I walked into the teaching building and arrived at my second-year classroom.
Next to his seat was a short-haired girl with a bob haircut.
Kato Megumi, despite having a beautiful face and delicate skin, and a figure that can be described as curvaceous and perfect, is a beautiful girl who should be admired wherever she is, yet here she is completely ignored.
Takahashi Yu knew that it was because of the other person's faint presence that was easily overlooked.
To be honest, Takahashi Yu was quite surprised when he first learned that his deskmate was actually Kato Megumi. Before that, he had never noticed that his deskmate was actually a popular female protagonist from his previous life.
This may be related to the other party's faint presence, or it may be because Takahashi Yu really didn't have much time to focus her energy on other things at the beginning.
However, things are different now. The situation with the conglomerate has stabilized, and his body has synchronized with Killer Queen, the Stand that plays the role of Yoshikage Kagira. The influence of Megumi Kato's eerie presence is now negligible for Takahashi Yu.
At least for now, the two can communicate normally, so as the only one unaffected by the sense of presence, Takahashi Yu also became Kato Megumi's friend.
Good morning, Kato-kun.
"Good morning, Takahashi-kun. You're a little later than usual today."
"Something came up on the way, which caused a slight delay."
Upon hearing Kato Megumi's seemingly casual question, Takahashi Yu replied with a smile.
Because she was thinking about too many things on her way to the school gate, she was a little slower than usual. In addition, Shuchiin Academy is very large, so she arrived at the classroom a few minutes later than usual. Unexpectedly, Kato Megumi noticed her.
Although he always arrives at the classroom on time, isn't it a bit too clear that he remembers this?
Chapter 8: Kaguya Shinomiya and Chika Fujiwara, the Secret Base
After a morning of classes, at noon, Takahashi Yu took out her bento box, greeted Kato Megumi, and headed towards the student council.
He usually eats lunch at the student union, since the student union office is not only spacious and comfortable, but also free from outside interference.
However, on her way to the student council, Takahashi Yu noticed a figure quietly approaching her from behind.
"Fujiwara-san, can you tell me what you're trying to do by following me?"
"Ah?"
Upon realizing that the other person had noticed her, Fujiwara Chika, who was not far behind her, immediately showed a regretful expression.
"Seriously, I was planning to surprise the president when I got close, but why does he always find out? Isn't this a bit too unfair!"
"Anyone who gets approached like this every noon would become very perceptive, right? Fujiwara-san, who do you think is responsible?"
Arriving at the student council gate, Takahashi Yu opened the door and replied to Fujiwara Chika with a blank expression.
There were already people in the student council at this time, and it was clear that Takahashi Yu and Fujiwara Chika were not the first to arrive.
"Shinomiya-kun, you're here so early."
"It's just that we arrived a little early by chance, President, please don't worry about it."
Kaguya Shinomiya, sitting on the sofa, responded calmly.
Student Council President Takahashi Hayao, Vice President Shinomiya Kaguya, and Student Council Secretary Fujiwara Chika—these are the current positions of the three members of the student council.
In addition, there is also Ishigami Yu, the student council accountant who did not come to the student council for meals. This is the current composition of the main members of the student council.
Apart from Shirogane Miyuki, who failed to win the student council president election due to Takahashi Yu's appearance and thus began to work hard, the student council members remained largely unchanged.
Even after the malicious incident of Yu Ishigami being slandered in the original work occurred (to avoid sensitivity), Yu Takahashi also took action to prevent this classmate, who was a good person in the original work, from falling into ruin because of the slander after replacing Miyuki Shirogane's position.
Because of this incident, Ishigami Yu, after joining the student council, developed a deep respect for Takahashi Yu, especially after the latter made various reforms at the academy.
However, Takahashi Yu's progress with Shinomiya Kaguya was not very good. This ice sculpture beauty could not be melted in a short time. Not to mention that Takahashi Yu had only been the student council president for two months. In Takahashi Yu's mind, he could only be considered a friend who could talk to Shinomiya at most, and his relationship with Fujiwara Chika was not as good.
