Office of the Students' Union.

Glancing at the few people who were looking at him, Naruse turned around and clicked on the whiteboard and wrote down a date.

“…… So, if you are sure that you want to order food for the party from an off-campus restaurant, you have to place an order the day after tomorrow at the latest, otherwise it will be too late. ”

He paused, then continued, "Given the budget, it's best to decide on the number of people you're going to party tomorrow first.

Although the time is a little tight, if you mobilize the chairmen of each class in the morning, you should be able to complete the statistics before school ends tomorrow, after all, the final exams are over, and there is nothing else to do in the past few days. ”

Naruse thought for a moment and said:

"To exclude those who are unlikely to come on the same day, let's raise the bar for party participation a little bit: set the cost of food and drinks at 1,000 yen."

Several members of the student council looked at each other, while the secretary kept looking down and making notes in his notebook.

"1,000 yen, isn't that too much?" The accountant asked.

"It's a bit high." Naruse nodded, "But this will eliminate as many people as possible who are not sure if they can come over and reduce waste." ”

"That's what you say...... Let's lower it a little bit, how about 800 yen? ”

Naruse smiled, "This was originally decided by the seniors, and I just made a suggestion." ”

Several people discussed a few more words, and the resolution was passed.

After a slight pause, Naruse looked back at what had already been written on the whiteboard, thinking about what he might have missed.

"Has Naruse-san ever organized a Christmas party before?" The student council president asked.

"No, but I did."

“……”

Several people glanced at each other with different expressions.

And Naoko, who was sitting opposite, smiled and always looked at Naruse who was standing at the front.

"Next, there's the advocacy side. I recommend ......"

After another twenty minutes, the sudden Christmas party deliberation meeting ended.

The resolutions have been translated into words, with dates clearly displayed on the board.

With the air conditioner on in the office, Naruse wiped the sweat from his forehead and bowed his head to the student council members below.

"That's pretty much it...... It's rude. ”

"No, no, Naruse-san has helped a lot. I didn't expect there to be such a talent in the first year, are you interested in joining the student union? ”

"Sorry, we're busy with club activities in the Restoration Department......"

While the student president was talking to him, the accountant leaned to the side and asked the vice president:

"This first-year is quite capable, why haven't you heard of it before?"

"It seems like a transfer student who only came here in the second semester...... By the way, in the previous comprehensive exam, he was admitted to the first place in the grade. ”

"The first in the first grade, why do I say the name 'Harumi Naruse' is familiar."

"It's amazing, isn't it?"

"Well, it's just not like first grade."

"What do you mean?"

The accountant pushed his glasses and whispered: "It looks a little proud, he let us listen to him as soon as he came, and he didn't pay attention to his seniors at all - compared to the first grade, he is more like a third-year senior who parachuted in to guide him." ”

Yoshioka-senpai laughed dryly.

"Although the budget for a party on the snow is directly listed in the table, it makes the president completely dead, and it is also very neat."

"You and the president have been arguing about those useless things, and everyone is anxious when they look at it."

After responding to the invitation of the student council president, Naruse quickly returned to the bottom and sat down next to Naoko and Rina Ogawa.

"It's really going to be in the limelight." Rina Ogawa said.

Naruse smiled.

"There shouldn't be any problem now, the next step is execution." Naoko looked at the student council members opposite and whispered.

"Well, wait for what they command."

The student council members discussed for a while, and Vice President Yoshioka came over to explain their work to them: "Naruse-san, I'm sorry for you today. The Christmas tree will be delivered tomorrow, so I'll ask the restoration department to decorate it. ”

It seems that the task assigned to them is to decorate the Christmas tree, Naruse glanced at Naoko and nodded, "Okay." ”

The three of them left the student council and walked to the department.

"It should go well." Rina Ogawa glanced back.

"As long as the plan of Chunhai is carefully implemented within the stipulated time limit, there will be no problems." Naoko said.

Naruse shook his head, "I just made some suggestions based on the parties I attended at school before. ”

"Really?"

Rina Ogawa looked at him, "When Naruse went up just now, he almost had 'you all get out of here, let Lao Tzu be the student council president'. ”

"Hehehe......"

When I returned to the department of the restoration department, I said that the arrangements would be made, and the members of the department had no opinion, just waiting for the Christmas tree to be delivered tomorrow.

The rest of the time, Naoko and Rina Ogawa chatted with the rest of the department about the Christmas party arrangements for what they knew, while Naruse continued to read until the end of school.

"I suddenly remembered ......"

While waiting for the train on the platform, he suddenly said, "I still have Christmas gifts prepared by my mother at home." ”

"Hmm."

"They're supposed to all go to the school party, and they don't have to worry about it. When you come back from school, just give them the gifts. ”

Naoko nodded, "Okay." ”

By the next day, with the information published on the bulletin board, it was already known that the student union was going to hold a Christmas party.

"Do you have to pay 800 yen for food and drink......

"Not too much, right?"

"I still have to go out during the winter vacation, I'm a little short on money, I have to think about it."

During the lunch break, Hikaru Takikawa returned to the classroom and also talked to Naruse about it.

"The student council is going to have a Christmas party, I didn't expect it."

"I guess it's everyone's blessing."

"But it's a little bit of a pity in terms of time."

The start and end of the Christmas party is one of the few parts that Naruse does not intervene in, and it is entirely up to the student council or the school administration to decide - it starts at 3 p.m. and ends at 6:30 p.m.

"No matter what kind of party, it's better to have it at night." Hikaru Takikawa said.

Naruse smiled, "You'll have to think about commuting." ”

The student council also took the atmosphere into account, and planned to block or close all the doors and windows around the gymnasium to create a dim environment like a night, just like during the cultural festival.

"My friend said the student council was recruiting."

"I was one of those recruited. And Naoko. ”

"Eh~"

So Hikaru Takikawa said that he would come over to see it after school.

"Just don't go around disturbing other people's work."

"No, at most just say hello."

"That's the interruption."

In the afternoon, Naruse and Naoko went to the ministry room first, and then went to the gymnasium with the members.

Hikaru Takikawa had already come over first, and greeted the two: "There are really a lot of things to be busy with." ”

"That's why we need manpower."

Naruse looked left and right, the warehouse of the gymnasium was open, and some students were carrying out boxes and boxes of various decorative items that had been sent over.

Soon, he also saw the Christmas tree they needed to work on today.

It is about two meters long, undecorated, and at this time it is just an ordinary pine tree.

"Naruse-san, this flower-san." Vice President Yoshioka-senpai came over to greet everyone in the restoration department, "I'm going to work hard for you today." ”

"Yoshioka-san."

Naoko stepped forward to chat with her for a few words, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Naruse looking to the side, so she also glanced over there.

At the door of the gymnasium warehouse, starfish held cardboard boxes, well-behaved.

[Push book: The girl next door will become a cat]
