He strolled leisurely back to his dorm, and after waiting for about ten seconds to make sure the other person understood him, the boy sent out the next email.

[Aragaki Shun]: "If the chairman finds out about this, I'll be in a lot of trouble, unless you're willing to let me call him brother-in-law."

Manabu Horikita supported him as the next Student Council President simply because he and Horikita Suzune were freshmen in the same year, and he could take care of his sister from being bullied after the other graduated.

But you can't expect to take care of someone in bed all at once, can you?

In the eyes of a brother who dotes on his sister, his attitude towards relationships might not make him a reliable person to entrust one's life to.

While this situation may not be unsolvable, as long as the woman herself has that idea, Aragaki Shun will not be afraid to face the scrutinizing parents.

The key question is, given Horikita Suzune's outward display of emotional intelligence, does she really know what love is?

He strongly suspected that the words "relationship between men and women" simply did not exist in this woman's dictionary!

[Horikita Suzune]: "!!!"

[Horikita Suzune]: "I understand. Please have Ichinose come over. I owe her a favor."

Seemingly startled by the email sent Aragaki Shun, the long-haired girl didn't dare to delay at all and immediately agreed to the suggestion she had been resisting before, in less than three seconds.

[Aragaki Shun]: "Actually, if you just went to your brother for help, Horikita President would be very pleased. The relationship between you two siblings is really awkward."

[Horikita Suzune]: "No, how can I let my brother know about this!"

[Aragaki Shun]: "That's where your immaturity lies. In life, you'll always encounter difficulties that you can't solve alone. At such times, being able to unite with partners and subordinates, or seek help from family and friends, demonstrates your cooperative ability."

[Aragaki Shun]: "It's truly pathetic to find yourself unable to turn to anyone for help after something has happened, and no one is willing to assist you."

[Horikita Suzune]: "..."

There was no further reply from the other end, so Aragaki Shun stopped arguing and directly called Ichinose Honami to explain the whole story.

Naturally, the Archangel of Class A didn't hesitate at all, repeatedly assuring Horikita Suzune that he would help her out of her predicament.

The pink-haired girl's efficiency was also frightening; Aragaki Shun had barely sat down in his dorm room a few minutes ago when another email arrived—

The photo above shows that Horikita Suzune's hand, which was stuck in the kettle, has been freed, while Ichinose is pulling her into making a stiff "V" sign.

After thinking about it, Aragaki Shun simply sent both photos to the Student Council President.

[Aragaki Shun]: "I never expected your sister to have such an adorable side. Does the president have a habit of keeping embarrassing moments of his sister?"

[Manabu Horikita]: "... Please thank Ichinose for me; I've asked her to look after my younger sister."

[Aragaki Shun]: "My sister is awkward, and so is I. If either of you were willing to sit down and talk, things wouldn't be so awkward between you."

[Manabu Horikita]: "As your older brother, I really haven't done a good job. After you graduate from Third Year, I can only ask you to look after Suzune a little."

[Aragaki Shun]: "It's alright, at least now when something happens, she knows to call someone, unlike before when she would always be alone."

[Manabu Horikita]: "It seems Suzune has indeed improved. I'm also planning to raise this issue with the school Student Council regarding changes to the election format for the next Student Council President..."

All I can say is that both he and Manabu Horikita are the type to get straight to the point.

So, in no time at all, the two of them turned the conversation to the election for the next Student Council President.

In this regard, Aragaki Shun doesn't need to worry too much. As the current Student Council President, as long as Manabu Horikita's suggestions are reasonable, the school has no reason not to approve them.

The two only need to come up with a plan that appears fair on the surface and complies with the Advanced Nurturing regulations, but in practice, the winning plan will always be his.

Time flew by and it was August 23rd, with only nine days left until the end of summer vacation.

When deciding to enroll in Advanced Nurturing, Aragaki Shun had discussed it with his stepsister Ayase, promising her that they would go home to meet up during every long holiday.

Otherwise, she would never have let him go to this boarding school alone.

After all, if they couldn't get out, the two of them would not see each other for at least three years, which was simply unbearable for Ayase.

Aragaki Shun was not one to go back on his word, so he decided to use the last week of summer vacation to leave school under the guise of club activities.

Once he graduates from Advanced Nurturing, he can go wherever he wants. The school can only make a show of it; they can't possibly stop him from going home.

