Chapter 155 The New Student Union Is Born
[Please be quiet, everyone, the election of the new student union president begins now! 】
"First, the first candidate, Kazuno-san's support speech!"
Shuchiin's student union election is very simple, that is, democratic voting. All the 600 students present except the third grade students had their own votes.
The four candidates and supporters only have one speech opportunity to describe the advantages of becoming the student union president. Support speeches usually analyze the candidates' abilities from an objective perspective.
The candidates' speeches at the end of the cheers are a real struggle for power and connections. In this college, the student union has much greater power than imagined.
For example, the student union has the right to cancel or even modify all school activities and school rules and regulations. The student council president can even directly apply for reforms to Shuchiin's senior chairman, bypassing the principal.
Baiyin Yuxing stood in the background, listening to the support speech in front of him, feeling unspeakably nervous in his heart.
"Since I, Kaguya Shinomiya, have agreed to give you a support speech, you should prepare to become the student council president."
Shinomiya Kaguya was a little dissatisfied with Shirogane Miyuki's nervousness. She thought that even she had taken action. Could it be that the student union election still couldn't be settled?
"Hey, Baiyin, you have to work hard. I'm still waiting for you to ask for leave for me in the future."
Shirogane Miyuki saw Uchiha Ling who had sneaked into the background at some point.
"Hey...didn't we agree that you would be the general manager? As a member of the student union, you shouldn't ask for leave every day."
Uchiha Ling chuckled, "You also said it was in name only. I'm not very interested in student council members."
"Next is the second candidate, Hongo-san's support speech!"
Shinomiya Kaguya shook his head and chuckled, "It's just a bunch of rabble. With the blood of the Shinomiya family, it is natural for me to win the final victory. Are you right, Uchiha-san?"
Uchiha Ling looked down at his phone, "Ah, yes, yes."
"..."
Shinomiya Kaguya gritted his teeth. It seemed like he should urge Hayasaka Ai there. Why hadn't he taken down Uchiha Ling at this time? Do I have to take action personally?
Humph, just wait! When we are all in the student union, I will definitely take down this arrogant guy like you! Then let you experience the feeling of lovelorn.
Uchiha Ling didn't know what Kaguya Shinomiya was thinking, because he was using his mobile phone to contact a candidate for student union president, asking if he wanted to come over and have fun.
"Next is the support speech of the third candidate, Shirogane-san!"
Shinomiya Kaguya slowly came onto the stage. At the same time, the big screen on the stage suddenly lit up. Did she also make a relevant ppt? She was indeed well prepared.
As Shinomiya Kaguya continued to speak, Shirogane Miyuki became more and more confident. yes! He is not fighting alone. Although Shinomiya-san only helps him in a transactional manner, there are also Uchiha! And everyone in the Classics Department!
Uchiha Ling chuckled, "It's a good speech, but if you want to truly get the position of student council president, Shirogane...your next speech is also particularly important."
Baiyin Yuxing closed his eyes, took a deep breath and stood up suddenly.
"Leave it to me! After the supporters have finished their speeches, the candidates' speeches will be given in reverse order, right? In other words, at the same time as Shinomiya-san's speech... it's the time for me to take the stage!"
Shinomiya Kaguya: "Thank you everyone for listening, and I hope everyone can cast a fair vote for Shirogane Goyuki."
It's now! Baiyin Yuxing took one step forward and headed towards the stage.
"Next...Eh? Uh...Next is the fourth candidate, Yanyun's supporter speech!"
Baiyin Yuxing, who had just taken two steps, said: "Ah???"
Shinomiya Kaguya, who just stepped down: "Huh???"
All the students in the audience: "Hey!!!"
Uchiha Ling in the background stood up, and at the same time, a white cat suddenly appeared at his feet and followed Uchiha Ling to the podium.
"Come on, Shirogane. Although I support you, I have to agree to my cat's request for support."
Baiyin Yuxing almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, "You...your cat will invite you to support?? You just want to play!"
Shinomiya Kaguya looked speechlessly at Uchiha Ling who followed the cat onto the stage.
Forget it, I have a sure chance of winning anyway, I'm just a cat, I can't afford to make any waves.
Uchiha Ling stood in the center of the podium, while Yanyun-chan stood obediently to the side.
"Hello everyone, I am the support speaker for the president candidate Yanyun, Uchiha Ling. I believe everyone has met this Yanyun who is both good in character and academics."
"And Yanyun is also the first person from outside the school to be granted student status by the principal personally since the establishment of Shuchi Academy, whether it is for his heroic appearance at the sports festival or..."
The students in the audience were stunned for a moment, huh? Isn't Yanyun Jiang the candidate they pranked when they were bored? Why do you really want to run for president...Interesting! !
Backstage, Governor Baiyin sighed.
"Forget it, Uchiha is only here for fun anyway. The students in the audience can only watch for fun. I'll continue to practice my speech."
Shinomiya Kaguya also shook her head helplessly, "Shirogane-san, what happens next is up to you. Anyway, your opponent is just a cat. You can't even compare to Uchiha-san's pet."
Baiyin Yuxing coughed lightly, "How is this possible? There are many classmates and members in the audience who support me. They will definitely vote for me."
In the audience - Hayasaka Ai gently held his forehead. Student Ling's... is indeed a bit outrageous.
Chika Fujiwara blinked, "I feel like...it's not impossible."
Chitanda Eru: "I quite like Kamo-chan..."
Yukinoshita Yukino: "Sorry, I want to vote for Yanyun-chan."
Hayasaka Ai turned around and looked at the three girls, no! Don't do it, if Shirogane-san's votes really don't defeat Yanyun, this will become the most outrageous student council president in Shuchiin's history!
"This is the end of my speech, but right after the supporters have finished their speeches, it's the candidates' turn, right? Then please invite Yanyun to speak for everyone."
Uchiha Ling leaned down and picked up Yanyun-chan, holding it up before stopping in front of the microphone.
Yanyunjiang: "...Meow~meow! Meow meow——"
After a brief silence, there was thunderous applause! Both the members of the Classical Literature Department who were familiar with Yanyun-chan and the cat-loving students who often went to feed cats all applauded.
"Okay! Classmate Yanyun said it very well!"
"I'm really touched. I didn't expect Yanyun to have such lofty ambitions."
"I decided to vote for classmate Yanyun! No one can stop me!"
Uchiha Ling on the stage: "Ah???"
Baiyin Yuxing in the background: "What did it say? Is this reasonable!!!!"
What are you doing? I just got bored and came up to talk nonsense. Do you really understand what Yanyun-chan is saying? I, the master, don’t even understand.
He, Uchiha Reiko, didn't do anything. Yanyun-chan, did you secretly learn genjutsu? !
....
In the end, as expected, Baiyin Yuxing defeated the other three contestants with 310 votes and successfully won the position of the new student union president.
After seeing the results, Shirogane Miyuki finally felt relieved, while Uchiha Ling sat aside with Yanyun-chan in his arms.
"Hahaha, it's just a joke. Yanyun, the 600 students, only has more than 50 votes. You don't think you can really make a cat become the president, do you?"
Baiyin Yuxing scratched his head in embarrassment, although he knew that this was impossible, but what if the group of students outside were messing around.
"But anyway! Vice President Shinomiya-san, General Secretary Uchiha-san, and Secretary Fujiwara-san, let's go to the student union office for handover!"
