This coaching is not right.

On the other side, Ito Sawa sat in the central room, intently scanning the students around him.

Since there is a mandatory requirement to guess the details, he doesn't plan to score in these three rounds. Instead, he will take advantage of the larger strategic space of negative points to find out the details at a lower cost.

The previously speculated group details were groups of two, three, four, five, six, nine, and thirteen.

To be honest, it's almost the same as being uncertain.

However, after three rounds, the detailed rules for grouping can be basically determined. Because each grouping results in a difference between odd and even numbers.

To avoid the chance of odd or even numbers happening by chance, it is best to try only two possibilities at a time.

If you really want to try the third option, you must ensure that the difference in quantity between the three is large enough.

Suspicious of Sakayanagi's decision to set up groups of three or more, he decided to use this round to test the two-person and three-person groups.

He already had a clear plan in mind, but he didn't show any emotional fluctuations on his face. He simply calmly began to assign groups.

"Kamuro, you'll be in a group alone." Itō Sawa's voice was calm and clear, without the slightest hesitation.

He understood that the solo team would lose a point, but compared to the two points deducted from Kamuro if he were assigned to another team, this was a relatively safe choice.

Next, he continued to issue instructions: "Ichinose and Tsukasagi are in one group, Kanzaki and Hashimoto are in another group."

The arrangement of these two pairs was intended to test whether Sakayanagi had set up any rules prohibiting pairs.

On the other hand, if Sakayanagi also imposed restrictions on who could not join the group, then Ichinose and Kanzaki would be her most likely candidates.

At the same time, out of concern about the school's lack of restrictions on "patients," it would be better to have them watched over separately if possible.

He believed that even if the rules were suddenly changed and they were forced to fight, Ichinose and Kanzaki would be able to completely suppress Tsukasa and Hashimoto respectively.

For the remaining personnel, Ito Sawa quickly made arrangements: "Mashima-sensei, Chahashi-sensei, and Katsuragi in one group; Shibata, Ando, ​​and Hoshinomiya-sensei in one group; and Amakura, Sakagami-sensei, and Kito in one group."

This way, the teacher's team assignments can be determined, and the number of three-person teams is sufficient to create an odd-even difference with the number of two-person teams.

Upon hearing Ito Sawa's instructions, the students in the room quickly sprang into action, taking their assigned positions according to their assigned groups.

The students in Class B—Ichinose, Amakura, Kanzaki, Shibata, and Ando—exchanged glances, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes.

Ito Sawa's group changes were indeed somewhat unexpected, but everyone quietly complied and quickly joined their respective groups.

Ichinose and Kanzaki, each in their respective pairs, frowned slightly, seemingly deep in thought, but showed no intention of communicating with their Class A counterparts. Amakura and Kito also remained silent.

Meanwhile, Shibata and Ando, ​​this pair of lively characters, stood in front of Hoshinomiya-sensei in accordance with Ito Sawa's group assignment.

Shibata tugged at Ando's sleeve impatiently and asked softly, "Sayono, do you know why Ito Sawa suddenly changed his approach? Didn't you say his method was pretty good before?" He frowned, a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Ando rolled his eyes, tilted his head slightly, glanced at Shibata, and teased softly, "Do you know?"

Although she had some guesses in her mind, she wasn't quite sure. Besides, Shibata was so impatient; if he shouted it out and the people in Class A heard it, it would be troublesome. So she pretended not to know.

Shibata scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "I don't know, that's why I'm asking you."

Ando casually shrugged: "So, I don't know either."

Having been a couple for so long, Shibata could still discern some of Ando's reactions.

Ando clearly knew something, but refused to tell himself.

However, Shibata wasn't about to give up so easily. He pursed his lips, turned to Hoshinomiya-sensei, and asked in a low but urgent voice, "Sensei, you're so smart, you must know why Itosawa suddenly changed the group assignments, right?"

Ms. Hoshinomiya had been simply standing aside, smiling as she watched Ando and Shibata flirting, a nostalgic look flashing in her eyes, as if she had been transported back to a familiar memory.

However, when Shibata suddenly turned to her, asking urgently about the reason for the group change, Hoshinomiya-sensei instantly snapped out of her reverie. She quickly put away her nostalgic expression, adopted a nonchalant one, and deliberately drew out her words in a lighthearted, teasing tone: "Eh, eh, little Shibata is asking me? I don't know."

Shibata wanted to press for more information, but Ando had already moved slightly to stand between him and Hoshinomiya-sensei, and gently tugged at Shibata's ear.

Her movements were not forceful, yet they carried an undeniable air of authority.

She said softly, "Shibata, stand still! Don't disturb the teacher." Although there was a hint of reproach in her words, her tone was gentle, as if she were scolding a naughty child.

Shibata pouted slightly, stood obediently, and looked a little aggrieved. "Sayo, you don't call me Sasa."

Ando's expression of disgust deepened: "It's not as good as Shibata's, I won't call her that."

As Hoshinomiya-sensei watched their interaction, her smile widened, feeling incredibly fortunate to have been chosen for this class.

The students in Class A stood in their respective groups. Although they did not communicate directly, the curiosity and speculation in their eyes were obvious.

Some of them slightly raised their chins, a hint of arrogance in their eyes; others lowered their heads in thought, seemingly pondering Ito Sawa's intentions in making this arrangement. The atmosphere in the room was thick with tension and anticipation.

Ito Sawa ignored the discussions of his classmates and focused solely on his own strategy.

As the students took their positions as instructed by Ito Sawa, the room fell silent.

Everyone waited quietly for the broadcast results, a tense atmosphere filling the air.

Ito Sawa closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down.

After the group assignments were completed, Machida-sensei's voice quickly came over the loudspeaker: "Chabashira-sensei, Hoshinomiya-sensei, and Amakura have been 'killed'."

After hearing the result, Chabashira-sensei and Hoshinomiya-sensei nodded slightly, calmly stepped forward, and waited for the lights to shine on them.

Netkura nodded directly to Ito Sawa with a hint of relief in his eyes, then walked out of the room and stood at the door.

On the screen outside the room, the changing colors of scores and names drew everyone's attention.

Kamuro's name is marked in green, Hashimoto's name is marked in red, Kanzaki and Ichinose's names are both in green, and Shiki's name is also displayed in green.

Mashima-sensei and Katsuragi-sensei's names were marked in red, while Chabashira-sensei's name first lit up in green, but quickly dimmed before lighting up again.

Shibata and Ando's names are marked in red, while Hoshinomiya-sensei's name is displayed in green.

The name "Netware" initially lit up in green, but then slowly dimmed, eventually blending into the screen background. The names of Kito and Sakagami-sensei were marked in red.
