"So, what does my sister think I'm going to do under the snow?"

After a moment's hesitation, I reacted quickly. Yui-sama's question was very interesting, and although it seemed to be to the point, it didn't really say anything, whether it was what she knew, or what she guessed about me, maybe even it was just a kind of deception to get me to confess, so the best way to do it was to throw the question back.

"Kowa," Yui-sama's brow twitched quickly, "don't always avoid my topic. ”

"I didn't avoid the topic of my sister, I just thought it was strange, why did Sister Yui think I might do something under the snow. ”

"Well, how can I put it, an intuition—or a sixth sense?"

"If that's the reason, I can choose not to answer, right? Intuition or a sixth sense, to put it more clearly, is unwarranted suspicion!"

"However, Xiaohe didn't deny my words like he denied his relationship with Xiaoxue before, which shows that Xiaohe does have some other thoughts about Xiaoxue, doesn't it?"

"To be honest, I still prefer that Yui who doesn't see things so keenly. ”

"So, did I guess it?"

"I didn't give you any answers!"

"Sa, yes—I knew it would be like this! because, from the beginning, from the earliest days, when Xiaohe had any ideas, he never told me. My sister bowed her head with some regret.

"If you're worried that I'm doing something bad under the snow, you can warn her!"

"That's because of this!" Sister Yui raised her head suddenly, and said with some complaint and some helplessness, "Xiaoxue won't believe it, even if it's me, she won't believe it." ”

What this means is that the trust in me under the snow has reached a very high level, right?

Betrayal in this case, can the outcome really be unpredictable?

However, there was no turning back, and from the moment I made up my mind to solve the problem under the snow in this way, I expected the worst possible consequences at this time.

"I know I can never stop your thoughts. But only this time, if, I mean if," my sister looked up and looked at me again, "if Kowa really wants to do something to Koyuki, I want you to be a little more cautious." ”

So, what's the reason? It's not that boring sixth sense, right?

"Because, this time, Xiaohe may have overlooked a very important factor - although I am not sure, but it may really be a very important thing. ”

Sister Yui's last words are still vague and ambiguous, not at all like her usual straightforward style - this situation can only prove that she herself is not completely sure about this so-called "important factor". However, it is impossible for me to change my plans because of the possibility of such vague words.

At the end of the day, my sister doesn't know what I'm going to do with the snow, and I don't know how many factors I've considered for the game, so of course the possibility of an accident can't be completely ruled out, but if you stall for fear of an accident, then everyone will be nothing.

However, my sister's words did remind me that the event of changing my identity should be on the agenda. To be honest, what can I worry about? The only knot in my heart is that of Kogi Senpai, but I have completely cut it off over there. As long as the troubles caused by me are solved, then this first year of high school full of accidents can be declared over.

All the worries that I had been fooled by my own principles of doing things would come to an end after the election of the student council president, and that was all I was looking forward to.

------------------------------------- dividing line------------------------------------

The choice of this time is against the water and snow, on the one hand, because the previous fermentation is almost over, and on the other hand, it is also to take into account the possibility proposed by Kitahara mentioned by my sister before. Although those who know under the snow know that she is a girl who has nothing to do with her feelings, it is true that there may be good people who overinterpret my recent contact with her. And the attack by Kazuya Hihama is the best response to this possible rumor.

The election plan proposed to Xue Xia is to use her ability to govern and focus on those who are dissatisfied with the status quo and seek change. In other words, we should maximize our advantages under the snow, abandon those with vested interests, dilute the power of the centrists, and win the election through the support of our core supporters.

If all goes well, then such a result is of course the best.

However, there is a risk that is not considered a risk in such an election plan - that is, what if the people who originally supported them defect.

This is often the case in formal party elections, where new parties that suddenly emerge quickly eat away at the votes of moderate parties because of their more radical and "in the interests of the masses" electoral platforms, often at the expense of traditionally dominant parties.

Of course, the reason why this risk does not exist in the student council president election is that the registration for the president election is closed, and there is no possibility that there will be a new competitor to snatch the share that belongs to Xuexia - this is the reassurance that Xuexia gave her when discussing this possibility with me later.

