"You may not believe it, but according to that guy, the reason he let this matter develop was actually just to let his precious daughter learn something from this unforgettable failure."
"No! I believe it! That explains it."
Aragaki Shun narrowed his eyes, looked up at the faculty building, and once again confirmed the position of Sakayanagi Arisu in the chairman's heart.
People cannot learn by teaching others; things can teach people once, which is enough!
There are some truths that you won’t care about no matter how you say them unless you experience them yourself and pay a heartbreaking price.
This is the biggest difference between the second generation with a family background and ordinary people who start from scratch - the capital to make mistakes.
Ordinary people who start from scratch cannot make mistakes, because once they make a mistake, there is no room for recovery.
They failed in their business ventures and were either heavily in debt or could not bear the blow and ended their lives. In short, few of them were able to survive and make a comeback.
But for the second generation, if their business fails, they will go home and inherit billions of assets.
"So what was the reason that the chairman went to so much trouble to tell Sakayanagi Arisu?"
"Should I think twice before I act, or should I forgive others when I can?"
Aragaki curled his lips, still a little unhappy about being used as an educational tool.
"Hahaha~ Who knows how that guy is going to influence his daughter's mind? Anyway, I think it's a bit risky. After all, Arisu was spoiled by him."
"Because that child has had a childhood illness, Sakayanagi has been reluctant to speak harshly to her and has always used the term 'genius' to coax her. Now that he's discovered the problem, he wants to correct it. The only way is to use you, a true genius, to give her a beating."
Director Kanda's suppressed laughter could be heard from the phone. It was obvious that he was enjoying watching his colleague having fun.
"Please don't flatter me. 'True genius,' that kind of boring title, please don't give it to me."
"At your age, Shun-kun, and with such abilities, it would be better if you were more energetic."
Director Kanda's voice was very gentle, and Aragaki Shun seemed to be able to feel the elder's earnest expectations for the younger generation.
"Since its founding, High School has produced countless talented individuals, but none of them can compare to you. Your title of 'genius' is recognized by all of our directors, so you can accept it with confidence."
"By the way, I'll tell you an interesting story. That Sakayanagi guy was really jealous of Aragaki-sensei for being able to find an heir like you. He even joked with me at the time that it would be great if he could bring you back to the Itayanai family."
"...I see. It seems Sakayanagi Arisu's heart disease is truly incurable. Has the chairman already prepared to train a successor?"
Ignoring Director Kanda's teasing, Aragaki Shun immediately grasped the most crucial information.
No wonder the chairman chose to teach his daughter such a lesson. It seems that he also wanted to temper the little princess's temper before the future heir of the Sakayanagi family was determined.
Otherwise, once the heir is determined, all the connections and resources of the Sakayanagi family will be tilted towards him, and Sakayanagi Arisu's status will inevitably decline sharply.
"If it could be cured, it would have been cured long ago. How could it have been delayed until now?"
After all, it is a congenital heart problem. Even if heart transplantation is used, there are still many problems such as shortage of donor organs, surgical risks and long-term immunosuppression.
Director Kanda is not aware of the more detailed condition of the illness.
But he was certain that if there was a chance of a complete cure, given Chairman Sakayanagi's doting on his daughter, he would definitely let her recover before being discharged from the hospital. How could he delay treatment for the so-called school experience?
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. What I want to know now is, how much did the chairman pay to provide lessons for his daughter?"
Ignoring Arisu Sakayanagi's condition, Shun Aragaki brought the topic back to the final outcome of the rumor incident, which was related to how much source power he could obtain from it.
"Let's not talk about Arisu's situation for now. The school will announce it tomorrow, so I can't tell you right now."
"However, Sakayanagi has confirmed that he will suspend his duties as chairman starting next semester. During the remaining period, the board of directors will cooperate with him in handing over the responsibilities he held as chairman."
"Huh?" Aragaki Shun was genuinely shocked by the news. "Chairman Sakayanagi just resigned?"
Just such a matter could be solved by having Arisu Sakayanagi expel from school, but it actually developed to the point where Sakayanagi Narimori had to step down?
Why doesn't he believe it!
No matter how they think about it, the Sakayanagi family will not easily give up the position of Chairman of Advanced Training.
To put it bluntly, the importance of the chairman himself is far less than what this position means to the Itayanagi family, not to mention Sakayanagi Arisu who has basically no chance of inheriting the Itayanagi family.
"Is this what Prime Minister Onijima meant? Otherwise, I don't believe the Sakayanagi family would voluntarily give up their base."
But why would Prime Minister Onijima torment his confidants for no reason?
Director Kanda: “…”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time. Aragaki Shun waited patiently, and finally heard another voice from the other end: "...I can't tell you the details for now. All you need to know is that this matter is related to the white room."
"Is it Ayanokouji Kiyotaka?"
Director Kanda just gave a brief reminder, and Aragaki Shun roughly understood that the struggle between those people above was definitely involved.
