Tetsufumi Hirakawa is in a good mood.

He stood in the night, out of reach of the hotel lights, and watched Shiori Shinohara's disappear behind the hotel door.

"If you want to discredit Mr. Hirakawa because of this, what qualifications do you have?"

After repeating this sentence in his mouth, a smile couldn't help but overflow from the corners of his mouth.

Who would have imagined that just over two months ago, this was a student who said to him, "If you have to interfere with my will, please find your next job in time."

What a change.

With emotion, he took a new step and walked into the hotel slowly.

Then I went up to the second floor and came to my room.

Stopped in front of the door for a few seconds, found the door card from his pocket, swiped it on the sensor, and with a "drip" sound, pushed the door open and walked in.

After entering the room, turn around and insert the door card into the card slot of the power supply, and the room immersed in darkness is suddenly illuminated by bright lights.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa closed the door casually, walked towards the bed, and then "plopped" his upper body and collapsed on the white bed.

Although I didn't do much, I was still tired after a day away. I missed home.

Sighing tiredly, he took out his phone and looked at it, it was already half past nine.

After reading the time, he left his phone next to him, and Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at the ceiling, and the white light came into view.

In my ears, the sound insulation is not very good, and the sound of students' footsteps back to the room can still be heard in the hallway.

There is also a little cicada chirping outside the window, I don't know when.

It's May, and the weather is getting hotter, and summer is not far away.

It's not far from the qualifiers for the Wind Tournament, it's only been two months.

Will the Moriya Wind Club be able to continue to qualify for the national competition?

Tetsufumi Hirakawa thought in a daze, his eyes gradually lost focus, and the bright lights became a blurry white in his eyes.

All the way to my ears, suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Tuk-tuk."

The knock on the door was so soft that it even made Tetsufumi Hirakawa wonder if it was the door of the next room.

But after listening carefully, he finally determined that it was indeed his door that was knocking.

My hands were weakly propping up on the soft bed, and I felt like I had exhausted all my strength to prop myself up.

After struggling to get up, Tetsufumi Hirakawa shouted "Here", then walked to the door and opened it.

The door was opened, and the petite figure gradually became complete in the field of vision.

"Ogasa-sensei?"

Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at his signature gold-rimmed glasses.

"Well, it's me, Hirakawa-sensei, good evening."

Suzuko Ogasa tilted her head and nodded.

The oversized frame immediately slid down because of this movement, so Ogasa-sensei raised his hand and lifted the lower edge of the glasses with his bent index finger.

"Hmm...... Good evening, what's wrong? ”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa took a step back.

Suzuko Ogasa walked in.

"There are some things I'd like to discuss with Mr. Hirakawa."

Ogasa-sensei said softly in her unique soft voice, and then casually "snapped" the door next to her.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa glanced at the closed door in a daze, and was about to say something, when Ogasa Suzukiko, who was beside him, had already bypassed him and walked into the room.

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa continued to froze for a moment, and then, in astonishment, followed the petite back of Ogasa Suzukiko until the female teacher sat down on his bed.

“……”

Right now...... It's already ten o'clock, right?

An approximate time came to mind, and Tetsufumi Hirakawa's eyes became strange.

He glanced at Ogasa Suzukiko, who was sitting on the bed.

The white blouse is a Moriya's teacher's uniform with neatly buttoned buttons, and the bottoms are a women's suit skirt.

The dress is very serious, and the sitting posture is very good, and there is nothing wrong with it.

"Mr. Hirakawa, what's wrong?"

Sensing his gaze, Ogasa Suzukiko looked down at herself with a puzzled expression, then tilted her head slightly to him and asked.

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa glanced back at the closed door again.

"Is it serious what Ogasa-sensei wants to discuss with me......?" The words were swallowed back after a round in the throat.

"Well, Ogasa-sensei, what do you want to discuss with me?"

Finally asked.

Behind him came Ogasa Suzukiko's answer.

"It's just the band club."

"......" Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who heard this answer, was in a daze.

"Okay."

After a final peace, he silently approached the door and opened the closed door.

Suzuko Ogasa stared curiously at the door that he had reopened.

Ogasa-sensei may have a natural tendency to stay stupid - after catching the female teacher's gaze, Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who turned around, thought to himself.

She's really defenseless.

I walked in at night, closed the door, and sat straight on the bed.

Originally, he himself was a little dazed because he was in a daze, and for a moment he thought it was ......

Cough.

Slightly embarrassed to avoid Ogasa-sensei's gaze, Tetsufumi Hirakawa leaned his back against the wall next to the door.

"Ogasa-sensei, please speak."

"Hmm...... Okay. After hesitating for a moment, retracting her gaze from the door, Suzuko Ogasa explained, "Actually, I wanted to ask Hirakawa-sensei in detail what happened to the wind club at night, and I don't know exactly what happened." ”

In the evening, Ogasa-sensei was busy instructing the students, so he didn't have time to find out what was going on.

But, 'I can say that kind of thing tomorrow morning.'"

Tetsufumi Hirakawa thought so in his heart, and after coming back to his senses, he still silently said his words to Shiori Shinohara again.

"Huh?"

Ogasa Suzukiko, who learned the details, looked a little uneasy on her face.

"Ogasa-sensei, what's wrong?"

"That'...... Did those students just quit the national competition? ”

"Hmm." Tetsufumi Hirakawa affirmed, "Those students themselves do not have the goal of 'winning the national gold medal', and if they are forced to accept more than the limit, they will not be satisfied." ”

"Is this so?" Ogasa Suzukiko lowered her head, her expression a little lost.

I pinned the hope of a national gold medal, but the students gave up on their own, probably they will indeed be disappointed.

"I can't help it, students also have their own goals, and the third grade also faces academic pressure."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa understands that he has never seen anything wrong with the students who have given up on the national competition.

"Actually, it's good to quit, so Ogasa-sensei can rest assured that he can guide the practice of Group A. At the very least, I will no longer be too concerned about the opinions of these students, so I have been relaxing the training requirements. ”

"This ...... All right. Ogasa Suzukiko hesitated for a long time, and finally barely recovered from her lost state.

"Teacher Hirakawa, are you sure it's those 12 classmates?" I just couldn't help but ask.

"Well, yes." Tetsufumi Hirakawa nodded with certainty.

This is the system's shot.

But the mouth still naturally began to talk nonsense.

"According to the psychological analysis, I am sure that this is the part of the students, they already have their own and other goals, and Ogasa-sensei doesn't have to worry too much about this, it's a good thing that students have their own goals."

"Well......" hesitated at first, and after thinking for a long time, the voice gradually moved towards affirmation.

Ogasa Suzukiko nodded vigorously.

"Hmm!"

Psychological analysis - this reason is actually believed.

“……”

"Then Mr. Hirakawa, I won't bother. Good night. ”

Finally accepting this result, Ogasa Suzukiko stood up.

"Well, good night."

Suzuko Ogasa walked out of his room.
