Real teaching, hypocritical gray life

Just at this moment, another gust of wind blew in the corridor.

This made me realize that autumn nights are very cool.

After returning to my seat, I found that the position of my bowl and chopsticks had changed, and a lot of food had been added to them.

I looked at Ichinose beside me in confusion, and then I saw her smiling.

"Because I thought it tasted good, I took the initiative to help pick it up. Luo Jun shouldn't mind, right?"

"I can't even thank you enough."

At least I followed Ichinose's gentleness and responded to her expectations.

However, before I could come to my senses, a hot towel was pressed against my face again.

"Did Luo go wash his face? There are a lot of small water droplets on the sides of his cheeks."

"Yes."

I responded vaguely.

Ichinose didn't ask me the reason. Maybe she had already determined that I was in a bad mental state.

All of a sudden, I understood what Shibata was talking about, and I felt very fortunate.

At least at this time, Ichinose's action of wiping my cheek was not noticed by others.

Chapter 179 What I Can Do

After the sports festival in early October, time unknowingly moved to the slightly cool mid-October.

We spent nearly ten days of "holiday" smoothly and welcomed a large-scale event in which all teachers and students in the school needed to participate - the general election of the next student union members, which is the so-called handover ceremony between the old and new student unions.

Although the participants involved all the teachers and students in the school, in fact, most of the first-year students did not know much about it. In this transition ceremony, only Ichinose, who stood on the stage and silently watched the scene on and off the stage, could pay attention to it.

As the only first-year student selected as a member of the student union, his position is quite eye-catching.

"Then, please allow President Horikita to give his final remarks."

As the emcee spoke, the former student council president, Horikita Manabu, began to slowly walk towards the microphone prepared on the stage.

Even after stepping down, he still exudes the leadership qualities he always boasts of, and there is no sign of him stepping down, for which the student union members show due respect.

"I have led the student union for about two years, and while I am proud of it, I am also very grateful for your support and cooperation. Thank you all."

He was able to become the student union president in his first year, which also represents his superior abilities.

Without much emotion, just a brief greeting, former President Horikita announced his departure, then quietly stepped back and returned to his original position.

Are there no moving words or warnings to those who come after you?

These are ordinary things that men should have done but they had no choice but to greet each other solemnly and fully.

Despite this, the student union members standing on the stage always maintained a serious attitude.

Then the new student union president was invited to the center of the speech stage.

"President Horikita, thank you for your hard work. Next, I would like to invite the new student council president, Nanyun Miyabi from Class 2A, to give a speech."

The new student council president, Nan Yun Masa, who I had met several times before, stepped forward, and the way he walked to the microphone showed his calmness.

Ichinose on the stage was also taking the handover activity seriously.

"Hello, teachers and classmates. I am Nan Yun from Class A, Grade 2."

"First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to President Horikita for the contributions he has made to the student council and this school so far. Thank you for your strict and passionate teaching. I would like to express my deep respect for being able to work with a student council president who has exerted his leadership to the extreme among all the previous students."

Nanyun said this and at the same time hypocritically nodded deeply to Horikita-senpai, but the other party was unmoved.

Then he looked at all the teachers and students in the school again.

"Please allow me to introduce myself again. I am Nanyun Miyabi from Class A, second year. This time I will be the president of the Student Union of Advanced Incubation High School. I hope you will give me your guidance from now on."

So far, Nanyun has been very polite in front of everyone, completely different from the true feelings he showed at the sports festival.

Clearly, he had been targeting and provoking me recklessly before, and even the content of the conversation was a bit childish, but in the blink of an eye, the atmosphere changed to steady and he smiled slightly.

“Although this is a little sudden, I want to assure everyone first that I will change the term of office, appointments, and general election methods of the Student Union.”

"President Horikita changed the election from December to October, and I thought it was an experiment. The arrangement of changing the next student council at an early stage had a certain effect. So I judged that the new student council should move on to the next stage."

Having said this, Nanyun deliberately paused to give us some buffer time.

However, in reality, this does not make much sense to students who are not interested in the student union.

"I want to make the term of office of the student union president and its members indefinite, so that they can continue until graduation. At the same time, I want to abolish the general election system and the number of people required. I want to create a system that can accept student union members at any time."

"That is to say, as long as they are excellent and necessary talents, they can participate in activities as a member of the student council at any time and in any number. If it is judged that this person cannot adapt during the term of office, a majority vote will be used at the meeting to remove him or her."

"With this as a start, I would like to declare to all the students, teachers, and members led by the previous student council president that in order to build the next school... I will first destroy the school that has been protected by previous student councils until now."

Nanyun said firmly.

I noticed that Ichinose behind me frowned, showing a bit of dissatisfaction.

Was it because he was uncomfortable with the changes that President Nanyun wanted to make, or was it because he couldn't accept the statement that denied all the achievements of the previous student council?

Anyway, I can understand that Ichinose didn't fully accept the appointment of the new student council president.

"Originally, the new system I had in mind should have been implemented immediately. Unfortunately, that cannot be done. After all, there are many inconveniences for the new student council president."

Nagumo looked at former President Horikita, with the new and old student council members behind him.

But he immediately turned his attention back to the students.

"I promised you that a great revolution will happen in the near future. So--"

"Students with ability can move up, and students without ability can fall down. I will transform this school into a school that truly values ​​ability above all else, so please give me your guidance."

