Zongman, working as a teaching assistant in Trasen

Holding onto Oguruma's arm, Fujimasa marched to the gathering group of students. He smiled warmly and said, "Let the adults handle their own affairs. Our star alumnus has finally returned, so how can we let these lovely juniors go home empty-handed? Let's take your two new friends on a tour of Kasamatsu Teresen!"

"......bright?"

"Fufu~ I'm really interested in Kasamatsu's campus~ Miss Maki feels the same way, right?"

"Huh? I... uh, am also very interested..."

"Well... then, let's head to the cafeteria first!!!"

----------

Saburo Uozuka had not foreseen what kind of nightmare memories his brief "free-range" behavior would bring back to the cafeteria staff of Kasamatsu Tressen. He was in a very relaxed mood at the moment. He took a sip of the black tea in his hand and smacked his lips.

"Oh? I thought the strictly managed Kasamatsu Tressen wouldn't prepare high-quality tea for guests, but I wasn't expecting you to use such high-quality tea. This agent—doesn't this seem inconsistent with your style?"

"A strict management system naturally requires a rigorous material foundation to support its implementation. If we don't even provide those who comply with the system with the necessary material conditions to complete their tasks, what reason do we have to ask them to abide by the rules?"

Making herself a cup, Riko took an elegant sip of tea, swallowing it silently. "According to regulations, the chairman's office at the local Tresen Academy is often the first stop for receiving superiors, visiting parents, or important alumni. It should always have standard reception supplies, and use supplies appropriate to the visitor's rank. Therefore, this is completely in compliance with the rules and regulations."

"Wow, that's really great! Even an ordinary Central Tresen training instructor like me can drink such sweet tea. It seems that the reception standards you set for this place are really high-end, right?"

Shaking his head, Uozuka Saburo nudged Kitahara Jo, who hadn't been offered tea, with his elbow and jokingly said, "When you pass the Central Training Program, be sure to come back here often to see Agent Ben. Honestly, this tea is seriously delicious."

"Heh, heh...I will."

Kitahara Rang responded with a forced smile.

Chapter 207 I Will Repay You~ (Two in One)

"Now that we've had tea and greeted each other, shouldn't I tell you what you want me to do?"

"..."

Silence. Riko did not express her intention as readily as Kitahara Joi had imagined. Instead, she remained silent for a moment, which was very rare, as if she was thinking about something, which surprised him.

"I heard someone say..."

The atmosphere didn't remain tense for long. Riko Ben quickly came to her senses, crossed her hands on her knees, and said seriously, "Teacher Uozuka, are you preparing to reform the education system in Central Tresen?"

"......Ah."

What does it mean that Kasamatsu Tresen Academy and Central Tresen have little communication and information connection is somewhat blocked?

Even this matter, which can be regarded as the most confidential of Central Tresen, has been revealed, yet we are still cut off from information and communication?

Shit!

"I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with Chairman Akikawa? She would even tell you something like this."

"...Please don't get me wrong, my relationship with her has always been bad. There's no intimacy at all."

As if she'd subconsciously felt physically ill at the mere mention of Akikawa Yayoi's name, Rikomoto's face contorted for a moment, her mouth opening to curse. But she forced herself to stop the urge, letting out a long sigh. "It's just that at this moment, we're one of the few companions who share the same aspirations... or at least roughly the same."

"Besides her, I can't find another 'comrade' who can stand by me on serious matters."

"I see. That's why you asked me to come here—you want to 'develop' me?"

"Completely correct."

Uozuka Saburo nodded, indicating that he fully understood the whole cause and effect of the matter, and the sense of distance between them also diminished a lot.

Although I had a certain understanding of the power of the little girl chairman, I was still surprised to meet her best friend at a random racecourse I chose. This was beyond my original expectation.

It seems that I need to report to my boss and ask them to adjust the plan. If the probability of success of the reform plan increases, the benefits that the organization can obtain by using myself as a connection point will be higher, and it is worth the additional investment.

"Well, you are indeed a smart man. This makes me feel much more at ease."

Seeing that the other party understood the meaning of her words and gave the correct response, Riko couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She straightened her back and instantly regained her aura of a strong woman. She tilted her head slightly to look at Kitahara Jo, who was a little behind the pace, and said, "However, before we begin the formal discussion, I would like to confirm your position on our school's trainer Kitahara. Is that okay?"

"Of course, I intend to have him participate in our business. I will start training him once he obtains the Central Trainer Qualification Certificate."

"Uh, huh? Cultivate?"

"Excuse me, but I hope you can give this matter some more thought. He isn't the type of person to be entrusted with important tasks. If you assign him a task, there's a high probability that he'll mess it up."

"Hey! What do you mean? I'm reliable, okay? It's obviously you who gave me the task, but it's so difficult and impossible to do it!"

