High School of Demon Hunting-Chapter 356 - 25: The Newborns’ Moon Hunting Plan_1

The boys discussed the origins of the Kappa monster for a long time.

But in the end, they gained nothing.

Without essential information, even great diviners would be blind, let alone these freshmen who had just enrolled for just over a month.

"Let the professionals handle the professional matters, we should focus more on our health!" Xin Fat Man waved his plump arms, thus ending the trivial discussion.

Then he edged to the head of the bed, picked up the fruit plate on the table next to the sickbed, pulled out a small silver knife from his watch, and started to patiently slice the fruit.

"On the next patrol, you should take me with you." The loud voice of Zhang Ji Xin echoed through the ward, attracting the witches at the other corner of the ward to frequently glance over. "My Flying Centipede hasn’t been put to use since I bought it..."

"You didn’t buy it." Zheng Qing retorted weakly.

"It was obtained through self-sacrifice... Now it’s October, the Moon Hunting season for the students." Xiao Xiao said slowly: "You will find enough demon brains to feed your little centipede."

"Speaking of the school hunting party, I must mention," Xin Fat Man was originally holding the fruit plate others had given to Zheng Qing and eating vigorously, hearing Xiao Xiao’s topic, he suddenly put down the plate in his hand, and complained: "Those people from the student union are doing a horrible job!"

"Student Union?" Zheng Qing propped himself up with one arm, a curious look on his face: "What did they do?"

Because he was not admitted by the student union not long ago, Zheng Qing had a very bad impression of the largest student organization in the First University. He was eager to hear some negative news about this organization.

"You know, October is the Moon Hunting season." Xin mumbled as he chewed on an apple.

"Everyone knows," Zheng Qing suppressed the impulse to punch Xin’s cheek, and patiently replied, "I remember the professors said that the school workers and veterans also mentioned it during patrol..."

"As per the usual practice, the school will hold a large-scale hunting party in late October," Xin Fat Man forked a piece of green pear with a dinner knife, and blurted out: "This is not only a hunting party for all students of First University, but also a hunting party for the entire Buji Island, and even the whole wizarding world."

"So does that mean people from outside the island will come?" Zheng Qing raised his eyebrows, surprised: "I thought the school’s Guardian Array would be closed after the start of the school... No one can go out, and no one can come in."

"That restriction is for us students." Xiao Xiao explained, flipping open his notebook: "We must take the school’s dedicated plane to leave Buji Island, and the plane must open a special passage through the Guardian Array...For registered wizards, they can come to the island directly through ’Escape,’ of course, they must have invitations issued by the school, otherwise they will be crushed by the array immediately."

Zheng Qing rubbed his teeth and shook his head repeatedly.

"That’s not the point!" Xin Fat Man waved his dinner knife dissatisfiedly.

Zheng Qing saw a stream of fruit juice splashing onto the white wall of the hospital ward as he waved it. Hehe, the little elf taking care of the ward, angrily rushed over with a dirty rag in her hand.

"I didn’t mean it," Xin Fat Man apologized to the little elves who were cleaning the wall and turned back to the other boys.

"The point is..." He raised his voice slightly and said in a very serious tone: "This hunting party is a great opportunity for us to earn credits... Any student, not only the veterans who participate in the hunting party, but also those of us who are freshmen, will have the opportunity to earn some credits during the hunting party."

There was a small piece of broken grape skin stuck at the corner of his mouth, bouncing up and down as he spoke, which looked very funny.

But Zheng Qing didn’t have time to laugh at this.

"We can also earn credits at the hunting party?" He asked with some surprise: "I thought only the winning hunting team could earn credits."

"Arranging the venue, cleaning, organizing cheerleaders, performing programs during the half of the hunting game, as well as the hunting song contest and hunting painting exhibition held during the hunting party...as long as you participate, you will always get some credits." Xiao Xiao summed up by counting on his fingers: "Freshmen have the most miscellaneous tasks in the hunting party, of course, they can earn some credits in the hunting party...although the amount is very small."

