Chapter 279 Mission: Impossible

Originally, Ryuuen only wanted to steal the key from Nanyun and save Hoshinomiya. The current situation is completely beyond Ryuuen's expectations, and acting rashly is not a good choice.

Now if Ryuuen wants to stay out of this, he just needs to continue pretending to have lost his memory and wait until things are over.

However, Ryuuen did not want to stand idly by. This incident obviously would not involve ordinary students, but it must be related to Ayanokouji. Ryuuen and Ayanokouji had a close relationship. Although they could not be said to share a common destiny, they did have a friendship. Ryuuen still wanted to save Ayanokouji at this time. Ikusei High School would definitely be quite boring without Ayanokouji.

It's difficult to fight alone. If Ryuuen wants to rely on himself, it will be difficult to fight against Nanyun and Tsukishiro at the same time. Although Chairman Sakayanagi deliberately avoided him, since he was caught by him, there is no reason not to visit him.

Ryuuen was waiting for Nagumo to come out of the utility room. He looked very worried and it was unknown what he talked about with Chairman Sakayanagi.

After making sure that Nanyun had gone far away, Ryuuen knocked on the door of the utility room.

Surprisingly, the door was not opened. Ryuuen gripped the door handle and found it was locked.

It seems that Chairman Sakayanagi is still very vigilant, and it will take some time to get him to open the door.

Although Ryuen could break the door directly, that would be very impolite and would make too much noise, attracting the attention of others.

The door of the utility room is just an ordinary wooden door, which is completely different from the door of the monitoring room. However, it is understandable. After all, the security protection factors of the two locations are completely different.

The solution Long Yuan thought of was very simple, which was to keep knocking on the door. The "dong dong dong" sound was very annoying.

Ryuen was thinking, why did Chairman Sakayanagi open the door for Nagumo after he knocked a few times, but when it was Ryuen's turn, Chairman Sakayanagi never opened the door? Was there a pattern when Nagumo knocked on the door? What code did they set?
There is no peephole on the door of the utility room, and the surrounding cameras can only be accessed by the monitoring room, so it is very likely that there was some secret code when Nanyun knocked on the door.

But Ryuuen had already been knocking for a while, and there would obviously be something wrong if he changed to knocking the door the way Nanyun did. Ryuuen could only keep knocking. Although it was annoying, it could convey a message to the person inside the door.

When ordinary people knock on the door, Chairman Sakayanagi doesn't open it. He wants to pretend that no one is in the utility room so that the person knocking on the door will leave.

Ryuen kept knocking on the door, but Chairman Sakayanagi didn't open it, so Ryuen kept knocking. He wanted to tell Chairman Sakayanagi inside, "I know you are inside, come and open the door, or I will keep knocking."

This is a game that requires patience, and it is not certain who will be able to persevere to the end.

Ryuuen knocked for ten minutes until his hands turned red, but Chairman Sakayanagi still didn't open the door.

Ryuen even doubted whether Chairman Sakayanagi was really not in the room. Was there some secret passage inside, and had Chairman Sakayanagi already left through the secret passage?
There is such a possibility. If that is the case, then isn't it stupid for Long Yuan to knock on the door here?
Just as Long Yuan was guessing, the door finally opened.

"I was wondering who was knocking on the door, and it turned out to be you."

Chairman Sakayanagi had a face full of complaints, and it seemed that he was very annoyed.

Long Yuan walked sideways into the utility room and closed the door.

"You knew it was me, why didn't you open the door for me earlier? I've been knocking for so long that my hands are sore."

"I didn't know it was you. Before you opened the door, I thought it was a staff member or an ordinary student. But when you kept knocking, I realized something was wrong. I thought that as long as I didn't open the door, you would leave. I didn't expect you to be so patient."

Chairman Sakayanagi looked helpless.

Long Yuan looked at the utility room. If it weren't for the utility room sign hanging on the door, Long Yuan really couldn't tell that this was a utility room.

The interior is completely furnished with bedroom furnishings, including a bed, table, chairs, wardrobe, slippers, and toiletries.

The only difference from an ordinary room is that it has no windows and no water. You can see several large buckets of purified water in the corner of the utility room.

"Chairman Sakayanagi, is your accommodation situation so difficult on your business trip?"

Ryuuen teases that Chairman Sakayanagi is on a business trip.

Chairman Sakayanagi then countered, "That's naturally not comparable to you guys who are here on vacation."

