"Katsuragi, Ryuen, Kushida, Hirata, Ryuji, and other NPCs? This is a group of death. "

I said to Horikita who was enjoying her breakfast.

"Right? I felt like someone was designed everything to come out like this."

Horikita, Hirata, and Kushida were in the Dragon group with the important people from other classes. These three weren't normal people too.

"Maybe it's just a coincidence. " I said.

"Threw everything to the fate again, Ayanokouji-Kun. "

"Well, although there are these people in your group. But don't forget that Honami was in my group too. " I pointed out.

Ichinose Honami was the leader of class B. In fact, Ryuji was like her sidekick.

"Say, Ayanokouji-Kun. What do you think of your group?" Horikita asked.

"Otaku, gal, male version of you, my ex-girlfriend, the thief. Well, what a dream group. " I answered her.

The girl shrugged her shoulder. "You will handle it anyway."

At 08.00 o'clock. Our phone rang out at the same time.

I took my phone out of my pocket as well as Horikita's.

We looked at each other eyes and knew we were thinking in the same way.

"Rock, paper, scissors!" I said and extended my hand to her.

Horikita who showed me her phone raised her eyebrows.

"What are you doing?"

"You look at me, I think you want to play rock, paper, scissors."

"What? I think you will show me your email as I do!"

"Oh, I see. Sorry."

I showed her my email and looked at hers.

Horikita's email: According to the fair allotment, you aren't chosen to be VIP. Please do the group activity by realizing that you are the member of the group challenging the test. The test will begin at 13.00. The member of the Dragon group, please be together at the dragon's room on the second floor.

My email: According to the fair allotment, you are chosen to be VIP. Please do the group activity by realizing that you are the member of the group challenging the test. The test will begin at 13.00. The member of the Hare group, please be together at the hare's room on the second floor.

Horikita raised her eyes and looked at me.

"So you are the VIP?"

"Yes. Ayanolucky. " I said with my monotone voice.

"Good. This means you have a chance to get many personal points."

"I think I'm rich now."

Horikita grabbed my hand and looked at me with cute eyes.

"Ayanokouji-Kun---" She said with a sweet voice.

Wait, Horikita was that kind of girl that want to date a rich guy?

Her hand grabbed harder until I exclaimed with pain.

"Please remember, if you make our class lose 50 points, I will use all effort to make sure that you won't find any piece of happiness in this school anymore."

Trust me, ma'am. Being with you, I had no clue what happiness was.

...

I met Yukimura and Doc at the ladder to the second floor. At first, I thought about going in and greeting them but after I heard their conversation----

"Yukimura-Dono. I still insist, Oppai is truth, sir."

"Quality is more important than size, Sotomura. Flat is justice."

"Ami is bigger than Taika and we all know who is the best girl, sir."

"First, Taika is the best girl. Second, when they're older. The big one will become the ballsack but the surfboard will always be the surfboard! The flat is the secure investment!"

Personally, I thought the medium is premium. But since I considered the breast as the lesser quality copy of butt, I decided to not interrupt their debate.

After waiting for five minutes, the battle ended with no one winning. Then, they noticed me.

"Oh, Kiyotak-Dono. Nice to see you."

"You come in time, let's go to the room."

I nodded and walked following them. On the way, Doc kept talking with Yukimura and didn't turn to me at all.

I felt a little bit peevish. Doc was the first friend who called me with my first name but now, Yukimura stole him from me.

Mo! I won't play with you anymore, Doc. Hm! I had my tsundere and shy friend waiting for me!

When we were before the Hare room's door. Yukimura knocked first and I heard the familiar voice answer.

"Yes. Come in." Honami opened the door and invited us to come in. I nodded as replied to her greeting smile before noticing that we were the last ones.

In that room, a group of students was waiting for us. But except for Honami, Ibuki, and Karuizawa, I didn't know anyone in that room.

I looked around while sitting down. I thought Karuizawa would carp Ibuki as soon as she saw her. But they just sat far from the group silently.

"Well, if we are all together, what if we do an introduction?" Honami said. She was acting like a leader, as I expected from her.

But please, Honami. I wanted no more introduction. Until this day, I still woke up frightened at night after dreaming of my introduction on the first day of school.

"Useless. There is no need to introduce yourself like elementary students. " Machida from class A said with a grumpy face, his friend nodded in agreement.

