And lastly, thank you
The long two weeks of testing on the uninhabited island have finally come to an end. On the last day, it appears that some of the students in the group who tried to force themselves and were injured, but the ordeal somehow came to an end. At the starting point of the test, the teachers welcomed the students to the camp.
After six in the afternoon, when the world was starting to turn red, we received a call informing us that all the participating students had returned to the ship and had been brought back.
It was announced that the results would be released on the ship, but as there was a possibility that many students would drop out, the lower groups were notified in advance.
The reality is that they will probably find out about it shortly after they get back on the ship, probably before they go to sleep.
It looks like it won't be a public execution in front of all the students.
The last five groups are called in beforehand to see if they can take preventive measures earlier.
The students who can avoid expulsion will be saved by paying the price here.
Students who do not have enough private points, or those who do, but do not use them for any reason, will be expelled at this time and will have to pack their belongings and get on a small boat.
After taking a shower for the first time in days, I decided to take a boat ride. Normally, I would have used my mobile phone to communicate with my friends and loved ones, but since the school kept holding my phone, I was not allowed to do so.
I passed some “D-class” students and we exchanged a few words of thanks for each other's hard work, but I made my way to the deck. There, I saw an interesting combination of two people.
They both faced each other and were talking face to face.
I didn't do anything in particular to hide, so one of them immediately noticed me.
His face was covered in scars, indicating that he had had a fierce battle with Housen Kazuomi during the exam.
" I'm sorry to interrupt you, but don't forget the promise you made to me, okay? And some money. "
"Of course, Ryuuen-kun. Please tell me when the time comes."
In the back Sakayanagi and Ryuuen smiled happily. Ryuuen, who mentioned the word promise, returned to the ship looking at me.
"Promise?"
"Yes. I did not know the strength of first graders. I trained Ryuuen-kun as a good soldier, but he is not the type of person who would cooperate for free. I told him that if he asked me for a favor, I would grant it to him. . "
I see. So that's why Ryuuen appeared to confront Housen.
"By the way, do you know the result of the fight?"
"I am not sure about that. I know that Ryuuen-kun and Housen-kun returned to the starting point covered in injuries, and received medical treatment and were removed. "
So the fight ended with a painful outcome with both sides withdrawing, although the winner of the fight is unknown.
But it must not have been easy for that guy who was so focused on winning the desert island event to change his mind.
"So ... was it a good idea to make a promise that easy?"
"Yes. It's a promise that may not come true anytime soon, plus ... that wish is like strangling yourself in the near future. "
Sakayanagi smiled after saying that. She had the innocent eyes of a child. It seems certain that it is not such a sweet promise to have a light date.
"I'm glad you're well. Did you have a problem with the timing of the GPS disappearance that was indicated?
"It was the perfect moment. I will definitely pay you back."
"That is a difficult proposition."
"I get it. Ayanokouji-kun now wants to lead a quiet life as much as possible. I am well aware that you won’t do anything that will make you stand out unwittingly. Do not rush. We still have almost a year and a half of school life left. "
Sakayanagi says that if there is an opportunity to compete somewhere before graduation, that is fine.
"It's almost six o'clock, it's time to announce the results, right?"
"So is."
Which group won and which group lost?
--------------------------------------------------
At 7 o'clock, the members of class D began to meet and eat in the same place. Naturally yesterday and today, the lower group lists weren't available, so the only way to know which group was underperforming was to ask them directly.
"First of all, ... I think it's great that no group from class D, from the second year, has been able to complete the special exam without missing a beat. And the fact that all the students from class D were present here it was an important factor in avoiding expulsion.”
That was really good. Looking at his companions, Yousuke just said that with all his heart. I was a little worried because I had never met Yousuke on an uninhabited island, but he seemed more worried about his friends than his own exhaustion. In case you are not sure what to do, you can always ask for help.
I decided to take a quick look at the rest of the sophomore class. If we're all here, it means that Haruka and Airi's group were safe too.
I decided to take a quick look at the rest of the sophomore class. It does not appear that any student is excessively tired. Students are enjoying a large meal for the first time in two weeks, but cannot fully enjoy it. When the teachers begin to meet, the 8:00 pm signal is given and the microphones are turned on.
"Please stop eating, it's time for the announcement"
Class 3A teacher Sasaki announced, and the students look at the teacher.
" First of all, thank you for your hard work on the uninhabited island special survey. We, the faculty and staff, are surprised by the fact that, despite a total of thirteen students dropping out, no group of students was absent during the two weeks. ”
They begin by thanking us for the hard work.
“It is possible that some classes have already noticed the lack of some students, but the last five groups were penalized and withdrawn from the school, as we had explained beforehand. If there is more than one person in a group, we will read the name of one person as a representative. The five groups are:
The 3rd D Mutou class, the 3rd D Kawakami class, the 3rd C Shinonome class, the 3rd C
Katsumata class, and the 3rd B Mikitani class. For a total of 15 people. "
The first and second graders muttered at Sasaki-sensei's explanation. Names were confirmed to be in the lower ranks just before the end of the 12th, but it was too surprising that the group of everyone who dropped out of school was third year They had assumed that Nagumo would be the one to rescue them. I also thought that some of the freshmen and sophomores would drop out as well due to the hectic mobility.
