You Will Regret This Ichinose! [150]

Night had fallen.

Inside Uesugi’s room.

“So…”

Uesugi looked at the girl standing before him, grinning sheepishly.

“Miss Accomplice, what exactly have you been up to lately? Wouldn’t this special exam be the perfect opportunity to lure Horikita Suzune out for a one-on-one showdown?”

“That’s why I came to discuss it with you!”

Kushida Kikyo muttered, lowering her head.

“And what’s your plan?”

Straightening her back—intentionally accentuating her ample chest—Kushida puffed up with confidence and declared, “You take her out for me!”

“…”

Uesugi’s expression remained deadpan. “That’s an absolutely flawless plan… but what exactly does it have to do with you?”

“Well…”

Kushida suddenly slipped behind him, wrapping her arms around his waist. Her sweet, coquettish voice whispered into his ear.

“We’re partners, aren’t we~?”

“Oh, in that case, hand over the memory card. I’ve already beaten her more than once.”

Uesugi extended his hand toward her.

“No way!”

Miss Accomplice immediately shook her head, her vigilance on full display. “I worked so hard to get leverage on her—why would I just let it go?”

“I’d prefer if you held onto it for now too. After all, your class’s remaining class points are barely under 50. Using it now would be a huge waste.”

Uesugi continued, “But given her current state, it might not be long before she stops caring about class competition altogether. If that happens, your leverage will be useless.”

“Of course, I know that!”

Kushida grit her teeth.

“That woman barely involves herself with class affairs anymore. She only said she’d help with the test questions for this special exam and then left like it had nothing to do with her.”

Her arms tightened around Uesugi as she continued, her tone growing sharper.

“I chased after her, and that damn woman had the audacity to ignore me. Absolutely unforgivable.”

Uesugi instinctively averted his gaze. For the record, whatever happened to Horikita has absolutely nothing to do with me.

…Wait.

Given Kushida’s obsession with Horikita, there was no way she hadn’t already considered a plan. The only reason she hadn’t acted yet must be because she wasn’t confident enough in it.

“You already have a concrete plan, don’t you? Let’s hear it.”

A sly grin appeared on Uesugi’s face as he prepared to enjoy Miss Accomplice’s brilliant revenge scheme.

Busted, Kushida quickly spun around and burrowed into Uesugi’s chest, her voice dripping with sugar.

“How about… your Class A attacks my class?”

Ah.

Uesugi immediately understood what she was after.

“You want me to give you the test questions and answers so you can memorize them and then challenge Horikita Suzune to a showdown, right?”

A slow, knowing smile spread across his face.

“Hehehe~”

Kushida lifted her flushed face from his chest, looking both smug and adorable.

“Well? Isn’t it a perfect plan?”

Black lines formed across Uesugi’s forehead. Without hesitation, he reached out and pinched both of Kushida’s cheeks.

“Have some dignity, will you? You’re the one choosing the time, place, and event for your duel, and now you want me to straight-up cheat for you?”

He continued, smirking.

“How about this? I’ll go beg Horikita to just surrender. That way, you win without lifting a finger.”

“…I can’t beat her.”

She pouted, tightening her hold around his waist.

Frustration laced her voice.

“She’s better than me at everything except socializing. Even if only by a little, she always comes out ahead.”

Now that she puts it that way…

Uesugi glanced at the girl clinging to him—the embodiment of social prowess—and then thought of the stubborn, cold Horikita Suzune.

Oddly enough, their abilities seemed to complement each other rather well.

“So…”

Kushida propped herself up, straddling Uesugi directly. Her soft body pressed against his, her breath hot and heavy. A tantalizing scent surrounded him.

“Help me, won’t you?”

Leaning closer, her lips parted ever so slightly near his ear.

“Master…”

Uesugi’s entire body tensed.

His gaze locked onto the delicate face less than ten centimeters away.

This little minx…!

“I’ll do anything you want.”

Her voice dripped with honey.

“Deal!”

Uesugi immediately grasped her hand.

“But your plan for Class A to attack Class D is impossible.”

Think about it—choosing an attack target only works when there’s no conflict. No matter how much Class D studied in a short time, there was no way they could defeat an upper-class team. The best approach was for Class C and Class D to be each other’s attack and defense targets. That way, at least they’d have a shot at winning.

“#@!”

Kushida’s expression instantly shifted like a Sichuan opera face change.

She unleashed a flurry of punches on Uesugi’s chest, her tone furious.

“You’re only telling me this now after all that?!”

“Relax.”

Uesugi caught her wrists.

“Getting Class C’s test questions works just as well. I’ll handle Ryuen for you—I need to talk to him anyway.”

“But…”

Uesugi tapped his chin, then teased her.

“That guy only cares about money. Buying him off won’t be cheap. Miss Accomplice, how many private points do you have left?”

Kushida stiffened.

Class D had barely 50 class points left, and on a personal level, their biggest expenses came from the luxury cruise test and whatever scraps Uesugi had shared.

As for how much she had left…

“…Can I pay with my body?”

She fluttered her eyelashes innocently.

“Nope. That’s a huge loss for me.”

Uesugi rejected her flatly.

“You’re already mine, so even if you ‘paid’ that way, nothing would change. That’s not how business works.”

“Go to hell!”

Kushida flailed like an enraged kitten, throwing herself against him.

“I don’t care! You will help me! Otherwise, I’ll bite you to death right here!”

“Fine, fine. I’ll cover the cost.”

Uesugi sighed in defeat.

“Hmph. That’s more like it.”

Kushida immediately softened, nuzzling against him. Her warm breath brushed against his skin as she whispered,

“This is your reward.”

The next moment, an unbelievably soft sensation pressed against his face.

A delicate, milky fragrance tickled his nose.

Wait—was that… milk?

But before he could fully enjoy the moment, his vision darkened.

A crushing suffocation overtook him.

“Mmph! I-I can’t breathe…!”

Finally, after luring him into her trap, Miss Accomplice revealed her true fangs.

She leaned down, pressing his head into her chest as she hissed menacingly:

“Now… tell me.”

“What exactly is your relationship with Horikita Suzune?!”

“Horikita-san? Hah! You call her so affectionately! Ever since the uninhabited island exam, I knew something was fishy between you two!”

She tightened her hold, her voice seething with jealousy.

“Spill it! Otherwise, I’ll smother you to death right here and now!”
