I had been so focused on team interactions and trades that I forgot about it.
If I were to meet up with a close friend, I would want to join their team.
The reason I hadn’t thought of that was probably because I didn’t have many friends in my class.
Or maybe it was because I had already joined up with people like Senyuu and Shouko. It was probably both.
“Please, Shouko~”
“Ah, ahaha. I want to too, but…” She looked at me again.
She had long gray hair, with a part of her right occipital area tied up with a scrunchie. Her healthy tan skin, short skirt, and slightly disheveled uniform were the same as when she was in Japan.
She had a chest that rivaled Shouko’s, and right now, as she was hugging her, their two mounds were colliding and changing shape.
Her name was… Shoumotsu Minato, right?
I remembered her because she was Shouko’s friend.
“Come on, Shouko~. You’re the leader, right?”
“No, Uruchi. There’s a reason for that…” Shouko looked troubled as she shifted her gaze.
“There’s a strict entry screening at our place,” Chiyo offered helpfully.
Well, maybe it wasn’t exactly helpful.
“Hey, Chiyo-chan. What’s that? You mean there are conditions to join?” “Hmm.”
“Really? I can’t do anything academic, though. So, what’s the condition?”
“If you make something for Soku, you’ll have to give me an erotic reward.”
I nearly coughed in the basket.
I’ve never done anything like that before.
…Well, I get that she’s just trying to make an excuse to turn me down. “Haha, you’re kidding.” “Why do you think that?”
“I don’t get along with Koyo, but I can’t believe someone who fell for Shouji would be such a scumbag.”
Shoubu said it matter-of-factly. “Uruchi…” Shouji’s eyes welled up.
“Well, but I don’t have anything to give Koyo back. If I have to do something, I guess I will.”
“Hey, Uruchi? What’s with that positive attitude?”
「No, no, if I’m doing it, that means Shouko and the others are doing it too, right? So, I guess it’s okay.」
「Y-You have to think about that more carefully!」
「I am thinking about it. My virginity is expensive. I shouldn’t sell myself cheap, right? But being able to make anything here is pretty valuable, isn’t it?」
「Yeah, you’re right, Souya is amazing.」
「See? Even if festival food is expensive, people still buy it, right? The value of things changes depending on the situation, and people accept that and buy them. On this desert island, isn’t Kouya the most amazing guy?」
「Hmm. This black girl actually makes sense.」 Chiyu nodded in agreement.
The value of water is completely different when you buy it at a convenience store compared to when you’re stranded in a desert and need to secure it.
But since there are people who don’t understand this, Chiyu’s admiration for Shouko’s switch is understandable. 「Black girl, huh? You’re right, you’re right.」 「Got it. Shut up.」
「You’re starting to sound like a bird. Whatever.」
「Um, do we not need to consult with the team, Mr. Clarus?」
Mr. Clarus spoke cautiously.
「That’s fine. We just want to make sure you’re safe too, so could you have Shouko accompany you for the next transaction?」
Suzuou, who was nearby and about to see us off, said with a smile.
――You really intend to send us as scouts, huh…?
I couldn’t help but laugh at her strength.
Even if Shoubu didn’t intend to, if she answered all the questions they asked, the information about our base would be passed on to Suzuou’s team.
Whether it would go that smoothly or not was another matter, but it wouldn’t hurt to try.
No, I couldn’t say it wouldn’t work.
“Is it okay, Ryouka? If they find out how nice it is over here, won’t people want to switch teams?”
Yes, there was a possibility that people would leave.
“That’s something for each person to decide.”
If they considered members as manpower, they would want to prevent them from leaving.
But Suzuou was simply trying to keep the students together and survive on this desert island.
And she only had a competitive spirit toward Shouko.
She’s not a dictator or anything, just a hardworking girl.
They understand the value of information just like we do when we gather information.
“Sorry, I might have misunderstood you, Ryouka-chan.” Shion apologized.
“It’s okay. When we go back to Japan, my group will welcome you.”
“No, it’s not that bad.” “What’s that supposed to mean!” Sumika was clearly upset.
“Hehehe, Chouko-chan is also my friend.”
“You’re quite popular, Chouko. So? Are you going to leave Shoubu-san behind?” Sumika looked at Chouko.
I don’t know if it was intentional, but it was hard to refuse in this situation. —Well, whatever.
Since I’m in the basket hanging from Mikuron, talking to Mikuron won’t reveal me to anyone around.
“Mikuron, give Chouko permission to take me back.”
Mikuron nodded and approached Chouko.
“Whoa. What’s wrong, Mikuron? Oh? Oh, yes, yes, good boy Mikuron, you’re so cute~”
Shakou can understand what the phantoms want to say.
When Shakou heard my message, her expression changed for a moment, but she quickly pretended to pet Mikuron.
“Yeah, got it! Let’s go together, Uruchi!” “Huh, really?” “Of course!”
“Wah! I love you, Shakou! I’ll do my best too!” “Yeah, yeah.”
“For now, what does Koji like?” Tsuzuki said with a grin. “Sou-kun’s kinks are—” Chiyo was about to answer.
“Hey hey! Sou-suke doesn’t force anyone to do that stuff, so you don’t have to worry!” Shakou shouted.
“Hahaha, Shakou, you’re overthinking it. You’re not even his boyfriend yet, right?” ”…” Shakou’s face turned red.
”…Really? Wait, can you tell me more about it?”
“I’m not Shouko-chan’s exclusive boyfriend.”
“No, there’s no such thing as a non-exclusive boyfriend. Wait, you’re not saying—?”
“Let’s head back to base for now.”
Shion abruptly changed the subject and pushed Tsuzuki to Mashiro’s place.
…Ah, I wonder how I should explain this when I get back to base. Black gal