"But!" The Fat Man showed a sorrowful expression on his face: "I just learned from the editor of the Campus Newspaper that the school is only appointing students from the Student Union and from various school clubs to take care of all these chores this year. This means, I, you... "

As he spoke, he pointed at Zheng Qing, then at Xiao Xiao and Zhang Ji Xin:

"And you two, we can only watch others earn credits while we drool!"

"This isn’t fair!" Zhang Ji Xin slammed a fist into the bedframe.

Zheng Qing felt like he was about to take flight.

"Don’t damage public property!" He cast an annoyed glance at the red-faced student and turned to look at the fat man again. "But... What does this have to do with the student union?"

"It’s extremely relevant!" The fat man pulled off half a banana, shoved it into his mouth, and mumbled: "The school’s gone crazy this year... Usually, the hunting party is organized by a main person in charge from the faculty council, with assistant organizers from the school labor committee, student union, and the club union... But this year, they’ve delegated responsibilities. All matters of the hunting party are to be handled by students."

"Maybe it’s because the school is understaffed..." Xiao Xiao squinted, whispering his guess.

"Students are in charge?" Zheng Qing didn’t catch Doctor Xiao’s words. He pinch his chin, pondering: "Which means the student union and the club union handle the hunting party this year? And they’ve implemented a new policy to recruit only from within their organizations?"

"That’s exactly it!" The fat man threw his head back to swallow the other half of the banana, complaining, "Shameless... They really dared to do it!"

"Didn’t anyone complain? File a report!" Zheng Qing slapped the bed, sitting upright: "Organize a protest with those who didn’t join any clubs or the student union. Or even vent to the ’Beta Town Post’..."

The other boys exchanged glances, remaining silent.

After a while, Zhang Ji Xin coughed and lowered his voice, "From our college alone, the number of people not in any clubs... Besides us four, there are probably about this many more."

As he spoke, he held up a hand and waved it in front of Zheng Qing.

"Five?" Zheng Qing mouthed the word silently, eyes wide.

Zhang Ji Xin shrugged.

"How can..." The young scholarship student appeared bewildered. He glanced at the fat man and then Xiao Xiao, asking, "I know why Xin didn’t join a club... What about you? You received several invitation letters, didn’t you?"

"Stayed in the library and lost track of time." Xiao Xiao kept his head down, flipping through his notebook, answering lazily.

"And you?" Zheng Qing turned to Zhang Ji Xin: "Don’t you constantly say you have a brother at the school... He should be able to find you a suitable club."

"It’s actually my brother who doesn’t want me to join a club." Zhang Ji Xin’s face also showed confusion: "He said something’s up with the school this year... He doesn’t want me involved in any messy clubs that could cause trouble for him or our family."

Xiao Xiao, as if realizing something, lifted his head and took off his glasses, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"So what do we do..." Zheng Qing leaned back, collapsing onto the bed with a sigh.

"We could start our own club." Doctor Xiao abruptly responded: "I’ve checked the school’s regulations before. At any point during the school term, students can start a new club... Obviously, if we want to participate in the hunting party, we would need to speed up."

As he spoke, he flipped through his notebook and added, "According to past rules, the club union suspends the entry of new members the day before the opening ceremony of the hunting party to prevent cheating... The opening ceremony of this year’s hunting party is scheduled for next Friday night, which means we have four days to submit the application to establish a club and complete the club union’s defense."

"Defense?" Xin Fat Man’s round face crinkled: "Do we need to defend to establish a club?"

"Whether it’s written or face-to-face, we need to explain our reasons for establishing a club, the purpose of our club, and all the other elements to the club union." Xiao Xiao twirled a pen between his fingers, patiently answering, "You can’t assume that just making up a name and recruiting a few members is enough to cheat money from the school."

"We can get funding from the school?!" Zheng Qing immediately perked up.

He felt this endeavor had potential.
