...

And the other side.

Since most of the lunch break had passed, the students returned to the classroom after finishing their meal.

And here is the classroom of Class A.

Everyone is used to the class being divided into three groups.

However, despite being a member of the three factions, Oreki-san seems to be inactive, so his supporters often cannot find him.

"Oreki-san isn't here—" one student said.

This student is looking for traces of Oreki-san.

It should be said that in the new month, the Sakayanagi faction and the Katsuragi faction have become more obvious.

So he has been asked several times whether he wants to join the Sakayanagi faction or the Katsuragi faction.

Hashimoto, for example, was originally in a Trilateral faction, but under this situation, he decided to withdraw from Katsuragi's group, and then officially joined the Sakayanagi faction.

It seems that he is more optimistic about Sakayanagi Arisu.

But this is not shameful to the Katsuragi faction.

at the same time.

"Congratulations, Katsuragi-san!"

The people of the Katsuragi faction congratulated Katsuragi Kohei.

Katsuragi-san went to the student council to report at the end of the second period in the morning.

Although it is a position that can be bought with money, it is still very helpful for Class A to be able to officially join the job and become a member of the student council. 

Everyone knows the rules of the school, knows that the student council has great power, and some important news can be known in advance.

It's a harmless thing.

So it's a scene that adds to the brilliance.

And he got the position of secretary of the student council. It is said that the current student council president Horikita Manabu also started as a secretary when he joined the student council.

Although the probability is a bit small, you can still expect something, right?

The students in Class A were inspired.

The Sakayanagi faction students had long faces.

Among them, as the second-ranking member of the Sakayanagi faction, Masumi Kamuro had a straight face.

"…" Masumi Kamuro.

But she wasn't jealous of Katsuragi's outstanding performance.

She's just doing her job.

Kamuro-san is now sitting in her seat, watching the scene in the class. Sakayanagi often arranges for her to do things to obtain information.

So now if she sits quietly, listens, and watches, she is also collecting information.

But she was a little curious.

The class is talking about two things now.

1. Katsuragi-san paid 1 million to Oreki-san to obtain a position in the student council and then reported success.

This is a good thing for Class A, but for the Sakayanagi faction, their side's momentum has weakened.

2. In the morning, the whole class heard that Oreki Houtaro was being kept by someone, and the other party transferred 1 million.

And she felt that the lunch break was almost over, and it was a bit strange that Sakayanagi didn't let her explore the second point.

Because doesn't this girl care about Oreki?

Now that he is being taken care of, doesn't she care?

Or is she just a heartless woman?

As for today, the homeroom teacher, Mr. Mashima, actually pointed out that there will be a written test on the 24th.

Kamuro-san has already received tutoring to fill in the gaps. Even if the whole class gets 100 points, the passing score will only be 50 points.

She can get a score of 60, so it is very safe.

Not worried at all.

But things have changed in the class now.

"Katsugi-san, you said that the student council president invited me to go to the student council office after school," Sakayanagi said.

Sakayanagi Arisu was sitting in her seat, holding a book.

And Katsuragi Kohei walked over.

"I just received the message from the president." Katsuragi nodded. "Because our Class A performed well, even though he originally stopped allowing first-year students to join the student council, a decision was made to make a special exception and then give you the identity of an accountant by name."

Katsuragi said.

"??"

The members of the Sakayanagi faction immediately paid attention.

Among them, Masayoshi Hashimoto, who withdrew from the Katsuragi faction and came to the Sakayanagi faction, breathed a sigh of relief.

So, isn't Sakayanagi also very good?

This also shows that he did not choose the wrong route.

...

[So, you don't have any new instructions]

Kamuro Masumi watched all this silently, then took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Sakayanagi Arisu.

[Instructions? That's right. ]

Arisu Sakayanagi opened her group.

This is a group established by Hashimoto, a member of the Sakayanagi faction, who then transferred the identity of the group leader to her.

Sakayanagi Arisu contacted a person from the Sakayanagi faction.

The name is Hayato Kito.

He is similar to Kamuro Masumi. He seems to be a person who is not very good at or does not like to communicate with others, but he is also a sensitive person.

He was one of the first people to join the Sakayanagi faction.

Belongs to core members.

After Sakayanagi contacted this classmate, she gave him the identity of the accountant that Katsuragi-san had just mentioned given to her by the president.

Let him report to the student council after school in the afternoon.

[Are you satisfied with this? Kamuro-san, it's a pity. Even if you are interested in the identity of the accountant, I can't let you go yet. I have limited mobility and I still need you. ]

oh.

That's it.

So is she taken seriously?

Because Sakayanagi still needed her, she didn't give her the position of accountant.

So in Sakayanagi's mind, she is above Kito-san.

it's not right.

How could she seem to be competing for favor?

She's not a pet.

"…" Kamuro.

"No, I mean, don't you need me to follow Houtarou Oreki today?"

"He received that kind of message in the morning. So is it possible to take advantage of his lunch break to have a private meeting with the woman who wants to keep him?"

Kamuro quickly pointed out what she meant.

It wasn't the student council position she cared about... okay. She kind of wanted it, but she also knew that she didn't have the strength.

At the same time, she also has an unexplainable flaw. If the perceptive student council president discovers it... she may be expelled from school.

So Kamuro-san resists going to the student council.

[Tracking? no need. Because it's obvious where Oreki-san is going. ]

But Sakayanagi-san's message came quickly.

[The class evaluation scores of our class came out very early, and Katsuragi-kun went to report after the second period. ]

[And the student council president should have already known the results of our class. So if the president wants to reward our class for outstanding performance, then Katsuragi-kun will report it and he will give it directly. ]

[So, Katsuragi-kun's notification of the accountant's position happened during the lunch break. ]

[What do you think happened during this time? ] The little princess of the Sakayanagi faction typed calmly.

"…" Kamuro.

In other words, do you think Oreki got this?

Eh!

So, did Oreki do something without her knowing?

While Kamuro was thinking, Sakayanagi Arisu's message came over again.

[And Oreki-san went to the student council specifically to explain that he wanted to obtain information about the person who supported him. ]

[And since he needs to obtain the other party's information, it means he doesn't know that person, right? ]

[Since it is a stranger, it may be a senior, a teacher, or even the student council president or other faculty members. ]

[After all, he made a huge splash during the part-time work rights incident, so many people in the school should be paying attention to him. ]

[And if it is the latter, then if they will pay such a huge sum of money in advance, it means that what you have to do is very troublesome. ]

[For Oreki-san, I'm afraid it's troublesome. ]by Sakayanagi Arisu.

"…" Kamuro.

In other words, you don't think this is a guarantee.

Is it more like being caught up with some troublesome person?

That's bad.

No wonder Oreki-san hasn't come back yet.

I see.

Kamuro-san nodded.

She glanced at Oreki Houtarou's table, but it was still empty.

Oreki-san hasn't come back yet.
