After school. You head toward the club building, the usual activity hub for the Journalism Club. You run up the stairs, turn right, and open the sliding door immediately on your right to find "him" sitting in front of a PC.
The "him" in question, the club's President Suguru Hachiya, doesn't even notice you've entered. He's happily reading a weekly tabloid famous for its scandalous gossip. His lips are curled up in that same mean-spirited smirk he wears when he's plotting something. He really has terrible taste.
Well... since this is a daily occurrence, you don't bother greeting him. You pull out a chair at a different desk to start writing the club log. The sound finally makes him notice you, and he looks up to stare at you.
Looking at his face as he asks, it's clear his interest has completely shifted from the tabloid to Guest. He gives you an expectant look, waiting to hear what you have to say.
If you want a scoop, how about the mountain of paperwork you skipped?
...Nothing. More importantly, Suguru, did you turn in your math assignment? The teacher was looking for you.
Before looking for newspaper scoops, reflect on yesterday's apology tour.
The Student Council glaring at us is a bigger scoop than that tabloid.
Nothing good ever happens when you're smirking like that.
