1. Searching for the Good Bunny Club

18 lines
Awakener

Is this the place where the Good Bunny Club is?

Vera

I was here before..

Rhaina

What do you mean? The Good Bunny Club is moving?

Vera

Sure!

Vera remembers, it's like the saying goes, 'a crafty hare has three burrows', meaning the Good Bunny Club will have plenty of secret meeting spots!

If everyone is not here now, they must have gone somewhere else.

Awakener

Hold on, someone is coming.

The crisp sound of footsteps came from not far away.

Ludmera

Sorry, I'm late.

What?

Teacher?

Awakener

Ludmera, and... Snezhana?

Snezhana

Awakener, what brought you here?

Ludmera

Call the teacher.

Snezhana

Got it, teacher!

Awakener

I am investigating the Good Bunny Club, also known as the Bunny Girl Enthusiasts Association.

Are you also a member of the Good Bunny Club?

Snezhana

Well, this..

2. Rhaina's Invitation

41 lines
Snezhana

The Student Union was previously looking into the Good Bunny Club. Since neither of us had joined any clubs before, we decided to join it for investigation.

We have almost gathered all the basic information about Good Bunny Club... To be honest, it's quite surprising.

Awakener

Accident?

Snezhana

Actually, Good Bunny Club has applied to the student union for official club status, but it was rejected.

Rhaina

Why is that?

Awakener

Is it because it disrupted the school discipline?

Snezhana

No, the reason for the Student Union's investigation is that the college already has a service department. Besides the fact that the members of this department dress in maid outfits, there is no significant difference between their club events and those from the Good Bunny Club.

Ludmera

Maids and bunny girls look pretty similar, wouldn't it be nice if you two were together?

, That's what the Student Union said.

Snezhana

The Good Bunny Club believes that being a bunny girl and being a maid are two completely different things. Whether it's the attire or the style of hospitality, they see them as entirely different and are unwilling to merge them into the service-oriented department.

Ludmera

You bet I'll punish anyone who underestimates the bunny girls!

, That's what the Good Bunny Club Minister said.

Snezhana

Thus, the Good Bunny Club turned into an underground organization.

By the way, it's the members of the Disciplinary Committee who are the most disruptive.

Ludmera

Teacher, what are you looking at...

Awakener

Cough, cough, cough! ... There's no need to talk about the Disciplinary Committee!

Awakener

So, the reason why the Good Bunny Club turned into an underground organization is because of the Student Union. And that's also why they can't directly step in.

If that's the case, then the Good Bunny Club might be the best solution.

Rhaina

Forget about the Good Bunny Club for now, it's Ludmera and Snezhana, right?

Rhaina

The Good Bunny Club is an underground organization. It seems like you girls haven't joined any official clubs yet.

Would you like to join my Pirate Club?

We're not like other clubs. Besides recognizing me as the captain, we're incredibly laid-back!

Snezhana

Pirate Club, let's consider it.

Rhaina

Is there still a need for consideration? Vera!

Vera

Captain, Vera is here.

Rhaina

Let these newcomers witness the power of the Pirate Club!

Awakener

Strength?

Rhaina!!!

How did you end up fighting with the person you invited again!

Snezhana, Ludmera, are you two okay?

Snezhana

I'm...hurt...

Rhaina

When I invited Vera, I roughed her up a bit. If I invite others without giving them the same treatment, wouldn't that be unfair to Vera?

I am indeed a fair captain!

Vera

Captain! So handsome!

Rhaina

As a dragon, Vera'S performance just now was quite impressive!

Vera

Hehe..

Awakener

How could anyone possibly join the Pirate Club like this..

Ludmera

I'm in.

Awakener

What?

3. Join the Pirate Club

23 lines
Ludmera

Joining the Pirate Club requires a beating, and I've already taken the beating. If I don't join the Pirate Club, then this beating would have been for nothing.

That's what Snezhana thinks.

Snezhana

I didn't think so!

But what you said makes sense... Indeed, if we don't join in, we're just taking a beating for nothing.

I'll join as well.

Rhaina

Great! The Pirate Club welcomes both of you!

Awakener

...

Could it be that there's something wrong with my thinking?

Snezhana

However, I have a question.

Rhaina

What's the question?

Snezhana

Next time when a newcomer joins, can I take a swing at her?

Rhaina

Captain Rhaina is indeed very fair!

However, there is still one thing you need to do.

Ludmera

Is it a good thing?

Rhaina

Well, it could be considered a reward, as the teacher personally took charge of the healing.

I remember the teacher's massage service was quite expensive.

