Suzukake Kiyomasa, having changed into sportswear, stood inconspicuously among the crowd.
This was the result he actively sought.
If he were too conspicuous, it would only bring him unnecessary trouble. He had no urgent need to display his abilities; he merely wanted to live a rather ordinary life.
"I truly don't know why, with Soubu High School participating in the joint competition this time, I was chosen."
Suzukake Kiyomasa shook his head. He was already ordinary enough in school. The ones participating in this joint competition were all the leaders of their respective classes. Why would he, such a transparent background character, be chosen to participate?
As he pondered, he brushed past a male student from Soubu High School with dead-fish eyes and long, plain hair.
Hachiman Hikigaya casually glanced at Suzukake Kiyomasa. He felt an inexplicable sense of alarm in his heart, always feeling that this person was not simple.
Thinking of this, Hachiman Hikigaya quickly moved on. He didn't want to seek trouble, and even less did he want to interact with someone who looked out of the ordinary like this.
'Just an ordinary high school student.'
Suzukake Kiyomasa glanced at Hachiman Hikigaya. His heart remained unperturbed.
But the next moment, his usually poker-faced expression faltered.
Before him, a man named "953" appeared, tall and well-built, impossible for anyone to ignore.
'Fujiwara Tetsu, what is he here for? Is he looking for me? No, that shouldn't be it. Probably just passed by coincidentally. I'd better not get involved.'
Thinking this, Suzukake Kiyomasa, who always wore a poker face, pretended not to see Fujiwara Tetsu and prepared to walk past him.
"Do you have time to talk?"
As Suzukake Kiyomasa walked past him, Fujiwara Tetsu suddenly spoke.
Suzukake Kiyomasa only thought he was talking to himself.
"Indeed."
"Senior, did you perhaps mistake me for someone else? I don't seem to know you."
"I don't know you either, but I haven't mistaken anyone."
Suzukake Kiyomasa felt suspicious in his heart.
"Suzukake Kiyomasa, right?"
"Yes, Senior, how do you know my name?"
"So, do you want to talk?"
"Sorry, I don't think there's anything good to talk about with Senior."
Suzukake Kiyomasa likewise didn't want to interact with such a prominent figure and was about to leave.
But Fujiwara Tetsu's next words made him freeze in place.
"White Room."
"What?!"
Suzukake Kiyomasa's pupils suddenly constricted.
"How about it, do you want to talk with me?"
Suzukake Kiyomasa was silent for a moment: "Please lead the way."
Fujiwara Tetsu walked ahead, with Suzukake Kiyomasa closely following.
Soon, Fujiwara Tetsu walked into the main teaching building of Soubu High School. Although he had never been here before, he easily found the path to the rooftop.
The door to the rooftop was locked, but Fujiwara Tetsu, using a method completely incomprehensible to Suzukake Kiyomasa, easily opened the lock.
On the rooftop, a gust of wind blew, and the surroundings were empty. Only Fujiwara Tetsu and Suzukake Kiyomasa's two silhouettes stood there.
"Senior, why do you know about the 'White Room'?"
Suzukake Kiyomasa's face darkened. His inner emotions rarely fluctuated, but the "White Room" was definitely a topic that could stir his emotions.
"The 'White Room' is an organization that researches 'superhumans' as its purpose. It searches for children with extraordinary intelligence from all over Kuoh to cultivate them, hoping to train true geniuses."
"Such organizations actually exist all over the world, but their research content is not widely known. After all, such organizations deprive people of human rights and involve ethics and morals."
"The 'White Room' organization of the Kuoh family, behind it, the patrons are the various financial groups of Kuoh. I, Fujiwara Tetsu, think you should know how I could have directly found you."
Suzukake Kiyomasa's mind spun rapidly: "Fujiwara family is one of the behind-the-scenes participants? No, the Fujiwara family might be a behind-the-scenes participant, but this shouldn't be something you would know."
"You're just an illegitimate child of the Fujiwara family, who only recently returned to the Fujiwara family, and the 'White Room' has been abandoned for some time, so at that time it wasn't even at the Fujiwara family!"
Suzukake Kiyomasa immediately noticed the contradiction in Fujiwara Tetsu's words.
"Oh? You investigated me?"
"A famous person like you will always make people want to investigate, but with my ability, I only know the superficial things. Senior is more complex than I imagined. You almost represent the Fujiwara family!"
Suzukake Kiyomasa, with clear logic, analyzed Fujiwara Tetsu's unusualness.
"Not bad."
Fujiwara Tetsu clapped his hands: "...It's no wonder the White Room trained the most successful creations. Although they lack innovation, they truly surpass ordinary people in other aspects."
"Thank you for the compliment, Senior. However, as a product of 'artificial' creation, my abilities are still somewhat inferior compared to true natural geniuses."
