Zongman, working as a teaching assistant in Trasen

"Senior Hayabusa said you drank the strengthening potion she made, and recently you've been in a physical state similar to that of a horse girl. We don't know much more..."

"...Shuzi, what a jerk! He clearly told her not to tell anyone else and worry about them..."

"!! Please don't blame Hayabusa-senpai! We forced her to tell us this!!"

Fearing that Uozuka Saburo would cause trouble for Airi Hayako, Silent Suzuka quickly came over, looked up at Uozuka Saburo with her big watery eyes and said, "If you really want to punish... please punish me!"

Chapter 111 Is this necessary?

Why is this little girl's face so red?

Also, it would be fine if she pleaded for a classmate, but why would she speak for Airi Hayako?

Could it be that... these two girls had reached some unspeakable deal somewhere unknown to me?

For example...testing medicine?

Yes! Test the medicine!

Her current state is like she has taken some strange medicine and her body has become abnormal!!

But why did everything look fine when I first came in? And hasn't that guy Suzi been researching an antidote for himself lately?

...It seems that it is really necessary to go to Airi Hayabusa's science department first and teach this crazy scientist a lesson.

"Hmm..."

"...Okay, I understand. Don't worry."

Recalling the agonizing feeling of wanting to curse the first time he'd been forced to drink the horsegirl potion, Uozuka Saburo fondly stroked Silent Suzuka's ear, ignoring the strange whimpering she couldn't help but let out again. "Go back and get some rest. If you're still feeling unwell by night, tell your roommates and classmates and have them take you to the infirmary. If that doesn't work, call me and I'll take you off campus to the hospital for a checkup. Got it?"

"...Yeah, I see. Thank you."

"Yeah. Be careful, eh?"

No longer trying to touch Silent Suzuka's body, Silent Suzuka no longer approached Uozuka Saburo. He bowed to him from a distance and walked slowly downstairs in small steps.

...Alisako, you are guilty of a heinous crime!

Having decided on the next itinerary in his mind, Uozuka Saburo just turned around and wanted to go back to the house to find a more normal set of clothes to put on, when he was suddenly covered in the face by a black cloth flying towards him.

When he took it off, he saw that it was the tuxedo jacket he had just put on and put on the back of the chair.

"Look at me, look at me! Wearing this, I look like a super chairman!"

"It just feels so inappropriate! Your figure can't support this dress at all, Comrade Chairman! Hurry and change it so I can wear it!"

"Hey~ Ulala likes this~"

"Okay, okay, let me see... Hey~ Isn't this just cut out of some really crappy fabric? When I have time, I'll make you something better-looking, Ulala!"

"..."

It seems that before he teaches Airi Suzuko a lesson for not using her classmates as experimental subjects, he has to first educate these little girls who are worse than thieves for breaking into the teacher's house.

----------

After giving a good beating to the four horse girls who showed no remorse like Suzuka and treated the invasion of the dormitory as an adventure game, each of them was given a big bump on the head and sent back to the playground for extra training, Uozuka Saburo finally had time to pack up and leave.

Before leaving, he had to tidy up the messed-up closet and then use a hidden machine hidden in the partition wall to send out the organized report. However, it took him a lot of effort to reach the science room where Airi Hayabusa was before the bell rang.

As a result...this guy actually went to class!

It’s a rare opportunity to go to class!!

I'd heard from Director Qingmen before that she'd already earned a double PhD in biochemistry back in junior high. The academy had gone to great lengths to recruit her from a top university. One of the conditions was that she'd be given a separate science room and their attendance wouldn't be monitored. She'd only have to take the same easy-to-understand exams at the end of the semester as everyone else.

Just in case, Uozuka Saburo took a look at the date on his mobile phone to confirm that the time was still hovering within October and did not jump directly to January at the end of the semester. He couldn't help but feel even more confused.

This bastard... Is there some difficult problem he can't figure out, so he ran to the Novice Village to enjoy the joy of slaughtering the whole village?

Not afraid of being beaten to death...

"Ugh......"

There was no other way, so Uozuka Saburo had to take out his cell phone and reluctantly sat in the science laboratory where he had such a painful experience, while keeping track of several pending matters and waiting for Airi Hayako to come back.

