Restricted Death

Chapter 74 Are you willing?

The spring breeze blew gently over the bench in the Spiritual Arts Academy, and snowflakes fell on the girl's shoulders. Hinamori squinted her eyes and enjoyed the golden sunlight spreading on her face, making a comfortable sound.

Glancing at the boy walking towards her, Hinamori raised the corner of her mouth and asked, "Why do you seem to be busier than me every day?"

"The head teacher wants to talk to me about something."

"Oh."

Hitsugaya sat beside her, his eyes casually scanning the classmates scattered around.

"Have we, Hitsugaya-san, been doing well lately and getting praised again?"

Hinamori's voice was light and somewhat teasing.

Hitsugaya said, "My homeroom teacher asked me what I wanted to do after graduation and if there was a team I wanted to join."

"graduate?"

A surprised expression appeared on Hinamori's face. She thought it was funny, "You haven't even been enrolled for two months!"

Hitsugaya shook his head slightly. "The president said that if I work hard enough, I can graduate this year. That's what my homeroom teacher just said. He said that many squads have noticed me."

Hinamori was briefly stunned, then her mouth opened into an O shape: "Toushirou! You're amazing! You're going to graduate from the Spiritual Arts Academy in just one year!"

Hitsugaya glanced sideways at the girl next to him and said, "I hadn't thought I'd graduate so soon."

Hinamori said excitedly, "Why not? It only took one year to graduate. That would be a great achievement if you could tell anyone about it!"

"..."

Hitsugaya didn't respond, as if he didn't take this matter that seriously. He just supported himself with his hands on both sides and leaned back slightly. The sunlight filtered by the cherry trees also took a rest on the bench with him. The gentle wind blew past, ruffling the short hair on his forehead.

"What about you? Which team do you want to join?"

Hinamori tilted her head, a carefree smile on her face, "I thought you knew, the Fourth Division."

This answer made Hitsugaya look away again.

"Because of the president?"

Facing Hitsugaya, Hinamori suddenly showed a little shyness. She remembered that she liked the president, but it seemed that Toshiro didn't know it yet.

As childhood sweethearts, this made Hinamori feel a little embarrassed.

How should I talk about this kind of thing?
She changed the subject, "Has anyone from Team 13 come to see you? Several vice-captains came to see the president back then."

Hitsugaya said, "Vice-Captain Shiba of the Thirteenth Division came to see me the other day."

"Vice-Captain Shiba," Hinamori said thoughtfully. "He's a very good guy, I remember him! He seems to have a good relationship with the president. Oh, and that Shiba Ganju who joined the student council with you! He must have some connection with this Vice-Captain Shiba."

The girl spoke non-stop, but Hitsugaya responded absentmindedly, "Vice-Captain Shiba is Shiba Ganju's older brother."

Because they are companions and they are both in the student council, he is now quite close to Shiba Ganju.

"Oh, do you want to join the Thirteenth Division in the future?"

"……do not know."

Hitsugaya really hasn't thought about this matter yet. He has just started school and hasn't met all the classmates yet.

In the past two days, he did some research on the Thirteenth Squad and learned about the functions of different squads, but in fact they are all similar. At present, he does not have any overly grand ideals and goals, and he is passive in many things.

Hinamori seemed to have thought of something and added, "Oh right, you can go ask the president about this. He must have a deeper understanding of Team 13, and he knows several of the vice-captains and captains of Team 13!"

Her voice was as clear as usual, but Hitsugaya felt as if a plum was suddenly stuffed into his throat.

"Let's go now!"

"..."

Hinamori said as she stood up, looking very anxious.

This made Hitsugaya wonder if she really cared about him or if she was just using this as an excuse because she wanted to see that person.

"Let's talk about it later. I'm a little sleepy and need to take a nap."

Hinamori heard him say that and said angrily: "You guy, you don't care about your own business at all!"

Hitsugaya just glanced at her with dead eyes.

"Whatever you want." Hinamori sighed, then added, "But if you can graduate from the Spiritual Arts Academy in just one year, you'll definitely be highly regarded by Team 13, so you have to think this through carefully!"

