Kiyotaka Of Class B ( Year 2 )

Vol 1 Chap 1 : Co-ed Deluxe

( Scene after Prologue No'1 )

Seeing the sign on top of the doorway, Honami and I finished our first walk as second-year high school students and arrived in front of our newly allotted Classroom.

' Sit back on on your old seats and silently for your homeroom teacher '

Honami and I stared at each other as if using telepathy to communicate before subconsciously receiving the messages. She gave me a small nod before taking the initiative and entering the room.

As soon as I stepped inside, I immediately spotted the drastic changes. The most notable one was the presence of a massive black screen behind the podium, instead of a whiteboard. Alongside some what it appeared to be tablets on top of each table

Many of my Classmates spotted us and gave us a small wave while we made our way towards our seats in the back of the Classroom. Occasionally, I checked for the security cameras around the room for safety measures to find them untouched. I brushed my thoughts off before sitting on my desk

Despite the heavy silence, the atmosphere was surprisingly pretty light. Many of my classmates were silently communicating with each other through eye contact. Some smiles, weird facial expressions and stiffled laughs, the atmosphere was comparable to the usual one

This didn't come as a surprise, our class has definitely came far in order to maintain this atmosphere even during confusion. Our bounds are built from tough solids and their trust in each other is unshakable. Which is a sign of a healthy and stable Class

It is a must to have good stability and unity in order to pull out victories, even if my Class is a bit too obsessed on this part, with a capable enough leader they'll manage to pull away with no problems.

After observing them for a while, my gaze slowly drawn towards the window and observed the outside.

Yesterday was the conclusion of the first third of my stay in this institution, and today was the start of the second one. We are on the exact same day when I passed through the front gates, and said my goodbyes to Matsuo. It was the same day, yet one year after.

This isn't the only difference tho, contrary to last year today was cloudy instead of sunny. Simultaneously, this year is gonna be much harder for me compared to the last one.

The thought of having an unknown number of white room students hiding in plain sight and chasing after your head isn't reassuring at all. One of them would be enough to pull the rug under me if I was careless, so having multiple is quite troublesome

I still cannot comprehend why did Tsukishiro relay such an information to me. Whether I was aware or not, this is a crucial piece that basically confirmed by doubts and told me his next moves.

If this is a bluff, then he is basically lost. His only chance of winning is to rely on the students of this school to expel me in one way or another during an exam which is practically impossible unless I act like a moron. So his only bet is a white room student

As for the number, that man would want to send as much backup as he possibly can. However, he'd have to stay under the radar in order to not be suspicious. So the possibility of 160 white room students is basically impossible and the true number would remain a mystery

Until I discover it later on...

Kriiiiiiiiiiing

The sound of the morning bell echoed as the clock hit 8. Simultaneously, my classmates shifted in their seats to fix their postures and facing forward, getting ready for the first session of homeroom.

" Gooood morning Class~! " At that precise moment, the usual sight of Chie-sensei waltzing inside the room played in front of us again. However, with a different background. " You'all aren't looking pretty shabby, did you enjoy your spring break~? "
