COTE: A Man On A Mission II Love is War?

"So, your loss is 100 points!”

“• ! • " X2

People of Class B were just left silent for a moment.

Originally, before Kaneda left, he was reminded that nerd was a spy, which made it difficult for Ichinose to deal.

When Kaneda left, he also considered that Class A might guess the leader's information.

....Yeah, 50 point deduction.

'But now, suddenly I feel that things have become really serious!

It is now 4th day on the island, and they will stay for another two and a half days, and their class's initial points are still 212.

After the exam was done, power of consumption hinder the final balance to show 170 points.

Then if two classes guess, it will become 70.

Then, you have to guess the leader information of Class A and D.

Otherwise, everyone who did work hard for a week, saved money, and protected each other, and then at the end of the exam, would only have a score of 70.

Mood would be very bad.

“So, do you think your name has been leaked?" Hachiman was just playing with Kanzaki's emotions right now, deliberately asked with such an innocent face, like he really had no perverted ideas.

But, Ichinose who took a deep breath to calm down first, then nodded slightly.

Kanzaki just smiled bitterly, “Don't know. Because Kaneda has always been very enthusiastic in class, there is no abnormality....”

"However, it is also possible that Leader's name was discovered quite early on, and then... he deliberately lurked...” Kanzaki actually used the word lurking, in front of Ichinose.

It shows how much pissed off he is right now with her.

“.....” Ichinose, who was just trying to help people in trouble.

This also shows that Class B, the angel class, has been taught a hard lesson this time.

Ichinose started to have some vigilance!

"Then follow the original plan,” But Hachiman knew people who were created in Class B are just mindless sheep, with no power attack.

To be exact, social animals. Ichinose is hopeless.....

“On the evening of the sixth day, I will tell you the leader information of Class A and D. Even if you are guessed by Katsuragi, Ryuen, can even out the points deduction. And just to be on the safe side.”

“I suggest you change the team leader. Over at Koenji, he is doing his best to damage his body in the past two days. So, you should catch some snakes, and then prepare to gain bonus points for the last time on the sixth day.”

“After that, choose to quit being eaten by snakes, a valid reason!”

“Or you can just eat Crotons!”

In other words, Hikigaya-kun recommended the team leader change plan based on the rule.

“Leader cannot be changed without a valid reason.”

But each one comes at the expense of that child's physical discomfort.

Therefore, if you want to avoid being guessed as the team leader, fragile looking Chihiro-chan must pay the huge price.

“But....Doesn't necessarily mean that our leader's identity has been revealed...” Even, Ichinose herself didn't seem to believe what she just said.

But, there is no real evidence that our team leader was leaked, or not.

To them it was Schrödinger's performance.

If the identity is not revealed and Chihiro-chan gets asked to withdraw in vain, then her being injured....

Ichinose could never do anything like seeing her friends being injured.

“....Indeed, we should go back and discuss this matter carefully." Kanzaki's frown only got much bigger as he thought.

Because he was thinking that option of team leader this time was Chihiro Shiranami.

Girl is a bit introverted and likes to cry very much.

This kind of weak girl is suitable for protection, not bullying.

If a boy was placed instead of her, would likely say yes to accept the Self-damage proposal by Hikigaya.

Kanzaki Ryuji is an introverted person who doesn't like to talk, but as long as you get in touch with him, you will know that he is actually a very kind and gentle person.

Ichinose's admission scores were very good, but she felt that Kanzaki-kun's grades were not bad either.

Since the class elected her as the  President, Kanzaki-kun would only be the deputy staff officer.

This time, he was also involved in accepting Kaneda on seeing Ichinose's warm face, so believed that he was also responsible.

“Thank you for your advice.” Kanzaki bowed his head in real gratitude, “We will make a choice the day after tomorrow at the latest.”

“How do you make a choice?” Hey, Suzune was also here, don't forget her. '....I just followed into woods, and Hachiman was the one speaking throughout the process.'

Suzune's cold has gone, now jumping around in good spirits. 'I'm more concerned about the exam now.....'

But, atmosphere reduced several degrees as soon as she opened her mouth.

There is no way you can be so direct.

