COTE: A Man On A Mission || Love is War?

Because the food on the ship is free, people can order as much as they like, without thinking about the cost.

Only, Hachiman’s mood is a little subtle right now because, he keeps forgetting this incredible deal.....

’I was almost deceived by Hirata!’

Indeed, he just came here to meet that green-haired boy, who promised to treat him....it turned out, Ike’s group was already squatting here, then invited Hachiman over.

’Not even a sign of Hirata’s face...where did this boy go?’

Even though, these doubts were swirling around in Hachiman’s mind, he couldn’t help but notice, that interior of this place....it looks very expensive.

“By the way, can we really come to such a high-end place?” Yesterday, these people just ate udon noodles in a small cafe, but today Ike discovered, there was a high-end Western restaurant on the third floor.

As soon as Hachiman entered, he also noticed a lot of unfamiliar faces, but just decided to ignore them and found Hirata instead.....

Well, he’s not here now, but most of the students, that Hachiman noticed from the rooster he learnt, they are the people of Class A.

’No wonder there weren’t any empty seats, and I immediately noticed Ike’s hand calling me over...’

It turned out, that the venue was already reserved by Sakayanagi’s Class A!

It’s really amazing, how Sudo, and the others were still able to find an empty table and then sat down.

The menu is already on the table, 5 copies in total....Yamauchi, Sudo, Ike, Sotomura, and Hachiman.

Everyone can get their own.

’But, this kind of elegant restaurant, can also be a bit stressful for some people.’

“What do you want...the hell? What kind of food is this?” Not even a second was passed, after Sudo took the menu in his right hand, and just started to complain, then looked at Ike with a dumb expression.

It made his friend, Ike Kanji feel a lot of pressure, ”Maybe... pig head stew?with vanilla sauce?” It’s just, the language of this menu, is English, so this short brown-haired boy, had to translate it carefully.

However, this is actually just pork stewed with vermicelli.

”Whatever...just order anything you like!” There was also a boy, like, Yamauchi, he didn’t take this matter seriously into his heart, and just started talking rapidly, “Besides, I don’t have to pay!”

“I’m sorry, but are you ready to place the order?” It’s a Western-style restaurant, and there will be dedicated waiters to serve you, even if there is no rush, people will directly come over, then look at your body posture, and stare at the clothes, you are wearing, to make sure, if the customer is rich enough to pay.

Now that, most of the students of Class A are visiting, those workers immediately launched an attack, even if the payment, was going to be made by the School’s Chairman.

There’s nothing illegal, with making a long-time customer...

But, there are also people from Class C, making very loud noises, gaining the attention of other students.

And, not only did they look over, many rude comments were also passed....

”That’s Sudo from Class C, right? I heard that he killed someone!”

“Yeah, I also don’t know why he hasn’t been expelled from school, already!”

“Expelled? This criminal should directly be locked inside the jail!”

”But, why are the students from Class C permitted to come here?”

“You know, they were originally born in Class D.....”

“Those defects are really uneducated”

Many glances like these, full of great speculation and malice were thrown at Sudo, while passing those sarcastic rumours, about killing a boy....

There are the student of Class A, but the number count didn’t match, and Hachiman realised, there are only about 22 people.

At the same time, Kamuro-san, from whom Hachiman extorted 100,000 points before, was also not here.

On the contrary, Katsuragi and his follower Totsuka Yahiko, whom he met, during his visit to the Student council, were both present here.

’I knew before that Class A was divided.... Sakayanagi, has made her own institute, for teaching the people of her faction...’

And, even though she was grounded by her father inside her bedroom, and didn’t come to this luxury ship, for taking the exams...But, the people of Class A, are really good at splitting.

Because, if Hachiman’s ability to read the environment is correct, the students dining in this High-end Western restaurant, must be from Katsuragi’s garden, still learning how to play with blocks.

’Students from different factions don’t even pretend to eat together....’

Because, Hachiman was trying to match these unfamiliar characters, his gaze focused on the bald head of Katsuragi, who was just sitting on one side.

His movements were quite elegant, using those small Chopsticks to eat his tofu, even his expression was very calm.

’I am a steady person after all’

“I said... this is not the place for trash like you!” Only, sitting next to Katsuragi, there was a boy, with a light green, ape-like appearance, who suddenly glanced at Hachiman’s face, just loudly yelled, with a condescending and smug tone.

This is Totsuka Yahiko, who made no secret of his contempt..... especially, Hachiman who broke the school’s camera before.

”Trash like you, should just go eat hamburgers, instead hahah!” After passing a comment like that, he just started laughing.

“.....” Hachiman, who was just insulted. Although, he knew, by hanging out with Ike’s friends, he will most likely be ridiculed.

But, this situation is just unclear.

Although, there is a gap of more than 200 points between Class A and B... it’s not entirely safe either.

Katsuragi must have...no, these should have known from the start, about the real motives, behind this vacation trip....

’2 exams, then shouldn’t people of Class A, need to be more cautious regarding their vulgar actions?’

Since, they already knew...Why use this rash provocation, outright?

Can’t you see, the workers are also looking over in extreme shock?

’Or, it was arranged by Katsuragi... to test the students of Class C?’

This boy dared to fight against, Sakayanagi’s revolution...he is certainly not ordinary to have the support of 22 people, of Class A.

Only, Hachiman also wanted to be a little bad, and steal points from Katsuragi, this time....

Give a break to Kamuro-san, and let the hot tomato soup go cold, because he knew, Sakayanagi would definitely fight against Hachiman, if he really bullied her pet.

Just throw the Hammer of Justice on this boy’s face at all cost!

That’s why, he didn’t want to make her angry, just target Katsuragi, who is much easier to fight.

As a result, the other party launched the first attack.

The current provocation from Totsuka is most likely a test from his boyfriend, Katsuragi.

Because, such casual arrogance or hostility to others, are definitely not the qualities that students in Class A should have...

If that was really the case...

“.....” Hachiman, who knew his worth very well.

’Then, I should be born in Class A....’

Only, he also knew, this, Yahiko is also a big fan of Katsuragi, similar to the value, that Kamuro-san brings to Sakayanagi.

Although, he felt that Kamuro-san had quite perverted thoughts, for example stealing his egg tards, but Hachiman didn’t think, Katsuragi will keep such people around him, who may only cause danger like Yamauchi.

Therefore, he thinks that Yahiko’s current arrogant tone, is most likely a verbal exam, obviously trying to make a little fuss.