This is probably one of the reasons why it is particularly easy to obtain source power after coming to Advanced Development High School.
Because the background of this school is really outrageous, it will always attract the attention of some of the top people in Sakurajima.
"That child has been very low-key since he started school. How come you knew about this?"
"The White Room is a masterpiece. I haven't paid much attention to it, but I still have some impression of it."
"It's up to you to decide. Anyway, starting next semester, I will temporarily take over Sakayanagi's job and become the acting chairman of this school."
"That's great. Looks like I can do whatever I want in Advanced Training High School just like Arisu Sakayanagi."
This was a bit surprising, and Aragaki Shun couldn't help but make a joke.
"Hahaha~ It's just a temporary replacement, and I won't be able to do it for long. Besides, even Sakayanagi has to abide by all the school rules, let alone me as a replacement."
"Shun-kun, if you're like that girl Arisu, causing trouble and deliberately stirring up trouble, I'll be very distressed too."
"Hmm..." Aragaki Shun hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't help but complain, "Given the current situation of the first grade, I don't think I should be reduced to that level."
"Actually, I'm confused by Sakayanagi Arisu's methods. With such a huge advantage at her disposal, why does she always resort to such devious tactics?"
No matter what, when the classes were first divided, the overall quality of the former Class A was better than that of the former Class B. In addition, with the chairman behind her, Sakayanagi had much better bargaining chips than him.
As for why the former Class A has fallen into such a half-dead state despite having so many advantages...that can only be explained by the gap between the leaders of the two classes.
"Given Arisu's physical condition, isn't it embarrassing for her to let her fight you head-on?"
"Hehe~ If that's the case, then why did she choose to enroll in a highly competitive school like Advanced Training? The chairman had no sense of evasion and openly sent her to the former Class A."
Due to the special nature of Koukou Yucheng High School, the chairman of the board of directors of this school cannot have absolute control over everything.
But for ordinary students, the identity of the chairman's daughter is still quite intimidating.
Not to mention whether the chairman of the board will abuse his power for personal gain, even if he is truly fair and just and acts in accordance with the rules and regulations, there are still a lot of faculty and ordinary students who want to curry favor with the chairman.
There is never a shortage of people in this world who secretly try to figure out what their superiors are thinking. The chairman doesn't need to say anything; he just needs to sit there, and other self-proclaimed smart people will naturally make their own choices.
The most obvious example is Masayoshi Hashimoto, the guy who took the initiative to act as a white glove.
"Under normal circumstances, as long as no one takes the initiative to provoke this kind of thing, the Council will not deliberately stop it. After all, it is a bit thankless."
"Sakayanagi's idea is probably to let his daughter stay in the original Class A for a few months. As long as she can demonstrate her abilities during this time, the school will be able to provide an explanation to some extent even if someone questions the class division later."
In other words, let Arisu Sakayanagi take control of the former Class A, and then make some contributions to this class so that the former Class A can maintain its leading position... In this way, even if some people think that Arisu Sakayanagi should go to Class D and sit at the same table with the defective products, the school can emphasize that he entered Class A with the wisdom that was enough to ignore his flaws.
However, the reality is that under the leadership of Arisu Sakayanagi, the former Class A fell in the class rankings in the first month of school, creating an unprecedented record in High School.
In this case, it is impossible to explain why the chairman abused his power for personal gain.
Even in the eyes of many senior school leaders, it was precisely because of the selfishness of the chairman that Gaodu Education encountered such an outrageous situation of making a mistake in strength certification from the very beginning.
Therefore, Director Kanda has actually always suspected that the reason why Sakayanagi Narimori handed over the position of chairman so decisively, in addition to the reasons for Ayanokouji Atsuomi, was probably because he wanted to take the initiative to detonate this bomb while the situation was still controllable to prevent anyone from using this handle to attack him in the future.
After all, Sakayanagi resigned from the position of chairman for this, so the matter has been officially covered. Anyone who makes trouble because of this will be considered unreasonable.
"So it was really me who ruined the chairman's arrangements?"
Aragaki Shun sneered and kicked the stones on the road twice casually, without feeling anything at all.
If the chairman can abuse his power for personal gain, then why can't he take action to restrict the other party?
This rumor incident was caused by Arisu Sakayanagi being bored and taking the initiative to stir up trouble. Isn't he allowed to give others a taste of their own medicine?
"Sakayanagi probably never thought that someone with your background would be so actively involved in class competition, right?"
"In previous years, there were many wealthy and powerful people from all over the country who enrolled in High School, but most of them were solitary and uninterested in class competition."
In fact, in this class, Koenji Rokusuke and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka are in a similar situation, and in the second grade there is Kiryuin Kaede.
The three of them also have backgrounds that the chairman values, but if they were in Aragaki Shun's position, they would definitely not try to limit the chairman's power because of class competition.
Xinyuan smiled without saying anything. Could he say that the main motivation for doing this was actually to better obtain source power?
