Chapter 1651  Reporting in (2)

“Who says I need a massage? Brat, are you becoming audacious with me?” Hayashi-sensei snarled back her eyes glaring at me from below.

She lifted her head just as slightly, giving me quite a view of her face and the crevice below.

She’s unaware of that and with how I could control my expression, I might need to voice it out to make her realize that she opened a window for me.

Despite calling me out like that, she did nothing to stop me from massaging her. In fact, even if it’s not noticeable at first, relief gradually washed over her expression as my thumbs did their job, circling on a pressure point.

“You’re right, sensei. This might be me being audacious. However, can’t I provide you relief? I’m already here anyway.”

“Manners, Onoda-kun. You can’t suddenly do this when you aren’t asked for.”

“I see... Then sensei, I’ll keep that in mind next time.”

I trailed my voice at first, sounding like I was going to stop. As a result, Hayashi-sensei who thought it was over relaxed herself only to be met by my skillful hands’ continued assault.

This time, I also slid it down to her shoulders, relieving the stiffness she unknowingly accumulated there. With the subdued sound of her bones seemingly cracking into place, the woman involuntarily issued a relieved moan.

Upon realizing what she had done, Hayashi-sensei immediately stood up and distanced herself from me. Her face gradually turned pink from embarrassment but to keep up with her stature, she acted unbothered by trying to scold me.

“That’s enough, brat! Ugh. Sit down and finish with your reporting. I have no time to waste with you.”

“Alright, sensei. I apologize for making you feel uncomfortable. I smilingly shook my head and raised my arms in surrender.

Hayashi-sensei bit her lips before averting her gaze. She knew that she was being unreasonable for lashing out at me but at the same time, she couldn’t let herself be dragged to my rhythm. In her head, she’s the one with authority here, not me so... she had to keep up appearances.

“Stop mentioning that already. You did well but... You’re not here to provide me relief. Remember to stick to what you’re supposed to do.”

“Oh... I see. I understand. Well then sensei. Should I start my report like this or...?”

Even without finishing my words, she understood what I meant there. And so, while looking a little indignant, Hayashi-sensei calmed herself down, and fixed her glasses before walking back to sit across from me.

She maintained a poker face with her eyes intently focused on me.

Yeah. She still had it in her to not act all flustered from something she hadn’t prepared for. But then again, she’s probably not that averse to how I act around her. Otherwise, she would’ve already kicked me out of the room for putting my hands on her.

I could say that part of it was still because of my father’s influence on her. It would take a while before she could completely separate me from him and look at me as a different person.

Well, not that I was trying to establish myself in her eyes. Nonetheless, as the one with the highest authority in this school, I had to keep being in her good graces. It would help not just me but also everyone connected to me.

“Alright brat. Start from after you left this room yesterday.”

“Uhm... Sensei, forgive me for asking but... what exactly should I report to you? Is it everything I did yesterday or... what I observed in school?”

I already know the answer to that but to at least smoothen out the mood in the room, I had to bring that up.

Hayashi-sensei narrowed her eyes slightly. “Both. Don’t leave out any details. I have to make sure that you’re not problematic. You might have had a reason to handle it that way yesterday but I have no idea if you’ll keep using violence to solve a problem. I’ll be judging you based on these reports you’re going to make. I know it will be easy for you to lie with it but I believe you understand that it’s also my way to determine your trustworthiness.”

Ah. Of course, I understand that this is all just a test for her. Since she couldn’t really punish me for yesterday, she came up with this to keep me in check and at the same time, find out more about me.

In a way, I could connect this to my father’s advice to her when she called him to ask about me...

“Alright. But sensei, I will not be able to perfectly accomplish the ‘don’t leave out any details’. Can I omit my private moments with my girls? Only that will be left out.”

“Go ahead. I also don’t want to hear your method about how you fooled all of them to be with you.”

“That’s harsh, sensei. I’m at least very transparent to them. Just like what I’m going to do here, they’re aware of everything I do.”

“Heh. I’m impressed they haven’t gone for your throat yet. Especially that child, Shizu. I never thought she’s the type to fall in love with someone and of all people, it has to be you.”

Honestly, I’m also impressed by that. Well, she had no idea that before they fully committed to me, those girls were already aware of how I am as a person. At this point, only Juri, Marika, and Yayoi-san were the only ones who had yet to know everything about me.

“That’s what I thought at first too, sensei. Good thing I didn’t give up on trying to understand her... I think you should talk to her again, sensei. I’m sure you’ll find her more interesting than you initially thought.”

“Brat, you look like you’re on cloud nine when talking about her. Alright. I’ll do that. It’s been a while since I checked on her state. And she’s not that talkative when reporting to me or asking me for advice. Continue with your report then. I won’t interrupt this time.”

Hayashi-sensei nodded in agreement. Since Shizu treated Hayashi-sensei as a mentor, she’s probably the one who understood that girl the most. But that’s before I came into the picture. Although not really that noticeable to other people, Shizu has changed a lot in the short time ever since I broke through the protective cage she holed herself in.

My suggestion was for them to somehow be on the same page again. Maybe even if it’s not me, Shizu could also provide this woman the distraction to stop her from being depressed from her broken heart.

Anyway, I might be getting ahead of myself there but I only mean well, at the very least.

“Understood.” I nodded before starting with my report.

everything that happened today before meeting her.

I told her that I knew Juri and Setsuna-nee and accompanied them Like I previously planned, the only things I left out were my private moments with my girls and Eguchi-sensei. I also included everything that happened today before meeting her.

I told her that I knew Juri and Setsuna-nee and accompanied them when scouting for the camping location. Though that made her raise an eyebrow, she probably managed to link Satsuki into the equation.

Among everything I reported to her, the one thing Hayashi-sensei showed the most interest in was my involvement in Ichihara Jun and Marika.

Of course, she’s not clueless about their identity. So, after hearing me becoming like a roadblock and police to keep that guy in check, Hayashi-sensei asked me to elaborate on what exactly my connection to them is.

“You... Did you just say you’ve stolen Kujou from Ichihara? Brat, are you mad?!”

Yep. That became her reaction when I revealed my relationship with Marika to her.
