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

Chapter 182 Tetsufumi Hirakawa Finds the Answer

Shiori Shinohara already knew that if her eyes were only limited to the performance section, there would be no progress.

There will be nothing.

So, she has to go one step further, go a step further, touch the daily life, in order to seize that small opportunity.

Maybe too much attention will cause a guard similar to "what are you doing to focus on the teacher when you have nothing to do" just now, but she has to do it.

That's how she made up her mind after returning from a visit to a doctor.

Following her inner thoughts, she asked at this moment.

"Teacher Hirakawa, Shiori would like to ask, what is it?"

The tone was calm, and in the calmness, hidden the little girl's unknown thoughts.

Being able to share and even solve troubles for her teacher Hirakawa is a good opportunity to get closer.

She wants to seize this opportunity.

It is even said that if this trouble touches a personal secret, she who can share this secret with Mr. Pingchuan will be able to get closer to a greater extent.

Shiori Shinohara was looking forward to it.

Faced with the girl's question, Hirakawa Tetsuwen seemed a little hesitant.

"This one……"

How should I put it, as a teacher, he didn't intend to talk about his personal affairs with the students, but after thinking about it, especially, Shiori Shinohara asked this question on his own initiative, so his mind was still popped up -

Perhaps, it is really possible to ask this young lady about this matter - this kind of thought.

After all, they are all girls, so they know better than him, right?

So, after a while, he still asked the question.

Still using the rhetoric of noon.

"Xiaoyuan-san, I want to ask, if you accidentally offended a woman because of some things, how should you apologize, in your opinion, can you show your sincerity?"

"..."

Miss Shinohara, who was looking forward to being able to share the troubles of her teacher Hirakawa, suddenly shattered the small thoughts hidden in her heart.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Hirakawa Zhewen glanced at the girl beside him in surprise, her expression was quite strange.

"...No, nothing."

Shinohara Shiori took a deep breath, shook her head silently and said.

Thinking about it, it's really...inexplicable.

It seems that every time she makes up her mind, she always encounters something that frustrates her.

Every time, even this time.I just thought about being able to get closer, but I encountered such an annoying problem again.

However, what is even sadder is...

She's used to it.

Well, several setbacks actually made her get used to it.

Ah.

Under the questioning eyes of the teachers around her, Shinohara Shiori smiled self-deprecatingly, and the corners of her mouth curled up.

Hirakawa Tetsuwen: "..."

Hmm...why did he suddenly smile, it was still a mocking smile, what was this for, mocking him?

Hirakawa Zhewen felt hurt in his heart.

"Well, Shinohara-san, it's kind of mean to laugh at the teacher..."

Shiori Shinohara sighed, and walked down the last step of the club building with some tiredness.

"It's nothing...just, I didn't expect Mr. Hirakawa to do it because of this kind of thing."

"...Can't you?"

"If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Hirakawa is probably on the edge of a dead end."

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

"After all, according to common sense, Mr. Hirakawa is not the kind of person who can't read the air. I just think that you shouldn't be stumped by such small things."

On the contrary, this teacher who always dealt with all kinds of students and their parents, not to mention good at communication, at least not so low in social skills that he can't even apologize.

Therefore, in this way of speculation, it can only be a dead end - or to conceal some conditions.

However, there is no need to guess about unknown things, which will only complicate the problem, and only need to reason based on known conditions.

"right?"

Shiori Shinohara asked back.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi was silent.

The eldest lady continued to speak and gave her answer.

"If Hirakawa-sensei wants to apologize sincerely, it would be inappropriate to generalize the target of the apology as 'female'."

"After all, everyone's personality and hobbies are different, and it is definitely not something that a 'female' can summarize. If you want to show your sincerity, you should know the other person well enough, and then, do what you like."

"...follow what you like?"

"Students should be taught in accordance with their aptitude. In the same way, if you want to apologize, of course you have to do what you like." Shiori Shinohara gave an example casually.

She doesn't like all kinds of social interactions, and she doesn't want to make any friends in class, but that doesn't mean she won't.

The eldest lady, who has received all kinds of elite education since she was a child, also got full marks in the etiquette class-but, obviously, no class taught her how to fall in love.

Tetsubun Hirakawa bowed his head in silence for a while, thinking about Shiori Shinohara's answer.

By the time they came back to their senses, the two had already changed their shoes and walked out of the shoe cabinet in the teaching building.

"Xiaoyuan-san, you are right, I am really on the edge of a dead end."

Holding an umbrella, I walked on the aisle leaving the school. On both sides of the road, there were bright street lights, scattering white luster.

The light penetrates into the night, illuminating the raindrops in midair.

Through the rain curtain woven by the rain, Hirakawa Tetsubun solemnly thanked Shinohara Shiori.

"Thank you."

"It's okay, as long as I can help Mr. Hirakawa." Shiori Shinohara's pretty face was in the dark under the umbrella, slightly turned away, leaving him with a profile.

Hirakawa Tetsuwen withdrew his eyes and looked at the road ahead. The wet ground reflected the blurry street lights.

What Shiori Shinohara said was right, he really got into a dead end.

Because this is the first time I have such contact with the opposite sex, I always can't let go of this matter. Even when I think about how to apologize, I always think about how to apologize because I offended the other party. ?
In fact, an apology is an apology, no matter what the apology is for, it does not jump out of the category of apology.

But speaking in a philosophical way, the mistake he made was that he paid too much attention to the individuality of things and ignored the commonality.

An apology is an apology, and the most important thing is to show sincerity, and to show sincerity, as Miss Shinohara said, it should be different from person to person, according to their preferences.

There is nothing wrong with preparing an apology gift or something else based on what the other party cares about.

So let's take this as the direction of thinking, Saiko Ogasa, what do you care about?

But... this question is also very difficult, it should be said that it is quite difficult.

There is no intersection between him and her, so how can we understand each other?
No, not at all.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi began to recall.

According to his excellent memory and his speculation, there should be about five intersections between him and Saiko Ogasasa.

The first time, of course, was when he met her in the supermarket for the first time, and he mistook her for her sister, but she didn't deny it, but pretended to be her sister and communicated with him naturally.

The second time, it should be before going to Kyoto. She met him at the tram station. For some reason, she asked him "why did she agree to go to Kyoto with her?" Doubt, now that I think about it, this kind of question is not something that the naturally dumb Suzuki Ogasa could ask.

The third time, "I followed to Kyoto because I was worried that my sister could not take care of me." In the morning in Kyoto, when we met at the restaurant, she refused to go to school with him on behalf of her sister-at that time, she also refused to go to school with him because she could not act well. The resemblance made him suspicious-and eventually led to him being stopped by the security guards at the school gate.

For the fourth time, the night in Kyoto helped take care of him who was sick.

The fifth time was the meeting in the supermarket last night—the key point was that before leaving, he deliberately turned back and told him not to tell her sister about the matter.

"..."

Hmm... After combing, it seems that there is an amazing discovery.

Excluding the fourth thing, and connecting the remaining four things together, we can find that no matter what happens, the actions of this Saiko Ogasa cannot avoid her sister...

why?

The only answer is, this Saiko——

Is it sister control?

Hirakawa Tetsufumi thinks he has the answer.
