Chapter 24: White Day I
The time is March 14th, which is White Day.
The venue is White Emperor College, the school's conference hall.
"This is the end of the student summary meeting in the third semester of this academic year, and there will be no student activities for the remaining week, please review well and prepare for the final exam......"
Crisp voices echoed around the open space, and a heroic girl with long pink hair was giving a generous speech on the conference stage, and the final student meeting at the end of the semester was finally coming to an end.
"Finally, I would like to inform you that starting from the next academic year, St. Ying's Church Girls' College will be merged with the school, and the relevant systems and facilities will be changed, and the rules and regulations will remain the same, but there will be a number of additions, and the system of St. Ying's Church Women's College will also be inherited......
Gui Daisy gently flipped through the document in her hand and paused, as if to confirm something.
Then, nodding slightly, she just followed the previous train of thought -
"According to the decision of the Board of Trustees, the election of Elder will take place in conjunction with the election of the Student Council members, which is in May of each year. However, members of the Student Council are not allowed to serve as Elders, so please inform us if you are interested in this regard......"
In the spacious conference hall, there was a neat queue of students, no matter what grade they were, they were quietly listening to the speech of the pink-haired girl on the conference stage.
Whether or not they were really listening, at least no one was talking to each other, so the hall was quiet except for the sound of Guidaisy talking.
But behind the conference stage, behind the curtain, that's not the case—
"Elder, it's said that she's the older sister of the girls in the school! Okay, I've decided that since there's no hope of getting into the student union, let's compete for this program......"
Putting down the ballpoint pen in her hand, the blonde girl thoughtfully showed an elegant and noble smile like a young lady, which was completely a manifestation of suddenly discovering her life goal.
"yes, yes, what about the older sister of the girls in the school...... But don't overthink it, Lilicia-san. ”
Mu Xiu lowered his head and quickly took notes, listening distractedly to the speech record of the student council president outside, while echoing the other party's words.
He is here because the clerk of the student council today, Chun Chun Chi Sakura, has rarely taken a leave of absence, so he can only be responsible for taking the meeting minutes in place of the other party. Needless to say, Fujido Lilicia came for the news of the school newspaper.
But Mu Xiu was curious about how terrifying her abilities were-
Can even such a modest student meeting distort the facts and decipher strange remarks?
"Wait a minute, Mr. Mu Xiu! I can't pretend I didn't hear this rude remark, what do you mean? ”
A cross-shaped green tendon suddenly appeared on Lilicia's forehead, she snorted coldly, and then stroked her long smooth blonde hair.
"Do you mean that as long as it's me, I'm definitely not qualified?"
“……”
“……”
There is a murderous aura! What a strong sense of oppression, just one sentence, this guy has awakened the small universe?!
Mu Xiu couldn't help but raise his head and stare at her for a long time, but the magic was that the pen in his hand was still writing.
Lines of graceful handwriting appeared in the notebook, synchronously recording the voice of the Gui Daisy outside, as if such a distraction was just the simplest basic operation for him.
Just when Fujido Lilicia was a little unnatural by his gaze, and was about to say something in annoyance.
He lowered his head again, sighed and said: "The appearance is indeed excellent, but the inside is too cruel - Elder's campaign is not just based on appearance and temperament, otherwise Lilicia you do have a great advantage." ”
"Hmm——!!"
The blonde girl's slightly annoyed look disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by an expression that made people feel a little cute.
"Wait, wait, even if you say that, I still can't turn a deaf ear, what do you mean?"
She squinted her eyes slightly and looked at the guy in front of her, and subconsciously or slightly flustered asked with such a menacing attitude, as if she wanted to change the topic.
However, Mu Xiu, who was concentrating on the transcription work with his head down, missed such a valuable CG.
It's just that he didn't know it, so he shrugged his shoulders and said in a relaxed tone:
"Literally, since you rebuilt the school newspaper, the student council has received more than eighty submissions against you this semester, and Chisakura-san is even considering whether to give you a filing cabinet to deal with this kind of ......."
“……”
“……”
"This ...... This one...... How is it possible, there must be a conspiracy ......"
I probably didn't know that there was such a thing, Fujido Lilicia stammered and wanted to say something, but for a while, she couldn't find a good reason.
Isn't she really aware of her poor popularity at school? Even the-for-tat Kashiwazaki Hoshina just doesn't have a good reputation among girls.
However, as a member of the school newspaper that always likes to distort public opinion, he is indiscriminately alienated by the students of the whole school.
To be honest, in such a situation, there are only those who can become friends with Fujido Lilycia, except for Mu Xiu, there are only those people who Mu Xiu also knows, and if you have to say the reason, it is probably ...... Together?
Because people always form a team according to their conduct and hobbies, and it is difficult to get along with each other if they have different personalities. So the personalities and hobbies between the two as friends will definitely have some similarities.
For example, if Mu Xiu doesn't care about things, then most of the people he knows won't be too entangled.
