I, Kousaka Kyousuke, the Knight of the Helping Table

"I haven't finished yet." Hiratsuka Shizuka signaled Yukino to calm down. She pointed a finger at Xiaoyu and said seriously, "You can join the club, but first you have to promise not to affect the students who come to ask for commissions."

"Yeah." For Xiaoyu, as long as other people don't take the initiative to interfere with her and Kyosuke's love life, she doesn't bother to pay attention to those apes.

"Second, during club activities, no, at school, you must make sure you don't do anything immoral." Xiaojing was looking at Kyosuke while saying this, and it was obvious that she was more worried that Kyosuke would do a series of things that would result in [life] loss, such as the "rooftop battle" in the face of Xiaoyu's temptation.

Kyosuke tried hard to look at Xiaojing with innocent eyes to show that he was innocent.

"The last one is that you have to complete a commission from the Service Department on your own within one month. If you fail to do so, you will never be allowed to step into the Service Department classroom again. At the same time, I will apply to the Academic Affairs Office for your class transfer." Xiao Jing stated her final request.

"Wait...wait a minute, why is this happening? Forget it, I don't want to join." Xiaoyu didn't want to lose the opportunity to be with Kyosuke just for the sake of an insignificant status as a club member.

However, Xiao Jing did not give her the right to refuse: "I'm sorry, if you don't accept it, then you have to leave now. The service department does not welcome irrelevant people except the client. Of course, if you quit now, I can agree not to submit the transfer application. How about it?"

"Migu...bullying, Migu..." Xiaoyu thought for a long time with her ears drooping, and finally she decided to give it a try, "I, Tamamonomae, agree to this challenge."

Then Xiaoyu waved to the boy who had been standing there from a while ago and said, "You were there before I went to the office. You should be here to ask Xiaojing for help. Tell me what happened quickly. Let me help you solve it."

"Okay." The boy was like a frightened little rabbit when he heard Xiaoyu calling him, but everyone felt that it was not cute at all for a grown man to have such a reaction.

After taking his seat, the boy explained to the members of the service club, "Actually, I'm Ohara Ida, the president of the school's hockey club."

Ohara's voice is quite soft, which does not match his 1-meter tall stature. After hanging out with the Round Table guys for a long time, Kyosuke is very confident about his estimated height.

Yawata was a little confused. Does Sobu High School have a hockey team? How come he had never heard of it?

Seeing everyone's confused expressions, Xiao Jing stepped out to explain, "Of course our school has a hockey team. We even have ice hockey and rugby teams. After all, although our school is famous for its admission rate, as one of the best schools in the Kanto region, our school still pays great attention to club activities."

"So, Ohara-san, is the hockey team encountering any problems?" Kyosuke felt that since the other party mentioned the title of the president of the hockey club first when introducing himself, he should not have come to the Service Club for the commission in his personal capacity but as a representative of the hockey club.

"It's like this..." Although Ohara was very shy from beginning to end, he still made things clear.

The hockey club of Sobu High School used to have a relatively glorious history. Although it cannot be said to dominate the country, it can at least be called a strong team in the Kanto region. Using SD as an analogy, the Sobu High School hockey team is a bit like the Takeshi team in Kanagawa Prefecture. Although it was beaten by the three strongest teams in Kanagawa, Kai, Xiang, and Ling, it is still one of the top four teams in the prefecture.

Unfortunately, with the graduation of the old players, the new players were unable to carry the banner of their predecessors, and the Sobu High School hockey team gradually became lonely. In the past five years, it has been ranked second to last in Kanto with a record of all losses. By the way, the last team directly forfeited because it could not even gather enough players to compete.

On the other hand, the Sobu High School football team was originally a small unknown club that existed just for the sake of existence. Last year, the super rookie Rukawa Kaede joined. Uh... I was wrong, it was the super rookie Hayato Hayama who joined that made the team shine again. In last year's high school league, the team won the fourth place in the county, and is only one step away from participating in the national competition.

