I'm in a real religion, why are all the people who confess to me girls?

Why did Tenon establish a disciplinary department? She had heard from Katsuragi that Tenon was setting up the disciplinary department to curb uncontrollable violence and school bullying in the future.

Amane herself can be said to possess 'power', so logically she should ask the school to loosen its control over violence. Of course, this kind of thing cannot be brought up so directly, but it can be packaged and presented in a different way to make it acceptable to everyone.

For example, the school should emphasize competition based on merit. Given Tianyin's personality, she couldn't possibly be unaware of this. Why go to the other extreme?

There is a better way than to make violence widespread, turning schools into places where everyone trembles with fear, that is both acceptable and demonstrates the horror of violence.

That's a monopoly.

A monopoly on violence.

It's very simple. For example, Tianyin established a discipline department and then stipulated that no one in the school should use violence to solve problems or bully classmates. Anyone who violates this rule will be expelled.

So what do some belligerent people who can't vent their violence as they please do? The answer is to join the disciplinary committee.

The Disciplinary Department can use regulated violence against perpetrators to stop violence, meaning it can use methods such as entrapment to satisfy the desires of these militants.

Managing these warmongers is simple; you just need to be stronger than them. For example, the foundation left by Tianyin seems to be prepared for the complete monopoly of violence.

Now that the plan has already begun, why hasn't Tianyin taken any action?

"Didn't Tianyin assign you any tasks or positions when she was still the head of the disciplinary committee?"

Feeling increasingly agitated, Sakayanagi wanted to find a more comfortable sitting position, but as soon as she tried to move, she had to return to her previous dignified posture.

The reason is simple: the meeting room of the Discipline Inspection Department is different from the meeting rooms of any other office. The head of the Discipline Inspection Commission does not sit at the front of the room during the meeting. Instead, everyone sits around a round table, and the head of the Discipline Inspection Commission sits alone in the middle.

It looks very strange.

However, for people with strong observation skills and a strong desire for control, sitting in the middle gives them a sense of satisfaction that they have everything under control, and they can see and hear everyone's expressions and whispers.

From this vantage point, you can have complete control over everything in the conference room.

However, Sakayanagi didn't like this high-profile and flamboyant approach, but since it was Amane's arrangement, he had no choice but to go along with it.

While Sakayanagi had everything under control, her every move was being observed. She was constantly being watched by multiple eyes, a feeling that would make even those with weak willpower unable to speak fluently.

"Miyako-san didn't assign anything, but as for positions, I remember Katsuragi-san was assigned as the vice chairman of the disciplinary committee, and the archives were handed over to Matsushita-san, right?"

Ayanokouji glanced at Matsushita.

Matsushita, who was suddenly called out, was initially taken aback, and then his eyes met those of Sakayanagi.

"Um... Miyako-kun asked me to manage the archives, but the archives are completely empty, so..."

Matsushita tried to explain with some concern. Although she had known for a long time that Sakayanagi and Amane had a good relationship, Amane was now planning to lead Class B to Class A, which meant that a falling out with Class A was inevitable.

The reason why even Sato and Kushida in Class B have quieted down is because they are afraid of being caught doing something wrong by Sakayanagi and then being severely punished.

If Sakayanagi were to pursue her responsibility for mismanaging the archives, it would undoubtedly set a bad precedent for Class B.

"The archives..."

Sakayanagi's gaze lingered on Matsushita.

If it's Tianyin... she does seem to be Tianyin's type, hmph.

Sakayanagi inwardly curled his lip. Putting aside Matsushita's abilities, his mature and intellectual appearance alone was an essential element to attract a creature called Miyako Amane.

In other words, both Horikita and Matsushita give off an intellectual older sister vibe, even though their actual personalities and temperaments may be quite different from their appearances. However, Amane doesn't care about those things.

There was someone I knew who looked somewhat like Matsushita…

I remembered.

It's a maple flower.

Back then, Maple Flower always acted like the oldest sister, considering herself the oldest, but later...

"That's all for today's meeting. I'll take some time to organize the future plans and regulations for the Discipline Department. I'll need everyone's help to make that trip again then... Don't worry, there won't be any overly complicated rules."

Seeing Ibuki's somewhat bitter expression, Sakayanagi added another sentence.

