Teacher Xia Lai is also teaching in Kivotos today

Facing Lin En who was greeting her with a smile, Qian Xiang recalled all of her and Lin En's previous actions at once. Her pretty face flushed at an unprecedented speed and she bit her lips slightly.

"Woo... meow meow!"

Amidst a cry of grief whose meaning was completely incomprehensible, Akane for some reason swung her small fist without hesitation and hit Lynn's face mercilessly.

Perhaps because she was in a state of shame and anger, Qianxiang's punch was so heavy that it carried a slight sound of wind as it suddenly swung towards Lin En's face.

Although Lin En is an adult, compared to these students who are protected by some kind of mystery, his physique is completely incomparable to theirs, let alone his physical strength.

Therefore, if Lin En took Qian Xiang's punch, although he would not be seriously injured, he would probably have to lie on the bench and would not be able to get up for a long time.

Therefore, facing Qianxiang's shameful punch, Lin En quickly turned his head away.

"call--"

The next moment, Qianxiang's petite iron fist brushed Lin En's cheek and swung towards the side of his face.

Feeling the strong wind blowing on his face as the other party moved, Lin En couldn't help but complain out loud.

"Akane! What are you doing?!"

Hearing Lin En's words, Qian Xiang, who was still sitting on his abdomen, glared at him fiercely.

"I am eradicating the public enemy of women!"

"What kind of public enemy am I?"

Lin En was speechless about Qianxiang's "being the first to complain".

"It's obviously you..."

Before Lin En could finish his words, the little black cat, whose face was still flushed, covered his mouth with its paw.

"Don't say it!"

However, Qianxiang forgot one thing at this moment, that is, there were more than just the two of them in the activity room at this time.

"Wow... I didn't expect Akane-chan to be the stronger party in this kind of thing."

As Nonami spoke, Bai Zi beside her nodded slightly.

"And it seems that the teacher doesn't care about this problem..."

Instantly, Qian Xiang, who was covering Lin En's mouth, trembled all over, and then turned to look at the other members of the countermeasures committee.

"It's just that... not only in broad daylight, but also in an activity room with so many people around, Akane-chan is really bold."

"..."

Unlike Hoshino who made fun of her out loud, Ayane looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, then sighed helplessly.

"It seems that Akane-chan really likes Teacher Lin En."

"Happily, happily, happily, happily?!"

Hearing this, Qianxiang's face, which was originally just a little flushed, suddenly turned red, and she began to stutter.

“That’s… That’s not the case! Who… Who likes this perverted… perverted teacher!!”

"Oh?"

After seeing Akane's expression, Hoshino narrowed his eyes slightly and said with some malice.

"So, you really hate Teacher Lin En?"

"certainly not!"

Almost immediately, Akane answered without hesitation in a voice even more exaggerated than before.

"How could I possibly hate Teacher Lin En?!"

"what the hell……"

In response to Akane's answer, Hoshino chuckled and continued speaking in her usual lazy voice.

"Isn't that love?"

"No...it's not like this...no...that's not right...this is...that's not right either..."

Faced with Hoshino's words, Akane, who was beginning to panic, suddenly fell into a somewhat confused state. Her hands, which were originally covering Lin En's mouth, began to wave unconsciously.

If she were given a pair of mosquito-repellent eyes at this moment, it would perfectly fit the character in the anime.

However, just as Lynn was thinking about what to say to ease the atmosphere, Qianxiang responded loudly with her eyes closed, like a broken jar.

"Then I just like Teacher Lin En! So what! The teacher not only saved me, but also gave us so much help. Isn't it normal for me to like the teacher?!"

"..."

The moment Qianxiang finished speaking, the activity room suddenly became quiet.

"You...you guys, what are you going to say..."

Looking at everyone who had suddenly fallen silent for some reason, Akane, who had regained a brief moment of calm after the self-explosion, couldn't help but mutter.

"...Akane-chan has finally grown up."

For some reason, Nonami, who was closest to the two of them, had an expression of great relief, as if her daughter had grown up, which made Akane's pretty face, which had originally relaxed a little, blush again.

“Wha…what?! Nonami-senpai is only one year older than me, right?!”

When Akane retorted with a red face, Hoshino couldn't help but wipe away his tears.

"Wow...Akane-chan finally let go of her pride and showed her delicate side. I'm really pleased, uncle."

"I've already told you that I'm not a tsundere..."

Although she said this, Akane's tone of voice involuntarily lowered in the second half of her sentence.

Seeing this, Lin En shook his head in a helpless manner, then sat up from the bench amid the girl's exclamation.

As he moved, Akane, who was originally sitting on his stomach, slid onto his thighs.

Then, Lin En reached out his hand, rubbed Qianxiang's head, which still looked a little messy, and rubbed the cute cat ears on her head.

"Alright, alright, they're just teasing you, calm down a bit."

Faced with Lin En's touching her head, Qian Xiang couldn't help but be stunned, and then she subconsciously nodded slightly.

But after seeing the interaction between the two, Nonami pouted slightly and looked dissatisfied.

