After school in the afternoon.

After finishing her whole day of classes, Hoshino Aihime walked towards the student union office as usual.

Normally, the student union office here is only used by her and the vice president, so the entire office is not too large.

Except for the two desks placed at 90 degrees by the window and the bookcase respectively, the rest is the sofa area that takes up nearly half of the room, giving the entire room a sense of being fully utilized.

When Hoshino Aihime opened the door and walked into the office, the vice president named Ogura Rina had arrived early and was sitting at her desk dealing with the affairs accumulated throughout the day.

"Good afternoon, President."

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Rina Ogura, who had a black braid, raised her head habitually and greeted Hoshino Aihime who had just walked in.

"Good afternoon, Vice President Ogura."

Hoshino Aihime responded loudly, and then went straight to the table next to the window.

"Is there anything important happening at school these two days?"

Sitting on her desk, Hoshino Aihime looked up at the vice president sitting across from her and asked before flipping through the documents piled on the table.

"There's nothing too important yet."

Upon hearing Hoshino Aiki's inquiry, Ogura Rina, who had just buried her head in a pile of paper documents, raised her head again and said.

"Previously, in order to complete the exchange study with Akiba High School, the entire student union seemed very busy, but now the preparations for this matter have basically come to an end, and we should be able to take a little rest during this time."

Speaking of this, Rina Ogura showed a look of relief.

"Then let's all relax during this period. Once September is over, there will be many things and activities that need to be organized and handled."

Hoshino Aihime nodded and said.

"Well, that's what I thought too."

Rina Ogura smiled in agreement.

The chat before work basically ends here.

Just when Hoshino Aihime was about to look through the documents at hand, Ogura Rina next to her suddenly inserted another sentence.

"Speaking of which, when I first came here in the afternoon, the class monitor of Grade 11 came over here and submitted an application."

As if she suddenly remembered this matter, Ogura Rina said slowly, and as she spoke, she took out a handwritten application form from the documents at hand.

"What application?"

Hoshino Aihime asked curiously, and at the same time took the application form from the other party.

"It's the tutoring activity we proposed before, but it seems that not everyone is willing to participate." Rina Ogura said with a hint of helplessness.

"So the monitor of Class 1 handed over this thing."

"Is this the only one? Is there anyone else who doesn't want to participate?"

Hoshino Aihime asked as she fully unfolded the folded application form to make it easier to browse the content written on it.

But after seeing the applicant's name, the girl's eyebrows raised unconsciously.

"That's the only one for now. Others don't seem to object to this form of extracurricular tutoring."

Ogura Rina followed Hoshino Aihime's question and answered, seemingly not noticing the subtle change in the other person's expression.

But after saying this, Ogura Rina did not get a response from Hoshino Aihime.

"President?"

After a few seconds, seeing that the other party was still focusing on the application form, the girl couldn't help but remind her.

Only then did Hoshino Aihime put down the application form that had been in her hand for a long time.

After pondering for a while, the girl calmly said:

"Tell them when you get there that this application has been rejected and ask them to attend the after-school tutoring starting tomorrow afternoon on time."

"Oh, alright."

"Then what should I say if they ask?"

Ogura Rina asked subconsciously, but received a strange look from Hoshino Aihime in response.

Under the gaze of Hoshino Aihime, Ogura Rina immediately paused for a second or two, and then added in an awkward tone.

"Because I heard that the results of these two people were quite good before they came here, so..."

"If they ask for the reason, they will say that this counseling activity was decided after discussing with the school. The purpose is to enable these people to adapt to the learning environment of this school more quickly. Everyone should be able to

Want to participate.”

"Of course, if they really don't want to participate, they need to make a decision based on the specific results of the first counseling session, so they are asked to participate as much as possible tomorrow afternoon."

"Okay, I'll tell them this."

After hearing Hoshino Aiki's answer, Ogura Reina finally put away her tangled expression.

"However, I just took a look at the previous results of the two of them, and they are indeed quite excellent. The tutoring candidates currently assigned to them are indeed not suitable."

Just when Ogura Rina thought that the matter was discussed, Hoshino Aihime put her hand to her mouth, coughed and added.

After saying these words, Hoshino Aihime immediately focused her attention on Ogura Rina again.

"Okura-san, can I trouble you to take charge of Ibuki-san's tutoring?"

"Ah, me?"

"There's nothing wrong with me here."

Faced with Hoshino Aihime's sudden question, Ogura Rina was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said.

"What about the other classmate?"

"Just leave him in charge of me. I will help him with his studies for the next month."

Hoshino Aihime responded calmly.

"Is this okay?"

Rina Ogura asked in shock.

"Any questions?"

"No no."

The girl quickly shook her head.

"In this case, I will revise the list of tutoring activities later and fill in the contact information of myself and the president."

After confirming that she heard correctly, Rina Ogura had no choice but to temporarily suppress the surprise and confusion in her heart and elaborated on what she was going to do next.

Although she and Hoshino Aiki have been staying together in this office for almost half a year, the two have only maintained a working relationship and have not had much private communication except for school work.

Therefore, although Ogura Rina was a little confused about the decision Hoshino Aihime made, she was too embarrassed to ask the reasons in detail.

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Hoshino Aiji nodded slightly.

"By the way, there is one more thing."

Ogura Rina's attention was drawn again.

"The key to the rooftop will be handed over to me for safekeeping from now on."

"key?"

"I heard that a few people seem to be running there from time to time recently. For safety reasons, I want to keep this key personally so that I can feel more at ease."

Sensing Ogura and Rina's confused gaze, Hoshino Aihime could only try to explain.

"I see."

Rina Ogura suddenly said.
