"Horikita, do you have any friends in your class?"
Shiki Natsu glanced at Horikita Suzune. Though he didn't say it out loud, he felt that with her personality, it was probably impossible for her to have any friends.
"I don't need such things!"
Horikita Suzune said directly, her face cold. Only the weak would huddle together for warmth.
It had to be said, from a certain perspective, Horikita Suzune and Sakayanagi Arisu were quite similar.
And it was precisely because of this similarity that Shiki Natsu couldn't help but want to tease them.
"Wouldn't your brother in the Student Council cry for you if you're like this?"
Shiki Natsu suddenly thought of this and said it quite smoothly.
Hearing this, Horikita Suzune's body couldn't help but stiffen for a mont.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Horikita Suzune frowned. Her brother was always a lofty person; he definitely wouldn't need such useless interpersonal relationships!
"I was rejected. They said I didn't et the standard. Ichinose Honami from Class B was also rejected."
Just then, Katsuragi Kouhei sent Shiki Natsu a ssage.
Katsuragi Kouhei was rejected?
No matter what, Katsuragi Kouhei was a Class A student. And since this school assigned classes based on students' abilities, if a Class A student wasn't qualified, then students from other classes would have even less of a chance.
Ichinose Honami was quite skilled at handling interpersonal relationships; she should have been a very important asset to the Student Council, right? The Student Council would surely have to handle relationships between students, so Ichinose Honami's inclusion should have been no problem.
Of course, Shiki Natsu had never joined the Student Council either, so he had no idea what its standards were.
"Were all the applicants rejected this ti?"
Shiki Natsu quickly replied.
"Yes, it seems so."
"Your brother really is strict. I heard he rejected everyone who applied to join the Student Council this ti."
Shiki Natsu turned to look at Horikita Suzune. If Horikita Suzune were the student council president, Shiki Natsu felt she would also reject most people directly.
What should he say?
Like brother, like sister?
"Of course. Not everyone can stand alongside my brother."
Hearing this, Horikita Suzune couldn't help but feel a surge of confidence.
"What about you?"
Shiki Natsu's words left Horikita Suzune speechless for a mont. This guy was even worse at conversation than she was!
"I plan to go see the student council president after school. Do you want to co along?"
Shiki Natsu looked at the hesitant Horikita Suzune and spoke slowly. Bringing Horikita Suzune along might be helpful.
"I..."
Hearing this, Horikita Suzune was clearly flustered. Was she afraid of her brother?
But... after thinking about it, Shiki Natsu realized it was indeed a possibility.
After all, Horikita Manabu was in Class A, while his own sister was in Class D. Wouldn't that make her a disappointing sister?
Of course, judging by Horikita Suzune's reaction, she probably still didn't believe that this school assigned classes based on students' overall abilities, right? She just felt she couldn't possibly be in Class D.
"You've been at this school for a few days, and you haven't seen your brother?"
Shiki Natsu gave Horikita Suzune a surprised look. Could it be she hadn't even gotten her brother's contact information yet?
What kind of man-eating tiger was Horikita Manabu to make Horikita Suzune so afraid?
"Not yet..."
Horikita Suzune's tone was a bit low. Shiki Natsu hadn't expected the previously high-and-mighty Horikita Suzune to show a side of inferiority when her brother was ntioned. It was truly a rare sight.
"Did you co to this school for your brother?"
Shiki Natsu continued to ask. The Horikita Suzune before him didn't seem as simple as she appeared on the surface.
"Yes."
Horikita Suzune nodded lightly. She felt her mind was a ss right now. She hadn't wanted to answer Shiki Natsu's question, but because her mind was in such chaos, she answered subconsciously.
"Then why not see him?"
"I..."
Horikita Suzune felt a little annoyed. She wanted to give a reason but couldn't co up with one.
"You don't have the courage to face your brother alone?"
Shiki Natsu suddenly rembered that if the eldest son in a family was too outstanding, it would put a lot of pressure on the younger siblings. Perhaps Horikita Suzune was struggling with this now.
Horikita Suzune fell silent. It seed his guess was correct.
"Do you want to see your brother?"
"I do, but...."
Horikita Suzune wanted to state her reason, but the confusion in her mind made her unable to speak, and her words trailed off.
"Then there's no problem. After school, I'll go with you. I also want to see how high this student council president's recruitnt standards are."
Shiki Natsu nodded and invited Horikita Suzune. If he brought the student council president's sister, he might get a nice CG.
Of course, Shiki Natsu wasn't a cold person; he just wanted to help a sister and brother et.
"If you don't agree, I'll still go. I just don't know if you'll have the courage to go see the president alone later."
Shiki Natsu spoke again.
"I'll go."
Horikita Suzune's delicate face was filled with struggle and confusion, but it quickly turned to determination. She might be a bit behind her brother now, but she would definitely catch up to him. She wanted to tell him that she was working hard too!
Shiki Natsu thought about Kushida Kikyou, who had requested a eting at the coffee shop today. Delaying it a little should be fine. Who knows, they might get kicked out as soon as they go to see Horikita Manabu.
"Then check for my ssage later."
Shiki Natsu nodded. The two of them had reached the academic area and had to return to their respective classes. Shiki Natsu planned to bring Horikita Suzune to the coffee shop after their eting was over.
Hopefully, Kushida Kikyou would be well-prepared. Otherwise, he'd have to collect so interest from her.
His help was never free.
"Okay."
Horikita Suzune nodded and left, touching her forehead as she walked away, looking a little unwell.
So this is Mind Interference? The effect is quite good. Shiki Natsu was quite satisfied with what he saw.
Logically, Horikita Suzune probably would have chosen to avoid the topic or just told him to shut up when he probed further.
I should try it on Sakayanagi Arisu next ti. Only by experinting more can Shiki Natsu know the specific effects of this ability.
In any case, it only interferes for twenty minutes. Sakayanagi Arisu seems to know a lot; maybe he can get so information out of her, like her relationship with the Chairman.
Maybe he can gain so advantages outside of this school's rules....
