I, Aki Tomoya, will not be a simp.

We really need to talk to the tutor at the cram school about this.

Moreover, Aki Tomoya couldn't give a definite answer as to whether Kirisu Mafuyu was actually a teacher at Ichinose Academy.

Since it concerns the academy and its students, Aki Tomoya felt it necessary to inform the academy about the matter.

"A teacher at Ichinose Academy?"

Harumi Junko was taken aback at first, and then a thoughtful expression appeared on her face.

Looking around, the teacher that Aki Tomoya mentioned was no longer there; she had arrived too late.

"He claims to be a teacher from Ichinose Academy, so he's probably here for Furuhashi-kun."

As Aki Tomoya spoke, he couldn't help but mentally mutter a complaint.

When I went downstairs earlier, I saw that Kirisu Mafuyu looked like she was scouting the place.

He then told Harumi Junko what had happened.

"I understand about this matter. Thank you for telling me, Anki. Mr. Tsubota and I will handle this. It's getting late, so Anki should go home soon too."

Chapter 93 Talents That Should Not Be Wasted (2/4)

The appearance of Kirisu Mafuyu has caused some headaches for Aomine Academy.

Although they couldn't be completely sure whether the other party was actually a teacher at Ichinose Academy, the school was still in a bit of trouble considering that it was a well-known high school for college entrance exam preparation in the Tokyo metropolitan area.

The academy is the second school for students preparing for exams, or even the main battlefield, but a small place like Aomine Academy is still much weaker than Ichinose Academy.

Fumino Furuhashi, who was the main reason for this, was completely unaware of the matter.

She went to school as usual the next day, unaware that her tutor had checked on the situation at Qingfeng Academy the night before.

Ichinose Academy is a well-known high school in Tokyo with a high college entrance rate. Its VIP recommendation system attracts many outstanding students and also stimulates competition among students.

The learning atmosphere and the students' motivation at this school are far superior to those at Toyonosaki Academy, where Aki Tomoya attends.

In terms of average deviation and learning atmosphere, college-preparation-oriented high schools are undoubtedly better than comprehensive high schools.

Fumino Furuhashi is famous at Ichinose Academy because no one there can rival her talent in the humanities.

Meanwhile, there is also a famous student in the sciences at this school.

Speaking of Fumino Furuhashi, she has already explained the situation to the school because of her choice of major and has received their help—tutoring from Mafuyu Kirisu.

While receiving tutoring from Mafuyu Kirisu, Fumino Furuhashi is also attending cram school outside of school.

"Yesterday's final test score was thirty-five. If I listen carefully to Mr. Kirisu's lecture today and go to the cram school for a remedial test tomorrow, I should be able to get forty points, no, thirty-eight points will do!"

Fumino Furuhashi muttered to herself on her way to the student counseling room.

The tutoring at Qingfeng Academy was quite effective, and there were also teachers providing guidance at the school.

With this two-pronged approach, Fumino Furuhashi is becoming increasingly confident in her ability to pass the math exam.

Fumino Furuhashi attended Mafuyu Kirisu's tutoring session as scheduled.

She wasn't alone there; there was another girl as well.

Before Kirisu Mafuyu arrived, Furuhashi Fumino started chatting with the girl next to her.

Not long after, Kirisu Mafuyu arrived at the student counseling room and began providing after-school cross-tutoring to one humanities genius and one science genius from the academy.

"Guqiao, you've made great progress lately."

Kirisu Mafuyu suddenly said.

Fumino Furuhashi has indeed improved, but this improvement is not enough; it's just that she's far behind the other girl present.

If possible, Kirisu Mafuyu still felt that Furuhashi Fumino should make good use of her talents, and of course, the other girl present also felt the same way.

"By the way, Furuhashi-kun attends a private school outside of school, right?"

Kirisu Mafuyu suddenly asked about this.

Fumino Furuhashi looked up, not quite sure how to answer.

Meanwhile, Ogata Rizu, the academy's science genius, asked curiously, "What kind of academy?"

Fumino Furuhashi's progress was also noticed by Rizu Ogata, who felt that her own tutoring results had never been ideal compared to Fumino's.

Could the problem lie with the teacher?

Thinking about this, Riju Ogata became curious about the school that Fumino Furuhashi attended.