"Oh, other trainers can do it, why can't you? You're slacking off and pretending to obey but actually disobeying."

"Hey! I'm exploding..."

"Alright, brother Kitahara, calm down."

Although he was somewhat interested in the grudge between Kitahara Jo and Riko, Uozuka Saburo was more concerned with getting the main point across. He patted Kitahara Jo on the back to calm her down, then looked at Riko and said, "Director Himoto, too. Everyone, calm down and don't get too angry at yourselves. Ultimately, we all have the same goal."

"Hmph, you can't say for sure."

Crossing her arms and mumbling something, Riko gave Uozuka Saburo some respect and said nothing further. She straightened her mind and said, "Since you have plans for him, I won't ask any more questions. But you also said you want to wait until he passes the exam before starting his training. If he knew what we were talking about now, it would only create complications. Therefore, he shouldn't be involved in the rest of the conversation."

"Why?! If you don't want me to hear it, just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush!"

"Well... I agree with you, Director Ben."

"......ah?"

Uozuka Saburo stood up and used his burly body to pull up Kitahara Jang, who was still struggling to accept the reality of being "backstabbed." He looked him straight in the eye and said sincerely, "Brother Kitahara, I brought you here today, and I've revealed all the information I wanted to share with you. What follows is not something I can casually share. You need to think it over carefully. When the time comes, I will tell you everything. I swear."

"...Okay, I believe you, Uozuka brother."

After a long silence, Kitahara Ryo didn't say much in the end. He just looked at him seriously behind his sunglasses, patted his shoulder, and turned away.

He is not a man who would give up his trust easily, but once he decides to trust someone, he will move forward without any hesitation.

Just like that morning, when "Kitahara Jones" encountered the "Reed-haired Monster", he was convinced that it was his destiny, even if it meant sacrificing everything he had for it, or even letting go voluntarily in the end.

"......ha."

Seeing that Kitahara Joi actually obeyed and left the chairman's office, Riko let out a sigh of relief, half surprised, half relieved. She looked at Uozuka Saburo with a strange expression and said, "I always thought that no one except Oguruma could easily change Kitahara Joi's behavior... You seem to be very good at dealing with all kinds of people and gaining their trust."

"Well, after all, I've had a lot of weird colleagues when I was working all over the place, so I figured out some methods by figuring it out on my own."

Sitting back on the sofa, Uozuka Saburo didn't want to be interrupted again and asked directly, "Director, my time here is limited. Forgive me for being blunt: what do you want me to do with you? It's definitely not just a casual chat to confirm our identities, right?"

"Why not? Chairman Akikawa is still too young. Even if she has plenty of experience and handles things with confidence, she might still misjudge people. I think it's important to confirm the personal qualities of the people she brings in to entrust important tasks."

After taking a sip of tea and placing the cup back on the saucer, Riko changed the subject and said bluntly, "But indeed, besides confirming your identity, I also want you to do me a favor."

"Sure, tell me."

"Including today, your plan is to stay in Kasamatsu for three days, which means you won't leave until the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, right?"

Riko held up three fingers, then lowered one. "For the rest of today, all of tomorrow, and the morning of the day after tomorrow—a total of approximately 48 hours—I'd like you to walk around the academy and its surroundings, observing the students under my supervision. Before you leave, tell me about their specific, real-life situations—especially their level of acceptance of the system."

"Um......"

Feeling that the description of this commission was strangely familiar, Uozuka Saburo removed his sunglasses, narrowed his triangular eyes slightly, and asked, "You mean... secret police? Detective investigation?"

"Well, you could say that," Ben Riko admitted readily. "Although I have my own team of horsegirls acting as our eyes and ears on campus, they're also students. Some things they understand and don't need to explain to me are actually things I want to know more about... and I can't really force them to 'betray' their classmates like a boss in a business company would, becoming a pariah that everyone would hate, so..."

"You need someone who has no vested interests with Kasamatsu, is completely independent of the outside world, and can evaluate the students on your behalf with absolute objectivity and impartiality, using the evaluation system you require. Is that correct?"

"Yes! Absolutely!"

What Uozuka Saburo said was so accurate that Riko couldn't help but applaud him - he had listed all her needs in a comprehensive manner.

After praising him, Riko couldn't help but sigh in her heart: How could such a capable person be won over by that unreliable little girl Akikawa Yayoi?

Obviously, such talents should be placed under one's own command to play the greatest role...but it is obvious that the other party cannot give up such a high-level status as a central teacher and condescend to be downgraded to a local teacher to teach.

Rather than...

"Okay, I agree to this, Director Jianben."