Ludmera

Indeed, that is a reward.

Teacher.

Awakener

Hm...

Ludmera

Thank you.

I feel much better now!

Snezhana

It's my turn!

Come heal me now!

4. Top of the Heap

22 lines
Snezhana

Feeling rejuvenated..

Awakener

That's a bit too much, Snezhana.

Well, this way, the Pirate Club has enough members to meet the minimum requirement for forming a club.

Snezhana

Minimum standard?

I remember the Pirate Club as the head of the three major underground organizations, right? Were there only two members before?

Awakener

I also find it strange why the News Department would let the Pirate Club become the head of the three major underground organizations.

Rhaina

Is this difficult to understand?

Rankings are something that will be recognized as long as you have the strength.

Awakener

No, the club rankings are based on overall capabilities. Generally, the more members there are, the stronger the overall abilities. The News Department must have a reason for your ranking.

Rhaina

Yes, comprehensive ability, combat ability is also a part of the comprehensive ability.

Ever since I gave the News Department a good beating, the Pirate Club has always been number one.

Awakener

So that's how it is, you beat up someone from the News Department. Now it makes sense.

Rhaina

Right.

Awakener

It's understandable why you can't recruit anyone by yourself.

Hm...

Wait a minute, according to the News Department, the top three underground organizations are the Pirate Club founded by Rhaina, followed by the Student Club, which has received assistance from the News Department, and then there's the Good Bunny Club...

Snezhana

There should be no connections between the Good Bunny Club and the News Department.

I remember that the Minister of the Good Bunny Club had quite a few criticisms towards the News Department.

Ludmera

At least eighty percent of those who joined the underground organization from the entire Sakura Academy are members of the Bunny Girl Enthusiasts Association. Yet, we are only ranked second in the underground organization? There must be some underhanded dealings behind this ranking!

, That's what the Good Bunny Club Minister said.

Rhaina

Don't bother with that useless News Department anymore. Since we have enough people now, we can go ahead and apply to establish our own club!

Awakener

Let's head to the Student Union then.

5. The Changing Ludmera

17 lines

On the way to the Student Union.

Ludmera

Teacher? Is there something on my face?

You have been secretly looking at me.

Awakener

Looks like you caught me.

No worries, it's just that you come across a bit differently than I imagined.

Ludmera

Is it because I've been constantly repeating what others say?

Awakener

Yes?

Ludmera

I'm not good at summarizing. Directly quoting others' words would be more efficient.

This is a principle I learned in school.

Awakener

I see...

Snezhana

What are you two whispering about? We're almost at the Student Union, you know.

Awakener

Just a normal chit-chat.

Alright, enough with the small talk, it's time to address the issue at hand.

Rhaina, the Pirate Club already has enough members, but to become an official club, we need to host an event.

Rhaina

There's no need for the teacher to worry about this.

I have already decided on the event I want to host.

Awakener

Great!

6. Student Union Clues

31 lines

The members of the Pirate Club completed the application for the Pirate Club in the Student Union office.

Niz

As expected of a teacher, you've managed to help the Pirate Club gather four members in such a short time.

I believe the three major underground organizations will soon become official clubs with the help of the teacher.

Awakener

There's no need to flatter me, I haven't done anything.

Is there a problem with the application form for the Pirate Club?

Niz

No problem, this is indeed the simplest step.

Plus, everyone who signed the application is at the event. I see no reason to reject its approval.

However, to become an official club, the Pirate Club needs to hold a club event.

Are you ready?

Awakener

Club events... I'm afraid I can't give you an answer on that.

I am a teacher, this issue should be resolved by the Pirate Club.

Niz

So, you're still here. Do you have any questions for me?

Awakener

My task is to resolve all issues related to the underground organization and the Pirate Club. Next up are the other underground organizations.

For instance, the Student Club.

Someone told me that the News Department was originally an underground organization, and it was with the help of the Student Club that it became a formal club.

Niz

Do you suspect that the Student Club is part of the Student Union?

Awakener

As far as I know, the rankings of the underground organization in the News Department are completely arbitrarily, with no basis whatsoever.

Rhaina can become the head of the three major underground organizations by threatening the News Department to favor the Pirate Club, and of course, the Student Union can do the same.

I just can't understand the reason behind your actions.

Niz

Of course you can't understand, because the Student Club has nothing to do with the Student Union.

In fact, among the three major underground organizations, we have not obtained any intel from the Student Club.

You know the rumors about the Student Club, right? We once assigned people to monitor those old suggestion boxes located in blind spots all day long. We have records of every person who dropped a letter into the suggestion box.

