Classroom of the Elite (LN)-Vol 15 Chapter 5.7: Part 7

"─── Thank you for your report, you can go back to the exam."

Tsubaki, who received a report from the walkie-talkie, ended the call quietly. "It didn't go very well, did it?"

Seeing her complexion and judging her like this, Yagami asks.

"When I went to see the point where Housen-kun would have come into contact, it seems that the teachers were meeting and were taking him back to the starting point. He got into a fight with a boy named Ryuuen from the 2nd class. grade B, and they both got very injured. Well, it was kind of suspicious because Ayanokouji-senpai kept moving.”

If Housen had drawn him one-on-one, the GPS would have had to stop moving on the spot.

"I don't know much about that person, but he stopped Housen-kun."

Tsubaki, unconvinced, purses her lips and reflects on the failure of this plan. This is because Ayanokouji's designated areas were C3 and D2, the perfect place to surround him. However, this positive factor also gave the adversary time.

"This is not the end of Ayanokouji's expulsion, is it? For the first graders to be safely saved, we have to crush the other independent groups. If you have any other ideas, let me know."

Yagami presses her, but Tsubaki looks away and mutters with interest.

"I don't think we should cross more dangerous bridges. If we force ourselves to help a group of people who are falling here, sooner or later they are destined to disappear."

"...... So you're saying you're backing out here?"

“There is something I don't like. Perhaps it was decided early on that my plan would not work. "

"What do you mean?"

"The story of the bounty in his head is spinning on its own, and Ayanokouji-senpai's vigilance is strong. Most importantly, as long as I don't trust my first-year classmates, it means that this plan was reckless.”

Tsubaki disliked the interruption, which was more annoying than being dejected over failure.

"I regret having done it alone."

She was very sorry, saying she could have done a much better job. When she released the tablet screen, she noticed something.

"Eh?"

For here Tsubaki realized that Utomiya was not present.

"What happened?"

"Where is Utomiya?"

When she said that, Yagami also pretended to notice Utomiya's absence.

"I think it was close until about 30 minutes ago ..."

It was when Tsubaki was launching into battle with an enemy that she couldn't see on her tablet. Feeling disturbed, Tsubaki shows a map 10 minutes ago and searches for Utomiya's location.

It was about 400 meters southwest of where Tsubaki was standing.

"What are you doing……?"

There was only a GPS reaction near it, and the name was─ Hayato Kitou second year from class A. The moment she saw the name, Tsubaki took the walkie talkie.
