Hold off
When everything calmed down and Hayashi-sensei finally turned serious, she pointed to the nearby coffee table and had us sit down.
Next to that coffee table was a side window overlooking the entirety of the campus. Being lined up with the School and Club Building, it’s not part of the view but from there, I could easily see the gymnasium, the library and the open fields occupied by the athletic clubs.
The Student Council Room had the same view behind Shizu’s table. From that window, Shizu caught me with Satsuki when we’re leaving the Gymnasium. Furthermore, she also followed us with her gaze from the windows outside the Student Council Room when we’re leaving the school gates.
That incident was what triggered another interaction with Shizu which ended with her suggestion about evaluating me if I was fit for Nami.
Anyway, with Shizu bringing up how she appointed me as her successor, the two of them talked about it for a while with me as a silent spectator.
