Real teaching, hypocritical gray life

"This is completely different from yesterday... After processing all the subjects yesterday, I didn't feel that there was anything wrong with your answer. In the end, I just roughly analyzed your weaknesses... I never thought that the answer you gave in the special training would be like this."

Ji Ye scratched her hair and threw the twin ponytails behind her.

"Is it because the answer is so different from the standard answer that it bothers Himeno? I'm sorry, my learning talent has caused you trouble."

"I actually hope that your answer has nothing to do with the question, so that I won't have to struggle with it for so long."

"What is this? It can't be that the answer is too close to the standard and difficult to judge...?"

"Ah, well... the core of problem-solving ability is to identify the problem. The next process can also be explained as breaking down the problem into a specific solution, which means making the problem concrete..."

"Well, then what?"

Before he could finish his words, Ji Ye's voice suddenly stopped.

I looked at her in confusion, only to find that she was staring at me angrily.

"......"

It shouldn’t be that the other party discovered my peeping behavior, so he was probably angry in a way that I couldn’t understand.

Although Ji Ye and I have only known each other for less than two days, I have unexpectedly adapted to his inexplicable changes in expression.

Should I say that I have a strong ability to adapt, or that Ji Ye is actually very easy to deal with?

For now, if she just let her emotions run wild and pretended nothing had happened, nothing would happen in the end.

“What comes after making the problem concrete?”

"............I don't know either."

This is totally not an answer.

"Anyway, how on earth did you manage to make the answers to every question so ambiguous?"

Jiye handed my notebook back.

Although there was a red pen signature on it, there was no rating mark.

That is to say, it is difficult to give points to my answer.

"I'm answering the questions carefully according to the answering method I've learned so far. The result of more than ten years of study is not that bad, right?"

"I'm not saying your answer is bad, I'm just saying the way you answered... How did you develop this kind of writing style that can be right or wrong?"

"It's like I asked you what kind of clothes you like, and you answered girls' clothes."

I see. If we apply this analogy from Himeno to other situations, we can understand it as follows:

Q: What kind of underwear do you like?

Answer: [I like the underwear that girls wear.]

“…Isn’t this pretty bad?”

“You realized it yourself.”

After coming across similar patterns, I realized the seriousness of the problem.

Putting aside the fact that I, as a boy, am not very good at answering this question, the fact that I have a fetish for women's underwear is already quite abnormal.

"............Does Ji Ye have a corresponding solution?"

"Maybe, provided you listen carefully to my explanation... Also, at this point you should abandon all the learning you have done."

"More than a decade of hard work was negated in an instant."

"It's fine if you keep going. But I have to warn you that your answering style is just a trick, and the teacher will definitely not let it go when marking the test papers."

"............I see."

Time passed by unknowingly, and Ichinose announced the end of today's study session.

"Today's study session ends here. Thank you for your hard work. Pack up your things and go home now."

"It's already this time."

Okabe, who was sitting opposite me, finally raised his head from the sea of ​​questions. Or rather, everyone in Class A did the same.

Although we are still required not to slack off in our pursuit of learning after school, we do not have any complaints about this.

Of course I'm talking about students other than Himeno.

Everyone wants to do their best in this academic test and defeat Class A with absolute excellence.

At the same time, Jiye also finished grading my second test.

"Really? Just do the things you can do seriously normally, and don't cause trouble for others after class."

After I achieved the result, Himeno said something that seemed to praise my ability. Although it was more of a criticism from the literal meaning, I still felt a little embarrassed by her affirmation.

"Does that mean I passed the test?"

"more or less."

After calming down, I also gave my evaluation of Ji Ye's performance.

"This is all thanks to Ji Ye's good teaching."

"That's a lot of nonsense... I don't think I have the ability to be a teacher."

Ji Ye turned his head to the side and threw my notebook back roughly.

"That's just being willful. It's better to accept the praise from others frankly. I've been dragged to the teacher's office for lectures many times before, and I think Ji Ye knows that you're the only one who can give me a fair response."

"That was last semester. After all, Mr. Hoshinomiya hasn't contacted you this semester."

“So I’ve been completely abandoned.”

"Besides, Ichinose also told me the same thing."

"Ichinose will show mercy to anyone no matter who he evaluates."

"You really are............"

As if moved by my ability, Ji Ye was completely speechless.

"Thank you for your hard work, did your study go smoothly today?"

