Next, Shinichi asked Itsuki one by one according to the predetermined questions, and she answered them carefully. Itsuki was truly different from the people who came just for fun, and her serious appearance touched Shinichi.
So it didn't take long.
"And the last question is, if you are giving a support speech now and have reached the end, how would you make a perfect ending for this speech?"
Shinichi lifted his head from the information with a serious look: "You only have fifteen seconds to think, let's start!"
"Eh?!" Itsuki was caught off guard and wanted to say something, but the countdown continued without any intention of stopping.
"Fifteen, fourteen..."
She had no time to think about anything else. She racked her brain to start thinking about this issue.
In the previous preparation, she did include the arrangement of the speech. Logically, all she had to do was recite the last paragraph. But as soon as the interviewer uttered the perfect ending word, Itsuki worried about that paragraph. Were her words perfect, and would her conclusion be recognized by everyone?
When she worried like this, her mind became increasingly confused, and things she remembered well became blurry.
Fifteen seconds passed. Itsuki bit her lip and still panicked, but Shinichi immediately said, "Please answer."
Sitting in her chair, Itsuki pretended to be calm, but her tone sounded desperate.
"In the end, I still hope... I hope you can support the candidate Asada Shinichi. I believe he can bring progress and a better future for this school! Thank you very much for listening!"
After puffing up her chest, she knelt sadly, her long curly hair flowing.
"Uuuuuu."
"You care too much about the 'perfect' definition." Listening to Itsuki's complaint, Shinichi placed the information on the table. "I must say that your answers during the interview are too formal. There's nothing wrong with that, but there's nothing outstanding either."
"I can say that you have come back and checked a lot of information and made a lot of preparations, but these preparations have confined your ideas and hindered the interviewer from seeing the difference between you and others and what is unique about you."
"Whether it's good or bad, it's better than not being seen by everyone."
Continuing the topic, Shinichi commented on her just appearance.
Nino was holding an empty tea cup and didn't go to add new tea. She had a smile on her lips and stared at Shinichi while talking.
Ichika was lying on the sofa chair's armrest, holding her cheek with her hand and swinging her calf.
Miku put down her phone, closed her eyes, and listened to his words calmly.
Yotsuba smiled with a reminiscent expression.
Fumino was used to it. Both she and Rizu knew that when Shinichi displayed a serious and earnest teacher attitude.
"Hah? Why are you so confused? Tell me what I just said. You can tell me again without making any mistakes. Come on, tell me!"
"I apologize! There won't be a next time!"
Fumino sighed.
Both of them also needed a few moments to fully concentrate on his teachings.
Fumino is still cheerful now. Fortunately, Shinichi is looking for a part-time job in finance, not as a tutor for female students. If not, her love rival would not only be a few people in front of her but also a new character.
Although it's just a personal bias, Fumino always feels that if an ordinary middle school girl asks Shinichi to be her tutor and is taught by him in a situation like this, she worries that in three days, the girl will have a good impression.
Then after a few events, the "shuraba" becomes more tragic!
Fumino listened carefully to Shinichi's lecture to Itsuki. When they finally finished this round, Itsuki stood up and bowed to him. After leaving the sofa, finally, she and Shinichi looked at each other.
"Next, please."
"Yes!"
With an enthusiastic answer, Fumino sat in front of him, confidently puffing up her chest.
"Furuhashi Fumino, a second-year student at Shuchi'in Academy, please give me your advice!"
"Yes." Shinichi nodded, his attitude no different from the previous ones, and he began to ask questions with a firm attitude.
Because this is an open interview, people who are far behind are actually more advantageous. They can not only observe the performance of the first few people and make adjustments accordingly, but they can also hear Shinichi fixing their shortcomings and know what to do.
Just like now, every answer given by Fumino is very clean, clearly covering some things that Itsuki didn't do well. Although Itsuki showed dissatisfaction, she could see the gap between herself and Fumino from clear statements and fluent answers.
She didn't want to admit defeat, but she accepted the reality that Fumino was stronger than her.
If she really stood on the stage and faced the gaze of hundreds of spectators, could she surpass it?
(I know it's impossible... Just don't get too nervous to the point of not being able to speak...)
Itsuki was a little disappointed in herself.
(I can't help Asada-kun with my support speech. Let's ask him if there's anything else he can do for me... It's not impossible to serve tea or water. Anyway, as long as I stay by his side, I can always learn something useful.)
Remembering the moment when she was made confused by his magnetic voice just now, Itsuki blushed, and she swept her hair over her forehead to cover her expression.
Fortunately, everyone is currently looking at the two facing each other on the sofa, and no one is paying attention to her thoughts and embarrassment.
"Then the last question... Same as the one I asked Itsuki earlier."
Saying this, Shinichi didn't intend to let Fumino be offended: "But I won't ask that question again, and I will ask you to answer it in ten seconds."
Simply put, after being baptized with a series of questions, memory and thinking flexibility are also tested.
Before he could count to ten, the girl spoke softly.
"I have officially known Asada-san for half a year. During this time, I have always been taught and taken care of by him. Honestly, there may be no one in this school who knows him better than me..."
"I know that he is too responsible and a good person who lacks self-awareness. But, I don't know if being the student council president is a good thing. Maybe he will be too tired to make the school better, maybe he really can take care of the student council, grades, part-time jobs."
"But the only thing I can be sure of is that I am willing to entrust the future of my school life to him, and to the man who always puts others' affairs before his own, and is always willing to try his best for this."
"In my opinion, he is the most suitable student council president for our school!"
"Above is my speech, thank you for listening!"
After finishing speaking, Fumino bowed slightly, raising her head, she smiled shyly.
"How was it? It should be okay, right?"
"..."
There was silence around, and everyone stared at her with strange eyes without saying a word.
"Eh? What's this reaction? Why aren't you saying anything!?"
Fumino thought she had said something wrong. She looked nervously at everyone, glancing back and forth, and finally turned to Shinichi seeking help.
