The Guy Who Messed Up Is Gradually Doing His Best - Chapter 31: Idle Talk (The Head of the Newspaper Club's Perspective)

I am Sononeta Saiko, the newspaper club head.

The environment surrounding our school changed one day.

He is now the only male netTuber, which makes him quite popular among women. His influence is tremendous.

When he started attending school, it became a topic of conversation, and it turned out to be true. This was the first time in the world, and it seems that the media flocked to him, but those around him prevented it.

He was the only man who was kind and friendly to women. It seems that people were worried that if he ever got hurt and withdrew from the world, it would be a problem.

Since this information comes from a bulletin board site, I can’t take everything at face value, but I don’t think it’s too far off.

The female students at his school were overjoyed, while the female students at schools completely unrelated to his were deeply disheartened.

Our school’s students, needless to say. Absenteeism, tardiness, lack of focus on studies, and so on—this will lower the reputation of our school, which was once renowned as a prestigious institution.

Especially for us third-year students, it will affect our job hunting and university admissions. My life plan will be thrown into disarray.

The teachers and the student council took immediate action. They negotiated with the male students belonging to our school, hoping that if they could pass through, it might improve the current situation a bit.

I knew it was an unreasonable negotiation, but since there was no other way, I had no choice but to do it.

But, there are a lot of selfish men. My brother is one of them. He just gives orders to women (my mother and me) and probably has never even thought about listening to our requests.

There might have been men who would act if it benefited them (according to my mother). The negotiation partner is still a student. They don’t even need to think about profit yet.

As expected, the male students had all turned him down. Except for one. Yes, surprisingly, there was one who accepted him.

Everyone joined hands in joy, but that person was Gouda Taketo. He was also a student who had caused trouble before.

So, our newspaper club was asked by the discipline committee chairperson, Mimamori Kyouka.

They want me to gather information about him, and report once a week. If I determine it’s important, report as needed.

Since I was also interested in him, I readily agreed.

All the students in the newspaper club want to work in the media, so they would have gathered information on their own even if they weren’t asked to.

As soon as he started attending, changes began to occur within the school, and the students regained their vitality.

It seems that the increase in students who care about their appearance was an unexpected turn of events, but it doesn’t concern our newspaper club. No, we might as well take advantage of this and create a special feature section on the latest trendy cosmetics.

Due to past events, there were a few students who didn’t think highly of him (fans of Sawakaze Kazuya), but they are kept in check by involving others and having them keep an eye on him.

If it comes to that, they will probably use the privileges of the disciplinary committee (the use of psychic powers) to suppress it, so I’m not too worried.

However, after causing the problem, he didn’t seem quiet or oppressive.

On the contrary, he’s quite cooperative, and even when I watch the videos he participated in, I feel positive about him. I don’t think so, but he might just be putting on a facade.

“Well then…”

When I take out my smartphone and open the MAIN app, I check the third-year group chat.

“Hmm…”

.

.

“The folk dance was great~”

“Yeah. It was awesome.”

“Gouda-kun, I like you.”

“I thought I’d dance to make some memories, but that smile was unfair. I still want to see him.”

“I totally get that~”

“Gouda-kun, would you marry me?”

“Yeah, right? Gouda-kun was really kind, wasn’t he? Even though we danced six folk dance songs, he kept smiling the whole time without making a single unpleasant face.”

“I thought he was a prince who came out of a manga.”

“Oh, actually, I thought so too.”

“Could you kiss the back of my hand?”

“A kiss, huh? I hugged him in ‘Yoridorimi Dori’.”

“How nice, I was ‘Hiku Tea Mata,’ so we just held hands.”

“You said it was just holding hands, but your face was all red afterward.”

“I smelled his scent a lot, so Taketo-kun smells nice.”

“Disciplinary committee member, there’s a pervert here~”

“Sorry, I was also feeling dizzy from Taketo-kun’s scent.”

“I’m glad we could hold hands the whole time during ‘Hiku Tea Mata’ too.”

“Just holding hands made my heart race.”

“I want to hug you one more time.”

“Hey, hey, more importantly, isn’t it unfair that you took a picture with Gouda-kun from Class 1-A?”

“We wanted to take pictures too.”

“Graduation is coming up soon. I want a commemorative photo.”

“Right?”

“I have to put this in the student council suggestion box.”

“I’m going to go out.”

“Wow”

“Speaking of which, he was running alone on the playground after everyone went home.”

“Eh, really? Did watching the sports festival make you want to run? That’s kind of cute.”

“How cute~”

“I want to pet you.”

“He was running the 200 meters, and he was really fast.”

“I was so surprised by how incredibly fast it was, I couldn’t help but be captivated.”

“Yeah, it was cool.”

“Really? Are all men fast runners?”

“Maybe that’s true.”

“Got it.”

.

.

“Looks like there’s no information that could become a special issue. Let’s leave the group chats for the second and first years to the juniors, and next, let’s check the bulletin board site.”

Did Gouda-kun really participate in the sports festival?

913: Anonymous-chan

Huh, really? That’s the first I’ve heard of it.

>>912

Really.

I go to the same school.

915: Anonymous-chan

No way—Taketo-kun participates in something?

916: Anonymous-chan

Folk dance. I danced “Hiku Tea Mata” and “Yoridorimi Dori” for three years.

For the next one or two years, only the winner of the footrace would receive a prize flag from Taketo-kun and then get a hug.

917: Anonymous-chan

Folk dance…

Hug…

918: Anonymous-chan

No, I’m about to cry.

That’s strange, the screen is distorted.

I’m so jealous. I wish Taketo-kun would come to our school.

921: Anonymous-chan

Totally.

I don’t want to go to a different school from Taketo-kun.

So, I understand how you feel.

“I also have a picture where Taketo-kun’s abs are peeking out, but I won’t share it. It’s my little secret treasure. Hehe.”

The head of the newspaper club, who was supposed to be gathering information, was now basking in a sense of superiority all alone.

While gathering information about Gouda Taketo, she came to appreciate his good character and was gradually becoming a follower. She is Sononeta Saiko, the head of the newspaper club.
