Tokyo Soft Rice King.

At that moment, Akira Kuroba suddenly felt Kobayakawa-sensei's gaze, which contained the implication of 'keep this a secret'. Did she hear it?

Being recognized by Kuroba Akira was purely accidental. It was one thing that she couldn't prevent it, but she didn't want to spread the problem to other students and let them know that she had come to CM to cosplay as a magical girl, which was so embarrassing.

But this put Kuroba Akira in a very difficult position.

If the teacher's true identity isn't revealed, it really becomes like he's waiting for his prey in front of the women's restroom, and then he'll go up and chat up any pretty cosplayer he catches... Isn't that just perverted?

Teacher, you don't want your secret to be discovered, and I don't want to be misunderstood by everyone anymore either!

He had just had a misunderstanding with the twin sisters. If the other members of the Literature and Art Department thought that he had seduced a new woman in the short time he had been out looking for the future, their resentment, especially the class monitor's level of malice, would probably exceed the threshold.

So Kuroba Akira's brain worked at lightning speed, and he immediately came up with a reasonably plausible excuse.

"Actually, this Peach Sauce... is a senior from our school!"

"Ah, are you an alumnus of Hibiya High School?"

This creates a connection in terms of identity, preventing it from being perceived as the behavior of a player who tries to flirt with a beautiful busty cosplayer.

Motoko Kobayakawa immediately grasped Akira Kuroba's excuse, and cooperated by showing a friendly smile, making a very affected gesture, clasping her hands together and raising one leg, and then replying in a very affected voice.

"That's right! I heard you're also students at Hibiya High School? Wow~ I never expected to meet my juniors here! What a coincidence~"

"Yes! What a coincidence!"

In the future, she didn't find anything strange at all, and even thought that this 'senior' had a really lively personality, and immediately developed a liking for her.

"..."

Pfft... But Kuroba Akira spat it out in his mind.

Even if she is a different person in the future, in Kuroba Akira's eyes, the so-called Momo-chan is still Kobayakawa-sensei dressed as a magical girl, so seeing her performance, it is really hard for him to hold back, and he covers his face with his hands.

That usually serious, almost rigid, and passionate teacher who cares deeply about his students... is actually acting cute and adorable?!

This contrast is even greater than the dual personalities of Da Hongxiang and Xiao Honghong.

Motoko Kobayakawa was so ashamed to be forced to make such a fool of herself in front of her students, but in order to maintain her cheerful and lively senior student persona, she had no choice but to continue acting with her clumsy and exaggerated acting skills.

"Oh my~ So you two planned to come to CM together?"

In the future, I really hope that I can go on a date with Akira Kuroba alone, but unfortunately today is a group activity.

Since this Peach Sauce is a senior from the same school, we can introduce her to the other members.

The main concern is that I'm worried I won't be able to keep an eye on Kuroba Akira by myself in the future, so I'll need to ask my other sisters and my mother for help.

If Kuroba Akira were to cheat on her because of my lax supervision, I would bear the main responsibility.

Moreover, she herself does not want any more competitors.

All the girls who have feelings for Akira Kuroba and are aware of the messy relationships surrounding him share a common understanding: they are united against outsiders and refuse to let newcomers join them.

"It's not just the two of us! Today, all the members of our Arts and Literature Department are setting up a stall together. Senior, would you like to come and take a look? The paintings are very well done, and the passersby have given them great reviews!"

Then, they'll casually promote the comics they created and ask this beautiful cosplayer to help them sell some. They seem to have a clear vision for the future.

"The Literature and Art Department...?"

Motoko Kobayakawa then cast another questioning look at Akira Kuroba, as if to say, "Why didn't you inform me in advance about such a large-scale event for the entire club? I'm your advisor, aren't I?"

Akira Kuroba looked away guiltily... because everyone had indeed deliberately kept this matter from Kobayakawa-sensei.

Motoko Kobayakawa knew that Akira Kuroba and the others were drawing manga. After all, it was a huge project that took more than a month to complete. Even if she, as the advisor, didn't interfere much, she wouldn't be completely unaware of what the members were doing.

However, all she knew was that the manga drawn by Kuroba Akira and the others was intended to be submitted to the Shonen BOOM editorial department for a short story contest, and she was unaware that they were also going to exhibit in a commercial.

Otherwise, he would never agree to be a cosplayer, thus eliminating the possibility of running into his students, especially those from the clubs he manages.

Unfortunately, I still ran into them, and to make matters worse, there was a colleague among the students who could see through my disguise...

This truly proves Murphy's Law: what you fear most is what happens.

The reason why we didn't tell Kobayakawa-sensei was simple: "Slippery Girl" is a borderline ecchi manga, and CM is a 'bad activity' with a lot of R18 books. If the advisor teacher forbade us from setting up a booth, then we'd be out of luck.

In theory, R18 doujinshi are prohibited from being sold to minors, just like convenience stores don't sell cigarettes or alcohol to minors, but no one strictly adheres to this rule.

From a teacher's perspective, they would definitely want to avoid sending students to places filled with disharmony.

Then Kobayakawa-sensei was still the kind of teacher who was overly serious... Kuroba Akira and the others all thought that Kobayakawa-sensei would meddle in other people's business, so they decided to keep it a secret.

Anyway, it was an activity that started after the winter break, and it was organized spontaneously by the students. It was similar to going out to play together, and the school and teachers couldn't interfere.

But now it seems... Kobayakawa-sensei isn't so serious after all?

"Yes, the main members are all from the Arts and Literature Department, but her mother came too."

