Part 37
***
Seo Hyun-woo and Baek Seo-yeon left the secretaries with Miterichi’s medical staff and went straight out of the building.
Security officers and members of the security department were already on the move and had settled down everywhere.
In addition, I could see Kang Jin-ha and some of the chiefs, and Kim Seong-tae was being dragged by security personnel with his body restrained with his form-based abilities.
“Ah, Chairman.”
Irev Kanasual is the first to find Seo Hyun-woo and shows off a bright smile.
Seo Hyun-woo gently nods his head and approaches the managers with Baek Seo-yeon.
“Is anyone injured?”
“I know it doesn’t. Does the president know how this happened?”
When Jin Se-hee asks a question, Kang Jin-ha and the managers wait for Seo Hyun-woo to open his mouth.
It was good to catch Kim Seong-tae, but he didn’t know about the events that happened before that.
The window from which Kim Seong-tae came out was also on the side of the secretary’s office, so I thought it might have a lot to do with Seo Hyun-woo or Baek Seo-yeon.
“There was a spy in the secretariat. I was secretly stealing information and caught by the secretary. In the process, the secretary almost died, and me and the vice president barely saved the secretary.”
“Is there a spy in the secretariat?”
“So you ran out the window?”
“Is the secretary okay?”
“It’s okay. I have to rest now, so the medical staff are taking care of me.”
Seo Hyun-woo answers Irev’s question and immediately turns his gaze to Kang Jin-ha.
As expected, Jinha Kang was standing there without any injuries.
Kang Jin-ha was strong enough and continued to grow.
Above all else, because he was the main character, there were hardly any defeats or injuries.
“Good work. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have caught him.”
“… no. I just did what I had to do.”
Jin-ha Kang responds modestly, but feels a small echo from within.
Perhaps Seo Hyun-woo also saw himself fighting for a while.

Most of all, it is the words of the strongest in the school, so maybe it feels even more special.“Today’s incident is likely to be dealt with closely at tomorrow’s ordinance meeting. It would be better for you to think ahead of time of follow-up measures.”
“Hmm…”
“One more thing to do.”
“The security department is probably the busiest.”
At Irev’s words, the managers nodded their heads silently.
Perhaps it would increase the workload of not only the Ministry of Security, but also the Ministry of Security.
Because the students of Miterich were involved, they had to be directly connected with the two departments responsible for internal security in Miterich.
In addition, there has been a case recently reported of a student who mutated into a monster, so the focus would be on the investigation of the students’ personalities.
“It was too late. Now, go back to your dorm.”
“Who is the president?”
“I have to go make sure this is sorted out. Then we’ll see you at the ordinance meeting tomorrow.”
Seo Hyun-woo quickly turned his back and walked towards the student council.
Baek Seo-yeon follows Seo Hyun-woo with an indifferent expression on her face.
Jin-ha Kang and the managers looked at each other and then moved without a word.
‘… As expected, the vice-president is also there.’
After a while, Irev stops and turns his head.
Seo Hyun-woo and Baek Seo-yeon’s back were visible at least a little.
They probably wouldn’t come out of the student council even after sunset.
‘That’s why I want the vice-president position. You can always go with the president, right? If you want to win the president’s heart, it’s always good to be by your side.’

Inside the student council president’s office.
Seo Hyun-woo was sitting on a chair and staring blankly at the ceiling.
After the case was over, several hunters belonging to the committee came to Miterichi.
It was to investigate the crime scene, gather evidence, and secure testimony.
It was originally supposed to be the job of the police, but the Commission intervened directly because the Awoken were involved.
‘The secretary’s office is closed, and there is only one secretary left to work. For the time being, will Baek Seo-yeon and I have to take over the secretary job?’
Seo Hyun-woo thinks it’s cumbersome, but feels rewarding in his own way.
Didn’t he save the two secretaries who had no choice but to die?
One was resting in the medical room, but was expected to return in at least a week.
Above all, the fact that the possibility of Baek Seo-yeon’s condition worsening was eliminated the most.
‘This was something that even Kang Jin-ha couldn’t solve. But from Kang Jin-ha’s point of view, it wouldn’t mean much. Because Baek Seo-yeon has a low proportion among the heroines.’
It was a conclusion based on the realistic part, not the emotional part.
Low weight also meant that the probability of appearing in or affecting the main content was low.
In fact, Baek Seo-yeon only appeared frequently in the first half, and even in the middle part, did not its presence fade?
‘In some ways, it might be a good choice to bring Baek Seo-yeon to me. Among the heroines, the only people who can be said to be stronger than Baek Seo-yeon are the head of the pseudo-cult and the white saint. Oh no. I think the teacher is similar to Baek Seo-yeon.’
Seo Hyun-woo measures the skills of the heroines while immersed in trouble.

