"It's not that I don't want to, it's just..." Xia Shi opened the door and looked at Xiao Jing with a dangerous smile, speechless.

Ci Xuanji held the documents and placed them on Shizuka Hiratsuka's desk.

After the two exchanged a few words, the squad leader smiled at Xia Shi and then left the office.

Seeing this, Xia Shi walked over helplessly.

"Xiao Jing, we have no grudges against each other, why do you treat me like this?"

"Stop being naughty." Xiao Jing interrupted his spell and got straight to the point, "Are you interested in being the executive committee member this time?"

Xia Shi's face was full of question marks when he heard this.

Not a trilateral meeting, but something related to the cultural festival?

Seeing his confused expression, Xiao Jing explained, "What's the name of the male monitor of our class?"

"Hagiwara-san?"

When Xia Shi said this name, he was not quite sure.

There are two class monitors in the second-year F class, one is Ayatsuji Ci and the other is him.

His presence is extremely low, just like Kato's.

However, his low presence is purely due to Akatsuji Kotori.

It’s like those emperors who were deprived of power. They only have the title but no power.

"Yes, that's him." Xiao Jing continued, "When I called Xuanji over at noon, I also called him, but he didn't seem to be willing to do so."

What the hell?

Xiaojing, are you looking for an internal appointment?

Although no one wants to be an executive committee member, if you do it this way, won’t it feel a bit like being appointed?

Not so good?

However, in Xia Shi's opinion, the work of the executive committee member is quite attractive. As long as he runs errands, he can say goodbye to class activities and avoid a lot of trouble.

"Why doesn't he want to be an executive committee member?" Xia Shi felt that there was something hidden.

"Because..." Hiratsuka Shizuka rubbed his temple, "He said that if he were to be an executive committee member with Ayatsuji, he might as well die."

“……” Xia Shi blinked.

Xia Shi had the honor of witnessing the darkness of the class monitor, and he suddenly felt a greater sense of identification with the poor classmate Hagiwara.

It turns out that I am not alone.

The number of members of the Ayatsuji Kotobuki resistance army has increased!

"So, Xiaojing, that's why you want me to be an executive committee member?" Xia Shi asked tentatively.

"Hmm." Shizuka Hiratsuka said worriedly, "Although I told the class today that everyone should sign up, no one will be willing to go on Friday. In that case, I might as well let you go."

Xia Shi didn't answer immediately.

Seeing his hesitation, Xiao Jing raised the stakes: "Are you interested in the Executive Chairman?"

"Not interested." Xia Shi denied decisively.

Coordinating the arrangements for the entire cultural festival must be exhausting.

Moreover, he had heard that the executive chairman of the cultural festival would usually be the president of the student union, and it was senior Furutani who made the personnel deployment and arrangements last year.

This year, Vice President Amakusa will probably take on the position of chairman.

She is very capable and seems like a normal person when she doesn't tell dirty jokes.

"There are five instructors for this year's cultural festival." Xiao Jing said regretfully, "I and your favorite teacher Kirisu take up two of the seats."

When she said this, the blond and blue-eyed teacher Tiayou next to her also winked at Xia Shi.

"Me too~"

That's probably what she meant.

"Wow, three out of the five teachers are my people..." Xia Shi suddenly felt that he could walk sideways in the committee.

"If no one is willing by then, just add me in. As for the chairman, forget it." Xia Shi thought for a few seconds and gave an answer.

It felt good to accompany the monitor to the executive committee to slack off.

When the time comes, I will talk to Xiao Xiao and arrange an easier job for myself, so that I can escape from class activities and spend the cultural festival with less effort.

In my free time, I can also go shopping with Eriri.

Otherwise, I would be tied up in class arrangements and unable to move, let alone enjoy the cultural festival.

"Okay." Xiaojing nodded.

Xia Shi was sensible enough to avoid having to do it himself.

"Then... can I leave now?" Xia Shi said as he looked at where Xiao Zhendong was. Unfortunately, he didn't see anyone there, but some teaching plans were neatly placed there.

Maybe she went to the women's swimming club?

Hiratsuka Shizuka originally wanted him to go back, but after hearing his question, she suddenly remembered something.

That was what Kirisu Madoka-sensei had mentioned to her.

"Three-party talks..." When Xiao Jing said this, she could clearly notice that Xia Shi's body was becoming stiff.

Is it really that scary?

"Don't forget to tell your parents when you get back."

She didn't know much about Xia Shi's family situation, so she didn't say much.

"Yeah." Xia Shi nodded.

Let’s go back and think of a solution.

Think about whether you can escape it...

Xiao Jing caught Xia Shi's thoughtful expression.

"Don't give me some lame excuses, do you hear me?!" Shizuka Hiratsuka crossed her legs and threatened.

"Got it~"

Xia Shi dragged out his words and left the office.

Chapter 161: The Survival Rules of the Service Club (Part )

Tripartite talks, cultural festival, executive committee.

These three words filled Xia Shi's mind, and kept popping up as he headed to the club building.

