Hōsen, Are You Convinced Yet? Hōsen: This Is a Scam! (Continued)

Once the other person leaves, they are no longer her student.

Perhaps because she was the proctor today, Chabashira-sensei wasn't wearing high heels, but rather flat shoes.

At the same time, this teacher didn't seem to be wearing makeup as usual.

"Um, so are you on duty today?" Hachiman asked politely.

"More or less. To be precise, it's just that this area is under my jurisdiction."

After saying that, Chabashira continued sprinkling water with practiced ease. She really didn't feel embarrassed about doing this kind of work.

But she still explained why she was there, "People in the workforce are different from children; they're busy in every way, even during this time. By the way, what's wrong with you today? This is the first time I've seen you wandering around alone."

No, no, no, that statement is very problematic.

This was the first time I'd seen him alone; he spoke as if he were always with a large group of people.

He usually just goes out with Horikita, or occasionally with Karuizawa, or maybe with Kamuro to try some food.

And.

What do you mean by "kid"?

Hachiman didn't think that Chabashira-sensei was much older than them; you could say he was an older, older girl.

Sometimes I even wonder if Chabashira-sensei is hiding her age, or if she's really not Horikita sister or something.

It gave him a strong sense of déjà vu.

However, what we need to pay attention to now is that the Chabashira-sensei in front of us is a bit strange. The Chabashira-sensei is not usually this gentle.

He doesn't look like a teacher at all.

"What does Chabashira-sensei think about my skipping a grade?" Hachiman asked.

"What do you think..."

"I should say, congratulations on getting out of the mire."

Is that so?

You also feel a lot of pressure coming from Class D?

"However," Hachiman said, "I'm not going to Ichinose's or Sakayanagi's class. I'm going to Second Year Class D."

"So you really don't want to graduate from Class A?" Chabashira asked.

"As the teacher knows, even if you stay in Class A the whole time, you still can't graduate from Class A according to the rules."

"So, if you want to graduate with Class A, you need to prepare 20 million yen," Hachiman said.

Chabashira understood what he was saying.

Or rather, it was because of this Hachiman that she realized that, in fact, Class C and Class D were never qualified to climb up from the very beginning.

"Then you'll go to First-year Class D..."

"I've said it before, my life goal is to become a stay-at-home dad," Hachiman said. "So graduating from Class A is meaningless for me, because I will never work."

Is that so?

But if you were to reveal this goal, Hiratsuka-sensei would probably be very upset.

Because the student she valued was someone with no ambition.

The result is that he just wants to be a stay-at-home dad... and he doesn't regret it.

So you want a wife to work and support you, right?

Wait a moment.

Chabashira suddenly realized that Hiratsuka-sensei still single.

Hachiman Hikigaya's requirements seem to only restrict the other party from supporting him, without limiting the age of his partner.

So perhaps this is an opportunity for Hiratsuka-sensei?

Hiratsuka-sensei was once influenced by a teacher and became determined to become a teacher who educates and nurtures students in the future.

In other words, they are determined to go to work.

However, Hachiman Hikigaya was determined not to work.

So these two seem to be a good match.

Ha.

What strange thing is she thinking?

Chabashira quickly banished the strange thought from his mind.

"So."

"Actually, even if I hadn't run into you today, I would have found a chance to say a few words to you," Chabashira said. "Two points."

"Firstly," Chabashira said. "Actually, I was called over by the chairman when your class was promoted to Class A."

"Then he gave you a spot," Chabashira said. "If you're willing to stay at the university as a faculty member in the future, he can give you a special letter of introduction."

A specially approved letter of introduction?

This is the first time I've heard of Hachiman.

"As you know, I graduated from Advanced Nurturing High School, climbed up from Class D, and ultimately failed."

"But."

"The school did issue special letters of introduction to a small number of us," Chabashira said.

"However, this letter of introduction is only useful for our return to school."

"You can choose to stay at the university."

In other words, it's similar to an intern going to an internship, and then being able to stay in the local internship area when the internship is about to end.

