I play the wind instrument in Hokkaido.

Kitahara Hakuba escorted her to the door, and as soon as he opened it, he saw a girl standing in the sun.

She stared motionlessly at the rented room in front of her, like a scarecrow in a rice paddy, seemingly confirming information.

With her lovely face, slender waist, and long, shapely legs, her very posture revealed her resemblance to Nagase Tsukiyo.

The sun was shining brightly today, but the girl was staring intently at the doorway, not fanning herself or showing any impatience. Her long black hair looked exceptionally elegant in the sunlight, and the white hair clips reflected a soft light.

"Eri, Eri?" Nagase Tsukiyo stared at her in surprise.

Eri Kanzaki frowned almost imperceptibly as she looked at the two people coming out of the house, letting out a sound that was almost a groan.

"Hmm:

Chapter 108, Section 107: What if Hakimi had become a Spinosaurus? (4K)

The girl's slender legs were visible beneath her brown pleated skirt, and the curves of her calves were quite beautiful.

Kanzaki Eri appeared where she shouldn't have been, leaving Nagase Tsukiyo speechless for a moment.

She knew very well that Huili was a very reserved girl who was always bound by rules and regulations, and the number of people she would actively seek out could be counted on one hand.

"Eri, what are you doing here?"

As if to cover up their embarrassment, the shadows scattered around Nagase Tsukiyo's feet clung desperately to her body.

Kanzaki Eri's gaze fell on her and Kitahara Hakuba, looking at them with a hesitant expression, unable to utter a single word.

However, Kitahara Hakuba was only upset about one thing.

How does everyone know where he lives? Does he really have no privacy at all? Girls come to his door every few days.

"Lunch break is almost over, let's hurry back."

Nagase Tsukiyo started walking, but noticed that Kanzaki Eri hadn't followed. She turned to the side, puzzled, and asked...

"Huili?"

"Teacher Kitahara isn't here today. I heard from Yuka that the teacher hasn't been able to come lately."

Kanzaki Eri was looking intently at Kitahara Hakuba, her eyes showing no unease whatsoever. The fact that he was alive was a relief to her.

Kitahara Hakuba smiled and said, "It's alright. The director saw that I've been quite tired lately, so he gave me a few days off."

“Lying is not allowed.” Seeing this, Kanzaki Eri raised her hands and drew an “X” in front of her mouth. “Teacher, you can’t possibly have a vacation.”

Kitahara Hakuba:

It sounded painful, but he knew that Kanzaki Eri meant that "with the Hakodate regional tournament approaching, Kitahara-sensei couldn't possibly take a break at this time."

However, it's difficult to categorize what she says and what she truly feels, which is why she always feels like she messes things up whenever she speaks.

"Eri, let's go. Don't disturb Kitahara-sensei's rest."

Seeing her looking so adorable, a flicker of emotion crossed Nagase Tsukiyo's eyes. He reached out and grasped Kanzaki Eri's wrist, saying...

“Let’s go back to school.”

However, Eri Kanzaki unusually exerted a slight effort, preventing her body from following her, and pulled her wrist out to press it against her chest, saying:

"No."

“Eri…” Nagase Tsukiyo was completely stunned. This was the first time in her memory that Eri had refused her request.

Eri Kanzaki's profile, illuminated by the sunlight, revealed a translucent amber hue as she spoke in a barely audible voice:

"Moonlit Night, there are many things you don't tell me."

The soft-spoken question made Nagase Tsukiyo's heart skip a beat. A hint of guilt flashed in her eyes, and she bit her lower lip with a bitter expression, her brows furrowing in a knot.

"What could I possibly be hiding from you..."

Eri Kanzaki lowered her eyelashes, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"Then why were you with Kitahara-sensei? Why did you come out of his house?"

“This…” Nagase Tsukiyo’s throat trembled with uncertainty, her gaze weakly fixed on the asphalt road.

Kitahara Hakuba took the initiative to explain:

"She came to give me a gift, nothing more."

"Giving a gift?" Kanzaki Eri tilted her head curiously.

"Although Mr. Kitahara only teaches music, he is also a teacher at Shin-Asahi High School."

Seeing that he was offering a way out, Nagase Tsukiyo deliberately tightened his face and said with an unquestionable attitude, "Every teacher has to give a gift."

.

Kanzaki Eri blinked expressionlessly. Although she wasn't very good at talking, she wasn't stupid. Tsukiyo was a sheltered young lady who never lifted a finger and wouldn't even consider such things.

But Ms. Kitahara didn't seem willing to explain, and she didn't think about pursuing the matter further.

"Is there something you need, Kanzaki-kun?" Kitahara Hakuba stepped down the steps into the sunlight, as if he had fallen into a golden pool.

Eri Kanzaki tilted her head back and said softly:

"To see the teacher."

"What's so interesting about me?" Kitahara Hakuba said, as if he found it amusing.

“I’ll feel at ease knowing I’ve seen it,” Kanzaki Eri said without the slightest hesitation.

Kitahara Hakuba: "Pai..."

