Summary[]

While Hiyori and Albert were waiting in the corner, they could hear the voices of Ayanokōji and Ishizaki coming towards them. They had planned to make Ayanokōji join them for the uninhabited island survival test, an idea by Ishizaki they had accepted.

When she and Albert appeared before him, he was surprised by the members that were present there and thinking it wasn't a place to hold a conversation, Ayanokōji proposed to move elsewhere but Ishizaki, the one who had planned this meeting, hadn't thought anything about it. Feeling a sense of foreboding, Ayanokōji quickly tried to take his leave but Hiyori and Albert who didn't want him to leave grabbed a hand each in a tight grip.

Even though she knew Ayanokōji wouldn't accept their proposal even if they used forceful methods. she encouraged Ishizaki's plan because she wanted an excuse to meet with him. Wanting to spend some time together with him even if was just a second, she put a little more force in her embrace.
