Practical teaching, all I want is your reward.

"I can't scare her anymore. If I completely shatter her dream of becoming an idol, I'll feel like I'm a really bad person."

Immediately afterwards, Toru Suzuki's voice rang out.

"I thought the owner wouldn't be aware of this, using a fake account to harass their idol and then taking advantage of the situation. It sounds pretty bad."

Sakura Airi silently put down her fruit knife; she seemed to no longer need to worry about Suzuki Toru's safety.

“When you’re criticizing someone, it’s best not to laugh.” Suzuki Tetsu paused. “Also, keep your voice down.”

"Yes, sir. But is the reason you want to get close to that woman with glasses because she has big breasts?"

Chapter 381 Please type it out to me!

Sakura Airi leaned against the wall, her once hot body growing colder and colder, her face turning pale. She desperately wanted to escape, but her legs felt like they were made of lead, and she couldn't move them at all.

Not only that, she even had to cover her mouth to prevent the two of them from hearing her voice, her eyes were filled with tears, as if she was about to cry.

It turns out the pervert was Suzuki Toru, who had deceived her, toyed with her feelings, and was clearly a lecherous man who had come for her.

At this moment, the girl's shoulders were shaking uncontrollably, her throat moved, tears welled up in her eyes, her gaze was empty, and a heart-wrenching feeling came from her chest.

She was terrified of hearing Suzuki Toru's answer.

"Shiho, I can't deny what you said. My sexual orientation is towards cute girls, and Airi happens to be a cute girl, although I didn't initially intend to approach her in this way."

Just a moment ago, Sakura Airi would have been embarrassed by his words, but now she was only confused and even felt a strong sense of rejection, not wanting to hear his voice again.

Immediately afterward, a surge of anger welled up inside her. He kept saying how cute she was, but her behavior was exactly like that of a pervert. In that case, how was Suzuki Tetsu any different from those people?

What angered Sakura Airi even more was whether Suzuki Toru had been lying from the very beginning.

Thinking back carefully, Suzuki Toru must have discovered her secret by taking her camera, which is why a pervert appeared at that time. Who would have thought that Suzuki Toru had another face?

It was because Suzuki Tetsu helped her fix her camera that she discovered the existence of the shop assistant, which is why she managed to get rid of him. He not only harassed her through a fake account, but also openly accepted her gratitude.

No wonder they have such an abnormal understanding of how to take beautiful photos; they're all the same person.

Sakura Airi was trembling all over. She could no longer tell which one was the real Suzuki Toru. Was every word the other person said a deliberate attempt to deceive her?

Such a beautiful dream was suddenly shattered.

She'd rather be torn to pieces than accept this truth; it's too much.

"Actually, the owner could still keep it a secret, right?" The girl's voice was full of regret. "She looks so silly. Even if the owner wanted to keep it a secret until graduation, she probably wouldn't have found out. Now, it's just a waste of a small account."

“I didn’t intend to scam anyone. The reason I used a secondary account was because I wanted to do this to her. Every idol has experienced dealing with weird fans. If I were to do it myself, I would at least control the level of abuse.”

Sakura Airi was stunned because Suzuki Tetsu's words sounded familiar. He had said something similar to her before, suggesting that she should try to learn how to deal with perverts.

"Does Master just want to train her a little?" The girl seemed a little jealous. "He could have just let her be. Someone like her with glasses, Master could easily seduce her into bed with a flick of his finger, right?"

"I remember you shouldn't be the kind of person whose mind is full of lewd thoughts."

"Like master, like slave. After all, my master made me do those kinds of things."

"..."

Sakura Airi was initially quite happy, but when she heard the other person repeatedly calling her "master," her expression darkened. Who was this guy who claimed to be a slave?

The voice didn't sound like one of the girls in her class, nor did it sound like the voices of Arisu Sakayanagi, Masumi Kamuro, Honami Ichinose, or Akane Tachibana. It was unfamiliar; the child was someone she didn't know at all.