Min Ha-young and Lee Da-jeong were on the strong side, but there was a sense of being buried by Kang Jin-ha.Si-eun Yoo was stronger, but he was weak to the members of Rebellion, so it should be considered as a weakness.
Lastly, the white saint mainly dealt with combat support abilities, so I thought she was a little weak on the battle side.
‘Still, the white saint is Setinos Hunter, isn’t it stronger than Baek Seo-yeon? It’s not that I can’t fight at all…’
smart.
Baek Seo-yeon enters the student council president’s office with a knock.
Seo Hyun-woo had been waiting for him for a while because he was coming after cleaning up the vice-student council president’s office.
Seo Hyun-woo looked at Baek Seo-yeon and found that he hid both hands behind his back and opened his mouth immediately.
“What are you hiding?”
“Ah, this is that… that…”
Baek Seo-yeon tries to avoid Seo Hyun-woo’s gaze and stutters.
Seo Hyun-woo has a strong curiosity about Baek Seo-yeon’s behavior, but just watches.
Baek Seo-yeon glances at Seo Hyeon-woo and then approaches the desk.
“First of all, please do not misunderstand. It seemed that it would not be possible to give it other than today. However, I thought about it a lot because it didn’t seem like something I could give it to later.”
“…why are you making it so difficult to say you want to give me a birthday present?”
“…”
Silence began to spread inside the student council president’s room.
Baek Seo-yeon can’t stand the shyness that slowly comes and closes her eyes tightly.
Seo Hyun-woo enjoys Baek Seo-yeon’s reaction a little, but barely puts up with a smile.
“Who… do you know how I came up with this?”
“I know. Maybe you were going to give it to me today. It seems a little conspicuous to give it on your birthday, and it’s a little unclear to give it after that. But today, an accident happened during the school day, how embarrassing.”
“I have nothing to say. Now that it has come to pass, I will make it easy for you.”
Baek Seo-yeon seems to hesitate for a moment, then puts the box hidden behind her back on the desk.
Seo Hyun-woo looks down at the wrapped birthday present and does not move at all.
Baek Seo-yeon, who saw this, could not stand the frustration and opened her mouth first.
“What are you doing?”
“I was thinking about convention.”
“… Knowing that, why did you give me a birthday present?”
“It’s literally just custom. It is not a rule that must be followed. Also, didn’t you receive the gift without saying anything back then?”
There was a custom that was not in the regulations among the executives of the student council.
The custom was that each person did not bring greetings or gifts, even if they had something worth celebrating or celebrating.
They were colleagues performing similar tasks, but they could be relegated at any time, so it should be seen as a sign of keeping a minimum distance.
“You gave it knowingly, how can you refuse?”
“I am thinking the same thing as you. Now that we each have a secret, let’s keep it quiet. Can I check it now?”
“Yes, it doesn’t matter.”
Seo Hyun-woo quickly grabbed the gift box and began to open the wrapping paper.
As the size of the box was small, the items inside would be quite small.
I wondered if there was something that could be decorated like the hairpin he gave me.
“What is this? They don’t look like earrings…”
Seo Hyun-woo takes out the ornaments in the box and looks closely.
A small indigo jewel was embedded beyond the gold-plated rim.
However, there was only one side, and there was no string, so it could not be regarded as an earring or necklace.
“It’s a brooch. I don’t know if you’ll like it, but I picked a color and design that would suit the president.”
“It’s not bad. It’s not a very striking color, and it would look good on a uniform.”
Seo Hyun-woo immediately fiddled with the brooch and tried to attach it to his uniform.
However, it was the first time I used it, and it did not work as expected due to careful handling.
Baek Seo-yeon, who saw it, showed a faint smile and walked up to Seo Hyun-woo.
“There are some things that even the president can’t do.”
“…I’ve always wondered, why do you think I’ll be good at anything?”
“Because you’re really good at anything.”
Baek Seo-yeon takes the brooch in Seo Hyun-woo’s hand and easily removes the fixed pin.
Then, after putting it on Seo Hyun-woo’s collar a few times, he started to put the brooch in the right place.
Seo Hyun-woo swallows silence and just watches Baek Seo-yeon’s actions.
I thought the scent of Baek Seo-yeon’s perfume was more intense.
“It’s done. Would you like to check it out for yourself? It looks pretty good to me.”
At Baek Seo-yeon’s words, Seo Hyun-woo nodded and stood straight in front of the full-length mirror.
On the left collar of the uniform was a brooch with indigo jewels.
It seemed that the existence of the brooch would not be easily recognized without the gold border.
“If you don’t look closely, you won’t even know there is a brooch.”
“If it’s too bright or flashy, it doesn’t match the mood of the president. It’s going to be too conspicuous.”
“If this is enough, there will be no problems with the regulations. Don’t make it good.”
Seo Hyun-woo prepares to go out with an empty box.
Baek Seo-yeon glances at Seo Hyun-woo from time to time and checks the brooch on her collar.
Somehow I felt regretful, but I wondered if I didn’t choose well in my own way.
‘You don’t seem to like it very much. Don’t like brooches? Or are you not comfortable with what happened before? Well…’
***
It had been about three days since the accident at the secretary’s office.
Under the special direction of the president, a re-investigation of all students and staff was conducted, and the Ministry of Security and the Ministry of Security were the busiest.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Managers had to check every member’s personal information in order to comply with the separately added regulations.Seo Hyeon-woo and Baek Seo-yeon were preparing to deliver the reports to the administration after organizing the reports they received from the department heads.
“Then all departments except the security department have been checked.”
Seo Hyun-woo covers the file folder and glances at the inside of the conference room.
Needless to say, as always, Min Ha-young and Lee Da-jeong were nowhere to be seen.
However, there was no need to forcefully attend the meeting because the instructions were being carried out well.
“But it’s not over yet. There may be shortcomings in the report, and the administration may separately point out. It would be better to prepare in advance.”
Seo Hyun-woo said that and immediately tried to get up.
At the same time, Irev Kanasuel raises his hand and catches the attention of the managers.
“Why?”
“Can I ask you a personal question? It’s a trivial question, but you seem to be busy all this time, so I noticed a little bit.”
“… do it.”
“Sometimes you have been wearing a brooch, did you receive it as a gift?”
At Irev’s words, the managers’ eyes turned directly to Seo Hyun-woo.
The managers had already noticed the existence of the brooch.
Of course, like Irev, I was a little curious, but because of the situation, I was trying to pretend I didn’t know.
“It is true that it was a gift. I can’t afford this.”
“I think a close friend gave it to me as a present. Do you get along pretty well?”
“Do you see that? Maybe it was because it was a gift from my girlfriend.”
