"I can almost guess it..."
Chabashira Sae folded a corner of the page she was browsing, then gently closed the book and put it aside, then raised her head and said lightly.
"But since you are going to ask someone a question, just ask it honestly and normally. This is the most basic etiquette."
"Ok."
Wu Yi took half a step back and put his elbow down.
"I just want to ask one question. Regarding the Paper Shuffle test, before Yukinoshita handed the test paper they prepared to you, teacher, there should have been someone else in our class who handed in the test paper. And they also asked you to pretend to accept the test paper but not process it if someone else submitted the test paper later. Who was that person?"
Chabashira Sae hesitated for a moment and said, "Let me answer your first question first. Someone did hand in the test paper."
"What about the second question?" Wu Yi raised his eyebrows.
"I can't say."
"can not say?"
"Ah."
Chabashirasae nodded slightly.
Ah, this...
Wu Yi found it a little unbelievable, so he asked another soul-searching question.
"It doesn't matter even if there are traitors in the class who can't be eliminated?"
"Of course it matters, but it's only for me personally."
Chabashira Sae picked up the coffee and took a sip.
"I don't believe you haven't realized yet. In this school, our teachers are at best playing a role similar to an NPC in a game. If you ask me for some information that is within our authority, I will try my best to provide it. But if you tell me something that is beyond our authority, you will face punishment from the school."
"For example, being fired?" Wu Yi asked curiously.
"Yes." Chabashira Sae nodded again, "But that's still considered light. If it's serious, you may be held legally responsible. In the game, it's like an NPC has a bug and is out of control, and then is directly deleted by the system."
"Yeah? That's so exaggerated."
"It's not an exaggeration at all, it's the truth."
Having said this, the female teacher suddenly paused.
"Oh, by the way, let me tell you one more thing. There are many teachers in this school who are like me. The reason why we have stayed on this artificial island for more than ten or twenty years, where we are almost tired of seeing every flower and every tree, is not because the salary here is so good, but simply because we want to make up for the regrets of our student days as teachers, even if it costs us most of our lives."
"To put it simply, you can't tell anyone even if you die?" Wu Yi understood.
"Correct."
Chabashirasae nodded.
"You can't tell me even if you kill me."
"All right……"
Wu Yi said that she had fully understood the other party's difficulties.
At this moment, Chabashi Sae suddenly smiled again.
"But I think if it's you, you should be able to find the class traitor even if you can't get any information from me."
"...Then you really have a lot of confidence in me, teacher."
Wu Yi curled his lips noncommittally. After confirming that he could not get any more information, he snapped his fingers and turned to walk towards the door.
"Then I'll take my leave first."
"Ah."
The female teacher watched until the figure completely disappeared outside the office door, then she withdrew her gaze, took a sip of coffee and continued to read the book.
On the other side, Wu Yi, who had just walked out of the office and closed the door, turned around and a pair of slender beautiful legs tightly wrapped in black over-the-knee stockings and covering the entire area of the short skirt above came into his sight.
...ah?
￥￥￥￥￥￥￥￥￥￥
To be honest, writing about teacher-student romance online is quite dangerous, but what if it is just a harsh social security? (Thinking)
Volume 258: Chapter You are allowed to call me by my name
Ayanokouji: I know you are anxious, but please don't be anxious. At least don't be so anxious as to change into women's clothes and come to ask me. I won't tell you anyway... Before I could say such stupid words, a cold voice sounded in my ears.
"It seems that things are not going well?"
"……what?"
Wu Yi looked up in surprise when he found that the voice was slightly different from what he expected.
Long straight black hair, a face that is 50% similar to the former student council president, and a tsundere expression that shows that he tried to draw a tiger but ended up drawing a cat instead.
Well, it turns out it was Horikita Suzune.
"Oh, it turns out it's you."
"What do you mean?"
Clearly sensing that the other party's attitude was a little strange, the black straight girl frowned in confusion, and slightly tightened her hands that were already clasped in front of her chest, and slightly raised the front armor that was no less in size than Kikyo Kushida's.
"No, no, no, nothing."
Wu Yi waved his hand to indicate that his words just now had no malicious intent.
"By the way, why are you here?"
“…I have a name.”
Horikita Suzune fixed her eyes on someone.
Uh……
Wu Yi only realized now that he seemed to have been subconsciously avoiding calling the other person "Horikita" since the beginning.
