Teacher Xia Lai is also teaching in Kivotos today

"But the results should be the same..."

"It's okay. As long as they don't know, then this matter doesn't exist."

Faced with Lin En's logical and self-righteous speech, Alona couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

"The teacher is really cunning. But I am the teacher's companion. If I don't do it, who will do it?"

"I think the term 'accomplice' would be more appropriate at this time."

"Hmm! I've already used very complimentary words to describe it!"

Seeing Alona's angry look, Lin En chuckled and started the motorcycle again, ready to continue investigating along this road.

However, at this moment, a sudden burst of intensive gunfire rang out not far from him.

"Why is there still a fight at this late hour?"

While Lin En was talking to himself with a little confusion, Alona, ​​who had discovered something through the surveillance, quickly spoke up.

"Teacher! Akane-san is being besieged by the Iron Helmets!"

"Thank you, Alona!"

Hearing this, Lin En did not hesitate at all. He immediately turned the direction of the motorcycle and drove towards the place where the gunshots were heard.

Chapter 7 I am Xia Lai’s teacher, a few bullets don’t matter!

"Now! Use the anti-aircraft guns! Don't save it, hurry up!"

Although Qianxiang subconsciously rolled on the ground and hid in another shelter when she realized something was wrong, the explosion caused by the shell still made her look a little dirty.

"Anti-aircraft guns? No, it's the Flak41 Kai! These guys... I'm afraid they aimed to capture me from the beginning!"

Although Akane had been forewarned by the opponent's words and the whistling sound of the shells, when the real anti-aircraft artillery came at her, she was able to dodge the direct hit of the shells with her early reaction.

Even so, the shock wave caused by the explosion of the shell still blew her a long distance away. Even though she struggled to hide behind the nearest bunker, she was hit by a series of gunshots in the process and she didn't even have the strength to raise her gun.

"Oh no... I'm afraid I'm going to cause trouble for everyone..."

Akane shook her head violently to stay awake and muttered to herself in annoyance.

Just as the leader of the Iron Helmets was about to continue the attack, one of her subordinates suddenly ran up to her.

"Boss! Someone outside just sent a report that someone drove a car in here!"

Before the leader could say anything, a slightly harsh engine sound reached their ears.

"Whoaaah!"

The leader couldn't help but gasp when he heard the screams accompanying the engine sound.

"Can't you stop the other party!?"

"No! The opponent is too fast! Bullets can't hit him at all! Not to mention anti-aircraft guns!"

"We must not let them rescue this guy! If they can get in, they can definitely get out! Do your best to stop them. I will take that guy away right now!"

Akane, whose consciousness was beginning to become a little fuzzy, heard the anxious voices of the Iron Helmets approaching. She originally thought it was the members of the Strategy Committee, but before she could even smile, she heard the familiar sound of an engine.

"Is this... the teacher is here? No, no... I've already said that to you... this isn't worth it at all!"

Just as the Iron Helmets were about to reach the bunker where Akane was, a motorcycle rushed out from the Iron Helmets and mercilessly knocked away the Iron Helmets members closest to Akane. The leader who was approaching Akane with these members was glad that he had dodged the attack, and immediately ran away without looking back.

Seeing this, Lin En did not continue to chase. He parked the motorcycle across the side of the shelter, jumped off the motorcycle, and helped up the fallen Qianxiang.

"I didn't expect that I would have to work overtime after just taking a short walk late at night."

Faced with Lin En's deliberately humorous words, Qian Xiang was speechless for a moment.

"Teacher, I told you not to come..."

"Okay, stop! Don't say anything now. Also, don't mess around again in the future. Do you understand?"

After wrapping Qianxiang tightly in his arms like a princess, Lin En quickly stood up and prepared to ride his motorcycle to escape.

But now that so many people from the Iron Helmets are watching, how could they give them a chance to catch their breath?

"Now! Shoot them and make them lose their ability to fight!"

Hearing the words of his ignorant subordinate, the leader of the Iron Helmets was horrified.

"Wait a minute! That adult may not be able to withstand bullets--"

However, her words were too late, as several guys who had no sense of propriety or had forgotten important things had already pulled the trigger.

"Fuck—"

The moment Lin En picked up Qian Xiang from the ground, he instantly felt the impact from the back, and Qian Xiang in Lin En's arms even clearly saw several bullets hitting his back!

"teacher!!!"

"I'm... ahem, Xia Lai's teacher. A few bullets won't matter!"

"How can it be okay? Please..."

At this time, Qianxiang, whose consciousness was still a little fuzzy, has completely woken up.

"Please... don't die because of me!"

After seeing this scene, the leader of the Iron Helmet Regiment fled without looking back.

"This is a serious matter! Retreat! Retreat quickly! Run as far as possible before the Federal Student Union sends heavy troops to arrive!"

Seeing that someone seemed to have really died, the people in the Iron Helmets began to panic, and the guys who had just fired the shots dropped their weapons, screamed and fled into the alley, disappearing into the night.

But at this time, Qian Xiang had no intention of caring about the fleeing Iron Helmets. She, who had originally yelled at Lin En, not only did not have the slightest resistance to his princess, but instead hugged Lin En even tighter, with clear tears sliding down her eyes.

It was not until now that she finally let go of the last bit of prejudice she had against Lin En, but it seemed... it was already a little too late.

"Huh... Really, I can't stand it."

