Chapter 861

"Brother Natsume... do you have time now?"

Natsume Chikage had just finished the last bite of lunch, picked up a tissue to wipe his mouth, and turned his head in surprise:

"Is there something?"

The female disciplinary committee member's expression was a bit complicated, and she lowered her voice and explained:

"Vice Student Council President Hanyu-senpai, and Miss Jinweitong, asked me to call you to the student council office right now."

The three girls who were eating heard this, their movements paused at the same time, and they were all stunned.

Xuecun Lingyin squinted her eyes, her gaze sharp:

"Senior Jinwei... what is she looking for Brother Natsume for again?"

Xiyuanji Qilai blinked her lively eyes, and a look of worry appeared on her face:

"How could even the Vice Student Council President want Brother Natsume to go over? Has something big happened?"

Fujiwara Kui also put down her chopsticks and asked suspiciously:

"So what exactly do they want Brother Natsume to go over for?"

"Can you say it clearly?"

Natsume Chikage also felt puzzled and asked directly:

"I also want to ask this. What exactly is the matter, do you know?"

The female disciplinary committee member shook her head, her expression a bit difficult:

"The detailed matter is more complicated to say, and... I'm not very good at explaining it here. In short, Brother Natsume, you come with me first. After you go over, Vice President Hanyu will explain it to you personally."

Natsume Chikage looked at her serious expression and thought about the involvement of the student council and himself, pondered for a moment, and nodded:

"Hmm, okay, I'll go with you."

Saying that, he started to pack up his bento box and tableware.

And Xuecun Lingyin always felt that this matter had an unusual atmosphere, and was hesitating whether to speak up and propose to go together.

Fujiwara Kui also relied on her girl's intuition to feel that this matter was weird, and also intended to speak up and ask to go together.

But at this time, Xiyuanji Qilai had already acted faster than the two girls, and was the first to raise her hand, volunteering:

"I just finished lunch, and since I have nothing to do, Brother Natsume, I'll go with you, so there can be someone to look after you."

Xuecun Lingyin and Fujiwara Kui were both stunned, clearly not expecting that Xiyuanji Qilai, who usually looked gentle and natural, would react so quickly this time, and opened her mouth before the two of them.

After Natsume Chikage heard this, he just smiled at Xiyuanji Qilai, and shook his head and refused gently but firmly:

"There's no need to make such a big fuss."

"It's probably just ordinary business."

"You guys continue your lunch break, I'll be back soon."

Saying that.

He spoke to the female disciplinary committee member who was waiting on the side:

"Let's go."

The female disciplinary committee member looked at Natsume Chikage, who was exceptionally handsome and handsome, and thinking about walking a distance with him later, her cheeks flushed, and her voice became lighter:

"Hmm... please follow me."

After saying that.

She turned and led the way, and Natsume Chikage followed.

And Xiyuanji Qilai, after being flatly refused, puffed out her cheeks slightly, clearly a bit unhappy about this result.

Fujiwara Kui heard Natsume Chikage say it so easily, so she really thought it might just be a small matter, and picked up her chopsticks again, continuing to happily "show off" the lunch she hadn't finished yet.

Only Xuecun Lingyin watched Natsume Chikage's back disappear into the corridor, her brows furrowed, and the faint sense of unease in her heart did not dissipate.

At noon, it was the time when all teachers and students in the school were resting and relaxing.

The Vice President and the student council should also be in a lunch break state.

And now, even Senior Jinwei, who basically wouldn't appear in the daily affairs of the student council, came forward... no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like "ordinary business."

Student Council Room.

The wooden door was pushed open, and Natsume Chikage followed the female disciplinary committee member into it.

The light in the room was bright, but the atmosphere was completely different from the laziness outside the door in the afternoon, revealing a serious and even tense feeling.

Natsume Chikage's gaze swept over, and he saw several familiar or familiar figures gathered in the student council room.

First was the Vice Student Council President sitting on the left of the main seat symbolizing the student council president—Hanyu Jianghui, who had a serious expression, his hands folded on the clean tabletop.

