Its now spring break, so theres not a school uniform to be seen.
When Kei arrives, answering his summons, its the same time Shiina is taking her leave.
Then Ayanokouji pretends to have forgotten what he wanted her for.

Kei, rightfully miffed, takes off.
Even if they got enough points to transfer him, hed rather Ryuuen remained his enemy than his ally.
She now trusts him implicitly, but he wont hesitate to deal the killing blow if she falls again.

Ryuuen cant believe Ayanokouji lost to Sakayanagi, and suspects it was due to something out of his control.
He also launches his best surprise attack, but Ayanokouji easily reads it and blocks.
She also knows he set Hirata right.

If she loses, she must join the student council shes been avoiding.
An impatient Kei comes to Ayanokoujis dorm, wondering what the heck has been up with him.
She also says Satou is starting to ask questions about them, and he adds that Matsushita is too.

She asks if that means he likes her, and he says he does.
Its your standard calculating Ayanokouji, seemingly simply taking his manipulation to the next level.
Dare I hope that maybe, just maybe, Ayanokoujis Grinch-like heart could grow a couple of sizes?

That he might one day experience happiness?
With Kei in his arms, it might be possible.
And yet, even when he prays that while holding her hes smiling, we see that hes not.

Clearly, he has alongway yet to go … and so, apparently, doesClassroom of the Elite.