The stadium fell silent for a moment at this announcement.

But then, almost all the second-year students shouted with joy and excitement. Perhaps there was a battle between the second and third years that we first-year students didn't know about.

This incident makes people think so.

But I care more about the promise of something else.

I secretly glanced at former President Horikita, and our eyes met.

0

"You promised me not long ago to set up security for Ichinose, but you abdicated today?"

In an inconspicuous corner of the college, I sat on a chair for students to rest and confronted former President Horikita who was standing on the side pillar.

What a terrible coincidence! I just wanted to wander around the school and wait for Ichinose to show up. But I didn't expect to bump into former President Horikita by accident, and Secretary Tachibana was following behind him as usual.

Although Secretary Tachibana was not at ease with me, a "problem child", he still listened to the words of former President Horikita and left the two of us alone.

Hearing my question, former president Horikita pushed his glasses up nonchalantly.

"I will certainly fulfill my promise to you. Although the current student council president is Nanyun, there are many inconveniences in implementing his plan. In addition... don't you know about this?"

"I'm not interested in the development of the student union... From what you just said, can I understand that the actual power of the student union is still in your hands?"

"The position of student council president represents power, so the real power is definitely in the hands of Nanyun Masa. But if nothing unexpected happens, a battle will break out between the third and second years. I can contain his general direction. At least before I leave this school, he can't make any big moves that threaten you. Except for a small number of dispatches."

In other words, before former President Horikita leaves, the one we need to worry about is not President Nanyun, but the people around us first-year students who want to frame us..........

I tried to filter out the actions of various people and their final possibilities in my mind.

What appears before my eyes now are just the leaders of each class on the surface. What kind of people exist under their classes is something worth pondering.

"........Thank you for your advice."

After saying thank you, I no longer pursued any empty things. For Ichinose, having this level of protection now is enough. It is impossible to expect perfection in the future.

I can make changes step by step......

If I could really endure that pain until the end.

I straightened my clothes slightly, stood up and was about to leave, but former President Horikita didn't seem to want to end the conversation.

"The second semester will be over soon. I don't have much time left on campus."

"........."

Yes, what former President Horikita said makes a lot of sense.

A year will pass in the blink of an eye.

As long as you indulge in something and pursue it with all your might, you will forget the existence of time and your life will pass by quickly.

Whether it is an individual or other people around you.

Those who are indifferent are those who are accustomed to it.

"After this, I'm not sure I can contact you."

"So, before I leave, I have something to tell you about the current student council president, Nanyun Masa."

"........I don't think I need to know this. It would be better to discuss it with Ichinose who is affiliated with the student council than with me, a first-year student who has nothing to do with it."

The current student council president, Nana Yunga from Class A, second year.

I don't deny the fact that his various ability values ​​are very good. In addition, it is not an easy task to be able to upgrade the B class he leads to the A class in a short period of time.

Although the situation in our class is the same, the nature is different.

But even so, what does it have to do with me?

As long as he doesn't provoke me or touch what I want to achieve, all my weak spots.

Whether he is Nanyun or something else, it has nothing to do with me.

"I had no intention of telling you. It might be a good idea to train Ichinose at this stage, but she is not suitable to deal with the changed situation now."

"........."

I slightly calmed down my restless heart that wanted to leave.

Maybe it wouldn't be a bad thing to know more information.

"I have always adhered to the traditions that this school has built. That's because I agree with the system and rules of this school, and I always think that it is the right thing to do. However, Nanyun is trying to subvert those foundations. Next year, this school will probably be filled with an unprecedented number of dropouts."

"........It's not something I can really understand. All I understand is that he wants to make a big change."

"That may be true for you, but it's different for Ichinose."

I felt slightly annoyed by his repeated mention of it, but no matter how I thought about my current situation, I was terribly calm.

My own situation may be more confusing than I thought.

".............You successfully elected as the student council president in your first year, and although President Nanyun is not as outstanding as you, he also joined the student council in his first year. Don't you also have a certain responsibility for this?"

"Maybe so."

Former President Horikita did not shy away from admitting his mistakes.

"This may be the biggest mistake I made after joining the student council. I failed to train a successor. Among the second-year students, the only one who made me feel talented was Nagumo, but he grew greatly in a way that was different from my approach. The other second-year students can also be said to be almost all under Nagumo's control."

".......Based on the current position of the first-year classes, the competition between the classes is mutual, so it seems that unified control is impossible."

Is this what is called an inconsistent policy?

Although a team cancer like me cannot take this into account, I can understand that the implementation of the plan must be quite chaotic.

"You should also know that when Ichinose knocked on the door of the Student Union, I did not directly recruit him, but deliberately put his admission on hold."

"........."

"It's not just Ichinose. There's also a Katsuragi among the first-year students this year, and I ignored them all."

At this point in the conversation, I have realized the problem.

“…Because of Nanyun Miyabi?”

Former President Horikita nodded.

"Both of them are very outstanding students. It is precisely because of their sheer excellence that I am worried that they might be affected if they were placed under Nanyun's control."

"Then why did you bring Ichinose into the sect?"

Now I realize that my voice was a bit mechanical and stiff, but former President Horikita didn't care.

"Because I learned of your existence."
