Let's do it again, Yukino.

In some ways, the two people do resemble each other.

However, after Yukino Yukinoshita was reborn, when she met the girl again with the Service Club, she felt that her initial thoughts were somewhat unnecessary.

"Cough...cough..."

Although Yukinoshita, the club president, really wanted to speak to Kawasaki-san in a normal and calm manner, she remembered something that had happened not long ago, and her fair face couldn't help but blush, and she started to stammer as she spoke.

“...I...cough...I am Yukino Yukinoshita, the president of this club...cough...Kawasaki-kun...cough...cough, Hikigaya-kun, you can speak.”

The words that had been brewing in her heart had long been forgotten by Yukino Yukinoshita. Every time she saw Kawasaki-kun, she felt as if she had returned to that noon when she spent time with that idiot on the rooftop.

"Um, Xiaoxue, are you not feeling well?"

The teacher and Yui Yuigahama, who were standing to the side, also looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with strange eyes.

It was obvious that Xiaoxue's behavior and actions today were very strange to the two of them, compared to usual.

Meanwhile, Kawasaki Saki, who was always cold and aloof in Yuigahama Yui's heart, was not as cold as usual at this moment. Facing Yukinoshita, who could hardly say a word, she seemed to recall everything she had noticed on the rooftop not long ago, and silently lowered her head, her face as red as an autumn apple.

It was only because she accepted the request from Kawasaki Taishi that Yuki temporarily suggested that Yui Yuigahama and Hachiman Hikigaya invite Saki Kawasaki to the Service Club.

However, even though the other person was sitting right in front of the club president, for some reason, the two girls, both with somewhat cold demeanors, lowered their faces again with remarkable tacit understanding the moment they looked at each other.

It doesn't seem like it was transformed from an ostrich, does it?

Besides, neither Yuki nor Kawasaki are the type of girls who are shy.

shouldn't

It was between Yuki and Kawasaki that something happened—

As if conjuring up a not-so-good scenario, Daiki Yuigahama was first overwhelmed with shock, and then for some reason lowered his head in disappointment, like an abandoned Chihuahua, his listless face almost pressed against his chest.

That's true. Since the start of her first year of high school, not a few boys have given Yukino Yukinoshita love letters or even confessed to her, but so far, she hasn't shown any particular interest in any of them.

Yui recalled what she witnessed on the tennis court that day.

The slight tear in Xiaoxue's eye is still deeply etched in her heart.

It must just be my imagination; Xiaoxue must have gotten sand in her eyes.

Tuanzi shook her head vigorously. This...

She preferred to believe that Xiaoxue had a strange feeling for this Kawasaki classmate.

Yes, that must be it.

Pure-colored lilies are in full bloom.

……

Yeah, right.

A certain teacher quietly stepped on a certain dumpling's indoor shoe, thus shattering the dumpling's mindless fantasy.

With his lifeless, dead fish eyes wide open, Hachiman looked at the two girls on either side, whose behavior was quite strange compared to their usual selves, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

In the club of emotions,

Apart from me, they were all problem girls.

……

…………

"Excuse me, I'll be leaving now."

From the moment he arrived at the office, the image of the president, Yukinoshita, being intimate with that delinquent boy that noon kept flashing through his mind. Finally, unable to suppress his shame, Kawasaki left his seat and ran towards the exit as if he were escaping.

Splash—

A hand appeared near the doorknob.

The next moment, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was walking in from outside, stopped Kawasaki Saki from entering again.

"Kawasaki-kun, please face the problem at hand. Although I don't mind you working part-time outside of school, don't you think your part-time job is starting to affect your studies and life?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka placed her hand on Kawasaki's shoulder and offered some earnest advice.

After all, she was the advisor of this club and also Kawasaki's Japanese language teacher. However, she was not only concerned with the students' academic performance.

However, although Ms. Hiratsuka's intentions were good, and her actions and words were not wrong, she did the right thing but encountered the wrong person.

After Hiratsuka Shizuka finished speaking, the Service Club, which had been somewhat quiet, was quiet again.

Kawasaki Saki, who was initially a little hesitant in front of Koyuki, slowly lost her composure when she saw Hiratsuka Shizuka blocking her way. She flung away the other's hand that was on her and let out a cold and sarcastic remark.

"Hiratsuka-sensei, instead of worrying about my future, you should think about your own future, such as getting married and having children, or finding a boyfriend. Hiratsuka-sensei, it seems that you still haven't found a boyfriend this year either."

Thump th ...

Having suffered a devastating blow to his spirit at the hands of Kawasaki Saki, Hiratsuka, who had always been strong and upright, suddenly became somewhat dejected, his body leaning back and his knees trembling.

The older female teacher knelt on the ground, her eyes seemingly moist at that moment.

Why! Why!

I only saw my beloved student and another beloved student showing off their affection over the weekend.

I had just digested that wave of PDA when these brats made me so angry I could barely speak! Why do they always have to bring this up every three sentences?!

Are it really that hard to find a teacher who is 30 and unmarried?!

Oh, is it so hard to see?

With tears streaming down her face, Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't help but weep inwardly.

Yukinoshita frowned slightly.

