The perspective changed and the "men's bath" bathroom was filled with mist.
Wu Yi wrapped a bath towel around her waist, stepped onto the stairs and stepped into the bathtub. The warm water immediately reached above her knees. The temperature was just right and the water was clear enough to let you see the bottom.
There was no one else in the bathroom, and it was obvious that he was the first person to take a bath that day.
"Hmm~ It's really not poking."
Wu Yi sat down by the pool and soaked most of his body in the water comfortably.
In keeping with the style of this forest school, the school's bathroom is also a traditional Japanese-style bathroom. Except for the water pipes and shower heads, everything else is made of pure wood, and the surrounding walls are covered with pine boards.
It feels like returning home to Kyoto.
As Wu Yi thought about it, his body relaxed slightly.
Just as he was about to take off his sunglasses to enjoy this rare moment alone, faint footsteps were heard from the locker room outside the bathroom door. Then the half-hanging door curtain was lifted, and someone walked in steadily.
"Ok?"
Wu Yi had his head resting on the edge of the bathtub. He was too lazy to get up and turn his head, so he simply moved his body upwards and tilted his neck further back.
The first thing that came into view was a head of neat black hair, followed by a serious face, and... glasses that looked exactly like the original.
It turned out to be the former student council president Horikita Manabu. I didn't expect that he also came here to take a bath.
"Ah...what a coincidence."
Volume 228: Chapter : The Former Student Council President is a Sister Con
"Just tell me what you want to say. I think you went to the dormitory and asked them where I was before you came here."
As soon as Horikita Manabu entered the bath, Wu Yi spoke first before he could speak.
"After all, taking a bath in broad daylight doesn't really match your ascetic style."
Ascetic...
Horikita Manabu was choked by this nickname which sounded a bit weird but somehow fit him very well. After a moment's silence, he couldn't think of a suitable rebuttal, so he just gave up.
He nodded.
"Yes, I did come here to ask you something."
"About Nanyun?"
"……Correct."
Wu Yi guessed right again.
It’s not hard to guess. Even if we don’t mention the past, at least in this training camp, Horikita Manabu and Minamigumo Masa are in a competitive relationship.
Since they are in a competitive relationship, they are rivals, and they should be ruthless and use any means necessary to target their opponents.
And Nanyun is exactly the kind of person who likes to do whatever it takes, which is in sharp contrast to Horikita Manabu, who is an extremely honest man.
Therefore, in order to avoid some completely unexpected and irreversible situations from happening, Horikita Manabu can only ask Wu Yi, who is in the same group as Nanyun.
As for the other people in the group... whether or not to tell him is one reason, and another is that Horikita Manabu doesn't think that the other people in the group can control the intelligence on Nanyun more accurately than Wu Yi.
"Although I promised Nanyun that I would compete with him in this training camp and have a real personal ability competition, but..."
Horikita Manabu hesitated for a moment.
"It may not make sense to say this, but I do have a bad feeling."
"Let me think about it."
Wu Yi crossed his legs in the water and looked up at the ceiling, thinking for a moment.
"To be honest, if you want to ask me this, then you're probably going to be disappointed. Nanyun has been acting very normal these past few days and hasn't done anything weird. Of course, it could also be that I haven't had enough contact with him. At least I don't know what he did during his free time after school."
"That's it."
Hearing this, Horikita Manabu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
But he didn't show it and just changed the subject.
"By the way, about my sister... How is Suzune doing?"
"I said, if you want to talk about your sister, just say it directly. There's no need to force the issue like this."
After Wu Yi finished complaining, he did not forget to make another move.
"You are a sister-con ascetic who plays tsundere to your own sister!"
"..."
The corners of Horikita Manabu's mouth twitched slightly.
In just a few words, his title was suddenly extended a lot.
The most important thing is that he still couldn't refute it.
"What should I say about your sister? She's fine." Wu Yi said a little vaguely.
"Is everything okay? Suzune, is she... still the same as before?"
Horikita Manabu asked tentatively.
“I can only say that it’s not much different.”
Wu Yi shrugged.
"I still don't have many friends. I don't get along well with other people. I just hang out by myself every day..."
With every word he said, Horikita Manabu's expression grew more serious.
According to this description, his sister is still the same as before and has not made any progress.
Until he heard this.
"But when I told the class that I would bring them to Class A within a semester, your sister made it clear that she wanted to join."
"Really?"
Horikita Manabu opened his mouth slightly and his eyes widened a little.
Wow~ He looks like a brother who is obsessed with his sister and is extremely happy to hear that his sister has finally grown up.
