Chapter 301: 157. School Trip (6)
Spending Sunday in Sophia University’s library welcomed a slightly chilly Monday morning.
Going to school or work, Monday seems unwelcome everywhere, but today was an exception.
On their way to school, students at Goda High School, dressed in their winter uniforms, were all smiles—the boys jostling each other playfully; the girls clustered together, occasionally letting out crisp and delightful laughter.
Even the morning sparrows were singing.
But as Tagore once said, "The right hand of God is loving, but his left hand is fearsome." So, whether it’s people or things, there are both negative and positive aspects.
Dubian Che was an absolute pessimist in this school trip frenzy.
To say why he’s pessimistic... it’s because things are simply too bothersome, almost too numerous to count.
First, there’s the number one task: getting votes from the girls in class.
Even though he didn’t want to go to the Capital City, he still had to ask people he wasn’t familiar with to change their minds and vote for the Capital City—gentlemen, just this single matter alone should show you how negative Dubian Che can be, right?
Arriving in class before the morning meeting started, Dubian Che found most students had come early, and nearly all the girls were there, chatting in groups.
Dubian Che sat at his own seat, hesitating over how to start the conversation.
How would Yuzao Haomei convince the boys in class?
With her confidence in her looks, she’d probably just walk up to them and, with her cute face, say, "Hey, XX-kun, I want to go to the Capital City for the school trip. Could you vote for the Capital City too?"
For a sixteen-year-old boy in high school, being asked by a pretty girl in class, most would probably agree, right? It doesn’t really matter where the school trip goes.
But Dubian Che couldn’t do it that easily.
Ikeda Kazumi and her friends had already said they were planning to go to Nara to eat deer sashimi; how could he possibly have the nerve to ask?
While he was hesitating, Ikeda Kazumi, leading the three girls she often hung out with, approached him.
"Mr. Dubian, good morning!"
"Good morning," Dubian Che looked at them.
There was heating in the classroom, so they had removed their scarves and taken off their suit jackets, revealing beige sleeveless knit vests worn over white shirts.
It’s said that this is the favorite style of high school girls, and some even dress this way on purpose for cuteness even in the summer—news from Kunii Shuichi and Saito Keisuke.
"Mr. Dubian," the girl named Nishimori on the far right said in a playful voice, "can I ask you a question?"
"Of course, go ahead."
To make sure he could bring up the topic of voting afterward, Dubian Che decided that as long as it didn’t involve 30% of the mysteries and no one asked how many people he liked, he could answer anything else.
The girl who asked the question switched, her tone lively: "Mr. Dubian, where do you plan to go for the school trip?"
"The Capital City. I’ve loved shrines and temples since I was little, I’m really interested in history and culture, and I’ve heard that the autumn leaves in the Capital City are beautiful, the waters of Yachuan are crystal clear, and the kaiseki cuisine is very delicious. I’ve always wanted to go and see it."
That was all Dubian Che knew about the Capital City.
’Please, get the hint already!’
"The Capital City, huh!" Ikeda Kazumi nodded, and with a youthful spirit, said ’Thanks~’ and prepared to walk away with the girls, laughing merrily.
"Um..."
"What’s up? Do you have something else, Mr. Dubian?" The girls turned back.
Dubian Che hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind: "Ikeda-san, are you still planning to go to Nara?"
The girls looked at each other, then suddenly started to smile mysteriously.
Ikeda Kazumi placed her hands behind her back and in a cute and proud pose replied, "Nope, we’ve decided to go to the Capital City~"
"...Huh? Why?" The suddenness of it all didn’t even give Dubian Che the chance to feel surprised.
The girls glanced at each other again, their lips curving, trying to contain their laughter but failing to hide it.
"It’s for you, Mr. Dubian." As soon as they finished speaking, they left, laughing cheerfully.
Dubian Che sat at his desk, stroking the Ying Lili folder on his English textbook, looking puzzled.
Being handsome, could that really let you do whatever you want?
At the entrance to the classroom, Kunii Shuichi and Saito Keisuke were walking in, arm in arm.
Their heads were close together, whispering something, a conspiratorial atmosphere surrounding them.
When they saw Dubian Che, they hurried over.
"Dubian," Kunii Shuichi said in a low and urgent tone, "we’ve found out, class three plans to go to the Capital City, you’ve got to convince the girls to vote for the Capital City during the meeting!"
"Yeah, hurry, time’s running out! Get as many votes as you can!" Saito Keisuke also urged.
"Has it started yet? It’s already over."
"Huh?" The two blinked, "What do you mean?"
"The girls’ side is already taken care of." Dubian Che supported his head with his left hand, twirling a pen with his right.
"That’s great! Wait," Kunii Shuichi caught on, "how did you know class three is going to the Capital City?"
"From the Wind Instrument Club’s Line group, they talk about the trip every day, I saw Ichiki Aoi saying it." Dubian Che was actually no longer in that group.
"You’re incredible! Truly as the fish needs water, so do we need Dubian!" Recently history class had been filled with the Three Kingdoms; Kunii Shuichi was beyond saving.
At eight forty, during the morning meeting, Xiaoquan Aonai asked the two class leaders to conduct the voting.
She herself sat at the spot of the female class leader, Ikeda Kazumi, and looked back to see Dubian Che writing down "Capital City" on a slip of paper.
"Hokkaido, 1 vote!" The male class leader adjusted his glasses as he announced the vote.
The board already had the places provided by the school written on it; Ikeda Kazumi marked a tally under Hokkaido.
"The Capital City, 1 vote!"
"The Capital City, 1 vote!"
"Kyushu, 1 vote!"
...
"Mr. Xiaoquan." Dubian Che tugged at the sleeve of Xiaoquan Aonai’s arm.
