A day ago, in Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, inside a high-end apartment near Yushima Station on the Chiyoda Line,

Bana saw Aino lying on the bed, turning over and over, holding the mobile phone, typing and deleting the text, deleting and typing, hesitating for a long time, but still sending a message-

"Excuse me, teacher. That one. I want to choose A, but I don't have anyone I want to do (except for you), and I don't have a specific target for someone I hate."

The big teacher quickly replied to the message,

"Then I'll designate it, friend, how about the second-year vice student council president, Misakura Wisteria?"

When Bana saw the news, she sat up directly,

"(Crying face) Isn't it a little too difficult?"

The big teacher replied to the message at the speed of light,

"Then Fujiwara-chan."

Why is it more difficult? The big teacher is too strict!

Seeing that he fell headlong at the end of the bed again, he replied,

"(Laughing and crying) It's impossible."

"You see, if you leave the decision to someone else, you run the risk of being more than you can accept. You have to learn to take responsibility for yourself and make decisions for yourself."

Can you really make the right decision?

Hachinami lay on his back on the soft bed, stretched out his hand, and looked intently at the tattoo on his hand - three hovering birds,

"Teacher, but what if I choose the wrong one?"

"Just like you learn to speak and walk, without the courage to make mistakes, you don't have the right ability. Also, what kind of friends do you think are wrong?"

"The kind of person who is so outgoing that it makes people feel depressed... When I say something sad, they will say something worse for themselves, and when I say something happy, they will say something that makes them happier. What I want to express is always overwritten, and then I keep accepting their preferences and unfounded suggestions."

The big teacher's phone suddenly dialed, and Hachina sat up in surprise and answered the phone,

"You can talk more about your past dating experiences."

Hachimi hugged his legs, and the memories of black history were like mud rising from the bottom of the water.

She closed her eyes and spoke into the other end of the phone, confiding in her experience of several failed friendships.

"Thanks, you don't need Fanta, lemon tea does."

A girl's voice appeared on the other end of the big teacher.,Did you disturb the big teacher's date?

"Hachinami, it's the right choice to break away from that kind of communication. Their arguments are not friendly suggestions, but interference, control, and stifling.

Habermas, a philosopher of the Frankfurt School, mentioned in his theory of communicative rationality that there are three principles that people need to follow in their interactions, "truth, sincerity, and legitimacy". That is, don't associate with people who like to consume your time with exaggerated jokes and fun, otherwise it will consume your normal cognition; Don't associate with people who like to tell lies and are insincere (except for obvious tsundere), otherwise you will be stabbed in the back; Don't associate with people who communicate with you in the wrong way, or you won't be respected.

Therefore, observe more before making friends, associate with people who are upright, honest, and erudite, and do not associate with people who are convenient, gentle, and convenient. ”

Hachinami regrets a little that he didn't record.,The big teacher always says some names that he can't remember...

"Okay. That one... Choose a friend's time. Can the deadline be relaxed? ”

"Yes, it takes time to observe, just tell me the answer before the end of the sports festival. Nothing, I'll hang up first. ”

"Okay, thank you, big teacher."

Hachimi puts down his phone and wants to be a lonely powerhouse, do you have to learn to make friends first?

It's like a ridiculous thing like wanting to be a good student and becoming a bad student first, and I actually accepted it.

Probably, because he's a big teacher...

The great teacher always has his point.

Lying on the bed again, he raised his hand and continued to look at the bird tattoo on his wrist, and his family and school teachers did not say anything about his tattoo.

I remembered the bold expression at that time. The big teacher is really strict

Hachimi Aino suddenly remembered the gentle boy, his eyes darkened, and he picked up the puppy doll.

There was a knock at the door,

"Ayano! I'm going to go out! ”

"Okay, Mom, wait a minute."

The girl changed into suspenders, put on a bucket hat and a mask, turned around twice in front of the mirror, confirmed for a while, and pushed the door out with a crossbody bag.

…

…

…

"Didn't you say that you decided to observe for a while and then give me an answer?"

"Well, I felt the aura of loneliness from her... I feel like I've found it. ”

Asama looked at the photo taken on Hachimi's phone, the back of a skinny girl, and knocked on the table with the index finger of her right hand,

"Tell me why and why you want to be friends with her."

Immortal River raised his hand,

"Mr. Robert~ There is a problem! Aren't causes and justifications the same thing? ”

Tsukikai Futami, who had read Schopenhauer's "The World as Will and Appearance" in Shibuya, smiled and answered Asama's question about the immortal river,

"No, the two words are not to be used conflated. Schopenhauer argued in his doctoral dissertation "The Four Roots of the Law of Sufficient Reason" that the cause is the factor that causes the event to happen, and the reason is to explain the phenomenon of the event, so the cause is more objective and the reason is more subjective.

