I am a teacher at a girls' school in Tokyo

The slightly cool air in April, the clear bird songs in my ears, and the clear blue sky in the morning.

Wrapping the body in such an environment, the spirit is also lifted.

Now it's time to really go to work.

-

By the time Tetsufumi Hirakawa arrived at the school gate, less than twenty minutes had passed.

At this time, the golden morning light has appeared, and the campus is bathed in the sun. The words "Private Moritani Girls' High School" are shining.

On both sides of the school gate, the cherry blossoms had almost withered away over the weekend. It was difficult to see the cherry blossoms on the trees, and the ground was covered with pink petals that had not been cleaned up in time.

Groups of high school girls in plaid skirts walked into the campus, stepping on cherry blossom petals, their stockings connected into one piece.

How should I put it? Being a teacher in a girls’ high school might seem... quite subtle to others.

However, Tetsuwen Hirakawa himself knew that, just like a patient in the eyes of a doctor, other people could not guarantee it, but at least for Tetsuwen Hirakawa, female students were just students.

Besides, there are female students in normal schools too.

If you think about it this way, it’s just that the proportion of girls is a little larger, and there’s nothing subtle about it.

However, among a group of female high school students, the young teacher Tetsufumi Hirakawa is still quite conspicuous.

And young and handsome male teachers will definitely attract attention. Just like when I was in school, boys always liked young and beautiful female teachers more.

"I will never miss the teacher's class. Even if my legs are broken, I will crawl to school to listen." - I still can't forget the declaration of a boy when I was in school.

So, it’s no big deal. Occasionally, when a female high school student sees him and exclaims “so handsome” it’s just a normal expression of emotion - and most of the students who can say this will forget about him when they see other handsome boys.

Just like that, I walked into the school gate calmly, and amid the energetic conversations, the shouts called "youth" from the playground gradually rang in my ears.

The students in these sports clubs really work hard in training.

As I was feeling emotional, the sound of some musical instrument began to float melodiously in my ears.

"..."

If I heard correctly, this should be the instrument of the wind orchestra.

After listening carefully for several seconds, a wind band instructor finally came to the above conclusion.

I have to say that I am a little incompetent as a teacher. Even Hirakawa Tetsufumi felt a little ashamed at this moment.

Are you going to the wind band today?

Well... forget it now, I'm still quite busy... Although I don't know what I'm busy with, it should be quite busy anyway, so let's go in the afternoon.

Well, of course I made this decision.

Then, a greeting suddenly came from behind.

"Teacher Hirakawa."

At that moment, Hirakawa Tetsufumi thought it was Shinohara Shiori who came, and was ready to catch her... ready to invite her to join the wind band. But when he carefully distinguished, it was actually Amamiya Yo's voice.

He breathed a sigh of relief guiltily, turned around, and it was indeed Amamiya Ye.

"Good morning, Amamiya-san."

Amamiya Yo, who looked cute and well-behaved in her uniform, bowed.

"good morning teacher."

"Yeah. Amamiya-san, what's going on?"

"Teacher, the cat is at your house now, right?"

"Yes."

"I want to know, has the teacher taken good care of them?"

"Well... of course."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa showed an affirmative expression as he recalled this weekend.

"Of course."

Except for one secret that can never be told.

Chapter 28 The meeting between Amamiya Yoru and Shinohara Shiori

Regarding what happened on Friday, it is something that Tetsufumi Hirakawa must never reveal. It is a secret that he must take to the grave even after his death. He must not tell anyone.

That incident brought back some very bad memories for him, and it was embarrassing even when he thought about it alone.

However, Tetsufumi Hirakawa believes that he cannot be blamed for this.

If it weren't for a certain strange group member, he wouldn't have done such a strange thing as using the system on the cat. So the source of everything is that netizen.

But for this slightly perverted behavior, well, only a little bit, it's not like there is no gain at all.

At least Tetsufumi Hirakawa knew that the system also works on animals... Yes.

If you read the system's instructions carefully, you will find that the system's words are: find the other party's weaknesses, threaten them with words in the above format, and force them to agree to something you want.

"other side".

It is not necessarily a human requirement.

As a Chinese teacher, I am so insensitive to language that I didn’t realize it until last Friday... Mainly because this idea is too... unconventional.

It's normal to not think of it for a moment.

Who would have thought that even if the other party was an animal and could not understand human language at all, it could be controlled by the system?

Isn’t the power of language too deep into the soul?

Recalling what happened on Friday, Tetsufumi Hirakawa fell into a subtle silence, and said in a very unpleasant way.

