Hayakawa Naomi was overjoyed.
Following her rapid improvement, Pei Zi Yun was full of praises for her food. Even though she had two boring math and geography classes in the afternoon, Naomi was still very happy.
Moreover, there was going to be a gathering tonight. This was the first official gathering of the Dominating the Nation Society, and she was looking forward to it.
After class, Hayakawa Naomi took out her mobile phone from her pocket and called her mother, Hayakawa Tachiko. She explained the situation to her mother and told her that the club was having a gathering and that she might be home late. She then rushed to her destination.
The gathering was on the second floor of Sanjōya, which was not far from the school. It was only a few hundred meters away. Since there was a discount for students, many gatherings and activities were held here. Hayakawa Naomi was very familiar with this place.
It was already the 11th of June. Hayakawa Naomi walked for about ten minutes before reaching Sanjōya.
When she entered, she heard Yuta Yukina's unique voice greeting her, "Hayakawa-san, why are you only here now? We've been waiting for you for a long time. We're just waiting for you and the president!"
Yuta Yukina drank his tea and shouted at Hayakawa Naomi.
Hearing this, Hayakawa Naomi was a little embarrassed. She bowed and said, "Ah, I'm sorry. I have classes in the afternoon and am late. Please forgive me!"
Murata Seiichiro's eyes were filled with awe as he scratched his head and laughed, "Haha, you don't have to apologize, Hayakawa-san. You're not late."
Hayakawa Naomi looked at the people at the table and realized that there were quite a number of them. Including herself, there were a total of nine people. Almost all the members of the society were present. The only ones who were not present were the president and Kuwako.
Sanjōya was a well-known mid-range restaurant near the school. It was neither expensive nor cheap, but the food was very affordable. Hence, it was very popular among the students of Milan Private High School.
Moreover, there were private rooms in Sanjo House. When people came here to eat, if they wanted a bit more private space, they could book a private room. The price of the private rooms here was not expensive, just a little more money, so it was very popular.
This was the first gathering of the Domination Society, and they had booked a private room.
There was a big table in the private room that could fit more than a dozen people. Only nine people had arrived, and there were still a few empty seats. So, Hayakawa Naomi found an empty seat and sat down.
Due to the absence of Pei Zi Yun, the members of the club were chatting amongst themselves. Hayakawa Naomi sat down and tore off her wet towel.
But as soon as she sat down, she heard a whisper. She saw Yuta Haruyama whispering to Murata Seiichiro, "Hey, Ichiro, don't you think that Hayakawa is getting more and more beautiful?"
After saying that, he glanced at Hayakawa Naomi.
"Yeah, she looks like a different person!" Murata Seiichiro glanced at Hayakawa Naomi and nodded.
"I even went to ask my mom about this. She said that girls change really quickly in middle school, but isn't that a little too fast?" Yuta Toneyama took another peek and said in disbelief.
Although Yuta Toneyama and Murata Junichiro's voices were soft, Hayakawa Naomi could hear them clearly, as though they were speaking right beside her ear.
Hearing these words, Hayakawa Naomi blushed. She wiped her face and took out a small mirror from her bag. She opened it up and realized that she had indeed changed quite a bit.
"Indeed, I seem to have changed. Is it because of my dreams?" Hayakawa Naomi asked herself as she looked at her own face.
During this period of time, Hayakawa Naomi was living a blissful life. She was only troubled by small matters. Every night, she would hear someone whispering to her in her dreams. She did not know what they were saying, but when she woke up in the morning, she could not remember anything. All she could remember was a slight headache.
Because of this, Hayakawa Naomi and her mother had gone to the hospital for a check-up. However, they did not find anything wrong with her.
At this point, Pei Zi Yun walked in.
When Pei Zi Yun walked in, everyone at the table stood up and bowed to him, "Leader, you're here!"
Pei Zi Yun looked around the room and his gaze landed on Hayakawa Naomi.
Hayakawa Naomi had changed a lot in the past two weeks. Her waist-length hair hung down lazily, and her eyes gradually lit up. She might not know it, but her frown and smile made her heart skip a beat.
Furthermore, her beauty was growing. Was this the awakening of her mermaid bloodline?
Pei Zi Yun shook his head and suppressed his excitement. Seeing that all the seats were taken, he said, "Sorry for the trouble, everyone. Please take a seat. You can't drink alcohol, but you can order something else."
In Japan, alcohol regulations were very strict. Since a long time ago, there had been a "Prohibition of Underage Alcohol Act". Anyone who was under the age of 20 was not allowed to drink alcohol. Shops and eateries that sold alcohol to underage people could be fined up to 500,000 yen.
It could be said that Japan was one of the strictest countries in the world when it came to the prohibition of underage alcohol. Apart from the laws, they had also put in a lot of effort to spread the word. Regardless of whether it was government departments, organizations or schools, they were all trying to spread the word about the dangers of underage alcohol.
In terms of punishment, if a student was found to have drunk alcohol, he would be suspended or even expelled from school.
