After leaving the Discipline Committee, Lin En ran straight towards the Gehenna Canteen.

It was already early in the morning and most of the students had gone to bed, but the lights in the cafeteria were still on.

To be precise, the lights in the cafeteria's kitchen were still on.

It's a bit funny that the cafeteria where Fengxiang works provides meals for thousands of students. However, before Lin En came here, the only person who could really be of use in the kitchen was Fengxiang.

In other words, Fengxiang can be said to be maintaining the operation of the entire cafeteria by himself.

Of course, Fengxiang is not the only member of the canteen's supply department. There is also a student named Niu Mu Julie who assists Fengxiang in the work. But there is a fatal problem: this student cannot touch fire.

To be precise, she couldn't even get close to the stove, otherwise it would very likely cause some tragic accidents -

This was not only Lynn's personal experience, it even caused a major commotion.

However, although Fengxiang appears to be extremely capable, she is actually a person with limited abilities. Therefore, even though it is already early in the morning, she is still in the cafeteria kitchen preparing meals for the students tomorrow.

As the instructor of the supply department, Lin En should naturally help his students, just like he did in the previous few days.

"Ok?"

After gently pushing open the isolation door of the back kitchen, Lin En stopped and looked forward.

There, Fengxiang was reaching out to grab the dough on the chopping board and kneading it, but she seemed a little absent-minded.

Seeing Liquidambar like this, Lin En couldn't help but chuckle and walked towards the Liquidambar.

"Julie, go and rest first. I'll be ready soon."

Not sure if it was a chuckle or footsteps, Fengxiang remained absent-minded while speaking and turned her head to look behind her.

Seeing this, Fengxiang was startled at first, and then sighed helplessly.

"I thought you were going to be put in confinement for the whole night, so I had to hurry and prepare the ingredients for tomorrow."

"I am a law-abiding teacher. How could I be punished by them to be put in solitary confinement?"

Lin En answered with a smile and came to Fengxiang to help her deal with the rest of the dough.

Although Fengxiang can prepare meals for thousands of people by himself, the price he pays for it is that the taste is naturally very ordinary.

Fortunately, Lin En is not only Gehenna's only teacher, but also the only person who can help Fengxiang with cooking. Thanks to him, although Fengxiang's work is still heavy, it is much easier than before.

"Teacher Lin En is able to connect with people in the black market... How can this be called abiding by the law?"

Hearing Fengxiang's complaint, which was obviously a little dissatisfied, Lin En couldn't help but smile and tease.

"Besides, if they really punish me with solitary confinement, I will definitely come back even if I escape from prison."

As Lin En said this, he smiled at the girl who was about to say something.

"After all, if I stay in the Discipline Committee's confinement room, I won't be able to eat Fengxiang's cooking."

"That's right... I knew it was like that! After all, the teacher's arm has only just healed, and the food they prepared is definitely not as good for the teacher's health as the food I prepared for him! Yes! I knew it was like that!"

Looking at Fengxiang with a serious expression but a slightly blushing face, Lin En couldn't help but smile and started to knead new dough.

"But... Mr. Lin, is your arm really okay? I remember that Sena from the emergency medicine department said that your entire right arm was almost broken. If it was more serious, it might have to be amputated..."

"Don't worry, it's all good."

Hearing this, Lynn smiled and bent his arm towards Fengxiang.

"Although I can't lift anything too heavy for now, I can still do daily activities like cooking or shooting. Rather, I'm surprised that Sena-san was able to heal my arm in such a short time."

"Although Sena-san's words and actions are a bit strange, her medical skills are still very impressive!"

While chatting and laughing, the two of them prepared the ingredients for the next day.

Looking at the ingredients arranged in the freezer, Lin En nodded gently. However, just as he was about to turn around and say something to Feng Xiang, he found that the girl who had just stood beside him had disappeared.

But then Fengxiang came out of the lounge and handed him the cup in her hand with a smile.

"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Lin En. This is warm milk that helps you sleep. Would you like to try it?"

After hearing what Fengxiang said, Lin En took the cup from her hand without much hesitation and drank the milk in it.

"Hmm, this smell... maple. You also added some honey to the milk, right?"

"As expected of a teacher, that's exactly what you are saying."

After taking the cup back from Lin En's hand, Fengxiang seemed to have noticed something and suddenly spoke to him.

"Ah... Teacher, don't move."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Under Lin En's slightly puzzled gaze, the girl first put the cup on the table beside her, then took out a handkerchief from her pocket, walked in front of him, and gently wiped the circle of white foam around his mouth.

"I can handle this kind of thing myself..."

After realizing the truth, Lin En scratched his cheek in embarrassment.

For some reason, Lin En had had even more intimate contact with other girls before, but he had never felt as embarrassed as he did now.

"That's because the teacher never pays attention to himself."

Fengxiang said this, put away the handkerchief and gently scratched Lin En's nose, then smiled and withdrew her hand.

"It's just a little lesson. Although I know that the reason why the teacher caused so much commotion is because the teacher cares about us and is thinking about us. But teacher, don't forget that we also care about the teacher very much, okay?"