Since the beginning of the new school year, the president of the football club has been happy and miserable. He is happy because of Ye Shan's outstanding performance last year, which has greatly increased the number of new members this year, greatly expanding the vitality of the football team and giving him hope of advancing to the national competition this year.

The painful thing is that after the number of members increased, the training ground was completely insufficient. After all, it was just a necessary club before (after all, we couldn't tell others that Sobu High School didn't even have a football team), so we were only allocated a standard football field for training. It was completely enough before with only a few people, but now with so many new people joining, it is completely insufficient.

If the newcomers don't get enough opportunities to play every day, the impatient high school students will definitely choose to leave. Once this happens for the first time, it will have a chain reaction. For a newly rising football team, the large number of newcomers leaving will definitely be a fatal blow.

So the other team turned their attention to the training ground of the hockey team next door. As a powerful team that was once in the limelight, the Sobu High School hockey team has quite perfect supporting training facilities, including a standard hockey field with a length and width of 91.4*55 meters. This size of space plus the already planted lawn can be completely transformed into a football field, and only the lines need to be redrawn.

Therefore, the president of the football club submitted a proposal to the school student union to convert the hockey field into a football field. However, for the student union, which is in charge of the school club budget, the hockey team requires huge equipment costs (such as sticks and protective gear, etc.) and the football team only needs to give each person a pair of sneakers and a set of uniforms. Obviously, the latter has an easier budget.

Anyway, there is not much difference in the cost of maintaining the field, so football with less additional budget is obviously more popular. So when the student union submitted the proposal to the school, it went a step further and asked to abolish the hockey team directly because the hockey team had no achievements for too long.

To make matters worse for the hockey team, the team's instructor, Chai Qi, who was originally the club's backbone, suddenly took a long-term leave. This left them without a teacher to speak up for them.

Anyway, for a football coach, the hockey team that has nothing to do with him, occupies such a big toilet but can't produce any shit should definitely roll away as far as possible.

So everyone was happy, except the hockey club members themselves.

"Snapped!"

Xiao Jing slapped the blackboard and said angrily, "This is really too much. Although the hockey team's performance is really terrible, it is completely wrong to forcibly deprive them of their club without consulting them!"

Compared to the hockey club that was about to be disbanded, Kyosuke was more worried about the blackboard that was attacked by Shizuka. If the blackboard was cracked, would he or Hachiman ask the student council for a budget to repair the blackboard? Those Grandets were real stingy people - they didn't want to spend a penny.

And are you sure you are on the side of the hockey team? I think Ohara-san is about to cry because of what you said. Kyosuke expressed deep sympathy to Ohara-san who was sitting there trying to hold back tears.

"I understand basically. So what we need to do is to stop the hockey club from being disbanded, right?" Yukino summarized Xiaojing's words and asked the most crucial question, "Then how do we do it? Lobby the student union?"

"I'm afraid it's not that easy. The student union of our school has always been known for its toughness." Hachiman felt that Yukino's proposal was not very feasible.

Xiaojing shook her head to deny Xueno's statement: "I have made an agreement with the school. The hockey team has a practice match next week that was scheduled long ago before the start of the high school league. If they can win, the school agrees to give the hockey team another year of probation. As long as they can show good results in the league, they can continue to operate; if they lose, then the hockey team will be disbanded immediately, no questions asked."

"So who's our opponent for the practice match?" Yui asked, raising her hand like a curious baby.

"It's Chiba Benzun High School, a famous strong team in the county."

"What about past achievements?"

"In the past three years, the two teams have played against each other 3 times, and all of them ended with Sobu High School losing. The biggest problem now is that no freshmen have submitted their applications for joining the club yet, and the old players from the previous class have graduated. The current hockey team is still two players short of the minimum 10 players required for the competition."

"How pitiful..." Yui no longer had any hope for this commission.

