My daily life in love is too contrary to my character.

Try to think about the problem yourself first or ask someone else who can solve it, or even ask her, instead of keeping focusing on Yuko Takanashi.

Thanks to her efforts, the situation was alleviated.

Could it be that the situation has changed again?

"It wasn't us at all!" Takeuchi Arisu said, becoming even more indignant. "Yesterday we did have a few questions we wanted to ask, but we couldn't get any answers!"

"What's going on? Explain in detail." Shiraishi Zexiu was a little confused.

"It wasn't even a boy from another class! For some reason, since this study session was open to the whole grade, a bunch of people came running over as soon as they heard that Takanashi was there."

This group of people clearly have ulterior motives; they're just here to get close to Takanashi. Who brings gifts when asking questions?

I had a question yesterday. I first asked the class monitor, but she didn't know either, so I could only hope to ask Takanashi. I waited in line with her for a long time.

As a result, everyone before me asked multiple questions at once, and in the end, I didn't even get to ask any! And after listening to the questions, I realized, "Shiraishi, you know my level, right? I'm probably in the lower middle of our class, but I could solve all those questions!"

Damn it, how do you calculate the average? Even my younger brother, who's still in elementary school, knows how to calculate it. How dare a student from a top high school ask that question!

The most outrageous thing was that the average answer to the question he asked was 180.5, and that person actually said something like:

"Oh, what a coincidence, it's exactly my height!"

Chapter 117 Math Teacher Shiraishizawa Hide (Bonus chapter for wanting to be Keqing-san's dog!)

"..." Shiraishi Sawa was speechless for a moment. Did he need to find a question with an average height of 18cm?

I suggest that guy just get 180.5 cm tattooed on his face.

"Such a clumsy method, Takanashi should be able to see it too, why don't you just help her drive these guys out?"

“We wanted to, but those guys directly asked Takanashi if she was willing to accept their questions. We all know that Takanashi basically doesn't refuse other people's requests, so she naturally said ‘yes’ and thanked us for our concern. What could we do?”

Helping others solve problems can also help your own learning, but at least the problems should be slightly more difficult. If it's a boring, basic problem, then it's a complete waste of time.

“We’re just classmates with Takanashi, and it’s not really appropriate to interfere after she agreed. Shiraishi, you’re related to her, so after discussing it, we think you’re the most suitable person to step in! So, are you coming to the study session tonight? If you come, we guys will have someone to ask you questions.”

"I almost forgot that Takanashi and I are related. Okay, I'll go tonight."

"Oh right, Shiraishi, this is a question I couldn't answer yesterday. Could you take a look at it for me?"

.......

It's not that I'm annoyed by their pursuit of Yuuko Takanashi, it's mainly that it's interfering with Yuuko Takanashi's homework so I can copy it... wait, there's no homework for the final exams...

So, my main goal is to help my classmates solve their problems?

Forget it, I won't make up excuses anymore. Shiraishi Sawa Hide just doesn't like them.

Takanashi knew there was a problem but didn't ask me to solve it, and even told me "it's okay". I'll have to give her a good talking to when I get back to the apartment tonight and lie to her that I'll go check the rooms tonight!

After helping Arisu Takeuchi solve his problem, Hideaki Shiraishi didn't tell Yuko Takanashi that he was going to go, but waited until after class in the afternoon.

"Takanashi, I've changed my mind. I'm going to attend the study group." After the teacher left, Shiraishi Sawa said to Takanashi Yuuko with a smile.

"Huh? Shiraishi-kun, why are you suddenly joining?"

"I'll help you with some trouble while I'm studying."

Seeing that Yuuko Takanashi was about to say something, Hideaki Shiraishi gestured for a pause.

"Stop, you don't need to say anything, just go to the classroom."

The reason I chose to say it now, instead of during the day, is because I was afraid that Yuuko Takanashi would feel like she was causing me trouble and refuse.

"Class President Hashimoto, may I sit here?"

After entering the discussion room, Shiraishi Sawa said to Hashimoto Nana, who was sitting next to Takanashi Yuko.

"Ah, okay, Shiraishi-kun, please sit here."

Although somewhat surprised, Hashimoto Nana still stood up and gave up her seat.

