Uneasy daily life

Phew, it's always more reassuring to wear clothes. Going shirtless is only suitable for cocktail parties, not for school.

Chapter 143 This is University!

"This...this is university? I've heard universities are very open, but this is way too open. Is today the day my fate ends? Calm down, take a deep breath..."

Shinichiro Yamamoto, a freshman in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, is facing a difficult decision that will affect his entire life!

What should I do...?

The fat man frowned deeply, caught in a dilemma.

"Assistance...Service Club? This name...is it a club? Wow! They even have girls' photos on their pictures, this...this..."

A surprised and uncertain voice came from the side: "Hahaha, it can't be what I think, right? You also suspect this is a prank, right?"

"Huh?" Shinichiro Yamamoto, who was staring at the target in deep thought, replied subconsciously, "I'm thinking about which one to choose."

"?" The tall, thin boy pushed up his glasses and blew on his long hair. "Give up. Judging from the pictures of those girls, it's just a trick this club uses to lure in new students, right? There's even a boy sitting behind the table. It's clearly a way to trick people into joining the club, collect a fee, and then there's no follow-up."

Shinichiro Yamamoto frowned and said, "What if it's true? Look at this Aid and Service Department, isn't it supposed to be about helping others and solving their problems? What makes you think this is a prank? What's your basis for saying that?!"

"Ha... what a lamb of desire, even knowing the grass is poisonous, it still can't bear to give up that fragrance."

The tall, thin boy pulled out a comb from somewhere and neatly combed his long hair back: "Let me prove to you that this is just a trap. Only a virgin like you would fall for it. If I become a laughing stock, that's what I deserve."

Although he hadn't suspected it was a trap, Shinichiro Yamamoto was still touched by the stranger's kindness: "Wait! I don't even know your name!"

"A name? That kind of thing..."

The tall, thin boy took two steps forward, stopping at a distance, and confidently showed his profile, speaking slowly.

……

"Hello, senior! I'm Nojima Gen, a first-year student majoring in Mechanical Dynamics—I was born to join the Aid Service Club!"

Bai Ying, who was looking down at her phone, looked up and glanced at the other person.

Nojima Gen smiled broadly, exuding confidence.

He wore a sleeveless jacket that exposed his arms, jeans with a hole in the knee, and long hair combed back (for a man), and although his appearance could be described as handsome and decent, his slightly exaggerated expression gave people a strange feeling.

Bai Ying put her phone aside: "Although the Aid and Service Department is a club I founded, I am also a freshman, so you don't need to call me senior."

"Okay, Minister!"

"Hmm? Your voice sounds a lot like someone I know." Bai Ying scrutinized him more closely. Clearly, he was different from that dead-fish-eyed, aloof subordinate. That subordinate exuded an air of insignificance and particularly liked to belittle himself to maintain his composure. This person, on the other hand, radiated confidence. "Tell me, why do you want to join the Aid Service Department?"

Nojima Gen glanced subconsciously at the notice posted on the table, then at the white figure, and slightly pushed up his glasses, giving himself time to organize his thoughts and formulate his words.

Is she a social butterfly? She definitely is! Her looks are only slightly less appealing than mine, yet she's so composed when talking to others, unmoved by my sycophantic remarks—she seems used to being praised too much. In other words, one of the girls pictured on the notice might be her girlfriend. If I answered that I was there for the girl in the picture, I'd definitely be labeled as having ulterior motives and kicked out on the spot…

Therefore, the correct answer is—

"Minister!" Nojima Gen said in a deep voice, "I love helping others the most. Their happiness is my happiness. In other words, my life's value lies in helping others!"

Bai Ying nodded: "I see. So the advantage is that you have no sense of shame and are very thick-skinned?"

Nojima Gen pushed up his glasses and gave a weathered smile: "After all, in this cold and indifferent society, you have to be shameless to help others."

Bai Ying nodded slightly: "You also like to make yourself seem like you have a lot of stories to tell, in other words, you pretend to be profound?"

Nojima Gen: "Minister! I am willing to fight for the club, even at the cost of my life!"

"Then I'll test you..."

Bai Ying stroked his chin, his gaze suddenly passing over Nojima Gen, and said in a deep voice, "Let's see if you're prepared to join my Assistance Service Department!"

Why are you looking behind me?

Nojima Gen subconsciously turned around and met Yamamoto Shinichiro's gaze as if he were looking at a traitor. He smiled slightly and said: "Sorry, good things are limited. Whoever goes first gets the benefits. Isn't that just how things are?"

"I want to join the Aid Service Club too!" Shinichiro Yamamoto pushed past Gen Nojima. "This is my lifelong request!"

The white-clad figure asked curiously, "You seem to need help more than you need to help others, don't you?"

Shinichiro Yamamoto: "But I really want to help others!"

"The reason why human society can exist is precisely because of mutual help and mutual needs, which leads to unity and connection. Just as every person is born from at least two people, it can be said that the foundation of human society lies in mutual connection."