Troublesome things always appear in clusters, making it difficult for people to cope with them, just like the cat hair that has been falling off Meow Nai's body recently, which is both numerous and annoying.

In front of the club building, Natsumi saw Yukino buying a drink at a vending machine. Her movements had become much more skillful. After taking out a can of black-packaged coffee, Yukino saw Natsumi.

Xia Shi also saw her and walked over consciously.

The two of them didn't say anything, just walked quietly towards the entrance of the building.

Xia Shi was the first to break the silence: "This coffee is quite bitter. Minister, do you hate bitterness?"

"Mr. Natsumi, do you like bitter taste?" Yukino asked back.

"Don't you think it's strange to answer questions with questions, Y-san?" Xia Shi said and asked another question.

"It's strange." Yukino nodded, "But after I bought black coffee, Natsumi still asked that kind of question. Don't you think you're weird?"

Xia Shi thought for a few seconds and replied, "There are also girls who don't like bitter coffee but pretend to like it. I think these childish girls are quite cute."

When Yukino heard him say this, a corresponding picture emerged in her mind: a girl holding a coffee cup, taking a sip, and then frowning. However, in order to show off in front of her friends, when asked about the taste, she still forced herself to say it was delicious.

Is this scene cute?

Yukino didn't feel that she was cute, she just thought that this kind of girl was awkward and weird.

This might be the impact of gender differences, she thought, and replaced the girl in her mind with Xia Shi.

After walking up a few steps, Yukino stopped.

Sorry, it’s a bit disgusting, so I’d better not think about it anymore.

Xia Shi felt a chill on his back for some reason.

I feel cold all over in the hot summer.

"Y-san, did you say something bad about me just now?"

"No."

"Really?" Xia Shi didn't quite believe it.

Yukino smiled adorably, "No~oh~"

"No matter how annoying you are, I will pretend to like you."

Xia Shi: “…”

He suddenly didn't like childish girls anymore, especially after he became bitter coffee.

----

The time it took for the two to talk was roughly the same as the time it took to walk from the bottom of the club building to the entrance of the service department.

While waiting for Y-san to open the door, Xia Shi glanced at the light music club next door, and it seemed that no one had arrived yet.

Their practice frequency has been increasing recently, from once a week to three times a week, which is three times the normal practice frequency! Although they still cannot practice every day, they are working very hard.

Wei-chan’s personal Twitter account recently updated with a batch of photos, which seemed to be taken when they went out shopping.

The sight of the girls clinging together was beautiful.

What made Xia Shi even more gratified was that they did not practice on the weekend, which was cause for celebration.

Since the Service Club doesn't receive a single commission in a week, if the originally lazy Light Music Club becomes more diligent, it will be difficult for Xia Shi to deal with Xiao Jing.

How does the saying go? There is no harm without comparison.

Last Wednesday, Xiao Jing came over to drink tea again and once again emphasized the necessity of launching the activity. Xia Shi refuted her by saying that the light music club next door was also drinking tea, and then she gave her a lecture.

"Why do you want to compete with them? They have to perform on stage at the cultural festival, what about you? You didn't learn the good things, but you learned the bad things!"

Xia Shi had nothing to say.

So he decided that in the future, every client would have to leave a letter of authorization when accepting a commission.

Otherwise, Xiao Jing would have thought that the service department drank tea every day, although they did drink it every day.

After Xia Shi and Yukino walked in, he put his bag away and said casually, "I suddenly realized something."

Yukino put her schoolbag aside and took out the book she was going to read today. It was a collection of novels by Yasunari Kawabata. She had read it before and was rereading it today.

"Every time you say something like this, I know there's probably no need to listen to what you're going to say next." Yukino turned a page of the book, and then seemed to remember something.

She stood up and prepared to make tea.

Xia Shi's theory died in the womb before it was even put into words. This theory, which only lasts for a few seconds, may be able to save the earth in the future, but if the minister doesn't want to listen, then forget it.

However, thinking of the ambition that the Minister had once proposed to conquer the Earth and plant the flag of the Service Department on every piece of land, Xia Shi understood what she meant.

Don't spread it! Don't tell others about such a great theory!

"What are you being narcissistic about?" Yukino took out the tea set gracefully.

"It's not good to use the ability to read minds carelessly! Ms. Yukinoshita! Please be careful about your behavior!"

Yukino didn't answer, or rather she had already answered.

Ten minutes later, Yukino walked over to Xia Shi with tea in her hands.

She put away the tea set, then went to the small cabinet where they were originally placed and took out the snacks.

It was the chestnut cake she bought yesterday.

"Y-san, I have always wanted to ask a question." Xia Shi looked at her movements and asked in confusion: "Where did these snacks come from?"

He touched his chin and guessed, "Could it be that you, Minister, are actually a cat-shaped robot from the future, and you disguised yourself as a beautiful girl just to blend in with the Earth? And your snacks, are they all made with a prop called a gourmet tablecloth?"