Surprisingly, none of us noticed when the letter in the suggestion box disappeared.

Awakener

Disappeared?

Niz

Right, we also had our own people mingling among those who submitted letters and raised some minor issues.

We originally thought everything was under control, but after three days of monitoring, those minor issues were resolved.

The person in charge of surveillance at the time couldn't believe it, someone had smashed open the suggestion box through brute force...

There is nothing inside.

Awakener

...

Niz

Why aren't you surprised at all?

Awakener

Because I think I know who did it.

7. Pirate Manifesto

Passerby Student

Who is that.....

Is she going to jump off the building?

Even if it's a Case, jumping from such height can be really risky, don't you think?

On the school rooftop, there's a figure sitting at the edge, with nine big characters spray-painted behind her.

The Pirate Club welcomes new members.

Rhaina

It took me quite an effort spraying those characters... I actually feel nostalgic about it.

Vera

Captain... Are we really going to do this?

Rhaina

Of course, my mighty dragon.

This is the end of the old era, and it should be so.

Rhaina stands up from the edge of the rooftop, pulling out a horn.

Rhaina

I am Rhaina! The leader of the three major underground organizations - the Minister of the Pirate Club!

Starting from today! The Underground Pirate Club!

Rhaina draws her weapon, taking aim at the symbols she had once painstakingly drawn.

Rhaina

Officially disbanded!

The symbol and text representing the Pirate Club are covered by spray paint sprayed.

Rhaina

Wanna hear the secret of how I became the head of the underground organization? Looking to reach the top of the campus hierarchy?

If you want, I'll give them all to you!

Go find it, the treasures of the Pirate Club, I've put everything you want there!

8. Worries

11 lines

Niz held a newspaper from the News Department in her hand. The headline read, 'The Treasure of the Legendary Underground Pirate Club.'

Niz

Rhaina really knows how to cause trouble..

Is this also one of your suggestions?

Awakener

I said the Pirate Club's affairs should be handled internally. I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

Niz

What exactly is the so-called treasure?

Awakener

The reasons why the Pirate Club became the leader of the three major underground organizations, as well as the subsidies provided to the Pirate Club by the school, in detail.

If the Pirate Club becomes an official club, the club's classroom will also be included.

Niz

Do you really have no suggestions?

Awakener

This is Rhaina's idea. Don't forget that, besides being the Minister of the Pirate Club, she is also the assistant you arranged for me.

Niz

I hope you can reach your goals.

Awakener

Certainly.

Snezhana

Should the treasure... be placed here?

Rhaina

Is there any problem here?

Snezhana

A campus horror story takes place around here, are you sure it's okay?

Rhaina

Rest assured! There's no problem.

???

Who goes there?!

Snezhana

That's the Good Bunny Club Minister, who is very capable. Why would he be here?!

Rhaina

Seems like this is one of their secret bases, and it's precisely for this reason that I've placed the treasure here.

Rhaina

A treasure hunt is no fun without a few enemies thrown in the mix, right?

Snezhana

It seems like the enemy has found us!

Rhaina

How troublesome!

Snezhana

You drove away the Good Bunny Club Minister, is there no enemy left in the treasure hunt?

Rhaina

She will come back.

Snezhana

Are you hiding something?

Rhaina

Let's deal with the treasure first. We can talk about the rest later.

Ludmera

Teacher? Is there something on my face?

You have been secretly looking at me.

Awakener

Looks like you caught me.

No worries, it's just that you come across a bit differently than I imagined.

Ludmera

Is it because I've been constantly repeating what others say?

Awakener

Yes?

Ludmera

I'm not good at summarizing. Directly quoting others' words would be more efficient.

This is a principle I learned in school.

Awakener

I see...

Snezhana

What are you two whispering about? We're almost at the Student Union, you know.

Awakener

Just a normal chit-chat.

Alright, enough with the small talk, it's time to address the issue at hand.

Rhaina, the Pirate Club already has enough members, but to become an official club, we need to host an event.

Rhaina

There's no need for the teacher to worry about this.

I have already decided on the event I want to host.

Awakener

Great!

21. Student Union Clues

Side story ยท 31 lines

The members of the Pirate Club completed the application for the Pirate Club in the Student Union office.

Niz

As expected of a teacher, you've managed to help the Pirate Club gather four members in such a short time.

I believe the three major underground organizations will soon become official clubs with the help of the teacher.

Awakener

There's no need to flatter me, I haven't done anything.

Is there a problem with the application form for the Pirate Club?

