Report 126

Plot
Arata confronts Ryō for proposing him for the executive committee, as he already has retests to worry about. In front of the group Ryō uses the excuse that as Arata's grades are bad, he would benefit from the committee position as a merit for university admissions. The other boys pick up on this, commending Arata for doing it for himself but also eager to have someone else take up the duties, and he ends up being elected and suspicious about Ryō's real motives. As Chizuru finds out that Arata is also in the committee, she expresses disgust as she expects him to be useless.

Afterwards Ryō and An talk in the hallway. The reason Chizuru volunteered turned out to be that she wanted to redeem herself for losing her position as class representative. Ryō is happy that they got the result they wanted, however An is distressed for not being able to predict Chizuru acting as she did. Ryō then receives a phone call from an irritated Arata, who is suspecting Ryō and An conspired to have him and Chizuru work together in the committee. Ryō manages to easily cover up the plan because Chizuru volunteered on her own accord, which gives Arata a shock as he thinks that Chizuru volunteered to be his partner.
