Chabashira-sensei explained us the rules and stuff, gave us the phones that we will be using for three years, and then, we headed to the entrance ceremony.
After the entrance ceremony ended, which was basically Papa Sakayanagi inflating our ego, we were free to explore the large campus.
Most of the people went to shopping and blowing up their money, and some went to go to the dorms first.
"Horikita-san, want to come shopping with us?"
Kushida, wanting me to blow up my money, asked me to come with her friends, that didn't know each other two hours prior.
"I apologize, but I have a rather important personal task. I will join you guys tomorrow."
"Oh... Then let's meet tomorrow!"
Surprisingly, this noisy bitch backed off.
I curtly told them that I don't want to go with them, and headed to a person I saw overseeing the Opening Ceremony, and probably arranged it.
"Yo, Manabu."
As I said his name, every member of the Student Council turned towards me, including him, surprised by my weird greeting.
"Huh!? A fresher? You know the President? Wait! Let me guess! You are his little sister!?"
Nagumo said all this loudly, looking back and froth between me and Manabu.
Well, he guessed right. Our appearance are quite similar.
I nodded to his statement, and looked at Loli senpai. I forgot what her name was.
I grabbed her arm, and looked at Manabu.
"Is she your girlfriend?"
"G-girlfriend!?"
Loli senpai freaked out and blushed, and Manabu was quick to make her depressed.
"No."
I stared at him suspiciously, and said,
"Alright. Manabu, come with me to grab the shopping bags and pay the bill."
"I am busy."
Tch. Even though he is curious about what happened to me, he won't budge easily huh.
"Well, I am not busy. How about I come with you?"
Nagumo asked. This bitch...
"Then please fill in for my busy shit brother. I have some business to settle with him today.
Manabu, are you coming, or not?"
Since Nagumo is not busy, he can take care of Manabu's task.
I looked at Manabu dead in the eyes, wondering if he will still refuse.
Everyone was staring at the commotion, so I guess he can't ruin his reputation.
"Alright."
I smiled in victory. And looked at Nagubitch with an apologetic look.
"Sorry um-"
"Oh. I forgot to introduce myself. I am Nagumo bla bla bla."
"I am Horikita Suzune. It's nice to meet you. And I apologize to increase your workload. But, I must deal with this shit today."
"Ahahaha! No worries! You met with him after... two years, right? Enjoy your time. And if you have any trouble, you can ask for my help anytime."
"Thank you. Manabu, follow me."
I left Loli Senpai's hand, but not before exchanging numbers with her, and Nagumo.
By the way, Loli Senpai's name is Tachibana Akane.
As we left the scene, I ignored Manabu's gaze and continued forward, to the Mall.
"This will be the last thing I will ask you for, nii-san. Our relationship will end today. You don't have to worry about me copying a piece of shit like you anymore."
I said with a voice that seemed a bit hurt, and Nagumo's stalkers probably heard it. But I don't care.
Maybe Nagumo won't idolize Manabu anymore, and by large, won't try to mess with me?
No. That's a foolish, wishful thinking. An obsessive stalker remains an obsessive stalker. And Nagumo is the boss of stalkers.
"Suzune-"
"Shut up. I don't want to waste my words on you. The least you can do as a big brother is pay for my shopping and lift my bags. Don't meddle more than you are allowed to."
He shut up, and followed me around.
Trying to think about what caused this change in me. And probably thinking of a way to save this sibling relationship.
But, he kept his mouth shut. Thankfully.
Then, we went to the mall. Where things are extra expensive.
I started buying a lot of things that I will need during my three years here. And a lot of things that I will probably not need. And made him pay for everything.
I will build a wall of clothes, and have Manabu pay for it!
You have me!
'But I still want to deplete his pockets.'
With Suzu, I probably will not wear real clothes from now on. But well, wouldn't it be weird if I wore clothes that I never bought?
I did the classic, 'from here to there' move too, and bought a lot.
Thankfully, I didn't encounter Kushida's gang, and instead, someone else.
One pajamas that I tried to grab was touched by someone else.
"Eh? You can take it."
It was Ichinose Honami. The leader of Class 1-B. Well, in the future. No one in our year knows about the class battles right now.