Open a passage.

But this should be seen as an affirmation of Chabashira and the others.

Although the school definitely doesn't agree to Class D climbing up, being able to graduate from Class D to Class B is actually quite remarkable. They don't want to see such talent go unnoticed.

Therefore, the leading students among them were appointed.

Hachiman thought this was reasonable.

"I don't have any ideas for now," Hachiman said. "But let's talk about that after I graduate."

In other words, there was neither a complete rejection nor an acceptance.

After all, people change, and making boastful claims too early is an arrogant act.

And.

This school is a money-making opportunity.

That alone was enough to tempt Hachiman.

And Chabashira continued.

"Secondly, what are your thoughts on this year's freshmen?"

"What are you thinking?" Hachiman couldn't quite figure out her thoughts.

Because this year's freshmen are different from previous years, I've already met a few unique individuals.

At the same time, it also contained White Room student, but White Room student probably didn't know about Bai Chabashira.

"I have a friend's friend's younger sister who's starting school this year," Chabashira said. "This younger sister has some personality issues, so this friend's friend hopes she can get some guidance at Advanced Nurturing High School."

"Even if it's a setback, it's still beneficial for this younger sister."

Hachiman nodded in agreement.

Then the translation was done immediately. Chabashira doesn't have many friends, Hoshinomiya is one of them, but Hoshinomiya is too slutty, so Chabashira probably wouldn't describe her like that.

So, that means it was the younger sister of one of Hiratsuka-sensei's friends who enrolled.

And this younger sister also has a very twisted personality.

Twisted personality.

Could it be her?

If we're talking about troublesome people, Hachiman encountered one when he enrolled: Suzune Horikita.

And the current first-year students... if they're like Horikita, who's troublesome...

Hachiman seemed to have locked onto his target immediately.

Afterwards, Hachiman didn't sit idle either; instead, he helped the Chabashira by sprinkling water, treating it as a form of post-meal exercise to aid digestion.

He seemed to have spilled a lot of water and looked a bit tired, so the Chabashira were left to rot as well.

However, Chabashira-sensei never brought up this topic again afterward.

So even if Hachiman tried to get information out of Chabashira, he couldn't get it out of him.

However, they also learned that Chabashira-sensei was planning to leave Advanced Nurturing High School after teaching their class and then go out into the world.

This is when her stagnant time finally began to turn.

However, it is indeed a bit of a pity.

Because Hachiman vaguely felt that he still had some connection with this Advanced Nurturing High School.

While Hachiman water the flowers, another person was called to the chairman's office after the exam.

The person who was called over was Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.

Although more than half a month has passed since he caught Hōsen's fruit knife with his bare hands, his left hand is still wrapped in bandages.

Kiyotaka Ayanokoji did not intentionally remove the bandage.

So he went to see Tsukishiro directly with the bandages in his hands.

"You've arrived." Tsukishiro maintained her usual friendly demeanor. "But you look a little disheveled."

"You called me here for a reason, right? And why did you send another teacher to call me?"

"After all, I'm the Acting Chairman, I can't just go to your class and call you out," Tsukishiro said. "I called you here to congratulate you on passing this Special Exam."

"And have you found him yet? White Room student, who comes from the same facility as you and whose skill level is no less than yours," Tsukishiro said.

"..." Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.

Is my skill level no worse than his?

That means Hōsen could not possibly be White Room student.

But.

He also did not believe that Amaza was the White Room student that Tsukishiro was referring to.

He looked at Kiyotaka Ayanokoji and remained silent.

Tsukishiro continued, "It seems we haven't found it."

"So you've hidden it very well."

His pronunciation is different from hers.

Tsukishiro has now deliberately given a reminder.

However, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji remained expressionless.

"But I'm still a little surprised that you would use self-injury as a method," Tsukishiro said.

He noticed the bandage on Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's left hand.

"I still have a use for Hōsen," Kiyotaka Ayanokoji said.
