Kiyotaka's POV.

6 Am of the Second Day.

__________________________________

Right now, I was seating on one of the branches of the biggest tree which was located right next to the river. Leaning on the tree I looked around, tents were stationed on the opposite sides of the river, trees: small and big were scattered around the area, plants shaking by a fragile wind earring for the rain were all over the place.

Continuing to walk around with my eyes I wondered. Although this exam was designed in a way that students are forbidden to attack other classes, it fascinates me how many flaws in the exam they still made, Can't help but wonder which tricks other students might discover.

After another 5 minutes or so I saw someone walking out of the tent, with observing the person for another moment I recognised Chiaki Matsushita by her shoulder length brown hair.

As I was wondering in my mind I slowly jumped from the branch on which I was leaning and greeted Matsushita who apparently was the first one to get up.

"Good Morning, Matsushita, you're quite early."

On this she smiled slyly.

"Good morning Ayanokoji-kun, it's certainly beautiful here in the morning."

"Indeed, although created by hand, I feel like this place has its own special thing."

Chuckling she commented, "Quite a generous comment coming from you."

"What do you mean by that, I'm just stating what I think I guess."

"Yeah yeah, whatever."

"You just wanted to tease me didn't you,Matsushita."

"Took you long enough Sherlock, anyway, how did it go yesterday ?"

Answering to her I leaned on the nearby tree and observed a slow flow of the river.

"Well, we will see how it goes, we don't need to be hasty in this regard."

As an answer she just nodded and pointed in direction of Hirata who was also exiting his tent.

"Morning Hirata/Hirata-kun." We said in unison.

"Good morning to you two as well."

After reaching the two of us he said.

"It's certainly a remarkable view we have here guys, it really feels like we're one big team going on the outdoor journey."

"Although this exam is a bit troublesome in my opinion you certainly have a point there Hirata-kun."

"Haha, I agree with you Matsushita-san, by the way Ayanokoji-kun, are you planning on going for another long run through the island as yesterday?"

"Yes, while I managed to make some handwritten notes of the eastern and southern parts of the island, I still need to go on the north side."

"Fair enough, though don't you think it will be better to wait a bit for others to wake up and take someone with you ?"

"I thought about it but..."

"Hohoho, Hirata-boy, look at this beautiful sky we have here, don't you see that a rain is sure to fall soon enough ?"

As we turned our heads to the owner of the voice we found ourselves looking at the shirtless Kounji who was literally hanging upside-down on the branch of the tallest tree around here.

"Good morning there Kouenji, you're right in your comment, although initially I planned to stay here for longer, the rain is sure to fall soon, so I have to hurry up."
