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

Chapter 173 Hidden Body, Mysterious Ritual
What finally broke the deadlocked atmosphere on the podium was the bell for class.

The gentle and melodious melody, the noise that gradually quieted down, the class time has come, the students under the podium are gradually returning to their positions, and the two girls on the podium finally stopped wasting time looking at each other.

——Their eyes locked on Hirakawa Tetsuwen.

"..."

This kind of gaze made Hirakawa Zhewen a little... not sure how to react.

Hey, what is this for?Waiting for him to make the final choice?
Indeed.

"What does Mr. Hirakawa think?" Shiori Shinohara asked.

"Since I have agreed, I will naturally go to Mr. Hirakawa first." These were Yu Gongye's words.

Shinohara Shiori retorted: "If you want to say yes, Mr. Hirakawa is also the performance department who agreed first."

"..."

They stopped talking, and the two stared at him quietly.

Hirakawa Tetsubun somewhat helplessly greeted the scrutiny of the two students.

So in the end, they were really two immature high school students, and such trivial matters could cause conflicts.

However, it has been known for a long time that the relationship between Shinohara Shiori and Amamiya Ye, the two students, is indeed like this, and to be honest, it is no surprise.

Silence for a moment.

"that……"

Finally, he spoke with a helpless tone.

"The teacher is not someone's property, nor is it a tool or an excuse for the two of you to have conflicts. Please stop in moderation, you know?"

As he spoke, he sat up straight, his tone became serious, and he showed the majesty of being a teacher.

"...Yes." The two students restrained a little.

Hirakawa Tetsuwen continued, first looking at Yugong Ye: "Since Yugong has something to ask me this afternoon, the teacher has no reason to refuse."

"Yes." Yu Gongye responded, and immediately looked at Shiori Shinohara provocatively with his eyes.

Hirakawa Tetsubun glared at her.

Then he looked at Shiori Shinohara: "As for Shinohara-san, after the matter with Amamiya-san is resolved in the performance department, I will try my best to go."

"……Um."

From the tone of her voice, it could be heard that the eldest lady was a little bit unwilling, it should be said that she was very unwilling.

There is a sense of "why should we change to another instructor"-well, it must be his illusion.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa ignored Miss Shinohara's eyes.

Finally, he added a sentence.

"Also, you two, classmates should get along well."

"……Yes."

"..."

As always, when it was said that the two should get along well, both of them agreed in this way in front of him.

But in fact... just like Hirakawa Tetsufumi's usual way of agreeing to Kuta Moshu - it seems to be perfunctory at first glance.

Moreover, when the two were asked to walk off the podium, the two were still looking at each other, competing.

"..."

Hirakawa Tetsubun could be considered to know what Kuta Moshu felt when he was perfunctory.

I'm a little tired...

But it's already been taught.

Looking at the students who were already seated under the podium, Tetsufumi Hirakawa stood up from his heart and smiled.

"Students, start class."

-

Although there was such a small accident during the get out of class time, the dedicated Hirakawa Tetsufumi did not let this kind of incident affect his state of class.

Unfinished, without reading, just standing on the podium, holding chalk, writing on the blackboard as easily and smoothly as if strolling in the courtyard.

During the lecture, the content of the article, the appreciation of words and sentences, reading comprehension, the expansion of extracurricular knowledge, and so on, are also readily available.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi's flat lecture sound blended with the sound of rain from outside the window surrounding the classroom.

"Paragraph [-]. The rain surrounded Rashomon, and it was coming from a distance. Dusk lowered the sky; looking up, the door was on top of the slanting flying scorpion, supporting the dull clouds. "

"..."

The two classes of the class passed quickly.Even in the last class of Class B, there was still about 2 minutes left until the full text was finished.

It is conceivable that he hardly ever gets stuck in class.Fluency so far, even Hirakawa Tetsuwen himself is quite satisfied.

"Okay, that's all for today's class."

On the podium, Hirakawa Tetsuwen sat down, lying lazily on the podium with empty hands.

I'm tired.

After all, if you leave the book, you need to spend more mental energy on lecturing.If it wasn't for the purpose of proving to a female teacher, he wouldn't suddenly do such a meaningless thing.

What's more, it is impossible to not be tired after four consecutive classes.

"There are 2 minutes left to finish class. If you have any questions, you can ask me. If not, just wait quietly for the end of get out of class."