After arranging the study supplies on the desk, Ichinose came up behind the two of us.

"Hino is a great teacher."

I didn't hesitate to praise him, but at the same time I was glared at by him.

"Is that so? That's great."

"............Luo Jun just doesn't work hard enough."

What, such a polite tone?

The change in the way people addressed me and the way they spoke to me gave me a startle.

"As expected, Xiaoxue also came to this conclusion, so I would say that Luo can actually be very powerful."

"............No matter how much you praise me, my strength will not improve at all."

"Luo doesn't want to perform at all."

Ichinose retorted to me in a somewhat annoyed tone. I tried to get Himeno to tell Ichinose that I was indeed serious, but she ignored me and just put her notebook back into her bag.

"Since the study session is over, I will go back first."

"Well, thank you for your hard work. I will have to trouble Xiaoxue later."

"............oh."

For some reason, after Ichinose said this, Himeno, who was about to leave, paused for a moment, but finally left his seat quickly.

I silently watched Ji Ye's back as he left, until——

"How was your experience today, Luo Jun?"

Ichinose came closer in one breath, leaned forward slightly, and looked down at me and asked. We were closer than I thought, and I could even smell the fragrance of Ichinose's skin.

In addition, the stuffiness in the library also affected Ichinose, and the first collar of her white shirt was unbuttoned, revealing her snow-white skin. At the same time, the suspension caused by leaning forward also gave me some vague views of the valley.

Because the lethality is completely incomparable, in order not to get emotional, I chose to turn my head away.

"Ah, it should be okay, um—"

Before I could say anything, Ichinose reached out and cupped my cheeks, adjusting the position of my head. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but my eyes were focused on that beautiful scene of youth again.

Then I heard Ichinose's dissatisfied grumbles in my ears.

“I obviously have some here.”

“Are you referring to…?”

"No, it's nothing."

Although there were some minor incidents, this study session was successfully completed without any external interference, which is also thanks to our compliance with the library rules.

As Ichinose expressed his dissatisfaction to me, the students prepared to return to their dormitories.

Unlike our Class A, the students in Class D sighed about the long study session time.

"Ahhh, I'm so tired!"

Chi sighed like this in the corner of his desk, but a bright expression appeared on his face. I guess he was happy about regaining his freedom.

"Today is not the last time. Don't forget that there is also a study session tomorrow."

Horikita suddenly reminded him.

"I know. But can you be a little happy? You've worked hard!"

After saying hello to Horikita, the students of Class D ran out of the library like wild horses.

"Class D is really lively. On the other hand, we are so quiet that we even want you to share some of the liveliness with us."

"If it's not a good direction, then that's right. I envy the calm and collected Class A."

Ichinose and Horikita were asking each other for what their classes lacked.

However, if we compare the situations, the learning atmosphere in our Class A is indeed superior.

Staying calm and composed is also a reflection of our class cohesion.

The students in Class A can basically be classified as [good students]. It is precisely because of this that our hands and feet are greatly restricted. The students may be inferior to those in Class D in terms of action creation.

It is hard to say whether [the advantages outweigh the disadvantages] or [the disadvantages outweigh the advantages]. The key lies in whether the leaders can make use of the advantages of their respective classes.

"Goodbye everyone. Goodbye to Ichinose-san and Raku-kun as well."

"See you next time, little Kikyo."

"Goodbye."

After a simple farewell, Kushida led the majority of the girls in Class D out of the library.

By the way, I didn't notice that Kushida attended this study session at all......

Sure enough, I still couldn't resist the temptation of the valley scenery.

I zipped up my schoolbag while sighing inwardly.

Although I was lucky enough to see one of the most precious views of youth today, if we really compare them, Ichinose or Kushida-san's are more tempting.

——I couldn’t see what I wanted.

Youth can be unexpectedly cruel, compared to life...

While I was still searching for my own desires, Horikita turned her gaze to Ichinose who was about to go back with Class A.

"Ichinose-san, can I ask you some questions?"

"Hmm? What what?"

"If possible, I hope that what happens next will only be heard by you. Just a few minutes."

"You want me to be the only one who can hear this? This is a little troubling...Ayanokouji-kun, do you want to join this conversation too?"

In response to Ichinose's pointed question, Horikita glanced at Ayanokouji standing behind her.

"If I stay here and get in the way—"
