[The Rabbit Group exam has ended. Rabbit Group students do not need to participate in the exam anymore. Please act carefully and do not disturb other students.]
The voice echoing from the broadcast left everyone in the Rabbit Group stunned.
Hamaguchi sat back in his seat, utterly dejected. He hadn't expected that he would choose to end the exam so decisively.
If it hadn't been for his pressure, perhaps Ayanokoji would have still hesitated. Damn it! Who would have known that guy Ayanokoji, with that gloomy face of his, was actually the impulsive type? If he had known, if he had only known, he should have been gentler.
Satonaka had also sent an email, but unfortunately, he was a few seconds slower than Ayanokoji. He had hesitated for a moment before sending, and that very hesitation allowed Ayanokoji to beat him to it. Looking at Miyahara, who was wailing on the desk, and the dejected Hamaguchi, even a fool would know that Ayanokoji had guessed correctly.
"Sigh, I should have just believed what Ayanokoji said."
On the way back, Satonaka complained.
"Treating that guy like an ordinary person is the biggest mistake of all."
Morishita said something inexplicable, then took the elevator back to her room.
As for Ayanokoji, he was pestered and asked how he figured out that Miyahara was the favored person, but the only answer Ayanokoji could give was that he guessed.
That's right, he completely guessed. As for a traitor, there was no such thing. He had originally just picked someone at random, applied some pressure, and used cold reading to judge if the other party was the favored person. But he hadn't expected that Miyahara wouldn't even be able to manage the most basic disguise, so he quickly confirmed that Miyahara was definitely the favored person. The rest was just him wasting a few words to test Hamaguchi's ability.
It was a pity that Hamaguchi disappointed him a bit. His ability stopped there; it could be called decent, but it was still far from excellent and shouldn't count as a threat to Class D. Now, it was time to see the remaining three groups.
Just as Ayanokoji was planning to go back and rest, the broadcast sound played again.
[The sheep group exam has ended. sheep group students do not need to participate in the exam anymore. Please act carefully and do not disturb other students.]
Matsushita had also beautifully ended the favored person exam. Judging by her confident appearance, she seemed to have some leads on the favored person... It seemed that after the favored person for the sheep group was changed, they had provided a supplementary clue note to Matsushita, the holder of the imp card. Perhaps the new clue contained a lot of information about the favored person.
In that case, Matsushita's battle should be considered relatively easy.
In the luxury room on the top floor.
Amane was enjoying a delicious lunch. Although it wasn't quite lunchtime yet, because she had woken up too late and missed breakfast time, she simply combined them into one meal to handle it all at once.
Amane was scrolling through the group chat records on her phone while mechanically repeating the action of opening her mouth.
Naturally, Karuizawa was by her side, holding food and performing the task of feeding her.
After hearing two consecutive broadcast announcements, Amane stopped her movements.
"Are you done eating?"
Karuizawa had just pinched a small piece of chopped fried pork cutlet and popped it into her mouth when she saw Amane stop moving. She quickly took out a tissue, wiped her hands, and then wiped the oil stains from the corners of Amane's mouth until they were perfectly clean.
"With you here, Kei, I'm full just from looking at you. You'll have to trouble yourself to finish off all this remaining food."
Amane deliberately teased Karuizawa.
Karuizawa, who had never heard anyone say such words to her, immediately felt a flush of red appear on her face, which quickly spread to the tips of her ears.
Looking at Karuizawa's flushed little face, Amane always wanted to go up and steal a kiss.
"How annoying, don't say such sappy things... I'm still not quite used to it."
Karuizawa turned her face away, exposing her fair neck.
Now Amane was even more restless. Just as Amane intended to have an extra serving, she saw Karuizawa start shoveling food into her mouth, looking like she had been starving for a long time.
Seemingly sensing Amane's confusion, Karuizawa slowed down her eating speed and spoke somewhat embarrassedly.
"Actually, I was planning to have dinner with you yesterday, Amane, but you never came back, so..."
Karuizawa's answer exceeded Amane's expectations.
In her view, Karuizawa had her own life, so something like eating shouldn't be something she needed to concern herself with, but she hadn't expected that Karuizawa was actually waiting for her to return to eat together.
Amane recalled the last two days; it seemed Karuizawa had only eaten one meal yesterday at noon. No wonder she was this hungry.
"Next time you want to eat together, you can just tell me directly."
Amane gently tapped Karuizawa on the head. Karuizawa cutely held her head with both hands, looking at Amane with a resentful gaze.
"It's just that I was afraid of disturbing you while you were talking about important matters."
"Is anything more important than eating? Kei, you really are an idiot."
"Hey! I was only being kind by waiting for you to... eat... together."
Karuizawa looked at the food Amane held out to her, feeling a bit at a loss.
"What? Don't you like steak? If you want a staple like rice, I can go get some for you, but there's so much meat here, you can get full just from eating meat too."
As Amane said this, she stuffed a small, cut-up piece of steak into Karuizawa's mouth.
Frankly speaking, the steak was a bit cold, and it didn't taste that delicious, but Karuizawa felt that at this moment, there was nothing more delicious than it.
Watching Karuizawa swallow the food, Amane skewered another piece and held it to Karuizawa's lips.
After gradually getting used to it, Karuizawa also started directing Amane on what she wanted to eat, and Amane would satisfy her requests. When feeding her the cream of mushroom soup, she would even gently blow on it first, then lightly touch it with her lips to make sure it wasn't too hot before feeding it to Karuizawa.
Where had Karuizawa ever seen such a situation? But she didn't dare to refuse Amane's kindness, so she could only bite the bullet and finish the soup. By the time she finished being fed the soup by Amane, Karuizawa's face was already so red that anyone looking at it would think, 'That must have been really hot.'
Finally finishing lunch, just when Karuizawa thought she could finally be relieved, she saw Amane reveal a strange smile.
"Time without exams is quite boring. What do you usually do, Kei, during such boring times?"
Amane's inquiry made Karuizawa start to think. Come to think of it, it seemed her life was actually quite boring too.
"If it's a day off, I'll clean up first, then scroll through my phone and chat about gossip with acquaintances, then see if I have plans with anyone to go out in the afternoon. If I don't have enough points, I'll decline using excuses like having a date with Hirata, and that's about it..."
This way of passing time was the normal situation for girls confined in the school with no points. However, this was inevitably a bit too boring. Amane usually played card games and video games with Horikita. Well, if she was really bored, she would play some extremely physically demanding sports. After exercising, she wouldn't feel that bored.
Thinking of this, Amane's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Do you want to play a game with me?"
