Class 3-E, the "END CLASS", the class filled with students who were constantly mocked and degraded for what they thought they lack, was just given the chance to earn 10 billion yen from the government. But how can they earn this high amount...

RIKU WAS WALKING DOWN TO A CAFE NEARBY TO HAVE A SMALL SNACK - tired from the day's events and just wanting a quick bite before heading home.
After changing into multiple costumes and traveling into different timezones to take pictures for Koro-sensei's customized yearbook for Class-E, Riku was exhausted - though, she did not expect less from their homeroom teacher.
Such things proved to be a challenge even for the Riku Akiyama.
Stopping by the cafe's window pane, Riku stared at the treats, taking the time to decide to get what she wanted. From the treats, her eyes trailed up to her reflection, spotting the small smile on her face.
Today was fun. She thought.
Soon, however, that fond look turned into one of wary. Riku's eyebrows furrowed, still battling the inner conflict she had for weeks.
Weeks...The young Akiyama still kept such essential information from her teachers - crucial information that could greatly help out with their problem. But...Riku bit the inside of her cheek, looking back to the path she took, straight back at Class-E's hill.
"Listen, Riku." Her father knelt in front of Riku and her mother. "Let us handle the search for now. It will prove more effective if people outside your party look for Yanagisawa-san, there would be less suspicion that way."
Riku's mother nodded, wrapping a comforting arm around Riku. "However, it is best you tell your teachers about this, especially, Koro-sensei. He deserves to know. It will be better for you and your classmates' safety too, it will put an ease on our minds to know that the adults are aware. Plus, Karasuma-sensei is in the government, no?"
Riku's dad's face turned sour, "Best not to have the government involved in our search - they are not quiet when it comes to such things. Yanagisawa-san might find out that they know he is alive and will flee."
"We'll be sure to update you on his whereabouts, so please, tell your teachers and trust us."
Those were her father's words.
Riku let out a sigh. Despite the many chances to do so, something was just pulling her back from telling her teachers anything.
All of them just look so...
A mental picture of her classmates smiling over the Great Wall of China earlier popped into her mind.
Koro-sensei bursting out in enthusiasm as he sped around taking different photos from different angles - Karasuma-sensei hiding his face in embarrassment from the locals while Irina gloated around numbing something about the same roof.
...happy.
Maybe the young girl did not want to ruin that.
In the end, she was still a kid. Maybe a little selfish.