But it turned out that five groups of three third-year students were eliminated.
Given that none of these students could benefit from the recovery measures, a total of 15 students have been confirmed to drop out. Based on this result, was it secretly decided that 5 groups of 3rd grade students would drop out of school? Thinking like this, I saw the faces of the third graders, but apparently it wasn't like that. The faces of many of the students were puzzled, as if they couldn't believe what they were seeing. It seems as if they were scared of the result, as if it were an example.
I tried to find Nagumo, but the face I saw for a moment was unusual for him. However, perhaps the aggression of the last hour with me could have influenced this result.
The power of the huge screen is turned on, a white image is projected on the screen and another person comes out.
"Then, we will announce the three main groups as a result of the special examination of the uninhabited island."
Acting Director Tsukishiro. I didn't think he had been so calm, after fighting with me. He proceeded calmly, as when he declared the start
"Third place, 2nd year Group Class A Sakayanagi Arisu. 261 points "
Suddenly, a group of sophomores showed up for third place. They seemed to have made the most of the advantages of the only seven-member group allowed for sophomores, and had slowly worked their way up the rankings amassing a solid score and slipping into third place.
On the last day, Ichinose left the team in the middle of the tournament, but the effect was not so serious.
As for the scores, Ryuuen and Katsuragi's group also fought hard, but Ryuuen's withdrawal on the 13th must have had a big impact. With Katsuragi alone, the order of arrival of the rewards disappeared and the number of challenges he could participate in decreased. It must have been two very hard days for him, as he had to act with caution to avoid the risk of withdrawing.
The doubling of the score on the final day must have been a headwind. For a change, Sakayanagi had things in order. The students who were sent to detain the freshmen were all outside of Sakayanagi's group. The tablet used was also from another group and was not at higher risk.
She responded well to dangerous opponents with Ryuuen involved.
She must have foreseen that interacting with Kazuomi Housen was also dangerous for Ryuuen.
Today there are many people who are looking for the best way to get the most out of their life.
Was it moved because of the high school connection or is it related to the "promise"? If it's the latter, then it's more attractive than the increased 3rd place and try card rewards.
However, it was surprising to see how Kiriyama's group was left standing at the end of the match.
And what about second place.
It is not an exaggeration to say that everything is decided here. At the end of the 12th, it was confirmed that it was between Nagumo and Kouenji Even if they lose a few points, they won't wreak havoc when it comes to the third-place score.
Is it Nagumo who brought the 3rd years together, or is it Kouenji who kept showing an unstoppable rhythm on his own?
"2nd place, 2nd year Group Class A Nagumo Miyabi. 325 points "
When acting director Tsukishiro read this, there was not a cheer but a shout.
Without pausing for a moment, he moved on to the first place announcement.
"1st place, 2nd year class D Kouenji Rokusuke. 327 points "
The moment the name was spoken, Kouenji caught the attention and gaze of all the students.
No one was attracted to the appearance of winning, and he stood still. If you look only at the result, there is only 2 points of difference. and it could have been canceled by a small incident.
However, Kouenji achieved the feat of 1st place in the harshest conditions of being alone.
He obtained the 300 class points that should be distributed for the first place, a million private points for each person and a protection point.
"You really have done it, Kouenji-kun."
Kouenji turned his gaze to Horikita and said: - "I'm sure you understand, right?"
As promised, Kouenji has been granted immunity until graduation.
It also means that, from now on, he was going to do whatever he wanted with his school life.
"I'm not ... happy at all, or at least I can't say I'm disappointed ..."
“I think we can be happy now, right? We have achieved 300 class points on our own, which is a very important point to move up to class A. It is the second time we have left class D. "
Furthermore, Kouenji was originally doing what he wanted and they had no control over him.
"Yes, that's right. Now let's go up again. It doesn't matter what changes from class B to class D."
"As long as we don't make a mess this month during our day-to-day activities and things don't go too low."
Class points are slightly reduced due to daily activities and behavior problems. "... Do not say foolishness."
However, I think again that the difference between these two points is of great significance. Today I remember the figure of Miyabi Nagumo who took the trouble to visit me.
His partner's voice that I heard from his walkie-talkie at the time.
If Nagumo had responded to that voice at that time, the first and second place results would have been reversed.
And I think there would have been a difference in the group that was expelled.
It is not something that can be answered by thinking about it here.
First of all, this long special exam ended successfully. Miraculously, not a single sophomore was absent and the summer was able to get through.
I also found out that Amasawa Ichika is a White Room student.
I don't know why, but at least now she's taking my side instead of Tsukishiro's side. There is no way of knowing if this is a coordinated strategy or if Amasawa is acting alone after betraying the White Room, but the information I have obtained is not insignificant.
Even so, there are still some mysteries to be solved. Maybe this summer vacation won't end well.

There were some problems with the wording but practice makes perfect. I really appreciate you taking the time to translate this and hope to read more from you
Fuck everything that has happened so far. Without a doubt, the best part of them all is Kouenji getting 1st place.