"It seems you have a good sense of self-awareness. There are some natural geniuses that are difficult to surpass. I must say, nature is truly amazing."
Fujiwara Tetsu's sigh did not relax Suzukake Kiyomasa at all.
He couldn't guess Fujiwara Tetsu's true strength, but he also didn't know his true purpose.
"Senior, what do you want to do? Why don't you just state it clearly."
"I want to see your father."
"My father?"
"It seems you don't like your father, Kiyomasa. Your tone changed. Yes, that's right. He's your biological child, yet he sent you to such an institution where no one has human rights. Your father is truly heartless."
Suzukake Kiyomasa wasn't provoked by Fujiwara Tetsu's words. He still thought calmly and rationally: "What do you want to see my father for?"
"Not bad, you make me evaluate you even higher. My purpose in seeing your father is very simple. I want to get something from him."
"Something?"
"That is you, Suzukake Kiyomasa!"
Fujiwara Tetsu's words instantly made Suzukake Kiyomasa stunned.
I'm not some great beauty, why do you want me?
Could he actually be interested in men?
No, no, no, what am I thinking? Besides, I'm not a 'thing'!
"Heh, it seems you can't understand. To be precise, your ability is excellent, and the team that actually implements it."
"What can you give my father?"
"Very simple. I will give him what he desires most: political status. He is a political loser who has always wanted to rise again, and I can help him."
"Senior, do you have the authority to use the Fujiwara family's resources?"
Suzukake Kiyomasa asked in a deep voice.
"I cannot use all of the Fujiwara family's resources, but I can use some of them, far beyond what the Fujiwara family possesses."
"Let me introduce myself. I am the CIA director responsible for Kuoh. You can also call me 'Adam. Scott'."
"..."
"CIA, director?"
Suzukake Kiyomasa was startled. This was absolutely unexpected.
"As the CIA, you don't need to have so many goals, do you?"
"Don't worry about my goals. Even if I'm preparing to destroy this country, would you care? Kiyomasa, this is your best chance to gain freedom, your best chance to break free from your father's control. Do you dare to gamble once?"
Suzukake Kiyomasa was silent, his face contorted, but he finally said firmly, "...Alright, I will contact my father. I will even help you persuade him with my abilities."
"Not bad, my evaluation of you rises again. You have great potential."
Fujiwara Tetsu turned around and patted Suzukake Kiyomasa's shoulder.
"What's the name of our organization?"
"Impossible. Mission. Force, the name I just came up with. How's that?"
"Impossible Mission?"
Suzukake Kiyomasa chuckled.
It seemed this organization's work wasn't simple at all.
But he didn't care. He had absolute confidence to complete all missions. As long as he did, he could gain true freedom!
Fujiwara Tetsu left the rooftop.
"Even a person like Suzukake Kiyomasa, with such great intelligence, is powerless to resist when faced with overwhelming power."
Suzukake Kiyomasa was very smart and wise, but when faced with the immense power and influence held by his father, he was powerless to resist.
It was like Shimiya Huangguang, the fourth son of the Shimiya family; in terms of wisdom and intelligence, he and Suzukake Kiyomasa were simply worlds apart.
But Shimiya Huangguang was the heir of the Shimiya family, so he possessed everything, while Suzukake Kiyomasa didn't even have the most basic freedom.
"How pathetic. Therefore, I will take advantage of your wisdom."
Fujiwara Tetsu left the teaching building.
Now that Fujiwara Tetsu had a basic foundation in Kuoh, he could begin his grand scheme.
He wanted to leverage the power of America, to travel between Kuoh and America, using their power to attack. His goal was not simply to become an elected prime minister.
An elected prime minister could be ousted at any time, even assassinated.
His goal was to establish a new shogunate!
Although Suzukake Kiyomasa's father was a political loser, he was very influential in the education world. Fujiwara Tetsu wanted to use him to gain some support in the education world.
Besides Suzukake Kiyomasa's father, there was another target for Fujiwara Tetsu: Sakayanagi's father.
Being able to conduct an experimental school like Advanced Nurturing High School in a place like Tokyo shows that Sakayanagi's chairman is also not simple.
Both of them can become my spokespeople in the education world.
"The Suzukake family gave me Suzukake Kiyomasa. What the Sakayanagi family can give me is only Sakayanagi Arisu."
He chuckled softly. It was time to take the initiative!
"I finally found you! Where did you go just now? The match is about to start, quick, come with me."
Yukinoshita Yukino, wearing sportswear, saw Fujiwara Tetsu's eyes light up. She quickly ran over, grabbed Fujiwara Tetsu's arm, and started running.
Fujiwara Tetsu let her pull him.
Hmm, before meeting Chairman Sakayanagi again, let's finish this high school match.