Wu Yi said in her heart.
So he raised his finger and pointed at the corner of Horikita Manabu's mouth.
"Please shut up. I understand that as a tsundere sister-con, you are happy to hear that your sister has made progress, but my friend, look at you now. You are so happy that you are about to drool into the public bath."
"Ok?"
Horikita Manabu moved his wrist slightly, as if he wanted to raise his hand to wipe it.
However, he reacted immediately and stopped the action, then turned his head to look to the side, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.
"Is that all? That's not bad."
"Translate - She is worthy of being my sister, she is simply the best in the world!" Wu Yi said.
"I didn't say that..."
Horikita Manabu didn't really want to admit his true thoughts.
However, before he could finish his words, his nature as a sister-con was exposed again.
"But I think as long as we continue at this pace and give it time, Suzune will eventually grow into someone you can't ignore."
Can't ignore? Does it mean weight?
Wu Yi scratched his head and looked up at the sky, not intending to take into account the feelings of the former student union president who had a sister complex.
"It doesn't matter if I can't ignore it, as long as it doesn't make me unable to understand it and my eyes go dark."
"..."
Hearing this, the smile on Horikita Manabu's face instantly disappeared.
……
As the 18km cross-country session in the morning came to an end, time quickly approached noon.
At lunch time, when Wu Yi staggered into the cafeteria, he habitually glanced towards the seat where Ichinose often sat.
As expected, in that rarely visited corner, a girl with long pink hair stood out.
Wu Yi walked over after finishing her meal.
However, what was different from the previous few days was that Ichinose would always look left and right while eating, like a clever little rabbit, and would immediately greet him with a smile when she saw him coming.
But today, Ichinose was obviously silent. He just sat in his seat and mechanically stuffed food into his mouth, his eyes looking a little dazed.
"Hey, are you okay?"
Wu Yi sat down opposite her and waved his hand in front of him.
"Uh!?"
Sensing a strange object flashing before her eyes, Ichinose Hoba blinked subconsciously, and her consciousness returned to her body, with her eyes instantly focused.
"Ah, it's classmate Wu Yi. Sorry, I'm not in a good mood today..."
"What's wrong? Did you not sleep well last night, or did you have a fight with your roommate?" Wu Yi ate his rice in big mouthfuls.
"That's not the case."
Ichinose whispered and waved his hand hastily.
"How should I put it? It's just that the mental pressure is a bit too much...right?"
"Can you elaborate?"
"Well……"
The girl smiled bitterly, stopped using her chopsticks, and tightened her fingers slightly, her fingertips turning a little pale from the excessive force.
"Actually, it's because of the exams. After all, the final exam is only two days away. This training camp is probably the first time we've encountered an exam where there will definitely be dropouts. So I was thinking, if... I mean, if dropouts really appear in our first-year classes, what should we do then?"
"We have no choice but to send it..." Wu Yi told the truth.
"That's right."
After hearing this answer, Ichinose, who still had a glimmer of hope, had a more bitter smile on his face.
Indeed, what can be done?
They are just a group of students. Facing the numerous hellish tests set by the school, they have no other choice but to try their best to avoid being eliminated.
"But to be honest, it's not completely impossible."
Wu Yi changed the subject and added another sentence.
"I'm not talking about this time. There really is no way out this time. I'm not talking about absolutely no way out either. I'm talking about the future."
"after?"
Ichinose was a little confused.
Wu Yi swallowed hard and said, "Do you remember what Nanyun said during the student council meeting? The student council has the right to interfere with the content of the special exams to a certain extent. If you think about it carefully, you will find that the special exams when Horikita Manabu was in office are completely different from the ones Nanyun is doing now."
"That is to say, the student union president's ideas will greatly affect the atmosphere of the entire school."
"Then there is only one way to solve and eliminate this current dilemma."
"…What method?"
Ichinose's gaze gradually turned to hope.
"It's simple. Haven't you heard the saying, if you can't solve the problem, then you can also solve the person who created the problem."
Wu Yi looked as if it was a matter of course.
"In other words, we just need to get rid of Nanyun, the source of all evil."
Volume 229: Chapter The date was discovered
“Kill…Kill him!?”
Ichinose was so surprised that the cauliflower fell out of his mouth.
If someone else had said the same thing to her, she might not have reacted so strongly.
The problem is that these words came from Wu Yi's mouth, and it felt like he would pull out a Glock from his pocket, put it on the table, push it in front of her, and say, "Whether we can get the ticket today depends on us."