However, what Takahashi Yu didn't notice was that while he was chatting and eating with Fujiwara Chika, Shinomiya Kaguya, who was also eating a bento box next to him, was glancing at him from time to time.
In Takahashi Yu's mind, he and Shinomiya Kaguya were just friends who could talk to each other, but for Shinomiya Kaguya, this relationship was second only to that of Hayasaka Ai and Fujiwara Chika.
The Takahashi Group, while not a top-tier conglomerate like the Shinomiya Group, is still among the best of the first-class conglomerates, with a market value of trillions of dollars. Yet, despite being such a behemoth, Takahashi Yu not only took over the group at a young age, but also seems to wield considerable influence within it. This sparked great curiosity in Shinomiya Kaguya, the only daughter of the Shinomiya family, about the methods employed by this peer who was not much older than her.
However, under Kaguya's observation, this student council president, whose status was not much different from that of her father, the head of the Shinomiya family, did not have the same terrifying and chilling aura as her father, which did not change even when facing his own family. On the contrary, he was even somewhat approachable.
The difference between heir and controller is only one word, but their status is as far apart as heaven and earth. As the highest controller of the Takahashi Group, Takahashi Yu is a big figure whose status is not much lower than that of the Shinomiya General Manager.
Kaguya Shinomiya, the only daughter of the Shinomiya family and one of the heirs, is someone who cannot even control her own destiny and may even become a sacrifice used as a tool for a marriage alliance between her two brothers.
To be honest, Kaguya Shinomiya envied Takahashi Yu for being able to control her own destiny, but she also knew that under the suppression of her two older brothers, she probably didn't have that ability.
However, if it really is going to be used for an arranged marriage, then Chairman Takahashi seems like a good choice...
No, realizing what she was thinking, Kaguya Shinomiya quickly shook her head and patted her face to calm herself down.
She is Kaguya Shinomiya, the only daughter of the Shinomiya family who bears the name of Shinomiya. How could she not think about how to control her own destiny, but instead think about this kind of thing?
"Shinomiya-kun, what happened?"
Perhaps because Kaguya Shinomiya's reaction was a bit too much, Takahashi Yu and Fujiwara Chika turned their heads in confusion to look at Kaguya Shinomiya beside them.
"Is it because today's bento box doesn't suit your taste, Shinomiya-kun?"
"Judging from Kaguya's expression, she doesn't seem to have eaten much. Would you like to try our bento?"
"No...no need to trouble yourself. I just didn't have much of an appetite today. I have classes starting soon, so I'll be going now if there's nothing else."
Noticing that she hadn't eaten much of the entire bento box because she was lost in thought, Kaguya Shinomiya immediately closed the bento and left to avoid being misunderstood.
"I feel like Kaguya is acting a little strange today."
Watching Kaguya Shinomiya's departing figure, Chika Fujiwara asked in confusion.
"Could it be... that Kaguya-san has gotten her period?"
"Maybe you're just in a bad mood. What are you thinking about, Fujiwara-san?"
Takahashi Yu, standing to the side, said with a twitching at the corner of her mouth.
"What? They were clearly talking about adolescent emotional anxiety. The one who's thinking dirty thoughts is the student council president, okay?"
"Well, Fujiwara-san, have you forgotten that I didn't actually say anything?"
"Huh? The president is so cunning!"
......
And so, after school ended in the afternoon, after finishing the student council affairs, and after Fujiwara Chika, Shinomiya Kaguya and the others left one after another, Takahashi Yu closed the student council door and walked out of the school, which was almost empty.
A car stopped in front of Takahashi Yu, but it wasn't the same model that his family's driver had used to pick him up.
Takahashi Yu opened the car door and got in without saying a word.
"Go to Base One."
"As ordered."
The car, which had been specially treated to look quite inconspicuous, drove all the way out of the city and finally stopped in a deserted suburb.
