Although the look of surprise on Mr. Matsuzaki's face vanished in an instant, how could it escape Principal Yamamoto's sharp eyes? At that moment, Principal Yamamoto became even more certain of his suspicions.
Well, well, Matsuzaki! You'd clearly made a mistake, yet ever since entering the principal's office, you'd acted perfectly calm, spouting nonsense and waiting to be fired. I'd only just followed along with what you said, and this guy was already surprised!

Principal Yamamoto lamented inwardly, but said aloud, "Private Toyogasaki is a school with a free-spirited culture.
