People bring their own maids to the training camp

"This little bit of money isn't enough for us to bribe her, is it?"

"Of course, this isn't for bribing her; it's for her to help us with the next task."

Should we target Nagumo?

“We can target him.” Chihaya nodded. “This guy is getting a bit too cocky. He probably thinks he’s already got his future chairmanship in the bag.”

After saying that, Chihaya snorted coldly.

"He won't become the president of the association easily."

"So, shouldn't we try to get a few people to join the student council?" Hayasaka asked. "Didn't you think highly of Suzune? We can have her take over her brother's position."

“We can consider it, but not now. Class D is not worthy of being the president right now. Giving them a secretary position would be the best they can do.”

"Ichinose? Doesn't she want to join the student council? And you two are good friends."

"Fanbo? She's got an idol complex about Nagumo now. We need to break that filter before we can get her to join."

"It's so good that you're not love-struck. I thought you would be the one to support her, based on what you did during the midterm exams."

"What we did during the midterm exams didn't really affect the overall situation, did it? It didn't conflict with our plans at all."

"That's true, but if you decide to risk everything for a woman, there's nothing I can do to stop you, is there?"

"...Do you think I would do such a thing?" Chihaya was speechless.

"That's why I said it's really great that you're not love-struck."

"Alright, arrange what I said, and then we'll go see Guilongyuan tomorrow. I want to see if she's really willing to become a mercenary for these points."

"clear."

----split line----

The next evening, at the same place.

Chihaya, dressed in men's clothing, slowly sipped a can of orange juice, while Hayasaka was also disguised. Although she was also a beautiful girl, she was not recognized as Hayasaka Ai from Class 1-B.

The two of them stood openly and without any pretense in front of the vending machine.

About two minutes before the appointed time, the 170cm tall, slender-waisted, long-legged beauty Kiryuin appeared and paused for a moment when she saw the two of them standing there.

She thought it would turn into a scene like a spy rendezvous.

"Good evening, Kiryuin-kun." Hayasaka stepped forward and greeted him. "This is my master."

"Good evening." Chihaya's deep male voice made it impossible to associate him with the top beauty of the first year of high school, Himiko Chihaya.

"Hello, I didn't expect you to meet me so readily."

“That’s true, but even if you see us, you won’t be able to find our class,” Hayasaka said. “So meeting up isn’t a problem at all; you can do it every week if you want.”

“Tsk, there’s no need for that,” Kiryuin said. “The purpose of this meeting is simple. I’ve been targeted by Nagumo lately, so he can’t do anything to me, but it’s really bothering me. So I’m hoping you can help me deal with it. You wouldn’t tolerate Nagumo’s behavior anyway, right?”

“Sure, Nagumo is a real pain in the neck,” Chihaya said. “So, are you interested in pulling off a heist together?”

"Oh? I'm very interested." Kiryuin became interested. "Tell me about the plan."

"This is your service fee, it's not much." Chihaya tossed over the pre-prepared points card. "I'll let you know the specifics of the operation once I've made the arrangements."

“Sure.” Kiryuin caught the card steadily. “I like working with straightforward people like you.”

"It won't seriously injure Nagumo, but it will allow you to vent your anger."

"Fine, fine, I'll do it even without this card! I've had my eye on that idiot for ages, with his dyed blond hair, thinking he's so handsome, disgusting!"

"I'll arrange for a few famous first-year students to set a trap. All you have to do is deal with Nan Yun's henchmen, okay?"

"Fighting is my specialty." Kiryuin clenched his fist. "The students in Nangumo's class are all weaklings; not one of them can fight."

“Okay, then I’ll leave it to you then.” Chihaya said. “Chihaya Himegami from Class 1-B will contact you and take charge of the front-line command. You two can just pretend to be close friends.”

"The first-year concubine? I didn't expect that she was one of yours too!"

“Anything is possible.” Chihaya smiled. “Only in this way will Nagumo take the bait, right? You must have heard about Nagumo’s many exploits, haven’t you?”

"Need I say more? He's already dated all the upperclassmen, and now he's probably eyeing the underclassmen." Kiryuin said impatiently, a look of utter disgust on his face. "That idiot... Pshaw!"

"My goal is to completely crush Nagumo step by step. You don't need to rush. Before Horikita steps down, I will gradually take control of the student council. I hope you can cooperate with me in the second-year assessment."

"No problem." Kiryuin agreed quite readily. "But what about the safety of that concubine? If I deal with her attendants, won't she have to face Nagumo alone?"

"Oh, you fought her before, right?" Chihaya pointed to Hayasaka beside her. "Himemiya Chihaya could take on two of her."

"...Excuse me." Kiryuin knew she was no match for Hayasaka, so Chihaya, who was twice as strong as Hayasaka, was even less of a concern for her.

After all, while Nagumo is considered strong for a boy, that's just because of soccer. In a real fight, he'd probably be no match for most people. At least Kiryuin is confident he could easily overpower Nagumo in a fight.

"Then I hope we can have a pleasant collaboration."

"Pleasant to work with."

Both parties reached a cooperation agreement regarding Nagumo.

Nan Yunya is unaware that someone else has their eye on him, and he is still gloating over receiving Chihaya's invitation.

"I'm sorry, senior, the exam content has suddenly changed, so the past exam questions you gave me were not useful."

