Teacher Xia Lai is also teaching in Kivotos today

Just as Haruna was about to say something, Izumi, who had looked listless just now, suddenly jumped in front of Fengxiang and took away a piece of barbecue that she had been craving for a long time from her hand.

"Let me taste it first—Aaaaaaaaaah!"

After watching Izumi finish the barbecue in lightning speed, Junko, who had also recovered, hurried over.

"How...how does it taste?"

However, to the surprise of everyone present, after eating the barbecue, Quan was stunned where he was.

"Izumi, what's wrong?"

After hearing Junko's slightly doubtful words, Haruna looked at Izumi for a moment and nodded as if she understood something.

"I see... Junko, you should know that Izumi has always had some problems with her sense of taste. But now, the taste experience brought by the dishes made by Fengxiang has exceeded her understanding limit, so now she... has crashed."

Haruna took a portion of grilled meat from Fengxiang as she said this, took a bite, and nodded approvingly.

"Yes... This is the dish made by Fengxiang! It's so delicious..."

"Wow! I haven't even started eating yet, why are you guys already eating?"

Junko quickly took the grilled meat from Fengxiang and looked at the steaming food in front of her, her eyes sparkling.

"Finally...after going through so much hardship, I finally have this day! This day where I can enjoy delicious food to my heart's content..."

But at the moment when Junko put her hands together, put the fork on the barbecue, and was about to put it into her mouth——

"boom!"

Without giving them any time to react, Haruna, who was sitting next to them, suddenly raised the precision rifle that had been at her side and without any warning fired a shot at the empty space behind her.

"Whoa?!"

Because of this, Junko, who was not mentally prepared at all, couldn't help but tremble all over and the fork in her hand shook.

As she moved, the piece of meat on the fork slid down the tip of the fork and rolled to the ground.

"..."

Looking at the barbecue covered in mud that fell to the ground, Junko, who felt like crying but had no tears, subconsciously opened her mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say.

Without any thought, Junko put down the plate in her hand and silently raised her dual-wielded assault rifles.

"My meat!!! Hey..."

But when Junko looked in the direction where Haruna's gun was pointing, her originally aggressive look instantly wilted.

Right in front of Haruna, a familiar person was holding a familiar-looking samurai sword and looking at them.

But what was a little strange was that for some reason there was a cardboard box overturned at his feet that was not there before.

"...Mr. Lin En?"

When Junko exclaimed in surprise, Haruna, who had finally come to her senses, put down the gun in her hand and asked subconsciously.

"Teacher Lin En, did you just... deflect my bullet with your knife?"

After hearing Haruna's words, not only Junko, Fengxiang and others fell silent, but even Lin En fell silent.

After a while, Lin En nodded to Haruna with a subtle expression.

"Believe me, this is definitely the first time I've done something like this."

It was not until this moment that Haruna finally remembered something and suddenly became a little flustered.

"Um... Teacher, why... why are you here? Um... I didn't mean to..."

Looking at the somewhat flustered Haruna, Lynn chuckled and put Murasame back into the sheath.

"It's okay. I don't mean to blame you. Rather, I'm more curious about how you found me, Haruna?"

"Well... if I must put it in words, it's something like intuition..."

"Girls' intuition is really scary..."

"If you want to say, Teacher Lin En is more terrifying, right?"

But in response to Lin En's complaints, Haruna "retorted" with a smile.

"If I'm not mistaken...Mingli-san should have been subdued by you now, right?"

"Yes. But don't worry, Haruna-san. She just fainted temporarily. She's not seriously injured."

"I think that it is unbelievable that Mr. Lin, as an adult without a halo, could use cold weapons to subdue Mingli-san... This is completely unbelievable."

"It was just that I caught Akari-san and took advantage of her. It was just luck."

After making such an excuse with a wry smile, Lynn cleared his throat and spoke seriously to Haruna.

"Well, Haruna-san, the head of the Gourmet Research Club, I wonder if you can hand over Fuka-san, the head of the Supply Club, now?"

"But... our barbecue hasn't been..."

Before Haruna could finish her words, Lin En interrupted her with a smile.

"Otherwise, it will be Chairman Hinata who will be here later, okay?"

"..."

After hearing this name, which was synonymous with terror for the students of Gehenna, Haruna, who was about to make some excuses, couldn't help but swallow her saliva, sighed with a heavy face, and looked at Junko and Izumi behind her.

"There's nothing we can do, everyone... Although the motto of our Food Research Department is 'Eat or Die', you have to know that there are other things in this world that are more terrifying than death... Let's surrender."

"Goooo..."

Unlike Izumi who also had a sad face, Junko put down her gun and looked at the piece of barbecue that had rolled to the ground with a sorrowful look on her face.

"My flesh..."

Chapter 15: Fishing Time with Iroha

In front of the Gehenna Pandemonium, the building that "symbolizes" the top leadership, Lin En, who was holding a bag in his hand, turned a corner and walked towards the tank garage near the building.

After saying hello to a few students along the way, Lynn turned a few corners with ease, walked into an inconspicuous passage, came to a somewhat ordinary room without any signs hanging on it, pushed open the door and walked in.

Unlike its ordinary appearance, this room, although not particularly large, has several neatly arranged shelves, with old and new books and game cartridges neatly placed on these shelves.

But unlike what it looked like, there was an unmistakable smell of snacks lingering in the air.

