Chapter 149 149 I Am Irreconcilable with Gambling and Drugs, I Say Nothing About Sex
Hachiman sensed that the malice enveloping him had disappeared and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he inwardly complained: 'This guy Yagami Hakuto looks all smiles, but the malice emanating from him made my hair stand on end.'
Hachiman strongly suspected that if he actually joined this Service Club, his cute little sister would probably be searching for his concrete pillar in Tokyo Bay tomorrow.
Hakuto's phone suddenly beeped with a notification.
After reading the message, Hakuto said to Yukino, "There's something at the student council. I need to go over there."
Then, as he passed by Hachiman, Hakuto patted him on the shoulder and said, "You're not bad. If anything comes up, you can come to me."
With that, Hakuto left the Service Club's activity room.
Shizuka looked thoughtfully at Hakuto, then at Yukino, and finally realized: "Yukino, are you and Hakuto together?"
Yukino looked coldly at Shizuka.
"I didn't know you'd become so gossipy, Hiratsuka-sensei."
Stung by her retort, Shizuka was speechless.
Hakuto arrived at the student council and noticed that Kaguya seemed a bit off today.
"Kaguya, what's wrong? Who made you angry?"
Kaguya's expression stiffened slightly, then she pretended to be calm and said, "I called you here today to have you review these applications for establishing new clubs."
"Club reviews?"
"Yes. Because of the Aki Tomoya incident last time, the school has added some prerequisites for those who want to start a club. They must undergo a review by the student council. Only clubs approved by the student council can be established. Clubs that have already been established also need to be reviewed."
"The school will conduct irregular spot checks. If there's a problem with a club, the student council will inevitably bear responsibility for negligence. Also, the students who established the club will have a record of it. So you need to find the right balance."
Hakuto nodded, then opened the documents and looked through them. Then he noticed a problem.
"They're all exchange students?"
There were three documents, meaning three clubs were to be established. All three clubs were being established by exchange students: Kirari from Private Hyakkaou Academy wanted to start a gambling club, Erina from Totsuki Academy wanted to start a cooking club, and Honoka from Otonokizaka High School wanted to start an idol club.
"Kaguya, not to mention the other two clubs, the cooking club and the idol club, for now, this gambling club is clearly not suitable for our school, right?"
"Momobami Kirari donated 200 million to the school to buy a chance. The school agreed, but they also made it very clear that if the review is not passed, the money will not be refunded."
Hakuto understood the meaning.
"Is the school planning to have the student council reject Momobami Kirari's review?"
"Everything is up to you. If Momobami Kirari can satisfy you, then let her pass. Otherwise, directly reject her."
"Understood."
He put away the documents.
"If there's nothing else, I'll get going."
"Oh, and this time, Takahashi-sensei will be accompanying you as a supervisor."
"Don't worry, I get it."
He put away the documents and left. He arrived at the prepared activity room. The supervising teacher, Takahashi Yoko, had already arrived.
"Takahashi-sensei, you're here so quickly."
"I just arrived too."
After speaking, Takahashi Yoko continued, "Now that you're here, let's begin. We'll go directly into the review phase."
"No problem."
Hakuto took out a document.
"Miss Momobami Kirari, regarding your application for a gambling club, as far as the school and I are concerned, it is basically impossible for you to establish such a club. So I can only directly reject your application."
Momobami Kirari was not surprised by this.
"I'll trade you a piece of information to let me establish the club?"
"Unfortunately, I have no intention whatsoever of letting you establish a club. I hate gambling and drugs. I am irreconcilable with gambling and drugs."
Hakuto said this with a straight face. Yumeko, standing nearby, asked in confusion, "Isn't it usually sex, gambling, and drugs? Why only gambling and drugs?"
[Naive. If I can't have sex, life is meaningless. I am irreconcilable with gambling and drugs. I say nothing about sex.]
Kirari looked at Hakuto. "Since I dared to propose it, naturally I'm confident I can make you agree."
Hakuto was noncommittal.
"I wonder if you've heard of the Legendary Cooking Utensils?"
Kirari leaned close to Hakuto's ear and whispered something. Hakuto's expression changed.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course. So, do you agree?"
Kirari looked at Hakuto, a smile on her face.
"Okay."
Hakuto looked at Takahashi Yoko. "Takahashi-sensei, I agree to let her establish the club. However, the name definitely cannot be 'Gambling Club'. I will report the specific reasons to President Shinomiya later."
Takahashi Yoko nodded.
Hakuto then turned to Kirari. "Your club must change its name. We'll call it 'Card Arts Club'."
"No problem."
Kirari looked at Hakuto. "You can come to me anytime for that information."
"I will. You can go now."
Hakuto wrote "Approved" on the application form, handed it to Kirari, and let her leave. Then he picked up the second document. Erina and the others walked in from outside.
"Takahashi-sensei, I think there's no problem with them wanting to establish a cooking club. What do you think?"
Takahashi Yoko naturally thought there was no problem with Erina and the others wanting to establish a cooking club.
"Cooking club approved."
Hakuto similarly handed the application form with "Approved" written on it to Erina.
After Erina and the others left, Honoka and the others, who had applied for an idol club, came in.
