Real teaching, starting from scratch, knowing the plot, I just lay down!

Oh.

Then there is basically no problem.

Because the original book groups students according to the time notified by the examination rules, all students notified at the same time will be divided into one large group.

Just now, Ichinose called and Nakano Yuu asked the same question. The other party was going to gather at six o'clock.

Then, just like him, you will be assigned to the same group.

Horikita, Ryuen, and Katsuragi were all due to gather at 8:40, forming a large group. This was a group specifically created by the school to bring together the leaders of each class. The goal was likely to encourage testing and competition between the leaders of the different classes.

But Nakano Yuu isn't here.

Chabashira-sensei is somewhat biased.

Of course, it is also possible that Chabashira complied with his ideas and demoted him instead of relying on him to lead Class D.

These are all consistent with the arrangements in the original work.

Then it should still be an exam for those with preferential treatment.

However, Nakano Yuu remembered that Ichinose said she would also gather at six o'clock, so would he be assigned to the same group as Ichinose?

I clearly wanted to contact her, but I didn't find the opportunity. Now the opportunity comes to me.

What a fate.

Think so.

[Everyone has received the exam notice, right? Is anyone gathering at 6 o'clock? I'm gathering at 6 o'clock.]

Nakano Yu sent a message in the class group.

And soon.

The students had all accepted it and were going to continue having fun on vacation, but when they were suddenly told that they had to take an exam, they were a little confused.

Therefore, most of the students were paying attention to the information in the class group. When they found that Nakano Yuu had brought it up, they naturally joined in the conversation.

【Kushida: I'm 8:40.】

[Sotomura: It's six o'clock sharp, Nakano-kun, we're together.]

Yukimura Teruhiko: It's six o'clock, too.

【Karuizawa Megumi: It's six o'clock, too.】

in this way.

Except for Nakano Yu's team who were reconciling accounts and Kushida-san who had already known that there was another exam and that Nakano Yu would need her, she chose to reveal her information.

The other students also began to look for members of their group.

After Nakano Yu confirmed that these lists were no different from the original works, he immediately sent a private message to Karuizawa.

[Nakano Yuu: Are you and I gathering at 204 o'clock and heading to room ?]

【Karuizawa: Yes.】

[Nakano Yuu: That's right, I need your cooperation for this exam.]

[Karuizawa: Does that mean the favor can be repaid?]

[Nakano Yuu: ...Probably, so please cooperate with me in this exam.]

【Karuizawa: Then what do you want me to do? 】

Nakano Yuu: Well, first of all, during the exam, he was a bit cold towards me. Like, he seemed to be ostracizing me.

【Karuizawa:……】

【Karuizawa: No, what do you think? 】

Yeah. What do you think?

Karuizawa thought that Nakano Yuu wanted her to cooperate with the exam, so in order to avoid making this move seem awkward, she even took the initiative to contact him.

But now the relationship is breaking up?

But what can Nakano-san do? He is also desperate.

[Nakano Yuu: There's a girl I like in this group. So I don't want her to see me getting too close to other girls.]

【Karuizawa:……】

I see. If that were the case, Karuizawa couldn't refute it.

But who is the girl he likes?

Today the groups gathered at 6 o'clock. The students who went to room 204, weren't they her, Nakano Yuu, Sotomura and Yukimura in the class?

Or does he like her?

impossible.

It is absolutely impossible.

Otherwise, she wouldn't keep her distance from him and act cold.

……

The cruise ship has a total of nine floors, five on deck and four below deck.

There are five floors above, and the first floor is a lounge and a banquet hall, which are public places.

The second to fifth floors are all guest rooms.

Boys live on the third floor and girls live on the fourth floor.

The teacher lives on the second floor.

The fifth floor has luxurious guest rooms, which are the highest-end ones.

Although this is the arrangement, there is no restriction on boys entering the girls' floor.

The three floors below are various entertainment facilities.

Such as cinemas, opera houses and so on.