Seeing the white cat meowing humiliatingly under the pressure of his touch, he felt that his soul had become a little unclean.

"..."

No, I can’t recall it anymore.

Throwing this memory into the corner of his mind, Tetsufumi Hirakawa gave Amemiya Yo a very natural smile, so natural that it seemed a little unnatural.

"Anyway, all four cats are doing well."

"...Teacher." The sensitive Amemiya Ye stared at the smile and finally said in a low voice, "I feel like your smile is a little strange."

"..."

He fell silent, put away his smile, and turned his head to look at the road ahead.

"That's not true. It's just your illusion, Amamiya-san."

"……OK."

I heard Amemiya Ye's low response from behind me, followed by a moment of silence before asking again.

"And how are they now?"

Hirakawa Tetsufumi glanced back and saw the girl with her head down - when she didn't reveal her chuunibyou personality, she was a very quiet student - but even so, one could imagine her love for those cats.

After all, I had to go find them even if I was late or skipped classes.

So let’s talk about the cats in detail, otherwise the girl who hasn’t seen them for two days will probably be thinking about them all the time.

"Don't worry, the teacher thinks he's taking good care of me. For example..."

"On Friday, I gave the cat a bath. Then I bought cat litter and a litter box."

"I used my free time on Saturday to change their nest using a cardboard box. They seem to like it very much."

"As for Sunday, I was woken up by the cat knocking on the door in the morning. I went out and found that it had eaten all the cat food that Amamiya-san prepared, so I went to buy some more cat food."

"I also prepared some goat milk. I found out when I was looking it up online that newborn cats can drink this."

"When I went out today, I checked the doors and windows."

"So, without boasting, I am very careful and take good care of them. Amamiya-san doesn't need to worry."

"..."

After saying this, there was no response for a long time. I had to look at Yu Gong Ye again and met her blank gaze.

"teacher."

"Ok?"

"Did you spend money..."

It was clear from the look on her face what the girl was worried about, so Tetsufumi Hirakawa smiled and made a joke.

"If I hadn't paid, Amamiya-san would have seen me at the police station instead of here."

"This……"

"Don't worry, it's okay. Cats are cute and I like them too. I volunteered to do this, not because Amamiya-san asked me to."

"I..." Yu Gongye was speechless.

"Anyway, don't worry about it. If you really care... No, it's nothing."

I wanted to say, "If you really care, just make up your mind quickly," but then I thought that would put pressure on this already sensitive girl. So forget it.

Finally, he summarized.

"Cats are really cute. So cute that you would voluntarily spend money on them. So, Amamiya-san doesn't have to blame yourself for this."

There is a little bit of girlishness in this, but it is also mostly true. The cat is really cute and feels good to the touch.

The most important thing is... Tetsufumi Hirakawa is not short of money in this life.

Well, it’s a very realistic question.

But that's it.

Finally, the girl, who didn't know what to say, whispered "thank you" to him.

Then the two of them walked into the shoe closet in the teaching building one after the other.

——I met Shinohara Shiori.

……

The girl with shoulder-length hair, holding the white shoes she had just changed in her hands, her straight legs wrapped in white stockings, bowed gracefully.

"Good morning, Mr. Hirakawa."

She has a clear voice and her every move carries the air of a young lady from a noble family. It is none other than Shinohara Shiori.

"..."

I have to admit that when Tetsufumi Hirakawa walked into the shoe closet and saw the girl at the corner, he was a little panicked for a moment.

Obviously he was the teacher and she was the student, but he still felt a little guilty, worried that she would bring up the matter of the wind orchestra again.

Is this the power of oppression from the eldest lady?

Although he was thinking of some inexplicable things, Tetsufumi Hirakawa still did not forget to reply with a greeting.

"Good morning, Shinohara-san."

"This classmate is..." After greeting, Shinohara Shiori turned her gaze to Amemiya Yoru who was following behind Hirakawa Tetsufumi, "Is this Amemiya classmate?"

Can you match the names of your new classmates to their names within a week? You have a really good memory.

As a teacher, Tetsufumi Hirakawa thinks he can't do it.

"Good morning, Amamiya-san. I'm Shinohara Shiori."

"..."

Being stared at by a strange classmate, Amemiya Ye seemed a little quiet, and only bowed after a moment.

"Good morning, Shinohara-san."

Who could have imagined that such a quiet girl actually had a problem with the second-year syndrome?

After the greetings, Tetsufumi Hirakawa saw that Shinohara Shiori turned around and put the shoes in her hand into the shoe cabinet.

Then she faced him again, hands behind her back, head tilted, smiling.
