"Aoi-kun, it's about time you went to rest."

After finishing preparing her lesson, Yamazaki Kazuka saw that Uesugi Aoi was still online, so she immediately called and asked her to log off.

[Go to hell! You lecherous hypocrite, who do you think you are? I can play around with you for as long as I want.]

Although she really wanted to say it, Uesugi Aoi didn't have the courage to say it.

"Mr. Yamazaki, you promised to have a Street Fighter match with me, have you forgotten?"

From Uesugi Aoi's tone, Yamazaki Kazuka could tell that she was in a bad mood, and it seemed that something had happened.

"In that case, I'll play a few rounds with you."

Compared to the League, I'm more familiar with Street Fighter. Therefore, I no longer use my PE teacher's training watch and play as usual.

"Yamazaki-sensei, your skill with Shiranui is amazing!"

After several rounds, the two players had their share of wins and losses.

"Haha, this is my signature hero."

"Teacher, do you have a special skill called Chun-Li?"

How did you know?

"Because you're a pervert, teacher."

Realizing that she was about to die, Uesugi Aoi became somewhat outspoken.

"How could I be a pervert?"

"During class, you were clearly staring at Sakura's chest the whole time."

It seems we've been discovered.

"Sigh, the teacher doesn't want to see. Could you please remind Saki-chan to be careful about flashing?"

"Tch, you refined scoundrel. You can tell Saki Ryo yourself."

"Aoi-kun, you seem to be in a bad mood. What happened?"

Hearing this, Uesugi Aoi's heart tightened.

No, no.

Uesugi Aoi quickly denied it, but unfortunately, she wasn't a good liar. Her flustered tone immediately convinced Yamazaki Kazuka that something was amiss.

"Aoi, if you have any problems, talk to the teacher. Are you feeling uncomfortable because of your grandmother working as a maid at the Himeno family?"

Upon hearing this, Uesugi Aoi was completely stunned.

How did he know? Was I being too obvious?

"Yes or no? Tell the teacher."

"How did you know, teacher?"

She hated the Himeno family. She felt terrible watching her grandmother being bossed around and doing chores by the Himeno mother and daughter every day.

He knew very well that he had no connection with Himeno Saki and that he was not a guest at the Himeno residence.

"The teacher wasn't just looking at Sakura, she was looking at you too. I'm sorry, I should have asked you about this sooner."

Hearing this, Uesugi Aoi was deeply moved.

"Yes, Yamazaki-sensei, I feel very uncomfortable staying at the Himeno's house."

"If that's the case, I'll tell Mrs. Himeno as soon as possible. Don't worry, it won't be long."

"This is not something a tutor like you should be discussing, Mr. Yamazaki."

"If this affects your studies, then this is within my responsibility."

Yamazaki Kazukazu's tone was very firm.

"Thank you, Professor Yamazaki."

"Let's talk about anything else. I bet there's more than just this one thing."

"Mr. Yamazaki, I..."

Should I be honest with Professor Yamazaki? I told him from the beginning that I didn't want to come, and my parents wouldn't say anything.

But why did I make things so complicated, only to suffer the consequences of my own actions?

Why pretend to be an obedient daughter and come here?

Because I don't want to disappoint my parents, and I don't want to see the disappointment in their eyes.

At her brother's funeral, she vowed to make her parents happy in her brother's place.

"Aoi, what's wrong?"

Uesugi Aoi didn't respond for a long time, so Yamazaki Kazuka asked out of concern.

"Mr. Yamazaki, I did something unforgivable."

Uesugi Aoi couldn't hold back her tears, leaving Yamazaki Kazukaze at a loss.

"What exactly did you do?"

Yamazaki Kazukazu couldn't figure out what Uesugi Aoi could do.

"Sleeping pills, I gave you sleeping pills..."

"What did you do with the sleeping pills?"

"I used sleeping pills..."

Unconsciously, Uesugi Aoi reached into the pocket on her thigh, and her fingertips touched a few round, hard objects.

The next second, her body trembled as if she had been electrocuted.

Could it be that I...?

Uesugi Aoi quickly took the pills out of her pocket, and seeing the four crumbly sleeping pills, she was both amused and exasperated.

I was so nervous that I forgot to put the sleeping pills in the milk.

According to his original plan, after receiving the milk, he should crush the sleeping pills in his pocket and pour them into the milk.

However, due to being too nervous, I forgot this step.

At this moment, Uesugi Aoi really wanted to find a red nose to wear.

"Aoi, are you alright?"

"Teacher, after school today, I saw some small birds in the backyard of the Himeno family. Out of curiosity, I mixed sleeping pills into the cookies and fed them to them."

"As a result, they all died."

Uesugi Aoi's brain was working at high speed, and she managed to come up with an excuse to fob off Yamazaki Kazukazu.

"Is it because of this?"

"Teacher, I repent. I never expected things to turn out this way."

Uesugi Aoi's tone was a mix of crying and laughing.

So it turns out it was just a prank by a naughty kid? I never expected Uesugi Aoi to do something like this.

"Aoi, you didn't mean it. Don't do such pointless things next time. Did Saki Ryo make you do it?"

In Yamazaki Kazukazu's opinion, this was most likely something that Himeno Saki forced Uesugi Aoi to do.

"No, it was my own idea. I'm so sorry for doing such a terrible thing."

"Don't worry about it. And where did you get the sleeping pills?"

"I... I sometimes need to take sleeping pills to fall asleep. I'm so sorry, Professor Yamazaki. I'll go to sleep now."

Uesugi Aoi quickly hung up the phone, afraid that Yamazaki Kazukaze would ask something else.

"Does Aoi need sleeping pills to fall asleep?"

Yamazaki Kazuka felt something was off, and thought it might be better to ask Aunt Uesugi about it tomorrow.

"What? Aoi took the day off today?"

The next day, Yamazaki Kaze, who was visiting Himeno's house, learned of this news from Aunt Uesugi.

"Aoi had an upset stomach last night and couldn't sleep well, so I took her to the hospital."

Why does my stomach feel uncomfortable?

"The doctor said it was caused by her drinking iced milk. It was originally meant for Sakura-san, but yesterday she suddenly wanted hot milk, so they switched."

"My granddaughter is frail, unlike Ms. Saki who is healthy."

Aunt Uesugi looked worried; her granddaughter, like Himeno Natsuki, was a sickly beauty.

I've been sick all the time since I was a child.

"I'm sorry, Aunt Uesugi."

Himeno Saki bowed and apologized. Her tone was very sincere, and the expression on her face showed that she was very remorseful.

She was puzzled, wondering what had gotten into her yesterday, why she felt that Uesugi Aoi wanted to harm her.

Although Aoi Uesugi's appearance was very suspicious, she wouldn't go so far as to drug herself.

Not knowing the whole story, Himeno Saki was quite depressed.