There were vending machines on the streets of Japan, but it was not easy to buy beer or other alcoholic beverages. It was the same in shops as well. Shops were often afraid of being punished for selling alcohol to underage people. If their license was revoked because of this, they would feel that it was not worth it.
Because of this, Pei Zi Yun did not order any alcohol. He only ordered milk tea and some dishes. The people around him looked at each other and chose the same black tea and milk tea as Pei Zi Yun.
Pei Zi Yun couldn't help but sigh (̄ _ ̄) sigh. This was one of the things that Japanese people didn't feel right about. If they were to gather for a meal, even if they didn't have a superior, if one of them ordered a type of wine or drink, everyone else would have to order the same. If they didn't, it would mean that they didn't understand the atmosphere and would be ostracized by the entire group.
However, the black tea and milk tea were made from milk from Hokkaido. It tasted pretty good and he liked it very much. Since everyone ordered the same type of food, it was fine.
Very quickly, a waiter brought the milk tea and dishes to the table.
"Then … let's have a drink!" Pei Zi Yun raised his cup and stood up.
When they saw Pei Zi Yun stand up, the other members all stood up as well. "Heh!" they gulped down their cups of wine.
When Pei Zi Yun finished his cup, Hayakawa Naomi and Kuwako, who were sitting beside him, reached for the milk tea. However, Kuwako's hands were too short. Before she could reach for it, Hayakawa Naomi had already picked it up and poured another cup for Pei Zi Yun.
Pei Zi Yun's gaze swept across everyone at the table. He realized that everyone was not pouring their own cup, but others. This was a common practice in Japan.
Don't fill your own glass, someone else will do it for you. Your job is not to fill your own glass, but to fill the glass of the person sitting next to you. It is said that this is good for unity and promotes teamwork. That's why it's so perverted in certain aspects.
Of course, a leader can choose not to refill a cup for his subordinates.
Pei Zi Yun could only (̄ _ ̄) ignore this group of idiots and said, "Everyone, listen up. What I am going to say next is very important!"
"On the eighteenth of next month, our school term will end. The first holiday tour will begin soon. Hence, within these thirty days, please decide on our first holiday destination, as well as our itinerary!"
"Also, be prepared for the trip. If you are unable to join us, please inform us in advance." Pei Zi Yun looked around at everyone at the table and said loudly.
"Hey! Hey! Minister, no problem! " Sitting opposite Pei Zi Yun, Yutaka Yutaka was the first to speak. He placed his cup of milk tea on the table and said loudly.
Because it was a gathering today, Yutaka Yutaka was dressed more formally than usual.
However, Pei Zi Yun looked at Yutaka Yutaka patting his chest with both hands. No matter how he looked at it, he felt like a small gorilla patting his own chest.
At this point, Hayakawa Naomi raised her hand as well. Her face was red as she said softly, "Yes, Minister, I have no problem with it. I can join!"
At the same time, everyone expressed that they had no problem with it.
Pei Zi Yun looked at this scene and continued, "If that's the case, everyone, please enjoy your meal!"
"Regarding our first holiday destination, as well as our itinerary, if anyone has any suggestions, we can discuss them now."
Hearing this, everyone sat down to discuss this topic.
Seeing that everyone had sat down to discuss, Pei Zi Yun heaved a sigh of relief. At this point, he heard someone knocking on the door and said, "Yamada-kun, may I come in?"
Pei Zi Yun was currently at the second level of Sanjōya. Most of the rooms were private rooms. Once the dishes were served, the doors to the private rooms would be closed. Usually, no one would disturb them.
The voice was steady and powerful, and it was slightly familiar. It was obviously a grown man's voice. Pei Zi Yun furrowed his brows and put down the cup in his hand. He jumped up from his chair and walked to the door, opening it.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that this person was Tomoshi Ōoka.
Tomoshi Ōoka was wearing a pair of dark sunglasses. His hair was combed straight up and he wore a dark blue suit. He wasn't alone today. There was a middle aged man who was wiping his sweat.
Tomoshi Ōoka bowed at the door and said, "Yamada-kun, sorry to disturb you. If you don't mind, why don't we go up to the third floor to talk?"
As Tomoshi Ōoka spoke to Pei Zi Yun, his gaze swept across Hayakawa Naomi, who was sitting beside Pei Zi Yun. He was startled for a moment before looking away.
However, Tomoshi Ōoka's heart was slightly shaken.
Hayakawa Naomi, of course, knew who she was. This was because this girl was the core of Hengyuan Yukio's Mermaid Blood Project. Tomoshi Ōoka was Hengyuan Yukio's confidant and knew her very well. Not too long ago, the battle at Rimi Dojo was also caused by her.
Tomoshi Ōoka remembered that she wasn't as beautiful as she was now. Could it be that her mermaid blood had awakened?
The middle-aged man behind Tomoka Ohka also saw Hayakawa Naomi when Tomoka Ohka bent down. He couldn't help but open his mouth wide in amazement. He couldn't look away.
