Chapter 31: What Does a Rich Young Lady's Dog Even Eat?
The Student Council is right next to the Athens Philosophy Research Club, with people constantly coming and going.
However, it doesn't affect Qingshan Li and the others, because they spend most of their time not in the club, but running all over the place.
They knocked, and after receiving a response, the two entered.
As before, four long tables surrounded to form a frame that was neither a square nor a rectangle.
The black-haired, fair-skinned beautiful witch Miyase Yaeko sat at the head, a plaque hanging behind her reading: Student Council Headquarters.
A courtroom-like scene was unfolding before their eyes.
"I absolutely disagree! The Unknown Exploration Club has existed in this school for six years; on what grounds do you demote it to an Interest Group!"
Miyase Yaeko studied with pen in hand, not even lifting her head.
Whether it was the Vice President or the secretary Yuko, she pushed up her glasses and said, "According to school rules, the Student Council has the right to judge based on a club's activity status and achievements; may I ask, has the Unknown Exploration Club had any achievements to date?"
"Not all scientific research yields results; does that mean it shouldn't be done!"
Qingshan Li, a member of the Citizen Jury, expressed agreement.
Eight billion people; there must be room for a few thousand, tens of thousands to dream, to do absolutely impossible things.
"Don't talk science with me; I'm talking school rules." Yuko said.
"School rules? Aren't school club activities meant to let students freely develop their interests and hobbies!"
Exactly, exactly.
"School funding is limited."
"If there's no money, allocate less; why judge us as unqualified!"
That makes perfect sense.
The Unknown Exploration Club member continued: "Parents raise children without knowing their future; getting into Tokyo University doesn't guarantee achievement; so do parents stop letting children go to school because of that? I demand the Student Council revoke its previous ruling!"
If a vote is needed, the Yaken Club will definitely support you!
"Drag him out." Miyase Yaeko suddenly said.
Two men seized the Unknown Exploration Club member and dragged him outside.
"I won't give up! I'll protest to the school!"
How pitiful.
"Aliens definitely exist! I'll build a gate to another world! Magic is real! I'll turn stone to gold, I'll become an immortal!"
Ex·e·cute·him!
Insulting the Student Council is one thing, but daring to deceive the Citizen Jury's emotions!
Be honest with the people!
Moreover, even if there's only a sliver of possibility, Qingshan Li doesn't want anyone researching this kind of topic; his Reincarnator identity must remain secret.
If a beautiful girl worth billions, and a virgin at that, told him: "You don't want your Reincarnator identity exposed, do you?"
He would marry her through tears.
—That's how much he doesn't want people to know he's a Reincarnator.
"You two," Yuko pushed up her frames, large eyes looking at Mikami Ai, "what business do you have?"
Above, Miyase Yaeko interlaced her fingers, propping her chin; even seated, she looked down on them from a height.
Fair skin, black hair falling to her waist, a bewitching, gorgeous beauty, yet giving a sense of danger akin to fear.
"Heard the Student Council is inspecting clubs; we want to help." Mikami Ai's words were always crisp and decisive.
"You? Help?" Yuko doubted.
"We'll take charge of the club assessments; the Student Council and News Club's public notice can credit 'Athens Philosophy Research Club'."
Voluntarily shouldering the blame does have a certain temptation.
"Not needed." But Yuko refused without hesitation, "This is the Student Council's job, and I don't trust you — don't trust your ability, and don't think you can fully assess according to the Student Council's standards."
"Mikami Ai, what do you want to do?" At this, Miyase Yaeko spoke with interest.
Yuko stepped back, like a stone statue turning back to stone.
Mikami Ai crossed her arms and answered: "Compared to thinking, I value action more, and assessing each club can become a way for us to research Athens Philosophy."
"Speak the truth."
"This is the truth."
"I heard," Miyase Yaeko's tone was casual, "that in Shinkawa, because of club activities with the Kiyono Family's child, it led to some officials being dismissed, even imprisoned?"
Qingshan Li's gaze flicked to Mikami Ai.
No wonder she became a material collection target; her experience is extraordinary; I need to be careful.
He really doesn't want to be expelled.
Come to think of it, what exactly did she and her friends do to get officials dismissed?
