New Student Welcoming Ceremony

A luxury Toyota car slowly stopped in front of the gate of Teiko Junior High School.

The arrival of the luxury Toyota car did not attract anyone's attention. Keep in mind, Teiko Junior High School is one of the elite junior high schools in Tokyo, there are many children from rich families who also attend school here, and they often come here in luxury cars. Compared to these luxury cars, Toyota cars don't look flashy at all.

But when the passengers in the Toyota car got out, both new students, old students, security guards, and teachers on duty, they were all stunned to see the quintuplet girls.

"Let's quickly take pictures so as not to disturb others."

Rena was used to people watching her five daughters and giving instructions.

"Yamada-san, take some photos." Maruo said to his personal driver.

"Yes sir."

Yamada is an old man in his 60s, and has been the Nakano Family's personal driver for a dozen years.

"Take a photo of Akira alone first."

"Okay mom."

Akira walked towards the school gate that had the school's name embedded in the wall.

"Show Young Master a smile."

Holding the camera in his hand, Yamada took a picture of Akira.

"It's finished." Yamada nodded his head.

Then Rena and Maruo stood on each side of Akira, and Yamada took another shot.

"Please, Miss, take a photo." Yamada said to the quintuplet girls.

Ichika, Nino, Miku, Yotsuba, and Itsuki approached Akira, with their father, and mother. Yamada, who was photographing the Nakano family.

After the photo session was over, Rena and Maruo returned to the car.

Ichika : "Is Akira-chan fine alone?"

Nino : "You haven't forgotten the contents of the speech, have you?"

Miku : "Don't be nervous, Akira."

Yotsuba : "Do your best, Akira-chan, you can do it!"

Itsuki : "Akira, don't push yourself."

"I'm fine, Nee-chan herself should hurry up, you'll be late." Akira said it lightly.

Reminded by Akira, the quintuplet girl waved her hand, and got into the car. Then the car sped away.

Carrying a bag over his shoulder, Akira walked through the school gate.

"Teiko deserves the reputation of being one of the elite high schools in Tokyo, just the entrance to the building looks beautiful."

Akira saw a row of cherry blossoms planted on the left and right sides of the road. Especially now that it's spring, the cherry blossoms are in bloom, and a gust of wind sends the cherry blossom leaves flying.

He went to the auditorium, which was the place for the entrance ceremony for the new students. In the auditorium, Akira saw that many seats had been occupied by new students like himself, so he walked to his seat in the front row, and sat down.

Taking his cell phone out of his pocket, Akira surfed the internet while waiting for the event to start.

"Can I sit in the chair next to you?"

Akira took his eyes off the cellphone screen and saw a handsome man, tall, blond hair, and golden eyes.

"Yeah."

"Thank you."

The blonde youth sat down on the chair, stretched out his hand, and introduced himself with a cheerful smile.

"I'm Kise Ryota, nice to meet you."

Akira also stretched out his hand to welcome the other party's hand, and he recognized himself.

"I'm Nakano Akira, nice to meet you too."

Both withdrew their hands. After brief introductions, no one spoke up. Perhaps not liking this silent situation, Kise started the conversation.

"Hey Nakano, I saw you taking a photo at the school gate. Who was the quintuplet girl with you earlier?"

"They are my older sisters." Akira replied while putting his cell phone back, it was impolite to talk to others while playing on the phone.

"Is that true? Amazing! This is my first time seeing quintuplets. Your mother is great."

"A lot of people say that."

Akira and Kise chatted for quite a while, and because the two of them got along so easily, they quickly became close, to the extent that they both called each other by their first names. Kise even added the word -cchi, every time he said Akira's name.

"Well, Akira-cchi, did you know the student council president, and the disciplinary committee president are twin girls?"

"This is the first time I hear this, where do you know, Ryota?"

Akira was a little interested, so far from his five sisters, he had only met twin girls in elementary school.

When Ryota wanted to speak, the host had already started the program.

"Then, we open the new student admission event..."

"We'll continue this topic later. The program has started." Kise spoke softly.

"Okay."

Akira didn't insist, and watched the stage quietly.

Now all the seats in the auditorium were occupied by the students, while the teacher sat at the edge of the room.

"Let's hear the greeting from principal Kondou Rikizou." The host said while clapping his hands, followed by the applause of all students.

The principal is a middle-aged man who wears a business suit, has short black wavy hair, and a large bushy mustache.

(So that's the principal of Teiko Junior High School) Akira thought seeing the principal standing at the podium, and started giving a welcoming speech for the new students.

"This morning, I saw cheerful faces. All students radiate extraordinary enthusiasm to start a new school year. Because today is a special day for all of us, especially for the new first year students."

"I say welcome to Teko Junior High School. Starting today, this school has become a second home for all of you. This is where you will play and learn together, gaining knowledge and skills that will be useful for your future."

"Remember this school has a philosophy, which is Always Winning!"

The principal continued talking for a full 15 minutes, before finally finishing.

...

On the podium, a beautiful girl with tuscan red hair tied in a ponytail, she lowered her head after just giving a speech in front of the entire class.

Akira looked at the girl, and was surprised.

(I didn't expect her to be the student council president)

He clapped his hands like the other students, in appreciation of the welcoming speech from the student council president to new students.

"Next, a welcome from the new students."

"Representative of the new students, Nakano Akira."

The host continues the sequence of events.

"It's my turn."

Akira stood up, stepped onto the stage, and walked to the podium.

"Eh...? It turned out to be Akira-cchi?"

Kise was stunned to see Akira standing on the podium, he didn't know this at all, because the other party didn't tell him.

Standing behind the podium, Akira doesn't have stage fright despite being watched by hundreds of students. In his previous life, he was often the speaker at health seminars held in remote villages, so he wasn't at all awkward speaking in front of a large number of people.

He bowed his head in respect, straightened his back, and began to speak.

"While the sun is shining with its warmth, and the cherry blossoms are falling on this beautiful spring day. I am so happy, and honored that my dream can come true, to become a student at this very prestigious Teiko Junior High School."

"As a representative of the freshmen, I am proud to be a student at Teiko High School..."

...

After receiving a standing ovation, Akira returned to his seat.

"Akira-cchi, you didn't say you were the new student representative?"

Not long after Akira sat down, Kise nudged him, and asked.

"You didn't ask me, right?"

"Ugh, there's a point in that too."

Kise was left speechless by Akira's rebuttal. He didn't expect, the new students he talked to, and got acquainted with. It turned out to be a new student representative.

Please note that you will be a new student representative at the welcoming ceremony. That means, that student has the highest test scores among all the new students!
