Real teaching, but diary flow

If you consider the savings that can be made, this deal can be easily recouped in less than eight months, which is incredibly cost-effective.

Even if it's just to get the class back to A-class status, she'd be willing to pay a little more price.

However, Horikita Suzune was never very bright and didn't realize this, so she easily accepted her terms.

The only thing we need to care about is the number of supplies provided.

They only gave 75 points, which means they must have made deals with other classes as well.

Ha, perhaps in a sense, Class D, who took this opportunity to leave and sell their points to everyone, is the real winner?

Glancing at the distant coastline, Sakayanagi Arisu casually opened today's diary.

Let's see what nonsense this guy is planning to spout today.

...The most powerful gym graduate.

Yes, she was talking about Asakusa Tetsu. She knew this man; she had even gone to investigate him recently.

Looking back now, he may have had some connection with the person behind the diary, or perhaps he made some connection with the person behind the diary through Ichinose Honami.

Otherwise, why would that guy in the diary so readily choose to support Ichinose Ban?

Is he in Ichinose's class?

If we're judging by the degree of closeness...

Ryuji Kanzaki, or Hayate Shibata?

Let's put the identity assessment aside for now and focus on the special exam on the deserted island.

The more he writes and acts, the sooner or later I will be able to easily pinpoint his true identity.

Sakayanagi Arisu admitted that Asakusa Toru did indeed have good physical qualities.

Judging from her view of the coast from the ship, at least he moved quite swiftly, easily circumnavigating the island and plundering the strongholds.

No wonder the diary had such confidence in him.

but......

Wasn't that ruthless enough?

She felt that Ichinose's class had done a great job, at least enough to force Class D to take the exam.

Even the leader she specifically chose, Onito Hayabusa, couldn't wrest several strongholds from him.

So far, Class B has only managed to control three outposts in total.

That guy acted so fast that Sakayanagi Arisu even suspected that he had obtained the island's map from the diary beforehand.

However, after recalling the initial island-circling operation, Sakayanagi Arisu proactively rejected the possibility.

If we actually get the map, we should take as many strongholds as possible from the very beginning using the fastest and shortest route.

—Just like what was written in the diary below.

To take things to extremes.

"Oh."

It was quite unexpected; I never imagined that my train of thought would be in sync with that of the diary.

Yes, if it were her, Sakayanagi Arisu, and she had an ace in her hand—an ace with exceptional physical abilities—and possessed both an island map and exam information, then naturally she would want to race as fast as possible.

By locking everyone's chance to be called out, they can declare complete victory on the first day.

Just... leave one?

Following the words on the diary page downwards, Sakayanagi Arisu gently chose to turn the page.

Then she saw a scheme that went beyond her expectations.

'Auction'.

The diary mentions a more thorough plan of plunder.

Is this what it truly means to go to extremes?

No, absolutely not.

For a moment, she was slightly surprised by the auction mentioned in the diary, but she quickly suppressed the sense of frustration that rose in her heart and instead began to look for opportunities to prove that she was better.

Admittedly, bidding can absorb all the benefits a class can obtain. When there are three competitors, in order to ensure that the class's points do not fall to the lowest, there will always be a class that chooses to give up all the 200 points that would be deducted if they do not trade, even if they may not be able to accumulate 200 points through normal exams.

But if we give up here, give up buying that base, give up fighting the Ichinose crew, there might be no chance of turning things around for the next three years.

Unless the school can provide more special exams with varying point values ​​for classes of the same size.

Therefore, if the goal is simply to acquire the entire class's spoils, then bidding is undoubtedly the option that maximizes profits.

However, the two classes that leave the game will have to forfeit a total of 600 reward points, which is a huge waste.

If it were her, she would definitely find a scheme that could manipulate three classes at the same time.

Ideally, we should just get rid of the most useless Class D like we are now, and then plunder the remaining two classes.

"..."

However, Sakayanagi Arisu remained frozen in place for a long time, the wind whistling against her face, carrying a hint of the unique fishy smell of the sea breeze, and ruffling her hair.

Her hand remained gripping the paper; she seemed unable to turn to the next page, let alone immediately activate her stagnant brain to come up with an answer.

Time passed second by second, and Sakayanagi Arisu's pretty face felt slightly cool.

"Achoo—" she sneezed.

If you stay on the deck exposed to the wind, you'll catch a cold.

She's been out in the wind all afternoon.