Bai Ying nodded in agreement and said, "However, before you offer help to others, you might as well talk about the problems that are bothering you. You may think your problems are ridiculous, that others will point fingers at you, and that you will be ridiculed and gloated. But in the Assistance and Service Department, you don't have to worry about that. I have a lot of experience in dealing with other people."

"The problem that's been bothering me..."

Shinichiro Yamamoto looked around, hesitated for a moment, and then said confidently, "I want to lose my virginity!"

Nojima Gen suppressed the urge to scoff, putting on a standard business smile and trying his best to appear helpful. Having said that, he couldn't think of anything beyond a sarcastic remark...

"Hmm, that's a classic question." Bai Ying analyzed seriously, "Although you don't have a girl you like, and you lack excitement and longing for love and romance, your gradually emerging male instincts make you subconsciously pay attention to others and want to have corresponding things happen with them..."

Shinichiro Yamamoto: "..."

Bai Ying smiled and comforted him, "Friend, there's no need to feel uneasy or fearful about this. Animalistic nature is one of the most fundamental characteristics of humankind, something that no one can escape. The desire you hold is not some class-based anxiety about 'not wanting to be looked down upon,' nor is it a lonely social need to 'connect with others,' nor is it a beautiful vision of 'wanting to live a happy life'..."

“That’s right!” Yamamoto Shinichiro clenched his fist. This was a true confidant who understood him. “I just—”

Bai Ying stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and encouraged him, "You just harbor the purest and most innocent desire! You just want to be Superman!"

Shinichiro Yamamoto nodded vigorously: "Yes! I just want to be Superman! As long as I can get rid of this virginity, as long as I can be Superman—"

Nojima Gen finally couldn't help but complain: "You don't want to get a girlfriend to achieve upward social mobility, you don't want to take on the responsibilities of a couple, and you don't want to live a happy life with someone. You're just after your body—aren't you a scumbag who doesn't pick and choose his partners?!"

"I just want to lose my virginity, what's wrong with that as an animal?!" Shinichiro Yamamoto retorted immediately. "And you? Don't you want to lose your virginity too? You hypocrite!"

Nojima Gen immediately denied it, saying, "I didn't! I didn't! I just wanted to help others! Minister, this guy has ulterior motives. Recruiting him into the club will only tarnish the image of our Aid and Service Club!"

"What does this have to do with club recruitment? This student is here for help."

Bai Ying turned her head and said, "The purpose of the Aid and Service Department is to help others and solve problems for those in need. This has nothing to do with recruiting him into the club, but is the work that our club should do. You want to help others, right? Now let me see what you're capable of."

"?" Nojima looked at Yamamoto Shinichiro with a puzzled expression, thought for a moment, and hesitated before saying, "The breeding and care of male piglets is outside the scope of my knowledge..."

Shinichiro Yamamoto: "Hey——!"

Nojima Gen pushed up his glasses: "Okay, I recommend you go to the zoo to take care of it..."

"What does 'zoo' mean?!"

"An animal's instincts should be addressed at the zoo!"

"That person should be matched with someone!"

"What? You actually think your species is human? Animals have secretly evolved to this extent without telling humans? That's terrifying!"

Shinichiro Yamamoto was clearly no match for his opponent's sharp tongue, and he was quickly defeated. He decisively turned to complain, "Look at this scumbag! How is he a helpful person? He's obviously lying!"

"No, no, no..." Nojima Gen raised his hand to press his forehead, moved, "I'm already showing bodhisattva-like compassion by being willing to help you. After all, I can treat animals with the same empathy I have for humans. I'm so kind that I can save everyone, and I was born to join the Aid and Service Department."

"Although you did offer an effective solution, it didn't solve the other party's problem. That's not the style of the Aid and Service Department," Bai Ying commented. "How can just saying a few words be considered helping others? You should at least take practical steps to help him lose his virginity. That's what solving a problem means."

"?"

Nojima Gen paused for two seconds: "Practice what you preach?"

"?"

Shinichiro Yamamoto paused for two seconds, then asked, "Him?"

The two instinctively exchanged a glance, then simultaneously grabbed the corner of the table, tilted their heads, and bent over, exclaiming, "Yue—!!!"

"Wait! Minister, you're joking, right?!" Nojima Gen struggled out of his nausea. "What about our Aid Service Department...?"

Wait a minute! To be honest, I always thought the name of this "Assistance and Service Department" was strange, full of a suspicious yet alluring vibe. Although the notices showed a bunch of cute girls, it was actually a handsome guy who was almost as good as me working there...

In a moment of panic, Nojima Gen quickly shifted the blame: "Then why didn't you go?!"

Bai Ying frowned and said, "I have a girlfriend, how can you ask me to cheat on her? Is that reasonable?"

Nojima Gen was shocked: "Is your infidelity more serious than my coming out as gay?!"

"Otherwise what?" Bai Ying asked curiously. "Infidelity should be morally condemned and even used as evidence in court, while coming out is just a matter of personal orientation and public opinion. By all accounts, infidelity is more serious, isn't it?"

