Hiratsuka Shizuya was quite proud; she thought, "I didn't misjudge you!"

"What I'm more curious about is that giving a speech on stage doesn't seem like something I should be doing. I think Utaha-senpai would be more suitable than me," Fushimi Makoto said, pointing out Utaha's name.

The principal chuckled and shook his head: "If it were a few months ago, I would definitely have chosen Kasumigaoka. But things are different now. Don't you know how highly your classmates regard you? Now everyone sees you as the most difficult mountain to climb."

The surrounding teachers nodded in agreement.

They were well aware that Fushimi Makoto's influence at the school was growing.

It's not just girls who talk about him; boys do it too.

Because of his immense influence, some student unearthed a video of him fighting during a trip, and in the comments section of that video, someone claimed that he easily took down seven thugs while fishing.

This led some guys in the group who admired strength to privately call him "one against seven".

"Since the principal has put it this way, it would be impolite of me to refuse." After thinking for a moment, Fushimi Makoto agreed.

"You agreed?" the principal asked in surprise.

“Of course.” Fushimi Makoto nodded. “There’s been a study spree at school lately, and everyone’s been working so hard, so I’m planning to give them some benefits.”

"What are the benefits?" At this point, Hiratsuka Shizuka and the others craned their necks.

Fushimi Makoto kept everyone in suspense: "You'll find out tomorrow."

The principal couldn't help but laugh and said, "We're all elders, can't you show some respect?"

Fushimi Makoto pointed at the Go board: "Elder, you have already lost."

"..."

The principal awkwardly picked up a chess piece, his fighting spirit ignited: "Again!"

It wasn't until the principal suffered a crushing five-game losing streak that Fushimi Makoto was jokingly "kicked out" of the principal's office.

Hiratsuka Shizuka and Matsukaze Mayu followed him, and to avoid their colleagues noticing anything amiss, they tacitly pretended to be curious about the perks Fushimi Makoto had just mentioned.

"Are you preparing a speech tonight? Mayu and I can help you," Hiratsuka Shizuka asked with concern.

Mayu Matsukaze, who was standing nearby, nodded and said, "I can help you look up the information."

"Are you sure you're only helping me look up information?" Fushimi Makoto asked, somewhat amused.

He could sense the restlessness in their hearts.

Hiratsuka Shizuka and the other girl both had flushed faces and remained silent.

When Fushimi Makoto saw their reaction, he knew he had guessed correctly.

There's an old saying that goes something like this: two people who can get along well and even become best friends (or buddies) either share the same values ​​or have similar tastes.

As for their desire to join forces in the war?

Fushimi Makoto's answer was: You still need to practice.

Chapter 310 The Joy of Poetry

After Fushimi Makoto and Hirazuka Shizuka parted ways, they went to the activity room.

When Nakano Nino asked him why, he didn't hide anything and told him everything.

"Are you going to give a speech?"

This news shocked everyone.

Clearly, no one expected that Makoto Fushimi would be assigned this task by the principal.

"As long as I give a speech tomorrow, our club's funding will be as much as we need in the future," Fushimi Makoto revealed another shocking piece of news.

"Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?" Yukino asked incredulously.

But on second thought, given the principal's appreciation for Fushimi Makoto, he might actually be able to make such a promise.

This promise is just too weighty.

After all, club activity funds have never been plentiful, even for the most popular baseball club in school.

"Do you really have as many as you want?" Shiyu suddenly asked.

Fushimi Makoto nodded.

Shi Yu's expression changed rapidly.

She also turned to look at Yukino.

Yukino did not respond to Utaha's gaze.

Because she could see the fighting spirit in the other party's eyes.

If nothing unexpected happens, she will most likely want to use the funds to film something.

Of course, forget about making a short film. With the talent that Shiyu has shown so far, it is simply not enough to support her in completing a short film.

Maybe it would be okay for a few episodes of a short drama...

Yukino understood this in an instant, so she didn't bother with Utaha's fighting spirit.

However, the good news brought by Fushimi Makoto also piqued her interest.

With sufficient funding, the next short film is no problem at all.

Yukino couldn't help but recall what she had said to Makoto Fushimi before.

As long as the other party helps persuade those friends, he can then motivate everyone and continue to lead the film set.

Unbeknownst to her, Yukino had also been greatly influenced by Makoto Fushimi.

Originally, filming would never have been part of her life, but now she's becoming increasingly interested in directing behind the scenes.

Utaha didn't mind Yukino ignoring her. She turned around and sat down, but then suddenly realized that her good friend Eriri hadn't spoken for a long time.

Her gaze followed, and she saw Eriri holding her study notes, a pen in one hand, intently working on practice problems.

Shiyu: "???"

Is there something wrong with my eyes, or is there something wrong with Eriri's brain?