The scheduled departure date is August 25th. Currently, Aragaki Shun is in the Activity Classroom of the Cultural and Entertainment Club, making some preparations before leaving school.

"Have all the letters from the students in the class been collected?"

As Ichinose Honami bent over sorting through the letters, Aragaki Shun, having memorized the home addresses of everyone in his class, finally had a moment to look at the restless pink-haired girl.

"... I've collected them all." Ichinose pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally placed her own letter on the list as well.

She really didn't expect that Aragaki Shun would have a way to leave the school and even help everyone in the class send out the letters they wanted to mail.

Is this really okay?

A hint of worry appeared on her face; the pink-haired girl couldn't suppress the anxiety in her heart.

After all, the school rules have repeatedly emphasized that it is absolutely forbidden to leave the school without permission, let alone secretly contact the outside world and spread information about the Advanced Nurturing.

If such a violation is discovered, it could very well result in expulsion from school.

Having the opportunity to send letters to family members she hadn't seen for six months would naturally be a source of great joy for Ichinose, should she succeed.

It's understandable that a girl who has always been a model student would feel uneasy about such a blatant disregard for rules.

Moreover, whether from her own conscience or from the perspective of the class's public interest, she did not want Aragaki Shun to take risks that crossed the school's bottom line.

It would be terrible to be punished for this.

"Don't worry, Aragaki wouldn't do something that would be a case of losing more than you gain without being sure of success."

Compared to Ichinose, Kanzaki Ryuji, who understood the strength of the Aragaki Family and knew Aragaki Shun's identity, was not worried about this at all.

Within the school, the Advanced Nurturing, a political achievement created specifically by the Prime Minister, requires all second-generation students from Sakurajima to strictly abide by the rules and regulations upon enrollment.

Even if leaders of other political factions, heads of conglomerates, or bigwigs from various industries want to interfere with the operation of this school, they must honestly exchange benefits to obtain corresponding positions within the school before they can reasonably interfere with the school's examinations.

But once they leave the school gates, do you really think you can control the heir of the Aragaki Family with your Advanced Nurturing school rules?

What are you dreaming about?

To put it bluntly, what does the Sakayanagi Family amount to compared to the Aragaki Family?

The Advanced Nurturing Board of Directors may have some influence, but what we really need to pay attention to is the Kijima Faction behind them.

In Kanzaki's opinion, among all the students at Kodo Ikusei Senior High School, Aragaki Shun and Ayanokoji Kiyotaka had the most powerful backgrounds.

If the forces behind them really wanted to exert their influence, they could directly communicate with the Kijima Faction to force the current Board Chairman to step down and replace the school with an Acting Board Chairman.

In this situation, what's wrong with Aragaki Shun going home after leaving school?

Which faculty or staff member on campus is so bored as to bother with this?

Even if Chairman Sakayanagi found out, he would at most laugh it off and wouldn't say anything more.

Why forbid Aragaki Shun from going home to visit? Does this mean they want the Aragaki Family Head to come to the school in person to see him?

"It's alright, I left school through the proper channels. Look at Shibata, he also leaves school to participate in club competitions, doesn't he?"

After sorting through the numerous letters, Aragaki Shun stretched and offered a dismissive explanation.

He wasn't asking for special treatment when it came to his application to leave school.

Many Advanced Nurturing competitive clubs already have the opportunity to participate in various competitions outside of school. After achieving results in these competitions, they will also be rewarded with Private Points by the school.

After all, this school receives so much support from the government. If it couldn't win honors from other high schools to prove itself, it would have been swallowed up by countless criticisms long ago.

Aragaki Shun wants to leave school during summer vacation; all he needs to do is get an invitation from an outside publisher to participate in relevant activities, making sure the reason is acceptable.

As for his actual actions after leaving school... Aragaki Shun believed that the supervising faculty members would definitely help clean up the mess.

"But these letters?"

Ichinose else was fine, but wouldn't these letters collected from the other students in Class A be discovered before they even left school?

"It's okay, I'll handle it."

Knowing that Ichinose was a kind and good child, Aragaki Shun didn't explain in more detail, but instead looked at Kushida Kikyo, who had been silent the whole time.

"Kushida, what brings you to our Cultural and Entertainment Club? You're such a busy person who's always socializing, do you really have time to join my club?"

I really wanted to roll my eyes at her, but Kushida was currently in her angelic, innocent mode, so I couldn't bring myself to do it.

