Book 10: Chapter 3: “The Difficulty of Salvation”
I checked my phone when I woke up the next morning.
And, sure enough, the Ayanokōji Group’s group chat had progressed greatly while I was asleep.
It hadn’t even been a full day since Chabashira had announced the supplementary exam, so it was understandably at the center of their discussion.
“They’re really being driven by their anxiety, aren’t they?”
Airi’s concern was particularly obvious given the way she had written her messages.
Things would get messy if someone in our group became a target. I wasn’t sure just how much I’d be involving myself, and it was also true that it was a difficult situation to make countermeasures for. Even though I intended to make the necessary arrangements for Hirata and Kei, there were no guarantees.
Even if you threatened someone and forced them to make an agreement, there was still a chance they would change their votes at the last minute. There was simply no surefire way to avoid expulsion if you were targeted by a large number of censure votes.
In any case, everyone had to undergo at least a certain amount of risk.
As I scrolled back through the messages, there was an interesting proposal from Keisei. I began reading from there.
