41 His Methods Are Really Ruthless

Kitagawa Tera took the lead and sat down first. Chinatsu Chiyuki immediately followed suit, while Asamiya Hitomi found a random excuse to sit beside the flower bed not far from them.

Kitagawa Tera did not say anything about Chinatsu Chiyuki's actions. He only sat there quietly, looking at her, waiting for her to speak first.

Kitagawa Tera's inaction and indifference made it difficult for Chinatsu Chiyuki to speak.

Moreover, Chinatsu Chiyuki was not here to condemn him. She could only bear Kitagawa Tera's excessively burning eyes, gulped, and braced herself. "First and foremost, Kitagawa-san, you should know my identity, right?"

Kitagawa Tera nodded nonchalantly. "As a student of Kyokuboku, I've naturally heard of President Chinatsu."

Asamiya Hitomi, who was sitting behind Kitagawa Tera, moved her mouth… Kitagawa Tera clearly asked me who Chinatsu Chiyuki was.

Hearing this, Chinatsu Chiyuki was slightly relieved. "Since Kitagawa-san knows who I am, you will naturally understand what I'm about to do."

She stood up decisively and bowed deeply to Kitagawa Tera, who was still sitting on the long bench. "Kitagawa-san, I apologize to you on behalf of the student council for the possible insults and grief you may have experienced for our inaction."

I probably won't be beaten up if I say this? This weird thought flashed through Chinatsu Chiyuki's heart.

But she had to take responsibility for something the student council had done wrong.

That's right! She was the president of the Kyokuboku student council! As the president of the student council, she had to be a good role model!

Thinking this way, her heart lightened.

However, what Chinatsu Chiyuki did not expect was for Kitagawa Tera to raise his eyebrows and ask in a confused tone, "What are you talking about?"

Eh?!

Chinatsu Chiyuki was stupefied.

She exchanged awkward glances with Kitagawa Tera.

She was fumbling with her determination and her fears, yet Kitagawa Tera did not know what was going on?

The already low-spirited Chinatsu Chiyuki naturally shrank again. Still baffled, she murmured, "The incident of the underwear thief… The student council received a report, but we did not take any action because of internal reasons, which might have led to some deviations to the truth… I'm here to apologize to you."

Kitagawa Tera's expression was weirder after listening to her.

Chinatsu Chiyuki could clearly perceive that his gaze held pity in them, suggesting that he was thinking 'there's something wrong with this president's brain'.

"You looked for me just because of this?" Kitagawa Tera knitted his brows. He originally thought that something grave had happened for the president to look for him, but he had not thought it would be because of such an old topic.

Perhaps the original might have held a grudge against the student council, but the current Kitagawa Tera could not even be bothered.

This female student council president before him was too serious. She even had a face full of fear that she would be beaten by him…

Kitagawa Tera could not help but shake his head and reply calmly, "First of all, the underwear thief incident is over. Perhaps there might still be subsequent impacts continuing now, but I don't care at all. After all, it was too cowardly of me to not have the courage to speak up at that time.

"Bad consequences are caused by the lack of ability of the person himself. The people around me might have some responsibilities, but the main problem is still me."

"Besides, Hoshino is already…" Kitagawa Tera stopped himself suddenly.

"Hoshino is already…?" Chinatsu Chiyuki stopped as she followed Kitagawa Tera's train of thoughts. She looked up with confusion.

"As far as I know, this Hoshino should be the Hoshino Nana-san that has a conflict with Kitagawa-san? She has been on sick leave for two days in a row. Does Kitagawa-san know something we don't?"

These girls have sharp intuitions. Kitagawa Tera sighed inwardly but continued appearing cold on the surface, "It's better if you don't know it for the time being. The school will probably announce it soon."

Arano Ryoko had already notified the Hoshino family about her death. Everyone in school would know about it soon enough.

Kitagawa Tera did not know if Shosuke-senpai from the basketball club would break down in tears or not… But if this was the price to pay for school bullying… It was simply too heavy.

However, Kitagawa Tera did not mourn for her.

Hoshino Nana accounted for at least half of the misery of the original. He did not have the tears to shed for such a school bully.

From the beginning, they were on two parallel pathways, and it remained that way until Hoshino Nana's death.

"I understand. I won't probe any further then."

Kitagawa Tera obviously did not want to continue talking about Hoshino Nana, and Chinatsu Chiyuki naturally did not ask anymore.

She gave a small cough and continued, "Actually, apart from the apology, there's another matter I'd like to talk to Kitagawa-kun about."

"What?"

"I would like to invite Kitagawa-san to join the student council. What do you think?" Chinatsu Chiyuki's majesty as the student council president finally shone through. Her tone was plain, but she had an indescribable aura. "The student council has just been established, and we urgently need fresh blood. Someone like Kitagawa-san meets our requirements."

Join the student council?

"I don't have any thoughts of joining the student council for the time being." Kitagawa Tera shook his head in rejection.

He did not have the luxury of time to serve the student populace. Compared to that, he would rather use the time to take care of a few more wraiths.

After all, exterminating more wraiths would bring him substantial benefits and could even make his paranormal homepage even more popular. He could even start charging for it once it reached a certain extent.

What was there not to be happy about if he could earn money and strengthen his body at the same time?

"Is that so…" Chinatsu Chiyuki did not pester him like the female leads in some novels. She had already been prepared for his rejection anyway, but she could not fight the small disappointment in her heart.

"I'm still curious about why President Chinatsu would ask me to join the student council? I thought that I'm still not cleared of the suspicion of being an underwear thief." Kitagawa Tera asked.

Yes, he still has the title of underwear thief to his name. Wouldn't that tarnish the reputation of the student council?

Facing Kitagawa Tera's question, Chinatsu Chiyuki's mouth curled upward subconsciously.

Confidence, calmness.

"Just like what Kitagawa-san said about yourself, I'm more inclined to believe the facts I see for myself." Chinatsu Chiyuki switched on her phone.

On it was the video of Kitagawa Tera standing straight and tall, sending out the order not to bully other students.

Asamiya Hitomi could not see it because of the angle. Otherwise, if she saw how scared the troublemakers were, she would probably become afraid of Kitagawa Tera again.

Watching the video, Chinatsu Chiyuki could not help sighing again…

Kitagawa Tera's methods are really ruthless.