The words spoken by the girl made Nagasuke Tsukiyo's long eyelashes tremble slightly. A memory flashed through her mind: Eri had also said these words to her, "With Tsukiyo here, I feel at ease."

Kitahara Hakuba looked at her porcelain-smooth and lovely face and said, "Alright, it's okay now that you've seen it. Hurry up and go back to class."

Kanzaki Eri nodded obediently, and just as she was about to turn around, she turned back and said:

"Teacher Kitahara, will you come back?"

“Yes, I will,” Kitahara Hakuba said.

She smiled and turned to leave, leaving Nagase Tsukiyo's expression bitter as she lightly twirled the front of her hair.

Watching the two beautiful girls leave one after the other, Kitahara Hakuba returned to his rented room.

Things actually went more smoothly than he had imagined. He hadn't expected that by simply giving Nagase Tsukiyo a favor, she would be able to solve many of his troubles.

It was an unexpected but positive outcome.

As for Saito Haruka's matter, Kitahara Hakuba fell into deep thought, perhaps he himself had made some mistakes.

His mistake was being too gentle with this girl. If he had been more assertive with Saito Haruka during the Solo incident, he might have been able to make her give in.

But it's no use saying more now. People always move forward through constant regrets and setbacks, and Kitahara Hakuba has already learned his lesson.

From now on, he will only be gentle to obedient girls, except for Saito Haruka.

If the adorable Hagi Cat were to transform into a ferocious Spinosaurus, he would have to deal with it in a different way.

I won't touch it anymore, it's a Spinosaurus, I have to fight it.

"Then, let's do it again with the same part as the trumpet."

:yes."

In the first music room, Saito Harukori on the stage grasped the baton with her slender fingers and waved it lightly up and down. However, the members below the stage were not in a good mood, and their breathing sounds made a depressed sound through the brass and wood pipes.

Compared to the previous ensemble, there was no improvement; in fact, it was even worse. "How about we call it a day?" Saito Harutori stopped the ensemble and held the conductor's baton in her hand.

At this moment, after a moment of silence, Miyako Nagasawa raised her hand and said:

"Senior Saito, has Professor Kitahara informed the executives when they will be returning?"

Her words immediately made the other girls hold their breath, and each of them showed a nervous expression.

Although many members initially had reservations about Kitahara Hakuba, as they spent more and more time together, they all came to trust his abilities and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they relied on him.

Although Sakurako Yukawa initially said that "Teacher Kitahara went back to Tokyo for a blind date," the truth eventually came out.

In particular, the fact that Yuka Isomoto was summoned for a talk by the head of student affairs led almost everyone with a modicum of sense to connect this incident with Hakuba Kitahara's "rest".

In school, students who are called in for a private talk by the dean of students are usually those who have made serious mistakes. Students who come out of the dean's office are quickly surrounded by their classmates asking for information.

In particular, Yuka Isomoto kept crying after she came out of the teaching office, which immediately set off a storm of gossip throughout the school.

The situation escalated far beyond expectations, and most members of the brass band did not believe that Kitahara Hakuba would make a move against Isomoto Yuka.

Because her playing skills had genuinely improved, and she was behaving well at school, she didn't seem like someone who had been sexually assaulted.

Of course, some delinquent boys at school would mock, "Maybe Ms. Kitahara is good in bed, which makes her very happy."

However, Kitahara Hyakuma's popularity among the girls at school was beyond imagination. Girls who dared to speak up would retort irritably, "You've been watching too many pornographic videos!"

"Well... I know everyone cares about Kitahara-sensei, but we can't put all our hopes on him alone. If Kitahara-sensei doesn't come back, are we just going to stay listless like this forever? It'll just be the same as before, won't it?"

Saito Harutori's lips trembled slightly. It would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid; how could she not feel anything when she shot an arrow at someone?

But in order to protect his own little corner of the world, he had no choice but to make Mr. Kitahara suffer.

"Then you shouldn't be in charge."

Kuno Tachibana, holding his trumpet with obvious dissatisfaction, said in a bright voice,

"It's just you and Iso Gen-senpai on the euphonium. She's not feeling well right now, and you still went up to conduct. The tone of the entire bass section became a mess. Didn't you notice?"

Her reasoning was so rational that it was impossible to refute her. Saito Haruka quietly placed her baton on the table and said:

“Kuno-senpai is right. Sakurako, you can take charge then.”

"Since Minister Chuan is the principal, if she goes up to conduct, whose timbre should the first voice support? Should it be passed on sequentially?"

The more Kuno Tachibana spoke, the more dissatisfied she became, repeatedly hesitating with her right leg.

"Speaking of Minister Saito, what are you even capable of doing before you went up there giving orders? Your movements were so weak and clumsy that they were practically invisible."

In my opinion, each section should practice individually now, and then play together again when Mr. Kitahara returns.

Her words were more intense than ever before, showing absolutely no respect, which made Saito Haruka squint her eyes.

Many people turned their attention to the girl's slightly stubborn face; it was clear that she was very unhappy today.

She'd probably be quite willing to argue with someone.
