"Friend?" Kiba raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "Is it a man or a woman?"

"Female." Shinichi answered truthfully.

After hearing this, Kiba's expression became subtle, and he muttered, "It seems that your emotional experience, Shinichi-kun, is much more complicated than I thought. Just now there was an entangled ex-girlfriend, and now there is another female friend."

Shinichi stroked his hair conceitedly and said with a smile: "Hmm, now that I think about it, it is true. Maybe it is because I am too charming?"

"Tsk~ You're always like this, hitting a pole and getting on the shelf. Come on, follow me inside and take a look."

"Yes ma'am~"

Shinichi and Kiba entered the cosmetics area which was filled with a wide variety of items. Generally speaking, once women entered this area, men would have little to do, after all, few men would pay attention to cosmetics.

However, Shinichi does not seem to be among them. Although he himself does not care much about these things, in Mai's world, Miss Kitaoka dragged him shopping and forced him to cram in some knowledge related to cosmetics.

At least, it made Shinichi remember a few of the products that she mentioned as being very useful and of high quality.

"Hmm... This bottle of skin care lotion is very effective. Miss Kiba, would you like to try it?"

"Huh?" Kiba looked at the skin care products Shinichi chose for him with some surprise, thinking that he was making a joke of himself. However, after taking the skin care products and taking a look at them, Kiba discovered that although he had never used this bottle of skin care products, it was indeed a product of a brand with a good reputation.

This man is actually seriously recommending skin care products to himself?

"Oh... Thank you, Shinichi-kun. Hiss... Where did you know this brand?"

"Oh, my friend told me."

"Hmm... let me guess, is it still that female friend?"

"Correct."

With an intriguing smile, Kiba put the skin care products recommended by Shinichi into his shopping cart, and then asked curiously: "Shinichi-kun, can you tell me who is the girl who taught you these skin care products?"

Shinichi, on the other hand, was eyeing up other skincare products, and replied nonchalantly, “Ah… a woman with somewhat underdeveloped breasts, don’t worry, that kind of woman is not my cup of tea, and it’s obvious that my heart would rather pursue ladies like you, Ms. Kiba.

So, as your 'boyfriend', Ms. Kiba, you don't have to worry about anyone taking me away from you~"

Kiba curled his lips and turned his head and snorted: "Humph, I was just helping you at that time, don't really think of me as your girlfriend..."

Shinichi turned around and asked with a smile, "Then how can I become your boyfriend, Ms. Kiba?"

"……are you serious?"

"You can take me seriously~ I've always been true to my desires, and for now, I'm very serious about my lower body desires."

Kiba rolled his eyes immediately, made a disgusted expression and said: "Then I just don't like men who can't control their desires... By the way, don't you still have your sister? You said that you and your sister will live together forever, but you still want to hit on me, aren't you too greedy~"

"Ah, yes, I am indeed greedy... Or rather, I am not good at rejecting, especially a beauty like you, Ms. Kiba. I can't help but leave a place for you in my heart..."

This gave Kiba goosebumps, and he quickly waved his hand to stop him, "Stop, stop, stop! You're acting like that when I give you a taste of your power! What you say is so corny!"

Seeing this, Shinichi immediately showed a slightly aggrieved expression and muttered: "Well... I admit that I like to act sometimes, but what I said just now was the truth..."

"Then I'll tell you the truth, between us..."

"Ok?"

Kiba looked at Shinichi and wanted to say "impossible", but when the words came to her lips, she wavered. Why was she wavering? Was she really attracted to this man? No... No, she should... She would never have any thoughts about him...

Then why...

"What between us?" Seeing that Kiba was silent and did not respond, Shinichi asked curiously.

After a struggle in his heart, Kiba finally said: "I only regard us as friends... and, Shinichi-kun, before you do anything, don't always think about your own happiness. Don't forget that when you say these words to me, your sister is still waiting for you at home..."

In the end, Kiba chose neither a direct response nor a direct rejection. She felt very confused at the moment. She always felt powerless when facing the man in front of her.

Obviously this guy was frivolous, gangster-like, and a constant stream of lies, cheating her time and time again, but... she found that she had now accepted the fact that there was such a person around her.

Some people don't want such a person to leave them...

And that feeling of powerlessness made her alert. She couldn't get too close to this man because he was too mysterious. She had to be alert...

So... in the end, maybe as an ordinary friend, maybe it would be better to use Ai to shut Shinichi up, which was the only way she could think of...

"Ah, I know, of course I know, so I got a basket of it here to take back as a gift for Ai...By the way, Ms. Kiba, do you have any recommendations for skin care products suitable for girls?

I don't know much about girls' supplies, only what I've heard from others. Ms. Kiba, can you teach me? In exchange, I'll share some of what I know from others, how about that?

In response to Shinichi's unexpected response, Kiba felt for a moment that everything he said was like hitting cotton...