Although his current physical condition seems to be good, not only has his appearance become younger, but some of the increased horse girl power in his body has been retained, and he does not feel any hidden injuries left after the "repayment"... But after drinking the horse girl potion, he did not feel anything before the first loss of effect. He was in great health, right?

God knows what kind of abnormal mutation happened to the horsegirl potion in the syringe on Airi's wristband that turned him into what he is now... If it's some kind of "eternal youth, increased strength, but only a mere ten years of life left" effect, then that's ridiculous...

After going through so much, Uozuka Saburo believes that for the handmade potion made by Ali Hayako, everything is possible!

Beep beep beep.

"? You finally replied to my message, this guy..."

Hearing the familiar ringtone, Saburo Uozuka came back to his senses from his worried delusion. Looking at the words "From: Uozuka Yumi" displayed on the phone screen, he sneered and opened the letter with gritted teeth.

...Well, I don’t understand it at all!

Or maybe he figured out that this was a condolence report written entirely in code, but this combination of hot girl language and Martian language… he literally couldn't understand it at all!!

Is this really necessary?! It's already a code to decode text messages, and you're adding another layer of code? Is this really necessary?!

Do you really think he has nothing to do all day long and just sits here translating your code words?

His face turned black as charcoal on the spot. Uozuka Saburo wanted to catch this bastard witch who was always out of line and beat her up, but then he recalled the experience of being beaten like a toy by the other party when he first joined the organization. He could only sigh helplessly and quickly edited a text message in a style that was suitable for "siblings who haven't seen each other for many years". He repeated the details of what happened last night to her and also reported the changes that happened to him this morning.

I left in a hurry just now and only informed my eldest brother about my safety status and the twenty "Seven-Colored Horseshoe Stones" I got, but did not report the matter of rejuvenation. Now it is okay to ask her, a senior cadre, to help convey it according to the procedure.

She was the last one to arrive at last night's operation. Logically speaking, as a higher-ranking code member, she would automatically become the commander-in-chief and would be obligated to summarize the members' reports and submit them.

According to his thinking, even the original drug organization of the Horse Girl Potion didn't take it seriously. He didn't know whether it should be considered an effect or a side effect. He should just mention it and there would be no follow-up work for him to do. But he didn't expect that ten seconds later...

Beep beep beep. Beep beep beep.

Sender: Yumi Uozuka

Content: Is it convenient to answer the phone now? Mom is coming over and wants to chat with you for a while.

"...???"

Chapter 112 You are the real bald Wu Ke!

No? What's going on?!

How did it suddenly become such a serious issue as "a call from my mom"?

Uozuka Saburo's expression changed slightly, and his mind instantly became relaxed.

Among the emergency contact codes he and "Uozuka Yumi" developed, "Mom is here and wants to chat with you for a while" is the fourth most serious situation after "Dad passed away, come back quickly" and "Your brother-in-law is sick and there is no one to take care of Mom at home." It means that the relevant matter is very important. Generally, it will only be issued when a code member defected and needed to be hunted down, or when important items were discovered and orders were issued to take them.

...Huh? Why is it the fourth most serious and not the third? Of course, it's because the first most serious message, "Mom doesn't recognize you as her son anymore," will only be sent to your phone after you've been cleared out, right?

The contact settings of the Thousand-Faced Witch are so funny.

Recently, the investigation of traitors in the Tokyo area has been in the hands of the eldest brother. Even if he is really forced to hunt down the traitors, it should be the eldest brother who sends him instructions through text messages - such as going to such and such a place to meet his mother or something - so the current situation must be the second one, that is, the fact that he has become younger is very, very important to the organization!

...Are they going to take him for biopsy? He doesn't think this is such a serious matter, does he?

Although he had such fear and worry in his heart, Uozuka Saburo, who was well aware of the organization's "presumption of guilt" style of operation, knew that if he did not answer the call, his fate would definitely be ten times worse than if he answered it.

Now all he could do was hope that this Thousand-Faced Witch would be reliable for once and not cheat him...

"Mr. Uozuka's mother?"

"!!!???"

A disembodied voice suddenly appeared behind him, frightening Uozuka Saburo so much that his hair stood on end. He almost couldn't hold back and threw an elbow!

Wait! It hasn't come to that yet!

The text messages he was reading were completely normal! They didn't reveal anything about the organization!