"No. You can take it. I am just grabbing things at random."
I was someone who lived her whole life in hoodies and school uniform. Even after going to college, my hoodies didn't betray me.
In short, I have zero fashion sense. I am mostly just wasting Manabu's money.
Ichinose shook her head, and kindly said, "You can take it."
"No. You can take it. In exchange, how about we exchange contacts and you help me in choosing clothes? Please?"
I pleaded to her, with starry eyes glancing at her up and down as she was wearing a dress for trial.
She definitely has a good fashion sense, despite being poor. Well, she looks good, so she will look good in whatever she wears anyway.
"Sure! I am Ichinose Honami, nice to meet you!"
"I am Horikita Suzune. Nice to meet you as well."
She introduced me to her gang, and we all exchanged numbers.
"Who is this? Your boy-"
"Brother."
"Oh!? Both siblings in the same school, how lucky!"
"You can ignore him. Hey, how do you think will this look on me?"
So, I ended up buying everything that she recommended. I am not the one to question her choice.
I bought everything. From underwear and swimsuits, to a large variety of dresses, 7 school uniforms, bedsheets, curtains, Hatsune Miku pillows, school bag, everything that I could think of that I will need.
"That will be 178,250."
Bregrudgingly, Manabu paid for everything.
By now, I have shopped for around 190,000 points already.
"Thanks for helping me. Do you want to go to the electronics department?"
I asked the gang, but it seems that they still weren't done.
Well, I understand. Unlike me, who just bought everything they recommended, they have to choose carefully.
"Umm, we will still need a little time..."
"Then I apologise. After finishing shopping, I have a matter to deal with. If you will excuse me..."
"It's fine."
Since Ichinose said it's fine, I took my leave.
Then, we entered the electronics department, where I found Sotomura, the class's otaku, looking through the laptop specs.
"Hello Sotomura-san."
"Ah-! Horikita-san! Thou bla bla bla-"
As he talked to me and I nodded along, I decided to start executing my plan to get away from Ayanokoji.
He is an otaku. Judging by the way he talks, he doesn't have any female friends for a long time. Or even if he has, she must be like him.
He sits directly behind Hirata...
Hmmm....
That's a great idea.
"Sotomura-san, how much points do you have left?"
"Hmm, let me see... 97,134."
Yes. This might work.
"Then, may I suggest something?"
"Please do."
"Don't spend any more points today. Tomorrow, you will get the opportunity to buy something great. And many people will bid for that. You will need every point you have."
"Huh? What is going to be sold tomorrow?"
"That, I can't reveal it to you yet. Ah. I forgot to introduce my older brother.
He is Horikita Manabu, the Student Council President."
I used the Student Council President, and the fact that I am his sister, to imply that I have some insider information.
"Huh!? Good morning Senpai! I am sorry I didn't notice you!"
"No worries."
Manabu said curtly, and otherwise, kept his mouth shut.
"Alright Horikita-san. I will not buy anything else today."
"Then, are you free today?"
"Hmm, yeah!"
"Can you please help me in selecting a good camera and other equipments?"
I know about computers as a B.Tech almost-graduate, but I don't know anything about cameras, mics and stuff.
"Of course!"
Then, Sotomura helped me in picking up a good camera, mic, tripod, speakers, headphones, recording equipments, and other accessories. I also picked up the most expensive laptop with the best specs and lifetime.
"Give your address, and we will have these delivered."
Hmm, Manabu can't carry these things. His hands and neck are already filled with bags.
The problem is, I don't know my dorm room yet.
"Can you just deliver them to the dorms, and call me beforehand? I don't know my room number yet."
"Of course, that can be done."
"Thank you."
"The total bill will be 340,000 points. Upfront."
I nodded, and looked at Manabu.
He paid for everything without any protest.
"Thank you for your help, Sotomura-kun. I will now head to the dorms."
"Hahaha! Much obliged."
Then, I headed to the dorms, and bought some more things in the convenience store on the way.
I spent around 540,000 points of Manabu, and I felt incredibly satisfied at that.
Finally, I arrived at my dorm room, and gestured Manabu to come in.
Time to extort more points from him.
