Kurosawa Maki, who used to be "a bit neurotic," is now a little scared. Kitahara-sensei's resignation and her sisters' quarrel have caught her off guard.
"Miya, let go," Kuno Tachibana said softly.
Miya Nagasawa bit her lower lip and let go of her hand unhappily.
Kami Takahashi was still lying motionless in the pit, only her head and mouth were moving:
"I don't think there's any need to be angry. But it's true that it's a little upsetting for a good friend to keep something from you. But both Kuno-senpai and Nagasawa-senpai have very pure feelings, so there's no need for us to argue."
For a year, the girls remained silent. In their hearts, Kitahara-sensei's departure was one thing, but the mutual concealment among the sisters was another.
Kana Eto swallowed hard, forcing a dry laugh:
"It's really amazing, though. In my eyes, Kuno-senpai was the one acting on impulse, but actually, it was Nagasawa-senpai."
"The one who's overly serious is Kuno-senpai; it seems I don't really understand you guys."
Miyabi Nagasawa raised an eyebrow sharply, her gaze unconsciously falling on Mai Kirishima's face, who was staring blankly at the ceiling.
"Does Zhenyi know about this too?"
Seeing that the topic had shifted to her, and perhaps realizing that hiding anything at this point would only create more problems, Kirishima Mai spoke without any attempt to conceal anything:
"Yes, I know."
She paused for a moment, then made an excuse for Kuno Tachibana to continue:
"It's best to talk to someone about this kind of thing."
Nagasawa Miya crossed her arms and snorted softly, saying, "Yes, it would be even better if the two of you were more compatible."
As a result of this remark, Kuno Tachibana chuckled softly:
"Why is Meiya jealous here?"
"Huh?" Nagasawa Miyako's mouth dropped open. "Jealous? Me?"
Kurosawa Maki whispered from the side, "It's like a girls' team-building event where everyone else is invited, but you're the only one missing."
“You didn’t lose out either, Ma Gui!” Nagasawa Miya glared back fiercely.
唔:
Kurosawa Maki immediately put on a bitter face. She knew that Miya was furious right now, and pretending to be crazy would only make her scold her even more fiercely.
Even Goto Yu didn't say anything, he just looked around.
Kana Eto walked over barefoot, sat down next to the group, and said:
"The reason I'm explaining Kitahara-sensei's departure to everyone is to discuss what we should do next. What are your opinions?"
Nagasawa Miyabi raised her eyebrows and said in a low voice:
"Opinions? What opinions could there be? Just like the sun will set, what else do you want to stop?"
“呢
"
Kana Eto noticed that she had stopped using the respectful title of "senior," probably because she was genuinely angry with Tachibana.
"So I'd like to ask if anyone has any ideas on how to persuade Kitahara-sensei to stay?"
"The body," Takahashi Kami suddenly said.
Kana Eto squinted her eyes in frustration: "This is absolutely not going to work."
Kami Takahashi twisted her neck and said:
"Although they can't compare to the senior students of the third year, I've observed them for a long time, and the first and second year students are also delicious and have many advantages."
"Really? What about me? What about me!" Kurosawa Maki asked excitedly.
I really like the surname Kurosawa!
What does Li Hua think?
Kana Eto has started ignoring her best friend. When she looked at Tachibana Kuno, she felt an unusual heat rising in her body, probably because she had previously said, "I would rather lie to you than lie to Kitahara-sensei."
Kuno Tachibana moistened his throat with his saliva, feeling the discomfort of his palms being covered in gritty material.
"I don't have any specific ideas. We'll just follow Kitahara-sensei's wishes. All Eto-senpai can do is ensure the smooth operation of the club."
"Really?"
"Otherwise what? Do you think Mr. Kitahara told you this hoping you would rally all the club members to beg him to stay in the music room?"
Well
Kana Eto lowered her eyelids slightly. If it were just about satisfying Kitahara-sensei's "dependency," it would be a blessing for everyone.
Having spent so much time with Kitahara-sensei, I know very well that he is not the kind of person who covets a girl's dependence on him.
"Isn't that enough?"
At this moment, Kami Takahashi suddenly smiled and said, "A gentle person like Kitahara-sensei, if everyone cries together and begs him to stay, he might reconsider. Using emotions to morally blackmail someone like him is the most effective way to do it."
Her words immediately silenced the sand bath.