Yuihama couldn't help but mutter, "Poor Hiratsuka-sensei..." which was a fatal blow.

As for the teacher who was watching from afar, he turned his face away with some reluctance, his body trembling uncontrollably.

Hey, just send some random male to sleep with this poor teacher that even I, as a student, want to marry.

That's terrible...

Before Hiratsuka Shizuka could calm down, another figure entered from outside the service area.

A fool swaggered in, carrying an exam paper, yawning as he loudly addressed everyone on the opposite side.

"Um, Master, are you here? I just finished the first page of the 'Three-Year College Entrance Examination' set that you bought for me from abroad not long ago. It's a little difficult. Could you let me see the answer key first? — Huh? Master, Master, why are you kneeling?!"

(P.S.: There should be another update at midnight.)

Chapter Eighty: I saw nothing and heard nothing.

"Master, why are you kneeling?"

Kasuga, who had come after finding out that Hiratsuka-sensei was in the Service Club, saw Hiratsuka Shizuka kneeling in the clubhouse after opening the door. She quickly ran over and respectfully helped the emotionally traumatized Hiratsuka-sensei up from the ground.

"Could it be that Master got hurt again by Hachiman and the others using the fact that he's single? Let's just ignore him. You guys are fine. From now on, if anyone makes fun of my Master being single again, they're looking down on me, Kasuga Gian. So what if he's single? So what if he's over thirty and doesn't have a boyfriend? I've even seen a single woman who's almost forty go on a drunken rampage at her student's wedding! Seriously, next time anyone mentions that my Master is single and won't be able to get married, Hachiman, you'd better wash your neck clean."

“…Um, I apologize, I’m sorry, Hiratsuka-sensei.”

Hachiman Hikigaya was annoyed to hear Haruhi framing him out of thin air not far away. However, being wise, and knowing that he was the weakest fighter among everyone in the Service Club, he had no choice but to bow his head. The dead-fish-eyed boy lowered his head and obediently apologized to Shizuka Hiratsuka. Then, with a sorrowful expression, he turned his face to the window and stopped talking.

It should have absolutely nothing to do with me, or rather, I'm the only criminal who didn't participate in the persecution of Professor Hiratsuka.

Even Kasuga-kun was just unknowingly and mercilessly persecuting someone, wasn't he?

however,

Mr. Hiratsuka did not accept Haruhi's kindness. He increased the force in his hand and directly shook off his beloved student's helping hand.

"Shut up!! You're no better than Kasuga-kun!"

"Huh? Why are you blaming me again? I haven't done anything to upset you, Master, have I?"

Startled by his mentor's outburst, Haruhi scratched his head, tilting his head to look at Hiratsuka Shizuka, who had shaken off his hand and was now clearly hostile towards him, completely bewildered.

I've been keeping to myself lately. My mentor bought me a set of three-year college entrance exam simulation papers from abroad, and I haven't even finished the first one yet. Where would I find the time to cause trouble?

"If I say it's there, then it's there!"

Shizuka Hiratsuka glared resentfully at the boy in front of her who had been showering her with affection on Saturday and constantly feeding her dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection). At that moment, Shizuka was filled with bitterness.

Fortunately, she knew the impact this would have on the two little ones if it were publicized. Moreover, at the amusement park, in Hiratsuka Shizuka's view, the boy and girl's almost undisguised sweet smiles didn't seem to indicate any hidden or complicated secrets.

So she thought about it all night. Although she was very unhappy about the dog food between these two boys and girls with completely different personalities, the kind-hearted Hiratsuka Shizuka finally decided to keep the secret to herself. She didn't even plan to ask Kasuga about it in private. In short, she would just pretend that she didn't know anything.

For a moment, Ms. Hiratsuka forgot about Kawasaki Saki's matter. Too lazy to say anything more, she simply fled from the Service Club, this place of trouble.

……

Service Department

At this moment, only the three members of the Service Club remained, along with Kawasaki Saki and Kasuga Haru, who arrived at the club one after the other.

"Well, I have something to do, so please don't bother me anymore."

Upon seeing Haruhi enter, Saki Kawasaki felt incredibly awkward, like an ant on a hot pan. She immediately opened the door to the Service Club and went out as well.

"Then I'll be going now. To the members of the Service Department, and to the requests I made to you last time, they will always be valid."

Upon glancing at Kawasaki Saki, who had appeared in the Service Club, Kasuga recalled what Koyuki had told him about this aloof and delicate girl in his previous life.

With a quick glance, the boy subtly conveyed a simple look to Yukinoshita, who stood behind Hachiman and Yuigahama.

Leave Kawasaki-kun's matter to me...

He had no intention of staying in the club any longer; the boy said goodbye and left without looking back.

As they walked into the corridor, watching Kawasaki Saki about to disappear around the corner of the stairs, the boy quickened his pace and grabbed Kawasaki Saki, who was about to walk up the stairs.

Kawasaki was a little flustered when he saw Haruhi suddenly appear in front of him and took two steps back.

"Um, is this Kawasaki-kun? Don't be afraid. I just wanted to bother you for a little while. There's something I'd like to talk to you about. It'll only take a short time, is that alright?"

Springtime's voice was not as rude as before; it inquired in a soft, gentle tone.