After closing the door, Lynn took off his shoes and walked lightly. He first put the book at his feet on the shelf, then put the bag in his hand on the coffee table beside him, and then stuffed the pair of socks that had been thrown on the ground not far away and rolled up into another pair of boots placed at the door.

Finally, Lynn fixed his gaze on the figure with its back to him.

At this moment, the petite girl with messy and fluffy red hair, wearing a short skirt, bare legs, and a red robe with the armband of Gehenna Pandemonium on her body was lying on the cushion on the ground, staring at the glowing game console in her hand.

Seeing this, Lin En sighed softly and glanced inadvertently, and seemed to see the flash of white under the short skirt.

But before he could see clearly, the girl finally noticed him and turned to look at Lin En who was standing behind her.

"Ah, it's Teacher Lin En... Why are you here all of a sudden?"

Hearing this, Lynn sat down on another cushion next to her, chuckling and shrugging.

"Due to some unexpected reasons, the canteen is temporarily closed today, and the ingredients for tomorrow have been prepared. Plus, there's nothing urgent that needs to be dealt with, so I just came to your place!"

"Um... Teacher, if you come to my place without permission like this, you have to pay an entrance fee, right?"

After hearing the girl's slightly teasing voice, Lin En couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

"Hmm? Iroha... As a student, you actually dare to ask for money from your teacher?"

"Oh? Is the teacher angry?"

Facing the question from the smirking girl, Lynn couldn't help but chuckle and pointed to the bag on the table.

"Just kidding, I brought you your favorite snacks. Besides, there's also a milkshake that I made myself, okay?"

Hearing this, Iroha couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Hmm? Teacher can actually make desserts? That's hard to imagine..."

"As the instructor of the supply department, how could I not be good at it?"

Lynn answered with a smile, adjusted his posture, and lay down next to Iroha with his head resting on the cushion.

Zao Iroha is one of the councilors of Pandemonium. However, due to the school spirit issues of Gehenna and the frequent problems caused by the student council president Makoto, she is actually an important figure who is responsible for handling almost all the work in Pandemonium.

Although she is somewhat similar to Azi in terms of position, unlike the hardworking Azi, she never forces herself to solve all problems as quickly as possible because of the heavy workload, but chooses to solve them while slacking off.

If it is an important matter, I will solve it first, but if it is not so important, I will solve it while I am working on it. As for ordinary chores, I will solve them after I have worked on them. Therefore, although it may seem a bit lazy, the work can always be completed.

When Iroha met Lynn for work reasons, the two people with very similar work philosophies hit it off immediately. As middle managers, they soon became "accomplices" in slacking off.

This room is their "secret base" where they relax during their free time at work.

However, it is also because of this reason that Yazi, whose work philosophy is contrary to theirs, often gets angry at their attitudes. As a result, Lin En and Yazi have had many disputes.

But none of that matters. For Lin En right now, the most important thing is just one thing - that is touching!

"Teacher, would you like some snacks?"

Although he said this, Iroha took out a few potato chips from the opened snack bag at hand and stuffed them into his mouth without waiting for Lynn's reply.

"Huh... it really feels better to just touch the fish for a while like this..."

Lynn sighed sincerely while chewing potato chips.

"That's right. If you always push yourself too hard just for work, it's bad for both your body and mind."

Iroha replied with a smile and a nod as he stuffed the remaining chips in the bag into Lynn's mouth.

"...Iroha, why do I feel like you're stuffing all of them on me because you don't like lemon-flavored potato chips?"

"Hehe, I've been discovered."

The exposed Iroha lay on the cushion and gently shook her white legs.

"I found this new flavor when I went to the supermarket a few days ago. Out of curiosity, I bought a bag and tried it. It turned out that this flavor is really not suitable for me. But the teacher happened to be here, so I just gave them to the teacher. After all, unlike us students, the teacher as an adult can't be picky about food, right?"

"Of course. After all, I am not picky about food in every sense of the word."

At this point, Lynn couldn't help but yawn.

"I heard that the teacher single-handedly arrested everyone from the Gourmet Research Department and took them to the Disciplinary Committee today."

Hearing the girl's question, Lin En couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Iroha is really well-informed, but he didn't act alone. The Discipline Committee also helped a lot."

"I see, no wonder the teacher didn't say he wanted to play games with me today."

Hearing this, Lynn chuckled and then stretched.

"Then I'll take a short nap here. Would you mind waking me up for dinner?"

"no problem."

After seeing the smiling Iroha giving him a thumbs up, Lynn nodded, closed his eyes and began to rest.

"Speaking of which, how about trying the milkshake that the teacher made first... after all, there's no refrigerator here."

Iroha muttered to himself as he reached out and took out a cup of frozen milkshake from the bag on the table on the other side of Lynn.

"Oh, and there are straws. The teacher really understands me."

Because he was too lazy to move again, Iroha simply pulled the cushion over and sat on the ground facing Lin En.

But after inserting the straw and taking two sips, Iroha couldn't help but frown slightly.

"The milkshake made by the teacher seems to have been frozen for a long time... I feel like it's a little hard to suck up from the bottom..."

Iroha, realizing this, put down the game console in his hand, held the cup and began to hold it with a little more force.

However, Iroha, who was concentrating on drinking his milkshake at the moment, did not notice the sound of footsteps coming from the corridor outside towards this small room.
