My daily life in love is too contrary to my character.

Not wanting to cause himself any trouble, Shiraishi Sawa hesitated for a moment, "How about I go back and finish your homework for you, teacher?"

"After you help the teacher with this, you won't have to do any math homework this semester."

"I'll come find you after class at noon, teacher."

--

Soon the last class of the morning was over. Mingchuan Middle School has a cafeteria, so not all students brought their own lunch. Those who didn't bring lunch went to the cafeteria in groups, while those who did gathered in the classroom in small groups to eat together.

Although Shiraishi Sawa is quite good at cooking, he never has time to prepare his own lunchbox. Moreover, the school cafeteria offers a price subsidy, so it's not expensive and he usually chooses to eat there.

However, remembering Mr. Origami's instructions, Shiraishi Sawah walked towards the teachers' office.

The office was filled with desks piled high with books. There weren't many teachers left at the moment; most were chatting or eating their lunchboxes.

"Shiraishi-kun, over here." Seeing Shiraishi Sawashu standing at the door, Gennai Ichiro peeked out from behind a stack of books and waved to Shiraishi Sawashu.

Shiraishi Sawa walked over and stood next to Gennai Ichiro, watching him quickly grade the homework he had received that day.

"Teacher Gennei, what task do you wish to assign me?"

“Well, it’s like this,” Gennai Ichiro stopped grading homework, placed his fingers in an arch on the table, and looked at Shiraishizawa Hide. “A friend of mine has a child who also studies here. He joined the student council and has a very good relationship with his department head. He is very trusted and serves as the department’s freshman representative. However, he recently had to take a month off due to some personal reasons. This child is quite thoughtful and felt that this would cause his department head a lot of trouble, so he begged me to help him find an excellent person to replace him. That’s why I thought of you, teacher.”

"Teacher, I'm really not interested in activities that take up so much of my free time. I need to work in my spare time anyway. Maybe I should just do my math homework instead," Shiraishi Sawa replied after some mental calculation.

"So, as long as you can guarantee that your grades don't drop, you don't have to do any math homework this semester, and you can skip the two math classes a week, which are the last period in the afternoon. You can allocate your time as you like, how about that?"

The student council only holds one meeting a week, this afternoon, which is Friday. The workload isn't much, so please consider this a favor to the teacher, okay?

Shiraishi Zexiu looked at the teacher's sincere gaze and, considering it was only a month away, nodded helplessly.

"Excuse me, teacher, which department do I need to go to, and how do I get there?"

"Organization Department, the Student Union will have a meeting at 4:30 this afternoon. The meeting will be held on the far left of the top floor of the club building. There will be signs indicating the location of each department. Just go and sit down. Someone will guide you to the rest."

"Understood, teacher. I'm going to eat now."

In the afternoon, Shiraishi Sawa used the "Probe" skill on the girls in the class every hour, but unfortunately, he did not find any target who could trigger the mission.

"Looks like the system is a total looks-obsessed person too." At 4:05, school let out on time, but Shiraishi Zexiu didn't rush to the meeting place.

"Grandma Ueno, I can't come to your part-time job tonight. For some reason, I need to join the student council for a month. There are meetings every Friday, and the exact duration of the meetings is uncertain. So I need to ask for leave every Friday for the next month. You can deduct it from my salary or I can make up the work time for you on the weekend." Shiraishi Sawa Hide sent a leave request text message to Grandma Ueno.

"It's alright, Zexiu-kun, it's nothing. You don't need to make up for the extra hours, and your wages will still be paid according to the original hours." Ueno-fumi quickly replied to the text message.

"But that's not fair to those who enter the mulberry grove."

"Then I'll just pay her an extra day's wages every week."

Before Shiraishi Sawa could reply, Ueno's mother-in-law sent another text message.

"Let's post it for a couple more days, since Chiyo-san might feel lonely by herself."

After calculating his salary, Shiraishi Zexiu began to crave solitude.

--

When we arrived at the entrance of the student council meeting room, it was already 4:25.

