13 Vice President, Meiko... please help me...

"Wait a minute, where are you going?" I stopped one of the juniors who was in a hurry, and her face turned bright red when she saw me. But she still stopped before responding:

"U-Umm, the upperclassmen allowed us juniors to use the hot spring bath first, so we want to go there now."

Hot spring bath, huh? Because I'm the vice president of the Underground Student Council, I can use the space as I please, so Mari and I usually bathe alone, away from other students.

My body trembled as I remembered Mari's slender body and the touch of her hands as she tried to help wash my body, but I quickly realized that I was making this junior wait, so I let her go.

As a member of the Underground Student Council, it is my responsibility to conduct surveillance around the school and dorm areas. I don't feel burdened in the least because, rather than writing all night, I prefer to unwind by going for a walk like this.

The cold night air is also no longer an issue for me because I am used to it, even when I am only wearing shorts and a tank top, as I am now. But then I noticed someone running towards me from the end of the corridor, still dressed in a school uniform.

"Who is this idiot who wears a uniform even after school has ended?" My eyebrows raised slightly when I discovered that the individual was one of the male students, and I had just met him in the cafeteria that afternoon.

*thud

*thud

I gave him a moment to catch his breath before asking, "If you want to attract a woman's attention, this isn't the way to do it."

I understand that these men are desperate for women and will do anything to get our attention, but for the time being, I will listen to the explanation.

"No, that isn't it... Vice President, Meiko... please help me..."

I was disgusted when this man's hand began to hold my shoulder. I wanted to kick him right away, but he seemed to have important information, so I let him continue.

"Actually, right now, the men are committing unforgivable crimes. They forced me to come along, but I refused and managed to escape."

I then put this man's head in a tight lock because I was annoyed before saying, "Don't beat around the bush. Quickly tell me what they are going to do!"

I could hear his breathing becoming more labored, and seeing him struggle to open his mouth, I let go, "They... *cough... are trying to peek into the hot spring bath..."

Hearing that, I ran before pushing this man out of my way, but not before telling him, "Good job. If what you said is true, you have saved all the female students who were about to be harassed by those wild animals."

As a member of the Underground Student Council, I am expected to have an athletic body and an IQ above average. Therefore, for me, who always trains my body, running like this is nothing.

I had arrived at the hot spring bath, which was still located in the dorm building area, in an instant. When I opened the door, there were no signs of male students, but I went inside to double-check.

"Look, the Vice-President is here."

"kyahhh... will we be given a blessing to see her naked body..."

"As a first-year student, it is an honor to bathe with one of the goddesses at this school."

When all the junior girls gave me strange looks, my steps didn't falter at all. I was used to hearing comments like that, so my eyes remained focused on looking for the whereabouts of these wild animals that might be disguised among these innocent sheep.

"Where?... are their disguise skills so good that I can't find them," I muttered in annoyance because it was possible that the bastard was lying to me, and Mari would be disappointed if she discovered I could be easily lied to by them.

When I was about to rush out and find the man, my attention was drawn to one of the open windows, and I felt something strange. When I approached it, I noticed a thread, and my eyes narrowed.

When I followed the thread, I discovered a cell phone standing in a pot as if it had been purposefully placed there. When I considered the possibilities, my brain immediately began working overtime.

"Did they use this cellphone to peek and use this thread to transport it secretly without them needing to go in and out of this room?"

I ran outside again after pocketing the evidence, but this time, my goal was the top floor of this building. When I arrived at the door to the roof, I was only dripping with sweat.

*bam!

I didn't hesitate to open the door with a bang, and my brow furrowed immediately when I saw the pitch darkness of this roof, but the clouds in the sky soon disappeared, allowing the moonlight to illuminate Hachimitsu Academy for a while.

"Oh, Meiko. I just wanted to call you… but it seems you also know what they are doing," I could hear Mari's voice and a large shadow forming a pyramid.

Mari's figure was sitting elegantly on top of the pile of four unconscious male students when the moonlight hit the shadow. They didn't seem to be doing well because crows would occasionally land on their wounds before pecking at them.

"As I expected from you, Mari, congratulations on successfully capturing these beasts."

"hmm, my crows can feel the bad aura from them, so I can immediately take action... but, Meiko, isn't there another one of them?"

It was unmistakably that man, but I was skeptical because he didn't appear to be involved with them, "About that... actually..."

"We will notify the entire school tonight," Mari cut me off before I could finish as she stepped down, walked past me, and left.