Lin En, holding Qian Xiang, was sitting on the ground, his back leaning against his motorcycle, and he couldn't help but laugh bitterly.

"Even when I was in Gehenna, where the people were simple and honest, I was never shot..."

In fact, it’s not that Lin En has never been shot, but that was a long time ago.

Hearing Lin En's words, Qian Xiang, who had misunderstood, suddenly felt that every word he said hit her heart hard.

"How could it be...Teacher...actually for someone like me..."

Looking at Qian Xiang crying in his arms, Lin En chuckled and reached out to wipe the tears from her cheeks.

"I've told you all, you are all my important students. And protecting students is my job as a teacher!"

"I'm sorry... I... My personality has caused so much trouble to the teacher... and everyone else. If it weren't for me... the teacher wouldn't have... It's only now that I understand the teacher's sincerity and how stupid my thoughts were! So..."

As she said this, Qian Xiang had already dropped her gun and placed her hands on Lin En's shoulders.

"So I beg you to stay alive! Don't you still want to rebuild Abydos with us?! Please..."

As if he heard some noise, Lin En breathed a sigh of relief.

"Akane...it's okay, they're here...I'm a little tired, let me get some sleep first..."

"Do not……"

Looking at Lin En with his eyes slightly closed, Qian Xiang's tears, which had been suppressed, suddenly burst out.

"Akane? Sensei? Where are you?"

At the same time, the members of the Countermeasures Committee who received the message from Lin En finally arrived at the scene. They were first surprised by the traces of fighting at the scene, and then immediately ran towards Lin En's conspicuous motorcycle.

“No… don’t, ahhhhhh!!”

At the moment when Qianxiang cried out, the faces of the people in Abydos who finally saw this scene turned pale instantly!

Chapter 8 The Foolish Teacher and the Unhappy Cat

"Well……"

With a slightly uncomfortable groan, Lynn slowly opened his eyes.

As his vision gradually became clearer, the familiar white ceiling of the Abydos school building came into his sight.

Almost in an instant, he recalled everything that happened last night.

"... Damn it, luckily I developed the habit of wearing a bulletproof vest when I was in Trinity and Gehenna, otherwise I would be in such a bad situation."

Feeling the pain coming from his back, Lin En couldn't help but take a breath.

Although bulletproof vests can block the penetrating damage caused by direct bullets, the impact force carried by the bullet will still penetrate the bulletproof vest and injure his body.

However, the pain caused by the impact reminded Lin En of some past events.

For example, a "big sister" type student who was heroic in the battlefield showed a terrified look when she was helping herself to remove the bullet from her arm.

"Now that I think about it, it seems like I haven't felt this way for a long time."

Although he said so, Lin En had no intention of experiencing it again. You know, whether it was being hit by a bullet or taking out the bullet, it was extremely painful, and he was not a masochist.

"I have to be a little more careful next time..."

As Lin En was about to get up from the bed, he immediately noticed the unusual weight on his arm.

When he looked closely, he found a little black cat lying on his arm and falling asleep.

As if sensing Lin En's movements, Qian Xiang's body trembled violently, and then she immediately opened her eyes.

In an instant, their eyes met directly.

If it was Qian Xiang before, she would have blushed and scolded him, then stood up and left the room. But at this moment, she seemed like a different person, and she didn't even think of avoiding Lin En's sight.

"Teacher...you're really okay...that's great. I was so worried. Fortunately, you just fainted..."

"Although I may seem a bit reckless and out of touch, I'm not the kind of person who does things without thinking."

"Who else would drive a motorcycle into the middle of a battlefield except for a brainless guy!"

Although she said so, Akane's grip on Lynn's arm showed no sign of loosening.

"But... I'm glad you're okay, Teacher Lin En. Also, I won't be angry like that again, so... Teacher Lin En, don't do such dangerous things again, understand?"

Hearing this, Lynn chuckled and reached out his other hand to rub Akane's head.

"Don't worry. As a teacher, how could I just abandon you obedient and sensible students like this?"

Feeling Lin En's caress, Qian Xiang's face flushed slightly, but she still continued to talk to him "relentlessly".

"Stop using sweet words! Who knows, you might do something dangerous for someone again! I have to keep a close eye on you..."

Akane lowered her head as she said this and hugged Lynn's arm.

"...Where are you from, cat?"

However, Qian Xiang did not respond to Lin En's slightly teasing words.

After taking a closer look, he realized that the cat hugging his arm had fallen asleep again at some point.

"I'm afraid she didn't sleep all night last night..."

After saying this with a smile, Lin En turned his head and looked at the tightly closed door of the room.

"So, you four are just going to eavesdrop and spy outside like this?"

"Ah... As expected, the teacher found out."

Along with Hoshino's slightly lazy words, several other students of Abydos were standing outside the open door of the room.

Seeing this, Lynn put his index finger in front of his lips, then pointed at Akane who was sleeping with her arms around his.

After seeing his actions, except Hoshino who made an OK gesture to him and Shiroko who gave him a thumbs up, Nonami and Ayane both showed an "I understand" expression and nodded with a smile, then closed the door again.

However, after thinking back to their different expressions, Lin En had an inexplicable strange feeling.

"…Why do I feel like I've been misunderstood?"

After thinking for a while and failing to figure out the answer, Lin En looked around and reached out to pick up the tablet computer on the bedside table.
