The next day, Fang Zheng and Shiba Miyuki were invited to the student union, where they met the members of the student union.
In addition to the vice president who was "persuaded to quit" by Fang Zheng, there are currently four people in the First High School Student Union. The first is the president Nanakusa Mayumi, and the second is a petite girl, Nakajo Azusa, who gives people the feeling of being well-behaved and introverted like a puppy. She is the secretary of the student union, with long black hair and brown skin, and looks calm and composed. And the discipline committee chief Watanabe Mari has short black hair and looks heroic.
Well, that means the student union is made up of only beauties, except for that idiot.
What kind of harem setting is this?
Fang Zheng once again thought about the idiot who was scared to death by him.
She doesn't look like a harem protagonist at all.
After both parties introduced themselves, they took their seats, and then Mayumi Nanakusa went straight to the point.
"I think everyone already knows that according to tradition, the first-year students who serve as freshman representatives will become members of the student council. Although the situation this year is a little different, Shiba-san and Kasugano-san, I hope that you can join the student council. Are you willing to accept?"
"I would very much like to accept the invitation."
Shiba Miyuki also stood up and bowed respectfully, while Nanakusa Mayumi nodded and then turned her gaze to Fang Zheng.
"So what about Kasugano-san?"
"Of course there is no problem on my side, but on the other hand, I want to ask if you are willing to accept it?"
In response to Mayumi Nanakusa's question, Fang Zheng did not answer. Instead, he chuckled and stared at the student council members in front of him.
"You know, the man in front of you is the culprit who knocked your vice president to the ground in public, frightened him to death, and finally expelled him from school. I don't know what the relationship between members in the student union is like, but he has been with you for a year after all. Can you really accept me without any barriers? By the way, I don't think I did anything wrong, and I won't change."
"Well……"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the girl who acted like a little animal suddenly showed an uneasy expression, while the other girl sitting next to her, Ichihara Suzune, remained silent.
"Kasugano-san."
Perhaps the atmosphere was a bit depressing, so Nanakusa Mayumi hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
"I've said this before, and everyone understands this..."
"Thanks for your help, but I think it's better to make things clear before joining."
Fang Zheng waved his hand, interrupting Mayumi Nanakusa's speech, then he stood up and looked at everyone.
"Let me make it clear in advance that if I want to join the student union, there will definitely be a lot of trouble. The first-year students may not dare to do anything to me, but the second-year and third-year students will definitely be dissatisfied. With my personality, I will not obediently follow the relationship of seniority and juniority. If they dare to make trouble, I will send them all back to their hometown to get married without hesitation. At that time, the students may not say anything on the surface, but they will discuss behind their backs, such as 'Why did the student union recruit such a person?', and you may also be implicated and looked at differently because of this. It can be said that it is an unprovoked disaster. Even so, are you willing to accept it?"
“…”
Hearing this, Ichihara Suzune and the animal-like Nakajo Azusa looked at each other, and the former picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
"Now that you know this, can't you make targeted improvements, Kasugano-san?"
"Of course you can, but that doesn't suit my personality. Besides, isn't this school based on meritocracy? If I have to bow down to a fool who is not as strong as me and has no self-awareness, I might as well just beat him up and let him know his own worth."
“Haha…”
Faced with Fang Zheng's answer, everyone present was stunned. Fang Zheng's "sincere attitude and determination not to change" really made them speechless.
And at this moment, suddenly, a burst of laughter rang out.
"Hahahahaha, interesting, you are so interesting, Kasugano-san."
On the contrary, Watanabe Mari, the head of the Discipline Committee, was laughing non-stop, and her laughter diluted the solemn atmosphere here.
"Really, Molly, this is not something you can just laugh off."
Mayumi Nanakusa looked like she had a headache, while Mari Watanabe was giggling.
"But it's really funny. This is the first time I've seen a man like this. It's really interesting. In that case, I have a suggestion."
"What is it?"
"It's simple. There's still a vacancy for the student union representative on the discipline committee side, so why not let Kasugano serve as the vice president as well? And it's almost recruitment time, right? This is a good opportunity for us to see what Kasugano is capable of. If he's really capable, this little problem shouldn't be a problem. In this way, other people won't have any objections to him becoming the vice president."
"Nice! Molly!!"
Hearing this, Nanakusa Mayumi clapped her hands happily, and then she looked at Fang Zheng.
"Then it's decided. Shiba Miyuki-san will be the secretary, and Kasugano-san will be the vice president of the student council and the representative of the discipline committee... Is that ok?"