"That's a misunderstanding." Mikami Ai answered, "Observation results I won't take out of school; it must be that Mari returned home, chatting about school anecdotes while eating with her family, and unintentionally leaked it."
"Mari told me it was you, chatting about school anecdotes while eating with your family, and unintentionally leaked it."
"My family only has money, nothing else; how could it get officials dismissed? Mari is completely different from her mother; she's a girl who likes to tell lies with a straight face."
Qingshan Li felt Mikami Ai was underestimating herself too much.
"Say what you will." Miyase Yaeko didn't care, "Anyway, to get the qualification to review clubs, first prove it to me — Game Club, hand over the review results to me before school ends tomorrow."
"Okay." Mikami Ai replied.
"The review process is also important; to prevent you from covering for them, and to prevent you from doing bad things and ruining the Student Council's reputation, therefore, the Student Council will dispatch a Supervisor to oversee and guide you throughout."
"The Athens Philosophy Research Club has its own review standards."
No, that's just your personal standard, not the whole Athens Philosophy Research Club's.
Miyase Yaeko's expression turned slightly cold.
"Are you trying to help the Student Council with its work, or are you using the Student Council's name to do your own thing?"
"I will ensure absolute fairness." Mikami Ai showed no weakness.
"Does that mean your fairness is truly absolute fairness?" Miyase Yaeko found it amusing, appearing all the more bewitching and charming, "So I ask you, Miss Fairness, should your club exist?"
Before the novel is written, the Athens Philosophy Research Club cannot fall.
Mikami Ai might not need help, but Qingshan Li still couldn't help but speak up: "How about we wait until after tomorrow's assessment of the Game Club? Then we can find a way both sides can accept?"
"Since Qingshan put it that way, let's do it that way." Miyase Yaeko was unexpectedly straightforward.
Qingshan Li was bewildered.
He and Miyase Yaeko were not close.
Even with his absurd nonsense and thick skin about "Mikami Ai likes me," at most one could say: Miyase Yaeko was his childhood fiancée whom he had never met.
They were just that not close.
"I see, now I know your relationship." Mikami Ai suddenly said.
"What do you know?" Qingshan Li subconsciously asked.
"A little girl sees a little dog by the roadside, but her family doesn't allow keeping one, so she secretly raises it near her home while waiting to grow up, and once she can make her own decisions, she takes the dog home—you are that dog."
"That's what I mean, but I can't say such things." Miyase Yaeko rested her chin on her left hand, looking at Qingshan Li and smiling.
Yuko pushed up her glasses, gazing at Qingshan Li.
Hair that hadn't been cut for some time, messily arranged just right, as if carefully styled by a hairdresser;
Bright, spirited eyes, handsome and elegant features;
Girls in the same classroom who could see him would definitely look at him twice every class;
Girls who couldn't see him would also take the opportunity to look at him when handing out test papers or when the teacher walked to the back row;
In short, he was a charming young man, except for a slightly pale complexion.
It was only natural that the president would favor him.
"Then it's settled." Mikami Ai said, "Before school ends tomorrow, we will bring the Game Club's assessment results over."
Miyase Yaeko looked down on her, casually pointing her right hand at her: "In Shinkawa I can't manage you, but in Kaiming you'd better behave."
"I never do anything against school rules." Mikami Ai laughed as if amused, "Goodbye, Classmate Miyase."
Mikami Ai left the Student Council, and Qingshan Li followed behind.
"I thought you would refute me, do you really want to be a dog?" She asked Qingshan Li curiously.
【Campus Mystery, Main Ability is Beauty: 92.7%】
【Campus Romance Daily Life: 74%, 75%】
This was why Qingshan Li didn't speak.
When money fell from the sky, compared to shouting and cheering to vent emotions, he was the type to stuff more money into his mouth.
Now nothing was falling, what was picked up had gone into his pocket, and he was about to speak.
"I will work hard to learn Kendo." Qingshan Li was serious.
"The reason?" Mikami Ai asked with a smile.
She had a feeling Qingshan Li's answer would be interesting.
"That's the only legal and compliant way to hit you with a stick."
As expected.
Qingshan Li was an interesting person, very likely to cause her trouble in the future, and was someone worth cultivating.
