I am a teacher at a girls' school in Tokyo

Tetsufumi Hirakawa didn't know what to say.

Is this the reason again? Just like this morning, I was in a bad mood.

He smiled gently at the girl.

"Then can you tell the teacher why you are in a bad mood?"

"I said it this morning. If you are unhappy because you have something stuck in your heart, you might as well speak it out."

"It's fine whether you just talk or seek help from others..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shinohara Shiori.

"Teacher Hirakawa, not everything can be said out loud."

"..."

Facing the serious look that Shinohara Shiori gave him, Hirakawa Tetsufumi had to admit that what she said made sense.

"Alright alright."

That was all he could do.

"So what does Shinohara-san want to do?"

"It will be all right."

"Eh... it's all right again?"

"Ah."

Shinohara Shiori gently lifted her long, flowing black hair, as capriciously as she was this morning.

"If Mr. Hirakawa wants to discuss the wind orchestra with me, please wait until Shiori's mood improves."

"..."

How to describe the girl's appearance at this moment?

It's like saying, "I'm unhappy, come and comfort me."

Although, due to personality reasons, it is not expressed frankly, but this is definitely what I mean.

"..."

Faced with the eldest lady's seemingly willful request, for the sake of the orchestra, Tetsufumi Hirakawa had no choice but to agree.

"Okay." He said helplessly, "Guiding students is also part of a teacher's job."

After saying that, he looked around at the entrance of the wind orchestra and the students who were passing by.

"Talk while walking?" He sought the eldest lady's advice.

The eldest lady nodded.

-

Although it has been decided, according to Shinohara Shiori's suggestion, just say something to cheer her up.

However, finding topics did give him a headache.

"What should I say?"

Walking down the stairs of the club building, Tetsufumi Hirakawa was struggling with this matter.

Shinohara Shiori beside him was just walking quietly, and there was no conversation between the two of them.

until……

As she walked down the stairs, Shinohara Shiori's clear voice reached the ears of the distracted Hirakawa Tetsufumi.

"Since Mr. Pingchuan can't think of anything for the time being, why don't you just tell me what you usually do?"

Hirakawa Tetsufumi came to his senses, stopped and looked at her.

However, the girl had already walked forward before him, and seemed to not care at all about the outcome of this proposal, and just spoke casually.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa thought about it and followed.

"Ok."

-

"What does Mr. Hirakawa usually do?"

"Well... apart from work, you probably spend most of your time reading, right?"

"Reading?" It was an expected answer. For example, when we said goodbye this morning, the teacher was still saying that he was reading Stray Birds.

But there are also things worth being curious about.

"Does Mr. Pingchuan deliberately memorize the content when reading a book?"

"I wouldn't memorize it on purpose..." Hirakawa Tetsufumi shook his head.

"That is?"

"I just read casually, and I'm generally not too picky about books. I can say I enjoy reading, but I don't seek to understand everything."

"Mr. Wu Liu?"

"Yes."

"What did Mr. Hirakawa recite this morning from Stray Birds?"

"I didn't memorize it," Hirakawa Tetsufumi denied. "I just wrote it down while watching it."

"..."

"Why, you don't believe it?"

Shinohara Shiori did not disbelieve it.

"So what is Mr. Pingchuan doing in class today?"

“…Did you notice that?”

As the teacher asked, the two reached the shoe closet and she walked in.

Rather, it was surprising for her that she didn't notice it.

A reply came from behind.

"I just wrote it down by the way. Also, I did this because of a bet."

A bet?

What's the bet?

-

When Shinohara Shiori's question was answered, the two had already changed their shoes and walked out of the shoe closet, each holding an umbrella under the rainy sky.

As they walked, Tetsufumi Hirakawa continued the previous topic and explained.

"It's mainly because of Mr. Hisata, she..."

However, the attempted explanation did not last long.

"Teacher Hirakawa."

Shinohara Shiori suddenly interrupted him with a harsh voice.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Tetsufumi Hirakawa turned his head and asked in confusion.

"..."

Shinohara Shiori held an umbrella, hiding her expression under it.

Hisada-sensei...?

When they were together, she didn't want to discuss others with her teacher Pingchuan.

"nothing."

She raised her head and smiled at Tetsufumi Hirakawa.

"But, I want to know, besides reading, what does Mr. Pingchuan usually do?"

"This one……"

Hirakawa Tetsufumi blinked.

He still didn't know why he suddenly changed the subject.

However, faced with the girl's question, he finally chose to answer.

"Besides reading, I also take care of cats. Mr. Shinohara knows that the teacher has four cats at home..."

"..."

However, Shinohara Shiori just fell silent again.

She had no problem with cats. She had seen these four yesterday and they were indeed cute.

But... discussing these four cats reminded her of Amamiya Yoru.

She doesn't want it.

-

The willful eldest lady was in an even worse mood.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi carefully observed Shinohara Shiori's reaction, feeling the sudden low pressure around him, and finally came to and confirmed this conclusion.

"..."

But... why.

I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out.

Holding an umbrella, Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at the rainy world outside the umbrella and fell into deep thought.

What did he say that made this young lady unhappy?

Or maybe it reminded her of something that already made her unhappy?

I do not know.

That’s why I say that if you have something to say, you have to say it out loud. Otherwise, people will just keep guessing and no one will be able to guess.

The thoughts of adolescent girls are more difficult to understand than reading comprehension.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa was a little distressed.

So what to do now?

Chapter 175 The Proud Miss Is Not Involved in the Mundane World

Tetsufumi Hirakawa has not yet come up with a countermeasure, but Shinohara Shiori beside him has already responded first.

She sighed.

"Teacher Hirakawa, please talk about the wind orchestra."

"..."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at the girl who felt inexplicably helpless.

"……is this okay?"

"..."

To be honest, Shinohara Shiori was not willing to do so, but she also knew that a little bit of willfulness would be enough.

She nodded slightly.

"Teacher Hirakawa, please start."

"..."

I have to say, Shinohara Shiori is totally incomprehensible today. From this morning till now, she has become very...

I don’t know how to describe it.

In short, her personality is still the same, but he always feels that the girl's behavior has suddenly changed overnight, and he can't understand it anymore.
