Shinichi's friends are few, rather than seeking help from those who don't know, it is better for him and Nino to fight as hard as they can, and only rely on the two of them to complete the event successfully.
School direction is based on results. As long as forest school is lively, innovative, and well-received, not only will Nino's behavior score be guaranteed, but Shinichi will also be able to speak for himself on the Student Council.
Fortunately, he had prepared for the worst.
Shinichi glanced at the file called "Backup Plan" on his cellphone, he casually tackled Furuhashi's chatter, planning to spend this out of class casually.
Although he doesn't know why, Furuhashi continues to talk about Ogata, and also enthusiastically recommends him several films.
But due to a slight daze, Shinichi's demeanor became slightly cold, and he replied with an uninterested look.
"Sorry, you and Ogata go and see, I haven't been in the mood to play in the past month."
"Eh..." Furuhashi suddenly stopped talking and looked at Shinichi blankly, the color of her eyes suddenly dimmed a bit.
She smiled wryly in apology.
"Ahaha, sorry, you just said yesterday that you'd be busy with forest school, but I forgot… Can I help you? I can try my best to help you without affecting your grades!"
"Then please increase your score even higher." Shinichi sighed, "One problem will take two hours. Are you planning not to solve a single problem on your college exam? If I have time, I'd rather teach you than go to the movies."
"...So." Furuhashi smiled gently and she didn't mention the movie again.
Shinichi was silent, then suddenly said: "Don't misunderstand this sentence, I want you to always remember to strive for the best, not to say that you can't have entertainment besides reading."
"If you want to watch a movie, watch it, don't worry about me, relax in your own way, you know?"
Furuhashi looked at him again.
"I see... Asada-san was trying to persuade us not to get too tired, not to focus on studying, but also to remember to take that break for a longer trip, right?"
Shinichi said confidently, "I'm not an iron-blooded educator. I don't want your parents to complain and say that I traded your health for grades."
"Don't worry, no one will say it." Furuhashi smiled brightly at Shinichi "Because before they say it, I will use the essay to prove that Asada-san is the best educator for us in this world!"
"...That's too much." Shinichi ignored it.
But Furuhashi sharply caught him. When Shinichi turned around, she showed a slightly embarrassed smile.
Furuhashi quickly touched her face and chest when no one was watching.
Her face wasn't hot, but her heart was beating fast, so it should be fine.
In this way, she can still pretend that she didn't find it.
Obviously they didn't mean to tease Shinichi, but just plain words could make Furuhashi's heart beat faster and feel happy like a fool.
No one, including her, could come across this problem.
...
"Asada-san, please wait a moment."
During lunch, when Shinichi was about to take his lunch to the Sakura Pavilion for dinner, Itsuki suddenly stopped him in the corridor.
"What's wrong, Itsuki?" Shinichi looked back doubtfully, and saw that she blushed slightly, and she said shyly.
"That... The letter I sent you a few days ago... Has not yet been answered..."
"..." Seeing Itsuki's reluctance to speak, Shinichi fell silent.
What you gave wasn't a real love letter, so you should be ashamed...
"Or, have you forgotten the contents?" Seeing Shinichi's silence for a moment, Itsuki looked at him seriously, "It's fine, I'll tell you in person."
"I'm writing… This is… The love letter that Furuhashi-dan mentioned to you…"
Her voice became lower, and her pretty face became even redder.
After panicking for a moment, she took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and said seriously.
"It's not a love letter, it's a thank you letter written by me, and what's in it..."
"It's okay, you don't need to say it, I've read the note, you don't need to pay much attention to it." Shinichi stopped her. "As for the meal mentioned above, actually..."
He thought Itsuki would understand his cold treatment, but he didn't expect this person to be so slow and courteous. She had only waited until today to ask him about it, and she seemed to really want to eat with him.
Facing Itsuki like this, Shinichi suddenly took back the polite refusal he was about to express, and a thought appeared in his mind.
——If Itsuki were a member of the executive committee, the work assigned to her would be strictly completed, right?
Itsuki's personality wasn't quite outstanding, but more than stable, even though she felt a bit flustered, it was just right to be used as a secretary or assistant, and one could entrust something to her.
Thinking of this, his inspiration couldn't be held back, his thoughts developed wildly, and Shinichi came up with a great idea that no one could think of!
Shinichi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately changed his tone.
"Actually… I don't eat out much often, so it's a bit difficult to treat you to a meal, but if you can overcome this problem with a drink, I'd rather have a can."
"Is it true? Great..." Itsuki smiled happily, "I think it was my attitude that displeased you, and in addition, Asada-kun seems a bit busy, so I didn't dare bother you until today, I'm really sorry..."
"No, actually I also have something I want to talk to you about." Shinichi showed a friendly smile.
"Are you going to eat in the cafeteria? Let's go over there and chat."
"Okay." Itsuki immediately agreed.
In this manner, they walked towards the cafeteria together, their tall and short silhouettes perfectly matching each other.
However, what no one knew was that behind the two of them, several eyes were staring at them.
"Captain Kashima, the transfer student and the target are going to the cafeteria, and the relationship seems to be good."
"Officer Inomori, you don't need to tell me, I know." Kashima put on the bluetooth headset slowly, "All members of the Thorn Club obeyed orders and arranged a clean up in the cafeteria, so as not to violate privacy to observe their actions."
"If the target gets too close to the transfer student, immediately take a photo of the crime scene and send it anonymously to Princess Furuhashi's mailbox."
"Remember, we believe that the "Shadow Monarch" will not betray the princess, and everything will be decided by the princess. Unless there is substantive evidence, information about the "Shadow Monarch"'s fraud must not spread, understand?"
"Understood, but Captain Kashima, isn't it too early for you to directly determine the Shadow Monarch's affair..."
"Officer Inomori, you should prepare for the worst first." Kashima glanced at her quietly, and a strong sense of oppression instantly made Inomori feel trembling, "Are we going to wait for the princess to be cheated?"
"But they obviously aren't dating yet..." But under Kashima's intense gaze, all the Thorn Club members in the class fell silent and didn't dare to speak.
"Are there any objections? Then, before the action starts, repeat the slogan with me one last time."
"Keep your voice down, don't let the princess hear you. "
"Fumino is immortal, and the Thorn Club will last forever!"