"It's okay, passing the exam smoothly is the best outcome." Nan Yun smiled insincerely, but inwardly he was cursing the whistleblower to the core. After all, not only did he fail to increase Fan Bo's favorability, but he also failed to earn the points he expected to make a lot.

After all, it was Fanbo who gave him the archaeology question, not the other way around. Since it wasn't of any use, the other party naturally wouldn't be grateful for his help.

"Regarding the student council matters, you can start by working with us on some simple tasks in a while." Nan Yun could only keep Fan Bo hanging on by offering him this student council position.

"Really? Thank you so much!"

"It's nothing. I don't really understand President Horikita's actions either. They should be recruiting new talent from the first-year students. After all, President Horikita will be leaving the student council next semester. Honestly, if we let the first-year students join then, they'll have to start learning all over again. It will delay a lot of things."

"Besides me, will any other first-year students join the student council?" Fanbo asked curiously.

"For now, it's just you. The others are still under evaluation. If Ichinose has anyone she wants to recommend, I can consider it, such as the famous Princess from your class."

"Ah, has Chihaya's reputation already reached Nagumo-senpai's ears?"

"Of course, with her beautiful appearance and consistently ranking first in the grade, everyone in our student council has high hopes for Fei Gong. However, she doesn't seem to have any intention of joining the student council."

"Chihaya has joined two clubs, so she must be quite busy. Besides, she's a self-cook, so she has to cook after club activities."

"You're such a multi-talented person, it's a real shame you're not in the student council," Nagumo said. "Judging from how you address Ichinose, you must be quite close to Himegami, right? Why don't you try persuading your good friend to join the student council too?"

"Well, I'll give it a try, but you'd better not get your hopes up too high, senior."

"We should give it a try! I believe my ideas will be very much to the liking of an outstanding person like Consort Fei."

After seeing Ichinose off, Nagumo met with his classmates, who were also his core group.

"We found out. Someone witnessed Kiryuin from Class B helping to sell exam papers, the one with the really low prices."

"Tsk, Kiryuin has always been a loner, and that good-for-nothing Kiriyama would never dare to do something like this. As for President Horikita, he would disdain doing such a thing, so it was most likely done by some first-year student."

"According to the investigation, both Sakayanagi from Class A of the first year and Ryuen from Class C of the first year are likely to do such a thing - didn't Class C get first place in the midterm exam this time? They didn't have such high scores in the previous quizzes, and it's unlikely that they could improve their scores so much even in a month."

"Let's make contact with Kiryuin first, but don't do anything substantial to her. Just make her realize that someone is following her. After a while, she will definitely get impatient, and then that will be our chance to find out who is behind this."

"understood."

"Hmph, there's not much of an advantage to be gained by fighting with me, Nan Yun." Nan Yun snorted coldly.

He was completely unaware that he had been outmaneuvered.

96. Conspiracy

"Greetings, senior Kiryuuin." Chihaya greeted Kiryuuin with a smile.

"Hmm, hello." Kiryuin stared at Chihaya, who was dressed as a woman.

"Is there something wrong with my outfit, senior?" Chihaya tilted her head.

“It’s really beautiful,” Kiryuin suddenly said. “I was a little unconvinced before, but after seeing it up close, it’s truly breathtaking.”

"..." So that's why! Chihaya thought to herself, he had thought that the perceptive Kiryuin had discovered some flaw that made him a little nervous. "You flatter me, Senpai."

"But I didn't expect that even the two of you are that person's henchmen. Do all your big families like to play these kinds of games?"

"To be specific, it's a community of shared interests, you know?" Chihaya smiled faintly. "You should know that it's not a big deal for a family like ours not to graduate from Class A—actually, it's the same for you, right? You're good enough that even if you graduate from Class B in your senior year, you can just choose another school to repeat a year. As for the talk of 'repeat students,' I don't think you care."

"You seem to know me quite well?" Kiryuin asked with interest.

"Of course, it's standard practice to learn about your partner before collaborating. Besides, you can easily find out a lot about what you did in your first year by asking around, right?"

"Tsk, that's true." This super-strong student, who has always done his own thing since first grade and never contributed to the class, watched helplessly as his class dropped from Class A to Class B.

This is exactly the same as the Highland Temple in Class D of the first year, except that Class D has already fallen to the bottom.

“Then let’s coordinate our stories first,” Chihaya said with a smile, then took out a piece of paper and handed it to Kiryuin. “This contains some information about me. Just write it down. The key part is how we met.”

"Oh, you know me from the dojo, right? Let me see, Master XX from XX Dojo?"

"Yes, that's my teacher, so we'll use that as the standard. You can make up the rest yourself, like moving and changing dojos."

"The arrangements are quite comprehensive." Kiryuin looked at the various information on the paper, which had very comprehensively fabricated the life trajectory of a pair of close friends. Even Hayasaka Ai was written in it, and it was even mentioned that the two would meet again at this school.

“Senior Nagumo is not a good-for-nothing, so at the very least we cannot reveal any flaws in the most basic areas.”

“That makes sense. So what is the specific plan?” Kiryuin folded the papers and put them in his pocket. “I’ll write these things down when I get back.”

“It’s simple. We’re best friends. Now that you’ve offended Nagumo, I’ll apologize for you,” Chihaya said. “That’s about it.”

"Huh? Apologize to Nagumo?" Kiryuin was immediately displeased. "Why should I apologize to Nagumo?"

“This is part of the plan,” Chihaya said. “You can act reluctant; that will make it more believable.”

"...Can't you consider how the person involved feels?"
