The warm sun shone on the Executive Committee office, and a layer of platinum gold clouds covered Kanata's body.
Without the hindrance of a wide-brimmed hat, her beautiful appearance, a mix of Eastern and Western heritage, caught people's attention, and they undoubtedly admired her charm.
Kanata stretched, stood up from her chair with difficulty, and glanced at the electronic clock hanging on the wall.
The time displayed was already 11:30, which was almost lunchtime.
After greeting the other committee members in the office, Kanata put on her wide-brimmed hat, picked up an umbrella, closed the door, and walked toward the school cafeteria.
The food in Hagun Academy's cafeteria was all nutritious, but it all tasted terrible.
However, Kanata was different from the usual noble princess since she was a child. When most noble princesses were still hiding in their rooms, she secretly left home and wandered around her family's orphanage, befriending Touka.
Although she liked drinking black tea, she wasn't picky about her meals, so it didn't matter if she ate nutritious food... Mainly because she was lazy and didn't want to find a chef.
"What is that…?"
On her way to the cafeteria, Kanata suddenly saw two figures ahead arguing about something.
One of them was Kusakabe Kagami from the news agency. Kanata had helped her handle the application for setting up the agency on the first day of school.
At this moment, the two were hiding in the shade of a tree. Kagami was being pulled by her sleeve, and the other party was saying something angrily.
"Sold for 20,000 yen a set? Why don't you just rob me? How could Nangou-san allow such behavior!"
Because every time Hoshiharu received a love letter, he would go to meet them. Although he always refused, such behavior was considered "gentle" in the eyes of his fanatic fans!
Hearing a name she cared about, Kanata slightly halted her steps.
As a member of the student council, she initially had the duty to handle school disputes, but at this moment, she didn't step forward immediately. Instead, she lifted the hem of her skirt, moved her steps slightly, and hid in the corner of the building.
Kagami really wanted to say that this person had misunderstood Hoshiharu's character, but it was better not to ruin Hoshiharu's image here.
"You're saying this as if I'm not robbing you right now."
The other party was stunned upon hearing this.
A set of twelve photos sold for a high price of 20,000 yen. They weren't framed photos but just randomly packed in a plastic bag.
"Do you want them?"
"...There won't be any fakes or duplicates in it, right?"
"How many people have I sold to? Can I still cheat you?"
In the end, the other party reluctantly paid 20,000 yen and bought the photo set from Kagami.
"Hmph hum~ hum hum~"
Kusakabe skipped through the tree-covered area.
Another set sold, and her share was six thousand yen, which made her feel very satisfied.
On the other hand, the buyer holding the photos quietly put them away, then walked towards the dormitory pretending to be nonchalant.
It's serious to spend a lot of money to buy photos and take the time to appreciate them now.
"Student over there, it looks like I just saw you trading illegal goods?"
However, just as his mood gradually became happy, his eyes suddenly blurred again.
Kanata appeared in front of him.
'She's from the student council!'
"May I see the contents of the bag you received?"
Kanata extended her hand with a smile.
The other party could only cry with a face, taking out the photos from the bag with trembling hands, and handed them to Kanata with a limp expression.
Kanata took them and looked down.
"Very handsome!"
There was something strange in her eyes.
Usually, Hoshiharu basically didn't take care of himself. He always looked natural. Because of his high charm, he looked handsome even without grooming.
However, Hoshiharu in the photos had been groomed by skilled craftsmen, and the person taking the photos seemed to be an expert, showcasing the charm of a super handsome boy in all aspects like a model, which looked very visually impactful.
Driven by instinct, Kanata flipped through the pages.
Only after she saw them all did she suddenly come back to her senses.
She was here to inspect illegal transactions, not to admire Hoshiharu's photos.
"Confiscated."
Kanata smiled with dignity and put all the photos into her pocket.
The buyer suddenly turned pale and left in frustration.
It was over. Not only did he have to eat pickles and porridge for the next month, but he also lost the treasure he had worked so hard to obtain.
"I got something good."
Kanata was in a cheerful mood.
Although her feelings towards Hoshiharu were relatively average, things that caught attention were worth the attention, so there was no need to bother with oneself in such matters.
"As a member of the student council, I have the authority to keep illegal items. I'm doing this for the school atmosphere, not for myself… Um, that's right."
With this thought, Kanata walked out of the corner of the building and quickly caught up in the direction where Kagami had gone.
"But then again, this guy is so popular, do even boys buy his photos?"
The buyer earlier was a boy.
It's really unusual for a guy to buy photos like this, isn't it?

"Hoshiharu-san, here are your earnings for today!"
Kagami and Hoshiharu met and exchanged a stack of Fukuzawa Yukichi.
"The total is one million yen, please sign!"
"Sure!"
Hoshiharu smiled brightly, with his back teeth showing.
Sure enough, although he didn't have the talent to make money himself and wouldn't pay for anything he did, as long as he acted as a hands-off shopkeeper and let others make money and invest for himself, it wasn't impossible to make money.
The main reason was that the number of people in Hagun Academy was too few, and most students couldn't afford to spend a lot of money. Besides, since it was illegal goods, they often worried during transactions. Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to have only one million in five days.
According to the previous agreement, Hoshiharu gave Kagami a share of 300,000 yen. She had contributed a lot in this matter and should have a large income.
"Hoshiharu-san, when will we take the second set of photos?"
Kagami received her share and looked at him expectantly.
"Just wait another month."
Hoshiharu thought for a moment.
Seven hundred thousand yen was enough to use for a long time, and the first batch of photos hadn't fully fermented yet, and there was still room to squeeze... Mainly because of the laziness throughout the day to take a good set of photos. He also had to do makeup and change clothes, which was very troublesome.
It's a pity that there's no rich woman willing to take care of him.
