Can You Do It Again?

"It feels familiar..."

"Anyway, this is the second time we have to clean the student council room."

After Shirogane's outburst, Kaguya carefully placed the tea set in the cabinet, a seemingly precious box.

"If you leave this time, there won't be a chance to come back."

"Kaguya-san, we can come back and hang out if we have time!" Chika said cheerfully.

"It's not like you can't come in again without being a student council member. We're alumni! If Asada-kun becomes the next president, he'll surely welcome us more splendidly!"

"Right, Asada-kun?"

After receiving Chika's gaze, Shinichi stopped arranging and turned around with a smile.

"Of course. When the time comes, I'll bring tea brewed by Shinomiya Senpai and serve it well."

Kaguya pouted and chuckled.

"Is that so? Then I'll be looking forward to it."

"Except for Fujiwara Senpai."

"Why!" Chika exclaimed with wide-open eyes. "Asada-kun, are you betraying me in the final moments of the student council's existence?"

"Because you would surely come up with weird games that disrupt the student council's work. I just gave a vaccination in advance."

Shinichi turned and spoke casually.

"Is a cup of hot water enough? Please wash the cup and return it to us after drinking outside."

"The new student council's hospitality is terrible! There will be a one-star negative review online!"

"Okay, for Senpai's sake, this time we'll wash the cup."

"This is so forced! And it's not about the cup at all... Senpai's approval rating is very low!"

"Do you not need a cup? Senpai, you're amazing; you can take hot water directly from the thermos with your mouth..."

"Senpai can also get burned! Don't you want to invite seniors for tea?"

"Yes."

"Without hesitation?!" Chika swung her arms in anger. "I've decided! I'll evaluate Asada-kun's alliance, support another candidate for president, and then become the puppeteer behind the scenes to control the entire school, so Asada-kun can endure for half a year!"

Shirogane sighed next to her. "You should focus on exam preparation."

"Heh... Asada and Fujiwara Senpai's banter is also part of the student council."

Ishigami teased.

He and Iino opened lockers together and took out various items piled inside for sorting.

"I don't know when their relationship became so good..." Iino muttered, taking out a cardboard box and looking puzzled. "Is this...?"

"Ah, that's it!"

Chika walked quickly and showed a nostalgic smile. "This is 'Perfect Match'... The first game Asada-kun played with us after joining the student council!"

"Asada judging..." Shirogane looked at the two of them strangely, then saw the pile of stuff on the floor.

"Just like last year, I left so many 'memories'."

"Is this a card matching game? I still remember Asada-kun correctly guessing the card chosen by Fujiwara-san the first time. It was amazing."

Kaguya also came and remembered what happened then.

Well, even her friend from middle school couldn't understand what kind of circuit Chika's brain was made of.

Does the pink octopus head contain nothing, or does it contain indescribable chaos?

Honestly, she didn't want to know.

But there were those who could understand and guess Chika's way of thinking, and this discovery made her quite curious.

"Yes!"

Chika suddenly stared at Shinichi and smiled mischievously.

"Hmm, Asada-kun's feelings couldn't be hidden since then~ I'm such a sinful woman~"

After she finished speaking, she pretended to be charming, swayed her long pink hair, and touched her cheek.

"If beauty is a crime, then I am guilty..."

Not knowing which TV series she was imitating, Chika pretended to be melancholic.

"..."

The student council room fell silent, everyone looking at her with subtle eyes and saying nothing.

Shinichi could see the red color at the base of her ears. Perhaps after calming down, Chika finally realized that saying such sentences felt more embarrassing than she imagined.

From a professional point of view, her performance was like a child driving a big car with very poor skills.

However, before Ishigami could complain, Shinichi patted the other's shoulder and smiled.

No one knew better than him how sad, uncomfortable, and embarrassed one could feel due to embarrassing behavior.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Therefore, let Chika go and pretend not to see her...

Ishigami understood his eyes, and he patted his back while sighing, "You've worked hard too."

Shinichi had an inexplicable feeling that this person had misunderstood something, but if the target was Ishigami, he didn't want to explain.

The two men reached a silent agreement.

Iino continued to sort out the items she took out of the storage locker. These were all items used by the student council in the last six months but couldn't bear to throw away. Shinichi even saw Shirogane and Kaguya using them in the "Voice Guessing Game."

She didn't know why these things still existed until now.

Although she didn't want to remember it too much, Shinichi still remembered that day when he got a new nickname from Chika.

The Fake Voice King...

"Asada-kun, can you do it again?"

Chika was excited, but Shinichi rolled his eyes.

"Can I refuse?"

"Please, just once~" Chika said playfully.

Shinichi pondered for a few seconds; he spoke with a desperate expression on his face.

"Hello~"

"Pfft hahahahahahahahahahahaha – that's really my voice!" Chika laughed heartily while holding her stomach.

"Asada-kun is truly amazing. Let's become government spokespersons in the future! Don't you think it's cool to use your voice to be the shadow of politicians?"

"Not at all." Shinichi's head was filled with black lines.

This woman still dared to smile happily. Did she forget who sent her that well-meaning but creepy and disgusting guy card?

Shinichi regretted it; he should have complained to Ishigami until he lost his sanity.

Indeed, good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years.
