In an empty office.

On either side of the wooden table in the middle of the office are Tetsuya Ayakoji, a third-grade world history teacher named Mado Kirisu.

The two of them had been in this position for almost a minute.

On the table are two report cards of Kasumigaoka Shiha.

But no one paid attention to those two palmares.

There was an oppressive smell in the air.

Tetsuya Ayakoji looked ahead.

The cherry blossom-colored waist-length hair is not abrupt in this variety world, with flush bangs in front of the forehead, and the hair on both sides of the bangs is caged in a twisted shape and rests behind the ears.

Especially lethal is the pair of big eyes, the blue pupils have an unpredictable emotion like a blue ocean.

With an expressionless face, it's even more terrifying.

[A female teacher who is brewing anger]

“……”

Tetsu Ayakoji also had nothing to say.

It's more of an interrogation than a heart-to-heart talk.

When Tetsuya Ayakoji looked at Mr. Tetsuya Kirisu, Mado Kirisu was also silently looking at Tetsuya Ayakoji.

First of all, she had to admit that Tetsuya Ayakoji had a very peaceful aura on her body.

It is so peaceful that it seems to be a practitioner of quiet culture.

There is also the appearance of Tetsuya Ayakoji, which is indeed the one that can attract girls.

The serious Kirisu Madon is sure that if he were in the position of Kasumigaoka Shiba and Ichihara Maho, he would probably have a little affection for Ayakoji Tetsu.

But life shouldn't be so superficial.

The more difficult it is, the more we must be able to recognize ourselves and take the right path.

Don't waste your talent and take every opportunity that comes your way.

Kirisu Mado took a deep breath.

Because of some past experiences, she is even more convinced of this, she has to be responsible for her students, not to be swayed by students' feelings, and to guide students on the right path.

"Ayakoji-san." Mr. Kirisu spoke first, "Before discussing these two transcripts, I have a question, can you help me answer it?" ”

Tetsuya Ayakoji said, "Mr. Kirissu, please speak." ”

"Question."

Kirisu-sensei's tone was as cold as the rumor: "Why did Ayakoji-san decide to go on to the University of Tokyo?" According to the information I received from Mr. Oda Kiri, Ayakoji-san's final exam results last semester were only in the middle and lower reaches of the class. ”

"Mr. Kirisu is really a very serious person."

Ayakoji Tetsuya sighed with emotion.

He understands what Kirisu-sensei means, so he doesn't intend to resort to confrontational tactics, but tries to convince her.

"Because I believe that I can get into the University of Tokyo. Romain Rolland said that you believe in yourself first, and then others will believe in you. I believe in myself, so I'm moving towards my goal step by step. I think that when the next exam comes, the best way to confirm it is to use the results as a response to Mr. Kirisu's answers. ”

The ice on Kirisu Mato's face didn't dissipate, but Ayakoji Tetsu could feel that her perception of herself had changed.

At least from [brewing anger] to [gradually calming down], isn't it?

Kirisu-sensei nodded slightly, "Understand, as an educator, I know very well how difficult it is. Until the results of Ayakoji-san's efforts are revealed, I will not interfere too much with Ayakoji-san's decision. But ......"

Mr. Kirisu pushed the report card on the table forward, "Ayakoji-san, I guess I can see something from these two report cards." ”

Ayakoji Tetsuya should be: "Although Senior Sister Shiyu Kasumigaoka is still in the grade, her grades have actually declined. ”

"Correct."

Teacher Kirisu stared at Tetsuya Ayakoji: "This is the crux of the problem, and I haven't seen any improvement so far, if it continues like this, Kasumigaoka-san's grade will also be lost." This is not only the opportunity to secure a university that should have been early, but also the future of life. Ayakoji, who has set her goal for Todai, should understand this truth. ”

Tetsuya Ayakoji nodded.

"Although the cause of the incident has nothing to do with Ayakoji, but because of the appearance of Ayakoji, as well as some inappropriate speeches by Ayakoji, it has seriously affected Kasumigaoka's decision, and she seems to be preoccupied with writing novels now, and her attitude towards learning has become more slack." Mr. Kirisu has a bad eye.

Writing a novel can be done after you are admitted to university, and it is not an either/or project with study.

Because of this, Mr. Kirishu feels even more unwise.

"Talented people should use their talents correctly instead of pushing themselves into the fire pit. Ayakoji-san doesn't want to see Kasumigaoka-san become mediocre or even miserable in the future. ”

Tetsuya Ayakoji nodded silently.

But if the senior sister can be easily persuaded later, then she will not go to the dead end.

Tetsuya Ayakoji said, "Mr. Kirisu, maybe you think that Senpai has no talent in writing novels. But in fact, it is only because of some deviations that this situation has been caused. I'm not easy to explain, but there's no doubt that Senpai is talented. ”

"Ayakoji-san."

Mr. Kirisu looked at Tetsuya Ayakoji with dissatisfaction.

"I'm just stating a fact to the teacher. As for other aspects, such as persuading my senior sister to spend more energy on studying, I will also do my part. ”

Hearing Ayakoji Tetsu say the same, Mr. Kirissu's face softened a little.

"Actually, it's not all bad, because of the existence of Ayakoji, Ichihara Maho suddenly woke up, although it's a little late at this time, but it's also a good thing to be able to fight for his future."

Speaking of this, Ayakoji Tetsu also has a headache.

He has to be careful when he goes out now.

Mr. Kirisu stood up: "Then today's conversation will be over for the time being, Ayakoji-san may think that I am very strict and difficult to speak." ”

Tetsuya Ayakoji said, "I know that Kirissu-sensei is a good teacher, and even in the face of a student like me, I don't get angry. However, people are emotional, and often the so-called optimal solution is not necessarily what we really want, and happiness is not directly linked to the future. ”

“……”

Kirisu Mado didn't speak.

She looked at Tetsuya Ayakoji fixedly.

It's no wonder that Kasumigaoka-san-san treats him differently.

She was treated by her students as the most difficult teacher to talk to, and she also had a day when she was called a good teacher.

Kirisu Matoshi saw Ayakoji Tetsuya leave, her cheeks slightly hot, she hadn't heard such compliments for a long time.

……

After school.

"Go according to the plan, if it really doesn't work, Kato-san will expose me directly." Tetsuya Ayakoji said.

Megumi Kato held the book in her arms and nodded solemnly: "Ayakoji-kun, please rest assured." ”

"Please!"

Tetsuya Ayakoji watched Megumi Kato leave.

Under the blessing tree, Kasumigaoka Shiba was waiting there early.

When she saw the face of the girl who came by, her heartbeat suddenly slowed down by half a beat.

How could it be such a coincidence?

Kasumigaoka Shiha's brain turned into a pulp.