Ryuuen was too lazy to argue with Chairman Sakayanagi about these trivial matters, and Chairman Sakayanagi was in no mood to argue with Ryuuen about these useless things.

The pleasantries are over and the main topic begins.

"Why are you on the boat?"

"I have no reason to tell you."

"I've discovered everything, but you're not going to tell me?"

"This matter is very troublesome. The fewer people involved, the better. It's better if you are not involved in this mess."

"Although I would love to do so, unfortunately, I can't do it."

Ryuuen sat on Chairman Sakayanagi's relatively clean bed, while Chairman Sakayanagi, as the host, sat on a chair. Ryuuen really took over the reins.

Chairman Sakayanagi stared into Ryuuen's eyes, but Ryuuen did not back down.

Helplessly, Chairman Sakayanagi was defeated again.

"I have been staying on this ship since your uninhabited island exam."

"That was really unexpected. If I hadn't followed Nanyun, I wouldn't have found you."

Chairman Sakayanagi was not surprised that Ryuuen found him by following Nanyun. After all, he would not have any contact with anyone else except Nanyun, so Nanyun was the only point where he could be exposed.

"The people above have already discovered that there is something wrong with Tsukishiro, so they released me early. According to the original plan, Tsukishiro will attack Ayanokouji during the exam. The school will use this opportunity to control Tsukishiro and use him as a handle against Ayanokouji, and I will be responsible for the subsequent cleanup work."

The school's work efficiency is still acceptable. No wonder Tsukishiro was so anxious to take action against Ayanokouji. It turns out that the people above wanted to deal with him.

"Sakayanagi, are you slacking off? I didn't see you doing anything during the test on the uninhabited island."

Ryuen expressed doubts about the content of Chairman Sakayanagi's work.

Chairman Sakayanagi poured a glass of water for Ryuuen in a paper cup. After all, as the host, he still had to entertain the guests.

"You don't think that the homeroom teacher can be bribed so easily by a student like you, do you? Also, when you and Ayanokouji were poisoned, didn't you notice that the medical team arrived so quickly?"

Ryuuen narrowed his eyes. So that's how it is. Chairman Sakayanagi was behind all of this.

"So what's the situation now? Wasn't Yue Cheng taken away? Why is he not only not punished, but also back on the ship?"

This is what Ryuen is confused about. After all, he saw Tsukishiro being taken away before he fainted from the poison. Chairman Sakayanagi's plan should have succeeded. "You know a lot. I thought you just discovered me by accident, but it seems you discovered Tsukishiro before you discovered me."

"I didn't discover the Moon City, I discovered the Star Palace."

"Teacher Hoshinomiya? What does she have to do with this? Is she and Yuecheng together?"

After these three questions, Ryuuen already felt that something was wrong with me. Nanyun didn't even tell Chairman Sakayanagi that he had imprisoned Mr. Hoshinomiya. What on earth did Nanyun want to do?

"First, tell me why Yuecheng is still on the ship."

Chairman Sakayanagi sighed, "Originally, the ship escorting Yuecheng had already sailed away, and I was going to leave this utility room and lead you back to school, but I didn't expect an accident to happen on the way."

Ryuuen took a sip of water and waited for Chairman Sakayanagi to finish the second half of the speech.

"The people escorting Yue Cheng were swapped out. They were all replaced by his people. They returned to the ship and took control of it."

Ryuen teased Chairman Sakayanagi: "You guys are not a piece of iron. You were easily invaded by the other side. Are you too corrupt internally that even such a mistake could happen? You are too lazy."

But just as Long Yuan finished teasing, he realized that he had forgotten an important point.

"Wait, what do you mean Yuecheng and the others took control of the ship?"

Chairman Sakayanagi's face was calm: "It's just what it says. They have controlled more than half of the crew on the ship, most importantly the crew in the cockpit."

Ryuuen's eyes widened. He understood what Chairman Sakayanagi meant.

"The ship is no longer heading towards the school."

Ryuuen had a gloomy face. The students were so immersed in playing that they didn't realize that the direction of the ship had changed.

It's really like dying in comfort.

"Tsukishiro did change the original direction of the ship, but his target was Ayanokouji, so it would not have any impact on other students. It just took him an extra detour. But Ayanokouji was not so lucky. It is estimated that when the ship docks, Ayanokouji will be captured."

Ryuuen finally understood why Tsukishiro had to hide when he returned to the ship, and why Nagumo had to hold a treasure hunt.

They are all sleight of hand, the purpose is to deceive people.

