People at the practical education center only want to drop out.

After finishing his own work, Horikita Manabu would not watch his subordinates work while he remained idle.

Therefore, Nagumo was worried that Horikita Manabu would come and "help" him complete the part of the task that was originally his responsibility.

It should be noted that these matters were originally the responsibility of Nagumo, who had a great deal of say in these matters; this was Nagumo's "power"!

Doesn't this mean that Horikita Manabu has taken power from him?

Horikita Manabu gave some power to Shirai and also took some power away from Nagumo.

Rounding it off, Horikita Manabu delegated some of Nagumo's power to Shirai!

How could Nagumo not look disgusted?

Bai Lan noticed Nan Yun's expression.

Nagumo seemed very reluctant to let him help Horikita with his work.

Therefore, under these circumstances, if Bai Lan were to accept the documents from Horikita Manabu, she would further offend Nagumo.

Since that's the case, then Bai Lan's opinion is—

"Ah, never mind, never mind." Bai Lan pushed the documents that Horikita Manabu handed over back.

Although doing so would offend Nagumo, Bai Lan herself would also be in a bad mood!

Work?

Why would Bai Lan need to find a job for someone else?

You should know that Bai Lan's ideal life is: not working, just doing what she likes, and supporting herself on the side.

To make others suffer, one deliberately seeks out pain.

Kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred.

Bai Lan disdained to do it.

Furthermore, there were actually beneficiaries in the matter of Shirai helping Horikita Manabu with his work!

The beneficiary is—Horikitaki Manabu!

In Bai Lan's view, Horikita Manabu probably had long been dissatisfied with Nangumo as the vice president, but "it's easy to invite a god but hard to send him away." After he recruited him, he couldn't just dismiss him without a suitable reason.

Horikita Manabu probably recruited him with the intention of having him compete against Nagumo.

What is this called?

Checks and balances!

Actually, before Bai Lan, Horikita Manabu had already done things to check and balance Nangumo.

Bai Lan discovered that another vice president of the student council was also a second-year student.

Kiriyama, a student in Class B of Grade 2.

But clearly, this name, Tongshan, didn't serve any purpose.

After all, the entire second year is currently under Nagumo's rule, which naturally includes Kiriyama's second-year Class B.

Even Tongshan was suppressed by Nanyun and became Nanyun's obedient subordinate. What kind of balance of power is there?

Furthermore, Nan Yun himself is a vice president, and his subordinates are also vice presidents, which means he occupies two vice president positions by himself.

It's important to know that the vice president is second only to the student council president in the student council, and there are only two vice presidents in the entire student council.

Both of these positions, second only to the student council president, are held by Nagumo.

This demonstrates Nagumo's power within the student council.

If Bai Lan accepts the documents from Horikita Manabu, he will be used by Horikita Manabu to suppress Nangumo.

In this way, while offending Nagumo, Bai Lan will also befriend Horikita Manabu.

The problem is, Bai Lan didn't intend to befriend Horikita Manabu, did she?

He was even thinking of having Horikita Manabu and Nagumo work together to drop out of school.

Weigh the pros and cons.

If Bai Lan accepts these documents, she will gain the following: "offending Nagumo", "befriending Horikita Manabu", and "job".

In fact, as long as "offending Nagumo" is what he wants, it is a "positive" outcome.

"Befriending Horikita Gaku" and "working" are both considered "negative" terms.

After the effects of "offending Nagumo" and "befriending Horikita Gaku" cancel each other out, the effects of each other are mutually offset.

All Bai Lan received was a "job"...

blood loss.

Therefore, Bai Lan refused.

"I'll be leaving right away, but before I go, there's something I'd like to tell the chairman."

"What is it?" Horikita Manabu asked without looking up as he signed the document with his head down.

"President, I'm going to report your sister!" Bai Lan covered her mouth with her hands, making a megaphone shape, and whispered.

Bai Lan wants to report the student council president's sister.

The student council president is Horikita Manabu, and Horikita Manabu's younger sister is naturally Horikita Suzune.

That's right, this is the method that Bai Lan came up with to effectively counter Horikita Suzune's so-called "lack of martial ethics".

This method is called—snitching, calling the parents!

"Hmm?" Horikita Manabu immediately raised his head, his brows furrowing slightly. He then covered his mouth with his hand and whispered, "What happened to Suzune again?"

Bai Lan looked aggrieved: "Your sister told me that she wants to gain your approval and become a sister you can be proud of. You think that since I was invited by you to join the student council, I must have gained your approval. So you want to use me to find your standard of 'approval'. You want me to cooperate with you to figure out your standard of 'approval' and help her gain your 'approval'."

