In this crossover anime, Yoshikage Kira longs for a peaceful life.

Several students immediately showed gloating expressions. They had no connection with Yoshikage Kira, but that didn't stop them from kicking him when he was down.

Kira Yoshikage ignored the mocking gazes of the others and calmly looked at Kitagawa Kaimu beside him.

"Kitagawa-san, is there something you need?"

Kitagawa Kaimu flashed a bright and sweet smile:

"Kira-kun, we're organizing a class party, split the bill, tonight. Do you want to come?"

Yoshikage Kira resolutely refused:

"A party? Sorry, I have something to do and I probably won't be able to attend."

So-called student gatherings are a waste of money and a drain on one's youth.

He might be somewhat interested if you offer it for free, but he'd definitely rather decline if you suggest splitting the bill.

Since there's a shared responsibility (AA) arrangement, some students will definitely take advantage of this to order some particularly expensive items, resulting in expenses that are much higher than normal.

"Oh, I see."

Kitagawa Kaimu's smile faltered, seemingly disappointed yet unwilling to give up, and she wanted to speak again:

"Hey, Kira..."

The girl's words were abruptly cut off as Kira Yoshikage had already left the classroom, following the female teacher without looking back.

-----------------

"Tsk."

Inside the office, Hiratsuka sat in her swivel chair, legs crossed, and said irritably:

"Hey Kira Yoshikage, you've been secretly working a side job behind my back, haven't you?"

"If Aoyama hadn't come to me, I wouldn't have known about this."

While high school students in Japan are legally allowed to work, they must obtain permission from both their family and school. From the family, this means obtaining parental consent, and from the school, it means obtaining teacher consent.

However, teachers usually refuse students' requests to work. After all, if a student has an accident while working, the teacher will be responsible. In this situation, it's better to avoid trouble and simply refuse is the best option.

Kira Yoshikage's expression remained unchanged despite Hiratsuka Shizuka's sharp gaze:

"Strictly speaking, this is not a cover-up."

“I started working six months ago, and you have only been my homeroom teacher for two days.”

Hiratsuka Shizuka poured a cigarette out of the cigarette case:

"Even so, you still need my permission! Besides, as far as I know, you've already been fired, right? Without my certificate, no one would dare to hire you."

"There's no need for that; they won't think I'm a minor."

Hiratsuka Shizuka, who had just brought the cigarette to her lips, froze and took it away.

Just as Kira Yoshikage said, his height made it hard to believe he was a minor. Hiratsuka Shizuka was tall for a woman, but she was still a head shorter than Kira Yoshikage.

Even Hiratsuka Shizuka herself, despite knowing she was talking to a student in her office, subconsciously ignored the fact that Kira Yoshikage was just a student because of his height, and instinctively took out a cigarette.

Hiratsuka Shizuka held the cigarette in her hand and tapped it twice on the table as if to cover up her intentions, trying to change the subject:

"In short, I've understood your situation, and I will issue you the necessary documents. But!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka raised her voice and leaned forward as if to display the authority of a teacher, but due to the huge height difference, she did not look intimidating at all, but rather cute.

However, Hiratsuka Shizuka herself was completely unaware of this, and instead solemnly emphasized:

“Working hours must be strictly limited, not exceeding 28 hours per week.”

"I can't do it."

Kira Yoshikage refused her outright before she could finish speaking.

"Tsk."

Hiratsuka Shizuka leaned back, rubbing her temples with a slight headache. "Let me finish. In exchange, I'll help you find a job with a paycheck that's double the minimum wage!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka had read Kira Yoshikage's file and had some understanding of his family situation. Therefore, she was also well aware that Kira Yoshikage was not a born salaryman; working 54 hours a week was purely out of necessity.

Even setting aside the expensive tuition fees, the monthly living expenses alone are a considerable expense.

Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at Kira Yoshikage again:

"So? How about you consider it?"

Yoshikage Kira slowly spoke:

"The terms are very tempting..."

So you've agreed?

Hiratsuka Shizuka's brows relaxed, and then she heard Kira Yoshikage's next words:

"But I refuse!"

Snapped!