Meeting Kanzaki and Ichinose's inexplicable gazes, the girl smiled gently.

"I never expected Aragaki-kun to be helping the students in Class A with something like this. It seems I've come at the worst possible time."

"Please rest assured, I will absolutely not report this to the school. After all, Aragaki-kun risked his life to send the message outside the school in order to help everyone."

Upon hearing this assurance, neither Kanzaki nor Ichinose spoke, but simply turned to look at Aragaki Shun, awaiting his decision.

In truth, both of them were somewhat confused as to why students from other classes had to hear such a thing.

Could it be that Kushida Kikyo from Class D is also one of Aragaki's own people, whom he had already won over?

"Don't worry, Kushida is trustworthy."

Aragaki Shun smiled and acknowledged their guesses.

Since that night, Kushida Kikyo has always presented him with an icy demeanor. There's absolutely no doubt that this three-faced woman is one of his own.

"I see," Kanzaki Ryuji nodded, welcoming Kushida. "It seems it won't be long before Kushida officially joins our Class A."

"Um, my current savings are still a long way from reaching 20 million. Kanzaki's blessing is a bit too early."

"It's alright. Since Aragaki acknowledges him, it's fine to consider Kushida as one of our own in Class A from now on. It's only a matter of time anyway."

Kushida Kikyo's lips twitched, and she had no choice but to put on an awkward yet polite smile.

Although she had already decided to graduate from Class A, given the angelic image she cultivated, this act of leaving Class D to go to Class A alone was truly damaging to her image.

So she had to forcefully change the subject, "I heard that the Cultural and Entertainment Club founded by Aragaki is the kind that provides funding for club activities while also being very relaxed and free. Many classmates seem to find it unbelievable. Is that true?"

"Funding for Advanced Nurturing student organizations is allocated based on the achievements of each organization."

Glancing at Kushida Kikyo, Aragaki Shun couldn't help but mentally complain that her technique for changing the subject was so stiff, completely unlike the usual style of the little angel.

"Theoretically speaking, my achievements alone are enough to meet the school's requirements for the Cultural and Entertainment Club."

Not to mention he's also the Vice President of the Student Council. Is there a problem with me approving funding for another club of mine and having Manabu Horikita stamp it?

"However, in order to prepare for possible inspections from the school, members of the Cultural and Entertainment Club still need to submit one or two articles every week."

As for the quality of the manuscript, Aragaki Shun did not make any demands.

It's just for show. To be honest, which school club doesn't have one or two ordinary members who are just there to make up the numbers?

"Kushida, if you want to join the Cultural and Entertainment Club, I can approve it for you on the spot, and you'll be treated the same as everyone else."

"If you are truly interested in developing your career in this creative field, I can still offer you some guidance, particularly in novels and comics."

Kushida Kikyo: "..."

Will your guidance allow me to become a top light novel author at a young age, just like you?

Or she doesn't need to be top-notch; she'd be content as long as she could become a professional writer and have her works published in the hundreds of thousands or millions of copies.

If she could have hundreds of thousands of fans across the country, why would she care about those idiots in real life?

"Thank you for the suggestion, Aragaki -kun, but I don't think I have the talent for it."

"Actually, I came here today to invite you all to go Swimming together, but for some reason, the school's large Swimming opened early."

216. The Pool Peeping Incident; Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's Report

"Actually, I came today to invite you all to go Swimming together, but for some reason, the school's large Swimming opened early."

With her hands placed in front of her chest, Kushida deliberately struck an energetic and cute pose.

"Everyone in the class wants to go swimming with the students from Class A. They even asked me to invite Aragaki- kun."

"A large Swimming?"

Raising an eyebrow slightly, Aragaki Shun accepted the invitation without hesitation.

"No problem, the school was willing to open the area ahead of schedule, which was originally because of the application I submitted to the Student Council."

"Even if you didn't say anything, I'd still go out and play with everyone in Class A tomorrow."

The temperature was still quite hot in late August, and the classmates hoped to organize a Swimming activity together.

Coincidentally, the Advanced Nurturing did indeed build a very large Swimming.

That's a facility exclusively for the Swimming Club, renowned for its comprehensive equipment and powerful features; its scale is in no way inferior to the water park on Luxury Cruise Ship.

In the past, that Swimming was not open to the public except when the Swimming Club needed to use it.