“Okay, that seems to make sense…” Nojima Gen thought it made sense, but then quickly realized, “Wait! How can I sacrifice my innocence for something like this!”

"Exactly!" Shinichiro Yamamoto quickly chimed in, "How could I possibly give my virginity to a man!"

"Is there anything strange about it?" Bai Ying sorted out her logic. "You don't care about the atmosphere, social relationships, or the person you're with. You're driven by the purest desire, so it doesn't matter whether the other person is a man or not, right? You say you're a helpful person and you happen to be single. Shouldn't you take the initiative to make sacrifices in this situation?"

Nojima Gen's eyes widened: "Are you kidding us?!"

Shinichiro Yamamoto, united in righteous indignation, exclaimed, "That's right! You've been playing us for a fool!"

"No, not at all." Bai Ying shrugged. "Your needs are quite unique, but the Aid and Service Department doesn't have any single men or women right now, only this student who just wanted to join—just make do with this, anyway, it won't make any difference once the lights are off, right?"

Nojima Gen: "#!"

Shinichiro Yamamoto: "#!"

Before the two could speak, a cute girl with pigtails came running up with a bag slung over her shoulder: "I've found a place, no problem. Have you already hired someone?"

Angelina glanced at Shinichiro Yamamoto and Gen Nojima, and breathed a sigh of relief—hmm, they're just two ordinary boys. It seems there's no need to worry about a repeat of what happened in high school.

“Although one person came to join, their skills are not very good…” Bai Ying said regretfully. “One wants to find a girl to lose his virginity, and the other wants to flirt with someone and boast about his abilities. They are both guys who talk about helping others but are only interested in messing around in the workplace. They have no professional spirit at all.”

"Yes, I see, hahaha..."

Angelina smiled and took a step back, half-hiding behind the white figure—she retracted her earlier statement! This is far more outrageous than what happened in high school; is this what university is like?!

What an adorable girl!

Is she this guy's girlfriend?!

Nojima Gen and Yamamoto Shinichiro couldn't help but show murderous intent in their eyes at the same time, and they also couldn't help but glance at the photo booth picture on the notice.

Wait a minute! If this girl is his girlfriend, then what about the other girls...?

No, he just said that the Aid and Service Department doesn't have any single men or women. In other words—is this a wicked, chaotic, and popular club with promiscuous relationships?!

Flames! Flames of envy, jealousy, and hatred are burning!

Nojima Gen pushed up his glasses: How about we find a dark alley on the way home from school?

Shinichiro Yamamoto lowered his eyebrows: Good idea, we can call in more people!

Nojima Gen sneered: "If you and I, brothers, join forces, we will surely be able to cut down this evil popular guy!"

Shinichiro Yamamoto's eyes gleamed: Brother, this plan is brilliant!

Bai Ying glanced at them and said leisurely, "Although your intentions aren't pure and you're not good at doing anything truly helpful, being peripheral members is still fine. Our Aid and Service Department is an inter-school club with members all over the world. Each member has their own network of connections, and as everyone knows, it's often easier to find other girls through girls. If you perform well, we might even include you in club social events..."

"Godfather, please accept my bow!" ×2!

Angelina: "..."

Is this the mental state of male college students? Suddenly I feel so pessimistic about the future of humanity.

Chapter 144 Romance is Dead

[Yukino Yukinoshita: @Angelina, please update soon!]

[Angelina: Huh? An update? What am I updating?]

[Yukino Yukinoshita: Indulgent by nature, Shiroi tries to take advantage of the sisters, angrily strips off her clothes, and Ange drains her boyfriend of his affections.]

Angelina: ?

[Angelina: Oh my god! Don't you have any shame?! Who's as shameless as you?!]

[Yukinoshita: So? Did that jerk bother the Kotegawa sisters you mentioned today?]

[Angelina: No, today was mainly about setting up clubs and recruiting. I don't know why, but he seemed to be treating the diving club as a rival.]

[Yukinoshita: Hmm? Could it be that Chisa Kotegawa is in the diving club?]

[Angelina: It seems so?]

[Yukino Yukinoshita: They're locked in a fierce battle, and once they start, they can't stay apart. This might just be a repeat of Yukino-chan's story~]

[Angelina: @Yukino Yukinoshita.]

[Yukino Yukinoshita: Please don't discuss such trivial topics so late at night.]

[Yukino Yukinoshita: How is this topic boring? It's of great importance!]

[Yukino Yukinoshita: Is that so? I know my sister envies me and regrets not meeting Haku-kun in high school, and not being able to experience some special things as classmates. Because of her twisted personality, she always likes to tease me by mentioning Haku-kun. She's dissatisfied with her youth and likes to find all her desires in me. I shouldn't be so petty and generously allow you to be envious.]

[Yukinoshita: Yukino-chan, I want to give you a warm welcome on the first day of school.]

[Yukino Yukinoshita: Ah.]
