"Why do you say that?"
Without answering immediately, Wu Yi asked in return.
The eyes of both parties met in the air, and Ibuki Mio did not dodge, but answered every word.
"Although I hate Ryuen, I also know that he is not the kind of person who would get himself into trouble just by forming a team to take an exam on an uninhabited island. If he dropped out of school, it could only be because he was targeted by others."
"But why must it be me?" Wu Yi continued to shrug, "Maybe he got in trouble with some other big boss and got killed?"
"It couldn't be anyone else."
"Ok?"
"It couldn't be anyone else."
Ibuki Mio repeated it seriously.
"It could only be you. That night when we returned to the cruise ship, that idiot Ishizaki came to me and said that he couldn't contact Ryuen. I also tried to contact him, but failed."
"He's shutting himself in. Besides, he's already dropped out of school, what else can he say to you?"
Wu Yi never minds telling the truth, and hiding things has never been his style.
But this time, he actually had some expectations for Ibuki Mio's intelligence.
"No, he's not autistic, nor does he not want to contact us. It's that he can no longer contact us."
Ibuki Mio continued to stare closely into Wu Yi's eyes.
"I couldn't be sure at first, but this is already the third day since we returned to the cruise ship. I have carefully observed the electricity meter on the cruise ship. Since the first day we returned to the cruise ship, the electricity meter in Long Yuan's room has not moved at all."
"He didn't go out, didn't turn on the air conditioner, and didn't even turn on the lights. Unless he was completely rotten in the room, or... he didn't even come back to the cruise ship."
"You killed him, didn't you?"
When she came to the final conclusion, Ibuki's voice was filled with a calmness and wisdom that even she herself did not expect.
Just like a famous detective who can see through everything, it is a pity that there is only one highlight moment in this life.
I'm so handsome! Yeah!
"Yeah, yeah, I did it."
Wu Yi admitted it without hesitation.
"If you can drive a speedboat to the sea near I2 on the island where we took the test before and go diving, you should be able to find three bags with lead weights tied to them on the seabed, and one of them is his."
"..."
Speechless.
Ibuki Mio was a little speechless because she didn't expect Wu Yi to admit it so readily.
She didn't ask why he wanted to kill Long Yuan, or rather, she had never planned to ask that question from the beginning.
Why kill Long Yuan?
Is there any need to ask? It's obvious!
Just ask——
Does Long Yuan have the ability?
Indeed there is.
Are people disgusting enough?
So disgusting.
To be honest, regarding the bad things Ryuuen had done in the past, Ibuki Mio put herself in his shoes and asked herself, if she were from another class, she would have definitely wanted to kill this stinky cockroach one by one and be done with it once and for all, so that it would not jump out again and disgust people in the future.
"Don't you want to know why I wanted to kill him?" Wu Yi tilted his head.
"……In no mood."
Ibuki Mio did not do as he wished and activated the mouth hardening skill again.
Wu Yi nodded slightly.
"Okay, then I won't say anything."
"?"
"Pfft... Never mind, I'll just tell you."
Seeing the girl's surprised look of "What's wrong with you?", Wu Yi finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"To put it bluntly, Ryuen wanted to kill me, and Nanyun offered him a reward of 20 million if he killed me, so he came to kill me. But I easily killed him. That's it. It's completely in line with the principle of self-defense."
"……Oh."
Ibuki Mio responded a little dazedly.
Wu Yi took a breath and continued.
"However, although I have always looked down on him and hated him, I have to admit that he is indeed the most capable leader in your class. Now that he is here, Ibuki, your class will probably be completely reduced to a pile of loose sand and will never rise again. Have you considered what to do in the future?"
"..."
Still speechless.
Volume 440: Chapter The idea is on the teacher
Day after day, all the students are enjoying this high-quality, condensed and short last summer vacation.
But there is still no way. This year's special summer exam takes longer than in previous years.
In the past, even the most rigorous and difficult class group examination on the uninhabited island for first graders only lasted a week at most.
But this time it lasted for two full weeks, making the already tight summer vacation time for Gaoyu High School students even worse.
If you ask me whether a cruise vacation is enjoyable or not, the answer is definitely yes.
But if you ask me whether it was fun enough, the answer is definitely no.
But there is no way. The summer vacation in Japan is short. You can't have a full two months off like Seres. Even one and a half months is difficult.
The exam lasts two weeks plus one week on the cruise ship, and then we have two or three days off before the exam on the uninhabited island. In the end, we basically rest for two or three days when the cruise ship arrives at the port.
Then, school started in despair.
It was September 1st, the first day of school which also happened to be the first day of the week, commonly known as Black Monday.
Because if school starts on this day, it means that students who have just ended their leisurely summer vacation will need to wear a mask of pain and attend five full days of classes before they can get through the weekend.
Although this condition will improve significantly starting from the second week, the first week is still quite painful.
This is true not only for students, but also for teachers who are responsible for teaching.
So on the first day of school, when the first shot should have been fired to boost morale, Chabashira Sae decided to get up... and stay up late.
The autumn morning sunshine shone into the classroom. When all the students in the class were seated in their respective seats, the female teacher in her usual seductive OL uniform and black stockings walked in from outside, yawning, and came to the podium with brisk steps.