If Kushida were here now, she would probably be complaining in her heart that Hikigaya-kun is a straight man, but Suzune isn't bad either.

“Probably...” Ichinose also didn't expect Suzune to be so direct.

'But, Horikita-san is often alone or together with Hikigaya-kun, and this is not the first time that I have come into contact with her, so knows that the other party is probably careless....'

She is a straight woman.

Ichinose decided to swallow her puddle, and gave a very formal looking response to satisfy her curious urges, “Inform my class with information about our leader may have leaked, and then vote on whether to change...”

"Of course, the most important thing is the person in question, Chihiro-chan's opinion!” Ichinose wasn't really heartless after all, she quickly reflected on her statement.

'In other words, a complete democracy?!' Suzune nodded and remembered Ichinose's answer for a long time.

She was assigned to Class D, and not used much due to her illness.

But, she herself felt...if she could gain points, would be very willing to get injured or sick!

'After all, I have a strong belief in rushing into Class A!' Although, people here like Hirata also disappointed her.

But as long as you take class A, even though you may not be able to eat still, it's going to be a huge miracle of this school.

'So, maybe I can get my brother's approval.....'

But, Suzune was dosed earlier by her deskmate to think about her future.

This time Hachiman makes a deal with Class B and gets points.

So, if there is a chance in future exams, Suzune can also collect some points.

If she bonked 20 million points, can even choose to skip classes!

You can jump to the current Class A or Class B, which is only slightly worse than A in terms of configuration.

Then, it will be a fierce Class battle!

'....So, there’s nothing wrong with learning more about these popular idols, right?' Suzune was busy taking notes.

Of course, these are not even a few words.

Her private account is still very clean, with 200,000 saved.

After consulting with Ichinose, she just remained quiet.

“If it were just democracy, then your class might not be able to change the team leader!” Hachiman said, with gritted teeth.

To be honest, he was just feeling even more aggrieved, because how much disappointed you could get?!

Hachiman is very self-aware, knew very well that he is definitely more on the high ground, when compared with people like her.

'Really, you sorted me into Class D? Sigh....well, I came from the back door, it's not really surprising.'

“Kushida has been in contact with the classmates in your class and feels you they are all little angels. They probably can't do anything to hurt their classmates..”

“Hikigaya-kun……” Kanzaki and Ichinose couldn't veto it, even felt standing naked in front of outsiders.

Because of the injury mentioned by Hikigaya-kun, people would be worried about whether they would recover quickly after the injury or whether there would be any sequelae.

Is snake bite really okay? And what to do if you become dehydrated after eating a croton?

Although, just wanted to go back and discuss it with everyone, Ichinose and Kanzaki felt they might get a non-handling answer.

“We are friends after all,” Hachiman stared at their paled expressions, and then parted his lips in a slightly relaxed tone, “Then let me give you some extra benefits. I explored a hidden stronghold in the morning. I want to sell you the information abo-”

“Hikigaya-kun, I don't wan-”

“Don't even look down on this stronghold, you fool!”

Ichinose stared at the ground pretending to be a lost chicken, after being reprimanded.

“???” Kanzaki, her staff worker.

“This secret base is home of the workers on this artificial island. I guess that if you can occupy this stronghold, will get a certain amount of bonus points!”

"At worst, your class's score at the end of this exam will only be about 170 points....But if you go to that stronghold and mark it up, might be able to cross over 200 points....”

“• × ” Suzune, who just heard it for the 1st time.

“Is that so...” But, Kanzaki now looked at his leader Ichinose in a thoughtful expression.

He is just a staff worker, only carrying the notebook around like a good follower, the main class president is Ichinose Honami.

It was also because spies were planted in the class.

But Class C was willing to let Koenji get hurt, but their own just couldn't do it.

'So, I can't make the other party feel relaxed at all....' Kanzaki is being under handed.

Naturally...if you can get extra points, you must seize the opportunity!

After a decision was made between two people's small glance, “So how many points are you going to ask this time?”

This is too much to say. Talking about money hurts feelings.

“Same deal as before,” Hachiman was pretty humble, he didn't look down at them, “I have obtained points for you, but what I need is the corresponding living expenses!”

“Fixed price, 100,000 private points + same CP value as the extra points after occupation.”