Eriri said, "I didn't want to either! It's my own body moving!"

"Sawamura-kun, can I do the problems with you?" Nakano Satsuki walked over with a hopeful look on her face.

Eriri wanted to say that she didn't like studying at all, but what came out of her mouth was: "Welcome to my study group."

Nakano Satsuki nodded happily.

Shi Yu had even more question marks above her head.

She glanced at the others instinctively and found that everyone was doing their own thing, seemingly unconcerned about Eriri's unusual behavior.

She then realized that apart from Makoto Fushimi, Yukino, and herself, the others present were not familiar enough with Eriri. Of course, they wouldn't understand that this blonde twin-tailed girl didn't actually like studying.

But Fushimi Makoto was teaching Nino and the others about photography, so Utaha didn't disturb them and simply sat down next to Yukino.

Yukino looked up and cast a clear gaze at her.

That means: Speak quickly.

Utaha said softly, "Eri is acting a little strange. She seems to have suddenly become very interested in studying."

“This is a good thing,” Yukino said, seemingly unconcerned.

“I know it’s a good thing, but you should know Yukinoshita, right? She’s never brought her study notes here before.”

"She might have been provoked."

"Stimulate?"

"Ah."

Yukino nodded slightly and calmly analyzed, "Ichika and the others have been getting tutoring from Fushimi, and their grades have gradually improved. You and I already had good grades, so this leaves Sawamura at the bottom of our group."

Shi Yu paused for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "That's an angle I hadn't considered. Thinking about it carefully, perhaps that's really the case."

She immediately stood up.

Yukino casually asked, "What are you going to do?"

Shi Yu smiled and said, "It's rare to see her enjoy learning. I'll go help her with her questions."

Yukino: "Are you sure it's not because you saw the resistance and struggle on Sawamura's face that you wanted to watch the fun?"

"She's my friend, why would I watch her make fun of me?" Shi Yu denied, swaying her hips as she walked over.

In fact, she had noticed Eriri's struggling expression earlier.

With Yukino's analysis, Eriri in her eyes becomes someone who wants to catch up with everyone's grades, but because she doesn't want to study, she's always thinking about giving up.

How interesting this scene is!

Shi Yu's lips curled up in a smile.

She found it particularly amusing to watch Eriri, who was as delicate as a porcelain doll, continue to struggle with her dilemma, experiencing both pain and pleasure, with her by her side.

Sometimes, Shiyu really has a really bad sense of humor.

Half an hour later, everyone went home, and Shiyu, satisfied, took Eriri's hand and left.

Just seeing Eriri's puffed-up little face made her want to mimic Fushimi Makoto's tone and exclaim with immense delight, "So cute!"

"Eri, what are your plans for the future?" she asked.

"I don't know, let's go home first." Eriri said with a bitter face. According to her schedule, she would have dinner and rest for a while before starting her workout.

"Would you like to come to my house?"

"Huh? Is that okay?"

Eriri's eyes lit up.

If I have Shiyu-senpai with me during my workout, I won't feel too uncomfortable.

What's that saying again: Because you've been caught in the rain, you have to tear other people's umbrellas apart.

Eriri's feelings weren't quite that dramatic, but she really wanted someone to sweat with her.

It would be even better if this person were Makoto Fushimi.

she thought.

The two quickly agreed to go home together, but they ran into Makoto Fushimi while passing by a supermarket.

"I'm planning to make some popular Chinese food tonight, would you like to join me?" Fushimi Makoto invited, carrying a lot of ingredients.

Eriri shook her head and refused: "I won't go."

Shiyu: "I'll go."

Yinglili: "?"

Fushimi Makoto looked at the stunned, defeated sage and asked, "Are you in a hurry to get home and train?"

Eriri really wants to say that she also wants to have dinner at your house, and then you can exercise with her.

But her proud nature kicked in, and after a moment's hesitation, she finally made the reverse sprint: "Yes, I'm going home to train. I don't have time to waste on anything else lately!"

Shiyu suddenly smiled happily.

Thank you, Eriri.

You never compete or fight; you truly are my best friend.

Watching Fushimi Makoto and Utaha's departing figures, Eriri stomped her foot in annoyance, muttering, "Why didn't Fushimi ask me a single question?"

Chapter 311 Nino Nakano: I hate encrypted calls

In Shiyu's mind, Eriri would create a rare moment for the two of them to spend together because of her tsundere personality and her tendency to say one thing but mean another.

But to her surprise, when she arrived at the apartment entrance with Fushimi Makoto in a good mood, she froze on the spot.

Because at that moment, there were two beautiful figures standing outside the door.

Those are Yukino and Nakano Nino.

What's happening here?

Shi Yu was filled with questions.