Stand still, clear your throat, lean forward slightly, and support yourself on the table with both hands.
"Then forget the polite words. In the second semester of this school year, the school will still hold some large-scale events that are particularly interesting for the exams. For example, in October, our school will hold the first cultural festival in the history of Higher Education High School, replacing the sports festival of previous years."
Cultural Festival?
Does this school still have this thing?
Upon hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar term, a big question mark popped up in most of the students' heads.
It was similar to Wu Yi's reaction when she heard from Sakayanagi Arisu that a cultural festival was going to be held.
It feels familiar because it is held every year in both elementary and junior high schools, but it feels unfamiliar because after I came to this school, it was not held last year when they were in the first grade.
Well... I originally thought that this school didn't have any so-called cultural festival at all, but now they say they are going to hold one?
And it’s the first time ever?
Is this the only one in this country?
Even though she could see the confusion among the students below, Chabashira Sae did not explain much because she did not know how to explain it.
Chabashira Sae attended Koiku High School for three years, and then taught for almost six or seven years, which means a total of ten years. When she received the notice that a cultural festival was going to be held, she was also confused.
Since I don't know how to explain it, I'd better not explain it and just read it from the script.
"Many foreign guests will be invited to the cultural festival. You will compete with all other classes in the school. The winner will be determined by sales. You can submit an application to the school for any kind of products you want to prepare, but please note that the budget is limited. Please check the tablet in your hands for detailed rules."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the tablet computers in the class rang with a notification tone, indicating that they had received a file message from the school.
【Cultural Festival Overview】
[The school will distribute personal points that can only be used to organize the cultural festival to all students as start-up funds. Each first-year student will receive 5500 points, each second-year student will receive 5000 points, and each third-year student will receive 4500 points. The personal points for the cultural festival can only be used freely within the prescribed range.]
【Those who have made outstanding contributions in student union or community activities can receive additional funding. 】
[Initial expenses and additional funds will not be reflected in the final sales results. If there is any unused funds, they will be recovered after the cultural festival ends. ]
[In the final evaluation, the first to fourth place classes will receive 100 class points, the fifth to eighth place classes will receive 50 class points, and the ninth to twelfth place class points will not change. ]
It's just...pretty concise.
Sitting in the back row of the classroom and looking at the tablet in his hand, Wu Yixin thought that it was rare to see such clear exam rules explained on half a page.
Otherwise, like the previous special exams, the rules are as short as three or four pages and as long as more than ten pages, which makes people dizzy.
Moreover, he talks about dropping out of school every other sentence, just like the old people of Showa era, who always say "people without value have no right to live".
People with no value are eating your rice, right?
It's good like this, there's competition and it's fun, there's no need to make it a fight to the death.
No poke, no poke~
President Wu glanced at the contents on the tablet in his hand and nodded happily to show his satisfaction.
“It feels like a proper cultural festival~”
Yukinoshita Haruno, who was sitting next to her, couldn't help but sigh as well.
Chabashira Sae continued on the podium.
"In addition, the school will provide venues for the cultural festival projects. For example, if it is in a shopping mall, the shops opened next to the main entrance will definitely attract more customers, but the rent will also be more expensive."
This time, before he could finish his words, the tablet beeped with a new message.
Unlike the previous document, this time it was just a picture with a floor plan of the building drawn on it. For example, the rent for the store "Main Gate 1", which was the closest to the main gate, was as high as points.
If we assume that there are 40 students in a class and each student has 5,000 points of starting capital, then the total starting capital for each second-grade class is 200,000 points.
Spend one twentieth of the money to rent the venue... It’s not too expensive, it’s still within an acceptable price range.
Emmmmm~
"Please note that the location of the store may overlap with other classes' wishes."
Chabashira Sae spoke again.
"For example, if our class and the neighboring class B both want to rent the store at the main entrance 1, there will be bidding, and the highest bidder will win."
It's not first come first served, but the highest bidder wins...
To be honest, this is not a problem for Wu Yi at all. He can just use all 200,000 cultural festival points to bid for the venue, and then use his own money to approve an additional 1 million as examination funds.
After all, it only says that the special points for the cultural festival can only be used in the preparation of the cultural festival, but it does not say that the special points for the cultural festival can only be used when preparing for the cultural festival.
But that is what rich landlords do. It is a mindless operation of using money to kill the opponent, which is really not a good idea.
In contrast——
Looking at the mature and attractive female teacher on the podium, a bold idea quietly formed in Wu Yi's mind.
Volume 441: Chapter Dating Chabashira
The first day of school was torturous, but not that torturous.
The main problem is that I can't sleep freely until I wake up naturally like I did during the summer vacation, and then open my eyes and continue to lie down and look at my phone. I have to lie down until I can't hold my urine anymore, and then I get up. I take my time to wash and get dressed. Even breakfast takes me twenty minutes to see which store to look at today. My whole state is as relaxed as a wild horse.
But when the class really starts, it is not so torturous. At least for students who listen carefully, a 40-minute class is not too long.
Just like that, as the first day of school came to an end, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
After school, except for students who had to participate in club activities, most others chose to stay in the classroom.
