Chapter 177: What a tangled web!

【Natsume Chikage】【Xiyuanji Qilai】【Xuecun Lingyin】

The three of them sat together.

"Natsume-kun, I don't seem to see Senior Tsukishima. Isn't she supposed to perform on stage?"

Xiyuanji Qilai looked around with a face full of curiosity.

Xuecun Lingyin asked in confusion:

"You know this senior?"

Xiyuanji Qilai smiled:

"I do, we chatted a bit last time."

"Natsume-kun, didn't you just say you were helping out here at the gymnasium? Do you know where Senior Tsukishima Rin is now?"

Natsume Chikage hadn't found Tsukishima Rin either, so he made a slight deduction.

"Most likely she's preparing backstage at the gymnasium."

Xiyuanji Qilai pondered:

"I see."

At this moment.

The school leaders, noticing that students from every class had arrived at the scene, began the opening ceremony.

However, the person who took the stage first this time was not the originally scheduled Principal Yajima Yugoro, but Vice Principal Kawai Akisuke.

After all, this segment had always been started by the principal since the beginning.

Why had it become the vice principal now?

Where did the principal go?

Even if the principal wasn't there, it should have been the school board director.

Vice Principal Kawai Akisuke swallowed hard, walked onto the stage somewhat nervously, and his gaze couldn't help but glance at Mitang Zhiji.

Finding that she was also looking in his direction, his heart skipped a beat, and the cold sweat on his forehead increased.

Kawai Akisuke hurriedly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, then spoke in a low, heavy tone to the students, delivering the opening ceremony congratulatory speech.

Fortunately, the principal's draft was left on the stage, so he finally finished steadily, then let the freshman representative—Shankou Botai—take the stage to speak.

And after stepping down.

The bald math teacher pulled Vice Principal Kawai Akisuke aside and asked in confusion:

"Where is the principal? Wasn't he supposed to do this today?"

The cold sweat on Kawai Akisuke's forehead increased, and he feigned severity:

"The principal suddenly had something come up at his hometown... he went back to his hometown for a trip!"

The bald math teacher looked confused: ===== CHAPTER 178 =====
