Teacher Xia Lai is also teaching in Kivotos today

In this large black bag, in addition to several folders and similar items that were obviously used to store paper documents, there were also bundles of banknotes.

"Baizi...you weren't just busy taking the cash and not taking any documents, were you?"

Faced with Lin En's somewhat helpless inquiry, Bai Zi shook his head slightly.

"No, the money was stuffed in there by the bank staff without permission when we were packing the documents. I had already taken out most of the documents I had put in the bag, so there was nothing in the bag."

Bai Zi said this while pointing to the pile of documents scattered on the table.

"We just took inventory. In addition to the documents, there are about 500 to 600 million in cash in these bags."

After taking a look at those bulging black bags, Hoshino said this to Lin En.

As if she couldn't bear the atmosphere in the activity room, or perhaps in order to seek Lin En's consent, before he could ask, Qian Xiang spoke to him impatiently.

"Yes, as long as we use this money to repay the debt, we can pay off more than half of it in an instant, right?! In this way, the interest we need to pay every month will instantly be much less, and it will be easier to pay off the debt, right?!"

Before Lin En could say anything, Ayane patted the table and spoke to Akane seriously.

"So, if we really used this money, it would be a real crime! Akane-chan!"

"But this money is our hard-earned money! If we just leave the money flowing into the black bank unattended, wouldn't it be equivalent to providing funds to those criminals in disguise?! And in the final analysis, we are robbing the bad guys' money! What's wrong with that?!"

Hearing what Akane said, Nonami beside her nodded and showed a look of agreement.

"I agree with Akane-chan. Even if it's the criminals' funds, it should be fine as long as we use them for good."

Looking at the two people who seemed to have reached a consensus, Hoshino, who had been silent, turned to look at Lin En and Bai Zi.

"Teacher Lin En and Bai Zi-chan, what do you think?"

Seeing that Lin En remained silent for some reason, Bai Zi was the first to answer.

“…Whether I express my opinion or not, I think Senior Hoshino will object to the use of this money.”

"As expected of Baizi-chan, you really understand me."

In response to Bai Zi's guess, Hoshino yawned and smiled.

"Akane-chan, what we need is documents, not money. It's fine if it's the criminal funds of the bad guys this time, but what about next time? What about the next time? If you get used to this method... you will definitely do the same thing in the future as if nothing happened."

Hoshino said this with a smile after looking at Shiroko, Ayane, and Nonami who looked thoughtful because of his words, as well as Akane who looked dissatisfied.

"As an uncle, I really don't want my lovely juniors to become like that."

Seeing that everyone fell silent again, Lin En couldn't help but chuckle.

"It seems that you have already come to a conclusion... In that case, I will take care of the money for you."

"…Then, what about the teacher? What do you think, Teacher Lin En?!"

It seemed that because of Lin En's words, Qian Xiang finally remembered that he was still beside her, as if she had seized some kind of opportunity, and asked him this question with a little anxiety.

"Although I am an adult and your teacher, I will not interfere with your choices."

Lin En put the scattered bundles of banknotes back into the large black bag and shook his head slightly, and replied to Qian Xiang.

"The reason why I came up with the plan and helped you rob the bank was because you all decided to do it; and now, since most of you think that you shouldn't use the money..."

As he said this, Lin En shook the bundle of bills in his hand.

"Then I will obey your will and take the money away."

As he said that, Lin En seemed to remember something, and smiled as he spoke to Akane, whose cat ears drooped because of his words.

"Although Akane-chan offered me a sleeping companion service, I can't help you with this kind of thing. Sorry."

"Who... who has ever provided you with a sleeping companion service?"

Seeing Akane suddenly getting angry, Nonami couldn't help but chuckle after thinking for a moment.

"Hmmmm... I remember Akane-chan was sleeping soundly while hugging the teacher's arm."

"That! That's just because I didn't sleep well the night before!"

Seeing that everyone's attention had instantly shifted to other things, Lin En smiled slightly, took out the documents from the black bag, and stuffed the banknotes back in.

However, when he casually opened the folder he took out of the big bag to check it, he couldn't help but frowned.

"This is……"

When Lynn closed the folder and fell into deep thought, Qian Xiang, who was feeling down and outraged by everyone's teasing, complained out loud in dissatisfaction.

"Woooaaaaa! Teacher Lin En! Why don't you say something!"

"Hmm? I just told you what I saw. And when I was unconscious, I seemed to hear someone crying for a long time beside me... Who was it?"

As expected, in response to Lynn's words, Qian Xiang exploded almost without any hesitation.

"It's... it hasn't been that long! I was just a little worried about the teacher at that time!"

Almost at the moment of saying this, Akane realized that she had been completely rude and immediately lowered her head, covering her now red face with her hands.

While everyone's attention was on Qianxiang, Lin En put the documents in his hand into his clothes, and then quickly packed the banknotes into two large bags.

"This is not something you can show to children..."

Chapter 32 I didn’t expect the teacher to be so bold

After experiencing this farce, Qianxiang was too embarrassed to mention anything about money again, and instead, together with other members of the countermeasures committee, she reviewed the documents taken out of the bank.

Soon, everyone found the information they wanted from these documents.

"Caesar Loan: Abydos received 788 million yuan, and the Iron Helmet Corps provided 600 million yuan in aid..."

