”Chikaa”

Nozo to ic association was the one who stood in the ue when I entered He looked considerably ill-humored

Haruta appeared in front of us in a haste as if to protect us

”Could you please tell us what happened, senpai?”

His voice was calm and composed I wondered if Koizumi-san had his pride flattered by the word senpai as he wasn't usually called that way, because he turned his face away andlook just noas a lie: ”This has nothing to do with you”

”If you leave it as it is, the people in the gallery will go notify the teachers”

Haruta shi+fted his attention to the side of the corridor When Koizumi-san turned to look, the club members whose faces appeared in thesi person

Koizu behindout that copper sulfate crystal Don't make it any more difficult”

”I- I didn't steal that kind of scary thing”

”Don't lie”

”I' been o ”I don't see very hat you're getting at though”

Koizu as if it was difficult to talk about it Nozohtened of hi letter, is it senpai?”

Haruta's unwavering words echoed in the clubroom Koizumi-san made a somewhat surprised face, but he readily admitted it, ”Yeah I did”

Nozomi and I were at a loss for words I was stunned and said, ”I'll apprehend you”

”Whoa, wait a minute” Koizumi-san hurriedly excused himself ”Wasn't that obviously a joke? No one in school takes it seriously, let alone that it's expected for every year First of all, don't you know that when the invisible writing on that paper is revealed, the ic association” will co!” I said, unintentionally raising ely assented ”I also thought of that as a joke Well, it was excessive, but Nevertheless, I couldn't hear any joke in what senpai said just now”

Koizu her as the crystal thief?”

”No,” Haruta denied ”You said, 'Don't make it any ets cancelled, ill become difficult?”

I stared at Haruta The conversation had progressed in an unforeseen direction What in the world was Haruta trying to ask?

Koizu, his face eventually becaets cancelled, there will be cultural clubs that risk being abolished”

”So it was so like that after all Wouldn't those be the Flower Arrangeic association, the Railroad Research Society, Astronomical Observation club and the Household Club?”

Eh? -- Those were all the cultural clubs that I listed on the et it huh,” Koizuht ”You're right The decline of culturaltime for all of us, but the recent increase of students who aren't part of any club has encouraged that even more Thanks to that, the first years and second years are thinning out and the pheno When the second years lose their edge, the first years are obliged to becoraded”

”Please wait,” I interrupted the conversation that I couldn't follow ”I don't think a club will be simply abolished just because the amount of club members is insufficient I think it's the same for every other cultural club, even the school wouldn't take such a terrible measure for only that much”

Who's that hotheaded woman? -- Koizumi-san said

She's my friend Hehehe -- Haruta said

For soot pissed

”U voice ”Perhaps the two of you are talking about the tournament achievements?”

”Well, I suppose so,” Haruta continued ”Sadly the annual gap between the budget a The ones that get less are of course the cultural clubs It's because the activities of the cultural clubs aren't spectacular on the surface and compared to the sports clubs there are less chances to do PR for the club activities But it's different if there is a tournament and an opportunity to receive a certificate of merit at a school assembly It's also okay if there is no fuss over a certificate ofas you have a track record of continually participating in tourna a club's continuation to attention”

”That's how it is” This time it was Koizumi-san who opened his mouth ”To cultural clubs who have no official tournaments, the cultural festival becomes the only place to present their activities The content of their presentations will be exaet acquisition If it's possible to win even a little et, they can evade at least the loss of vitality Even if the club et acquisition there will possibly becole spider's thread for the sake of the club's continuation”

Petrified like a terracotta figure I asked Nozo fine?”

”Doing fine?”

”Well -- ” I shi+fted aze to the club members ere in the corridor There were only fourClub, Nozoently participate in an official tournaa Koshi+en”

” What's that?”

Haruta and Koizu our conversation suddenly burst into laughter
