Chapter 54: Page 54

The bald man who was replaced by Katsuragi turned around and took a look.

"That's not the case, Yahiko. For the others, they are indeed still in the search stage, but what we are trying to do now is to rush to the first base as quickly as possible."

"The...the first stronghold?"

Yahiko Totsuka was stunned, and it took him two or three seconds to react.

"Could it be that you, Katsuragi-san, already knew where the base is on this island?"

"Well, that's not entirely true."

As Katsuragi Kohei hurried on, he looked around vigilantly. After confirming that there was no one around, he slowed down his pace slightly and spoke in a low voice.

"Remember that the ship circled the island before arriving at the dock? I think that seemingly detour was a reminder from the school to the students. If you looked carefully on the deck at that time, you would have found that there were many man-made roads on the island. As long as you follow these roads, you should be able to reach different bases."

"But isn't that sightseeing? In that case, most people would understand that the school might have considered it for the sake of allowing students to enjoy the scenery, right?" Totsuka Yahiko was obviously shocked.

"If that's the case, it's too strange. Not only is the ship sailing too fast, but the content of the broadcast also seems out of place, especially the fact that students are not allowed to bring cell phones to the island." Katsuragi Kohei shook his head.

"I...didn't notice it at all..."

Upon hearing this, Yahiko Totsuka's face was full of admiration.

"So you saw through the school's intentions when you were on the ship. You are truly Katsuragi-san!"

"Okay, don't say anything extra, let's save some energy." Katsuragi Kohei was obviously not impressed by such flattery. "After occupying the first stronghold, we still have to rush to the other two places. Time is very tight."

"Good... good!"

Totsuka Yahiko nodded quickly like a chick pecking at rice.

"But if we perform well in the exam this time, the Sakayanagi faction will have to shut up."

"If you always focus on your own class, the enemy will find opportunities to take advantage of you."

Yasunari Katsuragi calmly put forward his views.

"Okay, enough small talk, Yahiko, it's time to get on with the journey."

“Uh, well…”

The above conversation was not conducted for the purpose of fishing, but Katsuragi Kohei let down his guard based on the premise of confirming that no one was following him.

After all, this is a place that is almost like a primeval forest. If it is an ambush, perhaps ordinary people can do it, but if it comes to tracking, the difficulty will undoubtedly increase exponentially.

Especially since they were walking on a straight mountain road with no cover in front or behind. If someone was behind them, they could see them at a glance. If others wanted to follow them, they would have to walk through the jungle.

The jungle is densely covered with branches and leaves. How could he maintain a speed similar to theirs and not make any sound?

At least it is impossible for ordinary people who have not received rigorous training to do so.

However, the only thing that Kōhei Katsuragi had not expected was that the person following them was not an "ordinary person who had not received rigorous training."

"Ah~ You're walking too slowly. If you're in a hurry, run like a horse~"

In fact, less than thirty meters away from the two students from Class A, Wu Yi was squatting on the crown of a camphor tree, muttering to himself.

Unfortunately, this is not a game of picking cotton on a deserted island, and his tracking target is not Nigo, so he can't wave the whip to manually overclock the former to increase efficiency.

Forget it, just take your time, there's still plenty of time.

After another twenty minutes of rushing, the two students from Class A finally reached the end of the mountain road.

It was a cave that was obviously artificially excavated, located under a vertical rock wall about five or six meters high. Although the craftsmen tried their best to preserve the inverted stalagmite shape of the stalactites on the top of the cave entrance during excavation, the inner walls on both sides of the cave were wide and smooth.

It doesn't even have the most basic knowledge of "the beginning is extremely narrow before it can be understood by everyone".

"Ahem... ahem, this is it... Katsuragi-san..."

This long journey made Totsuka Yahiko very tired, and he staggered to the entrance of the cave.

I saw something like a card swiping device embedded in the rock wall on the side of the cave opening. If you really want to describe it, it was a bit like the ones on the bus.

After hearing the words of his little fan, Katsuragi Kōhei withdrew his vigilant gaze and instead took out an emerald green card from his trouser pocket.

——Special key card.

"Well, it looks like there should be no one around. Without further ado, let's occupy this place now and then rush to the next stronghold immediately."

"it is good……"

Yahiko Totsuka reached out to take it.

The next second, a figure fell from the sky.

Boom!

The two people in Class A had no time to react to what was happening before they were slashed on the back of the neck by one of their hands. They fell to the ground with their eyes rolled back.

"Hey, look at you guys being so cautious for such a long time, but what are you being cautious about? Can't you just raise your head and take a look?"

Wu Yi, who had been squatting on the top of the rock wall right above the cave three seconds ago, couldn't help but sigh helplessly as he looked at the two people who had fallen to the ground and were completely lost.

"Why don't you just be a CT in the future? If you're new, just practice more and you can play hide-and-seek happily every day."

While muttering to himself, Wu Yi bent down to pick up the fallen key card from the ground, turned it over and took a quick look at it.

There is no key information on the front, just some nice patterns and the logo of Gaoyu High School.

But on the back is the name of the owner - Yahiko Totsuka.

Well... should we say that they are worthy of being Class A? Their efficiency is really high. While Yukinoshita and the others were still thinking about finding the camp first and confirming the leader, Class A had already simply and clearly decided on the leader and came directly with the card to occupy the stronghold.

But come to think of it, this instrument doesn't look like it can recognize identities?

Wu Yi walked around the two people who had fallen to the ground, approached the stronghold occupation device which was still in the closed state, and took a careful look at it.