She really, always had no way to deal with this man...

Chapter 221: Takahashi Shinichi, Attacks as a Teacher

"Um...are you the newly transferred Chinese teacher? Um...you look quite young, young man. How many years have you been working here?"

In Sakurai Junior High School, the principal sat at his desk looking at the file form handed over to him. He glanced at Shinichi who was standing in the hall in a suit, adjusted his reading glasses and asked.

In order to make his image more convincing as a "teacher", Shinichi also asked Kiba to prepare a pair of glasses for him, of course, without prescription. He put on the glasses, put on a suit, and trimmed his flamboyant hairstyle a little more neatly.

In Shinichi's words, he looks just like a human.

Facing the principal's question, Shinichi answered according to the information in his "file": "Well, I have been working in this profession for four years since I graduated."

"Ah, four years! Although the time is short, you have won so many honors. Takahashi is really a talented person. Our school has increased the number of students this year, and the teaching staff is a bit tight. This is the time when we need young talents like you.

Ah~ Speaking of young talents, our school just hired a science teacher who is also not very old not long ago. Hahaha~ He is a very serious teacher~ Many students like the new teacher very much~

Hmm... it's easy to get off topic when you're older, so let's get back to your position, Takahashi-kun. Hmm... I'll take a look at the school's class schedule to see which classes I can let you lead..."

Faced with the various certificates obtained from the lumberyard that were almost indistinguishable from the real ones, the principal had no doubts at all. He put away the files with satisfaction, then picked up the documents on his desk and began to read them while adjusting his reading glasses.

Perhaps because of his old age, the old principal's work efficiency was obviously worrying. Only when Shinichi's legs were a little numb from standing in the front hall did he finally arrange for him to be in charge of the class.

Finally, with the principal's amiable but slow farewell, Shinichi came out of the principal's office with a long sigh, and went to his own office with his appointment slip.

According to the principal's arrangement, my class schedule is mainly focused on the students in the first grade. Sakurai High School is divided into ten classes per grade, for a total of thirty classes.

However, due to the shortage of teachers, the number of teachers available for each subject in these 30 classes is very limited. Even for core subjects such as Chinese, mathematics and English, one teacher will teach four or five classes. It is basically normal to fill all the classes in a day.

In this situation, every additional teacher can greatly relieve the pressure on other teachers, so the arrival of a new teacher like Zhenyi is basically welcomed by the entire teachers' office.

The more casual ones just shook hands and talked with a smile, while the more enthusiastic ones had already begun trying to find out some gossip about Shinichi, which made Shinichi quite annoyed.

Fortunately, Shinichi started working soon, and for a while he was able to avoid such enthusiastic interpersonal relationships that were a little difficult for him to handle.

"Ha... Class 2, Grade ..." Holding the lesson plan, Shinichi walked quickly in the aisle, looking for the class he would be giving a lecture.

The rate of people turning their heads to look at him along the way was quite high. After all, it was rare to see a tall, strong and handsome guy in a suit like Shinichi, which caused a lot of gossip among the young girls on the street.

"Hey hey hey... look at that guy, I've never seen him in school before! He's so handsome! And he's so tall! Do you know who he is?"

"How should I know? But it should be a new teacher. I heard that the class next door had a new Chinese teacher. Could it be him?"

"Ah!? Why do Class 2 get all the good things? Last time, that uncle-like science teacher taught their class, and this time, such a handsome guy also teaches their class! Ahhh! Jealousy has made me unrecognizable!"

"Alas, don't you think about it? Classes 1 and 2 are special classes. The best teachers in the entire grade are concentrated in the special classes. We regular classes can only drink some of the soup they leave behind..."

"Ugh... Damn it! I've decided! In order to be able to watch the handsome teacher give lectures! From today on, I will study hard! I will be enrolled in the special class!"

"Wow~ What a noble ideal... So, after school this afternoon, you're not going to the concert?"

"...Ahem, I still have to go to the concert..."

"Didn't you say that you would study hard for the open-book exam from today on?"

"Well...study requires a balance between hard work and relaxation, right? So, in order to study more seriously in the future, I will reward myself one last time today! After today, I will put aside all distractions and study hard!"

"Wow, that's awesome, I support you (no emotion)."

Shinichi could basically hear all the discussions on the roadside clearly. It was quite interesting to be noticed by the kids.

Finally, following the corridor of the first-year classrooms, Shinichi finally arrived at the door of Class 1-2.

Shinichi had heard other students talking about the special class in private before, and was still wondering what was so special about it. But when he really arrived at the classroom door, he indeed found that this class was different from other classes.

That is the strong discipline. Basically, Shinichi did not see any noisy shouting during breaks like in ordinary classes. After pushing open the door, although there were students chatting with each other in the classroom, it was not noisy.