“…Keep it in mind.”

Hearing Lin En say this, Fengxiang smiled and poked his face.

"Since you helped the supply department find these inexpensive and high-quality ingredients, we'll stop here for today. You should go back and have a rest, as you still have to get up early to work tomorrow."

"Then Fengxiang, would you like to sleep with me? Maybe we can sleep better if we are together?"

"...I'm going to put ginger in the stir-fried potatoes I'm going to prepare for the teacher tomorrow?"

"I am so sorry."

Chapter 5: It's getting fierce, take another look

"Wow---"

Raindrops fell into this extremely dark alley, and through the alley one could see the street outside where fierce gunfire was taking place.

In the corner of the alley, a young man leaning against the wall was covering his bleeding shoulder with a grimace.

"Lynn..."

Hearing the mumbling of the girl with long light purple hair beside him, the young man curled his lips and chuckled.

"Don't worry, I'm your teacher. It's just a minor injury, it's nothing serious."

However, the young man's words did not seem to cheer up the girl, but instead made her look even more lost.

"Sure enough...is it because of me...if it weren't for me..."

"No, you're wrong, Atsuko."

Faced with the girl's self-destructive words, the young man chuckled.

"To live is a big proposition... Yazuko, have you ever seen flowers bloom?"

"……flower?"

Looking directly into the slightly confused eyes of the girl above her half-face mask, the young man smiled.

"If there is a sea of ​​flowers ahead of you, it would be a pity to miss it, wouldn't it?"

However, just as Atsuko was stunned by the young man's words and wanted to say something, she was interrupted by the sound of several footsteps approaching quickly.

"Azuko, you leave first, I'll cover you."

The young man, noticing the commotion, raised his gun towards the entrance of the alley without hesitation.

"Go out the other end of this alley and turn right when you see a trash can with an [X] on it. Saori and the others are nearby."

"What about you, teacher?"

"I told you, I am your teacher. Don't worry, I will be waiting for you in that sea of ​​flowers."

Looking at the calm young man, although Atsuko seemed to want to continue saying something, after hearing the footsteps getting closer, she finally gritted her teeth and ran towards the darkness deep in the alley.

But even so, her words still reached his ears——

"I'll be waiting for you too."

In response to Atsuko's words, Lin En remembered that he seemed to have said something else, but he seemed to have forgotten it.

Because in the next moment, he pulled the trigger at the enemies who had appeared at the entrance of the alley.

In the last shot of the dream, what emerged from Lynn's hand after he dropped his gun that had run out of bullets was a samurai sword with a strange scabbard that was transformed from the strange golden card.

However, at the moment when his right hand grasped the hilt of the knife, Lin En suddenly woke up from his sleep.

However, perhaps because he did not maintain good balance, he fell off the bed almost the moment he woke up.

After Lin En saw the interior furnishings in the room, he finally realized where this place was.

Everything he had just seen and heard was just a dream.

Even though everything that happened just now was a dream, it was not an illusion, but something that really happened and made him miss it a little.

“…I wonder how Atsuko and the others are doing now.”

After muttering to himself, Lynn stood up from the floor.

As he sat back on the edge of the bed, he subconsciously placed his hands on the bed.

But at this moment, he felt a soft and somewhat unfamiliar touch coming from his hand.

However, Lin En remembered that there should be nothing on her bed that was soft enough for her fingers to sink into.

And because it felt good to rub, he had rubbed it several times unconsciously.

"..."

Lynn looked at his hands nervously.

However, the next moment, what appeared in his sight was a beautiful girl with waist-length pink hair and devil-like horns, who was sleeping soundly in her bed.

At the same time, Lin En finally realized what he was holding at this moment, which was as soft and sticky as rice cake.

"…Why is Julie here?!"

The girl sleeping in his bed now is named Ushiomu Julie. Like Fengxiang, she is Lin En’s colleague in the supply department.

Although they have such a two-level relationship, they definitely haven't developed to the point where they can sleep in the same bed like this!

Probably... not?

But now no one can answer Lin En.

Besides, there was no changing the fact that Julie was lying in his bed.

Just as Lin En quickly pulled his hand back and was thinking about what to do next, a familiar female voice accompanied by the sound of the door opening came into his ears.

"Teacher Lin En, are you up?"

"Fengxiang, good morning!"

Almost instantly, Lin En raised his hands high as if in surrender. While greeting Fengxiang who came in, his brain began to work at high speed, thinking about how to explain this situation.

"Uh, this is...that..."

However, the petite girl with long dark purple hair and an apron who walked into his room seemed not to have noticed Julie lying on the bed, and greeted Lynn with a smile as if nothing had happened.

"Although I understand that you don't want to get up, but if you don't get up and wash up quickly, you won't have enough time to go to the cafeteria to prepare breakfast for the students, okay?"

Fengxiang first said this with a smile to Lin En who was sweating behind her, then turned to look at Julie's sleeping face who was sleeping next to Lin En.

“I clearly asked Julie to wake up Teacher Lin En, but she ended up falling asleep together like this… Julie is such a jerk…”