Wow, I thought I find my new friend.

"Hm. But the school tells us what to do, doesn't it? What if there is a CCTV in this room observing us? And what if your action causes us damage?" Honami pointed out. But then, she saw my eyes.

"Oh. but if you said so, I think we don't need to introduce though. " She changed his word immediately, causing everyone in that room to look at her with confusion.

Of course, except me.

Ayanolucky, while we were dating, I told her about my disaster introduction. She must be remembered.

Ah, Honami was the best ex-girlfriend I ever had. Of course, since she was the only one.

"So what about jumping into the discussion? I think we should choose the moderator for comfortable in this test, what do you think?" Honami suggested. "Anyone volunteer?"

No one raised their hand. So Honami announced she would be the moderator.

"I want to ask you something. I will assume that you all aren't VIPs. The result A is the best result for all of us, right?"

"Sure. It's a win-win situation. " Karuizawa replied immediately.

Yukimura and Manabe, a girl from class C, said in the same way. I decided to play along with them. There was no use in acting too outstanding. Horikita recommended I flow with the atmosphere.

Since you are a hiding genius. I show you know it. But the best way for VIPs is to wait for the situation. Until you were sure it will be good for the class, don't let anyone know your identity.

Actually, I didn't know. But I learned that there was no use to fix her misunderstanding. So I gave up.

What I could guess from Honami's move as she was trying to find the VIP. Honami was one of the best students in our year. She must have an unexpected plan to find out.

This morning, I donated the money to a charity organization for wild lives. I hoped it would give me enough Poonya to walk through this test,

"Very well. So I think we should say the truth now. I know the most efficient way to find the VIP." Honami said while looking around.

"Who is the VIP, Raise your hand!"

I raised her hand immediately. Oh, what a genius plan---my ass.

I opened my mouth widely, didn't expect she would use this idiot plan. Yukimura glared at me and whispered.

"Ayanokouji. Is your ex always crazy like this?"

"I don't think so. If it's about the friendship stuff, she will act creepy. "

Honami frowned and stood up.

"Geez! I know why they call us the classroom of the elite! You all can bear my genius plan! We need a plan B!"

She walked straight to Doc. He flinched when Ichinose extended her face to him without any sign.

"Hey, Are you Sotomura-Kun?" Honami asked with the sweetest voice I ever hear.

"Y--Yes, sir. " Doc said trembling, his face turned red.

"Sotomura-Kun, What is your first name?"

"H--Hideo, sir."

Honami smiled with the smile that can make the berlin wall destroy itself. She grabbed Doc's hand.

"Hideo-Kun. Are you a VIP?"

Doc shook his head ver hardly. He tried to say something, but it wasn't come out of his mouth.

My ex nodded and released Doc's hand. "Thank you, Hideo-Kun."

"Argh!!!" Doc screamed. "3-D girl call me name! Ah!!! I'm burned!"

I and other men in that room lost the color from our faces. Her plan B was more dangerous than plan A!

With that sweet sound from a cute girl, asking by referred us with our first name. No man could lie in front of her.

Although you lied with your words. Your action would show all of it.

Especially, for the virgin like us.

I knew the power of this forbidden magic very well. Kushida used it all the time. But Honami was probably better than her.

Honami turned her goal to Yukimura who trembling. But his face told me, he wouldn't give us to any girl.

"So you are Yukimura-Kun?" Honami said. "I heard you are very smart! Your first name is Teruhiko, right?"

Being complimented by the cute girl, Yukimura almost crowned to the floor and begged his heart to her. But he could hold himself.

"Don't worry. Ayanokouji. " He said with me. "I hate my first name, no matter how she calls me---"

"Teruhiko-Kun. Are you a VIP?"

"Um. My mother gives me this name, how can I hate it?" Then, he shook his head. "No, I'm not."

"Hm. Is that so?"

Honami glared at me. I knew it right now. I was her new pray.

"Don't hate me, Kiyotaka-Kun. It's not something personal. " She smiled sweetly. "Kiyotaka-Kun---"

Argh! My simp gland was exploding. No. Remember what Lord Buddha said!

Anidja Vatta Sankara. The body isn't stable.

No matter how she looks like now. In fifty years, she will become an old hag with the flabby booby. She won't be beautiful like this forever. Nothing that I should excite about.

