Tokyo: Restricted Tutor

“How dare you speak? Your father is the Principal, and you’re joining in with everyone else’s mischief?”

“Didn’t your father tell you that art classroom is very dangerous?”

Tomoda Minako turned her head to look at Shiratori Kashi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, and immediately spoke.

Hearing Tomoda Minako say this, Shiratori Kashi was unconcerned, and said with a laugh, “Hmph, my father is the Principal, and yet a supernatural incident occurred at the school. Do you think my father would be comfortable if this matter isn’t investigated thoroughly?”

“Facing pressure from his superiors, he hasn’t been eating or sleeping well these past few days. I went to the art classroom for his sake, otherwise, I wouldn’t go to such a dangerous place. This time, I’ve helped my dad with such a big favor, he’s probably overjoyed.”

Shiratori Kashi stopped there, not continuing. Although she said that, she didn’t think that way in her heart.

They solved the case, but putting herself in such a dangerous situation, her father would definitely scold her if he found out.

However, thinking that she had helped her father solve this matter, Shiratori Kashi immediately felt that being scolded was worth it.

“Thankfully, Saki Rei-kun went with you all, otherwise, if it were just you girls, you might have disappeared for nothing, let alone finding those missing students.”

“Alright, I won’t lecture you about this. In the future, if you encounter such things, please don’t go, understand?”

“I’m saying this for your own good, and if something happens to you, how will your families live?”

“Your parents raised you this big, not to let you take risks.”

“……”

Tomoda Minako began to lecture everyone.

Upon hearing Tomoda Minako mention their families, everyone was momentarily dazed.

Putting themselves in their relatives’ shoes, they indeed didn’t want anything to happen to them.

“Alright, Minako-neechan, we understand.”

“By the way, Saki Rei-kun and them went ahead, they should have arrived by now, right? Minako-neechan, you’re driving too slowly, aren’t you? There are no cars on the road late at night, so just drive a little faster.”

Shiratori Kashi knew that Tomoda Minako was concerned about them. Recalling what had happened earlier, she felt a wave of lingering fear.

So she immediately changed the subject.

“I was startled by you all. My heart is still pounding. It’s a good thing nothing happened to you. You were truly reckless.”

Tomoda Minako rolled her eyes at Shiratori Kashi, then sped up.

Not long after.

Once everyone had arrived at Tomoda Minako’s villa, they all chose rooms to rest.

The next day.

Hojo Saki Rei had just woken up when Asahi Rinka arrived at his room.

When he saw Asahi Rinka crouching by the door, staring at him, seemingly in a daze, Hojo Saki Rei couldn't help but feel speechless.

“Rinka-san, don’t you think it’s impolite to stare at me like that?”

Hojo Saki Rei asked, and was about to get up.

However, at that moment, Asahi Rinka, who had been standing there, suddenly walked towards him.

“Saki Rei-kun, who are you calling impolite?”

“Last time, who was it that saw all of me? What’s wrong, I can’t watch you sleep?”

As she spoke, Asahi Rinka deliberately stared at Hojo Saki Rei’s lower body.

“What’s the use of just looking?”

“Coming over to set fires first thing in the morning, watch me take you.”

Seeing Asahi Rinka’s face turn crimson, Hojo Saki Rei found it incredibly cute.

Although they had known each other for so long, and both had feelings for each other.

However, he and Asahi Rinka had never had a substantial relationship.

It was early morning, and he hadn't had any 'meat' for a long time. Seeing Asahi Rinka, dressed lightly, appear in his room, he had only one thought: to 'eat' Asahi Rinka.

“Ah!”

Seeing Hojo Saki Rei slowly move towards her, Asahi Rinka quickly turned and ran.

This situation had happened many times when she was at Hojo Saki Rei’s house. If she ran too slowly, she believed Hojo Saki Rei would definitely not be polite this time and would keep her.

Although today was also Saturday, she was willing to give herself to Hojo Saki Rei.

However, she was ordered to come find Hojo Saki Rei; Tomoda Minako had sent her to call Hojo Saki Rei for breakfast.

So, Asahi Rinka ran while hastily turning back to Hojo Saki Rei and saying, “Minako-neechan told me to call you for breakfast. I’ve delivered the message, so I’ll head back first.”

Looking at Asahi Rinka’s retreating figure, Hojo Saki Rei couldn't help but shake his head, a wry smile on his face.

This girl, truly...

He didn’t even know what to say anymore.

After a quick wash, Hojo Saki Rei went directly to Tomoda Minako’s villa.

As soon as he entered, he saw the so-called breakfast.

On the table were just a few simple pieces of sushi, nothing else.

Seeing the sushi, Hojo Saki Rei had no interest at all.

He really didn’t like that kind of food.

“Minako-neechan, by the way, we don’t necessarily have to eat breakfast, why did you wake us up so early? We haven’t slept enough.”

Hojo Saki Rei had just sat on the sofa when he heard Shiratori Kashi complain that Tomoda Minako had woken her up too early, and as she spoke, her eyes seemed to be full of sleepiness.

Seeing Shiratori Kashi like this, Hojo Saki Rei knew without thinking that she must not have slept enough last night.

As for why she didn’t sleep enough, it must have been because she couldn’t fall asleep after returning.

Of course, there was another reason: it was very late when they returned, so they probably only slept for less than three or four hours from last night until now.

They were already tired from class yesterday, and then last night they went to the school’s art classroom and stayed at the Police Department for so long. For Hojo Saki Rei and the others, the sleep time was indeed insufficient.