Thinking these things through in 0.1 seconds, Uozuka Saburo quickly composed himself. He shuddered suddenly like a normal person who was startled, turned his head sharply, and let out a strange cry:

"Wooooaaaaaah! Yes, it's you!"

Black hair and golden eyes, with a soft voice and a light figure, Ma Musume Manchester Tea House appeared silently behind Uozuka Saburo, looked at him expressionlessly and said: "If you don't want to go, call your mother? She's waiting for you, right?"

"...Ah? Oh, no."

Quickly typing a code to indicate he was nearby, Uozuka Saburo casually slipped his phone into his pocket and said with an annoyed expression, "That old woman...she believed what others said about big cities being unsafe. She's always trying to get me to quit my job here and go back home to farm. Every time we're supposed to chat, she always turns the topic to this. I don't bother with her."

"...It's really not good that Uozuka-sensei resigned."

Manchester City Tea House shook his head, took two steps closer to him and said with his head held high, "But you still have to call your family. Communicate well, and there will always be a solution."

"...Let's talk about it later. I don't have any achievements right now, so I can't convince her."

He portrayed the image of a migrant worker in the East who wanted to make a living in the big city but was always called back home by his family to perfection. Uozuka Saburo waved his hand nonchalantly and changed the subject casually, "Um, why are you here? Where's Hayabusa?"

"It's a regular meeting of the Science Department. Tachyon is the department head and must attend."

Manchester City Tea House's eyes drifted upwards, staring straight at Uozuka Saburo's head and saying, "As for me, I'm staying here, waiting for your arrival."

"Huh? How did you know I was coming?"

"Because Tachyon knows. I'm right next to Tachyon, so I know."

"...Wait, what do you mean by Hayabusa knew I was coming—that she was spying on me?"

"Ah."

"Depend on!"

Saburo Uozuka's mind exploded as if a nuclear bomb had detonated. The suppressed murderous intent suddenly erupted, and he couldn't help but recall his various schedules in the past few days.

Is Airi Hayabusa spying on him?

How was the surveillance carried out? From where? When did the surveillance begin? To what extent was it carried out?

More importantly... how much does she know about the organization?

Could it be that her disappearance now is just that!?

No... calm down and don't lose your composure.

He had not contacted the organization in the past two days, and the few communications he had made were all conducted in code. It looked no different from an ordinary family quarrel and would definitely not arouse suspicion.

And why now? Why leave another "insider" behind? Are they trying to threaten him?

I still have the leverage over Elise! If it really comes down to a fight to the death, it's not certain who will live and who will die!

"...Huh~teahouse, you..."

"What's wrong, teacher? You look, scared?"

As if sensing Uozuka Saburo's emotions, Manchester Tea House nodded, but his reaction was completely beyond Uozuka Saburo's expectations: "Indeed... Although I didn't know it last night, seeing you with my own eyes, I can imagine that you must have suffered a lot, right?"

"...Wait, what do you mean I didn't know last night?"

You're going to die early, fellow teahouse student! ?

"Last night, Suzuko said the machine was broken and refused to believe it. But I know it, ok?"

Facing Uozuka Saburo, who had gradually calmed down after realizing that things were not what he thought, Manchester City Tea House walked to a workbench, opened the thick white cloth covering it and said, "Because the machine spirit has already told me everything."

“…Huh? What?”

"Actually, you're the bald Wu Ke team member who sneaked into the campus and secretly protected Ma Musume's chastity from the evil monster, right?"

"...Oh, that..."

I'm so tired, so alone

For a moment, he felt that he was being idiotic for being so serious about his murderous intent. Uozuka Saburo kept a wooden face and remained silent for two seconds. Then, in a pure and unforced voice, he said, "Ha, ha, ha. I never thought someone would see through my true identity... How did you find me?"

"Of course, rely on this child!"

Quickly approaching Uozuka Saburo, Manchester Tea House stared at him with sparkling golden eyes, and his calm voice could hardly suppress his excitement: "I've analyzed it, and the only people who fit the original version are you and two other new teachers who have been in school for about a year. The rumor only appeared in the school after you came, which means that there were no suspicious incidents in the school before you came. Plus, that bowler hat that he never takes off, all the evidence points to one result - you, are the real bald Wu Ke!"

"..."