"Okay, we've almost finished chatting. Does Shun-kun have any other opinions? Tomorrow the Council will announce the final results of this incident, and your side is a crucial part of it."
"My opinion, I won't go into all the other details. I believe the school will make all the arrangements. There's just one thing," Aragaki Shun paused, making sure the other party wouldn't miss anything. "Since the chairman has taken the initiative to suspend his duties, it seems that Sakayanagi Arisu won't be expelled."
"So my request is, since the chairman won't be leaving school until next semester, let Sakayanagi be suspended until next semester."
"That's a reasonable request, isn't it? After the chairman leaves school, Sakayanagi can come back. That way, no one will have to worry about the chairman showing favoritism."
Even if she returns after a few months of suspension, there will be no place for her in the first grade. Even Kamuro Masumi has been recruited by Aragaki Shun.
When he thought about Sakayanagi Arisu having to go to school alone with a cane in the future, Aragaki Shun wanted to laugh...
137. Aftermath of the rumor incident; Ichinose Honami wants to talk
After reaching a consensus with the board of directors, it was decided that Arisu Sakayanagi would be suspended until next semester and could only return after the chairman of the board was suspended.
On this basis, other processing results will not be made public until tomorrow.
In this regard, Aragaki Shun also had some guesses. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be some compensatory measures. After all, the emotions of other students in the next grade must be appeased.
After communicating all these things, the two naturally ended the conversation.
At this time, the sky outside became extremely dark, and he had nothing else to do outside, so he chose to turn around and go back to the dormitory.
only--
"Why are you all gathered outside my dorm? If you really have nothing to do, can't you just go back to your own dorm and finish a few more homework assignments?"
After using the room card to open the dormitory door, a large group of classmates from Class A rushed in following Aragaki Shun.
Ichinose Honami, Shiranami Chihiro, Himeno Yuki, Kobashi Yume, Kanzaki Ryuji, Shibata Sa...all the students with higher status in Class A, regardless of gender, came, more than a dozen in total.
Aragaki saw that the originally spacious independent dormitory suddenly became extremely crowded, and he sat on his bed with a headache.
He was now thinking about whether he should use his personal points to apply for a larger apartment from the school tomorrow. Otherwise, he always felt that the space in this dormitory would not be enough in the future.
A faint fragrance came from beside him, and Aragaki came to his senses and found that Shiranami Chihiro had lowered her head and sat next to him without him knowing.
It doesn't seem surprising. After all, there is really no place to sit around. Didn't you see that boys like Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa just stood with their arms folded against the wall?
"Why can't you talk about it in the classroom or in the club? Why do you have to squeeze into my small dorm? What kind of hobby is this?"
"Uh~"
Kanzaki and the other boys looked a little embarrassed. They looked at each other and instinctively looked at Ichinose Honami.
"Haha~ That..." The pink-haired girl's eyes were a little vague, as if she didn't know how to express herself. In the end, she could only laugh dryly and said, "After all, this rumor incident is very bad, and everyone is concerned about Aragaki-kun, so I thought of coming to see him."
There was something unnatural on Ichinose's face, which was probably a very rare occurrence in the eyes of everyone in Class A.
However, when they saw this scene this time, Kanzaki Ryuji and others did not find it strange.
Because starting from noon, the rumors about Aragaki Shun on the campus forum became more and more intense, but more of the content was distorted into various romantic scandals.
Among the many rumored partners in the first grade, the couple of Ichinose and Aragaki Shun has the highest support rate in the entire high-level training.
It was precisely because of this strange incident that the students in Class A noticed Ichinose's strange behavior, but they didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all—
Even though they hadn't communicated privately, everyone in Class A tacitly turned their gazes to Shiranami Chihiro who was sitting next to Aragaki Shun.
Except for a few students who really have no common sense and low emotional intelligence, most people in Class A know that Shiranami Chihiro has always had romantic feelings for Aragaki Shun.
After all, the other party's performance was too obvious and there was no intention to hide it. She would even take the initiative to ask her close friends in her small group for help.
And now comes the question -
Ichinose Honami is also one of Chihiro Shiranami's close friends, and she is the best one among them.
In the past two months, Ichinose, Kobashi Yume and others have used various excuses to call Aragaki Shun out to go shopping together several times, just to create opportunities to capture Shiranami Chihiro... But now the rumors on the forum tell everyone that Ichinose is actually Shiranami Chihiro's biggest competitor?
Regardless of whether Ichinose had that intention or not, at least in the eyes of most people, the two of them were indeed a perfect match, completely surpassing Shiranami's support rate.
This is... quite fun!
Although they felt a little sorry for Shiranami, Kanzaki Ryuji and the others were indeed more interested in Aragaki Shun's fun.
After all, their class monitor has always shown an image of being in control of everything since he entered school, as if he doesn't care about anything. It would be quite interesting to see his embarrassed appearance in the Shura Field now.