If the students on the ship knew that the ship had been hijacked, it would inevitably cause panic, so Yuecheng was so low-key, and Nanyun's game was just to make everyone let down their guard and indulge in a comfortable environment so that they would not think about unnecessary things.

In fact, Tsukishiro and Nanyun's plan was successful, because Ayanokouji did not notice anything abnormal with the ship. If it were not for chance and Ryuen's discovery, Ayanokouji would have been doomed.

After understanding the whole story, it was Ryuuen's turn to answer Yuecheng's questions.

"Teacher Hoshinomiya was locked in the monitoring room by Nanyun."

Ryuen started to scare Chairman Tsukishiro as soon as he spoke.

"How could he do such a thing? How dare he do such a thing?"

"I don't have to lie to you. It was Teacher Hoshinomiya who told me that she caught Nanyun and Yuecheng plotting, so she was discovered by Nanyun and then locked up. Do you know what the relationship between Nanyun and Yuecheng is?"

Could it be that Nan Yun was really from Yuecheng? Nan Yun's background was quite innocent, and he had no connection with the White House at all. Logically speaking, it was unlikely that he would be recruited by someone from Yuecheng.

And the more important point is that Nan Yun is a very proud person. Although he is not noble, the possibility of him risking his life for profit is also very small.

Chairman Sakayanagi clasped his hands together, thinking about whether to tell Ryuen some more specific details. In order to prevent Ryuen from doing anything extreme, Chairman Sakayanagi decided to tell Ryuen the truth.

"It was me who asked Nanyun to take the initiative to contact Yuecheng. If I must say, Nanyun was a chess piece I placed next to Yuecheng."

Chairman Sakayanagi's words made him look like the big boss behind the scenes, but Ryuuen ruthlessly exposed his mask.

"Pawn? I think it's a spy. And do you really have control over Nanyun? He didn't even tell you that he imprisoned Master Hoshinomiya. It's hard to say whether he is on your side or on Yuecheng's side."

Nan Yun is like the lead actor in Mission Impossible. Ryuuen can no longer tell which side he is on.

Chairman Sakayanagi has confidence in Nanyun: "I trust Nanyun, he won't betray me."

"Naive, you are still so naive at this age. I'm afraid the only source of information about your current situation is Nanyun. Then what is the difference between you staying in this utility room and being locked up in the monitoring room of Xing No Gong? You are both imprisoned by Nanyun."

Even though Ryuen's words were harsh, they made sense. It was too easy for Nanyun to betray, and we should not have too much trust in Nanyun's character.

"If Nagumo is not trustworthy, then are you trustworthy?"

Ryuuen didn't expect that Chairman Sakayanagi would be so good at learning from others' experience and applying it to himself. For a moment, Ryuuen was so angry that he almost laughed.

However, it is also understandable what Chairman Sakayanagi was thinking. After all, his words are not enough, and Ryuuen could not produce any evidence as to whether Nanyun had imprisoned Mr. Hoshinomiya. Although Ryuuen did not have such an intention, he did try to sow discord between Chairman Sakayanagi and Nanyun from the moment he entered the door.

It is normal to be suspected. The reason why Ryuuen was so angry that he laughed was not because Chairman Sakayanagi was doubting him. He and Chairman Sakayanagi have been friends for a long time, so it is harmless to be suspected. The main reason is his attitude. It is obvious that he is protecting his own people. Therefore, the Student Union is the dog of the school, especially the Student Union President, who is even more loved by the school.

Ryuuen didn't want to continue talking to Chairman Sakayanagi about the issue of trust. There were more important things to ask right now.

"Yuecheng changed the route. I don't believe you will do nothing. Just now, when I said that the only way you get information is Nanyun, you obviously avoided my gaze. In other words, you still have contact with the outside world. Don't hide it. I came to you instead of reporting you to Yuecheng. I have already made my attitude clear. There is no problem of trust."

Chairman Sakayanagi did not expect that Ryuuen could guess so many things through his little actions.

"And I do have contact with the outside world. If nothing unexpected happens, someone will come to rescue us within two days. The rescue ship is already on the way."

"Have you told Nanyun about this?"

"……No."

"You don't trust Nanyun as much as you say."

Chairman Sakayanagi was silent. He indeed did not tell Nanyun about the rescue, mainly because Nanyun was too close to Tsukishiro and he was afraid that he would be exposed.

Although Chairman Sakayanagi said that they could be rescued in two days, Ryuuen still had a bad feeling.
