I became a heart-stealing thief in Azure Files

Who would have thought... that this gentle girl, who has achieved remarkable success yet remains humble and modest, would have such an energy-saving mode in her daily life, where she "lacks energy without caffeine" and is unresponsive even when her cheek is poked.

"Although what I'm saying might be a bit too vague, I still have to say what needs to be said..."

"Frequently drinking energy drinks to stay awake, instead of paying attention to your own sleep schedule... is not a good habit."

【~???~】(Sunny)

"I can't quit caffeine anymore..."

Even with her cheek constantly being poked, Haru was still so sleepy that she kept yawning: "Sensei, so... is there any way for me to quit caffeine?"

Amamiya smiled.

Of course there is... and for him, it couldn't be simpler.

With "Life's Many Flavors" (Xia's Bond) and "Emotional Colors" (Maki's Bond) working together, Amamiya didn't poke Haru's cheek this time. Instead, she directly inserted her index finger into Haru's open mouth, which smelled a bit like an energy drink, as she yawned.

"Yes, there is. Would you like to try it, Qing?"

Almost as soon as the words were spoken, Qing felt a finger suddenly appear in her mouth.

"Uh-huh……"

Qing, caught off guard by the 'power saving mode', instinctively started sucking with her tongue.

“Sensei has you, Yang Yilingqi, Ba Si Ni, what can be done…”

She suddenly realized something was wrong, but her tongue continued to lick and lick without stopping immediately.

Qing's previously unfocused gaze suddenly became much clearer. She blinked repeatedly, her movements stiff and her expression slightly dazed.

For some reason, I feel like I'm being treated like a baby?

Strange... why does my body feel like it's been stimulated to its peak of excitement by an energy drink...?

Ah...Sensei's fingers... seem to have a strange, yet surprisingly appealing, "smell"?

Why do I have this feeling?

Qing was full of questions, but she couldn't stop the movements of her tongue.

The smell of Sensei fingers...

I want... more...

With a 'pop' sound, Amamiya pulled her index finger, which had been sucking harder and faster, out of Harumi's mouth, leaving a long, glistening thread.

"……what."

Qing belatedly exclaimed "Ah!" Her first feeling wasn't embarrassment at what she had just been doing, but rather a sense of loss as if "something delicious had suddenly disappeared."

She sat up abruptly, shifted her position on the sofa, and looked up at Amamiya with a subtly curious gaze.

"What exactly did Sensei do to me...?"

"It was just 'biting my hand,' but why do I feel so energetic..."

Amamiya took a clean silk handkerchief from her pocket, wiped away the drool stains Haru had left on her fingers, and smiled without saying a word.

The reason you feel so energetic is because I used "emotional colors" to color myself, and then conveyed these "emotional colors" to you through the "hundred flavors of life," including "new green" symbolizing "new life," "sky blue" symbolizing "spirit," and "crimson" symbolizing "abundance."

While the dependence on excessive caffeine demand itself was not alleviated, the near-withdrawal state was indeed significantly suppressed by the "emotional factors".

"Didn't Haru want to know what happened between me and Maki?"

Under Haru's slightly unnatural gaze, Amamiya put the handkerchief, which was stained with her saliva and was being stared at, back into her clothes, and then deliberately wagged her finger at Haru: "Haru can think that... the reason why my relationship with Maki 'advanced by leaps and bounds' is because something similar happened, right?"

Similar things...

Qing felt her brain buzz, instantly filled with a multitude of strange scenes.

"Sensei's single sentence gave me a feeling like my brain was popping up and my cerebellum was losing data..."

"But thanks to Sensei, I feel much better."

【~???~】(Sunny)

"It's just that her spirits have improved... Qing is now like... a 'battery' that has been frequently used with fast charging technology and has had its maximum capacity greatly depleted."

"We still need to reduce our caffeine intake..."

Looking around Beritas's rather cozy 'hacker' hideout, Amamiya noticed a coffee machine and a can of coffee beans placed next to it.

"Alright, I'll make Qing a cup of coffee."

Reducing Qing's dependence on caffeine is not simply a matter of the 'placebo effect' plus verbal persuasion.

This is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

"Sensei really does...never miss an opportunity to be 'good to us'."

Amamiya stopped and turned to Haru with a smile: "Haru, and the requests from everyone in Beritas to help me post online announcements and search for information... have already helped me so much."

"Now, I'll help Xiaoqing."

Qingwei raised her eyelashes and immediately noticed the sudden change in the way Amamiya addressed her.

However, she didn't care. Instead, she maintained her leisurely posture, leaning back on the beanbag chair with her legs crossed, and silently stared at Amamiya with an expression of 're-understanding and re-cognizing'.

I sensed the gentle affection emanating from Qing...

[Coop is now unbanned!]

【Little Hook Qing (The High Priestess) ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

[★2 Bond Ability "Genius Hyperconcentration" is now unlocked!]

Before long, Qing tasted it. It was quite novel to her. For some reason, the energizing effect of coffee was far better than any energy drink.

As Qing sipped her steaming coffee, she seemed to feel a lingering aftertaste as if it came from another world.

Ok……

Sensei truly lives up to his reputation as the phantom thief who used to live in a coffee shop.

This coffee-brewing technique is far superior to that of the Beritas members themselves.

