"Is that the former student council president?"

"Senior Yan is quite famous, right..."

"Wow, he’s so handsome..."

"Is he running again this year?"

"..."

The sun was setting in the west, and the first-year students, who had just experienced their first day of school, were full of anticipation for their future campus life.

Soaking in the elite environment of Linmen, making new friends, experiencing the unexperienced society, while welcoming joys and worries...

"It’s only been a year, and I miss it already, President..."

In the corridor, crouching beside a cardboard box, Yahashiki was applying glue to the back of a piece of paper as he spoke.

Having said that, he stood up and handed the paper to Yan Huan.

Yan Huan flipped the paper over, revealing a notice issued by the school:

"Student Council Election Notice"

"The Student Council, as an organization representing the superior student-managed system of Yuanyue Academy, has a history as old as Yuanyue Academy itself, now in its forty-seventh term..."

Looking at the notice in his hand, Yan Huan shook his head with a smile and pressed it onto the bulletin board in front of him,

"Yeah...when I saw this notice, I never thought that the former student council president would have to post it himself. It’s really a slap in the face..."

"Well, this kind of thing isn’t important, right..."

Saying this, Yahashiki picked up another notice, part of the new set for student council election recruitment, planning to post it together with Yan Huan.

"Why are inner students and outer students assigned to the same class...I wanted to be in the same class as Qian Yin..."

"Ah, I heard the last president was also an outer student."

"Really..."

In the gradually emptying classroom, a few new inner students who had known each other before continued to walk past, not recognizing Yan Huan and Yahashiki, who continued to post the notices undeterred.

"Phew, only one more to go..."

"Okay."

Yan Huan picked up the nearly empty box of notices and walked towards the other end of the corridor.

But just then, Yahashiki, following behind him, suddenly asked,

"President, are you going to sign up this year?"

"..."

Yan Huan glanced at Yahashiki, only to see him laugh,

"Even though that Yuanlina girl always talks nonsense, she genuinely hopes you’ll run again, President... Vice President Sakuragi too, she just hasn’t figured out how to persuade you. As for Ashley, she’s pretty skilled at her Discipline Committee duties..."

"What about you?"

"Me..."

Yahashiki paused slightly, a bit embarrassed,

"I...also hope you can continue to run."

Upon hearing this, Yan Huan smiled and nodded,

"Alright..."

The two of them continued walking forward, one after the other.

The conversation that suddenly started suddenly ended without any follow-up...

What a strange conversation.

But Yan Huan was actually considering this.

To be honest, the issue with the modifier was almost completely resolved by now.

The only thing still bothering Yan Huan was the Crab Currency issue.

Though he was eager, it could slowly be accumulated.

Ten coins a month, only three months in total.

He was only in the second year, still with plenty of time.

So, there should be plenty of time afterward...

"Pop!"

Yan Huan finished posting the notice and then took a stack of application forms from the box.

"Yahashi, take these 29 forms back to the student council office, and let them pick them up later. The registration deadline is mid-month, and we’ll tally the numbers then..."

"Twenty-nine, not thirty..."

As he spoke, Yahashiki suddenly paused.

Then, he pushed his glasses and took the stack of documents with a smile,

"Alright, President!"

"..."

Watching Yahashiki leave, Yan Huan picked up his backpack from the wall, opened a zipper, and tucked the "nomination form" inside.

Just at that moment, a virtual little kitten yawned and climbed onto his shoulder,

"Meow...Sakuragi Hitomi should be very happy! As long as you don’t plan to bring other hosts into the student council..."

"Do you think I’m that stupid?"

"True, meow...but Yan Huan, I still need to remind you, the modifier issue is only completely resolved if they all give it up together, meow! It’s best to do it soon! You haven’t explained Bai Yi’s situation to the other hosts yet, meow!"

"Okay, I’ll find a chance."

Yan Huan stroked the kitten’s head as he responded.

Letting go of the modifier doesn’t require any special ritual; the challenge is that the timing has to be synchronized to the second.

That means gathering all the hosts together is the safest option.

But this matter...

Apart from Bai Yi, Yan Huan was actually more worried about someone else.

[Crab Currency Task One: Make others’ favorability towards Ye Shiyu reach over 50%—Incomplete]

Hmph...

Just thinking about the fiery relationship between Ye Shiyu and the other hosts gave Yan Huan a headache.

Coincidentally, the Crab Currency task needed this requirement too, so he might as well think about how to handle it later on.

Speaking of...

Ye Shiyu is running for student council president too?

Involuntarily, Yan Huan imagined her running for student council in his mind...

"I want to be student council president, vote for me, hurry up..."

On the conference podium, Ye Shiyu stated expressionlessly.

"..."

The audience below looked bewildered, then raised their little red crosses representing "no vote".

Seeing this, Ye Shiyu showed no joy or sorrow, silently raising her phone.

"Buzz..."

The next second, everyone below raised their little green cards representing "vote".

"Congratulations, Ye Shiyu from Class 3-A has been elected as the 48th student council president!! Everyone, applaud!"
