Chapter 1649
Haru sat down on the chair, looked at Miboumi, then asked, "Still, even if you're able to have a gamble with me, if you want the position of the student council present, it is too small, or rather, that "housepet" tag is useless, but of course, if you want to do a gamble for something else, then it is a different matter."
After all, even though Miboumi had a chance to gamble with him, it was impossible to gamble without a bet.
Miboumi wanted the position of student council president, but if he lost, should he pay nothing?
Of course not, right?
So Miboumi also needed to place a bet so it would be fair.
"I don't think so."
Miboumi then took all the "house students" tags that he had gotten then put it all on the table and from the number alone, it almost reached a hundred, and each of them had a variety of debts, from the smallest was 500 thousand yen to the highest was 300 million yen.
Haru shook his head and said, "It's not enough."
"……"
Miboumi, who was full of confidence, smiled, frowned, and asked, "What do you want?"
"Do you think that the worth of the student council president seat of the Hyakkou Academy is something that can be exchanged with bad debts?" Haru looked at Miboum with an amused expression.
If the "housepet" students could pay their debts, then they wouldn't become a "house pet," and it was because they couldn't pay their debts that they become a "house pet."
One of the hardest things as a banker was to get their money back from the one who borrowed their money.
In this case, the Hyakkou Academy had become a banker, and those "housepet" students were the borrowers. In truth, the Hyakkou Academy was still better than the loan shark since the interest of their debts was quite normal, unlike loan sharks that could turn debt into a double or triple with just a few months of time.
In the Hyakkou Academy, the members of the student councils didn't do that, and they also had prepared a way for those "housepet" students to pay their debts.
"Then, use this."
Miboumi pulled a metal suitcase that was filled with money. He opened the suitcase, and there were 10 billion yen there.
"Not enough."
Haru shook his head and said, "You should know that the position of the student council president is like a stock, its worth increases over time."
Even though Miboumi didn't want to admit it, he also knew that Haru was right. "Then what do you want?"
Haru thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure." He looked at Kirari and asked, "Kirari, is there something that you want?"
"Hmm…"
Kirari put her finger on her beautiful lips and said, "Let's see, how about your ancestral house?"
"What?!"
The one who was shocked was not Miboumi, but Runa, after all, Miboumi's ancestral house was a house that had been inherited from a thousand years ago (of course, the condition is good, and it has been renovated several times, but it is very beautiful), and even though its worth might not be comparable to the skyscraper, it had a lot of history, and it had a lot of meaning, even if Haru and Kirari had money, it was quite impossible for them to buy Miboumi's ancestral house since Miboumi and his family wouldn't allow it, but…
"Yes."
Miboumi nodded and said, "I don't mind."
"Then, since the bet has been decided, what kind of gamble do you want to play?" Haru looked at Miboumi curiously, wondering what kind of gamble that Miboumi was going to play.
"This."
Miboumi took out two glasses and placed them on the table, then poured water on both glasses to the brim. He also then took out a jar that was filled with a lot of 100 yen coins. He looked at Haru and asked, "Do you know what surface tension is, Kasugano-kun?" His face showed a bright smile, staring at Haru.
"You should know that on the national exam, I'm the rank 1 from the entire country." Haru looked at Miboumi with a bored expression and said, "It's a force that keeps the water in the glass from flowing over. So what about it?"
"It's easy."
Miboumi looked at Haru and said, "We'll take turns putting those 100 yen coins into the glass. The one who spills the water loses." His expression turned into ridicule, and he said, "I'll wager all of those "housepet" tags, 10 billion yen, and my ancestral house for the position of the student council president, do you dare, Kasugano-kun?"
Haru didn't answer Miboumi directly and looked at Kirari since the position of the student council president wasn't his, but it was his fiancee's.
Kirari gave Haru a nod, and Haru also nodded at Miboumi's provocation. "Let's do this."
The student council room was quite bright at that moment since the window on the room was wide open, and the wind and the sunlight also entered the room, which caused the glasses that were brought by Miboumi to give a light luster and quite shiny, but it was normal since the glasses were made from glass.
However, in truth, Miboumi had placed a trick on the glasses that he had prepared before. It was quite simple, but his glass was quite special since it was longer than the other glass, and it could give a visual illusion that the water on his glass was on its brim, even though it wasn't.
On the other hand, Haru's glass was tampered with by Miboumi beforehand since it also gave a visual illusion where the glass was shorter and smaller on the volume, so with just one coin, it would cause the water to flow out from the glass.
However, Haru was a very strong gambler, and he might have a way to solve this problem, which was why Miboumi also prepared a lot of tricks, and he believed that he could win.
"Still, I didn't expect that you're going to ask such a simple gamble." Haru looked at Miboumi and said, "I thought that you want to do something like poker or something."
"No, the simpler it is, the better it is since I can become the student council president faster this way," Miboumi said with a smile.
"Being impatient isn't a good trait, you know?" Haru said.
Miboumi only smiled but didn't say anything. Still, inwardly, he snorted, thinking about what he would do after he had taken the position of the student council president, but more importantly, he was going to kick all of them from the position of the student council without hesitation.
Haru then looked at Runa and asked, "Runa, you've recorded all of that, right?"
"Yes."
Runa nodded and said, "We can start the gamble right away."
Haru looked at Miboumi and asked, "Should we sign a contract? Since you might pretend to be stupid if you lose."
"Hmph!"
Miboumi snorted, but he agreed.
Then the contract was made, and both of them agreed with all the conditions that they had talked about before.
"Let's start," Miboumi said.
Haru nodded and thought that one chapter should be enough to defeat the guy in front of him and taught him what real society was. He took the 100 yen coin from the jar and started the preparation of the gamble.
