Kaoru Mitoma subtly distanced himself a bit, but this movement didn't escape Ryuen's notice.

"Don't be ridiculous, I don't have that kind of interest in you," Ryuen said with a dark expression, then straightforwardly asked.

"You were the one behind everything last night, weren't you? Sakayanagi isn't your person, so you managed to deceive both of us."

With outsiders present, Kikyo Kushida gradually calmed down and couldn't help but glance at Kaoru Mitoma who remained unfazed.

"I just told the answer to Katsuragi-kun. What happened afterward had little to do with me," Kaoru Mitoma said.

"Actually, you already know the outcome in your heart. There's no need to confirm it with me."

Ryuen held back for a long time but ultimately didn't argue with him and simply stating.

"The answer doesn't matter anyway. That's not what I'm asking about. The personal points from the deserted island will be transferred to your Class A on September 1st. Will it be sent to you or Katsuragi?"

Kushida blinked.

Was it appropriate to discuss such matters in front of her, a Class D student?

"Give it to Morishita-san. She's more suitable to receive the transfer," Kaoru Mitoma instinctively replied.

Ryuen revealed a faint smile, his was tone playful.

"So it really is you who's controlling Class A. Has Katsuragi become your puppet?"

He didnt expect that a casual probe would uncover the true relationship between Kaoru Mitoma and Katsuragi.

When faced with handling class affairs, Mitoma's first reaction was to make decisions on his own, and he didn't even mention Katsuragi.

That was enough to explain the situation.

"Don't exaggerate like that. In reality, Katsuragi and I are friends," Mitoma didn't deny it.

After all, such things couldn't be kept hidden forever, and he planned to gradually shape his image in front of Class A.

"Hmph, save that line for fooling little girls!" Ryuen scoffed, then turned his gaze to Kikyo Kushida, who was standing nearby.

"To be honest, I'm quite curious about what the two of you are discussing here. Mind if I listen in?"

Normally, Ryuen wouldn't have the slightest interest—they're just another pair of lovebirds, after all.

But Kushida was the VIP of the Dragon Group.

The fact that the two of them met at a café immediately after the exam made Ryuen suspect there might be something more to it.

However, Kushida spoke up first. "I think Ryuen-kun might be misunderstanding something. The reason I'm meeting with Mitoma-kun here is simply because I wanted to ask him for a favor."

Ryuen's eyes gleamed and he sneered inwardly, but his words were polite.

"Why don't you tell me about it? Maybe I can help too."

"I'm sorry, Ryuen-kun, but you definitely can't," Kushida said with an apologetic expression. "Because someone in our class asked me to arrange a meeting with Mitoma-kun, hoping to become friends with him."

Ryuen fell silent for a moment.

The implication was too obvious.

Whether she was trying to get rid of him or being serious, he felt that forcing himself to stay would only make him look like a fool.

"Good luck to you both."

With that, he turned and left without hesitation.

Mitoma looked at Kushida with slight surprise.

He hadn't expected her to be so clever.

"Hehe, I'm not an idiot. He knew that even if he stayed, he wouldn't hear anything useful. He just wanted to annoy us," Kushida said with a smug expression. "Similarly, we can annoy him back and make him feel like he's wasting his time."

"Kushida-san, you really are sharp and clever," Mitoma praised her.

Kushida eyed Mitoma suspiciously, feeling like he was mocking her, but she didn't dwell on it.

Instead, she continued enthusiastically, "It should be about time now, right? Horikita didn't earn a single personal point on the deserted island, and the exam ended last night. According to your agreement, hasn't she already become your slave?"

Why do you seem even more excited than me?

"On paper, yes. But she'll definitely try to resist," Mitoma estimated that Horikita Suzune wouldn't give up so easily.

She would likely become obsessively fixated on personal points from now on.

Kushida couldn't help but chuckle, then lowered her voice.

"It wouldn't be fun if she didn't resist. It's more entertaining if she does. I can help you 'tame' her."

Mitoma hesitated. "Are you sure you're not a lesbian?"

Kushida nearly lunged at him to give him a beating, replying irritably, "If you bring that up again, I'll bite your dick next time!"

Since she seemed genuinely angry, Kaoru Mitoma couldn't help but avert his gaze.

However, Kushida wasn't that upset and soon excitedly shared a little secret with Kaoru Mitoma.

"I bought a secret weapon

and it will be delivered to the school soon. When it arrives, we can do this..."

After hearing Kushida's whisper, Kaoru Mitoma showed a strange expression.

She always called him a pervert, but in reality, she seemed to be even more adventurous than him.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Kushida was very conscious of his gaze, her pretty face slightly red.

"I warn you, don't get any weird ideas. I'm a genuine virgin, and I've never used any of those toys!"

"I wasn't thinking about that. I'm just surprised that you know so much," Kaoru Mitoma said, giving the girl a meaningful look.

"W-well, girls get curious too... I don't watch that stuff every day... and, well, the pressure has been a bit much lately..." Kushida stammered, suddenly realizing why she was explaining all this to him. Her face grew redder and redder.

"You perverted foot fetishist, armpit lover! It's all your fault for making me say these things!"

"Alright, alright, it's all my fault. I'll make sure to call you when the time comes."

"It *is* your fault!"

"..."

Perhaps because they were in a café, Kushida didn't stay agitated for long and quickly regained her composure, though a faint blush remained on her face.

Soon after, Kaoru Mitoma exchanged the remaining information with her, and their meeting was about to come to an end.

"By the way, it seems like Karuizawa-san didn't come out today. She's staying alone in her room."

As they walked to the café entrance, Kaoru Mitoma glanced at Kushida beside him.

The girl's expression was calm and composed, her demeanor that of a model student.

"How do you even know that?"

"Because I'm amazing, unlike someone who's always thinking about perverted things," Kushida said, looking up at him with narrowed eyes before giving him a charming smile.

"You asked me to help gather information because I can do more than just satisfy your perverted requests, right?"

Kaoru Mitoma had no response, but his reaction only made Kushida even happier.

"Kikyo-chan, we're here!"

At that moment, a few girls waved at them from a distance.

Kushida waved back enthusiastically, her smile pure and innocent, though her voice was low.

"Hey, little pervert, my task is done, right? I've already made plans to go to the spa with Sato and the others later!"

"Of course, but there's one thing I need to remind you about."

Just as Kikyo Kushida was about to ask what it was, Kaoru Mitoma suddenly walked past her, leaving a soft whisper in her ear.

"Remember to pee."

In an instant, a blush spread from the girl's earlobes down to her pale neck.

His whisper was teasing, like a switch that had been flipped, causing her legs to tremble slightly.

A faint warmth rose in her lower abdomen, and she instinctively pressed her hands against her skirt.

The friction between her thighs made the moisture inside her grow more intense.

She bit her lip, her face completely red as she glared at Kaoru Mitoma's retreating figure.

That guy definitely did it on purpose!

B-but why does my body have to listen to him like this... ugh...

Kushida pretty face was growing redder by the second.

The innocent smile from earlier had long since disappeared as she struggled to endure the urge to urinate.

This was a conditioned reflex developed over two months—whenever she heard Kaoru Mitoma's command, her body would involuntarily react.

Gulp... I knew it.

I shouldn't have provoked him earlier...

No, I can't let it out here...

Ugh..
