After returning to the forest, Horikita Suzune walked ahead briskly, as if to completely distance herself from the unpleasant laughter and cheers from afar.
"Sigh..."
It wasn't until she couldn't hear the cheers and laughter from afar anymore that Horikita Suzune stopped her steps slightly and let out a sigh.
"Class C is really not worth mentioning."
Facing Hori, who was quietly following behind, Horikita Suzune expressed her merciless evaluation.
"Such opponents, even the thought of overcoming them feels meaningless."
The girl who targeted the above segment uttered her thoughts.
It seems that Horikita Suzune has completely lost her fighting spirit against Class C.
Of course, Horikita Suzune is not foolish.
Seeing the conversation between Hori and Ryuen Kakeru on the beach just now, even a fool like her can understand that there must be a reason why Ryuen Kakeru would recklessly squander his points regardless of the quantity.
However, even if it wasn't a choice made out of self-indulgence but for some reason, it still couldn't escape one fact.
"Those guys squandered their points, and that's something that can't be changed."
That's it.
Regardless of Ryuen's thoughts, from his attitude, one thing can be certain at least.
That is, in this special exam, he and Class C will not be opponents of Class D.
In that case, everything else is irrelevant.
"No matter what happens afterward, they have forfeited in this special exam."
Horikita Suzune perfectly grasped the essence of the matter.
And that's the truth.
Regardless of whether Ryuen Kakeru wants to play slowly later or has goals beyond points, that's all for later.
Now, the special exam is the main focus, and Horikita Suzune won't consider things that far ahead.
"Although, I still can't understand their actions."
In the end, Horikita Suzune gave a summary that perfectly fits her style.
Hori still didn't say anything.
Recalling the various things seen on the beach, Hori couldn't find any words to refute Horikita Suzune, right?
Currently, what everyone needs to focus on is the first special exam since the start of the school year.
As the first exam that could significantly change the gap between the four classes, every class is striving hard.
And Class C has completely given up on this special exam.
Squandering precious points on entertainment, driving classmates out of the campsite, disregarding the effects of attendance rules and absence rules, and even ignoring the restrictions brought by violations such as environmental pollution, as long as they can enjoy the summer vacation to the fullest.
This is a strategy that only Ryuen Kakeru, who doesn't care about the quantity of class points, can adopt.
This kind of disregard for rules, extremely free style of behavior, truly fits Ryuen Kakeru's style, who is willing to use any means to achieve his goals, even if it means fabricating accusations.
"That guy really intends to completely trample on the 'rules'."
This is something even Hori couldn't achieve.
Since entering Advanced Nurturing High School, Hori has been following the rules, not stepping out of the framework called "rules."
Even in this special exam, Hori followed the rules and gave instructions and actions to the students in the class.
It's not because Hori lacks the ability and courage to break the rules, but because Hori understands.
Once he deviates from the rules, he will become a terrifying person.
If that happens, Advanced Nurturing High School will completely become hell.
So, Hori won't break the rules, but will follow them.
Otherwise, Hori wouldn't have come to Advanced Nurturing High School and continued to stay in that clan, with plenty of opportunities to challenge the rules.
However, at that time, the rules Hori challenged would not be mere school rules, but the laws and regulations of the entire society, the country, and even the world.
"Has he really carried out what I abandoned to the end?"
Hori smirked.
"Ryuen Kakeru, indeed, is a very interesting person."
These thoughts, Horikita Suzune didn't know.
Horikita Suzune just looked in the direction of Class C's campsite and said this.
"With their attitude of squandering points, they don't need seven days, and the points will be completely depleted. How will they continue to survive on this island then?"
This is a simple question.
"Just drop out due to absenteeism." While thinking about his own affairs, Hori answered like this, "Like Kouenji, casually make up a reason, such as feeling unwell, voluntarily withdraw from this special exam, then they can return to the ship together and continue to enjoy the summer vacation."
After all, there are plenty of entertainment facilities on the ship, and there is no shortage of things to enjoy on vacation.
When the points are completely depleted, Ryuen Kakeru will definitely let the students in the class do the same, right?
Horikita Suzune also seemed to understand this matter.
"What is that man thinking?"
Although she had excluded Class C from the category of enemies, Horikita Suzune seemed unable to understand Ryuen Kakeru's actions.
"If the goal is to target the above segment, then the class points should be genuinely increased, and achievements worthy of harvest should be obtained in this special exam. What is the meaning of abandoning the opportunity that was hard to come by?"
With an unexpectedly rigorous personality, down-to-earth, absolutely not indulging in fantasies, but absolutely idealistic, Horikita Suzune couldn't understand Ryuen Kakeru's thoughts, right?
But it's also because of this that Horikita Suzune is not Ryuen Kakeru's opponent.
A dignified attitude is good, but in the face of real cunning, this attitude will only let oneself be played between applause.
Ryuen Kakeru should have seen through the nature of Horikita Suzune, so he didn't regard Horikita Suzune as an opponent, but as an object to conquer, submit to, and even play with, right?
Naturally, Horikita Suzune also looks down on Ryuen Kakeru.
For someone who challenges rules, behaves unrestrainedly, and is both rude and frivolous, a person as meticulous as Horikita Suzune will not have a good impression.
In short, these two people are not on the same page.
Ryuen Kakeru looks down on Horikita Suzune.
Because Horikita Suzune is both naive and shallow.
Horikita Suzune looks down on Ryuen Kakeru.
Because Ryuen Kakeru is both rude and meaningless.
These two people are destined to only play with each other.
"Why is the class of such a person above us?"
Horikita Suzune sighed, then, as if she didn't want to pay attention to Class C anymore, she turned her head and walked toward the campsite where Class D was located.
Hori, on the other hand, quietly followed, but he had been looking back at the direction of Class C's campsite all along.
Different from Horikita Suzune.
Hori did not exclude Class C from the category of opponents.
Because...
"Abandoning points does not mean you will give up competition, Ryuen."
Leaving behind such a murmuring, Hori and Horikita Suzune left here together and returned to the campsite of Class D.