After all, if his name is Horikita Manabu, just call him Horikita. It would feel weird if you call Horikita Suzune or Horikita Suzune as well.
After a little thought, Wu Yi put forward an extremely constructive suggestion.
"Can I call you Kohorikita?"
"Take out the word 'small'."
"It would be very confusing if I removed it. The main thing is that I know your brother, and your brother is Ohrikita, so you must be Korikita..."
"No."
The girl refused to give in.
"Then just call Lingyin?"
"…It's rude to call someone by their first name."
"Horikita "
"Even worse."
After trying three or four different names and still failing to satisfy him, Wu Yi scratched his hair in despair.
"Forget it, let's get back to the topic, so you..."
"There's no other way. I'll just allow you to call me by my name."
Before he could finish his words, Horikita Suzune interrupted him with a cold face and a helpless sentence structure but a tone like a mechanical reading.
Sure enough, people always compromise.
Wu Yi reorganized her words: "So, why are you here, Lingyin?"
"……Any questions?"
Perhaps she was not used to being called by her name directly, Horikita Suzune subconsciously tightened her arms before responding.
"It's just a simple guess. Since you want to find the person who betrayed the class during Paper Shuffle, then the simplest and most direct method is to just ask Mr. Chabashira how many people submitted the test papers at that time and then select from them. However, it seems that you have failed."
"I don't want to admit it, but it's true."
Wu Yi put his hands back into his pockets and smiled with ease.
"It seems that the betrayer was quite smart and sealed Chabashira-sensei's mouth in advance. Of course, it is also possible that this method was thought of by Ryuuen for him."
"Ryuuen from Class D? I see. That's definitely his style."
Horikita Suzune said as she pinched her chin and began to think.
"If we follow this line of thought, as long as we can find out who in our class has had contact with him, it should be possible..."
"what?"
Wu Yi suddenly reacted and thought to himself, why are you acting as my advisor directly?
Horikita Suzune's voice suddenly stopped and she also looked up.
The two people's eyes met in the air.
After a while, Wu Yi took the lead to step back and made a gesture of invitation.
"Forget it, go on."
"Forget it..."
Unexpectedly, Horikita Suzune also chose to retreat.
She sighed softly.
"I didn't think it through. This really isn't a good place to have a conversation. Then let's meet at the Paret Café after school and we can talk about it in detail then. Is that ok?"
hiss--
Wu Yi took a deep breath in his heart and felt a little overwhelmed.
To be honest, he had intended to handle this matter single-handedly from the very beginning.
This may be quite difficult for others, but for Wu Yi, who holds a contract with Longyuan for 800,000 monthly offering points, it is nothing more than a bargaining transaction, which is easy and pleasant.
As a result, Horikita Suzune has now intervened on her own, making things that could have been done in a day... oh~ so troublesome.
Seeing that there was no response from Wu Yi for a long time, Horikita Suzune asked again.
"Is there any inconvenience?"
Emmmmm, if I really want to say it, it's quite inconvenient, girl, but... forget it.
After thinking for a while again, Wu Yi slowly exhaled.
"Okay, see you after school, Paret."
"Ok, deal."
As if afraid that Wu Yi would go back on her word, Horikita Suzune confirmed it again before leaving.
……
It was evening, after school, at Pareto Café.
Probably because it was Monday, this popular coffee shop, which usually had packed booths on weekends, had surprisingly few people today, and it could even be said to be a little sparse.
When Wu Yi arrived after briefly explaining the situation to Kikyo Kushida and Karuizawa Megumi, there were probably only seven or eight booths in the cafe with students in them.
Horikita Suzune chose the seat closest to the inside, which was quite secluded, and sat there quietly.
To be honest, if Wu Yi didn't have good eyesight, if someone else came, they might not be able to find the person even if they knew that the other person had arrived earlier.
"Order whatever you want to drink."
After Wu Yi sat down at the seat opposite her, Horikita Suzune pushed the menu on the table forward.
This is actually a very common action, and to most people it is nothing special.
But with the cold face of the girl with long black hair and her tone as if everyone owed her five million, it seemed as if they were forced to treat the meal unwillingly after being bullied and threatened.
"You haven't ordered yet?" Wu Yi opened the menu and flipped through it.
"No."
Horikita Suzune refused decisively.
"Because I don't know when you'll arrive, I'll just wait for you to come and order together."