To give an example - a girl likes a guy, [the reason for liking] is that the girl thinks he is the only one in her life, of course, it can be changed for other reasons, because she can say 10,000 reasons to like him, and this is just for the sake of explaining.

And [the reason for liking] is that everything he does and every word he says for her will haunt her; His personality and his appearance can make her heart pound. She couldn't stop him from entering her dreams, and she couldn't control the fact that she was excited, and these facts directly led to her being unable to deny that she liked him. ”

Halfway through hearing this, Asama began to avoid the pair of eyes that were more dazzling than any twin stars in the universe, and could only nod his head.

Just as you can only ask her not to eat, you can't stop her from starving.

It can only be said that the private goods are hidden in the expression, and the second sight of the great god is already familiar with it.

Immortal Chuan gave the general's reaction after listening to Monk Yixiu's answer, nodded and hammered the palm of his right hand with his left hand, and said with a sudden understanding,

"Reason is a subjective explanation of a phenomenon; The reason is an objective statement of facts, right? Mr. Robert? ”

"Yes, for example, if we say that Riyo Immortal is an excellent student, the reason can be found in the grade ranking, teacher evaluation, and awards. But the reason why Immortal Chuan is excellent needs to be summarized from objective factors such as her intelligence, learning efficiency, and self-discipline.

Okay, do you know how to answer my question? ”

Suddenly, Yachimi, who was baptized by philosophy, smiled reluctantly,

"Understood. The reason why I want to be friends with her is that I think she needs a friend, and the success rate of two lonely people making friends may be greater, and I think her temperament is great, and the atmosphere between the two should be good in the future. The reason why I want to be friends with her... Objective factors... Uh, I don't know. ”

Asama nodded and said,

"I can't tell the reason, it's because you don't know her yet, you don't know the objective attributes of her suitability to be a friend, you are just moved by her lonely state. But whether a person is suitable to be a friend, whether she needs a friend or not, is not necessarily related to her lonely state. After all, loneliness is divided into self-determined loneliness and non-self-determined loneliness, and if it is the former, your contact may make her annoying. ”

Listening to Asama's words, Hachinami also felt a little embarrassed for his impulsive decision, and handed out a bulging envelope,

"I see, big teacher. Can you help me collect information about her? ”

"Yes."

Asama happily took the envelope this time and continued,

"But it's better to keep an eye on it, try to inquire, gather information, and two-way verification is a safer thing. At the very least, you have to know what her name is, what grade she is, and what class she is in. ”

"Okay, big teacher."

Looking at Hachina's fidget, he wanted to speak and stopped, Asama asked,

"Any questions?"

"Well, do you have many friends, big teacher?"

Asama remembered his few reliable sons and shook his head,

"It's not much."

"Isn't the big teacher trying to make more friends?"

"It doesn't matter how many friends you have, it's important that your social skills and quality aren't too casual. The purpose of making friends is to learn more about yourself through feedback from communicating with others. Nowadays, Japanese college students also have a [hitchhiker social culture], provided that they know themselves well enough to find a high-quality hitchhiker of the same kind. Just like when you get into a taxi, if you can't tell the driver where you're going, the driver will have a hard time. ”

Immortal Chuan interjected,

"Oh... Don't have friends, just take a partner, wouldn't this be too indifferent and utilitarian? ”

"It's a matter of balancing. Modern society is under great pressure, and many people are looking for a comfortable relationship with low responsibilities and low obligations, so that they are looking for more practical behavioral partners with each other, which undoubtedly turns people into tool people. There are two sentences mentioned in the Analects, one is "a gentleman is not a weapon", which refers to not being a tool, and the other is "meeting friends with texts, and helping people with friends", which refers to using knowledge as a threshold to make friends who can communicate, and to associate with these people to achieve one's own morality and the ability to love others. You can find the modern principles of dating in these two sentences. ”

Hachinomi bowed repeatedly and left the Romance Counseling Department.

She was still thinking about the voice of the girl next to her when the big teacher called yesterday, which was completely different from the voice of the two beautiful girls today.

Riyo Immortal Kawa is already a well-known Genki rock idol in the whole school, and it can only be said that he deserves to be a great teacher!

"I have few friends, but do I have a lot of harems?"

Hachina muttered to Ayano.

1:05 p.m.

Asama took a look at the time, the short lunch break was coming to an end, and it was time to go back to the classroom.

The three of them walked out of the love counseling department, and they were still in a formation of one front and two back.

"Robert-kun."

Immortal Chuan spoke from behind him.

"What's wrong, Immortal Chuan-san?"

"We're friends, aren't we?"

"Hmm."

Asama nodded of course.