Really not wanting to study outside of class time, Shiraishi Sawa placed his basic chemistry book on the table, took out his phone, put on his headphones, and started browsing TikTok.

Then, turning to Takanashi Yuuko, who was sitting next to him and seemed nervously reading a book, she said:

"Don't get distracted, Takanashi. Study hard and try to get first place in your grade on the final exam."

"I see......."

Just as Takeuchi Arisu had predicted, less than three minutes after sitting down, male faces that Shiraishi Sawa Hide didn't recognize began to walk into the classroom. One of them even came straight to Takanashi Yuuko with a textbook in one hand and a box of small cakes in the other.

"Takanashi-san, may I ask you some questions?" The boy placed his textbook between Shiraishizawa Hide and Takanashi Yuko's desks, and stroked his hair, thinking it looked good. "As payment for your answers, here's a cake for you."

The boy looked expectantly at Takanashi Yuuko, but before she could respond, he suddenly realized that the cake in his hand had been taken away. Only then did he notice that the seat next to Takanashi Yuuko had been taken by another boy.

“Black Forest cake,” Shiraishi Sawah said to the boy after taking off one of his earphones and admiring the cake. “It’s my favorite flavor. Hey, classmate, if you don’t understand any questions, ask me. I’ll help you solve them.”

"This..." The boy was stunned for a moment, "But Takanashi-san..."

"Please don't worry, my grades are even better than Takanashi's. I can definitely solve your problem. Tell me the question."

“Yes,” Takanashi Yuko finally spoke, first giving Shiraishi Sawa Hide a grateful look, then saying to the boy, “Kawashima Kosuke, this is Shiraishi Sawa Hide, who has consistently ranked first in our monthly and midterm exams. He can definitely help me solve your problem.”

Hideya Shiraishizawa gave Kosuke Kawashima a 'kind' smile, then took a bite of the cake he had just opened. Perfect timing, he hadn't had dinner yet.

At the same time, he gave Takanashi Yuuko several math problems of different types that he had selected during the day. They all had the common feature of being very difficult, but they were all likely to be arranged as the final, most challenging problems. It took Shiraishi Sawa Hide himself some time to master them.

"Takayuki, could you help me with these problems? Solve them all and then explain them to me."

"Ah, oh, okay." After a moment of confusion, Takanashi Yuuko nodded, took the math problem, picked up a piece of scrap paper, and began to work out the calculations.

"Alright, Kosuke Kawashima, tell me your question."

"Okay... alright, Shiraishi-kun, how do you solve this problem..." Kawashima Kosuke smiled very reluctantly, picked up his textbook, and began to stammer as he pointed to the problems he 'didn't know'.

As expected, they were all very simple math problems, only a few were a little complicated. Shiraishi Sawa Hide began to teach them very seriously:

"Let's look at this question first. Change 'If A is greater than B, then B must be greater than C' into its contrapositive. That's a very good question, a very sophisticated one."

"Huh?" Shiraishi Sawa's evaluation baffled Kawashima Kosuke. This was just a very basic question in the assignment, one that he actually knew how to answer. What level was it?

"First of all, if we want to modify this problem, we definitely need to use L'Hôpital's rule. Kosuke Kawashima, do you know L'Hôpital's rule?"

"I don't know, but... is this necessary?"

"Yes, you need to. Don't doubt the ability of the top student in the grade. This question of yours is very likely to be the most challenging math question this year. I'll give you a 'simple' explanation of L'Hôpital's rule now."

The content was already beyond the scope of advanced mathematics, and Shiraishi Sawa deliberately used extremely absurd and profound mathematical terms, going around in circles.

"Finally, we'll use the squeeze theorem to squeeze it—remember, squeeze hard! That'll give us the answer to this problem: 'If C is less than or equal to B, then B must be less than or equal to A.' Do you understand, Kosuke Kawashima?"

(Ahem, I forgot if that's right, but it should be. Also, the squeeze theorem is indeed a mathematical theorem.)

"Huh...? Uh, I didn't quite understand." Kawashima Kosuke, who was already completely confused by L'Hôpital's Law, was almost unable to solve this problem that he had mastered.

"You didn't understand? Let me explain it again."

"No need! No need! I've almost mastered it. I'll just go back and review it. Thank you."