After the words fell, some students really raised their hands.

Hirakawa Tetsuwen looked over.

"Takao-san, do you have any questions? Please tell me."

Hitomi Takao, sitting in the back row, asked immediately after being clicked.

"Teacher Hirakawa, in fact, when the first get out of class was over today, many students discussed—"

"what?"

"Teacher Hirakawa, did you forget to bring your textbook today?"

"..."

There were a few small laughter in the classroom.

"……of course not."

It can be seen that this Takao student is very curious and has a keen observation ability.It's just that the conclusion is completely wrong.

"Then how do you get out of the script?"

Following the utterance of this sentence, there were several exclamations and discussions in the classroom.

"Eh...yes, I just found out."——I just found out at this time, because I didn't take classes seriously.

"No wonder I vaguely feel that Teacher Pingchuan is not the same today... It turns out that he didn't bring books."——The insight needs to be improved.

"That means... Teacher Hirakawa memorized all the texts?"

"Yes, it's amazing."

"..."

The twittering discussion has a tendency to expand.

Hirakawa Tetsuwen had to stop after listening for a while.

"Okay, everyone, be quiet, get out of class is not over yet—"

He waited until he calmed down before explaining.

"It's not that I forgot to bring my textbooks, it's just that I try to break away from the books and give lectures."

Hitomi Takao still had something to say, and said with great interest, "Mr. Hirakawa, I want to know, is the Chinese textbook in Mr. Hisata's hand at the class meeting this morning?"

"Eh……"

Tetsufumi Hirakawa raised his head and looked at Takao.

Immediately, several students spoke up.

"That's right, is the Chinese textbook in Mr. Jiutian's hand yours?"

Misplaced attention?
Hirakawa Tetsuwen looked at the gossiping students and nodded, dumbfounded, "Yes, I threw the textbook in Mrs. Hisata's hand to her."

"May I ask why?"

Hirakawa Zhewen refused to answer: "Don't pay so much attention to this kind of thing..."

"Is there anything unspeakable?"

"..."

The word ulterior motive is a bit serious...

Hirakawa Tetsubun wanted to speak, but——

"Ding--"

The prelude to the get out of class bell rang on time.

Hirakawa Zhewen immediately stood up and spoke faster.

"Okay, everyone, don't guess if there is nothing to do - get out of class."

After speaking, he turned around and walked out the door.Various voices came from behind.

"Teacher Hirakawa, you are so cunning."

"So why exactly?"

"I'm so curious, I want to know."

"..."

Explaining this kind of thing...Let's leave it to Hisada-sensei.

-

Since I didn't bring anything, there was no need to go back to the office first.

After class, Hirakawa Tetsuwen went directly to the cafeteria, and did not return to the office until after lunch.

When he sat down, the Chinese textbook he threw to Moshu Kuta was lying quietly on his desk.

As for the direct gaze from the side face, its owner is naturally a young and beautiful female teacher.

Hirakawa Tetsufu turned his face away.

Kuta Moshu was staring at him.

When the eyes met, Hirakawa Tetsufumi smiled first: "Good afternoon, Mr. Kuta."

"...Good afternoon, Teacher Hirakawa."

The teacher clearly looks like he has something to say - and the content must be inseparable from today's bet.

After waiting for a long time, she couldn't help asking first.

"Teacher Hirakawa, how was your class today?"

"Let's go to class..." Hirakawa Zhewen dragged his tune, slowly.

Kuta Moki stared at him.

"..."

Hirakawa Tetsuwen's speech speed returned to normal.

"There is no problem at all in class. Even if you don't use textbooks, there is no problem."

"……Really?"

Although Hirakawa Tetsufumi did come back from class, but... thinking about it, I still find it hard to believe.

In the final analysis, the Chinese class is different from mathematics and the like.It is very possible for mathematics to be separated from the textbook, but for the Chinese class, if you want to teach the text in class, you can’t separate it from the textbook, right?
If you want to finish the lecture without reading the textbook at all, you must be quite familiar with the content of the text-it's hard to imagine that the person who did this kind of thing was a teacher who is usually quite lazy-and he just read it for a short time in the morning.

Hirakawa Tetsubun waved his hands modestly: "It's actually not a big deal."

"..."

It is said to be modest, but in fact, the attitude of pride is overflowing.

"certainly--"

Hirakawa Tetsubun added while looking at the still doubtful eyes of Moshu Kuta.