There is no camera, which means it is not facial recognition.

There is no place for fingerprints, which means it is not fingerprint recognition.

So what is this...

Practice makes perfect. Wu Yi put the key card of Class A on it without hesitation.

A few seconds passed and the device remained unresponsive.

Volume 81: Chapter Hunting Class A (Part )

Needless to say, the keycard is only accessible to the leader of each class.

Wu Yi confirmed this after trying it several times.

As for the way he tried, it might be a bit inhumane, which was to carry the bodies of Katsuragi Kōhei and Totsuka Yahiko separately... No, they were not dead yet, so they could not be considered corpses.

They should have picked up the two unconscious bodies and used their hands to hold the key cards to swipe them one by one.

As expected, swiping the card with Kōhei Katsuragi's hand still didn't work.

But when Wu Yi held the key card in the user's fingers and brought it close to the base equipment, the electronic panel that had been in a dormant state as if it had no power suddenly lit up and displayed the words "Identification in progress".

This is certainly not advanced and awesome biometrics, but something else that allows the instrument to confirm that it is the leader of a class who is holding the card to occupy the point.

For example... a bracelet.

There is only this possibility, there is no other possibility.

Wu Yi thought about it for a while and figured out how to achieve this operation. He thought that the identity of each corresponding person must have been set in advance before their bracelets were issued.

Although there are no names written on them or labels on them, they are distributed in order according to their physical education class queues, ensuring that the corresponding wristbands are given to the corresponding people.

Which way or more...

In other words, as long as other people wear the leader's wristband, they can swipe the card anywhere without worrying about being seen, as long as the name on the card is not seen by others.

However, the difficulty of this operation lies in the fact that the school strictly prohibits students from taking off the wristbands during the exam. Although it does not specify what will happen after taking it off, it is likely that students will be disqualified from the exam without a valid reason.

After thinking for a moment, Wu Yi grabbed the still unconscious Katsuragi Kohei and carefully studied the bracelet on his wrist.

Needless to say, the connection is a purely mechanical structure. Wu Yi carefully confirmed this when he got the bracelet. It should not be like in the Conan movie "Detective's Requiem" where the strap is pulled off and human fireworks are set off on the spot.

Slightly peel off the outer skin of the strap...

I have to say that the material of this bracelet is quite sturdy. If an ordinary person were to use it, they would probably need the help of tools such as a screwdriver.

However, with Wu Yi's finger strength, he could dig it out easily.

Likewise, there are no signs of any sensor components under the strap.

So--

"Uh……"

Just as Wu Yi was preparing to proceed to the next experiment, Katsuragi Kohei, who was supposed to be in a coma, suddenly murmured twice, as if he was about to wake up.

I think the continuous moving just now disturbed the baby's baby-like sleep.

boom!

Without any hesitation, Wu Yi punched the latter on the chin with his backhand, and the powerful shock went straight to the brain through bone conduction.

Katsuragi Kōhei tilted his head and fell silent again.

Perhaps he felt a little uneasy, or perhaps out of consideration that inequality is more of a problem than insufficiency, two seconds later, Totsuka Yahiko, who had nothing to do with the funeral, was treated the same way.

After doing all this, Wu Yi continued his research on the bracelet.

click!

With a little force, the bracelet strap on Kōhei Katsuragi's wrist broke.

But surprisingly, the bracelet, which should have been considered as [disconnected], did not issue any warning, and there was not even any abnormality in its operation.

Huh? Could it be?

After hesitating for a moment, Wu Yi decided to make a bold attempt.

He disconnected Totsuka Yahiko's watch strap normally, but did not take it away. Instead, he kept it on the latter's wrist. At the same time, he slowly adjusted his breathing, raised his heartbeat to almost the same frequency, and then continued to adjust until the moment when the heartbeats of both were almost synchronized... switch!

While his heart was still tense, Wu Yi quickly pressed Totsuka Yahiko's bracelet onto his own hand and buckled the watch strap at the same time.

dong dong!dong dong!dong dong!

The heartbeat rate that had been intentionally accelerated was detected to slow down little by little as it returned to normal, and the heartbeat number on the strap also dropped from over 80 to 70, and finally settled in the early 50s.

"Eh~"

After observing for a while and seeing nothing unusual, Wu Yi's mouth slowly curved into an arc of "So it can be done this way".

Now, he is the leader of Class A.

……

The view changes to Class C's camp.

A group of people gathered around a thick tree to form a human wall to block possible sight from all directions, and then one of the girls attached the key card to the instrument in the base.

After a while, the words [Class C remaining usage time 7:59:59] popped up on the screen.

After the girl put the key card away again, Ichinose Honami turned around and announced to everyone with a smile.

"Okay, everyone, now we have our first campsite."

"Very good……"

Hearing this, everyone showed a relieved smile on their face.

But the next second, a voice that was enough to freeze all of their smiles rang out from the top.

"Hey, you guys are good at using this instrument, right?"

"Varied……"

I raised my head and looked upwards, and saw someone at the top of the tree doing the Asian squatting posture, with his chin supported by one hand and looking down.

"You are from Class D... No, Class B..."

"Student Wu Yi?"

Ichinose Hoba was also a little confused and kept blinking her eyes.

"You...you saw everything again?"

The word "again" is very important, but at this time no one has the spare time to care so much.

"Yeah~"

Wu Yi jumped down from the treetop with his hands in his pockets in a cool manner, and landed steadily in front of the girl who had just put away the key card.
