"Kato-san, Mr. Nakamura is looking for you. He said he wants you to come to the office immediately."
"Ah? What does Mr. Nakamura want from you?" Yamaguchi Takashi asked.
"I don't know." Kato Yusuke shook his head and looked at Yamaguchi and Takei respectively, "Then I'll go for a while, you guys go back first."
"Eh~~? It's rare for me to get a coupon for that "Meow Meow Club". I'm so unlucky." Ichiro Takei shook the pink coupon in his hand and said with a look of regret.
"Eh, why?" Takei Ichiro said vaguely: "It's obviously you who said he wanted to go..."
"I told you not to say it——!" Yamaguchi Takashi locked Ichiro Takei's neck and explained to the side: "Uh... well, Kato-kun... Takei is just joking, please don't take it to heart.
!”
"ah."
After hearing what he said, the girl with short bob hair raised her head, looked away from the phone, and responded calmly.
"Don't mind me. I don't mind even if Takei-san and Yamaguchi-san go to a store that sounds suspicious."
As she said this, she looked at Kato Yusuke and pointedly said: "Where is Kato-san? Do you want me to tell the teacher that you are inconvenient today?"
"No need, I just went home with them. Since the teacher called me, let's go now." After saying that, Kato Yusuke took the lead and walked out the door.
"Well, okay." Megumi Kato nodded, "Goodbye, Takei-san and Yamaguchi-san."
Then she followed.
…
The corridor of the school building looked particularly warm against the setting sun. Listening to the passionate slogans coming from the playground, Yusuke Kato suddenly spoke.
"If you don't like something, you have to say no."
"Hmm?"
"I mean the things that others ask you to do. It's probably because you have such a good temper that you are often asked to do errands by the teacher."
"Hey, is that so?"
Kato Megumi glanced at him and said, "I didn't think so, but thank you anyway."
"Won't."
Two figures walked on the road one behind the other.
There is no deliberate effort to find something to say, nor is there the embarrassment of being silent.
White indoor shoes are stepping on the floor, and the pace is neither fast nor slow. The atmosphere is simple and plain, but it does not make people feel boring.
The blue skirt swayed gently with the breeze, revealing her shapely, white and slender legs. Kato Megumi raised her hand and pointed forward.
"The office has arrived."
Kato Yusuke nodded lightly, and the two of them walked into the room with the sign "Teacher's Office".
"Excuse me." Megumi Kato said, looking across the desks arranged side by side, "Ms. Nakamura, Kato-san is already here."
"Oh~! Thank you for your hard work, Kato." Teacher Nakamura raised his head and said, "You can go back."
"Okay." Kato Megumi nodded, not caring about the ambiguity in Nakamura's words, and waved to Kato Yusuke, "Then I'll leave first, Kato-kun."
"Well, goodbye." Kato Yusuke responded. After she left, he closed the office door and walked to Nakamura Masaru's desk. "Mr. Nakamura, what do you want from me?"
"Well... nothing special." Nakamura Masaru leaned back on the chair, "I just wanted to talk to you."
"Talk about...?" Kato Yusuke frowned, "What are you talking about?"
"Well." Nakamura Masaru looked at him and said thoughtfully: "Kato, have you got a girlfriend recently?"
???
"Isn't it?" Nakamura Katsu smiled and joked: "Not only have you looked good recently, but the shirts you wear have also become very neat. You can only pay attention to your image to have a girlfriend."
"How is it? Is the other party from our school? Or from another school?"
"teacher."
Kato Yusuke took a deep breath, twitched the corners of his eyes and asked, "Although I don't want to think so, is this why you came to me to ask?"
"Don't be so cold. It's normal for a teacher to care about his students."
"No, you're just gossiping."
"Puch..."
Hearing their conversation, Hasumi Kanoko, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help but laugh out loud. When she saw the two of them looking at her, she stuck out her tongue cutely, then picked up a lesson plan and pretended to read it.
.
"Anyway..." Kato Yusuke withdrew his gaze, "If you have nothing else to do, I will go back."
"Ah, wait a minute." Nakamura Masaru threw a manual to him, "Remember to read this when you go back and give me an answer in three days."
"Society...promotion...manual?"
Kato Yusuke recited the above text, "What does this mean?"
"Choose the one you are interested in participating in." Nakamura Katsu said nonchalantly.
"I reject……!"
"Rejection invalid."
"I object……!"
"invalid objection."
"Then I choose to return to the home department!"
"Rejected." Nakamura Katsu said with a smile: "High school life is incomplete without joining a club, even for one year. You must choose one to join, that's it."
Shivering!
"Even if I, Kato Yusuke, drop out of school today, I will never accept this unreasonable request——"
"Ding, you have started a new task, please check it carefully."
"[Nakamura-sensei’s hope·Part 2! (0/1)]."
"Task description: Please join any club in our school within three days and obtain an evaluation of excellent or above (some clubs can trigger hidden tasks, please explore by yourself)."
"Task reward: 2000 points."
After being silent for about ten seconds, Kato Yusuke looked up at Nakamura Masaru, cleared his throat and said.
"...I understand, I will consider this matter carefully."
"I actually agreed...!"
A small exclamation came from next door.
Even Masaru Nakamura himself looked at him with strange eyes.
Kato Yusuke tried his best to control his expression, said "Goodbye, teacher" to the two of them, and then hurried out of the office, still holding the booklet in his hand.
After Kato Yusuke leaves.
"Pfft..." Hasumi Kanoko put down the lesson plan she was holding upside down and said with a smile: "That's Kato from your class, aren't you bullying him too much, Mr. Nakamura?"
"Well... that child is more complicated. I just think it's better for him. After all, he doesn't usually interact with others."
"Hey, is that so?"
Nakamura Katsu nodded and briefly introduced Kato Yusuke's family situation to Hasumi Kanoko.
a moment later
"That's right..." Hasumi Kanoko sighed, "He is a poor child."
Then she raised her head and said to Nakamura Masaru in a slightly reproachful tone: "In that case, we shouldn't force him!"
"No." Nakamura Masaru shook his head, "Pressure will make him grow."
He flipped through the test papers on the table, found the one with Kato Yusuke's name on it, and murmured: "And I think there are some undiscovered possibilities in him."
"Really?" Hassan saw that Kanoko still looked disapproving, but he couldn't comment too much, so he could only tell him: "Don't go too far."
Nakamura was noncommittal, with a strong desire to explore in his eyes.
Seeing this, Ren couldn't help but sigh when seeing Kanoko, thinking silently in her heart.
Please pay more attention to that child if you have the chance.