#
Inside the Student Union Office.

Xin lay down on the armchair with his legs crossed on the desk in a very uncivilized manner.

"President?" Rukia walked in with a stack of documents in her arms and noticed that her president looked very worried.

"Rukia."

"President, what are you thinking about?" Rukia asked curiously.

"Thinking of Kogoro."

"what?"

Former vice president?
Rukia felt strange.

Xin Liangyang looked at the roof and said, "If Guang Goro saw me like this, he would definitely say that I have no manners."

Rukia chuckled.

Xin continued, "The principal told me about the new cultural festival and asked our student union to prepare it in advance and make detailed plans. We also want to invite more people to watch this year than last year."

Rukia asked, "President, are you worried about the cultural festival?"

"I'm worried about money!" Nobunaga sighed. "The funding for the Spiritual Arts Academy isn't much more than last year. Without Kogoro, where am I going to get the money? Kogoro-senpai, why don't you repeat the grade?!"

Lucia: "..."

Although Xin is not short of money now, the thank-you gift given to him by the Kuchiki family last time is more than enough to hold a cultural festival.

But when doing public work, there is no reason to pay for it yourself!

Shin muttered to himself again, "Speaking of which, the Kadori family is also an upper-class aristocracy. I wonder if the current vice-president is as generous as Kogoro..."

Rukia hesitated and said, "President, regarding the money problem...how about I think of a solution?"

As soon as Xin saw her expression, he knew what she was thinking and said, "Forget it. Your elder brother is not someone who is easy to talk to. If you really open your mouth, you will probably be scolded by him."

Rukia immediately said, "It's okay, as long as it relieves the Student Council... and the President."

But in the second half of the sentence, his voice became much lower.

She was also worried about whether this could be accomplished.

Xin shook his head: "No need."

He chuckled and said, "You should wait until you become the president of the student union to use your kindness."

Rukia was stunned: "I...I will be the president?"

"I think you're quite suitable."

Rukia shook her head repeatedly, "No, I can't do that! President, please stop joking!"

In her opinion, among her peers, Hinamori and Kira are much better than her in all aspects. Maybe in a few years, she will be able to take over the position of director of a department because of her qualifications, but she will never be the president.

"How do you know you can't do it, Rukia? Why haven't you changed your lack of confidence yet?"

Rukia secretly complained in her heart, this is not a question of self-confidence, this is the position of student union president!
Looking at all the members of the student union, I guess no one would dare to say that he or she is confident that he or she can take over the position of president.

Well... Renci doesn't count!
Nobuyoshi thought that after he graduated this year, the student union would be handed over to Rukia and the others. With Hinamori and Kira's assistance, he would be able to do a good job.

Next year, Rukia will be born for the third time. Also, as the eldest daughter of the Kuchiki family, it will not be a problem for her to become the president of the student council.

Rukia hesitated and said, "President, you have too high expectations of me. I think..."

Xin chuckled and said, "If you think you can't do it, then who can?"

"Kira and Momoko, they were both better than me during the same period."

"It's okay for one of them to be the vice president." Xin Ze said that the reason why he was able to become the president of the student union was because the captain of the 13th Division and the captain of the 10th Division came to support him.

Otherwise, this position would definitely be occupied by Kasumigaoji Mitsugoro.

After him, the position of student union president could only be held by aristocratic students, and the Spiritual Arts Academy might also make some adjustments to some of the student union's rules and regulations.

The reason why Xin can do whatever he wants in the Spiritual Arts Academy is because he is outstanding enough. The leaders of the Spiritual Arts Academy see his prospects and give him this face.

The student union president after Xin may not have as much power and privileges.

"I will only be a third-year student next year, and there will be many of my seniors in the student union..." Rukia was still making excuses and hesitating.

Seeing this, Xin slowly sat up, looked into her purple eyes, and suddenly smiled and said, "Rukia..."

"Are you willing to give up something that belongs to you?"
