"Wuwuwu, Chika Mama, I don't want to leave you, I want to be with Chika Mama forever~!"
"Good, good, Kaguya-chan, don't cry, don't cry. Chika Mama will always be by your side."
After a period of chaos, Fujiwara Chika seemed to have truly awakened some kind of strange attribute.
After sensing Shinomiya Kaguya's abnormality, she had, in just a few minutes, learned how to soothe her without being taught, and had even directly substituted herself into the role of her mother.
If anyone familiar with her were to see her in this state now, they probably wouldn't believe that this was the usually carefree and innocent young girl.
However, no one could see her in this state full of maternal love now, because this was the chairman's office of Shuchi'in Academy. Normally, students would not enter or exit.
But Shinomiya Kaguya was different.
Because the current chairman of Shuchi'in was none other than her eldest brother, Shinomiya Ōkō.
Although the relationship between the two was not very good, because Shinomiya Kaguya had recently awakened Hamon and her status within the family had been greatly improved, she, who had obtained more family authority, naturally also had the qualification to freely enter and exit this office.
Anyway, Shinomiya Ōkō was not at Shuchi'in right now, so there was no need to worry about the two siblings running into each other under such awkward circumstances.
Therefore, after Shinomiya Kaguya had caused such a commotion in Fujiwara Chika's classroom, Hayasaka Ai had also hurriedly taken measures to bring her own young mistress, as well as Fujiwara Chika, whom she was tightly hugging and refusing to let go of, to the chairman's office together.
"Miko-san, regarding Kaguya-sama's situation, I'll have to trouble you to explain it to Chika-san. I'm going to deal with what happened just now first."
Looking at her own young mistress's appearance, the helpless Hayasaka Ai could only entrust this to Yotsuya Miko on the side.
As a capable maid, she now had to go and reduce the impact caused by her young mistress's actions just now.
The young mistress of Japan's richest family, the Shinomiya family, was hugging the second young lady of the Fujiwara family, a political dynasty, and calling her "Mama," and was even saying things like they wanted to be together forever.
One can imagine that even if Shinomiya Kaguya were to transfer schools now, what she had done today would be enough to be circulated in Shuchi'in for ten years.
Looking at Shinomiya Kaguya, who was still tightly clinging to Fujiwara Chika's embrace at this moment, Hayasaka Ai only felt a huge headache.
Didn't my young mistress used to secretly harbor some resentment towards Fujiwara Chika's figure in private? How did she become so attached now?
She only hoped that her young mistress would quickly wake up. This matter had blown up too much. Even if she tried her best to suppress the impact, it would probably spread everywhere in a short time.
It was better to leave this mess for her own young mistress, who had created it all, to have a headache over.
And Fujiwara Chika, full of doubts, was also curiously looking at Yotsuya Miko, this young girl she had met for the first time.
She didn't know what the other's relationship with Shinomiya Kaguya was, and even less why she was constantly muttering somewhat strange words like "I don't want to leave" in her embrace.
"Anyway, the situation is probably like this..." After Hayasaka Ai left, Yotsuya Miko could only bite the bullet and begin to explain to her.
...
At Toyogasaki High School, Miyauchi Hikage, who was watching this "mother-daughter affection" scene, felt that the diary was actually quite gentle.
At least until now, Shinomiya Kaguya had not yet left her Kaguya-chan state.
If he were to decide the punishment, he would have chosen to have her exit the Kaguya-chan state right after she had called out "Chika Mama."
For Shinomiya Kaguya to be soberly feeling the gazes of all the surrounding classmates after knowing what she had just done, that would be a real shame play.
And for the other girls, when Shinomiya Kaguya had cried out "Mama" in Fujiwara Chika's arms, the expressions on their faces couldn't help but stiffen at that moment.
Even the look in their eyes as they looked at the diary in front of them had become a little subtle.
So, if they don't complete the commissions they've received, will they also receive such a punishment?
They didn't want to go and call someone else "Mama" in front of so many people.
Thinking of Shinomiya Kaguya's teary-eyed, genuine-emotion-filled appearance, that was a complete social death!
Putting themselves in Shinomiya Kaguya's situation, many of the girls shivered on the spot.
It wasn't until a good while later that someone slowly asked in the group.