Hearing Sakayanagi's assurance, Ibuki's expression gradually returned to normal. She didn't want too many troublesome things in her school life, but Ryuen simply wouldn't allow her to shirk her duties in the disciplinary committee. So she could only hope that Sakayanagi's rules would be a little more lenient.

Ayanokouji and the others nodded and got up to leave. Without even setting future goals, no matter how many meetings they held, they wouldn't come up with anything useful.

Since Sakayanagi is willing to take charge alone, everyone else is happy to have some peace and quiet. It's just a matter of coming here again later.

Just as everyone was leaving the meeting room, Sakayanagi suddenly called out to Matsushita.

"Matsushita-kun, could you please stay for a moment?"

"Huh? Me?"

Matsushita's body stiffened instantly.

"Yes, is there something troubling you, Matsushita-san?"

Sakayanagi's words seemed to be giving Matsushita a way out. As long as he lied and said that he had some urgent business, he could leave smoothly. After all, it was the first time that they had a formal exchange, and it was impossible to make the relationship too strained. However, when Matsushita looked at Sakayanagi's smile, a bad feeling welled up in his heart.

Matsushita's intuition told her that if she ran away this time, she might be harassed even more severely next time. Rather than being resented, she might as well stay and listen to what Sakayanagi had to say.

If she had to bring up the archives, she had her reasons. After all, what use was her archives if even the disciplinary department wasn't functioning properly?

"No, I'm just a little surprised. Is there something you need from me, Sakayanagi-san?"

Seeing that Matsushita was so sensible, Sakayanagi's smile became even brighter.

"There's nothing else, I'm just curious about the archives and I'm planning to go there. Since Matsushita-kun used to be in charge of the archives, I'm sure he can offer me some help."

After confirming that Sakayanagi had indeed been kept behind because of the archives, Matsushita gave a wry smile.

"I think I'll take Sakayanagi-san to the archives first."

Is there a problem with the archives?

When Sakayanagi saw Matsushita's strange expression, he immediately sensed something was wrong. Surely the archives couldn't be the same...

"Anyway... you'll see when you see it, Sakayanagi-san."

Matsushita didn't know how to describe the situation in the archives to Sakayanagi, so he could only bring Sakayanagi to the archives.

At first, Sakayanagi was somewhat pleased to see the well-arranged archives room; at least Amane seemed to have put effort into decorating it.

However, this good mood came to an abrupt end when Panasonic opened the storage cabinet in the archives.

It was empty inside!

Are you kidding me? Why is the archives room empty?!

The empty filing cabinet not only lacked the information she might need, but it also didn't contain the files of the disciplinary committee members.

Why is there such a situation?

It's unbelievable that a mere member of the Disciplinary Committee, Tianyin, left nothing behind and made no arrangements...

"Matsushita-kun, this..."

"There was nothing here from the beginning."

Matsushita pointed to the empty cabinet. She knew that such a statement would hardly satisfy Sakayanagi, but she was truly telling the truth.

It's true that Tianyin assigned her to manage the archives, but there was no follow-up explanation. Neither the Discipline Department nor the Student Union stored anything in there.

Since there's nothing there, there's no need to manage it.

So she only comes here once a month to clean the place, and there's nothing else she can do.

"wrong."

Just when Matsushita thought Sakayanagi would fly into a rage, Sakayanagi said something that left her completely baffled.

"If there really is nothing here, why did Tianyin put you in charge of the archives?"

"What if it's just a spur-of-the-moment decision, something I made casually..."

Matsushita felt that Amane had just assigned her this position casually, without sensing any deeper meaning.

"On a whim? If it were someone else, I could understand them giving up on an empty shell and arbitrarily assigning positions to department staff while they themselves went about their own business. But she's different."

"no the same?"

"Of course it's different, she's Miyako Amane!!!"

Sakayanagi's gaze hardened, and her tone became unusually firm.

Compared to Sakayanagi's confidence, Matsushita, even though he trusted Amane completely, was not fanatical and thus maintained a certain degree of composure.

"Even if you say that, Sakayanagi-san, there's still nothing here..."

"Not now, but what about later?"

"after……"

"I understand! As expected of the Heavenly Voice! So that's how it is, I understand everything now!"

Sakayanagi loosened his grip on the cane, which fell to the ground with a thud. He stroked the storage cabinet in the archives with one hand, his gaze gradually becoming fervent.