Shiraishi Sawa pushed open the door and went in; the atmosphere inside made him feel a little strange.

Almost all the seats in the room were occupied, and everyone was sitting upright, waiting for something. When someone came in, everyone's eyes turned to him, except for the girl with the high ponytail sitting at the head of the table who was still writing something.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Shiraishi?" A tall man standing in front of him with the 'Organization Department' signboard stood up and asked Shiraishi Sawahide.

Upon hearing the name, the girl with the prominent head raised her head and glanced at Shiraishi Sawa, but immediately looked away and continued writing while staring at the paper in front of her.

That single glance was enough to amaze Shiraishi Sawa. Her features were exquisite and captivating. Among the people Shiraishi Sawa knew, only Ichiyo Ichii could compare to her. But the girl's most distinctive characteristic was: coldness.

Shiraishi Sawa saw that the girl's face was completely expressionless, her eyes calm as still water. From the paper on the table to Shiraishi Sawa and back to the paper on the table, her expression remained unchanged, like a machine.

Without any hesitation, Shiraishi Sawa used [Probe] on the girl.

【Name: Soga Wulian】

Age: 17

Intelligence: +5

[Stamina: 0]

[Charm: +5]

[Intelligence: Triggerable quests (quests will randomly appear during your interactions with the target)]

Sure enough, it was an object that could trigger the task.

"Shiraishi-kun? Are you Shiraishi-zawa Hideki, here to temporarily replace Hosokawa Yuuto? I am Oki Taichi, the head of the Organization Department."

When he came to his senses, the Minister of Organization was already standing in front of him. Taichi Oki was very tall, a head taller than Shiraishi Sawa, who was 188 cm tall. He also looked like he loved fitness, with a muscular body. Shiraishi Sawa nodded and handed Taichi Oki a pre-edited document.

After reading the information, Taichi Oki nodded to Hideaki Shiraishizawa, led him back to the location of the organization department, and then addressed everyone present:

"This is Shiraishi Sawa Hide, a top student who consistently ranks in the top three in his class in the first year of high school. He will be a member of my club for the next month. He has been having some throat problems recently, so he is unable to speak. Therefore, I will be speaking on his behalf. I hope everyone will understand."

Shiraishi Zexiu suddenly felt a gaze fixed on him. He looked up and met the eyes of a pair of calm, still eyes. After noticing Shiraishi Zexiu looking over, the owner of the eyes immediately looked down.

Taiki Oki began introducing the names and departmental functions of the department heads present to Hideaki Shiraishi from one end of the table to the other. Hideaki Shiraishi nodded in acknowledgment.

"This is our student council vice president, Shimizu Yoshiko." Contrary to her delicate name, Shimizu Yoshiko herself is extremely "robust," with some muscle definition even visible on her body.

"This is our student council president, Soga Kirei."

Shiraishi Sawa looked at the girl with long-standing curiosity, but this time the girl didn't even look up.

Taichi Oki, however, seemed used to it and didn't wait for Soga Kiriren to look up. He pulled Shiraishi Sawa to sit down.

"Don't mind Shiraishi-kun, President Su has always been like this. She is very capable but not good at socializing. Interestingly, the way the president communicates with us is the same as you are now. She usually writes things down for the vice president, and then the vice president reads them to us."

"welcome."

The sudden, clear sound brought the conference room back into silence.

The girl who made the sound still did not look up.

"Welcome, Shiraishi... classmate."

Chapter 6 Is Shiraishi really called Shiraishi?

Everyone in the conference room looked at each other in disbelief, and gradually began to whisper among themselves.

"Did the president just say 'welcome'? Did I hear that right?"

"I've been in the student council for over a year, and I've heard President Su say less than ten sentences. This is the first time I've heard anyone other than the vice president's name mentioned..."

The meeting room gradually became noisy.

Just as Shiraishi Sawa was about to ask Oki Taichi what the concept of this was, a loud bang was heard.

"What's all the noise about? Do you all have so much nonsense to say when the chairman is speaking?! Everyone shut up! We'll start the meeting when it's time!"