Shinichi's arrival caused the entire class to pause. The students who were chatting with each other were surprised and confused, and a little nervous, when they saw a stranger suddenly come into the class.

Of course it was a bit of a pity that this class was not Ai's, and Shinichi didn't see any familiar faces.

However, looking at the strange reactions of these students, Shinichi still smiled slightly, walked to the podium, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, the get out of class is still over. I just came to see you in advance. You guys continue talking, don't worry about me."

As he spoke, Shinichi picked up the chalk from the podium and began to write his name on the blackboard.

While Zhenyi was writing, the other students didn't dare to say much. They didn't relax as Zhenyi said. Instead, they returned to their seats obediently, looking at the new teacher with 70% curiosity and 30% nervousness.

In such a subtle atmosphere, the class bell rang, and Shinichi just finished writing the last stroke of his name.

"Dingling, ringing, ringing..."

As the bell rang, Shinichi threw the chalk ends into the chalk box. On the other side, the students greeted Shinichi at the call of the class monitor.

"Hello, teacher!"

"Well, hello, students, please sit down. I'm sorry for taking up some of your free time, so I hope you won't complain about me. As an apology, I promise that I won't delay this class!"

Shinichi's witty remark relaxed the atmosphere in the classroom. The students sat down with a rather surprised expression and looked at the new teacher.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Shinichi Takahashi. From today on, I will be your language teacher. Of course, I am not as well-versed in literature as you think. I can clearly say that I know nothing about literary classics.

On the contrary, if any of you like light novels, you can talk to me, the teacher~"

Shinichi's peculiar self-introduction stunned all the students. It was the first time they saw a Chinese teacher claiming that he knew nothing about literature.

A brave and socially active student asked curiously, "Teacher, what light novels do you like?"

As soon as this question came out, a hint of laughter immediately rose in the class, and they were ready to start laughing. Unexpectedly, Shinichi touched his chin and responded: "Well...Re:Zero, I prefer the plot-driven ones. Nowadays, many light novels like to be driven by settings, which always makes me tired."

"Eeeeeee!!!"

This teacher is actually serious! ?

Some students who were more familiar with otaku culture were immediately shocked, and their shocked colleagues were also a little surprised.

Shinichi clapped his hands and said, "It's just right. The teacher has already talked about his hobbies. You can also talk about your preferences. In my opinion, the focus of the Chinese subject is actually to develop students' love for literary works.

Literary works have never been limited to form. The Nobel Prize in Literature can be awarded to a pop singer. It can be seen that the carrier of literature is not important, what is important is the content.

Well, I want to know what your literary preferences are, whether it's the light novels I mentioned earlier, or comics and animations, or games, or movies, TV series, paintings, music, traditional literature, popular novels, whatever you like, just tell me~

I may not be able to remember your names, but I should be able to remember what type of literary works each of you likes. Hmm~ Let’s start with the girl in the first row of the first column~”

"Ah... OK, OK! Teacher!"

"Hey, don't be nervous, just tell me what kind of literary works you like?"

"Um... OK, teacher, my name is Zhu Xingyi, and I like... I like music."

"Pop? Classical? Avant-garde? Rock?"

"Pure...pure music..."

"Not bad, not bad, very tasteful ~ Next one ~"

……

In such an interactive situation, Shinichi did nothing else in the class except going through the names of every student in the class. Among them, Shinichi could not remember many names.

However, with this special interaction, Shinichi's name was remembered by all the students in Class 2. Suddenly, the rumor of a new Chinese teacher who was handsome, interesting and easy-going spread throughout the grade.

After finishing a class, Shinichi returned to the office to rest.

The office where Shinichi works is the teaching office of the first grade of high school. Although it is written as the first grade of high school, most of the teachers there will teach other grades. As a new teacher, Shinichi has not yet arranged classes for other grades.

However, according to the experience shared by the senior teacher next to me, this is only temporary. Two months later, after the holiday, the principal will arrange senior courses for me.

The teacher sitting next to Zhenyi was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing glasses and with a slightly hunched back. From time to time, he would make a gurgling sound due to phlegm stuck in his throat, followed by a violent cough that could echo throughout the office for a long time.

Therefore, this teacher always has more than two packs of tissue paper on his desk.

The other teachers are basically accustomed to such noise and generally express understanding.

This teacher, like Shinichi, is a Chinese teacher. However, from conversations with other teachers, Shinichi learned that the reason this teacher always looked haggard was because of the class he was in charge of.

Among the students, Class 90 is known as the "abandoned class"...

Chapter 222: Zhenyi Lecture Hall has started!

Although Shinichi had never done any teaching-related work before, he found that he seemed to have a talent for teaching people?

He didn't even need to prepare much in mind. When he arrived at the podium and saw the group of students below who were full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge, he could naturally start to lead the classroom atmosphere without even having to prepare anything in mind.