Hiratsuka Shizuka's forehead nearly creased with fury. She slammed her hand on the table, stood up, and raised her voice in annoyance:

"Don't be so stubborn, kid!"

Despite the enraged female teacher, Yoshikage Kira remained calm:

“If you’re trying to subsidize my job with your own money, DUCK, no need. I’ll find a job myself.”

The minimum hourly wage in Tokyo is 907 yen, so twice that would be 1814 yen.

Based on an 8-hour workday and 21.75 working days per month, that's 315,636 yen per month.

What does this salary mean?

In Japan, the starting salary for a recent college graduate is only 20 yen per month.

Those long-term employees who have worked for nearly ten years earn an average monthly salary of only about 38 yen, with an hourly wage of 2261 yen.

This is just the average; some may not even reach this level!

For an average student to find a job paying twice the minimum wage is simply a pipe dream.

In Tokyo, for example, the highest hourly wage among part-time jobs is that of a cram school instructor, but it only pays 1361 yen.

There is still a considerable gap compared to double the hourly wage.

Hiratsuka Shizuka sat down again, resting her hand on her forehead, her tone somewhat helpless:

"You little brat, don't you know what it means to play dumb?"

Despite her helplessness, Hiratsuka Shizuka still took a piece of paper from the documents on the table and handed it to Kira Yoshikage. It was a consent form that she had written long ago.

Hiratsuka sighed silently. What else could she do but disagree? Was she really going to watch Kira Yoshikage starve to death?

Kira Yoshikage accepted the 'consent form' with some surprise, his eyes filled with utmost sincerity:

"Thank you."

Although the only thing that attracted him to this teacher was her hands, her personality was truly suitable to be a wife.

Chapter 11 Even Small Things Are Cute

"Don't thank me yet!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't rush to let go of the 'consent form' in her hand. "No matter how much money you need, you can't work more than forty hours a week! In exchange, I'll help you apply for subsidies."

After a pause, Hiratsuka Shizuka gave a serious warning:

"If you don't agree, don't even think about taking this consent form from me!"

"it is good."

Yoshikage Kira hesitated for two seconds, then silently nodded:

"I think Ms. Hiratsuka will definitely become an excellent wife in the future."

Upon hearing these words, which were 'almost' a confession, Hiratsuka Shizuka's pretty face flushed red, and she feigned anger, saying:

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm your teacher!"

"I was serious."

Yoshikage Kira looked serious, his expression seemingly genuine.

Kira Yoshikage's gaze fell on the female teacher's clenched fist, a hint of infatuation flashing in his eyes.

Just like Shimazaki Yuna, Hiratsuka-sensei has a pair of hands that are like works of art. What's even more remarkable is that these hands also possess a mature charm that young girls could never have.

Although he doesn't smoke, the faint smoky scent mingled with the fragrance of his fingertips is a kind of enjoyment in itself.

Seeing the infatuation in Kira Yoshikage's eyes, Hiratsuka Shizuka's face flushed even redder. She assumed it was just a student teasing her and clenched her fists, gritting her teeth.

"Yoshikage Kira, get out of here!"

"it is good."

Kira Yoshikage nodded calmly, turned and left the office, as if the current situation was not his fault. He left behind the blushing female teacher, her expression shifting between shyness, annoyance, and worry, lost in thought.

"Kira-kun!"

At the school gate, Yoshikage Kira heard a girl's surprised voice from afar.

Looking towards the sound, he saw a bespectacled girl in a white dress standing not far away, waving at him.

Yoshikage Kira asked in confusion:

"You've been waiting for me here all this time?"

"Not long ago."

Shimazaki Yuna replied, but seeing Kira Yoshikage's expression, she still cautiously asked:

"Is Kira-kun going to participate in club activities?"

Kira Yoshikage looked at the girl's precarious expression, then at her meticulously cared-for hands, and his tone softened slightly:

"I'm not a member of any clubs. I was just called in for a talk with the teacher."

"A conversation?" Shimazaki Yuna was a little nervous, thinking that what happened last night had been discovered.

"It's about the part-time job." To avoid making Shimazaki Yuna too nervous, Kira Yoshikage gave a brief explanation.
