Love Comes After Learning

"Hmm...ha..."

Asada stared at the suit skirt parallel to the line of sight, the straight curve became more rounded with the tiptoes, and even the shape outlined by the fabric could be faintly seen, coupled with the soft humming sound that seemed to be struggling...

He raised his head, and said to Kirisu Mafuyu who was sitting on the chair with dignity.

"Mr. Tongsu, you are wearing high heels, it's too dangerous. Let me help you get them."

Teacher Tongxu froze for a moment, looked down at him, and then looked at the piles of documents above, and said calmly.

"No, I'm almost fine."

Asada did not stick to her point of view, and changed her tone with the same calm tone as hers.

"Then you must be careful."

"If you fall, I will definitely catch you, and if someone just broke in at this time and saw me using a more ambiguous posture to prevent you from falling, what kind of misunderstanding will be caused at that time... I don't care It's guaranteed."

"..." Mafuyu Kirisu lowered his head and stared at him again, thought for a while, sighed, and finally retracted his raised hand, "Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

She bent down cautiously, her long legs wrapped in black silk stepped out of the chair, and her high heels hit the ground with a crisp sound.

"Hmm..." She seemed to be numb on tiptoe, she made a distressed voice, and leaned towards the cabinet.

Asada caught her hand in time, as if inviting a dance to a princess, with his fingers in her palm, his movements were polite and gentle.

Kirisu Mafuyu turned to look at him in surprise, his calm expression showed a little embarrassment, he looked away, but did not let go.

It wasn't until Mr. Kirisu supported the cabinet to stand firmly that he let go of his hand and stood on the chair pretending to have nothing to do.

"What information are you looking for?"

"..." Kirisu Mafuyu stared at him fixedly, and after a few seconds, he looked away, coughed twice, stroked the hair on his cheeks, and said calmly.

"Thanks. What I'm looking for is...

Chapter 5 Come on!Hurt each other!

After helping Mr. Tongxu to take down the materials on the cabinet, the two sat facing each other, looking at each other with no fluctuation in expression. The atmosphere was awkward for a few seconds before Mr. Tongxu spoke.

"There are two things I'm looking for you this time, the first is this."

She turned the document around, handed it to Asada at the opposite table, and gave a brief explanation.

"The multi-school talent exchange meeting is held once a year. Only students who have made amazing achievements in certain fields can be recommended, and the grade is limited to the second year of high school. Xiuzhiyuan Academy has three places, and I recommend you to the school."

Asada glanced over the densely packed characters on the information, frowned slightly, and looked up at her.

"I only have outstanding academic performance. In terms of overall quality, there should be better choices than me."

Looking straight back with blue eyes carved like ice crystals, Mafuyu Kirisu said calmly.

"Note. Last year, Shirogin Miyuki, Shinomiya Kaguya, and Fujiwara Chika participated. If they can go, you can naturally too."

President them?

Shinichi Asada thought about it. Needless to say, President Shirogane has ascended to the highest position in the academy with his hard work and charisma, so he is naturally qualified to participate; senior sister Shinomiya is a well-known genius lady; Secretary Fujiwara also has music The reputation of a genius and proficiency in multiple languages, although the brain is missing a root, it is still not to be underestimated.

Coupled with the bonus of being a member of the student union, it is appropriate for the three of them to stand out and represent Shuzhiin Academy to participate in this "Multi-University Talent Exchange Meeting".

"So...you recommended me because I am also a member of the student council?"

Since he thought that there was nothing worth mentioning except his grades, Asada frowned and couldn't help making such a guess.

With a heavy expression, Kirisu Mafuyu looked a little unhappy, his face became a little tense, and his eyes became sharper.

"Student union is naturally one of the points to add points, but it is not absolute. This school has a large number of talents and a collection of talents, so it pays more attention to the "comprehensive talent" that can be compared with other schools outside the school, rather than simply using "outstanding talent" as the evaluation standard .”

After finishing speaking in a formulaic tone, she paused, as if she was reluctant to mention it, and said lightly.

"For example. For example, No.1 in the second grade. Her talent is not only reflected in her academic performance, but also in all aspects of excellence that no one has ever surpassed. It's off the list... I say that, and you know what I mean."

Asada was silent for a moment, nodded, and said with a half-sigh.

"To put it simply, it doesn't matter whether the person is talented or not, as long as the teacher is above the standard, whichever student is pleasing to the eyes of the teachers, they should choose that student?"

"..."

Kirisu Mafuyu glared at the brat who slandered his teacher for five seconds with a terrifying gaze as cold as an ice prison.

Then he closed his eyes, took a restless breath, and maintained his usual calm demeanor.

"Sure. In any case, I recommend you for this position in my hand. There will be an interview soon. Please prepare well."

"Can't I say no?"

Kirisu Mafuyu suddenly opened his eyes and stared at him.

His expression was flat, as if he said he didn't want to eat barbecue tonight, and his intention to refuse was very obvious.

Kirisu Mafuyu looked at him, and the two of them met with the same straight and awe-inspiring eyes, as if they were confirming whose will was stronger, their eyes met, making the air tense for more than ten seconds, as if time stood still at this moment.

After an unknown amount of time, the young and mature female teacher spoke first.

"...This is an opportunity to learn, communicate with more different talents, broaden your horizons, and help you in the future."