After drinking a warm cup of coffee, Qing could clearly feel her body's 'thirst' and weakness due to the lack of caffeine gradually subsiding.

'By now, Maki, who was taking a bath, and Tama, who went out to look for musical instruments, should both be back by now...'

'Oh, by the way... Xiaoyu went out this time to find musical instruments, which means... Sensei can also play musical instruments...'

"Want to sing?"

The phone on the coffee table beeped, and Qing picked it up immediately.

Upon seeing the message notification, Qing's eyes narrowed.

"An alarm from the self-monitoring system... signs of intrusion...?"

Chapter 77: The Most Bitter Episode for the Rabbit Squad

"Okay... We have completed the initial cracking of the location hacking and surveillance camera."

Amidst the patter of rain, Meng Hui abruptly stopped typing. Already drenched in sweat, she finally managed a slow sigh after concentrating for so long.

“We’ve already taken over the indoor surveillance cameras… Let me see what Sensei and those Beritas ‘hackers’ are up to…”

Rubbing her hands together, under the tense gaze of the Rabbit team members, Moe clicked the 'switch monitoring perspective' function on the temporary hacking program.

"Eh……"

On the screen, the gray-haired girl's slightly surprised exclamation came first: "Sensei, you can play musical instruments...?"

The blonde girl, wearing headphones and eagerly waiting, had no time to respond. She focused all her attention on the recording equipment in her hands and the small room that had been set up on the spot, which could record lossless audio and could be called a small recording studio.

"They really look professional..."

After washing up, the red-haired girl, with her long hair loose and a tuft of hair sticking up, sighed and shook her head.

"It feels like it was premeditated."

The blonde girl still didn't respond, but was nervously focused on adjusting the recording equipment.

Recording lossless audio from Sensei... how can that be considered premeditated?

Off-screen, Saki, Miyako, and Miyu, who were surrounding Moe, all looked somewhat confused.

It wasn't the "weird" scene I had imagined... Everything that was happening was normal.

But it is precisely because it is so normal that Saki and Miyako find it somewhat incomprehensible.

Because of being alone and being eaten by "Nine Cages of Lost 7 (Eight) Two b8J", the "victim" - Miyu - is right next to them at this moment.

With Miyu as a 'vivid example,' it will be difficult for Miyako and Saki to equate Sensei with "seriousness" in a short period of time.

"This is..." Saki raised an eyebrow, staring at the screen, "...is it recording?"

"Making such a big fuss..."

Miyako fiddled with a strand of hair, trying to guess: "It must be... recording some kind of... special sound."

Saki still didn't quite understand, tilting her head to glance at Miyako: "Even if it's recorded... so what? Sell it for money?"

Moe, who was in charge of operating the computer, chuckled "hehehe..." and temporarily windowed the monitoring system. Then she opened her browser and entered a set of keywords into the search box.

【Charley + Sensei + Sound】; 【Paid ASMR】.

Several webpage links were then loaded.

Saki's gaze swept quickly across the webpage, growing increasingly surprised.

"There are actually people selling Sensei's voice... and they even get a lot of clicks..."

"Besides paid content, a creator with the ID Jade shares extremely high-quality free audio almost every now and then..."

Moe switched the main screen back to the monitor, then turned back to Saki with a "see, that's how it is" look.

"What?! Students are paying to listen to others talk...?"

Saki was still a little surprised, but more than that, she didn't understand.

That 'despicable' adult... is he really that charming?

Ever since I met him, I've often been able to hear him talk, and I haven't noticed anything unusual...

Saki's 'complaint' did not cause any ripples.

She observed Miyako and Miyu separately and found that their first action was to take out their phones, quickly search for keywords, and then click to follow.

Saki: "......???"

What's going on? This feeling that only I can't understand the current situation...

Feeling awkward, Saki gently tapped the rabbit-ear helmet on her head, then hesitated whether to put on headphones and listen.

He had just taken out his phone when he heard Meng Hui hiss.

Shh~ Quiet, it's about to start over there.

The girls in the Rabbit team all held their breath, watching the activity coming from the computer's surveillance camera.

The rain was still falling outside the window, and Amamiya had already picked up the guitar that Xiaoyu had prepared for him and tuned it.

Standing in a small, transparent, soundproof booth temporarily set up with a lot of professional-grade recording equipment, Amamiya leaned close to the microphone and began the usual small talk before the 'sound'.

To enhance the atmosphere, Amamiya deliberately adopted a warm yet distant tone, like a radio host.

"Good evening... from Beritas, Ms. Maki Kozue, Ms. Haruka Kozue, and Ms. Tama Otoze."

"And...all the listeners here."

"This is a very 'empty, lonely, and cold' summer night. The sound of the torrential rain will make the world feel both humid and desolate. Therefore... on such a summer night, we also need the careful company of our loyal listeners."

"Let me keep you company and help you pass the time."

With just a simple 'preliminary greeting,' Amamiya can create an atmosphere of 'radio host on a rainy night.'

Separated by a transparent recording booth, Maki, Haru, and Tama, whose names were called, all felt as if an arrow had shot into their hearts.

An indescribable, tingling sensation, like an electric shock, shot from her ears straight to the top of her head, making Maki and Haru immediately understand Tama's hobby—
