Chapter 724

So I want to tidy up the pool.

But this is just a face-saving project.

Most students think so. After participating in voluntary labor, they can get certificates, which will be very helpful for future credits and the like.

So with this in mind, the participating students could obviously bring some carpentry tools to repair the guardrail of the swamp, but they didn't have any.

I just asked everyone to bring something that looked like a long bamboo pole that could be used for fishing with a net on the top to catch garbage.

As a newcomer, Ichinose-san also participated.

She is already an appointed member of the student union. As a representative of the student union, she cannot be absent.

It's just that this pool is really bad.

The pool was glowing with layers of green, and it was unclear how long it had been since it had been cleaned.

You can see around a dozen boys and girls using the big colanders used to clean lakes to get dirt out of the lake.

The lunch break is not very long, so I have to hurry up.

Ichinose brought a bamboo pole, but her attention was half on the pool and half on the other two people.

They are Shinomiya Kaguya.

Then, the other one is Oreki-san.

Oreki-san was looking at Shinomiya Kaguya in a daze. This is thinking.

What rhetoric will be used later to make it easier to deceive the other party?

Yes.

Although Shinomiya Kaguya is cool and cold.

But Junior Oreki was thinking about how to deceive the other party.

He is an energy-saving person who saves effort and never wastes it.

so.

Oreki-san is holding a bamboo pole and scooping up garbage just like the other students.

Then he spoke softly, "Senomiya-senpai, what do you think. What will happen if someone falls now?"

fall down.

Fall into such a dirty pool?

"...?..."

Kaguya didn't respond immediately.

She felt that Oreki-san was not asking about such a hypothesis, nor was he asking about other things, but just asking.

If someone falls, who will save him?

It's not a matter of whether we will save him or not.

Because there is no doubt about this, she feels that Oreki-senpai, who has the experience of protecting Otomo Kyoko, should be like her and would not let others drown like this.

"So, Oreki-senpai, if someone falls into the water, will you go down and save her?"

Kaguya asked rhetorically.

She felt that the current atmosphere brought by Oreki's junior classmate was not right.

Junior Oreki smiled and said, "What do you think?"

"I'm a landlubber."

Um.

There is this answer.

Do you want to save a drowning person because you can't swim? Are you desperate for your life?

"That's an acceptable answer," Kaguya said, "Because you can't swim, you're excluded."

"However, people are like this. Waiting for others to bear the burden for you. You never want to soil yourself."

"So, I probably won't go and save him."

"After all, I am a member of the Shinomiya family and have a high status. I cannot take risks so easily."

"It's very common for people to be dragged down instead of trying to save them."

Kaguya explained.

Seems very rational.

But Oreki-senpai shook his head slightly as he listened. "I don't think it's right."

"This is not what you mean. If something like this really happens, you will go down."

Oreki-san said, "Because your thinking is very similar to mine, my idea is to go out and save people. Then the same goes for you. So, Shinomiya-senpai, do you want to take a gamble?"

"If you choose to save people, you lose."

"Then...you drive Chika Fujiwara down, and you become the student council president."

"..."

? ? ? ?

Grass!

Fujiwara Chika was originally by Oreki's side. When she heard what he said, she almost wanted to poke the bamboo pole in her hand towards Oreki's junior classmate and stab him into the blood swamp.

Because what nonsense is this guy talking about!

At first, she and Kaguya-san speculated that this guy's abnormal behavior was because he wanted to be the next student council president.

result.

Now, do you want Kaguya to be the student council president?

Although.

Chika also feels that Kaguya is very capable and must be the most suitable person to be the student council president. However, being the student council president is so tiring.

Chika doesn’t want to drag down Kaguya-san.

"..." Shinomiya Kaguya. "Don't you want to become a student senior yourself?"

"I do have this idea." Junior Oreki said. "But that was my initial thought, because later I discovered that becoming the student president requires a lot of procedures and the preparations are very troublesome, so I decided to give up this opportunity."

"Let Shinomiya-senpai become the student council president." Oreki-senpai said.

"..." Kaguya. "Completely confused."

Because she couldn't find any advantage to Oreki-senpai after becoming the student council president.

Can't understand the other person's thoughts.

Of course she couldn't understand that Oreki was just doing a mission.

"I've already spoken out about the bet." Junior Oreki continued. "And Senior Sister Shinomiya doesn't dare to challenge?"

"..." Kaguya.

Shinomiya Kaguya stared at Oreki Houtarou with stern eyes, but she found that Oreki's junior did not flinch at all.

For her, Shinomiya Kaguya and the Shinomiya family... it is necessary to maintain the honor of their family.

Think about it a little.

Shinomiya Kaguya supported the elbow of her right hand with her left hand. He looked at Oreki-san with a scrutinizing gaze and said, "Okay, then let's make a bet."

"The Shinomiya family members cannot retreat."

"But Oreki-senpai, how do you continue this bet?"

"If I choose to save people, even if I lose, but no one wants me to save them, let's talk about you, Oreki-senpai..."

Kaguya paused.

"You are still too young." But Junior Oreki smiled softly. "It's easy, I just jump down."

hehe.

Kaguya did not continue to respond to Oreki-san.

She still couldn't believe that Oreki-san was going to jump into the pool like this.

Even if Oreki-san knows how to swim, there is a 1% chance of drowning if he jumps suddenly.

There is no need to put yourself in such a crisis.

"..." And Ichinose was paying attention to these two people.

She found that she was like a bastard. Even though Oreki-san was right in front of her, she hadn't spoken a word to her since class.

So why do you start by being friends?

only.

Her mind was also attracted to the two of them.

because.

She also thought about what she could do.

If someone is drowning.

Then she will probably save people.

but.

Just like Shinomiya-san said, Shinomiya is very important, and she herself as a member of the Ichinose family is also very important.

So she didn't dare think about what she would do if something happened to her when she went to save someone.

She also became hesitant.

at this time.

"The bat's body is floating, it's so disgusting -"

"Ah...wait a minute, don't push me-"

bump!

"Someone fell into the water!"

When Ichinose was thinking, it was really... someone had already fallen into the water, Zero.

Her companion tried to pass the bamboo pole.

"Can I catch this one?"

"No, no...my body is hooked - cough cough -"

Although the voice of the girl who fell into the water was loud, her body was really sinking.

Students at Chihide Academy require comprehensive development in all aspects, so there are very few landlubbers, and it can even be said to be almost non-existent.

"You should jump down and save her."

“But with this swamp like this, I don’t know if I will get sick——”

The students on the shore did not take immediate action.

All that showed was panic.

Chapter 347 Kaguya: Abdicate, Qianhua!

The students on the shore made no attempt to dive to save others.

This is what it is.

If the person jumps in and is not handled properly, the consequences will not be that the water is dirty and the person will get sick. In serious cases, the consequences will be that the two people die together or the person dies after saving someone else.

but.

This is just an excuse for those who hesitate.