"So, is it a bad friend, or a good mentor?"

"It's a friend."

"What a cunning statement that."

"It is said that there are three slopes in life, uphill, downhill, and unexpected. My friend didn't go up and down, only didn't expect it. ”

Immortal Kawa and Futami reluctantly accepted Asama's speech.

"So, give me a lot of advice~~~"

Immortal Oriyo ran to 20 meters in front of Asama and Futami with the posture of a Japanese drama run, and waved to the two of them with a smile that could change the world.

"Xiaoyue~Robert-kun, my life will always go uphill with all my might, don't fall behind"

Asama and Futsumi looked at each other and smiled, it doesn't look bad to have such a friend who loves to laugh.

Looking at the second sight chasing the immortal river, the girls exude a sense of unbridled brightness.

Looking at a velvety light cirrus cloud in the sky, it was fading away from the clouds below.

Asama thought about it,

Don't have many friends, don't you?

How much? Not much either.

Lonely people, if they are just friends who are as light as water, it doesn't hurt to have a few more.

Afternoon classes, for most people, are very comfortable.

Mr. Sasaki's art class, and Mr. Matsudaira's health class.

Listening to the beautiful teacher's lecture, no matter what she says, it will be interesting.

The girls learn from the teacher's makeup and dress to learn the dress of the previous group, and the boys are simply to improve their aesthetics.

There is no ugly female teacher in Yinghe Academy, even if she may be without makeup, she can reach the level of Sakado AKB members through makeup or black technology.

But Asama has never been interested in looking at teachers, he only cares about the level of content they teach.

Today's art class is a theory class in a large classroom.

Classes B and C got together again.

Most of the people in Class C still have the habit of saluting the Queen of the Guards.

Asama already knows a lot of people in Class C - Ichiro Oshima, who plays as a striker in the football club and introduced a large number of customers to Asama, Shunsuke Zhou Fang of the Modern Dance Club, and Fujino Kitahara (Oshima's girlfriend), Yuna Kato (Zhoufang's girlfriend), and Anan Maeda (Daisuke Miwa's target) who he knows each other and the other party doesn't know him.

These people all took the initiative to greet the guard, but the guard seemed to be more concerned about what Wei Gongbai reported to her, and only relied on the negligible nod to respond to the enthusiasm of the class C classmates.

The regret of the queen's departure from Class A was all transferred to the jealousy of Class C for everyone in Class A.

Luckily, there was Class B as a buffer, and they sat in the middle of the lecture hall.

Surrounded by girls, the president of Class B, Shosho Yanagiba, and Koichi Kamiyama, who is the main defender of Class B in the football club, all took the initiative to say hello to Asama.

Asama, who had always been accustomed to being a little transparent, felt uncomfortable, and responded to them with an embarrassed and uncomfortable smile, and Asama chose the leftmost position in the 6th row of the lecture hall.

The seat next to it was occupied by Futami, but Futami and Asama kept 2 seats apart.

This will not only make it impossible for others to get close to Asama, but will also not be told by Asama to get too close to him.

On the one hand, although the previous bad rumors were clarified by the current group of Class A headed by Fukasawa Xue, the parties did not make any response to this matter, and everyone still has doubts; On the other hand, the second view, who is making rapid progress in her studies, suddenly has a close relationship with the nerd Asama still water in the class, and there are rumors that others are forced to make up lessons for her through a loan relationship.

This leads to the girls in Class A, no one wants to come into contact with this cold and eccentric girl if there is no Majima, Fukazawa, or Immortal River as intermediaries.

The boys in Class A, on the other hand, were attracted by the larger ice cube Chiyo Konoe.

No one will find it strange whether the second sight is sitting next to Asama or sitting alone.

Sasaki cast a painting on the projection cloth, and today it seems to be a masterpiece appreciation class.

Today's protagonist is the work of the 17th-century Spanish painter Velázquez, which is as famous as the Mona Lisa and is known as one of the three most famous paintings in the world.

Although Asama has always been indifferent to the eight wonders of the world, several famous novels, and several famous paintings, "Gong'e" is indeed a wonderful work.

Sasaki gave a brief introduction to Velázquez's life and creative background on the podium, and then focused everyone's attention on the painting "Gong E".

Sasaki looked around the lecture hall and showed a smile, which made some of the boys stupid,

"So, Asama-san, how about you come and take a look at this painting for everyone?"

The classroom fell completely silent – a deafening silence that filled the space.

Nearly 100 spectators were waiting for the man named Asama Stasui to start the performance.

Once again, Asama felt the illusion of being pierced through his heart by a thousand arrows of gaze.

Thanks for the support. Thank you for your follow-up, monthly passes, recommended tickets, and comments. Thank you to the owners. I wish you all happiness.
