Feeling a little uncomfortable under Shinji Kaminaga's gaze, Shiina Mahiru rubbed her delicate white hands together.

"Um, why are you looking at me like that?"

"I'm starting to believe what Yukinoshita said; Kaminaga's eyes do have a lecherous look on them, and he seems to have ulterior motives!"

Upon hearing this, Shinji Kaminaga curled his lip and said with displeasure, "Shiina-kun, that's slander!"

"Please take a good look at my face. I'm so handsome that I don't need to do anything extra to seduce girls. I'm just looking at them with admiration."

"Furthermore, we're discussing how to increase the club's visibility right now, so please stop staring at my lecherous eyes."

"I'm looking at you because I think you're the one in our club who's best suited for publicity."

"In this club, besides Xiaoxiao who has friends in class, you, my angel, are the most popular."

"As long as you're willing to introduce it to others, our club's name will quickly spread throughout the school, and then we'll just have to wait for people to come and commission us."

Upon hearing this, Shiina Mahiru realized she had misunderstood. She looked at him shyly and lowered her head to apologize.

"Sorry, I misunderstood you, but—I'm not some angel, don't give me such an embarrassing nickname!"

Shinji Kaminaga smiled and explained earnestly, "This isn't a nickname I gave you; it's what everyone else secretly calls you. That shows how popular you are. Anyway, I'll leave the publicity to you. As for us, we'll just sit back and wait for your news."

Shinji Kaminaga's words left Mahiru Shiina speechless.

"Isn't it too much to leave me to do all the work alone?"

"I'll also help with the promotion, Shiina-kun, let's do our best together."

Nishimiya Shoko smiled and took over the conversation, even offering her a word of encouragement.

Shiina Mahiru nodded helplessly, then couldn't help but look at Shinji Kaminaga and Yukino Yukinoshita.

"What about you, Kaminaga? You yourself said you're handsome, so you'd be perfect for promotions, wouldn't you?"

"And Yukinoshita-san, with your looks, if you just spoke softly like Nishimiya-san, you'd definitely be super popular!"

After saying that, Yukino Yukinoshita and Shinji Kaminaga exchanged a glance and both coughed awkwardly.

Nishimiya Shoko couldn't help but laugh out loud. She leaned close to Shiina Mahiru's ear and whispered, "It's better not to let these two build relationships with others. Yukino has been ostracized since she was a child because she is too outstanding and has an unconventional personality. She has a psychological trauma from being targeted, so she is not good at publicity."

"As for Kaminaga, to be honest, his face is just too handsome, so Yukino and I don't allow him to talk to girls."

"You're in the same class as Kaminaga, so you must have noticed that he's not popular with the boys. Almost no boys talk to him."

Hearing this, Shiina Mahiru finally understood why Shinji Kaminaga and Yukino Yukinoshita were somewhat embarrassed by her question.

It turns out that both of them have mild social anxiety, are not good at communicating, and are the type who are envied and easily ostracized.

But wouldn't that highlight their advantage?

With a smile, Shiina Mahiru patted her ample chest and said earnestly, "Leave the publicity to me. I'll do my best to let everyone know about our club!"

Upon hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita breathed a sigh of relief and solemnly grasped Shiina Mahiru's small hand.

"Please, Shiina-kun!"

Entrusted with an important task, Shiina Mahiru was in a very good mood, and her smile became even brighter.

After finalizing the publicity details, Shiina Mahiru was full of energy.

After lunch break, she returned to the classroom and talked to a few girls she got along with about club activities.

"Hey, Shiina-san, you joined the club founded by Yukinoshita-san?"

Kagome Higurashi, Sherry, and Naomi Watanabe all stared in astonishment at the glittering Shiina Mahiru, their eyes filled with surprise.

Naomi Watanabe, in particular, felt extremely resentful.

As the class monitor, she wanted to get along well with Yukino Yukinoshita, but Yukino Yukinoshita didn't give her any face at all and directly refused to join the class chat group, which made her so sad that she cried for a while.

Faced with the questioning gazes of her three friends, Shiina Mahiru smiled and nodded.

"Yes, it's called the Special Events Observation Club. I thought it was interesting, so I joined."

"Actually, Yukinoshita is very easy to get along with and is a very nice person. She's just not good at socializing. Once you get to know her, you'll find that she's really outstanding."

Naomi Watanabe pursed her lips. Being excellent doesn't mean you can look down on others.

However, she only dared to mutter it to herself and didn't dare to say it out loud.

Kagome Higurashi and Sherry both looked interested.

"What happened? Shiina, why are you praising Yukinoshita like that? And, it seems like Kaminaga is in Yukinoshita's club too."

Shirley gossiped, poking Shiina Mahiru's arm with her little hand, "Shiina, you wouldn't happen to have a crush on Kaminaga-kun and want to steal him from Yukinoshita, would you?"

"Oh, no, that's not true at all. Kaminaga-kun is also my friend. We're just ordinary friends!"

With a blush creeped up her face, Shiina Mahiru glanced hastily in the direction of Yukino Yukinoshita and Shinji Kaminaga, and quickly waved her hand to explain.

Shirley gave her a deep look and said meaningfully, "We're just ordinary friends now, but who knows what will happen in the future? People can be attracted to each other."

Strong men are often more likely to win the favor of cute girls and attract special girls.

"Well, we're really just ordinary friends. I just wanted to let you know that I've joined Yukinoshita's club. If you or anyone you know encounters anything strange, please be sure to come to our club room for help."

"No problem, we'll let you know if anything happens. We're also quite curious about that special event, but does it include paranormal events?"

Shirley continued to ask questions out of curiosity.

Kagome Higurashi rolled her eyes, looking completely uninterested.

The reason is simple: her family runs a shrine, and her grandfather, as the head priest, treats a bunch of strange, junk items as treasures and worships them all day long.

A week ago, she somehow got hold of a black hand, saying it was the hand of a kappa and had cursed power, but she fed the hand to the cat and didn't find any curse.

Grandpa cried for a long time afterward and even scolded her for being a spendthrift.

Yesterday, Grandpa said he was preparing for a festival to enhance the shrine's atmosphere, so he bought a whole bunch of glass beads, saying they were the legendary "Shikon Jewel," and that people who wore them would have the chance to have their wishes granted. He then sold them.

Kagome Higurashi, thinking of her charlatan grandfather, lost all interest in those supernatural and ghostly things.

Ignoring the uninterested Kagome Higurashi, Shiina Mahiru earnestly answered Sherry's question, "Of course, paranormal events count! If you have any information, or if anyone you know has encountered one, you can come to us for an investigation!"

Upon hearing this, Shirley nodded seriously.

"I understand. If I find anything, I'll let you know immediately so I can support your club activities!"