"Wait, Xiaojing, you said there are two people missing?" Kyosuke has already realized what Xiaojing wanted to do.

"Don't call me Xiaojing. That's right, there are two people missing, so..." Xiaojing pointed at Kyousuke and Hachiman and said, "Kousaka, Hikigaya, you two are temporary members of the hockey team, and all of you in the service club must work together to help the hockey team win."

"What?" Hachiman felt that with his small arms and legs, he might die if he participated in such an intense sport. It was even worse. The athletes were all strong and healthy like Ohara-san, and his chastity might be in danger. Although Ohara-san looked very gentle, he was not sure what he was like. Who knew what terrible things he would do when he got to the locker room?

This is difficult... Kyosuke pinched his nose and felt a little distressed. Xiaojing was just messing around. It was okay for him. After a special training during the spring break, his physical fitness was not a problem at all. However, Kyosuke was completely unsure whether Hachiman could participate in such a sport that required intense confrontation.

He glanced at Ohara, the student who had come to ask for help, and found that he was looking at him with tears in his eyes. In the end, he still felt guilty because it was because of him that the other party's original instructor left, which led to the hockey team being beaten by all parties in this crisis.

"Um... Ohara-san." Kyosuke decided to ask the other party's opinion first, "Do you want to win so badly? Or are you determined to win the next game?"

"Of course, otherwise we wouldn't have come to Mr. Hiratsuka to ask for help. But...but we really..." Ohara began to sob as he spoke.

"I see." Kyosuke looked at Xiaojing again, "Teacher Hiratsuka, this was just an informal practice match for you, right?"

"Yes."

"Then can we invite other foreign players? After all, with Hachiman's size, it would be bad if he got knocked off the field without a substitute."

"It's okay if you can find it." Xiaojing was a little confused about what Kyosuke was planning.

Kyosuke thought for a moment and asked again, "Is it okay if you're not from this school?"

"Well... in principle, it's not possible, but given the special circumstances, I will report it to the school."

This question made Xiaojing feel a little embarrassed, but in the end she agreed hesitantly.

"By the way, you have to pay attention to the matter of foreign aid. There must not be more than one foreign aid and they must be of the same age. Otherwise, it would be completely meaningless to let other teams come and play a fake game. And it can only be this time. The next regular league can only rely on Ohara and the others. Do you understand?" After explaining all the problems, Xiao Jing left the Service Club, but when she walked to the door, she added some conditions for inviting foreign aid.

"Don't worry, I know my limits." Kyosuke nodded in agreement with Xiaojing.

After Xiaojing left, Kyosuke took out his email and started editing it.

Yukino was a little surprised by Kyosuke's actions. She looked at Kyosuke's confident look and asked, "Why, do you know anyone who is good at hockey?"

"How is that possible? But I do have a solution." Kyosuke gave Yukino a confident smile after sending the email.

"For matters like this, please consult Sergeant Sosuke Sagara."

"Huh?" Yukino said that she didn't understand what the other person was saying at all.

Chapter 41: Yukino: I want to lend a helping hand to the weak, but this is too weak

"Kyosuke!" Hachiman used his nimble body to avoid the blockade of several members of the hockey team and hit the ball to Kyosuke who was waiting near the goal.

After Kyosuke received the ball, he hit it directly into the goal with his stick.

"As expected of my husband, he's so handsome~?" Xiaoyu held her face in her hands and acted like a fangirl when she saw Kyosuke's performance. Then she thought of something and scolded the members of the hockey team, "You guys should at least work harder. There are only two of us in my husband's team, but you have nine! I was counting on you to win the game to join the club! Be serious!!!"

"Okay... okay..." The members of the hockey team responded weakly after hearing Xiaoyu's words, which made Xiaoyu even more anxious.

"That's awesome! Go Tunjia, come on Kosaka!"

