Although they are sensible, they will also act coquettishly to some extent, just like a crying baby, using sounds to remind itself not to be hungry.
"No problem. After the investigation is over, you can go with Bronya when she negotiates with the ministers. I will explain the key points of the negotiation to you on the spot."
"Hehe, let's not delay any further! Teacher, have you prepared the water? In addition to the rabbit, we also prepared summer clothes and swimsuits, as well as sailor uniforms - the teacher likes lotus leaf skirts very much, right? Iori said so~?"
"...She has told you this before? No, no, no, instead of saying that I like lotus leaf skirts, I just wanted to scare her!"
"Eh? Just to scare you?"
"It's hard to start a follow-up cooperation with a girl like Iori who is not a bad person but is overbearing if you don't scare her a little..."
As Kong gave his pale explanation, he felt that his tricks had been seen through, which was indeed related to the fact that he had been "playing tricks on people" too often during that period.
For the innocent girls who were not very aggressive, he would always strike hard and make them give up the idea of getting involved with him. But for girls like Asuna who wanted to break into his house through the window every day... he could only admit defeat and run away. He couldn't regulate his breath at all.
Later, all the students knew that behind all his seemingly outrageous actions, he was actually deliberately stepping on landmines because he was afraid of being conquered, so he condoned such behaviors and even gave more corresponding benefits to fight back. Even Iori could summarize his weaknesses, which really showed that he was being thoroughly grasped.
"Well, but Iori likes the teacher very much, right? Even if you often fight with her, she may not understand your intention to alienate her. Maybe she is deliberately showing that she is very disgusted with your behavior to make you feel guilty——"
Asuna's eyes sparkled with a shrewd light. This was a wonderful trick to seduce men that only a top predator like her could understand:
"She pretends to hate the teacher, but she lets things happen every time and never resorts to violence. Hehe... Iori turns out to be this kind of girl~ Teacher, you should think carefully about whether you have been deceived."
"……what?"
After listening to Asuna's analysis, Sora vaguely discovered that something was wrong.
It turns out that the content of his playfulness with Iori was widely spread...
But the only one who knew these things besides Iori himself was Sorasaki Hina!
Could it be that Hina leaked it? She is not a kid who likes gossiping...
"It was only then that I realized that the teacher unexpectedly liked students with darker skin, and was not only interested in students with good figures."
Hua Lin sighed: "It's a bit self-deprecating to say this... but I don't think my skin color and appearance are outstanding, but the teacher just happens not to dislike me... I'm really lucky."
"咚咚-"
"Hey hey hey! Teacher, what's wrong with you?!"
"Let me die! My image as a teacher has completely collapsed. If this continues, I will have to live in seclusion. No, it would be best if I never return to Kivotos."
"Teacher! Stop creating...! Teacher!"
……
After that, Sora, who almost dug a hole in the wall, was dragged to the bathroom by Asuna and Karin and forced to have his back rubbed.
Sora still had a bit of shame, but even a girl like Karin, who was easily shy and often teased by Sora, no longer cared about the past embarrassments and accidents after entering college. She saw through Sora's timid nature and forcibly provided him with a knee pillow, holding him down, forcing him to relieve the swollen forehead injury.
Maybe it was because Karin and Asuna changed their usual obedience and rested their knees on his left and right sides, Sora was weakened by the extreme gap and became a piece of paper on their legs.
"It's so comfortable... It doesn't matter if the teacher doesn't reward us. Just make it clear that you don't have the physical strength, and we will never force you to accompany us like Ms. Ying did."
Hua Lin breathed gently into the air-conditioning while brushing away the sweat dripping from her forehead before it landed on Sora's nose.
As if afraid that the sweat would soak the empty black and white paper body.
"Karin... Whether you are a teacher to a student or a man to a woman, you can't easily say that you can't do it... This is not just a matter of face."
The air conditioner blew the air as if it was floating, and then it changed from a pale stick figure mode back to a normal human form.