"Mo, Kiyotaka-Kun. Can't you tell me, you are a VIP, or not?"

"I'm not!"

Ah, this was the end. My excited face would show her everything. She would know I was the VIP and our class would lose. Horikita would kill me! Maybe Matsushita would make me become an idiot kid like Koenji!

"Ok. Next one."

Honami left me as nothing happen.

Hm. She couldn't guess?

"You are awesome, Kiyotaka-Dono!" Doc praised me.

"Yeah, although a cute girl is standing in front of you. Your face didn't change!" Yukimura said happily.

Wait.

Oh, I see.

I forgot I couldn't move my face at all.

A--Ayanolucky!

Honami released me and found a new pray. But then Machida spoke out.

"Are you sure finding the VIP is the best way for all of us?"

Honami raised her eyebrows and turned to him slowly.

"What do you mean?"

"If someone betrayed us, all of us will lose, right? " Machida said. "There is another way that we could make sure everyone will win this game. Not only in our group. But every group in this test."

Yukimura extended his body forward with interest.

"What is it?" He asked.

Machida grinned and opened his mouth.

...

"Stop finding the VIP and do nothing until the test ended?" Kanzaki Ryuji repeated his opponent's words unbelievably.

Not only him, but half of the Dragon group also didn't believe what Katsuragi Kohei said.

"What do you mean, Katsuragi-Kun?" Hirata asked.

"I mean what I said. " Katsuragi replied. "We know each class has the same number of VIPs. Because the school wants us to get the equal chance to get the point."

He looked around to make sure every dragon became silent.

"Now, what if we used this condition to pass the test without hurting each other. If all groups could end the test with the result A, every class will get equal personal points."

"But it's almost impossible, Katsuragi-Kun. If the VIP revealed himself, there is a chance for someone to betray. " Horikita Suzune pointed out.

"You're right. " Katsuragi admitted. "But don't forget. If we ended with result B, every class will gain 150,000 points. No one will lose in this game. And we can reach it most stably, keep silent until we finished the test. If we don't answer in the end, we will get the result B with no doubt."

Everyone thought with Katsuragi's words. His offer was the most stable way like he said. Even someone broke the promise and answered in the end. If other people didn't answer, they still got the result B.

However, the leader of each class didn't answer immediately.

Dragon group had the representative of each class, the decision, and negotiation in this room could be considered as the decision of each class.

They couldn't rush.

But while Kanzaki, Horikita, Hirata was thinking. A man who sitting his leg crossed smiled without any stress, Ryuen Kakeru seemed to be not worried at all.

"Um. I think Katsuragi-Kun's offer is the best way. " Kushida Kikyo said. "I don't want to hurt my friend's feeling though."

"I agreed with you. " Hirata nodded. He was a peace-lover, this was expected from him.

"I don't agree. " But Horikita thought differently from her classmate.

"This strategy gives the profit to no one but class A. In the end, there won't be any change in the class's competition but you can keep your distance from us."

Katsuragi nodded softly. "I can't deny it. And that's the reason why I will keep playing like this."

"So you decided not to join every activity from now?" Horikita asked.

"Of course, and we won't answer in the end too. " Katsuragi insisted.

Although this looked like an offer, Katsuragi didn't need other classes' cooperation to finish the test in the way he want.

If his class didn't answer, although they can find the VIP, the result will still be B.

He took advantage of this werewolf game.

"Oi, it's no good. " Kanzaki said with a grumpy face. "If you didn't participate with us, we can just ignore you and guess the right answer without you."

"I'm sure you will, but remember, there are only 8.3 percents that you will guess the VIP as a betrayal. I think if you guess without enough information. It will damage your class."

Kanzaki couldn't reply to anything.

Suddenly, Ryuen spread his laugh out loud.

"Kukukuku!"

"What is funny, Ryuen?" Kanzaki asked with anger. He thought Ryuen was flouting him.

"I just realize how unfair this school is, Kuku. They give Katsuragi and Sakayanagi to class A and give me to class C, Kuku."

He pretended to rub his tears.

"If they want to be fair, move Suzunue, Ichinose, Kushida, Kanzaki to class A too. And then our class will be more equal."

...

The Hare group discussion bogged down after the hot conversation between Honami and class A finished.

