AS NIGHT FELL on our third day, I entered the large bathhouse. Several guys were gathered in one corner; I saw not only Yamauchi and Ike but also some Class B students like Shibata. I exchanged glances with Kanzaki, who entered the bathhouse at the same time as me.

“This is a pretty unusual combination of people,” said Kanzaki, surveying the gathering with surprise.

“Yeah, sure seems that way.”

“How’s your group? Any trouble?”

“Dunno. But I can’t say it’s going all that well,” I replied honestly.

Kanzaki seemed unsurprised. “Well, if you have a small group made up of an uneven number of students from four different classes, there’s bound to be tension.”

“I wish that were all it was.”

“Moriyama and the others told me. Sounds like you guys really have your hands full with Kouenji.” A natural assumption, under the circumstances.

“I’m trying my best as a classmate, but I have absolutely no control over him,” I said.

“Speaking of control, have you heard about what’s going on with Ryuuen?”

“No, I haven’t heard anything.”

It was three days since Akito had entered Ryuuen’s group. Even though we saw each other in the bath, on the way to the toilet, or during mealtimes, we hardly ever spoke.

“If he were scheming or something, there’d be reports. But I haven’t heard anything.”

If Kanzaki—Class B’s second-in-command—said no rumors were going around, then it was probably true. As someone who knew the full extent of the situation, I doubted Ryuuen would try anything, but the other students probably weren’t going to let their guard down for a while. Many probably suspected he would spring some kind of trap by the end of the exam.

“If you’re ever in trouble, find me. I’d like for our good relationship with Class C to continue. Ichinose feels the same way, of course.”

“I sincerely appreciate that.”

“Ichinose seems to have a really high opinion of Horikita. More so for her honesty than her ability, though.”

“Her honesty? Huh.”

I didn’t know if I would call Horikita “honest” myself, but Kanzaki’s definition of the word might be slightly different from my own. He probably meant she had integrity. She was a firm believer in keeping her promises. You couldn’t expect anything of the sort from Sakayanagi or Ryuuen.

“Oh, Kanzaki! Hey, over here!”

Shibata waved.

“Ayanokouji! You come over too!”

Yamauchi signaled for me. Unable to decline under the current circumstances, I went.

“What’s up?” said Kanzaki to Shibata.

“Just having a blast with Yamauchi and the guys here. Bein’ totally honest and talking about something kinda weird.”

“Kinda weird?”

“We’ve been talking about who has the biggest thing in our grade.”

“What thing?”

“Dude, isn’t it obvious what we mean? You know, down there,” said Shibata with a laugh, pointing at the center of the white towel wrapped around his hips.

“I see. Sounds like you’re having fun.” Kanzaki released an exasperated sigh at the childish competition that Shibata was engaged in.

“I mean, yeah, it’s childish. But hey, it’s surprisingly fun.”

Kanzaki and I didn’t get what was so fun about it. We exchanged glances and decided to keep our distance. When Shibata and the other started their discussion once again, Kanzaki left.
