Part 8

It was Friday evening, the day before the exam, and Sakayanagi had gone to the Karaoke parlor to make preparations for it.

Whats the situation?

Kamuro and Hashimoto were present, along with Kit, for a total of four people.

It seems that everything was exposed today. Apparently, Horikita-san caught wind of the plan and exposed the fact that I was collaborating with Yamauchi-kun to the rest of their class. I wonder how the information got leaked?

Sakayanagi leisurely carried a french fry into her mouth.

She intently looked upon her classmates before one of them finally spoke up.

Sakayanagi, the leak came from Karuizawa. Like I told you before, if you wanted to make sure Ayanokji got expelled, it wouldve been better to avoid pulling Karuizawa into Yamauchis group.

Hashimoto Masayoshi. He was one of Sakayanagis closest associates, and he was someone who had previously taken notice of Ayanokji all on his own.

Throughout the course of his investigations, he had seen Ayanokji meet with Karuizawa in secret, so he had previously provided input on what she should do this time.

Even though Sakayanagi had agreed to refrain from pulling Karuizawa into the group at first, she had changed her mind yesterday.

As a consequence, her plan had been exposed to the students of Class D.

Didnt I tell you that our first priority was to make sure that Ayanokji didnt realize he was being targeted until the exam was already over?

Yes. I definitely kept your words in mind. Its true that Ayanokji-kun and Karuizawa-san may indeed share an unusual relationship. That is to say, if she was let in on the plan, there was a high chance Ayanokji-kun would hear of it as well.

This was the very reason why Sakayanagi had decided to postpone pulling Karuizawa into Yamauchis group.

She had let Tuesday and Wednesday pass by, purposefully choosing to pull her into the group on Thursday.

Then, she stepped back and waited to see what would happen next. Based on what had taken place today, it was quite likely that she had leaked the information to Ayanokji.

You messed up, didnt you, Sakayanagi?

The one who had asked this was none other than Kamuro, who had been silently listening to the conversation.

Hashimoto spoke up too, offering an analysis on why Sakayanagi had made such a simple mistake.

Karuizawa is one of the most influential girls in her class. If we had managed to pull her into the group, it wouldve pretty much guaranteed Ayanokjis expulsion. Forget twenty votes, its possible wed have gotten around thirty. You let the greed get to you.

I was well aware theyd carry out a class trial. It was just a matter of time.

But, if things hadnt come to light, Yamauchi mightve had a way out too.

Having heard each of their opinions, Sakayanagi couldnt help but feel amused.

Should it know that its become someones prey, even a herbivore will try to fight for its life if it comes down to it. But, I find thats exactly what makes it so interesting. Dont you want to see what hell do in this time he has left? How hell struggle to stay afloat?

You deliberately let Karuizawa leak the information because of that?

I was also able to confirm that your information about Karuizawa and Ayanokji was accurate.

But Ayanokouji went to Horikita about it, who then revealed everything to the rest of the class. It made it hard to tell whatll happen next. Considering that Yamauchi wont be expelled because of our praise votes, theres still no way Ayanokjill be expelled anymore. I have no idea whos gonna be expelled at this point.

When Hashimoto finished, Kamuro spoke up as well.

Wasnt it also a mistake to make contracts with the ones who agreed to vote for Ayanokji without getting anything in writing? How many people are still gonna vote for him after what happened today?

Thered be a dramatic decrease in the number of censure votes Ayanokji would be getting, while the number for Yamauchi would only go up.

However, Yamauchi would be getting 20 votes from Class A to escape this predicament.

In which case, itd be hard to guess whod end up with the most votes against them.

Having heard Hashimoto and Kamuros analysis of the situation, Sakayanagi grinned.

To Sakayanagi, the outcome of all of this was obvious.

Kamuro, Hashimoto, and Yamauchi simply couldnt see it yet.

She was reminded of the reason why she had done this in the first place.

Sakayanagi pulled out her cell phone and turned off the power.

After all, shed receive an incessant, endless number of calls and messages from Yamauchi if she kept it on.

Class A had a lot of praise votes to use during this exam.

Yamauchi probably couldnt help but feel worried about whether or not they were really going to use them on him.

It seems theres something I had forgotten to tell everybody, a very important story concerning Yamauchi-kun.

With that, Sakayanagi began to tell them about the encounter that she had oh so carelessly forgotten to mention.
