A large man runs through the forest in poor visibility. The big man's goal is the camp where Sakurako Tsubaki, Hachi, Takuya Yagami and Utomiya Riku are.

He had been instructed by Sakayanagi and he was tasked with unmasking the person who was in charge of that plan. When Kitou runs and tries to keep the camp in sight, he finds a figure in front of his eyes. The man was standing on the road as if he was blocking the way, looking towards Kitou. Kitou did not recognize the face of that person, but immediately recognized that he was not an ally. He tried to change course while there was distance, but when he saw it, the other man also began to walk. Recognizing that he is an enemy, Kitou stops running and turns to the man.

"What do you want on these roads?"

Utomiya asks the question in a severe tone of voice, forgetting to use honorifics even though he is dealing with an older student.

"I think you are Kitou Hayato-senpai ......, a second year student from class A"

He says it calmly and with a mixture of honorifics. He was originally alone, so he remembered Kito, but he was removed from the list because he joined the group. However, telling him that he knew from the beginning can be suspicious, so he pretended not to notice.

"I'm in a hurry now"

With a new rejection, Kitou tries to dodge Utomiya.However; Utomiya grabbed him by the shoulder and stopped him.

"What is it"

Kitou, who was annoyed by his behavior, looked at him with contempt, but Utomiya also just shot him a sharp look.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not going to let you pass from here."

"What?"

Utomiya's fist approaches in front of Kitou, who frowns suspiciously, Kitou calmly avoids the fist and keeps his distance.

"What are you doing?"

And then Utomiya reached out, and grabbed him by the neck.

"I'll tell you. I'm not going to let you pass from here."

"What is your name?"

"1st year of class C, Utomiya"

Utomiya, One of the objectives of the investigation, ordered by Sakayanagi At the stage where he was trapped here, he wasn't the main target And Utomiya also guessed that Kitou had received instructions from someone to come here.

"Who ordered you to come here?"

He tried to ask the name, but Kitou gave no sign of answering.

"I have no intention of showing any compassion even with a senpai."

At these words, Kitou's eyes shine brightly and his thick arms point to Utomiya's neck. Unhurriedly, Utomiya kept his distance and escaped Kitou's attack without difficulty. However, due to his quick evasive action, the walkie-talkie in his pocket falls at Kitou's feet.

"Oh crap!"

He rushed closer, but Kitou's stance prevented him from launching himself without a fight. The dazzling stares continued for a while, but then the silence was broken by another.

"Utomiya-kun? What are you doing?"

Tsubaki's voice leaks from the walkie-talkie rolling under his feet.

"Shit..."

Utomiya clicks his tongue and looks at the walkie-talkie he has dropped.

"Didn't you follow my instructions?

Tsubaki continues to do so, though she doubts she won't get an answer. Utomiya was looking for an opportunity to pounce, but Kitou signaled him to calm down with one of his hands.

He grabbed the walkie-talkie at his feet and gently tossed it towards Utomiya.

"What are you going to do ...?"

Utomiya asks as if the fury that had been drained from him by his unexpected action.

"The objective has been reached"

When there was no longer a need to fight, Kitou collects his luggage and turns around. He heard Tsubaki's voice over the walkie-talkie and decided that she was the commander. Kitou's back has started to drift away, leaving him defenseless.

"If you can hear Utomiya-kun, calm down. It's a bad idea to fight Kitou-senpai here now."

Kitou disappeared while staring at the walkie-talkie for a while without answering. "... It's me. "

When he was alone, Utomiya answered with a walkie-talkie.

"Are you safe? What about Kitou-senpai?

"He went right in front of me .."

"Why would you do something like that? If you do something like that, Utomiya will also be expelled. Right? Or were you just trying to keep second year students away from me?"

"No, it's not. ...... I'm sorry. If the strategy didn't work out this time, there was no need to give unnecessary information to a potential opponent. I wanted to prevent them from getting close to Tsubaki."

"I can't blame you for what happened, but is that what you thought, Utomiya-kun?" After a short silence, says Utomiya.

"No. ...... Yes, yes. I moved on my own."

Perhaps it was an annoying reply, Tsubaki was silent for a moment behind the communication device. "So. If you can move for now, come back."

"Very good."

After finishing the communication, Utomiya looks at the tablet. Then when he picks up the walkie-talkie again, He change the code and communication begins.

"I've gotten rid of that 2nd year weirdo. I should be pleased to see that Tsubaki is in charge."

"As expected, Utomiya-kun"

"So, how was Tsubaki's plan?"

"It failed as expected. Even though Ayanokouji-senpai didn't bother to give advance notice, I'm sure it was an old-fashioned strategy that was never going to be successful from the beginning."

"I have to go." Without inadvertently prolonging the matter, Utomiya turns off the walkie-talkie