He could see nothing at the end of his sight but a huge shadow. Of course, if he turned it over like a pancake, he would see chocolate and pure cheese, but it would not be very elegant and would be a bit excessive.
"High contrast tones can create a sense of conflict. The dark traditional socks and bright skin tones can enhance visual stimulation for people based on this principle. Therefore, if I work with my seniors, we can achieve perfect coordination whether in combat or helping the teacher relax."
"…Hara Rin, what did you suddenly say?"
"My college elective course was art design and clothing. Like many of my classmates, I had no personality. However, my skin color was relatively rare in Kivotos, so I wanted to create a set of clothes that I felt beautiful. Instead of just choosing clothes from the market, it was better to design them myself."
In the past, she would jump and blush if she was pricked by Kong's stubble, but now, no matter how Kong's hair pricks her, she remains calm. This is what is called maturity: "The teacher likes high contrast between light and dark, and likes a combination with gloss. I know all this, and there is nothing wrong with admitting it."
"..."
"I paired the maid outfit with white gloves and leggings because I saw what you like. Have you ever thought about why Ichinose-senpai has always been fond of blue and black? It's all because you like them."
"Yes, gold and blue have always been the Brahman combination of colors. The gold comes from my hair, and the blue depends on the clothes."
Asuna looked down at Sora's face, her smile just enough to reveal the upper half of her overly neat and gleaming teeth.
"Although Karin can provide black, I also need to go on missions frequently. Later, I fell in love with Rabbit's equipment because the teacher's vision is so easy to understand~"
"You've actually thought so much about me..."
Kong felt more and more sorry for his students, but the back of his head tightened and half of his soul flew away. His hypocritical feelings were easily swept away by the students.
"As long as it's a teacher's request, you can come to us for help no matter how many times you ask - we won't lose to the doctor sister~"
"…You guys really did eavesdrop, didn't you?"
"Hey, what are you eavesdropping on? Asuna, don't you know?"
267. Reality under the magnetic track
Despite the need for vigilance, Kong instead had the most peaceful night since he traveled to this place.
After taking a bath and putting the students to sleep, there was no more noise from the female companion and Paimon, no more shouting from friends playing games, no more tranquility in the Black Tower, no more rich aroma of coffee wafting from Ji Zi's room, no more noise from Lao Yang lifting iron and no more humming from the think tank -
There were only the slight noises of Pam mopping and sweeping the floor, the friction sound of its furry legs jumping back and forth on the smooth floor, and the snow-covered Yalilo VI outside the observation car.
As a legendary night owl who doesn't need to sleep at all, Sora really enjoys this rare quiet time...
For a guy who has almost given up all his "personal space", the best rest is to give himself time to empty his mind without having to respond to other people's expectations.
Pam was busy for only five or six minutes before she noticed that the corners of Sora's mouth turned from straight to upturned, as if staring at that plain planet was a refreshing pastime for him.
Considering how hard Kong had been working, Pam did not express dissatisfaction with his occasional "daydreaming and laziness".
It was Befa's job to take care of his daily life, but she always felt that the sight of him sitting there alone and "smiling foolishly" was a bit pitiful, so Pam made a cup of black tea and handed it to the table.
Consuming tea polyphenols in the early morning can disrupt a person's daily routine...but considering his overly unhealthy daily routine, this is a minor problem.
"Thank you for your hard work in keeping watch."
Although Pam always gave others the illusion that she was very strict with Sora, she actually had a very good relationship with Sora in private. Whenever she thought of the hustle and bustle in the car, she would never blame Sora for anything.
"Won't the conductor take a rest?"
"My sleep needs are different from yours. It doesn't matter if I don't sleep. I will only go back to the captain's room when I am particularly tired."
"What a coincidence, I'm almost the same."
"Why don't I see Paimon——"
"She is resting in the inner room. This distance will not force her to return to me."
"So that's it, just like my relationship with trains?" Pam felt a strange sense of identity.