"Um, I remember Kaguya also accepted a commission to become the student council president of Shuchi'in, right? After this operation of hers, can she still complete the commission to become the student council president?"
To this, Yukinoshita Yukino, as the daughter of a member of the Chiba Prefectural Assembly, gave an answer that was hard to say.
"The current chairman of Shuchi'in is still a member of the Shinomiya family. As long as the Shinomiya family still has its current status, there will definitely be no shortage of people in the school who want to curry favor with Kaguya."
As the most famous noble school in Japan, the students of Shuchi'in were quite precocious, and their understanding of interests was also far more profound than that of ordinary high school students.
One could only say that originally, Shinomiya Kaguya's commission might have been of normal or even easy difficulty.
But after this incident, the difficulty of this commission had risen to extremely difficult.
However, as long as Shinomiya Kaguya was willing to pay a sufficient price, she could still find a way to complete it.
Yukinoshita Yukino sat in the classroom that the Service Club had just applied for, looking at the commissions in her commission list.
She had accepted the commission to establish the Service Club, and had quickly passed the application.
The only problem now was that the Service Club had no fame at all, and she had to complete a commission from a student within a week.
And the main problem was that in two days, it would be Golden Week, which had a full week of vacation.
In other words, if she couldn't complete this commission in these two days, she would also have to accept the penalty for commission failure.
Originally, she hadn't paid too much attention to these penalties, but looking at the process of Shinomiya Kaguya's punishment, to be honest, for a 16 or 17-year-old girl, it was indeed quite impactful.
This was a hundred times more difficult to accept than Jerry making her walk a large dog in the city.
So, I have to take the initiative?
Yukinoshita Yukino thought to herself.
It wasn't just her who was considering how to speed up the completion of her commission to avoid long nights of bad dreams. Many of the girls were struggling with this now.
Just like Bocchi, who was now trembling.
After all, social phobes are like this. When they are alone, under the influence of all sorts of information on the internet, it is very easy for them to get carried away and make choices that they would never possibly make normally.
Bocchi-chan, under the encouragement of everyone in the group, especially Hoshino Ai, who was an idol, and Tsukimi Eiko, who was a singer, with the thought that she must change, had resolutely accepted these commissions.
"As long as I don't want to be punished for failing the commission, I can definitely make a change. I believe I can successfully form my own band in high school and become a famous person!" This was what Bocchi, who had accepted the commission at home, had fantasized in her mind.
But when she chose to carry her beloved guitar to the classroom, and still didn't dare to say a single word to a single classmate for the entire day, she knew that she had once again overestimated her own courage.
She really still couldn't take the initiative to talk to strangers, even though through the teasing of the mysterious person in the diary, she already knew the identities of her future teammates.
"Why don't I just honestly accept the penalty for commission failure? Anyway, it probably won't be too severe..."
As the thought of retreating appeared in Bocchi's mind, she even felt that her mood was more relaxed than when she had accepted the commission.
It wasn't until she saw the punishment scene of Shinomiya Kaguya looking for her mother.
To be honest, just looking at this scene, Bocchi-chan, who suffered from social anxiety and cringe cancer, almost suffocated on the spot. It was only because the diary had detected her fragile mentality and had paused the live broadcast.
Even so, it had taken Bocchi a good half a day to finally recover.
One was voluntary social death, the other was mandatory super social death. If she had to choose between the two, she felt that it would probably be better for her to just die now.
"What should I do... what should I do," struggling like this, Bocchi-chan gradually melted into a puddle of goo on her desk.
Of course, not all the girls' mentalities were as easy to collapse as Bocchi's.
In fact, although most of the girls were a little worried, after taking a look at the daily commissions they had received, they didn't feel that they would fail.
And among them, the one with the calmest mentality was naturally Shiina Mashiro.
To the extent that when Kasumigaoka Utaha came to find her to chat after class with a serious face, she was a little impatient seeing Mashiro's plain appearance.
"I dare to bet that the penalties for these mission failures were definitely cooked up by that mysterious person guy. And he deliberately released the scene of Kaguya receiving her punishment for us to see. So you have to be careful when you accept commissions in the future."
Shiina Mashiro, on the other hand, just nodded lightly, but there was still no reaction on her face.
Because she knew that if she encountered a commission that was difficult to complete, then Miyauchi Hikage would definitely step in to help her.