The speaker was Vice President Shimizu Yoshiko, and the loud noise just now was also caused by her slamming her hand on the table. Shiraishi Sawa could feel that Shimizu Yoshiko had a great intimidating effect on the student council members present, because everyone immediately lowered their heads and remained silent, returning to the upright posture that Shiraishi Sawa had seen when he pushed open the meeting room door.

Taichi Oki was in the same boat, but at this moment he was pursing his lips and gritting his teeth, whispering a message to Hideaki Shiraishi.

"Besides relaying President Su's wishes, Vice President Shimizu is also in charge of managing the student council. In a sense, she is the real president, and everyone is afraid of her. It is said that she is also a black belt in Taekwondo."

“I agree. It’s unlikely that the vice president would have had any high school romance experience.”

"I will try my best to pursue her!"

One sentence threw Shiraishi Sawa into disarray, and he didn't even bother typing anymore, "Huh???"

"Everyone in the Organization Department knows about this. One of the Organization Department's tasks is to help the Minister win over the Vice President!"

"Senior, this is insubordination."

Before the two could continue their conversation on this topic, Shimizu Yoshiko's phone beeped.

"The meeting is now officially open. Each group will take turns to report on their work this week!"

The meeting began, but Shiraishi Sawa was uninterested. He had no interest in this kind of report and listened for a few minutes before taking out paper and pen from his backpack and starting to repeatedly write the "Chrysanthemum Picking Post" that he had practiced the day before:

"I do not know how many days have passed. Look at the end, will we be picking chrysanthemums on the ninth day? I wish to go together on that day, but I do not know if it will be sunny. I am very pleased that Lun and the others have returned."

Half an hour into the report, Shiraishi Sawa's phone suddenly lit up.

"Shiraishi-kun, is your fragile heart too afraid to see me?" This was a message from Ichiyo.

"It's the student council. Didn't Grandma Ueno explain the reason to you?"

"I did say that, but please forgive me for finding it hard to believe everything you say right now, Shiraishi-kun. After all, I don't even know if your throat is better now."

"..." Shiraishi Sawa was speechless.

"Hey, Mr. Liar, what was the point of your clumsy acting and lies yesterday?"

Shiraishi Sawa checked the time: 5:03 PM. Normally, this is the time when the supermarket is busiest, right after the work handover.

"Shouldn't you be busy right now? Because of me, you can now get two extra days' pay every week. You should thank me instead of holding this against me."

"Shiraishi-kun, you're really bad at changing the subject. Ueno-baba said she was worried I wouldn't be able to handle it, so she asked all the original staff to stay. Now I'm actually more relaxed. As for thanking you, it's clearly you, Shiraishi-kun, who started this and then abandoned me, yet you can still brazenly attribute Ueno-baba's consideration for me to you. Your shamelessness really shocks me."

"Such a good thing! Could you please join the student council sometime so I can experience this kind of treatment?" Shiraishi Sawa was genuinely shocked by this kind of benefit.

Grandma Ueno has become Shiraishi Sawa's favorite person in Tokyo.

"Student council? What's the point of the student council? It's just a waste of my time."

“I totally agree. I’m listening to their boring reports right now, and chatting with you is the only way to pass the time.”

"Shiraishi-kun, do you mean I'm just a tool you use to amuse yourself when you're bored? You're really disappointing."

"Don't say things that could be misunderstood, Yiru Sang. You're not like that."

"uh-huh?"

"You not only fail to bring me pleasure, but you also give me a stomachache."

"Ichiryu-san, could you add me on Line? My throat is a bit sore from inflammation, so I'm not really able to talk. Let's keep in touch via Line first." Ichiryu Chiyo repeated what Shiraishi Sawa Hide had told her yesterday.

"Don't go in like that... Yesterday was an accident. Would you believe me if I said there was a miracle drug in my lunchbox...?"

"Once we get to Sang, please add me on Line. My throat is a bit sore from inflammation, so I'm not really able to talk. Let's keep in touch via Line first." X10.