There seems to be a little difference...
Kong thought for a moment and nodded hesitantly.
"There are many inseparable relationships in this world - flight attendant, when will the guests arrive?"
"She should be almost done with her work. She is different from me. She must take a break after staying up all night. I guess she will drag Sanyue to jail again tonight."
"...I seem to hear someone saying bad things about me behind my back? Huh?"
As if waiting for Kong to make some "inappropriate remarks" on purpose, or perhaps just by coincidence, the figure of the silver wolf emerged from beside the potted plant, jumped over the booth from behind, and hung on the back of the sofa behind Kong.
The bubbles in her mouth grew rapidly and exploded next to Sora's ears, blowing out a sweet smell of raspberries.
"Wow, you, where did you come from?" Pam was so scared by Silver Wolf's quantum hologram that her ears stood up.
"Don't be nervous. I'm just a shadow now. If you don't have time to help me locate myself, I won't be able to teleport here."
The silver wolf's eyes fell on Pam's ears, and the furry visual effect made her excited.
"Train conductor, right? I didn't greet you properly during the previous infiltrations. Hello, hello - I'm here to help Sora clean up his mess."
The Silver Wolf, who had already gotten used to the new code name of "Hunter", established a relationship with him in a very familiar manner.
"There's no such thing as a mess. I'm just inviting you to add a few lines of code to the production line."
"Didn't you ask me to hack into the autonomous robot in Kburg?"
"Oh yeah, that's a job too."
"benefit."
"Give."
Kong turned around, took out five tubes from his pocket and handed them to Silver Wolf's shadow. When he raised his head, Silver Wolf almost got his bubble gum stuck to his hair.
The way these two communicated was so familiar that Pam wondered if Sora still had memories of his time with the Hunter—
But Party A’s history and information coverage were comprehensive, and neither Silver Wolf nor Sora felt that there was anything wrong with this kind of friendship-like way of getting along.
"Although Navigator Jizi has agreed to let you board the bus, Silver Wolf passenger, you are wanted after all, so it is better to be careful -"
Pam put her hands on her hips and found the silver wolf's repeated eagerness to hug her a little scary.
"No, I've already lost the star."
The silver wolf's nose was raised high as it continued to hang on the back of the sofa, as if it was trying to stick to Kong's head - but because Kong's height changed a lot, she tried several times but failed to put her chin on the top of Kong's head. In the end, she fell down in dissatisfaction, and her shadow solidified, and she simply teleported her real body over.
"...What does it mean to eliminate stars?" Pam made a cross on her face.
"The company has taken back my wanted order. Esta helped me get it. Now I'm putting my dark web identity on hold for now. I'm going to be active in Pierpoint as a hacker for a while, and take advantage of the treatment of the Strategic Investment Department... The price is that I'll help hack into the forum of the Knowledge Society in a while. I'm not in a position to ask for the specific reason."
“…Is it still possible?”
Pam was shocked, but Silver Wolf had no intention of discussing this dark topic with her:
"Is there any place to rest in the car? I need my beauty sleep at 6am."
While pretending to yawn, she calmly sat down next to Sora, her movements were so smooth and natural that Sora almost didn't react. Then she raised her right arm and used Sora's shoulder as a handrail - she had no concept of social distance at all.
But considering that Aha had used up all his energy to conquer her... it seemed to him that Silver Wolf definitely had a strong liking for her and would actively make some physical contact with her. He definitely wasn't simply treating her as a male best friend.
"A new space has been separated from Jizi's room. Silver Wolf passengers can go there to rest--"
"Uh, no thanks, Pam. It's a bit bad to disturb Ji Zi now... Ying's room is temporarily unoccupied. She said she'll give it to you... But are you sure you can still have beauty sleep at six o'clock?"
Although he stays up late every day, Silver Wolf doesn't have any dark circles under his eyes and his skin is still smooth. It may be because he rarely goes out and rarely sees the sun. I don't know if he is lacking in vitamin D.
