“There are snacks!”

Yanai's eyes lit up at first, and then he said calmly: "Since President Amakusa thinks I can't help you, then I won't cause any trouble. I will just be responsible for keeping all the consumables for you."

"What's the difference between asking you to watch over snacks and asking a monkey to guard a peach orchard? Would anyone really do such a stupid thing?"

Li Mo complained.

"That's not the case! I'll definitely take good care of the snacks!"

Yanami protested, "I'll make up for the missing part with somen noodles!"

Li Mo was stunned: "You haven't finished eating that yet..."

"Come to think of it, the original performances at the Founder's Festival were mostly poetry recitations, and there wasn't any snack service. If they're going to improve even that now, will the funding really be a problem?"

Yukinoshita Yukino asked with a frown.

"Well, I'll transfer the budgets of those abolished clubs and use them here."

Amakusa Shino said happily: "Originally, the Ministry of Magic and the Ministry of Service would also become the flesh and blood of the Founder's Festival, goo goo goo..."

The girl probably wanted to make a villain's strong laugh like "hehehe", but because of her voice and aura, her laugh was inexplicably funny and cute.

It also sounds a bit like the sound of a pigeon.

"Regretfully, neither the Student Council nor my Ministry of Magic has provided any budget. I'm truly sorry that I can't be a part of the Founder's Festival."

Yukinoshita Yukino gave a sarcastic smile.

"No, no, no, the Ministry of Magic is a formal club with a sufficient number of members. We have membership fees."

Li Mo said, "Although I can only buy two boxes of instant noodles."

"Eh, is that all? But..."

Yanai couldn't help showing a look of surprise when she heard this, but she didn't say anything else. She just looked at Li Mo with a rather complicated look.

Li Mo, knowing that he had accidentally let the cat out of the bag and caused the other party to discover that he had paid for the previous hot spring trip, immediately made a zipper gesture on his mouth and said no more.

"I think even if Amakusa-san didn't use such deliberate threats, Koyuki would definitely help."

Yuigahama Yui said.

"Yuigahama, didn't you just naturally want the Ministry of Magic to stay out of this?"

Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Huh? That's not the case, but how should I put it..."

Yuigahama Yui had a distressed expression, as if she didn't know how to describe her thoughts.

However, Yukinoshita Yukino still read what she wanted to express from the other person's face: Asakura-san is already very tired, and asking him to do this kind of thing is a complete waste of his talent.

Recalling the strange phenomenon on Mount Kumotoriki in the previous news, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but fall silent for a moment.

Fortunately, the girl adjusted quickly and immediately asked Amakusa Shino, "So what do you want us to do? Contact the students who were rejected by the student council to participate in the Founder's Festival performance?"

"That can be left to the student union. In fact, I'm the only one who's qualified to do it, as someone with official student union credentials. But as I said before, about half of the program applications are rejected, and of that half, only a little over half are actually invited to participate in the Founder's Festival. Putting aside the time-consuming, labor-intensive, and expensive stage plays, those programs alone wouldn't be enough to fill the required performance time for the Founder's Festival."

The girl looked around the activity room before continuing, "So, I hope you can prepare some performances to liven up the atmosphere, to warm up the crowd during the Founder's Festival... Well, one performance per club, and the president will prepare an extra one, so four in total should be enough."

"No, wait a moment."

Yukinoshita Yukino gave Amakusa Shino a death stare: "Wouldn't that mean I have to prepare two programs by myself?"

"Any questions?"

Amakusa Shino asked.

"The problem is your head."

Yukinoshita Yukino said this with conviction straight from her heart.

"Oh my, are you sure you want to say that there's something wrong with my brain because I ranked ninth in the last academic test?"

Amakusa Shino looked at Yukinoshita Yukino (tenth in the grade) and asked in a rather superior tone.

"Temporary success or failure is not an accurate indicator of a person."

Yukinoshita said coldly.

"Then what is the measure? The sharpness of one's tongue?"

Amakusa Shino looked at her without fear.