“You still say that? If it weren’t for you all last night, I could have slept until morning. But you caused such a big incident late at night, and I haven’t even scolded you. I even made you breakfast this morning, so be content.”

“Of course, the reason I called you up is because we’re going to the hospital to visit Hotta-dōgaku in a bit.”

When Tomoda Minako mentioned Hotta, everyone became quiet at that moment.

They had indeed solved the case last night, finding the missing students and thus saving them.

But Hotta was injured because of it and was still in the hospital.

“Minako-neechan, how is Hotta doing?”

When Hotta was mentioned, Asahi Rinka’s eyes were filled with worry.

It should be known that Hotta had transferred to Sakuragi High School because of her, and during this time, she had helped her a lot.

Now, because of this incident, Hotta was hospitalized, so she was naturally very worried about Hotta’s safety.

“Yes, Minako-neechan, is Hotta alright?”

“I’m sorry, Minako-neechan, I just forgot about Hotta. Let’s go to the hospital to visit her now.”

Asahi Rinka’s voice fell, and everyone else also looked at Tomoda Minako at this moment. Shiratori Kashi also remembered that Hotta was still in the hospital and quickly apologized.

Seeing everyone’s worried expressions, Tomoda Minako immediately shook her head.

“It’s fine. The hospital has already sent me a message. Hotta-dōgaku is not in any life-threatening danger, just a minor injury. She only needs to be hospitalized for two days before she can be discharged.”

Speaking of this, Tomoda Minako thought of the other students and continued, “It’s just that the other students weren’t as lucky as her.”

“Those students have been missing for so long, and they ate very little every day and were subjected to various abuses. It’s impossible for them to be discharged from the hospital in less than ten days to half a month.”

Hearing Tomoda Minako say that Hotta was fine, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But hearing about the situation of the other students, they were at a loss for words.

However, they didn’t feel much sympathy for those students.

After all, those students, knowing how dangerous the art classroom was, still risked going there to play some spiritual game.

If they hadn't been so playful, such a thing would never have happened.

As a result, Hojo Saki Rei and the others had no sympathy for those students at all.

All of this was their own doing.

“As long as Hotta is fine, I don’t care about the others. If it weren’t for them, Hotta wouldn’t have gotten hurt.”

Asahi Rinka spoke bluntly at this moment.

As Asahi Rinka’s words fell, the others also nodded in agreement with what Asahi Rinka said.

“Exactly, their injuries are what they deserve, but as for Hotta, we went to the art classroom to find those people.”

“Moreover, Hotta is our good friend.”

The others also spoke up.

Hearing them say this, Tomoda Minako didn't know what to say.

After all, what Asahi Rinka and the others said was not wrong, and those students indeed brought it upon themselves. If they hadn’t wanted to risk playing something exciting, they wouldn’t have been captured by others.

“Through this incident, I suppose no one will believe in spiritual games anymore, right?”

Tomoda Minako shook her head and said this sentence.

If this case had not been solved before, many students would probably still believe in the existence of spiritual games, and also believe that those who disappeared were taken by ghosts.

But after this case was solved, those students should also know that there are no ghosts or gods in this world at all. Even if some things seem like supernatural incidents, they are all man-made.

“By the way, Minako-neechan, wasn’t this case considered solved?”

Just as Tomoda Minako and the others were still thinking that no one would believe in ghosts and gods anymore, they heard Hojo Saki Rei say this.

Suddenly, the gazes of all the girls shifted to Hojo Saki Rei.

They seemed to be somewhat puzzled by what Hojo Saki Rei said.

In their view, finding the missing students basically meant the end of the matter.

But now, Hojo Saki Rei actually said that this case had not been solved.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Hojo Saki Rei knew what they were thinking, so he directly said, “Although we have found the missing students, haven’t the masterminds not been found yet?”

“If these masterminds are not found, it will be a potential threat to society.”

“After experiencing this incident, they naturally know that continuing to do such things at Sakuragi High School is definitely not feasible, so they will definitely go to other places and harm students in other places.”

“In this incident, they only installed chip bombs on the necks of those missing students, which prevented those captured students from dying. But what if they directly kill people next time?”

Boom!

The faces of the bewildered crowd suddenly changed drastically upon hearing Hojo Saki Rei’s words.

This was simply because the situation Hojo Saki Rei described was bound to happen.

If those masterminds weren’t caught, they would definitely continue to harm people.

“The Police Department should arrange for people to catch them, and since the missing students have been found, they will definitely be able to get clues from those students, or learn the identity of the masterminds.”

“Alright, this is not something you should be thinking about. In not much time, you’ll also have your college entrance exams. Your most important task now is to study.”

“Are you full? If you are, let’s go to the hospital to visit Hotta-dōgaku.”

Tomoda Minako said again at this moment.

Hearing Tomoda Minako say this, everyone stood up.

They hadn't been full yet, but once this topic came up, everyone lost their appetite.

So, the group drove two cars directly to the hospital.

Inside the ward.

At this moment, Hotta was in a state of sleep.

After what happened last night, Hotta was startled when she woke up and found herself in the hospital.

However, later, she learned from the Police that they had rescued the missing students, and only then did her emotions stabilize.

“Hello, are you here to visit this patient?”

“You need to fill in some information here, after all, this patient’s identity is special, so…”

“Alright, you can go in.”

While Hotta was still sound asleep, Hojo Saki Rei and the others arrived outside her ward and were only allowed to visit Hotta after signing. (End of chapter)
