Chapter 35: The war spreads, the tragedy of Watanabe's youth
How difficult is life?
The News Department’s report came out the next day and was posted on the bulletin board on the first floor of the school.
If Toru Watanabe remembers correctly, this was an interview about the midterm exam, but the content above had nothing to do with the exam.
First of all, there is the title that is impossible to ignore.
"'A trio of super high school-level looks'?"
“It’s really beautiful !”
"Are there such good-looking students in our school? Why are they all first-year students?!"
In the photo that took up most of the report, Watanabe Toru stood in the middle with a smile on his face. On his left and right were Kiyono Rin and Kujo Miki with their arms folded.
The two beautiful girls seemed to be looking at him, and also seemed to be looking at each other.
In fact, neither is true. The photos were taken secretly and processed. The Human Observation Department is the only place where the three people appear at the same time.
This feeling of déjà vu like the cover of a light novel - the two heroines fighting for the hero, made Watanabe Toru very uneasy. After reading the report, he even wanted to kill the people in the News Department and the Literature and Art Department.
{This is a story about three people whose looks are at the top of the human race!}
{…No one has ever successfully joined the Human Observation Department. Watanabe Toru’s interview declaration is: I like you guys, I like you guys very much. Both of you should date me. I will definitely make you happy!}
{… Watanabe Toru was scolded, but he was not discouraged: Not everyone can do it! Kiyono-san and Kujo-san, you are beautiful, smart, hardworking, low-key, and kind. You are simply the representatives of Tokyo beauties. You are my goal, my beacon of progress, and my ideal in life.
{…Facing the two shy people, Watanabe Toru continued his perverted declaration : I have no interest in other human women except Kiyono-san and Kujo-san! You are all my wings!}
{… “Then let’s use grades to decide everything! Whoever gets first place in the grade will be in charge of the Human Observation Department!” Kujo suggested.}
{…Kiyono Rin confidently agreed.}
{…Toru Watanabe, who had evil intentions and successfully joined the club, also secretly set his sights on being number one!}
{Is his future a harem? Or defeat?}
{Who will have the final say on the future of the Human Observation Department?}
{Everyone, the war is coming!}
{Material: News Department, Writing: Literature Department}
"Does our school still have a human observation department?"
"Don't you know? It was founded by the eldest daughter of the Seino family . It is said that the conditions for joining the company are very strict."
"Have you been there?"
"No! No way! I heard it from others!"
"First graders are so promiscuous, they actually use academic performance to decide their bodies."
"Hey, what do you think? If we win first place, can we also have Kiyono Rin and Kujo Miki as our girlfriends?"
“…”
"Maybe?"
"affim!"
"The eldest daughter of the Kiyono and Kujo families, you won't go back on your word, will you?"
…
"Literature and Art Department!" Watanabe Toru gritted his teeth.
"This is incredible, Watanabe," Kunii Osamu said, looking forward to the fun, "This is the development of the male protagonist of a light novel!"
Saito Keisuke also laughed and said, "Kunii and I are the friends next to the male protagonist who are responsible for making jokes and providing information?"
Toru Watanabe ignored the two people who were trying to take advantage of his misfortune and carefully studied the glass on the bulletin board that was protecting him from the rain.
Locked!
I don’t know if I can destroy school property just by getting scolded because I’m ranked third in academic performance.
"Watanabe? You're the Toru Watanabe from the news, right?"
"I am not."
"There can't be another boy as handsome as you! You must be Toru Watanabe!"
Watanabe Toru was unable to refute this line of reasoning. He indeed had not seen any boy as handsome as him - at least in Kamikawa High School and Shinjuku Ward.
"Watanabe-kun, is the bet that everything depends on academic performance true?"
"No, it's fake..."
"It's true."
"Oh——" Hearing this cool and pleasant voice, the students gathered in front of the bulletin board made a loud noise.
Toru Watanabe looked at Kiyono Rin who was walking towards him carrying a schoolbag like a saint.
"What are you doing! This is the revenge of the Art and Literature Department," he said.
"Do you want me to lie?" Qing Ye Lin lifted her long hair and turned her eyes to everyone: "As long as the person who ranks first in the grade in this midterm exam, the Human Observation Department will agree to any conditions for him."
Watanabe Toru hurried over and grabbed her sleeve: "'Any conditions' won't work!"
"This is the minister's order." Qing Ye Lin looked at Watanabe Toru's hand holding her sleeve and said with a smile, "Watanabe-san, you are not afraid, are you?"
Let’s quit the club… Watanabe Toru thought.
Since I don’t have to work now anyway, there’s nothing wrong with staying in school every day and participating in club activities.
Just as Watanabe Toru was about to speak, Kujo Miki came over. Her aura was as majestic as a queen, and everyone subconsciously quieted down - except Kiyono Rin, but she didn't want to talk to Kujo Miki.
While looking at the notice board, Kujo Miki asked Watanabe Toru, "What's going on?"
Watanabe Toru repeated the unscrupulous media news department, the revenge literature department, and what Kiyono Rin had just said.
"It's very interesting." Kujo Miki showed a venomous smile, "I agree too."
There's no hope, there's no hope for these two women.
"Kiyono-san, when I joined the club, you said I could quit at any time, right?" Watanabe Toru asked for confirmation.
Qingye Rin said: "Ah, are you really scared?"
"What? Watanabe, you want to quit?" Kujo Miki turned her head and asked.
"yes."
Kujo Miki stared at him coldly: "I won't allow it."
"Whether to allow or not is my right as the captain, Kujo-san." Kiyono Rin warned in a calm tone.
"The position of minister will be mine sooner or later, so there's no need for you to be too attached to it," Miki Kujo replied bluntly.
"I admire your cockiness."
"I also admire your blind optimism."
The posture of the two people at this time, no, with Watanabe Toru sandwiched in the middle, is simply the real-life version of the photo in the report.
The two glared at each other, unable to do anything about the other, so they looked at Watanabe Toru at the same time.
"Watanabe-san," Kiyono Rin said mockingly, "Don't Tokyo handsome guys have to have the confidence to accomplish anything?"
"I don't allow you to resign, do you hear me?" Kujo Miki ordered.
"What is life, anyway?" Toru Watanabe wanted to ask God this question.
"I understand, I understand, I agree, any conditions are acceptable."
Kiyono Rin smiled with satisfaction, Kujo Miki smiled 'just as I expected', and Watanabe Toru also forced a smile.
Just as the Literature and Art Department said, the looks of these three people are at the pinnacle of humanity. When all three of them smiled at the same time, the others were mesmerized as if they were under a spell.
"Anything is fine, even dating is fine?"
"Okay." said Qingye Rin.
"Is it okay to marry into the wife's family?"
"Of course." Kujo Miki answered with the same smile she had when she ordered the killing of Watanabe Toru several times.
"Watanabe-kun, if you get first place, can you smile only at me, Miyuki, from now on?"
"……no problem."