Class A insisted to stick with their strategy. Therefore, Honami couldn't seduce them.

I looked at Yukimura and Doc. They didn't show the sign to do anything, so I decided to keep silent.

Maybe because no one said something, Manabe from class C turned her face to Karuizawa who sat on the corner, playing her phone.

"Hey, Are you Karuizawa-San? I want to ask you something. " Manabe said.

Karuizawa flinched and looked at Manabe as a dog that looked at the stranger. "Ask what?"

"If I didn't misunderstand, you did something with a girl named Rika before the summer vacation, right?"

"Heh? Who is Rika? I don't know her."

"How can you forget her!? Rika is the cute girl with glasses and has hair that looks like the stuff steam bun! And she is so cute as a little rabbit---Hehe---Rika-chan---"

Manabe smiled fan spellbound, her saliva flew down to the shin. Her friend took her hand.

"Calm down. Shiho-Chan. Rika-Chan isn't here!"

Manabe rubbed her mouth and nodded. "However, that girl told me that you bullied her. You bounced her out of the line at the cafeteria, didn't you?"

"What? No, I never met someone like her!" Karuizawa denied but according to her high pitch voice, I was sure she remembered it immediately.

"But Rika told me that she was bounced by Karuizawa-San from class D. Alright, so let me take your picture, so I will ask Rika later."

Without waiting for Karuizawa's permission. She took her phone off and turned the camera to Karuizawa.

Karuizawa opened her eyes wide and warded it off. Manabe's telephone fell off her hand. Manabe exclaimed and grabbed it from the floor.

She turned her glare to Karuizawa.

"You! What if it broke?"

"You can ask the school for a new one though!"

"But there is an important picture on this phone! "

The atmosphere grew worst when Manabe's friend walked toward Karuizawa as intimidate.

Doc and Yukimura looked another way. Yukimura argued with Karuizawa when we were on the inhabitant island. When Karuizawa seemed to be the wrong one, he wouldn't be on Karuizawa's side.

I sighed and walked to Honami who also looked at the situation considering.

"Honami. Don't you step in and stop them?" I asked her.

"I should, Kiyotaka-Kun. But I'm not their friend, so I don't know if they will listen to me."

Manabe and Karuizawa seemed to be the stubborn people anyway. Although this time, Karuizawa seemed to be weaker than usual though.

"Come on, let me take your picture. Or are you fear?" Manabe said.

"I told you I'm not..."

Manabe turned to Ibuki who didn't participate in the situation at all.

"Ibuki-San. Help me take her picture!" Maybe she thought if Ibuki helped her, Karuizawa would retreat.

But Ibuki didn't care about them at all.

"Ridiculous. " She said.

"What did you say?"

"I said ridiculous. I don't think the girl who wears the teddy bear panties can bully anyone thought." Ibuki didn't think like that, but she just wanted to cut it off.

Karuizawa blushed immediately.

"Where have you heard from!?" She screamed. "I wear only g-string and lace panties! Black lace!"

Karuizawa glared at me for a second as saying "You better say nothing."

"I hold it in my hand. I see that sweet teddy bear with my eyes. " Ibuki said.

"Hey. The people's personality wasn't about their panties! Rika-Chan wears a bikini as her panties but she's shy as hell! Although it's very cute!" Manabe said.

"And what kind of panties do you wear? A diaper?" Ibuki sarcastic her.

"I wear thongs!"

"I wear black lace too! I didn't know Karuizawa-San has the same taste as me!" Honami said.

The girls kept arguing about their panties without noticing us, the boy.

Our face was red as an apple. Doc almost bleeds to death. Today our imagination was too eccentric.

"Mo! Machida-Kun! Please stop them from taking my picture!" Karuizawa walked to Machida's side and grabbed his arm. He flinched and tried to calm himself down.

"M--Manabe-San. Taking another one's picture without permission is bad--Don't touch me---I beg you to stop." His voice sounded trembling.

"What? It's not Machida-Kun's business!"

Manabe was going to continue her controversy but it was Karuizawa's luck. The bell rang as telling us our meeting was ended.

Karuizawa walked out of the room immediately. She didn't forget to step on Manabe's foot, pretending to be an accident.

Manabe and her friends were very angry. They followed Karuizawa out of the room with anger. Ibuki was the next one who walked out.