Yui, who was next to Xiaoyu, didn't think so much. She was extremely excited about the outstanding performance of Kyosuke and Hachiman, and would happily cheer for them every time they scored a goal.

"Is this really okay?"

Yukino, who was also standing on the sidelines, looked at the scoreboard that showed "5:0" on the side of the training ground and asked Xiaojing beside her, "Two newbies who have read the rules for less than 10 minutes can play like this. They have no chance of winning next week's game, right? I just checked and found out that the opponent is a long-established strong team in Chiba Prefecture. You didn't even give them the slightest chance."

Xiao Jing seemed to be scratching her hair hard, looking extremely helpless. She complained, "There is nothing we can do. This is the only condition the school can accept. Now we can only hope that the foreign aid that Takasaka invited can make a difference."

Yukino glanced at Shizuka and continued, "Where did you get this passionate manga teacher from? The idea that a few random people can win is something that only appears in novels. This kind of competitive team sports is hard to achieve with just one or two people. Yeshan was able to perform well because of the help of his partners who have been playing football with him since junior high school."

Xiao Jing lit a cigarette and responded irritably: "It doesn't matter. I didn't expect the hockey team to win the game anyway."

Yukino was a little confused about Xiaojing's intention. If that was the case, why did she let the Service Club accept such a worthless commission? What was the point of doing this?

"Well, I'm just annoyed with those old guys and that snob in the student union. They made a hasty decision without even giving me a chance to appeal." Xiao Jing said slowly after exhaling a puff of smoke.

Yukino felt that it was quite merciful not to close down these useless schools two years earlier.

"And what I need now is an excuse and opportunity to negotiate with the school. If they train hard these few days and perform well in the practice games, I can use these as bargaining chips to negotiate with the school. If I'm lucky, I might be able to keep the hockey team and half of the field. So, Yukinoshita, remember to take some videos and photos of their training. I'll use them as evidence." Xiaojing still told her final plan.

"What a good teacher, but you should be able to guess the ending, right? Instead of giving them so-called hope, wouldn't it be better not to give them any hope in the beginning?" Xueno didn't agree with Xiaojing's approach. First of all, according to her understanding, the school would definitely not agree with Xiaojing's request. On the other hand, in her opinion, those who waited until now to start working hard were not worthy of sympathy at all.

"No matter what, I have to give it a try. After all, these kids come to me for help because they trust me. So I have to live up to their trust. Of course, the premise is that these kids have to make corresponding efforts."

Yukino fell into deep thought as she looked at the members of the hockey team lying on the field gasping for breath.

Seeing that Yukino's heart was somewhat loosened, Xiaojing quickly struck while the iron was hot.

"And Yukinoshita said, lending a hand to those in need is part of your Service Club's activities. When you founded the Service Club, you mentioned to me that you wanted to 'change the world' by 'changing people's weaknesses', right? It's useless to just talk, you have to take action too."

Yukino was a little dissatisfied with Xiaojing for revealing her dark history of being an immature student. She secretly glanced at Yui and found that she didn't care about her, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Look, Yukinoshita. Hasn't someone given up yet?" Xiaojing pointed to the venue.

"If Mr. Hiratsuka you mean Takasaka, he seems to be quite confident in the foreign aid he hired. Although I think he is completely doing useless work." Yukino was thinking about how she could help and didn't even look in the direction Xiaojing pointed.

After hearing what Yukino said, Xiaojing's mouth formed the shape of "ω".

"Ah, I wasn't talking about Kousaka, I was talking about Tamamo."

"what?!"

Yukino then saw that Xiaoyu, who was completely fed up with the poor performance of the hockey team members, had rushed into the field with her teeth bared, as if she was trying to regain the confidence of the players through the threat of force, but this obviously had the opposite effect. Under Xiaoyu's threat, the players hugged each other and even threw their sticks aside and didn't want to care.

Xiaojing threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out, then she put her arm around Xueno's shoulders with a gossipy look on her face and came over.