"Ah! Akane-chan is so cunning! Not only can she sit on the teacher's lap, but she can also get patted on the head by the teacher!"

Hearing this, Qian Xiang couldn't help but hug Lin En tightly subconsciously.

"What...what are you doing! This is a position I fought for myself! Even if you are my senior, you are not allowed to snatch it from me!"

Perhaps because of her recent self-explosion, Akane was unusually proactive compared to usual.

Nonami said this and quickly sat down on Lin En's left side. She leaned slightly against him and held Lin En's arm in her arms.

"Hmmmm... now we're even."

"Varied--"

Seeing Nonami snatching away Lin En's left hand that was originally stroking her head, Akane couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly.

However, before she could say anything else, Bai Zi, who had sat on Lin En's right side at some point, hugged Lin En's other arm in his arms with an expressionless face, and then nodded slightly.

"Yeah, that's right."

"this--"

Before Qianxiang's surprise was over, Hoshino, who appeared behind Lin En, jumped lightly, stretched out his hands to hold his neck, and stuck to Lin En's back like a pendant.

"Hmm... I think it's a good idea to take a nap with the teacher on my back..."

“Gurgle…”

Just as Akane made a muffled sound because she was dissatisfied with the scene before her, all of them seemed to have forgotten that there was another person present.

"You guys..."

Hearing this familiar voice, the four of them, including Lin En, all looked at Ayane, who had also stood up at some point and was now standing beside the table.

"……what."

When Hoshino spoke like this as if he understood something, Ayane had already grabbed the edge of the table beside her and lifted it up towards the five of them!

"Just stop it!!!"

"Wow?!"

Looking at the people who fell from the overturned benches and rolled on the ground in a ball while trying to avoid the table flying towards them, Ayane adjusted her glasses angrily and muttered to herself with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"I also want to sit with the teacher... Really..."

Chapter 70: Unexpected Encounter

Although the crisis caused by Caesar's loan has been resolved, it has not been long and people got up early, so there are not many people on the streets of Abydos, so it is a relatively quiet morning.

After restoring the messed-up things in the activity room, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention what had happened before, and instead held a brief meeting as usual.

Aside from Akane, who was preparing to work at General Chai's newly opened store after being discharged from the hospital, and Shirako, who was out on his daily patrol, the rest of the group chose to stay in the Abydos school building as usual.

Therefore, Lin En did not choose to disturb them, but left the school building alone and walked towards the black market in Abydos - he had some things he wanted to confirm.

So, after the meeting, Lin En used the excuse that he had something to deal with and headed towards the black market.

The black market in Abydos was not very big, and Lynn quickly made a rough tour of it on his motorcycle.

"No……"

Lynn couldn't help but frowned slightly when he didn't see the familiar skull logo with roses.

When he was at the black market in the Trinity College Autonomous Region, seeing this sign meant that he and those students could take a short break, and it also meant that he could get ammunition and food supplies.

When he was in Gehenna before, he had also gone to the black market to inquire. Although he did not go through the black market of Gehenna thoroughly, he did not find this sign at that time, just like now.

"That is to say... they should only be active within the Trinity College Autonomous Region..."

Thinking of this, Lin En, who was pushing the motorcycle and browsing the address book on his mobile phone, couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"I forgot to ask for their contact information at that time... It would be very troublesome to find them now..."

At this moment, Lin En caught a glimpse of the small keychain that he had casually hung on his phone case.

"...I didn't expect to see you again in this way, Pelloro."

Recalling what happened that night, Lynn chuckled and said to herself.

Although he is an adult who has nothing to do with fashion in a sense, he still knows something about the mascot series MomoFriends launched by Momo, the company that produced Momotalk, the most popular social software in Kivotos.

After all, these cute mascots once helped a student regain the courage to survive.

However, just as Lynn focused his attention on the Pelolo pendant, a young girl ran out from the corner in front and bumped into Lynn who was pushing a motorcycle unexpectedly.

"Whoa?!"

When the other party screamed, Lin En reacted quickly and stood firm. While holding the motorcycle, he reached out and grabbed the waist of the girl who was about to fall backwards, so that both of them could stabilize their bodies.

Until this moment, everything would have been perfect - if Lynn hadn't been holding the phone just now.

When the girl bumped into Lin En, he didn't hold the phone tightly at that time, so the phone flew into the sky with inertia. But it was also because of this reason that Lin En was able to free up his two hands to take care of the situation on both sides.

The price he paid was that he no longer had any extra hands to catch the fallen phone.

"Snapped!"

"Oh!"

I don’t know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, but the phone that fell from mid-air did not fall straight to the ground, but hit the girl, causing her to scream involuntarily and subconsciously grab the phone.

"Um, are you okay...?"

At the same time, Lin En, who was apologizing to the other party, blinked in surprise. If there was a reason, it was because the girl whose waist he was holding was none other than Hifumi, who he had met once in the black market.

You know, the situation now is different from that night. That night, I was [Joker classmate], but now I am [Xia Lai's teacher]. Although he doesn't care much about reputation, he doesn't want to get into trouble.