Faced with their curiosity, Fumino Furuhashi replied shyly, "It's a very good academy. The teachers are very patient, and everyone else is working hard together. There are even students preparing for the University of Tokyo and Keio University there!"

These words didn't mean much to Rizu Ogata, but they made her feel that the school Fumino Furuhashi attended must be pretty good.

However, Kirisu Mafuyu didn't think so.

"Suspicious. Would a school like that have students preparing for the entrance exams to Tokyo University and Keio University?"

Kirisu Mafuyu murmured in a voice only she could hear.

She didn't think that a small place like that could send students to the University of Tokyo and Keio University. Moreover, the University of Tokyo was negligible, but Keio University alone had a huge problem.

After receiving this information from Fumino Furuhashi, Mafuyu Kirisu became increasingly suspicious.

As a teacher and tutor to two of the school's geniuses, she felt it necessary to verify the tutor's teaching level when the students were receiving after-school tutoring.

She didn't want Fumino Furuhashi to be held back.

Although the tutoring at the academy seems to be effective, there is still a big gap between ideal and reality, and Kirisu Mafuyu still tends to persuade Furuhashi Fumino to change her mind.

"Especially that boy in our school who's preparing for the University of Tokyo entrance exam, he's amazing. Not only does he complete the plans assigned by the teachers perfectly, but he's also incredibly disciplined and organized in his efforts to get into the University of Tokyo. And he only started studying seriously in his second year of high school! With him around, everyone feels a little ashamed if they don't work hard!"

Fumino Furuhashi sighed again at this moment.

The atmosphere at Aomine Academy was great. Fumino Furuhashi felt lucky to have found it during summer vacation and then returned. At the same time, her hopes were also higher.

And speaking of which, something interesting is that everyone in the academy has their own unique characteristics.

To give a few examples, among the teachers, not to mention Mr. Tsubota's "magic," there's also Harumi Junko, a student who failed the entrance exam for the Department of Humanities at the University of Tokyo.

Among the students, she was one of them; she was clearly good at humanities but chose to take science exams.

The other two, Kudo Sayaka and Aki Tomoya, plus her, are, in Kudo Sayaka's words, the three giants of the academy.

And she, Fumino Furuhashi, is the most troublesome, which is something that makes Fumino Furuhashi quite ashamed.

"It's a boy, it can't be that person, can it..."

Kirisu Mafuyu seemed lost in thought, because Furuhashi Fumino's words reminded her of the boy from last night.

But now is not the time to talk about these things; we should be properly counseling these two girls in front of us.

The midterm exams at the end of October are just around the corner. We'll use the results to advise you both when they come out.

But before that, fulfilling one's duties as a teacher is the priority.

Kirisu Mafuyu thought that once the midterm exam results came out, and their respective scores in the humanities and sciences came out, the two of them would be able to change their minds.

The contrast is something they themselves can surely understand.

Kirisu Mafuyu did not have such thoughts and did not teach them properly. On the contrary, it was precisely because she taught them properly that she discovered their extreme talents.

"The results of the exams should be available after the midterms."

At this point, Kirisu Mafuyu could only hope that the two girls in front of her would reconsider their decision after the midterm exams.

Their individual talents should not be wasted; that would be a huge loss for them!

Chapter 94 All-out War! (3/4)

More than half of October has passed, and the midterm exams for Toyonosaki Academy are scheduled for around the end of October.

Aki Tomo wasn't too worried about the midterm exams because he had been studying all along.

Have you looked at the materials I showed you last time?

In the library, Aki Tomoya opened a reference book on arguments and asked his friend, Uego Yoshihiko, a question.

Last time, he gave the other party some information about C-level and D-level universities.

Most of them are humanities-related, with media being the most common.

"I saw it, it gave me a terrible headache, but thanks anyway!"

Uesugi Yoshihiko scratched his head. He hadn't expected Aki Tomo would also help him prepare those things. While feeling touched, he also wanted to see if he had any potential.

"No need to thank me. It was my teacher at the academy who helped me organize it. I'm just passing on what I've learned."

Aki Tomoya shook his head.

He didn't have that much time to prepare those things, and the information he had looked up before didn't apply to Yoshihiko Kamigo.

Therefore, we should thank Mr. Tsubota of Aomine Gakujuku for this.

Having been a tutor for so many years, Mr. Tsubota is naturally adept at answering questions about university entrance exams.

It's much easier to leave these kinds of things to professionals.
