Chapter 125: 3.1

When I returned from the bathroom in the morning, I came back to see Ibuki looking through my tent.

"What are you doing?"

"Ah!" Ibuki jumped at my words.

Looks like she was rummaging through my backpack and was surprised to see me return so quickly. freёwebnoѵel.com

"Do you want to see my tablet? Or is there something in particular you want?"

Unfortunately for Ibuki, I had set the screen lock, so no one else could see the data inside.

"Of course not! I just wanted... to make sure our deal was really fair.

That's all." Ibuki said as she stepped away from my backpack.

"There's only one bottle of water left in your backpack. How the hell do you have an "excess," huh?"

I left for only a minute, but it looks like I was too careless. It was enough time for Ibuki to go through the contents of my backpack. However, I have no right to blame her. Yesterday I went through Ibuki's backpack without permission. Even if I falsely claimed it's because I drank all the water last night, she'll only ask me where the empty plastic bottles are. And it's against the rules to dump trash on an uninhabited island. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"I see. You wanted me to owe you right? Is that why you helped me?"

Ibuki scowled at me.

"If you hadn't checked my bag, would you have known I was selling you a favour?"

"Well..."

Ibuki seemed to understand what I was implying.

"In other words, it was a fair exchange no matter what the truth is."

"It's hard to accept but I suppose I don't owe you anything, then right?"

"Would you give me something even if you did?"

"No way."

"Thought so."

I stopped the conversation there and went back to my tent.

The time was now 6:30 A.M. and I could hear the sound of Ibuki moving about. I opened the entrance to see what was going on and saw that her tent was all packed up. If this had been the second or third day of the special exam, I might have thought that she was really motivated. But since there's an atmosphere that gives me the impression she doesn't want to talk, I once again retracted my head inside the tent.

Finally, at seven o'clock, the first designated area had been announced, and it was the E4. I didn't hesitate to use a point for a GPS search, and I got the location of all the students at seven o'clock. In reality, spending a point here only brought me benefits. Since my points were very close to the 10th place Kuronaga group, I could use this method to widen the gap. Also, if I use one point, my point gap with the Kuronaga group will increase to twelve points, and if I get first place in placement points which will earn me 11 points, I won't surpass the Kuronaga group.

As of now, there are three groups on the map that will most likely compete for the reward of placement points. Unfortunately, there's a person among these groups that is a "strong enemy," and they're in a perfect position to hinder my success. Depending on the situation, I was planning on dropping the events and give resupplying my resources top priority. Based on this scan, I can also get a clear picture of how many students were gathering around the event I was targeting. That means I can predict the competition rate of the event at a much earlier stage.

When I left the tent after completing my preparations, Ibuki was nowhere to be seen.

There isn't much advantage in moving before the exam started, so perhaps she just wanted to escape my presence.