After hearing Baizi read out the transaction records on the document in his hand, Ayane nodded with a heavy expression.

"It seems that this can be completely confirmed..."

"What a joke!"

Akane slammed her hand on the table while saying this.

"The money we have been paying back is actually used to support those bastards?! Isn't this just using our own money to fight ourselves?!"

"So... all the money we've worked so hard to pay back so far has been wasted..."

Following Nonami's words, the entire Countermeasures Committee's activity room became quiet and silent.

But this is a very normal thing. After all, the five of them have been working hard to repay such heavy interest every month for such a long time in order to support the entire school that is on the verge of closing down.

But now, they learned that the money they had repaid had not only been used to fuel criminal gangs, but also helped these guys attack their own schools more recklessly.

If you encounter such a situation, I'm afraid anyone would feel depressed.

"All right."

In this somewhat depressing atmosphere, Lynn clapped his hands as if he was unaware of anything.

"Everyone has confirmed the documents by this time today, so let's go to bed early. We can think about the Caesar loan tomorrow."

"But teacher..."

However, Lin En did not give Bai Zi a chance to continue speaking, but interrupted him instead.

"Everyone on the Countermeasures Committee... Now, I am your teacher, right?"

"……Um."

"Well, teacher, let's wait until tomorrow to discuss the following matters. Now it's time to dismiss the school, and you should go home quickly... Do you understand?"

To everyone's surprise, Lin En did not face them with his usual gentle image at this time. Instead, his face was serious, and he spoke to them in a calm tone that was almost commanding.

Faced with such a serious Lin En, the people of Abydos felt an inexplicable sense of oppression for some reason.

Although they all knew that Lin En's direct combat ability was not as good as theirs, they felt that they could not say no to Lin En in this state.

"……I see."

But what the other members of the countermeasures committee, and even Lin En himself, did not expect was that the first person to respond to his words and leave her seat was Akane, who seemed the least forthright on weekdays.

"Since... since the teacher has said so, let's go back and rest."

Under the slightly surprised gazes of the crowd, Akane's cheeks blushed slightly but she continued to speak.

"The reason why the teacher said that must be for our own good. If we don't get a good rest because of these things and end up hurting our bodies, we will definitely be the ones who suffer."

"Yeah, Akane-chan is right."

Hearing what Akane said, Ayane nodded slightly and agreed out loud.

"It's really late now, everyone should go back and rest."

After hearing this, everyone hesitated for a moment, then stood up from their seats and left the activity room.

After watching all the students leave, Lynn picked up the two large black bags full of money and left the activity room.

However, when Lynn left the activity room and closed the door, he saw a figure standing in front of the corridor window, seemingly waiting for him.

"Hoshino? Aren't you going back to rest?"

In response to Lin En's question, Hoshino was silent for a moment, then turned around and looked at him with a smile.

"Oh... because I can't sleep right now. And... I want to talk to the teacher about something."

After hearing what Hoshino said, Lin En thought for a short while and nodded slightly as if he understood something.

But then, Lin En suddenly thought of something, hung the two big black bags on his shoulders, and reached out to Hoshino.

"If that's the case, then are you interested in experiencing what it's like to be a phantom thief, Hoshino?"

“…Huh?”

--------

"Oh my... Is the teacher actually enjoying such an exciting experience?"

In the night sky of Abydos, Lin En, who had put on the phantom thief costume again, had two large black bags full of banknotes hanging on his shoulders and was gliding in a somewhat strange appearance.

But apart from that, what was even more weird or funny was that there was a student who looked quite petite in his arms.

Hearing these words from Hoshino who was curled up in his arms, Lin En couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Don't think I'm so good at it now. The first time I used this hang glider, I hit my head."

"Yeah, I remember. Shirako-chan and Akane-chan had a fight over who should take care of the teacher's wound. But I didn't expect that it was Ayane-chan who helped you apply the ointment in the end."

As he said this, Hoshino couldn't help but look down at the city.

Although the lights in Abydos city are far less prosperous than they were in the past, they are still bright and dazzling.

"But... this is my first time to see the night view of downtown Abydos in this way."

Hearing the words of Hoshino in his arms, Lin En couldn't help but smile.

"If Hoshino wants to see it, just tell me, okay?"

"Hmm... The teacher didn't choose those young kids, but instead extended an invitation to an uncle like me?"

In Lin En's arms, Hoshino chuckled and shook his head slightly, speaking in a slightly teasing tone.

"I think if those children experience this once, they will be instantly overwhelmed by this feeling. I think it wouldn't be strange if they fell in love with the teacher because of this."

"So... what about you, Hoshino?"

Unexpectedly, Lin En asked her without any hesitation.

"Do you like this feeling?"

Faced with Lin En's "active attack", Hoshino just smiled lightly.

"Hmm... I didn't expect the teacher to be so bold. However, if the teacher wasn't bold, he wouldn't have rushed into the Iron Helmets' position on a motorcycle, nor would he have used such a dangerous method to help us steal the information from the bank..."

Then, Hoshino looked down at the flickering lights of the city of Abydos below.

"Uncle, I'm already very old. I'd better let the younger generation experience this exciting thing. I think Akane-chan is pretty good, isn't she?"

Hearing what Xingye said, Lin En's face flashed a complicated expression. But he didn't say much about it, but silently controlled the hang glider and flew to another place in Abydos.
