Chapter 19 Student Union

In the student union's lounge area, a dark wooden coffee table stood quietly, its edges softened.

The aroma of hot coffee wafted from the porcelain cup, filling the room and creating a sense of tranquility.

Frey sat on the sofa, silent, not denying the president's words.

He had no intention of showing off and trusted the president's judgment.

"President, please speak," Lan Qi asked sincerely.

With his warm heart and eagerness to help, he naturally wouldn't stand idly by when the school had urgent public affairs to handle.

Moreover, he had now joined the Student Management Committee, which was responsible for this area, and felt a strong sense of responsibility.

"Recently, an old, small building on campus urgently needs to be demolished, but a team that was originally disbanded is still occupying the unsafe wooden house as their activity room, so I would like to ask you to persuade them to move out," President Monaster said slowly to the two newcomers.

This wooden building was originally the clubroom of the team "Soul of the Fighter."

However, due to the team's poor performance in recent years, relying too much on pure force while neglecting balance and cooperation, it was demoted and disbanded last year.

Now, the building is being privately occupied by unofficial remnants of the team.

Originally, the school and the student union could have turned a blind eye to these students who had developed feelings for the clubroom.

But the problem is that, due to the team's extremely poor management in the years before its disbandment, the clubroom had been neglected for years, and the team's usual training activities were extremely destructive, resulting in damage to the building's magic defense barrier, making it very dilapidated, and seriously violating the "Hutton Kingdom Fire Safety Management Regulations."

It might even endanger the safety of other students passing by the building, so the school decided to demolish it.

The Hutton Kingdom Capital Fire Department is currently urging this matter and has granted the school a demolition permit.

According to regulations, the school needs to complete the demolition within 15 days, or it will face fines and public criticism.

"But the problem is that those members who want to protect the old clubroom don't agree. No matter how many notices and safety hazard assessment reports we send, they respond with indifference. And today is the last day given by the Fire Department. We not only need to communicate with them about moving out, but also assist the Magic Engineering Institute in completing the demolition work," President Monaster said with a helpless shake of his head.

Monaster naturally understood the feelings of these students.

However, fire safety was paramount, and he needed to consider the school's reputation, the safety and quality of the students' campus life.

At the school staff meeting, Monaster, the student president who bore the heavy responsibility of coordinating the relationship between the school and the students, proposed to the school to allocate funds to repair the dilapidated building, but the school rejected it. If such a violation of team management regulations was allowed to set a precedent, there would be endless violations in the future, and students would use this incident as an example to request compromises from the school.

Lan Qi nodded after listening, realizing it was a case of nail户拆迁腾退 (stubborn residents refusing to relocate) and fire safety hazards.

"I understand. Leave this matter to me, President. You've come to the right person," Lan Qi said confidently, giving off the feeling of a professional team.

This confidence made Hyperion turn to look at Lan Qi beside her.

Although it was related to his major.

She felt uneasy because Lan Qi occupied the moral and legal high ground.

She was too familiar with his state when he was fully engaged!

"Very good," the president said with satisfaction. "For this task, the school has approved a three-day work holiday for the executing members, as well as practical credits equivalent to a quarter of a required course. In addition, if this year's overall work goes smoothly, our student union will also have a mid-term travel vacation and other activities funded by the school, which won't be worse than the best teams in the school. It may just require everyone to work hard together, and I personally apologize if it delays your studies."

After briefly introducing the basic operation mechanism of the student union to Lan Qi and Hyperion, President Monaster nodded solemnly to the three freshmen.

The student union's thankless tasks were high-risk and high-reward. Only students who truly loved the campus and possessed talent would choose to join.

"President, what are you saying? It's my honor to join this team and serve my classmates," Lan Qi said, his sense of responsibility almost overflowing, just like when he wanted to save the Demon Academy from the crisis of 폐교 (school closure).

Only this enthusiasm could not be doubted as fake.

"..." Hyperion was speechless for a moment.

She knew that Lan Qi wanted nothing more than to legally skip class while enjoying the school's protection, convenience, and resources.

He would probably try to stay in the student union in every possible way from now on.

There was no such thing as delaying his studies.

Frey also nodded in agreement.

He hadn't shown his face in class for a whole week since the start of the semester and was caught by the Dean of the Knights' Academy at the Ikrit Crown Casino at 3:30 in the morning, and finally thrown into the student union.

This was the dean's final warning to him, and it also gave him the option of skipping all his classes and still being able to complete his studies successfully.

Fortunately, he got along well with the president, and the student union office wasn't bad. He just didn't want to go to class.

"Okay, Frey, please lead the way to the Knights' Academy and clear out the clubroom that needs to be demolished. We'll also need your help with the demolition work," President Monaster said, patting Frey on the shoulder.

"No problem."

As soon as he finished speaking, Frey stood up, waved his hand, and walked towards the door of the student union office.

Lan Qi and Hyperion also nodded to the president and followed Frey out.

"Please note that although those remaining 'Soul of the Fighter' team members are very combative and aggressive, they are actually very honorable. As long as you find a way to communicate with them, you should be able to find a way to mediate. Don't have a direct conflict with them, which will exacerbate campus conflicts," President Monaster said, standing up with his hands behind his back, watching the three leave.

"No conflict, rational communication, solve the fire problem, I understand, I'll definitely do it well!" Lan Qi muttered to himself, then turned around and waved to the president with a hearty smile.

Accompanied by the response and the sound of the student union office door opening and closing.

The president watched the three leave the student union office.

Next to the sofa in the student union lounge area.

"Monaster, is it really okay to let them go?" Vice President Asina asked, holding a tray in one hand and stroking her cheek with a worried expression.

Among the club members occupying the dangerous house, there was no shortage of powerful third-year students with fiery tempers. If Lan Qi annoyed them, it could lead to a very serious campus accident.

"You can rest assured of the newcomers' abilities," Monaster said calmly as he walked back to his desk, opened a folder, and focused on reviewing the piled-up reports.

There are 5 chapters today, and 3 more chapters later.