"Disciplinary Committee Member..."
When Fang Zheng heard this word, a perverted girl with twin ponytails wearing an armband and shouting "Whoever attacks Mantou will die" every time she appeared immediately appeared in his mind.
If she knew that I could be a discipline committee member, I wonder what she would think.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng withdrew his thoughts, looked at Nanakusa Mayumi and nodded.
"Okay, I have no more questions."
After deciding on their positions, everyone finished their lunch and left the student council room to head to their respective classrooms. Fang Zheng and Shiba Miyuki walked towards Class 1-A.
"Kasugano-san."
However, when the two were alone, Shiba Miyuki looked at Fang Zheng as if she had some doubts.
"Hmm? What's up?"
"You are a very capable person. Whether it's your practical achievements in magic or your theoretical achievements... you are excellent in every aspect..."
"Thanks for the compliment."
"That's not what I meant. I meant..."
Shiba Miyuki hesitated for a moment, but still asked in a low voice.
"Aren't you afraid that your talent will attract the attention of others and be taken advantage of?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng stopped and turned to look at Shiba Miyuki, who stared into his eyes, as if looking for some answer.
However, Fang Zheng just shrugged his shoulders.
"Of course... I'm not afraid."
"……Why?"
"People who are afraid of being exploited probably have such thoughts because they don't have confidence in their own strength, wisdom and talents. Indeed, as you said, a piece of fat meat will always attract a large number of flies. But that is just a piece of meat. If that piece of meat can let other flies know that they have the power to crush those flies at will without fear, then even flies will not dare to run over and get in the way."
Having said this, Fang Zheng looked towards Shiba Miyuki.
"So, if you encounter this kind of thing, don't blame others, you can only blame yourself."
"Do you blame yourself...?"
"That's right. If you have enough courage and will to express your opinions and let others know that you are not a little girl who can be manipulated by others, then those flies will naturally stay away from you. But if you act harmless and everyone feels that they can step on you, then don't blame others for always causing trouble for you."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng showed a ferocious smile that was somewhat aggressive.
"People who are not strong enough can't do anything when they are taken advantage of, because they have no choice. But people who are strong enough can't use the excuse of 'no choice' to disguise their cowardice and incompetence. So it's not their problem that people who are not strong enough are taken advantage of, but it's definitely their problem if people who are strong enough are still taken advantage of."
“But, but…!!!”
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Shiba Miyuki clenched her fists, as if she wanted to argue something, but the next moment she suddenly came to her senses, then closed her mouth and lowered her head, which also meant that the conversation between the two had come to an end.
"That's it, then."
Fang Zheng turned around again and walked forward, while Shiba Miyuki followed him silently without saying a word.
After that, Fang Zheng also started his first job as a discipline committee member.
"Persuade Zhou?"
"That's right."
Watanabe Mari looked like she had a headache.
"As you know, for safety reasons, students are not allowed to use CAD on weekdays. The only exception is during the persuasion week, because they need to show their strength in front of the freshmen to attract members, so each club will do their best to show off at this time, and students will also take this opportunity to vent their pressure. In addition, the number of new members is limited, and ensuring the membership of each club is the top priority of each club, so it is inevitable that there will be fights or magic duels. Therefore, what we, the discipline committee, need to do is to ensure that there will be no large-scale fighting during the persuasion week, and at the same time, strangle the source of possible incidents in the early stages."
As he spoke, Watanabe Mari took out a black armband and handed it to Fang Zheng.
"This is your discipline committee armband. As long as you wear it, everyone will know who you are—although strictly speaking, everyone should know you now."
Having said that, Watanabe Mari shrugged with a wry smile, then looked at Fang Zheng again.
"Also, in the entire school, only the Discipline Committee has the power to carry CAD at any time, but abuse is not allowed. Once abuse is discovered, the punishment will be more severe than that of ordinary students. Please remember this."
"Then just don't use CAD to cast magic."
Fang Zheng took the armband and spoke, while Watanabe Mari looked at him helplessly.
"It's not a question of whether or not to use CAD to cast magic. The key is that you can't cast magic at will. Do you understand, Kasugano-san?"
"I see. I'll just use my fists then."
"...I hope you can avoid hurting anyone and resolve the issue as peacefully as possible."
After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Watanabe Mari was speechless. She now began to doubt whether it was a wrong decision to let the other party join the Disciplinary Committee on a whim.
"Okay, I'll try to resolve this peacefully."
As for how much truth there was in Fang Zheng's words, that was not something Watanabe Mari could judge.