After all, easy-going people will not want to be friends with people who blow up at the slightest touch, and people who believe in "self-denial make people weak" are probably difficult to have any common language with Long × Tian who "no one in the sky or on the earth can save you......
"Aren't you already mentally prepared anyway?"
Mu Xiu sighed and said, and then he asked with a little curiosity as if he remembered something.
"By the way, Lilicia, I seem to have seen your sister's name on the transfer list of the primary school next semester......"
“…… What do you want? ”
Fujitang Lilicia suddenly became vigilant, and her blue eyes looked at Mu Xiu suspiciously.
"I'm just asking, how about you listen to me......" Mu Xiu was speechless.
And at this time, the laurel daisy on the conference table outside had just finished the last sentence-
……
……
With the thunderous applause outside, in the midst of the excitement of worrying about whether the dome of the conference hall would be torn down, the pink-haired girl lifted the curtain and walked backstage, then let out a long sigh and reached out slightly to wipe the fine sweat from her forehead.
"It's finally over, it feels terrible......"
"Why? I think you're calm! It's all down and generous to give a speech in front of so many people......" Mu Xiu also drew the last end in the notebook, and then said teasingly.
"Don't make fun of me, I'm nervous too...... Hey, Mu Xiujun, why are you the only one? Gui Daisy looked to the side, then asked with a frown.
"Hey, don't ignore me, okay? I still can't pretend that I haven't heard that...... Ah, really, why do you all talk so similarly and always be so annoying. ”
The blonde girl suddenly twitched the corners of her eyes and said, these two guys have made an appointment in advance to squeeze themselves.
What does it mean to have only one person? When you don't exist?
"Oh, I mean the student council guys...... I'm sorry, Fujido-san. Gui Daisy quickly explained, and then she raised an eyebrow. Wait, what does it mean to be similar? ”
Mu Xiu plucked out his ears and yawned with a gag: "Qianying-san, I don't know why today, it seems that there is something, so I took a half-day off...... Those three words, well, normal! ”
Yes, it is normal for a student union of Nuo University to have only three people working in total.
So, Spring Breeze Qianying rarely took a leave of absence, so it is natural that there are only two students left, isn't this a normal phenomenon?
"Anyway, is there something about Daisy-san looking for them?"
Fujido Lilicia's attention was always sharp, or rather strange, and she saw a colorful ribbon peeking out of the pocket of the Guidaisy skirt.
"Oh, it's Valentine's Day! I received a lot of chocolates on Valentine's Day before, so I'm going to give it back...... It's a little cookie that I baked with my own hands. ”
Katsura Daisy explained as she took out a long gift box from the pocket of her skirt.
"yes, it's White Day...... Wait, wait, wasn't Valentine's Day before supposed to be a girl giving a boy chocolate? Fujido Lilycia reacted, a confused expression on her face.
"Yes, but they just want to give it to me, and I can't help it!" The pink-haired girl seemed to be a little crying and laughing.
“……”
“……”
"Hehehe, yes, is that so?" Fujido Lilycia's face was full of complicated smiles, and the corners of her mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but take a step back.
I always feel defeated...... Damn, is any opponent in this school so powerful?
In comparison, the poor popularity of his own people seems to be a little sad.
At this time-
"Huh? Wait, it's ...... Is White Day coming? ”
Mu Xiu blinked on the side, and then said to himself in a cold sweat on his face, he staggered around and was about to walk outside, his eyes as if he had seen the end of the world.
And yet—
“…… Mu Xiujun? What's going on, you probably forgot about the return gift, right? ”
A voice sounded faintly behind him.
“……”
“……”
"This, I have some things to do these days, I really forgot what day it is......" Mu Xiu turned around and laughed dryly, but no matter how you look at it, his expression seems to be very far-fetched.
"So what?" Fujido Lilicia also came up to join in the fun, and she narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she was very dissatisfied.
"Because there are a lot of people who want to return the gift, and ...... And Gong Xiaolu, I have obviously forgotten this nightmare......" Mu Xiu forced out a smile.
"It's really popular, classmate Mu Xiu - but isn't Gong Xiaolu a big beauty? The fact that she gave you love chocolates is envious of the boys in the school, why are you so repulsed! ”
The corners of Fujido Lilicia's mouth were slightly curved, but her tone was not salty and light.
"Long-winded! It's all Demacia's fault, if it weren't for the rumors you spread in the school magazine, how could this matter be known to the whole school! Mu Xiu's face was furious.
"What is called rumor-mongering, is that obviously the truth...... Wait, who do you say is Demacia! Call Miss Ben by my name! ”
The blonde girl with a big bow on the back of her head also ripped her face and shouted unhappily.
"That, classmate Mu Xiu, are you going to prepare a return gift?"
Gui Daisy was not diverted from the topic, she just said quietly.
"What are you going to give in return, or ...... Are you going to accept it or not? ”