And even if she really needed to accept a punishment, Shiina Mashiro believed that the punishment for her failure would definitely be related to Miyauchi Hikage, so that would be fine.
At this moment, she was staring tightly at the scenes on the diary, constantly recording Shinomiya Kaguya's wailing expression and the reactions of the people around her.
These were all materials that she rarely had the opportunity to see normally, which could make up for her deficiencies in this area.
And after Kasumigaoka Utaha had finished talking about the mysterious person's affairs, she began to ramble on about the person who had snatched Shinomiya Kaguya's commission.
"To be honest, I suspect that all of this was self-directed and self-acted by the mysterious person. He arranged the commissions for us, and then deliberately leaked our commissions on the side of the second batch of girls, letting those people complete our commissions without their knowledge. Maybe he just wants to use this method to provoke contradictions between us and satisfy those malicious hobbies in his heart."
Muttering this, Kasumigaoka Utaha thought of her current few commissions. Although it didn't look like they would fail because they were snatched by others, she still had to be a little more careful.
"Mashiro, you should also remember to keep a close eye on Miyauchi Hikage in the future. My commission is to get Reading Value just by seeking help from him. If other girls can intercept this commission of mine, they will probably take the initiative to get close to him."
"If you find any unknown girls approaching him, remember to tell me." These past few days, besides going to find him to consult about the plot of her novel when she was at school, Kasumigaoka Utaha would also occasionally send him a message after school to ask.
The upper limit of 10 Reading Points per week had been reached by her in just two days.
Feeling the further strengthened ripple in her body, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt that she absolutely could not let this stable point-farming spot be snatched away by someone else.
To this sentence, Shiina Mashiro just nodded in a daze.
Looking at her unenlightened appearance, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt that she still had to help out herself. Otherwise, if Miyauchi Hikage was snatched away by someone else, then Shiina Mashiro would really have no time for regrets.
...
And the scene returns to Shuchi'in.
After Yotsuya Miko had finished explaining the situation, Fujiwara Chika, who had originally been able to exude her own maternal nature towards Shinomiya Kaguya, was also dumbfounded.
She had originally thought that Shinomiya Kaguya was missing her mother and her best friend too much while she had a cold, which was why she had done such an eye-popping thing while her brain was fried.
But the Shinomiya Kaguya who had been her friend since elementary school was actually going to transfer schools?
And she was going to transfer to a special religious school whose name she had never even heard of?
Although the Fujiwara family had produced a prime minister and had many high-ranking officials in the family, after all, the affairs of the supernatural world were of great importance. As the second daughter of the family, before she had shown her own ability, at most she had only seen some exorcists from the Shinto religion, but had never personally seen them exorcise demons.
As for the Jujutsu world, which could currently only be considered a single mountain peak in the hidden world, she naturally couldn't know even more.
In her heart, the students in that so-called Jujutsu High were definitely all some kind of monks. Shinomiya Kaguya was using this method to escape the oppression of her own brothers.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Shinomiya Kaguya, who was taking a nap on her chest because she had cried for too long.
Shinomiya Kaguya was not crying now, but she wanted to cry.
"Aah, Kaguya-chan, I can't bear to part with you either! If you become a nun, what will I do?!"
Crying like this, Fujiwara Chika couldn't hold it in for a moment and also directly hugged Shinomiya Kaguya and began to cry.
If she could, she would also like to lie in Shinomiya Kaguya's arms.
It was a pity that Shinomiya Kaguya really didn't have much of a bosom, so she could only choose to rest on her shoulder and express her reluctance.
This also woke up Shinomiya Kaguya, who had just fallen asleep.
Still not having returned to her original form, after seeing Fujiwara Chika also start to cry, she immediately let out an even louder cry.
Looking at the even more chaotic scene, and listening to the cries that rose and fell in her ears, Yotsuya Miko truly felt that Shinomiya Kaguya's punishment was also a torment to her own mentality.
Before, she only had to soothe one person. And she had thought that this Fujiwara Chika seemed to have a rather gentle and mature personality, which was why she had simply explained some things to her.
Who could have thought that after hearing this, she would also directly start to cry!
With a complicated expression, she soothed the two girls, trying to get them to calm down first.
At the same time, she was thinking in her heart, how much longer would it take for Shinomiya Kaguya to return to her original form!
