Service Club? Just like you guys, you want to step into the whirlpool of the band?

He was originally a little curious about how Lenai found this place so accurately, but when he walked out the door and saw Shizuka Hiratsuka leaning against the wall, he instantly understood everything.

"Helping students is my duty as a teacher." Hiratsuka Shizuka shook her hair, trying to act serious but couldn't help laughing. "Your expression just now was quite nice."

She was referring to the reaction on Asaba Ichinose's face when she saw Kaname Rakuna.

"Peeping, is this your evil taste, Mr. Hiratsuka?"

Asaba Ichinose's automatic counterattack function was triggered, and he blurted out subconsciously.

"What are you talking about, brat! I just saw it accidentally."

Shizuka Hiratsuka tapped the ground with her toes, feeling a little guilty.

"Unintentional? Does that mean that the scene has disappeared from your mind, or is there a possibility that you will recall it again?"

"Want to know if I took any secret photos? Forget it, that's boring... Besides, I don't want to bother with people like you."

Hiratsuka Shizuka pretended to be magnanimous, but in fact she didn't want to make a bad impression in front of the junior high school students, otherwise she would have beaten them up with a punch.

How dare you talk to the teacher like that!

"Thank you for not arguing with me. Otherwise, I would have considered calling the Metropolitan Police Department and accusing you of intrusion."

Asaba Ichinose did not hold on to it because he knew that Shizuka Hiratsuka would not do such a thing. The reason he said these things was just a revenge for Shizuka Hiratsuka's behavior of mocking him just now.

"Yu, you're lying."

However, he didn't feel proud for long before Lenai, who had keenly sensed something, exposed him.

"... Lenai, I didn't say..."

I almost forgot that Lenai was here. I knew that this child had an unusual characteristic: her intuition was extremely accurate, so it was almost impossible to deceive her with lies.

Perhaps playing word games can circumvent this?

"I was serious."

Asaba Ichinose, who had never lied to Rakuna Kaname before, tried it.

“That’s the same thing.”

The result is obvious. Lenai doesn't give him any face at all.

“Pfft…Hahahaha.”

Seeing that someone was finally able to punish Ichinose Asaba, Shizuka Hiratsuka could no longer hold back her laughter.

Especially this deflated expression, it's really funny.

There was also a sound of suppressed laughter coming from the door of the activity room, but Ichinose Asaba didn't notice it.

""

With Rakuna Kaname around, he didn't dare say much and could only accuse Shizuka Hiratsuka of such immoral behavior in silence.

The expression on Ichinose Asaba's face seemed to say, "Isn't it funny?"

Chapter 30: Interesting Woman/Another Request

"Ha...hahaha, sorry, sorry, Ichinose, your expression just now was so funny. I didn't expect you to have moments like this. Hahaha, 咎循VI似六78栮覇ha."

After seeing the solemn expression on Ichinose Asaba's face, Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was lying by the window in the corridor, covered her stomach and tried to calm herself down.

Meanwhile, Kaname was still staring at him, "Yu, you can't lie."

"Ichinose Asaba sighed with a headache, "I understand."

"Ahem." Knowing that she shouldn't mess around any more, Shizuka Hiratsuka took a deep breath and looked at the two of them. "Since I've already delivered the person, I'll leave Lenai to you. Remember to explain clearly if there's anything you need to say. After all, Lenai-chan is also an important person to you, right?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka put on the temperament of a teacher and was no longer as casual as before. She stepped forward and patted Asaba Ichinose's shoulder, and rubbed Rakuna's little head at the same time.

This made Yukinoshita Yukino, who was peeking through the crack in the door, very envious, but she could only bear it.

"I understand... Thank you, Mr. Hiratsuka." This time, Ichinose Asaba didn't say anything stubborn. Instead, she gently shook Lenai's wrist and said, "Lena, let's go."

"Bye, fun girl."

When Kaname Rakuna passed by Shizuka Hiratsuka, she did not forget to turn around and wave.

"It's better to use women here."

Calling a 27-year-old single woman a girl? Regardless of whether it's appropriate, even if it's actually applicable, wouldn't it feel weird?

At least Ichinose Asaba couldn't stand it, so he corrected Kaname Rakuna's grammatical errors, just like he did before.

"Bye, interesting woman."

Yao Le Na was quite obedient. After changing the address, he waved his hand again. Seeing this, Shizuka Hiratsuka in the distance had veins popping out and couldn't help but want to rush up and beat up Asaba Ichinose.

"Tsk...why bother with these details at a time like this? Even if you're wrong, I'll turn a blind eye!"

This is the pain of being a Chinese language teacher. In the past, she would correct any grammatical errors she saw, but this one...

She really can't do it!

It is said that age is a taboo for women and should never be mentioned unless absolutely necessary. Shizuka Hiratsuka naturally cares about this too, so after being exposed, she suddenly felt like crying.

After the two walked away, Shizuka Hiratsuka walked to the door of the activity room with a heavy heart and knocked, "Come out if you've seen enough."

In fact, she had already discovered that these people were eavesdropping, but she just didn't have the courage to expose them.

"We weren't eavesdropping!"

After the door was opened, Yuigahama Yui looked around with a somewhat guilty look in her eyes.

"Hey, didn't you already say it..."

Hikigaya Hachiman felt helpless because this matter had been recorded in the allusion "There is no silver here".

"As a minister, I was just trying to stop their impolite behavior to prevent them from doing something more impulsive."

Yukinoshita Yukino spoke righteously, not afraid of Hiratsuka Shizuka's gaze at all.

"Okay, stop pretending. If you don't go back now, the school gate will be closed soon."

I originally wanted to scare them, but I didn't expect their reactions to be so boring. There was nothing I could do, Shizuka Hiratsuka could only let them do what they had to do.

