We should also learn from Chuunibyou

Ogata Rizu said this casually, her arm hanging naturally by her legs moved inadvertently and touched Hayakawa's hand, and they separated as soon as they touched.

The evening breeze blew over Rizu Ogata's shirt ties and skirt, causing them to flutter lightly. It also lifted the hair in front of her forehead, which floated lightly in the air like timeless notes.

If Hayakawa tilted his head slightly, he could look down at the towering bulge on her shirt, her delicate little face and eyes as bright as stars under the street light. Her eyes seemed to be looking at him, but also as if looking past him at the huge department store in the distance, glittering silver under the setting sun.

"I…"

The boy's clear image was reflected in Ogata Rizu's eyes. After a long while, she seemed to muster up the courage and whispered, "I hope Hayakawa you..."

"Pay more attention to me."

she says.

Hayakawa widened his eyes slightly. He could feel the slight tremor in the voice of the girl in front of him, which made him feel even more shocked.

What's happening here…

I hope I can control her better. Am I not paying enough attention to her? Apart from my own studies, I am almost entirely focused on how to make you progress. If this is not considered caring, then all the teachers in this school should be executed.

Hayakawa's eyebrows were twisted into a knot, and he wanted to say something vaguely: "I..."

Ogata Rizu reached out and held Hayakawa's hand, making him swallow back all the words he was about to say.

"I decided to study psychology because I wanted to win at games,"

Ogata Rizu gently grasped Hayakawa's hand, and seemed to be talking to herself or to Hayakawa: "But now, I want to understand other people's hearts... That's why I must study psychology!"

Ogata's expression was extremely serious, as if he was making a silent promise in his heart.

She looked at the person in front of her with eyes flickering, as if tears were about to fall at the next moment.

Own…

Want to know others better, want to know myself better, want to know more...

Get to know you a little bit.

Ogata Rizu stared at Hayakawa and said softly in her heart.

"..."

Hayakawa was silent for a long time, then smiled: "Isn't this good? I will support you."

Ogata Rizu seemed to be relieved when she saw this, and then she naturally let go of Hayakawa's hand, smiled and said softly: "Thank you, Hayakawa, it's great to meet you."

The girl smiled brightly, her eyes filled with all the joy and beauty in the world.

"Oh it's all right."

Hayakawa nodded expressionlessly.

There's no need to thank me. After all, I had no good intention in teaching you.

The two walked along the road to the tram stop, then took the same tram as usual, got off at the same stop, then said goodbye to each other and parted ways, just as usual.

Hayakawa walked on the night road towards his own community. The sky was clear tonight and the air was filled with a refreshing atmosphere.

As Hayakawa walked, he remembered the feeling of Ogata Rizu holding his hand, and couldn't help but sighed slightly: "Ah..."

What happened today really gave him a headache. First of all, due to force majeure, he had offended Furuno Furuma badly, and as a result, he received a heavy blow on the neck, which still hurts now.

Secondly, Ogata Rizu was worried and anxious for unknown reasons, and she fawned on him like a concubine who had lost her favor in ancient times, and seduced him with her beauty.

What the hell is going on… am I biased in some way?

Hayakawa couldn't figure it out. As a teacher, he must be fair in everything he does.

"..."

Hayakawa thought hard, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out that it was because of the name of the club, so he could only worry about it.

"Forget it, if you don't understand it, don't think about it."

Hayakawa shook his head and was too lazy to think. He planned to continue solving the problem using the methods he used in the past. As long as he assigned excessive tasks to Furuhashi and Ogata, they would not have any wild thoughts.

As long as enough questions are asked, Furuhashi won't get angry, and Ogata won't worry about gains and losses. He can still control the overall situation as a chess player.

Thinking of this, Hayakawa's steps became lighter and he quickly went home to study.

……

The next day, during the lunch break at the library, Hayakawa walked to the library as usual.

"Hayakawa-san,"

Furuhashi Fumino was sitting in her original position. When she saw Hayakawa, she immediately said sinisterly, "You're here."

Chapter 184: Tired Hayakawa

Horrible, this expression is terrible...

Hayakawa was a little nervous in his heart, but he looked calm on the surface. He sat down calmly and held out his hand to the two of them: "Please take out yesterday's test paper. If you have any questions about the questions, you can tell me now. I will answer all your questions."

"Ah, I have a question."

Ogata Rizu raised her hand.

"Very good, you are not ashamed to ask!"

Hayakawa shouted in encouragement, “Please speak!”

"I had about fifty questions for yesterday's reading comprehension test,"

Ogata Rizu said calmly: "First of all, this uncle in the first reading, why is the article

Chapter 185: The Progress of the Two Girls

After Ogata Rizu finished asking questions, it was Furuno Furuma's turn.

"Gu Qiao, are these the only questions you have? There are so many papers and only a few questions. That's a bit too few."

After Hayakawa answered Furumo Fumino's question, he looked at her with a bit of suspicion and said, "You didn't do it seriously, did you?"

It took nearly an hour to answer Ogata Riju's question, but it only took more than ten minutes to answer Furuhashi's question, which made Hayakawa a little dissatisfied.

