The scorching sun hung high in the sky.
The salty sea breeze blew in the face, and the sparkling sea surface rhythmically beat the reefs like a professional drummer.
"So beautiful."
Ichinose stood on the edge of the cliff, gazing at the scene before her, and the eyes of the people in Class B behind her were also shining brightly.
Not far from the reef, a wooden house stood tall.
Underneath was a steel ladder. Hikigaya tried it and it was very stable. Obviously, the school would often send people to repair it.
There are many problems with living in such a place.
Safety issues, noise, dehydration, heatstroke, but there are basically solutions.
In short, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
"I'll go down and take a look first."
Shibata walked into the wooden house along the ladder and returned in less than a moment, excitedly saying:
"Everyone, there is not only a toilet and bathroom inside, but also several fishing rods! And there is a stronghold below, but it's a pity that the stronghold is on the reef. There is no cover and it may be a bit dangerous."
"It's okay, just buy a few pieces of cloth. And this way we don't have to spend points to buy food, right?"
"I can fish, but isn't it enough to eat fish alone for seven days?"
"Indeed, but this way we can save a lot of points. It's really great."
The corners of Class B's mouths all smiled in unison.
The saved points will all be converted into class points. They are undoubtedly closer to Class A.
"Everyone,"
Ichinose raised her hand to soothe everyone and smiled
"I thought about it carefully. If we set this place as a stronghold, what we need to buy is a sunshade, two safety ropes, a water shower heater, and some earplugs. Does anyone see anything missing?"
Girls live in wooden houses.
The remaining two tents can be given to boys for use.
Earplugs prevent noise from waves.
The sunshade blocks the line of sight to prevent people from peeping at the leader with binoculars. At the same time, girls working below can also prevent heatstroke. It is much more practical than things like cloth.
As for safety ropes.
Hikigaya doesn't think it's necessary. After all, this ladder is stable enough.
And the height is only two meters.
Even if you jump down directly, it doesn't seem to be a big problem.
But girls going up and down are somewhat dangerous. It's insurance.
The two are mainly for efficiency improvement. When one person climbs the ladder, another person won't have nothing to do below.
Necessary savings, and not stingy with what should be spent.
It's not a big problem.
Hikigaya roughly calculated that this should only cost about thirty points. It's much more cost-effective than buying tents and toilets.
Even if you add some food and drinking water.
At the end of the exam, you should be able to save about 250 points. As for the rewards for occupying strongholds, don't count them.
In fact,
Anyone can use dedicated points to buy supplies from Teacher Hoshinomiya alone. He also wants to buy a bottle of MAX coffee.
Unfortunately,
I'm afraid I will be directly rejected and face repercussions from Ichinose and the others.
Forget it
"There is nothing missing. The things that need to be bought are very comprehensive."
Watanabe was somewhat puzzled: "Is there really a need for a shower? Isn't it better for everyone to use the bathroom in the wooden house? This way we can save more points?"
Watanabe
I beg you to be sensible.
Girls obviously don't want to share a bathroom with boys.
If there are girls who say 'I don't want to use things that Hikigaya has used', he wants to die.
Hikigaya was speechless. You just don't mess with me here.
"Yes, isn't it better for everyone to share one bathroom?"
A girl said
Okay, this class is full of good people who are rotten.
Hikigaya gave up.
"I thought about it carefully."
Ichinose explained: "Even if we just take a shower, each person needs at least two minutes. Girls may take longer."
"In this way, just washing will take more than two hours. The efficiency is too low. It is more convenient and efficient to buy a shower for boys. What do you think?"
"Indeed."
Watanabe and others nodded their heads.
No one else had any objections.
"So, next."
Ichinose looked around and said:
"It's about food and water."
"According to Hikigaya's speculation, there should be some places on this island that are rich in resources. I think I also saw an orchard on the way."
"Plus these fishing rods should be enough for us to get through seven days. If that's not enough, we can spend some points as a supplement, how about that?"
Quite a few people's gazes turned this way, and Hikigaya stared at the sea with an expressionless face.
My heart is like a Buddha, unmoving like a mountain.
"Not bad.
Kanzaki nodded: "I also saw it just now, I also heard the sound of running water, there should be a river on the island, we don't have to worry about drinking water."
"Is there anyone who can't accept drinking river water?"
Ichinose sought everyone's opinion.
"That... wouldn't this be a bit risky?
A short-haired girl hesitated: "If you get a stomachache from drinking and are forced to drop out of the exam, you will lose thirty points. Wouldn't that be more loss than gain?"
"Indeed, Yume's concern is very valid."
Ichinose acknowledged with a smile: "Then let's have one person try drinking the river water first. If it's safe, we'll drink river water. If there's a problem, we'll continue to buy drinking water. How about that?"
"Um, that's better."
The girl named Yume breathed a sigh of relief. Hikigaya keenly noticed that several girls seemed unable to accept it, but they couldn't speak up due to the current atmosphere.
Forget it.
It has nothing to do with him anyway.
There's no need to fight for rights for these unfamiliar girls.
River water won't kill you if you boil it. There's no problem at all.
"So now let's start assigning tasks. Does anyone have anything they want to do?"
Ichinose raised her jade arm and smiled energetically.
Hey hey hey.
There can't possibly be anyone in the world who likes to work, especially work that doesn't have any returns.
How could Ichinose make such a mistake?
Hikigaya was speechless
"I'll go check out the orchard from earlier."
"Then I'll go fishing and bring back some river water?"
"Then I'll go explore the island and see if there are any other strongholds!"
"Then I'll set up the tent."
"Then let's clean up the wooden house first?"
People from Class B volunteered one after another.
Very good.
Hikigaya nodded.
He fully understood now, this class is just a bunch of incurable good people.
"Sigh."
There's no helping it.
After all, he is also a member of Class B, he will definitely work hard too!
Thinking about it,
Hikigaya opened his mouth feeling somewhat embarrassed, then changed to raising his hand.
This was his first time voicing his own opinion.
"Hikigaya."
As expected, Ichinose didn't ignore him and smiled: "Do you have anything you want to do?"
"Mm."
Hikigaya nodded: "I'll stay here and watch the fire and boil water."
"Uh..."
Ichinose and others choked for a moment.
Who would want to do those hard jobs? And no doubt finding food, fishing, exploring the island all require cooperation with others.
He won't do it!
It's better to stay here alone and boil water.
Since work can't be avoided, then find a way to choose the easiest job!