The fourth underground floor is the distribution room, which is usually visited by staff.

"Dong dong!"

At five fifty-five, Nakano Yu came to the second floor and knocked on the door of room 204.

"Please come in."

And a response soon came from inside the door.

When he pushed the door open, Nakano Yu saw the young man sitting in front of him on the chair at first sight.

The former homeroom teacher of Class A, Tomoya Mashima.

There was a stack of papers on the table in front of him, probably the materials for this exam.

Yu Nakano thought he had entered the room on time, but he found that there were only two boys in the room.

Moreover, he knew both of these people.

They are Sotomura and Yukimura from the same class.

Sotomura is a poor student, but Yukimura is a top student.

This was the grouping of students that everyone knew about in the class group, so there was nothing surprising about it.

Nakano Yuu sat down next to Yukimura, but there was an empty chair next to him.

Moreover, he also knew who this vacancy was reserved for.

"It seems that the only students from our class gathered in this room at six o'clock."

Unlike other people, Yukimura still likes to use his brain.

"The exam is about to begin. Please keep your phone on vibrate or turn it off."

Teacher Majima glanced at Nakano Yuu and said lightly.

"Ok, no problem."

Nakano Yu nodded slightly, then turned on the [vibrate] function in front of Mr. Majima, and then placed his phone on the table openly.

"..."

Majima glanced at his phone and saw the 'calling' displayed on it, his brows twitching.

But he couldn't get angry.

Because the rules require that mobile phones be kept on vibrate or turned off, but it does not say that they must be turned off, nor does it say that students cannot play with mobile phones.

So actually, no matter what students do, even if they are making phone calls, it doesn’t matter, as long as they don’t make any noise—

As for making sound, just connect headphones and there will be no problem.

"Can it still be like this?"

Hideo Sotomura was stunned, and his heart was a little excited. He was eager to learn from Yu Nakano and take out his mobile phone.

He doesn't want to make a phone call, but he wants to play with his phone.

But Mashima Tomoya was sitting in front of him, so he didn't dare.

"really."

Nakano Yuu understood clearly that there were loopholes in the school rules.

It’s not that the school that made the rules was not rigorous, but that they deliberately left the bugs.

Their purpose is to make students cooperate with each other and engage in intrigue.

"Students from classes A, B, and C would probably bring cameras to a gathering like this, and I think the students from the original class A might also bring recorders."

And Nakano-san added.

"..."

Majima.

Majima-sensei fell silent. He didn't say it was okay, but he didn't say it wasn't either. But he didn't prompt Nakano-san to end the call.

"Tick! Tick!"

The music box-style clock in the room ticked away, and time passed by minute by minute.

Because the teacher was sitting in front of them, they all kept quiet and no one spoke.

The atmosphere seemed a little quiet.

Time passed minute by minute, and it was six o'clock.

"Dong dong!"

There was a new knock on the door, and Majima Tomoya said calmly, just like before, "Come in."

"excuse me."

A girl with golden ponytail walked in, speaking politely but seeming nonchalant.

Seeing Nakano Yuu and the others, he looked a little surprised, "You're all here."

"You're late, sit down."

Mashima Tomoya looked up at her and said very coldly.

"Yes."

Karuizawa pouted, replied weakly, and sat down in front of Nakano Yu.

Then, as if feeling a little uncomfortable, he moved his chair away from Nakano Yuu.

This scene made both Tomura and Yukimura take a second look. Because these two people...are they so unfamiliar?

"Class D, Sotomura Hideo, Yukimura Teruhiko, Nakano Yuu, and Karuizawa Megumi, right?"

Mashima Tomoya looked at their faces, then lowered his head as if checking the list. Finally, he said, "Now that everyone is here, I will give you an explanation of the special exam."

Everyone was mentally prepared, so they just quieted down.

"For this special exam, the school will divide all first-year students into twelve groups based on the Chinese zodiac. We will hold exams within these groups, and the exams will test your thinking ability."
