Going up to the Student Council, just like last Friday, I was t with all of the mbers sitting around the long table.
With the Vice President’s ugly expression rearing at the front, I bowed and apologized for arriving last.
At the side, the couple of Treasurer and Secretary seed like there’s so sort of distance between them. Lover’s quarrel?
Well, I had no idea and I couldn’t get myself to care.
Shizu’s elbows were on the table with her chin on her joined hands, invoking so kind of serious atmosphere.
Her slightly narrowed eyes were enough to tell that... I shouldn’t say anything and just go to my place behind her.
“Now that everyone’s here. Let’s start.”
Relieving her hands and arms, Shizu straightened her back as she began the Student Council eting for today.
Like always, she’s now letting them talk first about the work she delegated to them.
However, as if the previous takedowns weren’t enough, the Vice President threw a murderous glare first before stating his case.
“President, he’s always late, can’t we do sothing about it?”
“Rejected, next?”
Even though I couldn’t see it, I could clearly imagine Shizu rolling her eyes at him.
“Huh?! That’s a valid complaint. Why are you rejecting it?”
As it turns out, he’s probably determined to get out of this Student Council. Perhaps, he already noticed that I was always under Shizu’s favor. If he knew that our relationship was more than just what we’re showing outside, he’d probably make quite a scene.
If that happened, I guess roughing him up would be in order.
“Is this eting about your complaints, Vice President?”
With that kind of response, the idiot appeared as if he choked on sothing as his rage deflated to nothingness.
“...No, it is not.”
Not minding him anymore, Shizu switched her gaze to the couple, or specifically, to Watanabe.
“Treasurer, tell , is your data gathering for every club budget already accounted for? Does it co with receipts?”
“Uh... Not yet, President. So claid to have lost their receipts while so claid they lost the money itself.”
“Mark those clubs and send them again for our next Club Budget Appropriation.” After saying that, she then turned her head to the guy next to Watanabe. “Secretary, I don’t think I still need to ask.”
“Y-yes! I received reports from the Clubs you visited last week. They’re all here.”
“What about the Baseball Club? Did they complain about sothing?”
The Baseball Club, huh? Last Friday, we went there because soone destroyed one of their pitching machines. And the culprit was that two non-regular mbers who I couldn’t rember the nas of anymore. Furthermore, although they destroyed it, Shizu and I suspected that they’re ordered to do so.
And that led to a confrontation against their Captain, the shaved head guy who I didn’t even bother asking for his na. He’s apparently a third-year. Because of so disagreents and the heated situation wherein he couldn’t control himself from the accusations being thrown at him, I had no choice but to put him to sleep.
I didn’t throw a punch or a kick, of course. I just grappled him and choked him for a while. The whole Baseball Club as well as their coach watched that event.
Now that I think of it... One of our classmates, who's not part of Ogawa or Fukuda's group, wasn’t among those laughing at when I arrived. He’s probably the mber of the Baseball Club from our class.
He’s afraid of , huh? Anyway, if I could infer from how the incident didn’t spread into a rumor, that shaved head captain probably suppressed it when he woke up from his sleep.
Last week, Shizu wrote her report and submitted it to the Administration. Since the weekend passed, it’s probably still at the desk and hadn’t been read yet.
“Uh... No, they haven’t sent in a report. I heard... sothing happened last week.” The Secretary answered as he flipped the papers in front of him before cautiously asking.
It seed that the news about it was truly suppressed that even the mbers of the Student Council had no idea of what truly transpired.
Does that shaved head have so background? If that’s the case... then, he’s possibly a spoiled guy who thought he could get away from ordering a pitching machine to be destroyed.
But even if he had so background, there’s no definite reason for why he had the two mbers of his club destroy the machine.
Until now, it’s baffling about the motive. He’s definitely the culprit after all. Or if there’s so powerplay going on behind their club, soone was trying to oust that shaved head captain from his seat... Mhm... That’s a plausible explanation.
“Don’t pry on it. If they sent a report, imdiately relay it to . I will go back there tomorrow.”
Upon hearing her words, I couldn’t help but open my mouth to ask. “Wait, President. Alone?”
I don’t have Student Council duty tomorrow. Why not today when I am here with her? This girl... is she trying to resolve it without my help?
“Yes, is there sothing wrong?” Shizu lifted her head and asked without any change in her expression.
“No. But don’t you need an aide? I will not be here tomorrow.”
“That’s fine. I’m the Student Council President. They can flaunt their status but they’re still under my authority.” Shizu confidently answered.
Yeah, right... I still rembered how she’s shaking last Friday. This girl, I better have a talk with her later.
Anyway, since she appeared confident with her words and I would probably not be able to change her mind during this eting, I closed my mouth and stopped responding.
From around us, I could see the three other mbers staring at with a hint of surprise on their faces, especially Watanabe the Treasurer. Before my eyes passed by her, her lips had a slight smile on them as if what she just watched was entertaining.
Nonetheless, it’s not like I could call her out for that.
“Moving on... What about you, Vice President?”
After a few seconds of silence, Shizu continued with the eting and turned to the guy she silenced earlier.
After gulping down a few mouthfuls of his own saliva, Inugaki the Vice President answered.
“... So clubs still haven’t submitted who their advisor is. That’s including that club you’re using to outsource so of our work.”
Club Advisors, huh? Now that I think of it... Who’s the Club Advisor of the Literature Club, Book Club and Poem Appreciation Club? No, forget the last two since I probably hadn’t run into them.
I better ask Ishida-senpai about this tomorrow. Even if they only put down their nas on it, they should at least provide guidance once in a while, right?
“I see. Then, let hear your suggestions for the issues raised by what you just told ...” Shizu nodded as she returned to her earlier pose, resting her chin on her hand.
And while they started putting out their ideas and suggestions, I moved away from their table and went to the corner to brew tea.
I still rembered Shizu’s words last Friday, she’ll bring sowhere. And that would probably happen after their eting and when the three SC mbers leave the room to do their jobs.
