I work as a teacher at a girls' school in Tokyo

Chapter 153 The Trip to Kyoto ([-])
After a little calculation, this problem that has plagued the flute department for a long time, if it started with a certain wayward young lady playing a puzzle game with him, about two weeks have passed.

For two weeks, Hirakawa Zhewen has also been trying to solve it.

He even stayed in the performance department for several days in a row, staying with the students who were practicing until seven o'clock in the evening.

Although this is what the instructor should do, it is him after all, and it is rare, so it is worth mentioning it specifically.

In short, in order to answer this question, Hirakawa Tetsubun thought that he had put in a lot of energy, and even traveled from Tokyo to Kyoto to accompany Ogasa Suzukiko to visit the Uyama performance department.

And just today, June [-]th, Friday night, Hirakawa Tetsufumi can finally announce that he has finally got an answer to the problems of Moritani's playing section.

The two weeks of hard work were not in vain, and the trip to Kyoto did not return without success, and I did not disappoint the trust of Mr. Xiaoli.

Really gratifying.

"Hello, hello? Are you still alive?"

Still contemplating, Hazuki Reya's finger was waving in front of his eyes, waving it, then waving it, and then waving it in front of his eyes.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi raised his head and stared at her until the girl stopped her fingers.

"Alive."

"You've been thinking about it for a long time."

"is it?"

"So, is there any result?"

"Naturally."

Hirakawa Tetsubun nodded, retracted his miscellaneous thoughts, and focused on Hazuki Reya.

"Of course, thank you for your help."

"..."

Hazuki Riya froze for a moment, and looked away.

"Okay...it's just a trivial matter, don't be so serious-then now, can I go back?"

"My problem is over, of course there is no problem. But seeing you like this, are you in a hurry?"

Reya Hazuki looked up at the night sky.

"I completely forgot, I didn't tell the store manager what happened in the store at all."

"..."

Hirakawa Tetsuwen was stunned for a moment.

"So, has the convenience store been empty for so long?"

"Ah."

"...Will you be fired?"

Thinking of the dismissal for the first time, Hirakawa Zhewen was very emotional.

In other words, this is the tragedy of the workplace, and he has worried about this kind of thing.

"Probably, no, right? The store manager is still very nice." Reya Hazuki said this in a tone of uncertainty.

"..."

"Anyway, I'm leaving, goodbye." The girl looked away from the sky and said goodbye to him.

"Goodbye——" Hirakawa Zhewen also subconsciously said goodbye, but soon discovered that something was wrong.

"and many more."

"what happened?"

Hazuki Riya stopped and was about to turn around and walk away.

Hirakawa Zhewen looked around helplessly: "Student Ye Yue, this is my first time in Kyoto."

"..."

Just now at the convenience store, Hazuki Remi dragged her into an unknown alley. After the incident, she came out of the alley and arrived at Uji River within a few steps.

Tetsubun Hirakawa, who came to Kyoto for the first time, naturally did not know the way back to the hotel.

So, let this student lead the way.

Anyway, that's it, he and Reya Hazuki walked back to the convenience store together.

-

There was an accident on the way.

"Hey."

"what?"

Reya Hazuki, who was walking a little ahead, turned around and shouted at him, and Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who was looking at the unfamiliar night scene of Kyoto, responded casually.

"It seems to be raining." Ye Yueli stopped and said hesitantly.

"Is there?" Hirakawa Zhewen didn't feel the rain.

"some."

Hazuki Riya raised her hand, and with the dim light on the side of the road, she could see a little crystal water drop on it.

Hirakawa Tetsuwen had to stop and raised his face.

"Hmm—it seems true."

Still in doubt, a drop of cold rain has fallen and dripped on his face.

He wiped it with his hand, but more raindrops fell for a while.

"It's raining. Fortunately, I brought an umbrella when I left the hotel."

The rustling sound of rain falling gradually sounded in my ears, and at the same time, the pleasant inquiry voice from Kansai accent also entered my ears simultaneously.

"So, what about the umbrella?"

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at his left hand, and it was a red, empty coke can that he couldn't throw away because he couldn't find the trash can.

I looked to my right hand, it was empty.

"... Where's the umbrella?"

Hazuki Riya suddenly gave a "chi" laugh: "That's right, where's the umbrella?"

The cold raindrops dripped on his face, and Hirakawa Zhewen seized the time to recall.

After a few seconds, he remembered.

"...Probably because of the incident just now, it fell into the convenience store."

After the words fell, amid the pleasant laughter and the light rain, Hirakawa Tetsufumi wiped his face with his hand again, and asked Reya Hazuki who was a few steps ahead of him.

"How far is it from the convenience store here?"

Reya Hazuki pressed the brim of her peaked cap with her free hands.

"If you hurry up, it will only take about five minutes."

"..."

-

Running in the rain with a little embarrassment.

The increasingly heavy rain wetted the hair on his forehead, and Hirakawa Tetsufumi had to reach out and brush his hair away.

Hazuki Reya was also running beside her, but because of the peaked cap, her neat bangs were still neat.

He even had time to take a look at the teacher beside him, panting and laughing.