Second was Jinweitong sitting on the right of the main seat, who had an elegant and distant posture, her face expressionless, just glanced at Natsume Chikage.

There was even Zhongdao Wushi, who had had a conflict before, and he stood on the side with a complicated expression.

And several other baseball team members who had also met once, they all stood behind a tall, arrogant-looking boy with unkind expressions, clearly led by him.

This leading boy was the number one main player and ace pitcher of the baseball team—Shinohara Shingo.

And just when Natsume Chikage was quickly sizing up the situation in the room.

His gaze was involuntarily attracted by the dark brown baseball glove that Shinohara Shingo had placed on the table at will.

The surface of that glove was emitting a faint, strange light that only he could see.

【Effort Baseball Glove】

【Quality: Blue】

【Effect: When the wearer throws a baseball, power increases by 5%, ball control ability is slightly improved, and hit rate increases by 10%!】

【Introduction: For myself, I must work harder!!】

Natsume Chikage withdrew his gaze calmly, secretly surprised at the attributes of this equipment, and at the same time even more confused about the situation in front of him.

He looked at Zhongdao Wushi, who had a difficult expression, frowned, and asked directly:

"Zhongdao-senpai... is it you looking for me again this time?"

Zhongdao Wushi heard this, his expression became even more complicated, he shook his head, and denied in a low voice:

"No. Since I have publicly lost to you last time and made a promise in public, I naturally won't do that kind of thing of breaking my promise and going back on my word."

"So you misunderstood, this matter this time did not come from my will."

"As for specifically why... you ask Vice President Hanyu and Miss Jinwei clearly later, and you will naturally understand."

Natsume Chikage turned his gaze to Hanyu Jianghui and Jinweitong sitting in front.

"Then, what exactly is the matter that you two specifically called me over for?"

Hanyu Jianghui saw that Jinweitong had no intention of explaining first, so he adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose, his gaze behind the lenses became sharp and steady, and he said in a deep voice:

"Brother Natsume, this matter this time was indeed not initiated or led by Zhongdao-tongxue."

"But, it doesn't mean it has nothing to do with him, or rather, with the baseball team he is in."

Natsume Chikage became more confused as he listened.

"Can you say it more directly and clearly?"

Shinohara Shingo had a height almost the same as Natsume Chikage, only one or two centimeters shorter.

Also because Natsume Chikage's physique was far beyond his peers, he was about the same as this Shinohara Shingo who often exercised.

Only to see Shinohara Shingo stand up directly, and the chair legs made a harsh sound when rubbing against the ground.

He walked to Natsume Chikage with big strides, his eyes full of undisguised hostility.

"Hmph, let me, the person involved, say it!" Shinohara Shingo snorted coldly, his tone unkind as he began to explain, "Before, you publicly challenged and won against our baseball team's number two main player Zhongdao Wushi in front of so many people in school, right?"

Natsume Chikage frowned slightly and admitted frankly:

"Yes, so what?"

Shinohara Shingo let out a sneer from his nostrils, and then took out a stack of printed papers from his pocket and slapped them heavily on the table between the two.

"Don't you know how much huge trouble and damage your behavior has brought to our private Moonlight Academy and our baseball team's reputation?!"

Natsume Chikage tilted his head slightly, his expression still calm:

"I don't understand what you are talking about."

Shinohara Shingo sneered repeatedly, pointing at the printed papers with his finger fiercely:

"Can't understand? Then open your eyes and look carefully!"

Natsume Chikage looked down, and it was several screenshots from forums and social media pages, densely packed with various comments from people from other schools or anonymous users.

【Is this private Moonlight baseball team so bad? I heard that the pitcher main player was beaten by that Natsume Chikage who plays shogi?】

【A baseball team that can be beaten by a 'weak scholar' who plays shogi, you can imagine how trashy it is.】

【A baseball team that can't even beat a weak chicken who plays shogi, in my opinion, this baseball team can just disband, don't go out and lose face!】 ===== CHAPTER 862 =====