However, the other party's words gave Sakura Airi a glimmer of hope. If things were viewed from another angle, for example, Suzuki Tetsu was pretending to be a pervert for her sake.

So, this ending isn't too bad.

"I'm so envious. Master goes so far as to pretend to be a pervert, then helps her come up with ideas on how to deal with perverts, and even wins her heart. Does Master like her that much?"

In that instant, Sakura Airi held her breath. In fact, before she knew the truth, Suzuki Tetsu's plan had already succeeded. She had indeed developed feelings for Suzuki Tetsu.

However, what truly moved Sakura Airi was not that Suzuki Toru helped her deal with a pervert, but rather that she felt very comfortable with him, both in their everyday conversations and in the fact that he would lend her a hand behind her back.

Although her studies have been very demanding lately, and she hasn't been able to talk as eloquently as Haruka Hasebe, she has at least made one or two friends and taken the first step.

She truly believed that with Suzuki Toru's help, she would make more friends, allowing her restless heart to break free from the lifeless past and embrace the light that belonged to her.

Because it is impossible for a person to remain in a state of solitude forever.

Even though she didn't show the slightest trace, Suzuki Toru was still able to catch her thoughts.

After realizing this, Sakura Airi sincerely felt that it was wonderful to have Suzuki Toru by her side and to have met him in high school.

"What kind of 'like' are you asking about?"

Suzuki Toru's voice made Sakura Airi's heart pound. If the other party was only using this method to help her adapt to the pervert, Sakura Airi could accept it.

More than anything about being a pervert, Sakura Airi is afraid of losing Suzuki Toru.

Once that was put aside, the girl's thoughts returned. She was very curious about how Suzuki Toru viewed her, and she couldn't help but feel uneasy and nervous.

"Hmm, physical attraction?" The girl was a little uncertain.

"Who would hate a pretty girl idol?" Suzuki Tetsu found it strange. "If someone doesn't like Airi, he must be gay."

Sakura Airi almost made a sound. If he had physical attraction to her, wouldn't that prove that Suzuki Toru had romantic feelings for her?

"Does Master have any kind of spiritual preference?" the girl racked her brains. "Does Master like someone a little silly?"

Sakura Airi wanted to rush out; what kind of stupidity was she?

"As for the inner self, it's probably because it's fun to be with her." As if remembering something, Suzuki Tetsu couldn't help but smile. "In your eyes, she is indeed very stupid, insecure, slow-witted, stutters when she speaks, is particularly timid, always has a gloomy face, and seems like a tasteless, unsophisticated woman with no presence at all."

Sakura Airi froze. Was she really that bad?

"But who says a backdrop can't have an interesting element?"

"Unbeknownst to us, she was secretly documenting her life with a camera. Because the sunset was beautiful, she hid in a classroom in the special teaching building to take pictures. Because the sports festival was important, she hid alone to secretly photograph others."

"Despite being a beautiful idol, she dresses in a very unfashionable way. When she encounters a pervert, she doesn't dare to fight back and runs away in fear. She even tries to deceive herself by wearing a trench coat and sunglasses, making herself look like a rice dumpling. When she is scolded online, she doesn't dare to confront him and tries to explain why. When faced with harassment, she chooses to read but not reply, thinking that this way she can avoid it."

"Even though she was cowardly and afraid, she still chose to attend my study group. Her grades weren't bad, but they weren't particularly good either. She was clearly struggling, but she would pretend 'I'm not worried,' afraid to ask questions, afraid to make eye contact with me, afraid that her lie of pretending to understand would be exposed."

"However, I still don't know much about her inner thoughts, or rather, it would be too presumptuous to speculate about what kind of person she is based on just a few words of conversation."

Hearing these words, Sakura Airi touched her face, as if something warm was flowing down her cheek.

It's so strange. I didn't intend to cry, but tears kept flowing. My whole body was trembling, and a comfortable warmth enveloped my tender heart.

Sakura Airi learned about Suzuki Tetsu's thoughts for the first time, and it was also the first time she realized that someone could see her that way.