Kuroba Akira patted Mirai's little head, conveying to Kobayakawa-sensei that there were adults acting as guardians on their side, so she didn't need to worry about anything happening.

"I see……"

"You barely passed..." Kobayakawa-sensei's squinting gaze at Kuroba Akira carried this meaning.

Kuroba Akira breathed a sigh of relief; now he could say that the arts club activity had received permission from the advisor.

And then they started inquiring about Peach Jam's next plans.

"Is Peach Sauce exhibiting alone today? Or are you here to help sell doujinshi for an artist? If you don't have any appointments this afternoon, would you like to come and check out our booth?"

"This one……"

Just as Motoko Kobayakawa was about to answer these questions, Akira Kuroba interrupted her.

"In the future, if we don't leave now, we'll be late... Ah, we're already late."

When Kuroba Akira reminded the future, he glanced at the time and found that it was already 12:30.

If we continue chatting with Ms. Kobayakawa here, then Sesame Dumplings will have to wait.

"Ah! I'm sorry, Senior Peach, we have plans to meet up with our friends in person! We'll talk more later when we have the chance. Let's exchange contact information first!"

"Ah, this, um..."

However, Peach Sauce doesn't have her own social media account, since she's not a professional cosplayer and was forced to participate in the exhibition this time.

Therefore, she was only used as a means of communication for Motoko Kobayakawa, but if she told the students this, the secret would be exposed.

Kuroba Akira naturally noticed Kobayakawa-sensei's predicament and offered to help.

"Okay, Future, I already asked Peach Sauce for her contact information, but she didn't bring her phone. Look at her outfit, she doesn't have a pocket to put her phone in, right?"

"Ah, is that so..."

After looking around again, it seemed there really wasn't anywhere to put a phone.

Actually, Peach Sauce did bring her phone, but she put it in a rather special bag... that is, her breasts, which she tucked inside.

However, the gesture of taking it out in front of the students was too emotional, and I really didn't want to exchange contact information, so I went along with it.

"Haha~ I don't have my phone with me right now, but you can tell me where your stall is, and I'll go check it out later."

“Okay, our stall is in East 7th District. You’ll see it as soon as you go in. It’s in the first row. You’re welcome to come anytime… Let’s hurry up, Sesame Dumpling-san must be getting impatient.”

"Okay! Goodbye, Peach-senpai!"

Kuroba Akira waved goodbye to Mirai and then hurriedly headed towards the exit of East 8th District.

"Sesame dumplings...?"

Behind them, Motoko Kobayakawa's expression turned somewhat strange, as if she were saying how could such a coincidence exist in the world.

Then, following the students' departing figures, he finally made up his mind to follow them.

Upon arriving in the linked space, Kuroba Akira asked the future.

"By the way, have you two agreed on how you'll recognize each other in the future? What are Sesame Dumpling-san's distinguishing features?"

"Yes, she said she would be wearing a white coat, so she should be easier to recognize."

"White coats..."

Kuroba Minghuan tried it out. The link space itself wasn't very big, but because it was lunchtime, people were all out eating at the restaurant, so the flow of people was very large. To avoid being pushed away by the crowd, it should be on the edge... Ah.

found it.

But... uh...

Although Akira Kuroba had some suspicions when he met Kobayakawa-sensei, he was still surprised by the coincidence.

No wonder that serious-looking Ms. Kobayakawa would cosplay at CM. It's not impossible that it's her hobby, but she clearly feels ashamed even wearing a school uniform... so it's only possible that she reluctantly wore it to help her best friend.

And Kobayakawa-sensei's best friend, Kuroba Akira, knows that there is one in the school.

That's the loli teacher in the infirmary that Kuroba Akira and the class president often visited.

Sesame dumplings = Junko Ohno

Although it was indeed unexpected, we really couldn't pretend we didn't see it this time, since we had arranged to meet.

So even though he felt awkward, Kuroba Akira still brought Mirai to stand in front of Ms. Rai.

Junko Ohno also saw Akira Kuroba and, somewhat surprised, raised her hand to greet him.

"Hey, isn't this Kuroba boy? You're here for CM too? Is that your 'new outfit'?"

Junko Ohno grinned mischievously, teasing Akira Kuroba about changing women like clothes and subtly pointing out his womanizing ways.

It was also a way of telling the future person next to him, "This guy next to you is a womanizer," so that she would see through Kuroba Akira's true colors sooner.

Then she glanced at the future and found that it was a rare resource just like hers, so she teased Kuroba Akira about his taste.

"Huh, isn't this just as 'poor' as me? So you can do this too? Kuroba-kun, you like lolis too? Does that mean I'm within your protection zone?"

As expected, Teacher Luo is still the same as always, starting with dirty jokes and rambling... but it fits the atmosphere of the venue quite well.

Only in CM can you openly declare your XP without being seen as weird by others, unless your XP is too niche or unusual.

"Huh? Professor Ohno? You're here too... Wait, you're wearing a white lab coat?"

At this moment, Wei Lai finally realized that the petite figure in the white coat in front of her was probably her online friend, Sesame Dumpling, whom she was supposed to meet.

She pointed at the other person with her right hand in surprise, while covering her mouth with her left hand, asking a question with doubt and uncertainty, just like Kuroba Akira's reaction when she first met Kobayakawa Motoko dressed as a magical girl.

"Could it be... a sesame dumpling?"

Upon hearing her online nickname, "Sesame Dumpling," the cheeky and unserious health teacher widened her eyes, staring in disbelief until she stretched her neck out.