Completely bewildered, Matsushita witnessed the changes that had occurred in Sakayanagi and couldn't help but feel a sense of danger.

"Sakayanagi-san, are you alright? What did you realize?"

It seemed as if they were waiting for Matsushita to say this, and immediately responded to Matsushita's question at an extremely fast pace after Matsushita spoke.

"I understand everything now! Why did Tianyin only assign you to manage the archives and not assign work to anyone else? It's actually telling you that everything in the Discipline Department starts from this archives!"

After quickly finishing speaking, Sakayanagi bent down and picked up his cane.

However, this explanation failed to make Matsushita understand Sakayanagi's thoughts.

"So how do we begin?"

"Matsushita, that's a very good question. The answer is intelligence gathering."

Gathering intelligence? How did the Disciplinary Department get involved with gathering intelligence?

Matsushita felt like his brain couldn't keep up.

"If there's nothing here, what's the point of managing it? So, what Tianyin means is for you to gather intelligence. First, you need to fill the archives with a lot of intelligence before the Discipline Department can take the next step. I understand why Tianyin doesn't set any goals or regulations."

Isn't it just that Tianyin is too lazy to deal with it?

Matsushita, seeing Sakayanagi's fanatical expression, swallowed back the words that were already on the tip of his tongue.

Perhaps only monsters at the same level as Tianyin can see the deeper meanings they cannot normally see.

“If it were just an ordinary department, then the department’s rules and objectives would definitely be listed, or at the very least, there would be a few departmental rules. But Tianyin left nothing, which means that Tianyin believes she should not be the one to make these departmental rules. In other words, this department should bear extremely special responsibilities, so special that the head of the disciplinary committee is not the person in charge of this department at all.”

Upon hearing this, Matsushita's mind went completely blank. She had always thought of herself as a fairly intelligent person, but in front of Sakayanagi, she felt like an ignorant child, completely unable to understand what Sakayanagi was saying.

What were Tianyin's feelings when she entrusted the archives to her?

But she didn't notice anything at all...

The thought of failing Amane's trust caused Matsushita to feel waves of sharp pain in his stomach.

She thought she had tried her best, but unexpectedly, she hadn't even reached the threshold of intelligence.

"So who is in charge of this department?"

With the idea of ​​asking questions when you don't understand, Matsushita followed up with Sakayanagi's words and asked.

"Student council president! That means the disciplinary committee is a department that reports directly to the student council president. The disciplinary committee has the power to accept reports and can use intelligence gathering. Once enough intelligence is accumulated, the student council president can actually control everything in the school from the shadows."

"Then the Disciplinary Committee, as a department with a monopoly on intelligence and violence, will be directly under the command of the Student Council President. In this way, the authority of the Student Council will be inviolable, and the power of the Student Council President will be so great that it will inspire real fear."

"And any regulations for such a department should definitely come from the student council president. The student council president can decide what role the disciplinary department should play in the school, and the disciplinary department will play that role. Such an important department naturally cannot be controlled by the disciplinary committee head, so it's no wonder that Tianyin didn't take any further action. It's a pity..."

Unfortunately, Nagumo and Tenon parted ways.

Sakayanagi had already realized that Amane had started to establish the Disciplinary Committee when Horikita was still the nominal student council president. Her real purpose was to make it easier for Nagumo to reform the school and turn it into a paradise for the strong.

However, Nan Yun was actually wary of Tenon's strength and wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible. Under such circumstances, Tenon naturally had no need to show Nan Yun her perfect idea for the Discipline Department, so this half-finished Discipline Department was preserved.

Now all of this belongs to her, Sakayanagi Arisu.

As expected of Tianyin, she was able to create something so perfect and even left behind a key for a limited-time restart.

Why is it described as a time-limited restart?

What would happen if Panasonic withdrew from the Disciplinary Committee? No one would pay attention to the archives anymore, and no one would be able to connect the dots to the deeper meaning hidden within the company. The key to unlocking the entire framework would be lost as a result.

But just then, she arrived.

Ironically, it was Sakayanagi Arisu who became the manager of this department. The person who knew Amane best found the key to the Disciplinary Department that Amane herself had left behind from the slightest clues.

Is it a coincidence or... fate?
