and cologne throughout my skin, unfortunately in which I cannot smell it.

I suppose it is a decent living space, it's better than living in a full white room with a bunk bed and a toilet. We used to have a bathroom in our room until my bunk mate killed herself by hanging using the shower curtains, leaving me the sole survivor of the generation.

I feel as if I could store some more private points, as my teacher specified in the speech that we can "purchase anything with points" you could possibly extort points as well.

Gambling could be an option but most first years wouldn't risk spending their limited private points on gambling, it's just a theory though since there is a chance we may receive 100,000¥ each month.

I could possibly extort money from third years, they seemed to have a lot of yen due to them being in five star restaurants I observed. Possibly I could participate in competitions if there are such things and I could win points.

An interesting thought came to my head.

There would be no specific products from outside of the school allowed in school, people might find interest in purchasing clothing or other consumer goods.

I could possibly run an underground market of selling items from the outside in the school, leading to large profit since I will be the only person available for this.

The question is how?

It's simple, my body's ability to deactivate cameras will allow me to exit the island by flying at night, or I could possibly swim if necessary.

I have multiple credit cards allocated to me with billions of yen for my training after the White Room was shut down, I can use this to purchase products that are high demand in Tokyo and sell it on the island.

The only problem would be not getting caught, this would inevitably lead to expulsion from the school and possibly criminal charges since there may be illegal items being sold.

The only option for this would be keeping a low profile, not disclosing my identity and constantly change locations. The school would be suspicious seeing products from off-campus sites on the school ground, in which they would most likely launch an investigation.

I'll muse more on the topic later, but for now I may as well go shopping for necessities to make my room appear normal for visitors.

I entered the convenience store next to the dorm building, in search of almonds and bird seeds.

I scanned the area in a full 360 view and found my neighbor looking at shampoo bottles, she seemed to be focused on shopping and so she wouldn't notice me.

I decided I should walk up to her and introduce myself once more, this could be the third time she has heard me introduce myself but it should seem reasonable.

"Hello, my name is Ayanokouji Kiyotaka."

She turned in my direction and looked me in my eyes with a deadpanned expression, looking exhausted with whatever she is doing.

"This is the third time you introduced yourself Ayanokouji, I'd rather try my best to avoid you so please leave me alone to my shopping."

She then turned her head to the free items in the back and stared at it for a few seconds, then returned back to her shopping.

She hurt my feelings, I think a normal response to this is to clutch the left side of my chest and fall on my knees, so that's what I did.

"ahhhh" I said in a monotone shout and I went through with the dramatic motion, leading to her looking at me in shock and confusion.

"What are you doing?" She said while putting the shampoo in her cart, going back to her usual stern facial expression.

"You hurt my feelings, I'm not sure how to feel anymore." I said while standing back up, dusting the dirt off my pants.

Recovering from my real act, she kept looking at the shampoo descriptions.

"Do you know where the bird seeds are?" I decided to ask, since I feel like small talk would assert my social position in this school.

"They do not sell bird seeds in a convenience store." She said while still looking at the shampoo bottles.

"Where would I find bird seeds?"

"Why do you want bird seeds anyways?"  She asked in an accusing tone, being suspicious of my normal request.

It seems it may be a problem setting up a bird feeder and making it obvious, I may as well lie a bit to relieve her suspicions.

"I want to consume them."

"You're very strange." She huffed then started walking to a different isle, ignoring my request.

It seems I failed, I may as well look at other shops across the campus.