But that doesn't change the fact that the original supporters have abandoned their support for the electors. The election of the student president of Sowu High School did not have strict requirements for the voter turnout, and it was a primitive and simple majority victory system. This means that even if 80% of the students abstain from voting, the results of the election will still be valid.

Returning to the competitive strategy under the snow, what if the people who had been fighting under the snow before became suspicious of her? They may not support Isshiki, but even if half of them lose trust in the snow, the students who have abandoned almost all the centrist and conservative positions will have no way to fight back - the near-perfect election plan, the biggest crisis is here.

And I, who single-handedly created the image of a capable ruler, know best what the problems behind such an image are.

------------------------------------ dividing line-------------------------------------------

"So, at the upcoming official lecture for the student council president election, I will ask you questions as an audience, no problem, right?" At the last ministry event before the official lecture for the student council president, I took the initiative to express my attitude to Yukishita.

"You're going to ask me questions?"

"Yes, asking questions to the candidates is a must, isn't it? You know, at this time, there must be a few childcare children who ask some irrelevant questions, this is to avoid the possibility of too sharp questions. There must be such people over there. On your side, of course, the most suitable person is me, right?"

"But," Xue Xia shook his head a little uncertainly, and said carefully, "have you been getting too close to me lately, and you should ask me questions, is this a little too deliberate?"

When she mentioned the phrase "get too close to me", her face turned red unconsciously, and she thought of what her sister had said to me before, even if a person like Snow Fall, it is impossible to completely escape the problem of feelings? In a sense, it is not a bad thing to let her know about the existence of Sonoda before, of course, to exclude the possibility of this potential misunderstanding as much as possible is also a very real problem that she is facing now.

Of course, I thought about it, but it wasn't too much of a problem. All of our discussions took place in ministry classrooms, and the vast majority of us were unaware of this. Attacking your relationship with me is far less effective than directly attacking your program, and I believe that Isshiki is not the one who would use such a low-level method. ”

"You really have a strange trust in Isshiki-san—you had a falling out before, didn't you?" replied Yukishita with a complicated face.

"It's based on believing in her principles of being a human being, and if my opponent is you, I am absolutely confident that you will not use these indiscriminate methods. ”

"Uh, well, okay!"

A normal sentence made Xuexia's face a little red, and it seemed that what her sister said to her before had a great impact on her. Some girls who never think about relationship problems are often entangled after being accidentally pointed out by others, wondering if this is the case under the snow.

Fortunately, the partnership is about to be dissolved, and the misunderstanding will be gone.

"Of course, just in case, I'm going to pick a few tough questions to attack, such as how to implement the budget reform, and today we're going to focus on the issues that I'm going to ask tomorrow. That way, you can mentally prepare for tomorrow. ”

"Is this acting?"

"Performances, of course – this is an old and indispensable part of elections. We don't use personal attacks on other people, but we have to use a variety of methods to portray ourselves in order to win. ”

"Hmm. Although the character under the snow is more proud and upright, she understands some of the necessary strategies.

"So, shall we begin?"

At the beginning of the countdown to betrayal, I suddenly felt an extra sense of guilt—I knew that betrayal was for better salvation, but, as my sister and many others had always observed, I had been allies for a long time, and I had been a little touched by the trust in me under the snow—she had rarely had such high expectations and so much trust in an outsider.

And all of this will be buried by me tomorrow.

As my sister warned, the result of burying this trust may be something I could not have predicted.

"Yubihama?"

When I heard this, I thought - it seemed that the sharp, confident and poisonous Yukino who I had when I first met had completely changed in front of me.

I'm not admiring that under the snow, but is this change – even if it's just for the sake of reshaping – really a good thing?

"I won't speak at the beginning of the conversation, it's not a good habit, Yubihama!"

However, there is still no choice!

"I'm sorry. ”

"It's okay to realize the problem, let's continue, shall we?"

The sorry meaning just now didn't stop there, but there was clearly no other meaning under the snow.

I'm sorry, under the snow, if I cause you more damage next, what will never change is my pursuit of a perfect ending.