Kana Eto's pupils trembled slightly, one hand clutching a handful of sand, the words echoing in her ears sending a chill down her spine. `Laura's Novel` ¢Fastest Updates/
Kami is absolutely right. If dozens of people were to morally blackmail Kitahara-sensei, there would indeed be a glimmer of hope.
"Don't say such stupid things."
Kuno Tachibana was the first to state his opinion,
“I would never do that. It would be good enough if he could come back to visit every year.”
Kurosawa Maki leaned forward towards Kuno Tachibana, asking in confusion:
"It's like a husband who works away from home, gets tired, and comes home to play with his delicate young bride?"
Kuno Tachibana blinked, a playful smile on his face, and said, "That's a really good way of putting it."
"But Tachibana, why does Saito-senpai know about this?" Eto Kana asked.
"I don't know." Kuno Tachibana shook his head.
Kami Takahashi sat up directly from the sandpit and said with great interest, "Speaking of Saito-senpai, there have been some rumors circulating at school these past few months."
"Rumors? What?" Kana Eto asked.
"Her relationship with Kitahara-sensei."
"ah
Kana Eto raised her hand and pinched the bridge of her nose, puzzled, and said, "Don't spread rumors about this kind of thing. The rumors that Senpai Isogen made last time were enough to make people angry."
"But there's a reason and evidence to support that."
Kami Takahashi said with a smile,
"Isn't everyone saying that Saito-senpai's family seems to have gone bankrupt? And now she's living near Kitahara-sensei's house, which Akamatsu-senpai has also acknowledged."

“Since it was confirmed by Akamatsu-senpai, it must be very credible,” Kurosawa Maki said.
"Senior Rain Guardian also agrees."
“If it was confirmed by Senior Rain Guardian, then it must be very credible!” Kurosawa Maki said.
Kana Eto said, "But that doesn't prove anything."
Kami Takahashi raised a finger and shook it, saying:
"How could it not prove something? You can't hide the look in someone's eyes when you like them. It's like when you're in class, you unconsciously peek at them. The most typical example is when the teacher tells a funny story, you'll subconsciously look at them while you're laughing."
"so?"
“Saito-senpai fits this attitude perfectly, and Kitahara-sensei is also strange. Isn’t the staff office in the third-year corridor? The seniors often see him looking into Saito-senpai’s class.”
Kurosawa Maki raised her hand high; last time, when she took off her socks, Kitahara-sensei watched the whole thing.
"So what? We're watched all the time too."
“That’s different. Teachers should patrol the corridors for a year, so naturally they should be watching,” said Kami Takahashi.
Kana Eto smiled, but her expression seemed somewhat forced:
"But what does that prove? It's so far-fetched, all that talk about perspective, and it's completely off-topic, isn't it?"
"It's not off-topic; you'll understand in the end."
Kami Takahashi answered without permission, while Tachibana Kuno, standing to the side, showed a disgruntled expression, but she didn't notice.
"The way Saito-senpai looked at Kitahara-sensei was like a beautiful married woman looking at her husband—she was practically oozing pus! It was so disgusting!"
"Would that be?"
The metaphor felt a bit odd, and Kana Eto couldn't help but hunch her shoulders.
“It’s perfectly fine for close friends to share secrets, just like Kuno-senpai would tell Kirishima-senpai secrets,” Takahashi Kami said.
"This is ridiculous! I can't understand anything anymore!" Kana Eto simply spread her arms and bluntly said that she couldn't understand.
Misaki Nagasawa repeatedly pinched her chin and said:
"These are all unverified things, just rumors. Besides, the fact that many girls like Kitahara-sensei is a separate issue from what we need to discuss about what to do with the brass band next."
"Many things require speculation. Does that mean that police officers can only make inferences when evidence is presented?"
Kami Takahashi raised her finger and tapped her head, saying, "Just listen to me first. As for the solution, I will give you the answer, and I'm sure that once I say it, there's a high chance that Kitahara-sensei will stay and continue the tutorial."
The other girls all cast questioning glances.
Kami Takahashi sat on the sandpit, gently picking at her toenails with her fingers:
Do you guys know Kanzaki-senpai?
"Does anyone not know Kanzaki-senpai?" Kana Eto asked with an awkward laugh.
Even if the brass band wins 9A, the students at Shin-Wuk High School will still ask—
Who is the head of the brass band?
But Eri Kanzaki, with her absolute cuteness and oboe skills, is not only famous at Kanzaki High School, but almost every high school student in Hakodate knows her.