"Masumi——"

Rubbing her delicate nose, Sakayanagi Arisu intended to call Kamuro Masumi to wipe her nose and help her back to her room.

But she only realized it before she could shout it out.

Oh, Masumi is still on the island.

Helpless, Sakayanagi Arisu put down the diary she hadn't finished reading and gently wiped her nose with a handkerchief.

Then he took his cane and slowly, alone, returned to his room.

It's all because of that sneeze; it interrupted my train of thought.

So it wasn't that I couldn't come up with a better way, which is why I lost; it was because I caught a cold and couldn't continue thinking.

If I keep thinking, I'm sure I'll find the answer.

Sakayanagi Arisu never questioned this.

"Splash—"

Gently turning the pages, the words in the diary continued to come into view.

The words were reflected in the silver-haired princess's pupils.

The usual mockery of Class D, and... oh ho?

Long Yuanxiang cheated.

Sakayanagi Arisu saw something unexpectedly interesting.

Hehehe...

Indeed, reading more diaries does reveal different things.

When she disembarked and landed on the island, she didn't pay much attention to Class C's movements because it was so hot.

So you did something like that?

They managed to get past the school's security check. Hmph, looks like the school administration is living too comfortably.

Was it because the person in question was a student that they didn't check very carefully? Or did they think it was unlikely that someone would leave their belongings in a private place just to take their personal items down with them?

It's necessary to have the father give a good talking-to and to reorganize the teaching staff.

She had wanted to do this before when Chabashira Sae's past was exposed, but now it seems that the quality of the teachers at Advanced Training Institute is really not good enough.

My father had occasionally lamented that truly outstanding teachers tend to choose to go to Shuchiin Academy rather than Advanced Education.

The two schools are clearly at the same level.

As expected, the powerful and wealthy are like that...

"call......"

She let out a long breath, and a slight smile appeared on Sakayanagi Arisu's lips.

This is unexpected good news; the room for maneuver has suddenly become much larger than imagined.

With that in mind, she casually flipped through the rest of the diary without paying much attention to the remaining contents. Sakayanagi Arisu's mind was filled with the thoughts that had just arisen.

She had a really good idea.

but......

It's still early.

Sakayanagi Arisu set her alarm for 4 a.m. and turned off the light.

......

"Ring ring ring—"

The alarm rang at four in the morning.

Sakayanagi Arisu, who woke up on time, got up. The commotion outside Class D had long since subsided.

Sakayanagi Arisu picked up the walkie-talkie that was on the bedside table.

"Masumi-san." At a time when everyone should be asleep, she spoke softly but did something quite outrageous: "Don't sleep."

"Get up, I have a task for you."

There was a brief silence on the other end of the walkie-talkie.

However, Sakayanagi Arisu was not in a hurry.

She knew that Masumi Kamuro would wake up.

"Hmm..." Sure enough, after several gentle wake-up calls into the walkie-talkie, a muffled voice came through: "...Hoo."

“You deserve to die.” Kamuro Masumi responded through gritted teeth.

She woke up.

Ignoring Kamuro Masumi's emotions, Sakayanagi Arisu chuckled and said, "Now, take Hashimoto and Kito with you, and Katsuragi too, and then go find Majima-sensei."

"What are you doing?" Kamuro Masumi casually grabbed her tracksuit jacket, put it on, and then picked up the walkie-talkie to ask casually, "Are you okay in the middle of the night?"

“Hehe, of course we should ‘report’ it.” Sakayanagi Arisu’s smile became even brighter.

She is a proponent of rules, uses rules, abides by rules, and seeks out loopholes in rules.

These are all permitted.

But cheating is not allowed.

Cheating is not allowed.

Doing things outside the rules insults the fairness of competition.

Long Yuanxiang, who only knows how to play petty tricks and schemes, needs to be taught a lesson.

"Report what?"

“Bringing personal belongings to the exam”.

"...Huh?" After a moment of silence, Masumi Kamuro looked completely bewildered. "Are you serious?"

“Of course, didn’t you notice? Their strange behavior when they disembarked should have been quite obvious.” Sakayanagi Arisu said something that even she herself didn’t believe.

She definitely didn't see it, but that didn't stop her from pretending that she had noticed it, which is why she got Masumi Kamuro to take action.

If she said she heard it from someone else and that's why she instructed Kamuro Masumi to report it, that wouldn't sound very convincing.

She actually cares quite a bit about her reputation, surprisingly.