Didn't you tell me to 'keep an eye on' her?

Out of respect for you, I'll give her a little help and agree to it.

As a result, she's been bothering me all day, asking me to do everything I can to find a way for her to gain your approval.

But I have my own things to do, and now I've joined the student council and become a disciplinary committee member. I'm about to make great strides in my career, so how could I possibly go all out to help her?

She knows I've been wanting to find a girlfriend lately, so she threatened me that she would do everything in her power to prevent me from doing so until I come up with a solution.

For example, spreading rumors that "I like the same sex".

For example, they might act in ways that appear to others as a friendly relationship, leading people to mistakenly believe that I'm already taken.

Or, they might spread rumors that I'm having multiple relationships, thus ruining my reputation.

In short, he tried every possible way to drive away all the girls who wanted to get close to him, so that I couldn't find a girlfriend.

I had already been tormented by her all morning before I came here, and I only went to the 'fourth and a half floor' for lunch in order to avoid her.

So, President, please do something about your sister.

After hearing Bai Lan's words, Horikita Manabu opened his mouth.

He subconsciously thought to himself, "Don't treat her like my sister. Do whatever you want to her. It's good for her to experience the dangers of this school sooner rather than later."

However, Bai Lan continued, "To be honest, I'm starting to understand. I even wanted to punch her, but I didn't have the heart to do it because of you."

I'm in a real dilemma.

As she said this, Bai Lan clenched her fists, looking like she was gritting her teeth.

As Horikita listened to the cracking sounds from Bai Lan's fist, he recalled the feeling of being kicked in the arm by Bai Lan last night.

Just thinking about this made Horikita Manabu's arms ache slightly.

He instantly swallowed back the words he was about to say.

“Rin is, after all, my own sister,” Horikita Manabu said.

"Does being the student council president's sister give you the right to bully others?" Bai Lan asked.

"What I mean is, I'll personally teach her a lesson in a bit, so you can go back without worry. She won't bother you anymore."

"My sister actually did this to you, and it was because of me. I apologize to you, and on her behalf. I'm sorry, Bai-kun," Horikita Manabu said apologetically.

"It's okay, it's okay, just make sure she fixes it, haha~ That's all I wanted to say, I'm leaving now, goodbye."

After succeeding, Bai Lan happily left the student council office.

108. Horikita Suzune: You actually complained to my older brother! Are you an elementary school student?

null

109. Horikita: If you can't beat them, join them.

On his way back to the classroom, Horikita Manabu emailed Horikita Suzune to confirm whether what Bai Lan said was true.

Just as Bai Lan had thought, Horikita Suzune was only just beginning to learn the skill of "shamelessness" and couldn't maintain it in front of her brother.

Having displayed such shamelessness in front of Bai Lan, he couldn't possibly lie to Horikita, and could only honestly reply to the message and admit it.

After receiving confirmation from Horikita Suzune, Horikita Manabu scolded her and explained: "Bai Lan has important things to do. Don't take up Bai Lan's time unnecessarily. If you want to ask for help, be more polite. Otherwise, you'll anger people. Even I, your brother, might not be able to stop you or protect you. Rather than watching you get beaten up and disgrace the Horikita family, you'd better drop out of school as soon as possible."

When Horikita Suzune saw the "warning to withdraw" in the email from Horikita Manabu, she immediately gave up struggling.

Horikita Suzune admitted her mistake in the email and repeatedly promised not to make the same mistake again, which made Horikita Manabu retract his "advice to withdraw".

After defusing the crisis of being persuaded to quit by her brother, Horikita Suzune breathed a sigh of relief, but soon, she began to feel angry.

"That guy Bai Lan! Damn it!" Horikita Suzune thought to herself, unconsciously clenching her teeth as if she were tearing someone's flesh and blood with her mouth.

Not long after, the person she had been longing for appeared at the back door of the classroom.

Horikita Suzune unconsciously stared at Shirai, who appeared at the classroom door, with a resentful gaze.

As Bai Lan walked towards her seat, she gradually approached Horikita Suzune.

As Bai Lan approached, Horikita Suzune stood up from her seat. Lowering her voice, she spoke to Bai Lan, who was passing by, in a resentful and angry tone, "As expected, when it comes to 'shamelessness,' I'm still a fraction of yours. You actually complained to my brother! Are you a primary school student?"

Bai Lan stopped and replied, "So you're useless, aren't you?"

After speaking, Bai Lan continued walking forward and soon reached her seat, where she sat down.

Horikita Suzune also sat down, glared fiercely at Bai Lan, and opened her mouth as if to say something.

She quickly realized that some of the things she was about to say were things she couldn't just tell other people.
