Five minutes later, the teacher led Ryoji to the entrance of the building where the student council room was located.
"Be sure to check in with me, okay? Definitely!"
She looked back three times as she walked away, reluctantly waving goodbye to him.
This teacher, who did not care about formalities, had tried every possible way to get his contact information as soon as she found out that he was a new student. She was rebuffed by Ryoji, who claimed that he didn't have the student handbook with him.
To be honest, it wasn't because of a lack of "destiny" between them, nor was it because of her attractiveness or unimpressive figure - he just wasn't interested enough to give her his number.
Feeling helpless, the teacher left him her number and repeated her request for him to contact her later.
Handsome guys always have this kind of problem. But to be polite, they can't scold people - after all, it was a kind gesture. They can only smile and agree.
Ryoji couldn't help but envy those "ugly bastards" who didn't have to deal with such problems.
He turned around and promptly forgot about the teacher's contact information as he walked into the building and headed for the student council room.
Knock, knock, boom!
"I'm coming, I'm coming!"
After knocking on the door, Ryoji heard the Senior Sister's voice, which sounded like she was quite busy.
"Squeak!
The door opened quickly, revealing the inside of the room.
"Junior Brother?"
Toudou Touka stood in the doorway and looked at Ryoji with a surprised expression on her face.
But shortly after, her face tightened and her expression changed abruptly.
Touka was about half a head shorter than Ryoji. Looking past her, Ryoji easily noticed the interior of the student council room.
The Student Council activity room was very spacious, almost the size of a classroom, with desks, bookshelves, showcases and a flat screen TV, among other things.
But for some reason, the entire Student Council room was incredibly messy at that moment.
Books on the bookshelf were crooked, desk drawers weren't closed properly, papers were scattered all over the desk, and no one had bothered to clean up. In front of the TV, there were wires scattered about, none of which seemed to be connected to anything in particular.
A small boy who looked like an elementary school student was sitting in front of the TV, enthusiastically playing video games while shouting commands.
Next to him, a girl with wheat-colored skin, wearing only a T-shirt and underwear, was concentrating on exercising with a resistance band.
It seemed like only two people were seriously working at the desk.
"Senior Sister, I-"
Ryoji took a step forward, intending to enter the student council room.
Bang!
But the door suddenly slammed shut, leaving Ryoji standing outside.
Holding his nose, Ryoji took a few steps back and took a while to recover, his nose turning bright red.
"Guys, hurry up and clean up! Taka Chan, stop playing games, and Renren, put down that resistance band- you're going to break it at this rate! And how many times do I have to tell you to stop wearing just underwear! There are boys here too... Aah, it's too late! Kanata, Lei, come help me!"
"Wait a minute, Touka! I haven't saved my game yet... Aaaah-!!"
Hearing the chaotic sounds from inside, Ryoji's lips twitched slightly.
Two minutes later.
The Senior Sister quickly opened the door again with her usual warm smile.
"Aiya, Junior Brother, you're here and you didn't even tell me before. Tsk tsk, don't just stand outside, come in! Huh? Why is your nose so red? Luckily it's not bleeding..."
Ryoji: ('・_・)
Whose fault is that?
Once inside, the student council room looked much cleaner than before. The game controllers, the resistance bands, and the crooked books - everything that was out of place - had disappeared, leaving the room looking completely refreshed.
Ryoji scanned the room with his eyes.
He quickly noticed an unnatural bulge in the wardrobe, as if it had been crammed with too many things, threatening to burst at any moment.
However, standing in front of the wardrobe was a mature-looking boy with a shaved head, blocking the door like the Stone Ksitigarbha, with a solemn expression on his face as if he bore a heavy responsibility.
Inside the room, the little boy who had been playing video games in front of the TV was now kneeling on the floor, muttering things like "my save file" and "I've been playing for hours," looking utterly defeated.
Ryoji couldn't help but feel sorry for him. It was probably because the power had been cut off, and as a former gaming enthusiast, Ryoji could empathize with the situation.
On the other side, a golden-haired, blue-eyed girl sat elegantly at a desk, properly handling some documents.
The only person Ryoji recognized was her - Totokubara Kanata, the wealthy girl who had visited his dormitory earlier that morning. Now, she had put down her parasol and removed her wide-brimmed hat, revealing her exquisite, mixed-race face with a perfect, polite smile.
"Oh! Such a handsome junior!"
The last person, the wheat-skinned girl from the sports department, had had her resistance band taken away and was now bouncing around restlessly, unable to sit still. When she saw Ryoji enter, her eyes lit up and she quickly approached him in a very familiar manner.
"I heard that Touka has a junior, but I didn't expect him to be so handsome! Hey, hey, Junior Brother-kun, do you have a girlfriend? If not, how about hanging out with your senpai instead?"
This girl was very bold. Even though she was in the house, she was only wearing a T-shirt and underwear, not even a skirt, which showed a lot of skin. She walked right up to Ryoji, her eyes sparkling, and boldly offered herself as an option.
"Renren! Didn't I tell you to dress properly? And don't just start talking to Junior Brother about things like sexual harassment!"
"Eh~ But I'm sweating so much, my clothes are all wet and uncomfortable!"
"At least wear a skirt!"
"No way! Didn't Touka often take naps in her underwear in the dormitory?"
"That's right! Touka was always like that. She gets really lazy when no one is around, hahaha."
"Can we not talk about 'our' things in front of Junior Brother? And remember, give and take - the student council room isn't the dorm!"
Toudou Touka blushed and scolded the girl named Renren.
The little boy nearby also joined in, laughing along with Renren and teasing Touka.
"Don't mind them, they're always like that."
Totokubara Kanata sighed a little worriedly and stood up from the desk with a helpless expression but without a hint of resentment.
"Please, come in. I'll make you some tea. We only have black tea here. Do you prefer Darjeeling or Assam?"
She led Ryoji to the sofa and spoke with very refined words.
"Do you have iced tea?"
Ryoji blinked and then asked seriously.
"Yes."
Totokubara Kanata blinked in surprise and gave him a strange look before taking a bottle of iced tea out of the cupboard and placing it on the table in front of Ryoji.
"By the way, junior brother, what brings you to the student council room all of a sudden?"
After Ryoji had sat down, Toudou Touka left the two misbehaving girls and cleared her throat to hide her embarrassment. She smiled and asked Ryoji.