"It seems Master has taken a liking to her." The girl's voice was extremely resentful. "After 'dealing with' this pervert tonight, maybe she'll throw herself at him. After all, Master isn't a pervert; he'll make her feel safe, right?"

Sakura Airi started to blush; she hadn't even thrown herself into his arms yet!

"Pervert?" Suzuki Toru asked, puzzled. "Who said I'm not a pervert?"

"Huh?" Both the girl and Sakura Airi were confused.

"I already said that the reason I harassed her with a secondary account is because I had the same idea myself. From the perspective of an idol, I quite like her."

"Wait, could it be that the master was originally a fan of hers?!"

"I should consider myself a new fan."

"No, no, no, this is too strange. Are all the things Master sends her true? Is the red bean paste a reflection of Master's true thoughts?"

"Some of it wasn't; it was just casual banter in the mood."

"..."

Sakura Airi was completely stunned. It turned out that Suzuki Tetsu really did have strange thoughts about her, and the messages she received were all Suzuki Tetsu's true thoughts?

The shift from Suzuki Toru deceiving her, to Suzuki Toru training her, and now to Suzuki Toru being a genuine pervert, was a huge shock to Sakura Airi.

"In that case, the master shouldn't abandon your alt account. Wouldn't it be better to just verbally flirt with her every day?"

"There's a limit to how much I can talk. Airi is feeling uneasy right now, and I can't just ignore her feelings and continue to act recklessly, can I?"

"It's not like we're really going to do it!"

"She has no idea that these are things that could become a reality in the future."

"But, doesn't the master actually want to do strange things to her?"

"..."

Sakura Airi desperately covered her mouth. She no longer felt sad or upset. After listening to Suzuki Toru's words, she believed that this was the Suzuki Toru she knew, and that his essence had not changed.

However, she never imagined that Suzuki Tetsu would be her fan, and that he would have such thoughts about her.

Sakura Airi panicked whenever she thought about how the messages Suzuki Toru sent her through his alternate account were real. It turned out that Suzuki Toru had always seen her that way and had always been suppressing his feelings.

No, she needs to go back quickly!

The girl, who hadn't run away before, now didn't care about anything else. She ran back to her room like a panicked deer.

Hearing footsteps, Suzuki Toru glanced back.

"She heard everything, Master." Manabe Shiho smiled slightly. "To even guess that, you truly are worthy of being Master."

As she spoke, she took Suzuki Toru's arm, bringing her slightly swollen breasts very close, and she could feel their softness. Even if they couldn't compare to Sakura Airi's size, they were still impressive.

The person Suzuki Toru just contacted was Manabe Shiho. Tonight's event can only be attended by someone who can be trusted completely; Kushida Kikyo is out of the question.

"After doing something like that, I should at least give her an explanation. I can't just tell her directly, so I might as well let her listen in." Suzuki Toru already knew that Sakura Airi was eavesdropping; in fact, he did it on purpose.

Despite her timid and submissive demeanor, Sakura Airi possesses a strong desire for change. Given the chance, she can convince herself to overcome her cowardice.

"That's terrible! In this way, she'll be completely in her master's hands!" Shiho Manabe was a little jealous. Although Toru Suzuki was setting a trap, at least he said it very nicely. She wanted to be fooled like that once too.

"Do you think I'm lying to her?" Suzuki Toru glanced at her but didn't pull his arm out of her embrace.

"Isn't that right?" Manabe Shiho felt a little doubtful. Since she knew that Sakura Airi was eavesdropping, she could tell a little lie and Sakura Airi probably wouldn't be able to tell and would be foolish enough to believe it.

Suzuki Toru saw through her thoughts and chuckled softly.

“This time I’m telling the truth; I really want to know more about her.”

Shiho Manabe stared in astonishment for a long while.

……

To make the performance convincing, Suzuki Toru stayed outside for a while longer, as if dealing with the last remaining troubles, before finally returning alone to Sakura Airi's room.

Ding--

The doorbell rang for a while, but Sakura Airi didn't come to open the door for a long time.
