Chapter 130

Kitakami Yoru quickly found his math score: 37 points.

It was very close to what Yukinoshita Yukino had estimated.

Progress, huh~

Kitakami Yoru chuckled lightly.

A while later, Hiratsuka Shizuka came in to take control of the situation.

The classroom instantly quieted down.

Looking at Hiratsuka Shizuka on the podium, who was speaking incessantly about summer vacation precautions, Kitakami Yoru began to worry again.

"What should I give?"

"I really have no clue. Skincare products?"

Kitakami Yoru glanced sideways at Miura Yumiko, who was playing with her phone.

Ten-odd minutes passed.

The group, led by Hiratsuka Shizuka, headed to the auditorium.

They sat down according to their previous positions.

After waiting boredly for a while, the principal of Shuchiin, Adolf, took the stage to speak, encouraging the students and teachers.

He talked about the changes at Shuchiin this semester.

In fact, the true controller behind Shuchiin was the Shinomiya Zaibatsu!

Kitakami Yoru listened boredly, his mind already wandering far away.

Subsequently, the Student Council President gave a brief speech, summarizing the work.

Then, they began to distribute awards to the students of the Shuchiin High School division who had performed excellently this semester.

Was this award useful?

It was actually very useful, especially for those who didn't intend to advance to Shuchiin's university division, Imperial College.

For those who wanted to go outside to study at Tokyo University, Kyoto University, or Chiba University, it was useful within Japan.

Fujiwara Chika, the Student Council Secretary, presented the symbolic awards.

The auditorium's projection screen also played an MV, and solemn music began to play.

First year...

"Second year, tied for first place: Yukinoshita Yukino, Shirogane Miyuki; second place: Shinomiya Kaguya..."

Kitakami Yoru, who was so bored he was about to doze off, stood straight up.

He stared at the stage, under the spotlight.

"Congratulations, President..."

Shinomiya Kaguya and Shirogane Miyuki stood together, smiling lightly as they congratulated each other.

"Thank you, Shinomiya, though it's tied with Yukinoshita Yukino again; the scores are exactly the same."

Shirogane Miyuki answered Shinomiya Kaguya behind him while looking toward the stage.

Don't let Shinomiya Kaguya's light smile fool you; she was extremely unconvinced inside...

Ah ah ah ah!

Pressed down by the President again.

Yukinoshita Yukino came up from the other side with the third-place winner to receive their awards.

Fujiwara Chika presented these four with gold, silver, and bronze Shuchiin badges.

The ceremony was full of meaning; this actually helped people grow quickly.

Subsequently, they read the names of students ranked third to twentieth who had good grades.

Kitakami Yoru heard a familiar name: Aoyama Nanami and a boy were tied for thirteenth.

Miura Yumiko was boredly blowing a bubble with her gum, glancing at Kitakami Yoru beside her.

A minute or two later, thunderous applause rang out.

"Third year, first place: Koyasu Tsubame; second place: Kasumigaoka Utaha..."

When Fujiwara Chika's voice fell, the area where the third-year students were sitting was in an uproar, all turning their heads to look at the two people sitting at the very front of a certain class.

"Second? Utaha, you?!"

Koyasu Tsubame, who was ranked first, was even more shocked than Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was ranked second.

Since the first year, Kasumigaoka Utaha had firmly occupied the first-place spot in every exam.

Not once, not even a single time, had she fallen from it.

At most, it was a tie.

"I was affected by some things; this semester hasn't gone smoothly. Congratulations to you."

Kasumigaoka Utaha seemed to have expected this result, sincerely congratulating Koyasu Tsubame.

"Is it about the stalking?"

Koyasu Tsubame asked worriedly.

Her relationship with Kasumigaoka Utaha had always been good.

Not quite best friends who talked about everything.

But they were very good friends.

"Yeah... and my light novel, it's not going smoothly either; the latest volume's sales response hasn't been good."

Kasumigaoka Utaha squeezed out a smile, pulling Koyasu Tsubame up to receive the award.

Both were beautiful, talented, and virtuous.

When they took the stage, as the spotlight hit them, the area below, including the first and second-year students, erupted in a roar.

"Koyasu Tsubame-senpai is so pretty..."

"Kasumigaoka Utaha-senpai is even better, I like her so much; if only she could be my girlfriend..."

"Bullshit, would she ever look at you? Baka..."

"Senpai, please go out with me..."

The auditorium instantly became noisy and unbearable because of Kasumigaoka Utaha and Koyasu Tsubame's appearance.

Countless students were jeering.

Among them, there was no lack of sons of this president, that department head, or this banker.

Any one of them, if placed in the world, would have an affluent family background, be respected, and be someone ordinary people could only look up to.

"Heh."

In the corner, Aki Tomoya pushed up his glasses, feeling incredibly proud.

These people could only look, but Kasumigaoka Utaha-senpai, whom they couldn't get, liked him!

Aki Tomoya was very reassured; Kasumigaoka Utaha would only like him, and like Eriri, she was indifferent to handsome guys.

Handsome guys with good family backgrounds couldn't move Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Could a disgusting fat otaku do it?

Aki Tomoya inexplicably thought of Kitakami Yoru and sneered coldly.

"Kasumigaoka Utaha..."

Kitakami Yoru leaned back in the comfortable chair, squinting his eyes.

The next golden treasure chest, the best target to open, was undoubtedly Kasumigaoka Utaha.

Shinomiya Kaguya, most impossible.

Hayasaka Ai, not familiar, no chance.

Kirisu Mafuyu, teacher, inappropriate, no chance.

Instead, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had misunderstood him and wanted him to drop out, was suitable.

Striving to open the golden treasure chest first, then getting revenge, was the best choice.

"Sigh~"

"Let's lose weight during summer vacation first~"

Kitakami Yoru sighed and withdrew his gaze.

"Hey..."

Miura Yumiko spoke up suddenly.

Kitakami Yoru immediately cast a questioning look.

"Do you have any small denomination yen bills or coins? I'll exchange them for large bills, is that okay?"
