During the rest of the lunch break, Seiji followed Mika and Chiaki around the school.
Yuen Hwa Secondary was quite large, and it was divided into a middle school and high school section. Apart from some shared facilities, the two sections were basically separated.
"That's why it's not easy to meet sweet and delicious middle school girls, but if you beg me, I can tell you how to meet them ~" Chiaki said with a mischievous smile.
"Don't talk nonsense, Chiaki, what do you mean by sweet and delicious..." Mika smiled wryly.
"It's very tempting, but I can't be treated as a pervert right now. Let's postpone it." Seiji rubbed his chin.
“!? Seigo, you? "
"Heh, I'm just joking."
Seiji felt that compared to Mika, he could chat more freely with Chiaki, who seemed like a little devil.
Mika Uehara was sandwiched between her naughty best friend and the otaku who was gradually letting go of his shackles, so she couldn't keep up.
While Mika was being teased by Chiaki, Seiji scanned the school and suddenly saw a petite girl looking in his direction.
The girl was wearing a middle school uniform. She was short, had slender limbs, and had a delicate face and large eyes. Her pupils were heterochromatic, with green on the left and blue on the right. What left a deep impression was that she wore a pair of large cat ears on her head, which were swaying gently in a cute manner.
She looked at Seiji, and Seiji looked back at her.
Suddenly, she started running, agilely running into the shadow of a nearby tree, and disappeared.
"Is she a middle school girl? Her outfit is really... "Seiji was a little curious.
Lunch break passed just like that.
After the last class in the afternoon, a boy with short yellow hair and a sharp face walked up to the podium. At first glance, he looked like he was cosplaying as a certain fighting species.
"As everyone knows, the school festival is at the end of this month, so we're going to decide on the project for our class."
While the boy was talking, Seiji asked the classmate next to him and found out that the boy was the class monitor, Koji Hoshihara.
"I've collected some students' suggestions. I'm writing them on the blackboard now. If there are any other suggestions, you can bring them up together. Then we can filter them and vote on them."
School festival, this was a classic scene in daily anime. Seiji was quite interested in this.
On the blackboard, Keiji wrote down the names of the haunted house, coffee shop, dessert shop, themed exhibition, mini cinema, and so on. None of them were out of Seiji's expectations; they were all relatively mundane things.
After writing down all the projects that they could think of, the whole class began to discuss what they should do. The atmosphere was quite lively.
Just as the choices were gradually being made and the atmosphere was cooling down, a clear voice suddenly rang out.
"Harano-kun, although you just transferred in today, you shouldn't remain silent at a time like this. Why don't you tell us your opinion?"
It was Kazufuru Ooike.
Seiji's words immediately attracted everyone's attention to Seiji.
Was this an assist or a provocation?
Seiji glanced over at this "friend" of his and smiled.
"That's true."
"After listening to everyone's discussion, I do have some ideas.
Under the gaze of the whole class, he took his time and organized his thoughts and words.
"I think a dessert shop is a good choice.
This is one of the projects that most people in the class agree with. The students who oppose it mainly think that it's too troublesome to make desserts, and that it's difficult to guarantee the equipment and materials.
It just so happens that I have a way to solve this problem. Since I'm working at an excellent dessert shop, we can order directly from there and just bring out the finished products for the customers.
"I can negotiate the price, and I should be able to get some discounts. Also, we can make simple desserts ourselves. It'll be more secure if we work on both sides.
"Also, I suggest giving this dessert shop a cosplay theme and make it into a cosplay dessert shop. The cosplay target will be the recently popular anime 'Honey Candy Girl.'
"If necessary, I can also try to contact the copyright owner of this anime and obtain official authorization …"
Seiji explained his idea in an organized manner.
The entire classroom fell silent for a moment.
'Crap, I accidentally used the speech techniques of a civil servant from my previous life. Am I being too boring?' Seiji broke out in a cold sweat.
Kazufuru Ooike inwardly sighed.
'Excellent performance!' Although he expected that this level of difficulty wouldn't be difficult for him, he still …
* Clap clap clap … * As a "friend," Kazufuru clapped for Seiji's excellent speech.
Soon, the girls began clapping as well, and the boys could only go along with the flow.