Uozuka Saburo nodded, put on his sunglasses, and patched himself up. "But please don't put too much hope on my report. I'm not that strong in this area, and time is relatively tight. If there are any inappropriate things, please forgive me."

"No problem. I originally commissioned you to do this on short notice, without even giving you time to prepare. You've already done me a great favor by agreeing to do this."

The two men stood up simultaneously and shook hands ceremoniously. Elite's acting chairman gave a final word of caution: "No need for excessive formalities or bureaucratic rhetoric. I need you to speak your truest thoughts as an educator. Do you understand?"

"Yes, I will definitely live up to your trust."

----------

I took on an easy additional job.

As soon as Kitahara Joi went out, he sent him a message, saying that he should go find Oguruma and the others first to prevent any accidents. Therefore, when Uozuka Saburo walked out of the Kasamatsu Tresen Administrative Building, he did not try to look for him, but happily thought about it in his mind while walking.

Environmental investigations are his forte. Even if he is given 48 hours, even if Riko Motoko asks for a detailed research report tonight, it is not a particularly difficult task for Uozuka Saburo. At most, it requires some effort.

When he followed his elder brother to "run business", he often had to meet with more than a dozen or even dozens of trading partners in a week. He had to investigate the background and current situation of each of them to avoid any uncontrolled problems in the transaction process.

Just by investigating a local horse girl school without any special requirements and doing whatever he wanted, he was able to gain an important relationship within the URA committee. For him, it was like making a lot of money for free, right?

Saikouni Hi Iron Duck!

Uozuka Saburo was so excited that he wanted to stick his fingers into his temples, so he subconsciously took out a cigarette and lit it, but he subconsciously noticed that his behavior seemed inappropriate - although it was not the central place, this was also Tresen Academy, a place with a lot of underage girls, right?

Feeling some vaguely curious eyes falling on him, Uozuka Saburo sighed deeply and could only say to himself, "This is for the purpose of establishing my character and for the organization's mission," while reluctantly putting the half-opened cigarette box back in his pocket.

"Hey uncle, don't smoke on campus. You'll get into trouble."

"Ok?"

Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice came from the side, making Uozuka Saburo think that he had misheard for a moment. He was stunned for about a second before turning to look at the other party:

She has an oval face, slanted eyes, a fashionable red curly ponytail, and a thin brown sweater hanging over her white school uniform.

A tall, hot-girl-looking horse girl was playing with her phone in one hand, with the other hand folded over her arm, and she said lazily to Uozuka Saburo:

"I say, you're new here, right? How can you be a teacher if you don't even know the school's no-smoking rule?"

Without taking her eyes off her phone, the hot girl pointed to the no-smoking sign next to her. She then added, "If you want to smoke, there's a smoking area at the back door of the cafeteria reserved for faculty and staff. Don't do something as horrible as that in front of the administration building... You'll get a serious warning."

"Oh, what? A demerit?" Uozuka Saburo raised an eyebrow. "It was just a cigarette, and I didn't blow it at anyone. How did it rise to the level of a demerit?"

"You ask me, who should I ask?"

The hot girl, Ma Niang, glanced at him impatiently, then turned back and raised her chin cryptically and said, "If you want to complain, go to the acting chairman who made these rules. We poor students don't know anything."

Hmm... although these words seem quite deliberate, the emotions revealed when saying them... seem to be sincere?

Rubbing the short, hard, needle-like beard on his chin, Uozuka Saburo looked up and down at the horse girl who had deliberately come to him, thought for a moment and said, "Thank you for reminding me, classmate. May I know your name? I'll repay you later."

Chapter 208: What do you mean by Trele!?

"......oh?"

The hot girl Ma Niang's ears twitched, she turned off her phone, turned her eyes and teased, "Tell me, how do you repay me, Master?"

"Hmm... I heard there's a dining voucher here specifically for faculty and staff, with higher-end dishes. I'll give you the right to use it for half a year!"

Uozuka Saburo said confidently.

"..."

"Eh? Eh hey hey! Don't go, classmate? Classmate!"

He had never expected that the Ogurashi's trick that always worked had lost its effect on this horse girl. Uozuka Saburo hurriedly followed her and tried his best to keep her.

"You think half a year's worth of dining vouchers isn't enough? How about a year's worth? Two years? Until graduation!?"

“…” Tap tap tap.

"I also know some famous trainers. Their training plans are very impressive. Would you like me to get a few for your reference?"

“…” Tap tap tap.

"Oh yeah! I also have autographed photos of you... oh no, our famous celebrity from here, Oguruma? I can even introduce you to him!"

Tap tap...stop.

"what!"

The other party suddenly stopped, and Uozuka Saburo, who had increased his speed a little, almost bumped into her from behind. His burly body hurriedly dodged to the side, just in time to see two excited blushes on the other party's face.
