Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

'Am I being too narcissistic to actually speak out and try things out because I think others like me. ’

'And he was ordered to be expelled directly by the other party. ’

'A smart person like Senpai must have guessed what I was thinking at the time, so he told me to leave in this euphemistic way. ’

Thinking like this, a sense of shame continued to rise from his heart, and even Kato Yusuke couldn't help but feel a heat on his face.

It stayed on his mind until after school.

Even so, he did feel much more relaxed.

At least this way, the partnership between the two should last a long time, and Yusuke Kato won't have to be forced to lose his job.

From the results alone, it can be regarded as gratifying.

After finishing packing, he walked directly towards Hui's seat.

As the last day before the election, the two still need to make final confirmations on many things.

...

Come to the old audio-visual classroom in the activity building together.

"Well, about tomorrow's speech, I'll sort it out for now, but I'll let Kato-kun read it himself."

The girl who said that took out a stack of A4 paper from her schoolbag and handed it to Yusuke Kato.

"Thank you for your hard work."

So Yusuke looked down and Megumi approached very naturally.

"First of all, the main part of the political opinion, as Kato-kun planned before... Ah, although this idea is actually from Kasumigaoka-senpai's suggestion."

The girl opened her mouth and said, "Through the "alignment of interests", it is the declaration of the first-year air-conditioning installation, and the commitment to the redistribution of funds for cultural clubs..."

"Well... it looks like this, you really made a lot of promises. It should be said that the school system is almost going to be changed, basically."

This way of speaking mixed with subtle complaints made Kato Yusuke look up at the other party involuntarily.

For some reason, he always felt that Megumi seemed slightly different today than usual.

It's an indescribable feeling,

But it was in his mind.

The girl, on the other hand, continued her speech unmoved.

"And there's another thing, to 'convince the speaker', which is how the teachers react to these things. "

Kato Yusuke nodded in agreement, which was something the two had discussed before.

Even if the student council vote is limited to students, that doesn't mean it's okay to ignore the teachers' ideas.

Otherwise, whether it's for spoof or funny reasons, if a candidate like "Being the student council president is a woman who wants to dominate this school" comes to power, it will definitely cause problems in various ways.

In other words, while attracting students, it must also be accepted by teachers who have high authority over decision-making within the school.

If it is rejected by them, it will become meaningless even if it gets a vote.

"Teacher... What?" Kato Yusuke murmured, tapping his fingers on the table unconsciously.

Different faces began to emerge in my mind.

Katsuya Nakamura, Kanako Hasumi, Teacher Hirakawa, Teacher Ryuzaki, Teacher Takeuchi, Teacher Yasuoka...

Before he knew it, so many people had gathered around him.

Of course, apart from the first two who took the initiative to help him, the teachers of other sports clubs also had a certain interest relationship with Yusuke, at least they would not hinder him.

"If you think about it this way, I seem to have an advantage in this area...?" Kato Yusuke said somewhat uncertainly.

"..."

Megumi looked up at him, "You seem to be complacent, Kato-kun."

The calm words were mixed with a little bit of complaining.

And this is definitely not Kato Yusuke's illusion, so he finally couldn't help but ask: "Can I ask you one thing if possible? Kato-san."

"……what?"

Megumi sat up straight, "I'm not nervous. I haven't become abnormal."

"..."

"Ah, "Why do you know what I want to ask?" is probably because of your expression, Kato-kun. "

"..."

Looking at those clear eyes that seemed to be able to read people's hearts, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but become even more speechless.

"call……"

He let out a breath slowly: "Today's Kato-san really doesn't look like Kato-san..."

"Yeah, that's what you think."

The girl muttered in a low voice: "...I'll be conscious of this for now."

The expression on that moment looked very cute.

Even though the timing was not right, Yusuke Kato couldn't help but laugh.

"You're too much like that..."

"Ah, sorry, sorry, it's just the first time I've seen you look like this..."

"My expression like this...?"

"Well, what should I say..."

Kato Yusuke, who couldn't help laughing, blurted out subconsciously: "Like an ordinary girl, very cute."

The audio-visual classroom was silent for a moment.

And Yusuke, who realized what he said, was also slightly startled, but fortunately, Megumi quickly picked up the words.

"...Ah, um, that, although it's a little hard to tell how you've been looking at me all this time."

The girl looked at him with a trace of resentment: "Although it's not easy for me to be kept in my heart, I think I'm still a girl, ordinary."

The slightly aggravated ending of the sentence made Kato Yusuke smile, and the timely spit also resolved the embarrassment in his heart.

Kato Yusuke smiled and shook his head: "It's not like that. In fact, Kato-kun is quite good. Maybe I didn't make it clear, but what I said just now is a compliment."

After a pause, he continued: "But... are you nervous about the thing you are going to give a speech tomorrow?"

The girl let out a sigh of relief: "... After all, I'm giving a speech in front of so many people. I can't be as calm as Kato-san."

"If you're nervous, think of the people in the audience as immobile puppets."

"Um...you realize that it's a little scary, right? Kato-kun."

"Then, what about cabbage?"

"..."

"Otherwise, don't make eye contact with people, which can also reduce tension."

"Even if you say that...it doesn't seem to be easy to do, and what should we do with everyone's eyes?"

The tone of voice could not tell whether it was calm or depressed, a look that was not very energetic.

Seeing this, Kato Yusuke thought about it and said, "Or you can find a way to concentrate yourself, such as thinking about something interesting."

"Oh~ yes, that's it." The girl responded in a good tone: "Anyway, thank you for your suggestion. I will consider it later, and I will go home today."

After speaking, he packed up his things, got up from his seat, and walked towards the door.

"Goodbye then, Kato-kun."

Looking at the slender back that left, Kato Yusuke suddenly said, "Kato-san."

The girl turned around and looked back.

The eyes of the two met in the air.

There was silence for about three seconds.

Yusuke took a deep breath and said, "If you're nervous, just look at me when you speak tomorrow."

The tranquil lake is rippling with waves.