Chapter 118: A Straight to the Point and Solve Problems (Bonus Chapter for the Stars Falling!)

"Don't mention it. Helping a classmate is the right thing to do. Please continue, Kawashima Kosuke. Is there anything else you don't understand?"

Shiraishi Sawa's face is becoming increasingly 'kind'.

"No need!" Kosuke Kawashima's face was a little pale. "I'll take the rest of the questions back and think about them myself. That question just now gave me a lot of inspiration."

After finishing his sentence, Kosuke Kawashima bowed and quickly fled the classroom.

Several classmates who had been quietly discussing something at the back of the classroom exchanged glances upon seeing this, and then gave each other a thumbs up.

In the brief pause between explaining the problem, a small line of boys had already formed in front of Takanashi Yuko's desk, while Takanashi Yuko herself was completely absorbed in the math problem.

Shiraishi Sawa smiled and said to the student in first place, "Student, Takanashi is busy. What question do you want to ask? I'll help you solve it."

He nudged Yuuko Takanashi with his elbow, asking her to testify for him.

Takanashi Yuuko looked up, stared at Shiraishi Sawa Hide for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, this is Shiraishi Sawa Hide. As you may know, he's quite famous at school. His grades are better than mine, so you can ask him any questions."

The boy who came in first place gritted his teeth and reluctantly handed the question to Shiraishi Sawa, who quickly forced him to leave using the same method.

"Next one."

The boy immediately shook his head. "It's okay, I'll wait for Takanashi-san. I'm not in a hurry."

"Okay, but you might have to wait a while. It'll be quick, probably in one night. The questions I asked were a little difficult."

After finishing his explanation, Shiraishi Sawa glanced at Takanashi Yuuko's progress. Not bad, she'd reached the second question, but was currently stuck. So he gave her a hint:

"Birdplay, this type of problem looks complicated. You need to consider the case where there is more than one auxiliary factor, and it may not necessarily connect the points given in the problem. So you may need to create a point yourself."

"I see, no wonder. I never thought of that. Thank you, Shiraishi-kun." Takanashi Yuuko happily wiped away the marks from the question and continued studying.

Shiraishi Sawa smiled and said to the boy who refused to let him teach him the questions, "Takanashi has helped me solve the second question. There are ten questions in total. You guys can wait patiently. If anyone wants me to teach them a question, you can contact me."

Putting his headphones back on, Shiraishi Sawa continued his unfinished TikTok journey, finding Takanashi Yuko's account to see how good her videos were.

Two hands suddenly appeared on his desk. Shiraishi Sawah reluctantly took off his headphones. "Hello, do you have any questions for me? I'm an all-rounder, you can ask me any final exam subject."

The other party, however, showed no interest in the matter, and glared fiercely at Shiraishi Sawa, saying, "Do you find this amusing?"

Shiraishi Zexiu leisurely untangled and put away the headphone cord, then stood up. Now it was his turn to be in a superior position, and the other party's momentum instantly vanished.

Looking down at the other person, Shiraishi Sawa smiled and said, "It's a lot of fun, and we'll keep playing until the end of the semester."

Takanashi Yuuko stopped what she was doing and looked anxiously at Shiraishi Sawa Hide.

"Don't fight! If you fight, Shiraishi might get punished by the school and have to pay for medical expenses."

"Is it fun to deliberately teach classmates the wrong way?"

“How do you know it’s wrong? My conclusion is exactly the same as the reference answer,” Shiraishi Sawa glanced at the question circled in the other person’s hand. “You can’t do this kind of math problem? I see, you just don’t understand my solution method. Come on, I’ll teach you.”

"Shiraishi! Shiraishi!" Takagi Ryo, who had just entered through the door, rushed in front of Shiraishi Sawa, pushing aside the unfamiliar boy.

"Quickly, tell me how to solve this problem. Fanyi finally asked me a question, I have to solve it. Hurry up, I'm going to tell her I'm going to the bathroom."

“Understood,” Shiraishi Sawa glanced at the question, which involved a relatively complex chemical formula, and said, “First this, then that.”

"Received! I have no way to repay your kindness, so I won't." After remembering the method, Takagi Ryo rushed out of the classroom again.