After hearing this, Hikigaya Hachiman and Yuigahama Yui fled without any hesitation to avoid being dealt with by Ichinose Asaba who might return later.

"What are your plans next, Yukinoshita?"

When Yukinoshita Yukino was about to leave, Hiratsuka Shizuka calmly walked up to her.

"What do you want to do?"

Yukinoshita Yukino looked over with some curiosity.

"I'll give you a ride and talk about some things."

"Isn't Hiratsuka-sensei allergic to cat hair?"

Yukinoshita Yukino did not refuse, but she did not change her mind because of Hiratsuka Shizuka's request.

You must go to a cat cafe. If the other person wants to come along, then you can come along, provided that they are not allergic to cat hair.

"Of course not, why are you saying that?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka shook the car keys, somewhat confused as to why Yukinoshita Yukino asked her this.

In the end, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't want to explain.

But she soon found out, because the first thing Yukinoshita Yukino did after getting in the car was to change the navigation destination to a nearby cat cafe.

So that's what you mean... I didn't expect that Yukinoshita is actually a cat lover. She is indeed different from that guy Haruno.

After arriving at the destination and stopping the car, Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at Yukinoshita Yukino who walked into the store with familiarity, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

The two sisters are very different in character and interests.

"Hiratsuka-sensei, are you afraid to come in?"

At this moment, Yukinoshita Yukino, who had already bought and disinfected cat food, glanced at Shizuka Hiratsuka who was still outside the door.

"Come on, come on. Could you please stop talking like Ichinose all the time?"

After entering the store, paying, and buying some cat food and disinfecting it, Shizuka Hiratsuka followed Yukinoshita Yukino and prepared to go to the second floor.

"Then you may have misunderstood, Mr. Hiratsuka. In my opinion, Ichinose's vocabulary hasn't been updated to the point where I can patch it."

"Also, Hiratsuka-sensei, if you have anything to say, you can say it now."

Otherwise, when she sees Maomao, she will focus on filling the void in her heart.

"You should have seen what happened to Ichinose today. This is the first time I've seen that guy with that expression."

When it comes to such a headache, she wants to smoke, but when she thinks that this is a cat cafe, Shizuka Hiratsuka has to take her hand back that is touching the cigarette box.

"What do you want to say, Mr. Hiratsuka?"

"Could it be that the famous Yukinoshita couldn't guess what I meant?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at her with a playful look on her face.

She didn't believe that Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't guess what she meant, otherwise she would have refused in the corridor and would not have asked her to accompany her to such a place.

It's easy to deal with smart people, but it's different with Yukinoshita Yukino, because you have to learn how to pull before you can communicate with her.

As I said, neither of these two sisters is easy to deal with.

One rarely speaks the truth and likes to tease others, while the other mostly speaks the truth and is likely to drive others crazy when others hear it.

""

Yukinoshita Yukino was silent, as if thinking about something.

Shizuka Hiratsuka just waited like that, not in a hurry.

Finally, after about five or six seconds, Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes regained their spirit and she looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka, "Then this is another request."

"No problem, feel free to contact me if you encounter any difficulties."

Shizuka Hiratsuka patted her chest and made a serious promise.

I originally thought that it would take some time to get Yukinoshita Yukino to agree to this matter, but I didn't expect it to be so easy.

The process was so smooth that she was even a little surprised.

P.S.: The next two chapters are a major turning point and have already been written, so you can look forward to them! In short, there is still a lot of information, all of which is very useful.

P.S.: Also, there's the bounty. I always feel like the recommendation and monthly votes are so few. Will I have more drafts than I owe by Sunday? Can you guys give me some tips? If not, I'll just give you some cat cookies.

Chapter 31: The Poetry Boat Built in the City

Inage Seaside Park.

There was no shop selling matcha parfait on the way from Sobu High School to here, so Ichinose Asaba could only buy a matcha cake for Kaname Runa first.

Looking at the girl humming a song comfortably while eating the matcha cake in her hand, Ichinose Asaba's thoughts seemed to go back to the time when she was in SPACE.

At that time, he stood inside the bar, and when there were no customers, he would quietly watch Lenai eating matcha parfait beside him, or pull him to practice guitar together.

Sometimes, Lenai would even sneak out of school just to play the guitar more in the store, even though he was usually in school at that time. But the problem was that every time Lenai was sulking, he would have to get him a matcha parfait to appease her. After all, the old man had a stubborn temper and would never back down on matters of principle.

"Yu, do you want to eat?"

The white hair exuded a dazzling luster under the setting sun. Kaname Rakuna came to the beach and enjoyed the sea breeze. She used the plastic fork in her hand to divide a small half for Ichinose Asaba.

"I'm not hungry."

Asaba Ichinose shook her head and took out a tissue she carried with her to wipe the matcha cream off the corner of Kaname Rakuna's mouth.

He was originally supposed to go to work at Fanxing tonight, but since this happened, he can only take another day off.

Upon learning of the situation, Ichichi Xingge was not surprised, but readily gave him a day off and told him to make sure to get a good rest.

Then came Yamada Ryo and Ijichi Nijika, both of whom sent messages to inquire about the situation and strongly requested to video chat with Kaname Rana. However, just as he was about to connect, the video was intercepted by Ijichi Hoshika who suddenly appeared on the screen, saying that there were customers in the store, so the phone was temporarily confiscated.

In this way, Ichinose Asaba can stroll with Kaname Rakuna on the beach like they are now.

Feeling the salty and humid smell of the sea breeze in the air,

Kaname scooped up a handful of sand from a distant beach, intending to scatter it, but it was too wet and stuck to her hands.

She didn't like this feeling.

"Yu, help me fix this."

Ask Lenai to stretch out her little hand.