Niz

No problem, this is indeed the simplest step.

Plus, everyone who signed the application is at the event. I see no reason to reject its approval.

However, to become an official club, the Pirate Club needs to hold a club event.

Are you ready?

Awakener

Club events... I'm afraid I can't give you an answer on that.

I am a teacher, this issue should be resolved by the Pirate Club.

Niz

So, you're still here. Do you have any questions for me?

Awakener

My task is to resolve all issues related to the underground organization and the Pirate Club. Next up are the other underground organizations.

For instance, the Student Club.

Someone told me that the News Department was originally an underground organization, and it was with the help of the Student Club that it became a formal club.

Niz

Do you suspect that the Student Club is part of the Student Union?

Awakener

As far as I know, the rankings of the underground organization in the News Department are completely arbitrarily, with no basis whatsoever.

Rhaina can become the head of the three major underground organizations by threatening the News Department to favor the Pirate Club, and of course, the Student Union can do the same.

I just can't understand the reason behind your actions.

Niz

Of course you can't understand, because the Student Club has nothing to do with the Student Union.

In fact, among the three major underground organizations, we have not obtained any intel from the Student Club.

You know the rumors about the Student Club, right? We once assigned people to monitor those old suggestion boxes located in blind spots all day long. We have records of every person who dropped a letter into the suggestion box.

Surprisingly, none of us noticed when the letter in the suggestion box disappeared.

Awakener

Disappeared?

Niz

Right, we also had our own people mingling among those who submitted letters and raised some minor issues.

We originally thought everything was under control, but after three days of monitoring, those minor issues were resolved.

The person in charge of surveillance at the time couldn't believe it, someone had smashed open the suggestion box through brute force...

There is nothing inside.

Awakener

...

Niz

Why aren't you surprised at all?

Awakener

Because I think I know who did it.

Passerby Student

Who is that.....

Is she going to jump off the building?

Even if it's a Case, jumping from such height can be really risky, don't you think?

On the school rooftop, there's a figure sitting at the edge, with nine big characters spray-painted behind her.

The Pirate Club welcomes new members.

Rhaina

It took me quite an effort spraying those characters... I actually feel nostalgic about it.

Vera

Captain... Are we really going to do this?

Rhaina

Of course, my mighty dragon.

This is the end of the old era, and it should be so.

Rhaina stands up from the edge of the rooftop, pulling out a horn.

Rhaina

I am Rhaina! The leader of the three major underground organizations - the Minister of the Pirate Club!

Starting from today! The Underground Pirate Club!

Rhaina draws her weapon, taking aim at the symbols she had once painstakingly drawn.

Rhaina

Officially disbanded!

The symbol and text representing the Pirate Club are covered by spray paint sprayed.

Rhaina

Wanna hear the secret of how I became the head of the underground organization? Looking to reach the top of the campus hierarchy?

If you want, I'll give them all to you!

Go find it, the treasures of the Pirate Club, I've put everything you want there!

Niz held a newspaper from the News Department in her hand. The headline read, 'The Treasure of the Legendary Underground Pirate Club.'

Niz

Rhaina really knows how to cause trouble..

Is this also one of your suggestions?

Awakener

I said the Pirate Club's affairs should be handled internally. I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

Niz

What exactly is the so-called treasure?

Awakener

The reasons why the Pirate Club became the leader of the three major underground organizations, as well as the subsidies provided to the Pirate Club by the school, in detail.

If the Pirate Club becomes an official club, the club's classroom will also be included.

Niz

Do you really have no suggestions?

Awakener

This is Rhaina's idea. Don't forget that, besides being the Minister of the Pirate Club, she is also the assistant you arranged for me.

Niz

I hope you can reach your goals.

Awakener

Certainly.

Snezhana

Should the treasure... be placed here?

Rhaina

Is there any problem here?

Snezhana

A campus horror story takes place around here, are you sure it's okay?

Rhaina

Rest assured! There's no problem.

???

Who goes there?!

Snezhana

That's the Good Bunny Club Minister, who is very capable. Why would he be here?!

Rhaina

Seems like this is one of their secret bases, and it's precisely for this reason that I've placed the treasure here.

Rhaina

A treasure hunt is no fun without a few enemies thrown in the mix, right?

Snezhana

It seems like the enemy has found us!

Rhaina

How troublesome!

Snezhana

You drove away the Good Bunny Club Minister, is there no enemy left in the treasure hunt?

Rhaina

She will come back.

Snezhana

Are you hiding something?

Rhaina

Let's deal with the treasure first. We can talk about the rest later.