"Everyone, stop arguing and just get along peacefully..."

Yuigahama Yui (grade 59) said weakly.

"Damn it! Our spiritual pressure is too weak to intervene in the battle for the top ten in our grade!"

Yana saw Kyouna (grade 43) shielding her face with one hand, making an expression as if she was intimidated by the aura of the two people.

Seeing that the atmosphere seemed to be getting worse due to the tit-for-tat between the two, Li Mo felt that this was the time for him to show his composure as the top student in the grade.

So he coughed lightly, attracting the attention of Yukino and Amakusa Shino to himself.

Then he spoke in a gentlemanly and elegant tone.

"How much milk do you use?"

"Shut up--!" The two people who were originally arguing with each other shouted at the same time with 400% synchronization rate.

Chapter 143: Cunning guy.

"Single move to A!"

Li Mo played the cards in his hand.

Feeling that continuing to talk like this would make the atmosphere weird again, he took out two decks of playing cards for everyone to play while talking.

Although Yukinoshita refused to play cards and was still reading her paperback on the side, Amakusa Shino happily joined the Ministry of Magic's poker game.

"I always feel that there is a strange malice in your words..."

The girl muttered, "Pass."

"Speaking of which, can we invite someone from outside the school to help with the performance?"

Li Mo asked.

"Well, although we've confiscated the budgets of several clubs, the clubs that are being disbanded are already poorly run. They haven't achieved any results in a long time, so the club fees they can be allocated are very limited. After adding up the necessary supplies like decorative paper, the remaining money is already very tight just for snacks and drinks."

Amakusa Shino shook her head. "Forget hiring a professional band. Even the cost of an amateur band performing in an underground livehouse is unaffordable."

In fact, if you want to find a band, you can definitely find a band that is willing to come for a chance to perform in front of many people even for free. However, neither Li Mo nor Amakusa Xiao are familiar with this aspect. It doesn't matter if the band they find is of poor quality. But if they find some people with bad character and cause a scandal in the school - such as hooking up or even unilaterally touching girls - that would be a big problem.

At least Li Mo didn't think that the problem could be solved simply by Tianca Xiao bowing and saying "Red Bean Paste Simi Masai" at the student assembly.

"What I mean is... well, forget it. Whoever played that card just now... well, I'll pass this one too."

What Li Mo actually wanted to ask at the beginning was whether junior high school students from other schools could also come to help. After all, Gokou Ruri and Onumi Yoshiki are both very capable types. If they can come to help, both the work and the performance will definitely go more smoothly.

However, when he thought that the Founder's Festival was not on a holiday but a normal working day, and their school should not be on holiday, Li Mo immediately gave up the idea. After all, asking them to take leave to come and help in order to save some effort on his side would be a shame for anyone with a little shame.

"Hehe, I'm sorry for all of you guys who are still chatting about work and not really paying attention to the game, but I only have two cards left! And the right to play the cards has fallen into my hands!"

Suddenly, Yanami laughed triumphantly: "The game is over, because the next card I play is this, Joker!"

"The listed Vadokana!"

Li Mo, speaking a line that would boost his fashion sense, played a card in his hand: "Cyclone."

"Wait a minute, is this something from the playing cards?"

Yana noticed that Kyona was stunned for a moment, then protested.

"This is the newest version of poker,"

Li Mo replied seriously: "Very fresh and very interesting."

"Forget it, you still have five cards in your hand anyway, it's not that easy to win..."

The girl muttered.

"No, the game is over."

Li Mo smiled complacently.

"Why does this line sound familiar..."

Yanai frowned and looked suspicious.

"Because the cards in my hand are Sealed Right Hand, Sealed Left Hand, Sealed Right Foot, Sealed Left Foot, and Torrent Burial! According to the rules, I win the game!"

"It's really not a poker game anymore! And there's even a weird card mixed in! It's more like there's no victory at all!"

The girl was so angry that she dropped the 2 of Spades in her hand and looked at Li Mo viciously, as if she wanted to bite something.

