Tetsufumi Hirakawa walked unhurriedly to the stage of the concert hall, and along the way, there was nothing in his ears except the sound of his footsteps.

Whether it was the two people who were facing each other or the onlookers, they all fell into complete silence because of his arrival.

The natural suppression of students given by his identity as a teacher made the students present feel good when they saw him. The center of their gaze also shifted from the two facing each other to him.

Until his footsteps stopped, and there was no other sound in the quiet concert hall, Tetsufumi Hirakawa stood in front of the two students.

He looked left and right at the two of them.

"What's going on?"

“……”

No one answered, but after waiting for a while, Shiori Shinohara looked at Tetsufumi Hirakawa and explained in a calm tone.

"I might want to ask this Umigi-senpai about this."

"Umiki-san?"

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked towards Ueki.

Under his eyes, Kamiki was like a small animal that had encountered a natural enemy, with a look of fear in his vigilance.

There is also a little bit of weakness.

“…… It's nothing. ”

This kind of identity suppression, like the upper layer of the food chain meets the lower level of the food chain, made the student shake his head against his will.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa glanced at the sheet music that had fallen to the ground.

Kamiki stiffened, bent down, and picked up the score.

Very few students can guarantee that their behavior will not be suppressed by "natural enemies" when facing the teacher, at least it is clear that this Umiki-san is not one of them.

From this, it can be seen how much of the character of Miss Shinohara, who can directly point out the mistakes of the teacher, to her face......

Tetsufumi Hirakawa glanced at Shiori Shinohara.

The girl in front of him blinked curiously at his sudden gaze, looking quite cute.

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa silently looked away and stopped the small interaction with Shiori Shinohara. Obviously, the identity of the teacher is not a deterrent for this eldest lady.

Okay, back to the point.

Although Umiki didn't admit it at this time, in fact, what was going on at the scene could be seen at a glance.

It's nothing more than that this classmate finally couldn't stand this kind of training and broke out, and had a quarrel with Shiori Shinohara.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa came for exactly that.

"Alright, Shinohara-san, Ueki-san, you guys go back to the queue first." He spoke suddenly.

"Okay."

“…… Be. ”

Two students walk back to the queue.

After that, Tetsufumi Hirakawa turned to face the Minister on duty and asked, "Minister, have all the students present here now?" ”

The minister standing on the side was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly responded: "It's already here." ”

"Okay." Tetsufumi Hirakawa nodded, then turned to the students, looked around for a week, looked at their gaze, and spoke.

"So, before Ogasa-sensei arrives and the practice officially begins, I'll solve some problems with you."

The flat tone echoed in this empty concert hall.

"Regard, the students are not satisfied with the fact that I am meddling in the affairs of the wind club as an instructor."

The tone was flat, but the content of the story was not bland, and the already serious atmosphere of the scene was sluggish.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa calmly watched the students present with surprised or puzzled expressions.

Probably this group of students didn't expect him to be so straightforward.

"First of all, I have to admit that last year I was a derelict teacher in my position as a wind instructor. I apologize for not fulfilling my responsibilities as an instructor. ”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa bowed very seriously.

The students immediately became agitated because of this action, and several small exclamations appeared in their ears.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa stood up and accepted the surprised gaze of the student without mind.

If you make a mistake, you must admit that dereliction of duty is dereliction of duty, and the resentment of some students now has a lot to do with his previous dereliction of duty.

"Why did it suddenly appear this year", there are definitely such doubts, he knows very well.

Then, after the students had quieted down again, Tetsufumi Hirakawa continued.

"At the same time, I also know that many students are very dissatisfied with my meddling this year, and of course I will accept rational doubts, but-"

Tetsufumi Hirakawa glanced at the students.

"What the teacher is doing so far has always been within the scope of the instructor's responsibilities, and has not exceeded, if there are still students who are not satisfied with this, they can put forward their opinions to the minister, and then the minister will communicate with me."

"If there is, it will be changed, and if there is none, it will be encouraged. I am willing to accept the supervision of all students. ”

“……”

The scene was quiet again.

"Okay, after the first thing, let's talk about the second thing."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa continued.

"Regarding the fact that some students think that the current practice arrangement is not reasonable."

“……”

In fact, this is the biggest problem in the wind club at present. I was not satisfied with his intervention, but in the final analysis, I was dissatisfied with his arrangement of practice time.

So, how to solve this matter?

Tetsufumi Hirakawa already had an idea.

Of course, the first question must be clarified - why are some students unhappy with the arrangement of exercises?

Tetsufumi Hirakawa believes that the problem lies in their goals.

These students, they have lost the goal of the national gold medal. Satisfied with the status quo of being able to enter the national competition, I have lost the idea of competing for the national gold medal, which requires hard practice and may not be able to win it yet.

It is precisely because of the loss of this purpose that they reject the practice. If he had firmly set his sights on the national gold medal, such as Shiori Shinohara, he would not have been dissatisfied with such an exercise.

However, Tetsufumi Hirakawa did not intend to blame them, after all, everyone has their own goals and pursuits, and the idea that they just want to treat wind music in a more relaxed way and treat it as a hobby is beyond reproach.

And yet......

Whether it's voluntary or a follow-the-trend, last night's vote by the students proved that, at least, the majority of the students in the Moriya Wind Club are aiming for the national competition.

For these students who have already entered the national competition, a considerable number of them will definitely have an idea of the gold award.

That's the national gold medal, the highest honor in the college wind department.

In contrast, those "second-class classmates" are only a small minority.

A small number means that they can only be a group whose interests are harmed under the democratic process.

It can only be.

If not...... There will be a problem before the wind club - Ogasa-sensei is because he cares too much about the voices of this part of the students, and the previous wind club will speed away in a more and more relaxed direction.

This is not normal – it is unfair to students who want to win a national gold award.

The democratic process has its legitimacy, at least, in this case, the obedience of the minority to the majority is not the truth, but it is definitely the most appropriate approach.

Having said all this, in fact, Tetsufumi Hirakawa's solution is very simple. The first step is to identify these "second groups".

How do you find out?

It's not okay to ask directly, and in front of the teacher, students are always good at hiding their opinions - just like Kamiki-san.

Most students will allow themselves to behave more positively and be more in line with "general expectations."

But they were only in front of the teacher, and where he couldn't hear them, the voices of the "second group" still reverberated in the bandroom.

This kind of dissatisfaction with the practice, this kind of negative emotion, will definitely affect the practice of normal students.

So, the first step, the most important thing, is to identify these second groups.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at the students in front of him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the goal of the Wind Band Club is the national gold medal, which has been confirmed for a long time."

"The teacher also knew that this was undoubtedly quite difficult, so it was only through harder practice that we could get the wind club to achieve its goal."

There was a slight pause in the words, and the system was quietly called out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you don't want to miss the national gold medal in the national competition, do you?"

“……”

On a May evening, inside the concert hall, Tetsufumi Hirakawa's calm voice echoes.

Some strange magic emanated from his body, entwining the 61 schoolgirls present.

The body is controlled, the mind is imprisoned.

Everything in the world became strange in their eyes.

At the same time, Tetsufumi Hirakawa knew, the second group, a total of 12 people.