"If Mr. Kuta wants to ask for evidence, you can ask the students in your class. They are all my witnesses."

"..."

"One more thing."

"what?"

Hirakawa Tetsuwen turned his head: "That's right, how should I put it... Mr. Jiutian may want to explain to your students... why you have my Chinese textbook in your hand during the morning class meeting."

"...Huh?" Kuta Moshu was a little confused.

"Well, that's it." That's it, Hirakawa Tetsufumi tried to make a conclusion.

"..."

-

Naturally, Hirakawa Tetsufu won the bet with Hisada Moki in an all-round way.

However, Kuta Moki still decided to ask the students for proof, even if Hirakawa Tetsufumi said "If even Mr. Kuta doesn't believe me, then this world is really terrible"-this kind of words.

The female teacher was still troubled and said: "I can't help it. After all, the impression Mr. Pingchuan gave me in normal times is really... so it's hard to believe."

Although the adjective he wanted to say was omitted, this hesitant look and tone was the most hurtful.

Fortunately, Hirakawa Tetsufumi was the victor.

He decided to forgive the teacher for his unintentional offense.

When the verification is over tomorrow, she will know what the situation is.

Also, the bet between the two...

Can this young female teacher promise him one thing... promise what?

-

While planning, I stayed leisurely until after school in the afternoon.

When Amamiya Ye came to the office to look for him, Hirakawa Tetsubun got up and bid farewell to Hisada Moshu who was still working hard as usual.

"Hata-sensei, goodbye."

"See you."

After saying goodbye, he walked out of the office with the girl beside him and came to the corridor.

"Okay, student Yugong, now that you're here, can you tell me what's going on?"

Yu Gongye stared out of the corridor, under the gray sky, there was still rain falling slowly.

"Wait until Mr. Hirakawa finds out."

Still can't say?
"Okay." Hirakawa Zhewen could only nod, "Where are you going now?"

"Teacher Hirakawa, follow me."

Yu Gongye said this to him, and walked ahead.

Hirakawa Tetsuwen followed.

Are you looking for a place where no one is around?
Because in the morning, it was the secret body who said he wanted to find him.

Where is the place where no one is in the school?
-

Looking out from the narrow door frame, there is a gray sky.

The rain and water vapor in the air were blown in from outside the door along with the wind and blown onto his face.

Cold and wet.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi wiped the moisture off his face with the back of his hand, then pointed outside.

"...Amiya-student, this is?"

Yu Gongye, who has transformed into the form of the hidden body, replied in a cold voice: "Rooftop."

"...Of course I know it's the rooftop." Hirakawa Zhewen looked at the empty platform outside, "The question is, why come to the rooftop when it's raining?"

"On the rooftop on a rainy day, no one will disturb Teacher Pingchuan."

"...Then you said it, it's raining outside."

"I'm carrying an umbrella." Yu Gongye took out the umbrella from nowhere.

"..."

Didn't see where it came from at all - did this girl have any special space for her umbrella?Always carry an umbrella.

While complaining in his mind, Hirakawa Tetsuwen said again: "The teacher didn't bring it, the umbrella is still in the office—"

Yu Gongye interrupted him: "Mr. Pingchuan just needs to support this body."

Still wanting to say something, the girl has already opened the umbrella, stepped on the roof with half of her foot, and turned to look at him.

"..."

This second-year girl always has stubborn ideas that cannot be changed.

"Alright alright."

With a sigh, Hirakawa Tetsubun took the umbrella that Amamiya Ye handed over, put it on top, and walked with her to the rainy rooftop under the umbrella.

-

"So, Amamiya-san, what are we going to do?"

Standing in the center of the rooftop, looking up at the hazy corner of Tokyo in the light rain through the gaps in the guardrail grille, Tetsufumi Hirakawa asked again about the purpose of his trip.

But this time, under the umbrella, by his side, Yu Gongye finally answered his question.

"This time I came here to perform a ceremony."

"Ritual?" Hirakawa Zhewen was puzzled.

"Well, the ceremony." Yu Gongye said so.

"What ceremony?" It was a second-year term again, and I couldn't understand it.

The girl raised her face.

The already dim light of the rainy day became even more dim under the cover of the black umbrella, and the girl's face was therefore hidden in the deep gray darkness.

Only, her eyes seemed to be shining with hope.