Li Mo gracefully put down the cards in his hand, and then asked Tiancao Xiao seriously: "By the way, what do you think of my performance just now?"

"Manzai? Not that I can't, but if I perform with a girl, it feels like flirting, and it might even cause protests from the boys..."

Amakusa Shino said.

"No, I mean the fireball one."

Li Mo said this while happily admiring Yanajian's annoyed look, who was so angry that his teeth were itching, but could only stand still because he saw him talking about serious matters with Amakusa Shino.

"Oh, you mean magic?"

Amakusa Shino pondered and said, "It's not impossible, but it feels a bit plain... and the flame is so small, the audience in the audience probably won't be able to see it clearly."

"During the official performance, it will be about the size of a tennis ball."

Li Mo discussed with her: "And we can guarantee that there will be no exposure."

"That being said, using fire is still a bit dangerous. Can you choose a more... well, more surprising magecraft?"

Amakusa Shino said with some distress.

Although she didn't care much, the school's top management would definitely show up during the Founder's Festival. If some stupid senior executive thought that Li Mo's magic was too dangerous and criticized him and asked him to make changes, it would be like a bad apple, disgusting everyone for the whole day.

"It's not impossible."

Li Mo thought about it for a while, and a bunch of interesting magic tricks popped up in his mind.

However, he was not sure whether to perform or not. After all, it was somewhat inappropriate to show supernatural powers in front of so many people.

"It's just that I need to think about it. After all, you should also understand that a good performance must require thorough preparation, right?"

Li Mo winked at Tiancao Xiao.

The latter was indifferent and even thought that Li Mo just had dry eyes and suggested that he use eye drops.

Because she still had student union work to do, after confirming the situation of the Founder's Festival and the performance time that needed to be made up with Li Mo and the others, Amakusa Shino left in a hurry.

"Amakusa-san is so enthusiastic about the Founder's Festival. Is she really that into dirty jokes?"

Yuigahama Yui couldn't help but say as she looked at the other person's receding back.

"You're mistaken. President Amakusa probably took over the Founder's Festival not just to gain promotion... After all, even if she didn't cause trouble, the next student council president would probably be someone else. For her, the Founder's Festival is a completely thankless task."

Li Mo shook his head and glanced at Yukinoshita Yukino, who was as steady as a rock but whose inner thoughts were completely unpredictable and needed to perform two programs: "Look, although Minister Yukinoshita acted very resistant, she didn't actually refuse. Isn't that the best proof?"

"What do you mean?"

Yuigahama tilted her head with a cute puzzled expression.

"Amakusa-san... although she didn't say it explicitly, she probably just wanted to give those students who have put in a lot of effort but were rejected by the student council and not allowed to perform at the school festival a chance to show themselves on stage."

After all, if the Founder's Festival wants to achieve results, there is no need to stick to the auditorium stage. All it needs to do is cater to the school's tastes and focus the theme of the Founder's Festival on improving academic ability and admission rates. There is no need to actually implement it, just create an enthusiastic atmosphere of "doing it" and the school will be satisfied.

This is much simpler than having a group of students eliminated from the student union perform on stage, and it is not as easy to cause accidents as the latter.

And Amakusa Shino chose without hesitation to let the students stand on the stage to fulfill their dreams, so that the sweat and energy they spent on practice would not be in vain. She even emptied out all available funds for this purpose, striving to make the stage over there more attractive. It is obvious what her purpose is.

Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at Li Mo and said meaningfully, "Even though he's awkward and full of dirty jokes, President Amakusa is at least sincere. He's different from some people who don't tell the truth."

"Oh? That's not necessarily true. I haven't told a single lie today."

Li Mo spread his hands.

"Yeah……"

Yukinoshita Yukino originally wanted to mention his fireball magic, but suddenly realized that the other party seemed to have never said that it was magic from the beginning to the end, and was vague every time. It was just that Amakusa Shino made the mistake of empiricism and subconsciously thought that it was magic, without any doubt.