"I think that Harano -san's suggestion is excellent," Class President Keiji agreed as he glanced at the entire class. "How about we do as he says? A cosplay dessert shop! "
The class began discussing again. The girls expressed their strong agreement, and due to the girls' enthusiasm, the boys could only accept.
This was mainly because "Honey Candy Girl" had become incredibly popular recently and had become a phenomenon in Sakura Island. It was especially famous among the younger generation.
The doll costume that Seiji wore when he first worked was a mascot in this anime.
And the store owner, Rika Amami, was actually a relative of the original author. In fact, the original author even got some of his inspiration from Rika Amami!
That was why he was confident that he could get the rights to the original author through the store owner. However, since it was only a temporary shop for the school festival, it probably wasn't necessary.
In the end, the class voted, and the cosplay dessert shop received an overwhelming majority of votes. Thus, the school festival for Year 1 Class 5 was decided.
"That's all for today's meeting. We'll discuss the specifics at tomorrow's meeting. For now, everyone can go to the club activities," the class president concluded.
The students all stood up and left the classroom in groups of twos and threes. Mika and Chiaki walked over to Seiji Mukai.
"Seiji, are you going to work?"
"No need. I want to experience the school's club activities. "Seiji smiled." Could I trouble you to be my tour guide again? "
The answer was, of course.
Seiji wanted to drag Kazufuru along with him, but the guy used the student union as an excuse to leave.
Well, in the future, there would be more opportunities to train... whoops, improve their relationship.
Under Mika and Chiaki's guidance, the three of them first went to the tennis club, which was also the club that Mika belonged to.
"Our school's tennis club's level is rather low, and we can't even enter the national championships... Our daily atmosphere is mainly for leisure." Mika explained sheepishly. "I just play casually in the club."
"Casually, but she's still the second strongest player in the club. She's actually quite competitive now ~" Chiaki revealed.
"No... of course not, I'm just... playing at my own pace!" Mika's face reddened slightly.
"Second strongest? That's quite impressive. Then who's the first strongest? The president? "Seiji asked.
Mika nodded.
"The president is the best; she almost entered the national championships this year."
The tennis club president's name was Hideya Aizawa.
He was a handsome boy with light green hair and regular facial features. His biggest goal wasn't to enter the national championships next year, but to win over Mika Uehara, one of the best first-year girls in the tennis club.
That was why he was quite depressed when he heard the rumor that the school bully had his eyes on Mika. But that was all he felt; he didn't have the courage to fight against the school bully.
But for some unknown reason, the school bully was first taught a lesson by the student council president, and then mysteriously dropped out of school.
'There's still a chance!' Aizawa thought to himself.
Mika must have been frightened after being targeted by the school bully. If he actively took care of her and found the perfect time to confess, he should be able to win her heart.
However, the situation was different from what he imagined. Mika didn't seem depressed at all in the club, and her attitude towards him seemed even more distant, which made him feel as if all his previous efforts had been for naught.
Why?
Today, when he saw Mika Uehara bring a dazzlingly handsome boy to school, he understood.
Seigo Harano, a new transfer student to Year 1 Class 5. Not only that, he was also a tenant friend of Mika's that had been acquainted with her before she transferred.
All the girls in the tennis club had their eyes light up when they saw him!
And the boys, including Aizawa, felt an almost tangible sense of oppression.
For the first time, a feeling of being united against a common enemy arose among the boys in the tennis club, and it reached its peak when Mika Uehara lent a tennis racket to that guy, and the two of them tried to play together!
What kind of idol drama was this!?
Almost all the female members took out their cell phones and took pictures of that guy, all of them blushing. 'Motherf * cker, these girls are usually stubborn and arrogant, but now they're collectively smitten, what the hell!!!'
And it was the same for Mika Uehara, who was playing against him. That gaze, those small movements, that expression, it was simply too charming, and even an idiot could see her inner feelings!
This beautiful junior had never shown this kind of expression before in the club, but now, it was as if she was giving him a free gift, and she was giving it her all in front of him …
'They're all bitches!'
Aizawa's heart was filled with resentment, and he felt as if he had seen the truth of the world, and the cruelty of fate.
No!
He refused to admit it, refused to accept it.
So what if he was a super handsome guy!?
He wanted to use his ability to almost enter the national tournament to tell that guy that in this world, looks weren't the only thing that mattered!