Tapped his knee with his index finger, and after organizing his words, Asada replied calmly.

"Even if I rank first, my level is not up to the level that can represent the school to participate in this kind of exchange meeting. My only commendable strength is only learning, and I don't refute the fact that the exchange meeting can bring me improvement. "

"But for the school, the focus of the exchange meeting is on 'comparison' and 'honor', so it should be offered by an institution of higher learning with top grades and worthy of talent gathering like Xiuzhiyuan Academy Only "Ghost-level" players can play."

"From this point of view, instead of recommending me, Furuhashi or Ogata..."

Kirisu-sensei, who was listening to him quietly at first, finally interrupted him.

"You were not as confident that day as you are now."

"..." Asada frowned slightly, and his tone became tougher, "The two are not things that can be compared."

"Why not?" Kirisu Mafuyu retorted unwaveringly, keeping his eyes on him seriously all the time, "You believe that you can lead them through my test, why can't you believe that you are enough to represent the school to participate in the exchange meeting?"

"Where did your confidence come from? Why did you lose it? If you can't tell me clearly, this recommendation will not be handed over to others."

Asada opened his mouth, and was speechless for a while under her persuasive gaze.

After a while, slowly pursing his lips, he lowered his posture, but he didn't intend to flinch.

"...Even if I am confident that I won't embarrass the school, that doesn't mean there are no better candidates than me."

"You don't need to worry about that. I just let you go for an interview. It's up to you whether you get selected or not."

Kirisu Mafuyu spoke decisively without any hesitation.

"Opportunity. Regardless of whether you have to take the interview seriously or whether you will give up this qualification after the interview is successful, as a teacher, I only give you a chance to show your talent. Other than that, I have no right to interfere."

Asada's eyes widened slightly as if hearing something strange.

"My own talent...?"

Mafuyu Kirisu stared at his seemingly ignorant expression, a faint helpless smile appeared on that cold and serious face.

"Consciousness. Didn't you say it yourself? The only thing worthy of praise is learning."

"Since that's the case, let people from other schools see what kind of brilliance the "study talent" that even the teachers can conquer in this Shuzhiin academy has."

"..."

Asada silently looked away, avoiding her undisguised trusting gaze, the beating of the heart in the chest became extremely obvious at this moment, which caused a slight change in his expression.

After a period of hesitation, he finally sighed.

"The teacher still remembers what I said at that time."

"Profound. I thought it was just a child's joke, but I didn't expect you to be able to practice it."

Teacher Tongxu had a serious expression and said word by word.

"'The most important thing is...the belief that you denied, and the brilliant light it emits, I also want you to see it'.

I can't help but laugh at the moment, I just feel that these words and deeds are too weak, but when I think of what you said before, "the persistence in learning, the obsession with exploring the unknown, and the foolish insistence on things that outsiders don't understand, I am willing to devote my whole life to this." determination...you don’t understand me, and you don’t understand them’, I can’t help—”

Asada suddenly interrupted her words.

"Oh, well, that's enough, I see, please don't say any more."

"?" Kirisu Mafuyu tilted his head, looked at him covering his face and turned his head, looking unbearable to be humiliated, and frowned slightly, "It's strange. This is what you said yourself, why..."

Asada's face hidden under the palm twitched, and after a while, the faint voice of gnashing of teeth suddenly came out.

"'I've made up my mind a long time ago. Instead of letting them resent me for my inaction in the unfortunate future, it is better to become a villain who breaks their ignorant illusions now!'"

"!?"

Kirisu Mafuyu couldn't help but widen her eyes, she felt that this sentence seemed a bit familiar...

Before she could react, Shinichi Asada's seemingly broken sneer gradually came out, as if he had given up some bottom line, and the next sentence was actually spoken in Kirisu Mafuyu's voice.

"'I just know! Because... I am like that too!'"

The tone of the voice is faintly crying, with ups and downs, lifelike, it's almost like replaying the conversation between the two of them that day on a tape recorder.

So, Mafuyu Kirisu finally understood that Shinichi Asada was retaliating with fire, and let her know why he had such an embarrassing reaction!

"you you……"

Staring at the student in disbelief, Mafuyu Kirisu's lips trembled slightly, and blood-like red slowly rose from her slender neck, dyeing her pretty and glamorous face red, as if her pink hair As if they were about to burn together, shame and embarrassment appeared on their faces, and their teeth could not help but clenched.

Asada hid his expression under the palm of his hand, his ears were red but he was aggressive, and a familiar female voice came out.

"'For their own good, count it as a teacher... count me and ask you.'"

Kirisu Mafuyu stiffened and petrified on the chair as if he was suffocating, staring at him for a moment, then took a deep breath, propped his face that seemed to be cooked, and spoke forcefully.

"'If talent is to let us give up all our own possibilities, then I will show you the miracle of hard work!'"

"'If you don't stop them before it's too late, then the culprit is me as a teacher, do you understand this truth?!'"

"..."

"...

Chapter 6 Harmful to teacher's morality

"Hoo..." "Hoo..."

After exposing each other's dark history to each other like this for a long time, the two finally calmed down, their faces were so red that they were burning hot, they took a few breaths as if they had done some strenuous exercise, and took a deep look at each other.
