Chapter 593

This school has a unique structure, and while teachers don't oppose dating, there's an agreement that they can't easily leave the school, and even annual leave must be taken according to the school's schedule.

Therefore, they are not free.

Therefore, when dating or marrying other people, separation may occur.

Many of the teachers are single.

However, if it's teachers working at the same school, or other staff members, or even people from the Shopping Street, then there's no problem.

Therefore.

Even though they are confined to this school, quite a few couples and families are still formed.

But.

Some teachers have remained single throughout their lives.

For example, there's the always stern-faced Sae Chabashira.

"Speaking of which," one of the teachers said, watching as Chabashira's figure disappeared from sight, "My friend really likes Chabashira."

"Your friend? Actually, I've been thinking the same thing. If she's still single next year, then I'll have to give it a try."

It's obvious.

Although Chabashira is aloof and cold, even somewhat unapproachable, the male teachers are quite tolerant of attractive female teachers.

"Then you guys probably don't have a chance." The person drinking alone was actually feeling relaxed now that the class was doing well, and wanted to show off, but when he actually arrived here, no one paid any attention to him. So, Kazuma Sakagami decided to drop a bombshell. "Because I saw that Chabashira submitted his resignation letter after finishing teaching this year's class."

Just like if you want to resign from a company, you have to give one or three months' notice.

Because of the special nature of the school, and because they are homeroom teachers who are responsible for each class for three years, if they want to resign, they have to submit a report a year in advance and then they must complete the full term of their assigned class.

That's why Chabashira resigned ahead of schedule.

But.

"Huh? Is that true?"

Sakagami-sensei was immediately surrounded by the other teachers. "Is this news reliable?"

There are 7 male teachers here.

So, are there six people wavering here now?

Even the teacher who said earlier, "My friend really likes Chabashira," looked over.

"..." Chie Hoshinomiya.

Sitting next to the Chabashira, Hoshinomiya-sensei, who looked like she was about to pass out from drinking, gently lifted her face.

His gaze swept over the faces of the male teachers who had just thought the Chabashira were quite nice.

She decided to memorize all the names of these idiots.

But.

If Chabashira leaves this school, what will become of me?

Hoshinomiya has an obsession with Chabashira.

Because she and Chabashira were actually friends, and even developed into best friends.

But.

In Special Exam where the entire class unanimously agreed on a crucial decision regarding the class's impending promotion to an A.

The exam required the whole class to decide on one student to drop out of school, and the student who dropped out was also designated—one of the top three students in each category.

If even one student in the class drops out, the class will receive 300 points in the evaluation.

At that time, their class was only 400 points behind Class A, so this exam was very important.

At that time, Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was the Class representative, volunteered to help everyone vote for her so that she could get the 300 points.

And everyone made a pact to vote.

But.

Chabashira opposed the actions of Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was the Class representative at the time, and consistently voted against it.

This caused the class to miss the opportunity to continue climbing the ranks.

Thinking about it carefully, Chabashira did that because he didn't want to just watch Hiratsuka-sensei drop out of school.

I cannot accept that everyone climbed up the ladder by sacrificing Hiratsuka-sensei.

But.

Those were all Hiratsuka-sensei's own choices. And after everyone graduates and has a bright future, wouldn't it be nice to give Hiratsuka-sensei some more money as a reward?

Therefore...

Making Chabashira is a huge mistake.

And.

Chabashira chose Hiratsuka-sensei, which also means he gave up on her.

Because she and Chabashira are classmates.

So if she can't advance in her class, then her Hoshinomiya will also have to fall to the bottom.

As well as.

Chabashira made that choice, which means that Chabashira preferred to choose Hiratsuka-sensei and gave her up.

Therefore...

If that Special Exam, which determined the fate of their class, hadn't been held in the first place, perhaps everyone would have a completely different future now.

Perhaps she will be different.

You can continue to treat Chabashira as a friend.

"So, are there no more exams coming up?"

"So, our ship is just for enjoying the time?"

"I asked the homeroom teacher, and he said yes!"

"Yeah!"

The students seemed to be in a good mood.

It has now been three days since the Treasure Hunt Game began.

At first, because of the promised extended holiday, there was a Special Exam. However, when we asked the homeroom teacher again, we learned that the holiday was purely vacation time on the ship, so almost every student was enjoying themselves to the fullest.

However.

Hachiman didn't have that much energy; he mostly stayed in his room.

While enjoying free yet expensive treatment together requires seizing the opportunity, Hachiman doesn't believe that a wealthy woman who can support him can allow him to enjoy such treatment frequently.

So while you have the chance, you should enjoy it to the fullest.

But he hasn't left the room for three days.

Because.

Hmm.

So, does that mean my future choice is limited to Ichika Amasawa?

Although he doesn't dislike girls younger than him.

But is it really appropriate to let such a young girl support him?

Hachiman thought it would be great if he could go home and have a life talk with his sister.

Thinking this way.

Feeling he had been staying in the room for too long, he left and went out onto the deck.

It was a cloudy day, but there weren't many students on the deck.

Hachiman leaned against the railing, gazing at the undulating sea ahead.

Suddenly.

I heard footsteps.

"Guess who I am~" a voice came from behind.

"Ah%..." Hachiman was startled.

"?"

"What's wrong?" the girl who had just spoken asked. "Am I that scary?"

Hachiman turned around and saw that it was Karuizawa, the third cutest girl in the whole school.

"I was thinking about something just now," Hachiman said.

"..." Karuizawa.

Is that so?

So, if it wasn't her, then who do you think it could be? Or who did you mistake her for?

"I heard from the girls that they chartered the indoor swimming pool on the ship and were playing in the water," Hachiman said.

"Then boys are prohibited from entering."

"You're not going... Oh, sorry," Hachiman said.

He recalled that Karuizawa's weakness was his past of being bullied, and then... he had once tried to fight back, but almost lost his life.

Her initial resistance left a scar on her abdomen.

This scar has become a psychological trauma for her, so she doesn't dare to show it to outsiders, and she's even more afraid of being asked how she got it.

Therefore, it's unlikely that she will change clothes with everyone in the locker room.

"That's all in the past," Karuizawa said. "I need to move on."

"So, you haven't shown up for three days. What happened to you?" Karuizawa asked.

"Yes." Hachiman nodded. "I think I'm being pursued by Ichika Amasawa with fervor, and the thought of it makes me so embarrassed. Before, I always thought maybe I was just being overly emotional, but this time, I think it's okay even if I'm being overly emotional."

"..."

Hey!

Karuizawa discovered that every time she met this person alone, it was to talk about his personal affairs.

And it's Ichika Amasawa again.

Is this junior student really that good?

"Didn't I already give you the solution?" Hui thought that perhaps it was time to bring up the solution again.

"If you're worried about losing your sovereignty, then why not just propose another agreement to deal with Ichika Amasawa?" Karuizawa said.

"But her actions are frightening," Hachiman said. "After the Treasure Hunt Game exam, she transferred 5 million points to me, saying she would support me. It was really tempting."

"..."benefit.

So you, Ichika, are really reliable.

Hui didn't believe she could earn him 5 million all at once.

It's outrageous! Is this the difference between an ordinary person and a genius?

"Um... this student."

"Could I borrow Hachiman for now?"

However, at this moment, a middle-aged man in a white suit with a smile on his face walked towards them.

Karuizawa then discovered that she had been approached by a man.

"Acting Chairman!"

Karuizawa was startled.