"I must have done it seriously. That's all I have to ask."

Gu Qiao Fuminai puffed up her cheeks, and a hint of shame and anger appeared in her eyes.

I deliberately reduced the number of questions because I was afraid that people would dislike me for having too many questions. I also wanted you to relax a little, but in the end I was suspected of not doing the test paper well. It seems that good people are not rewarded.

"Uh...okay."

Hayakawa was stunned and said, "Maybe your grades have improved a bit."

"That's... not possible. I'm still far from it."

Upon hearing this, Fumino Guqiao's pretty face immediately blushed and she lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, but she couldn't help but feel happy in her heart.

"No, I'm telling the truth."

Hayakawa clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the two girls: "Based on my current opinion of your academic level, as long as you perform well in the upcoming monthly exams, you will have no problem at least passing all of them."

"Ehhhhh?"

Guqiao and Ogata both widened their eyes at the same time: "Really?"

Both of them were shocked because they still remembered when they first met Hayakawa and started teaching, the school's strict requirements required them to pass the monthly exams. The two girls suffered a lot to get this passing level. Not only were they forced to live in Hayakawa's house, they didn't have much fun studying in the forest afterwards. Even in the test of courage, Hayakawa called them back and they had to study until late at night. Looking back now, those were simply devilish days.

But even so, he was able to pass the test in the end only because Hayakawa spent a lot of time studying the test questions. After that, his grades naturally dropped.

And now, can I finally pass the exam based on my own strength without considering other factors?

There was surprise in Furuno Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata's eyes, and they clasped their hands together involuntarily due to nervousness, looking at Hayakawa with uncontrollable uneasiness in their hearts.

"Yes,"

Hayakawa responded to their expectations and nodded. He seemed to be in a good mood. He said jokingly, "As long as you don't get sick suddenly, get lost in the examination room, or encounter a natural disaster, there will be absolutely no problem in passing the exam."

"yeah!"

Gu Qiao first stretched out his hand and clapped with Ogata to celebrate, then he suddenly seemed to react and looked at Hayakawa angrily, puffing up his face and saying, "Who would get lost in the examination room? And don't be a pessimist, there will be no natural disaster!"

"Ahem, just a joke."

Hayakawa coughed lightly and said expressionlessly that it was his own joke, a joke of the Emperor!

"Hey~"

Gu Qiao curled his lips, then turned around and shared his joy with Ogata Rizu with a smile on his face: "That's great, Ri-chan, we have finally improved to a level that can pass."

"Yeah, Fumino."

Ogata Rizu's eyes behind her glasses were also filled with smiles: "We have made progress."

Hayakawa looked at the two of them quietly, seeing the joy in their eyes, he knew where this joy came from.

It is because they see hope. The dream that was once out of reach in their hearts is finally becoming less out of reach. It becomes within their reach and they can get closer to it.

What a good thing.

Hayakawa sighed: "Ah..."

They are getting closer to their dreams, but what about me? When will I be able to get one step closer to the dream that I have been stepping on?

"Now we really see hope. It took us only half a year to improve our scores from single digits to passing grades. We have made tremendous progress."

Furuno Fumino smiled and said, "There are still more than three years to go. Maybe we can reach the level of our dreams soon."

Hayakawa: “…”

A bit optimistic, eh?

Hayakawa looked at Furuhashi and Ogata, who were opening bottles of champagne, and felt that he had to discourage them, so he said without hesitation: "Don't be too complacent. You are just barely passing now. If you perform too poorly, it will be normal for your grades to not reach the passing line."

"Ogata, I'm most worried about you in this regard,"

Before the two girls could answer, Hayakawa looked at Ogata and said seriously, "I saw your comprehensive evaluation score yesterday. It's not ideal."

"…Um."

Upon hearing this, Ogata Rizu lowered her head and responded weakly with a gloomy look.

"Don't take that too seriously. Although the level evaluation is said to have some value, it's actually just a reference."

Hayakawa scratched his head and consoled him, "When you take a few more tests and perform normally, your evaluation will naturally improve. Don't let this matter distract you and affect your mentality.

"Ok."

Ogata Rizu looked up at Hayakawa and nodded vigorously after listening to him: "I know."

"that is it."

Hayakawa felt relieved when he saw Ogata, who was looking down and behaving very well.

What? It’s still the obedient Ogata from before, the chess piece that is easiest to control.

It turns out that the recent abnormal situations were my misunderstanding.

"It's about time to go back to class then. I'll leave after I finish solving this problem."

Hayakawa felt somewhat satisfied and decided to continue his research.

"Before again, I have a question."

Upon hearing this, Ogata Rizu looked up at Hayakawa.

"Ok?"

Hayakawa looked at her suspiciously: "What's the problem?"

Haven’t we asked all fifty questions?

"No."

Ogata Rizu shook her head, and looked at Hayakawa and then at Furuhashi. Although her face was slightly flushed, she still said seriously: "We are all similar...it's time to call each other by our names."

Hayakawa: “…”

As expected, you are still very jumpy.

"Ehhhhh?"
