Palette Cafe.
Looking at Koenji in the center of the shop, the three walked up to him; actually, it would have been better to find a more secluded place.
Pity.
Koenji's action patterns were unpredictable and hard to grasp; they also didn't know Koenji's contact information, so they could only run according to his rhythm.
"Koenji-kun, would it be convenient to share a table?"
Ichinose greeted with a smile, while Hikigaya and Kanzaki also followed behind her.
Looking at Koenji Rokusuke, who looked elegant with a hand mirror, Kanzaki couldn't help but feel a hint of wariness.
During the deserted island exam.
Koenji suppressed the entire school by himself.
His individual strength was simply like a BUG.
No matter how Koenji did it, such strength was truly impossible to ignore.
To rise to Class A.
Koenji was undoubtedly the existence most worth being wary of.
"Oh la, so the people looking for me are Class B's Angel-girl. What specifically is the matter?"
Koenji was still facing the mirror, not taking the few people seriously at all, nor did he answer Ichinose's question.
This immediately made Hikigaya frown.
Clearly, the surroundings were already full.
Ichinose's reason for coming to share a table was sufficient.
However, Koenji had already made his own judgment, even without any intention of listening to their explanation.
Clearly, there was no tracking; it was impossible for their side to have shown any flaws.
Perhaps.
He just noticed some unusual looks around him,
And Koenji made this judgment?
And he was extremely confident.
Although he already knew on the cruise ship that Koenji's insight was amazing, he didn't expect it to be this powerful.
Perhaps this was the counter-surveillance ability Tsukishiro spoke of?
"Then we'll take it that you agreed."
Without getting a definitive response, the few people defaulted to sitting in front of Koenji, and Ichinose said very frankly:
"Koenji-kun seems to know we would look for you. I personally believe I didn't show any flaws. Might I ask how Koenji-kun discovered us?"
"It's not anything rare."
Koenji's finger twisted the bangs on his head, and a satisfied smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of his mouth:
"I feel that today, compared to usual, more people are able to appreciate my beauty. I don't hate that."
Hikigaya's mouth twitched.
He didn't know if he was satisfied with his looks or satisfied with something else.
However.
Koenji also didn't directly get up and leave; clearly, he also didn't care what purpose they had.
It's just that this rhythm was very annoying.
What you have to say is your business, whether to listen or not is his business.
The initiative was always held in Koenji's hands.
It's just that he was more likely simply being self-centered and didn't consider too many things.
In Koenji's eyes.
Other people might be no different from air.
This style of doing things, which was self-centered to the extreme.
Was truly a headache.
"Since that's the case, Koenji-kun, may I ask."
Ichinose said with some confusion: "You've been training seriously lately, so you're preparing to participate in the Sports Festival, right? You were always obscure before; why have you started putting in effort for the class lately?"
Koenji had already determined they were tracking him, and Ichinose didn't hide that.
"Angel-girl still doesn't understand."
Koenji smiled indifferently:
"Although I've already earned quite a bit from the deserted island exam and the treasure hunt game, now is a time when money is needed. From my standpoint, there's no reason not to participate."
"Does this mean you aren't putting in effort for the class?"
Kanzaki, who was on the side, frowned.
His heart also couldn't help but feel relieved; in that case, there was the possibility of recruiting Koenji.
Although Koenji's personality was somewhat unconventional.
But regardless.
Koenji's extraordinary strength was indeed covetable.
"Naturally."
"Then."
Kanzaki looked at Koenji, his eyes lighting up as he said: "Koenji, if you were to transfer to Class B, how would you feel?"
Currently, Class B possessed a high amount of 37 million personal points.
Helping Koenji transfer classes was not a problem at all.
Although Koenji was somewhat unconventional, from the current perspective, he planned to put in effort for the class in both the deserted island and the Sports Festival.
This was basically not a problem.
As long as Koenji was willing to put in effort for the class, he was undoubtedly a strong reinforcement.
"Impossible."
Only then did Koenji lift his eyelids to glance at them:
"Although I don't care about the class, however, at present, I don't see anything attractive to me from you all."
"Does the so-called attractive part refer to rising to Class A?"
"Correct..."
Koenji was holding the hand mirror.
They originally thought he wouldn't answer, but unexpectedly Koenji actually admitted it directly.
But the implication was.
Currently, Koenji couldn't see any hope of rising to Class A from Class B; after weighing the pros and cons, it was better to stay in Class D.
Or.
There was something in the middle they didn't know, but Koenji clearly had no intention of explaining.
Continuing to emphasize that they definitely had the confidence to rise to Class A.
Had no meaning whatsoever.
It was still necessary to produce results, but this also meant that as long as results could be produced, it was possible to get Koenji to transfer to Class B.
"You didn't come to look for me just to ask these things, right?"
"..."
Hearing his words.
Ichinose and the others looked at each other, their gazes somewhat hesitant, and finally, Hikigaya said in a heavy voice:
"Koenji... since your goal is the two million personal points for first place in the Sports Festival."
"How about Class B directly gives you two million personal points and you just give up on competing?"
This Sports Festival was not harsh.
Even feigning illness to skip the exam carried no punishment; it wasn't a difficult thing to do.
It was just that Ichinose and Kanzaki opened their mouths, looking somewhat hesitant yet also not speaking.
Twenty million to get Koenji to transfer to Class B.
That was naturally no problem.
Both of them were clear that this would be a huge benefit for Class B; as long as Koenji occasionally put in effort, his value would far exceed most people's.
However.
Giving Koenji two million for free to let him give up on competing?
It felt like a huge loss
On what basis?
Koenji only needed to sleep in the dormitory for a bit or just go out to play to earn two million?
And this money was considered to have gone into Class D's pocket.
No matter how one thought about it, it was a bit uncomfortable.
"No problem!"
Koenji nodded with satisfaction; why bother participating in the Sports Festival again if he could get two million for nothing? He indeed wasn't acting for the class.
"Of course, a contract must be signed."
"Fine."
Soon.
Hikigaya wrote down a contract for Koenji to sign, and the other party also signed his name very freely and tossed the pen onto the table casually.
The personal points their own class had worked so hard to accumulate were just given away to Koenji for free like this, and it even allowed Koenji to earn it so easily.
It was indeed a bit uncomfortable.
But there was no other way.
Koenji's strength was at the very top.
Except for the possibly existing Ayanokouji and Sudo, unfortunately, both of these people were from Class D.
Hikigaya couldn't think of anyone who was a match for Koenji.
Therefore.
One had to be decisive when it was time to spend money.
Only.
Hikigaya didn't expect things to be so easy; Koenji basically answered every question and had no intention of bargaining at all.
With Koenji's strength.
There was definitely ample room for negotiation, yet he actually accepted two million without hesitation.
During the mixed training camp.
One could often hear people from the class complaining that Koenji was unconventional and that being in the same group as him was simply a disaster.
But the current situation was.
The Koenji before them was slightly different from the Koenji in rumors.
Hikigaya was somewhat curious about what kind of person Koenji was.