"You look, like, a little embarrassed."

Hirakawa Tetsubun glanced at her inexplicably.

"What are you laughing at? You're not going anywhere."

In any case, his physical strength is better than that of the female high school students, and his breathing is fairly stable now.Although there is no hat, so the hair is very messy, but it is obviously not elegant to run out of breath in the rain.

In general, the situation of the two is about the same.

However, Hazuki Reya was still panting and laughing, and because of Hirakawa Tetsufumi's question, she laughed a little more happily.

"But don't you think it's funny that a person who was still talking about himself, omnipotent a few minutes ago, has become so embarrassed now?"

"..."

A moment of silence.

All that remained in my ears were the patter of the footsteps of the two, and Reya Hazuki's laughter and panting mixed with the sound of rain.

He looked ahead. There were not many people on the streets of the residential area at night, and only a figure holding an umbrella could be seen under the street lights ahead.

There was no way to refute it.

"If this person is not me, probably."

"laugh."

-

Tetsufumi Hirakawa and Reya Hazuki arrived at the convenience store when their bodies were almost drenched.

There was no one in the store, and the bright lights came out through the glass doors.

"It seems... nothing happened... not bad."

At the door, Reya Hazuki took off her peaked cap, still panting.

"Where's my umbrella?"

Hirakawa Zhewen's voice also seemed to be a little ups and downs, but it didn't matter. He pushed open the glass door and walked in first.

Just the moment he entered, his body trembled immediately.

With a wet body, it was too cold when the cold air in the store hit.

"It's so cold." Hazuki Reya who followed into the store also shrank her neck.

Hirakawa Tetsubun glanced back at her. The girl was wearing the uniform of a convenience store employee.

"What?" Sensing his gaze, Hazuki Riya quickly crossed her arms and said vigilantly, "Are you disappointed that there is no wet body temptation?"

——This sentence was quite coherent, finished in one breath, and then began to pant.

Hirakawa Zhewen ignored her, endured the air-conditioning, and looked around.

"found it."

His umbrella was lying quietly on the cash register.

Completely forgot when it was put up.

-

Holding an umbrella, Hirakawa stood at the door of the convenience store, facing the rain in the night.

Behind him, Hazuki Riya pushed open the door of the convenience store and came out.

"Hey."

"what happened?"

"Do you want to wipe it off?"

"what?"

Hirakawa Zhewen turned around, and what he saw was that the girl had shoulder-length hair hanging loose, and the wet clothes on her body had probably been changed in the staff lounge, and she had changed into Yushan's school uniform.

She stretched out her hand at this moment, and in her hand was a brand new white towel that should have just been taken off the shelf.

"Ok?"

In doubt, Hazuki Reya stretched out his hand again: "Towel."

"……Oh, thanks."

It took Hirakawa Zhewen a while to react, and took the towel.

To be honest, I didn't expect her to be so caring.

Putting down the umbrella in his hand for the time being - Riya Hazuki picked it up when he put it down - then, he wiped his face and hair with a towel.

"Thank you."

After wiping, he thanked him again, handed the towel to Reya Hazuki, and took the umbrella from her.

"It's okay." The girl replied politely.

"Then, I should go too, bye."

Hirakawa Tetsufumi formally bid farewell, his right hand had already touched the switch of the folding umbrella, but he stopped this action soon.

"What? Have something to say?"

Against the bright lights in the convenience store, under the neat bangs, one can see the slightly hesitant eyes of the girl in front of her.

"..."

She was silent for a while, holding the towel in her hand, and made a rare solemn bow, and her loose hair hung down.

"Anyway, thank you tonight."

Hirakawa Tetsufumi blinked.

Hazuki Riya straightened up, and continued to speak seriously.

"To be honest, when I was changing clothes just now, I suddenly recalled what happened tonight, and I felt a sense of hindsight—it's amazing, such a feeling."

"is it?"

"Well, it's amazing anyway. And, thank you."

I bowed again.

"It's okay, I've received your thank you."

Hirakawa Tetsubun waved his hand casually, motioning for the girl to get up.

Reya Hazuki stood up again: "Finally, I want to ask one more question."

Hirakawa Zhewen, who received the thanks, was in a good mood: "Just ask."

"This omnipotent Mr. Hirakawa, one day my stomach suddenly grows bigger, or maybe the whole of Japan falls when I wake up, won't it happen?"

"..."

Hirakawa Tetsufumi's smile suddenly disappeared from his face, and moved to the corner of Hazuki Reya's mouth.

Her serious posture has disappeared, and the smile at the corners of her eyes and mouth is dazzling.

Hirakawa Tetsubun glanced at her blankly, turned around, and opened the umbrella.

"Don't worry, there will never be."

He walked straight into the night rain.

"It's getting late, goodbye."

"Well, goodbye--and, I haven't asked yet, can your school's playing department enter the national competition?"

"Easy to win the National Gold Award."

Replying casually, Hirakawa Tetsuwen continued to walk forward, and the lights of the convenience store quickly disappeared behind him.

I've solved the problem with the flute section, so I should go back to Tokyo tomorrow.