This place appears to be an abandoned wasteland, a wasteland abandoned after a failed investment. However, more than half a year ago, it was secretly acquired by Takahashi Yu in his personal capacity and became one of his bases.
Of course, although it is called a secret base, it is actually a laboratory.
Chapter 9: Underground Experiment Base, Anomaly Research Institute
The sound of metal closing rang out, and through a specially designed elevator, Takahashi Yu entered this secret experimental base located underground in the suburbs, also known as the Anomaly Research Institute.
As you walk through the corridors, you can see staff members passing by from time to time, carrying all sorts of biological samples.
This is the storage area, responsible for storing materials used in experiments.
The Takahashi Group is a massive conglomerate with a market capitalization of trillions of US dollars, and it is involved in many industries, but its main focus has always been the pharmaceutical industry.
Naturally, with these conditions, Takahashi Yu, the current head of the Takahashi Group, easily recruited many world-class biologists to form the current underground experimental base.
Their main research focuses on the special organisms that frequently appear amidst the various disasters that occur around the world.
"How is the new batch of experimental samples I had delivered this morning?"
Takahashi Yu summoned the person in charge of the storage area and asked him questions.
"The samples that were brought into the base this morning are currently stored in storage area number four. The biologists in the laboratory are very interested in these samples and have been studying them since they removed some of the body tissue."
"okay, I get it."
Upon hearing this, Takahashi Yu nodded and turned to walk towards the area where the laboratory was located.
Because this world is still in its early stages, disasters are not occurring very frequently at this time. Sometimes they may not occur even once every one or two months, and at other times the interval is usually around one week.
Therefore, there are actually not many special biological samples in this experimental base at present.
This time, the experimental samples sent by Takahashi Yu were the corpses of dangerous species from the world of Akame ga Kill!
As a species unique to the world of Akame ga Kill!, Dangerous Species possess incredible power compared to normal creatures. A very small number of extremely powerful Super Dangerous Species can even be used as raw materials for forging Imperial Arms.
It is evident that the bodies of dangerous species are a tremendous treasure, possessing immense research value for Takahashi Yu and his research team.
"Incredible! Incredible!"
Upon arriving at the laboratory, Takahashi Yu saw several scientists shouting and yelling around an analytical instrument.
"The cell activity is hundreds of times that of normal organisms, and the body tissues do not conform to the standards of biomechanics at all. From a biological point of view, this organism should not only have a very short lifespan, but its bones and muscles should also have difficulty moving the whole body. However, from a realistic point of view, the strength of this organism far exceeds that of any known species on Earth."
"Furthermore, despite its extremely strong muscle tissue, the creature's body parts are very easy to eat, highly nutritious, and easier to absorb than normal food!"
Looking at the scientists who were analyzing the situation one after another, Takahashi Yu stepped forward.
Upon noticing Takahashi Yu's appearance, the biologists who were discussing the matter immediately fell silent and showed expressions of respect.
Every scientist who makes it here has undergone rigorous testing by Takahashi Yu to ensure they have no ulterior motives before joining.
After arriving here, they were naturally told a certain part of the "truth" by Takahashi Yu.
The world has changed. Terrible disasters beyond our comprehension will continue to occur in the future. They may be natural disasters, terrifying creatures that do not belong to this world, or special items with dangerous powers.
Supernatural disasters are beyond human control and will only become stronger, to the point that even nations cannot effectively resist them.
As far as these scientists know, the records known as the Disaster Archives contain various supernatural disasters, among which the disaster numbered 003, the "Wraith," cannot be eliminated by normal means.
Even without a boss, just a few vengeful spirits can easily throw an entire city into chaos.
To defeat these disasters, the only option is to "fight magic with magic," and it is the responsibility of these scientists to research and develop such power.
Therefore, after establishing this underground experimental base, these scientists enthusiastically devoted themselves to the cause of saving the world.
