However, the sharp-eyed Hikari noticed everything.
Regarding this busty female teacher with whom he had an unexpected deep and shallow connection, it was impossible for Hikari to say he was completely indifferent. He paid her some attention.
Today, it seemed that Tsukishima Kyoko had something she wanted to say to him.
But she just kept looking at him, never opening her mouth to speak.
Every time she looked, she quickly averted her eyes.
So, until she spoke up, Hikari had no way to proactively go ask her what exactly she wanted to say.
Back in the classroom, after dealing with the three enthusiastic gals, Ruri and others, Hikari, like many diligent students, seriously began to listen to the lesson.

[Asou Apartments]
There were very few people entering or exiting the building entrance downstairs because, at this hour, office workers and students were either at their workplaces or schools, either toiling away at work or struggling through studies.
But for some otaku, the time for staying home had just begun.
After waking up in bed, Kareki Tsunetaka did not open the heavy curtains to confirm whether it was morning or night by the sunlight. He simply turned on his phone in the darkness to check the time.
Quietly leaving his room, after confirming that Katsuragi Shouko and her two daughters had all left the apartment, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then, a burning fighting spirit ignited in his eyes, and he muttered an encouraging phrase to himself.
"Alright! Time for action!"
Soon, Kareki Tsunetaka was unusually busy working alone at home.
Because ever since the incident where he dr*gged Katsuragi Shouko that day, although Katsuragi Shouko perhaps due to lack of evidence had never reported him or said anything to him, she had gradually grown wary of Kareki Tsunetaka in her heart. Naturally, her attitude towards this stepson completely lost its former warmth.
———
And since even the mother, Katsuragi Shouko, held such an attitude, the two sisters, Katsuragi Sayaka and Katsuragi Yuki, who already had a poor impression of their stepbrother, naturally treated Kareki Tsunetaka with even more coldness.
This attitude made Kareki Tsunetaka, who was already very dissatisfied as a home security guard, even angrier.
After all, these people were nominally still his family.
Yet they dared to act like this, disturbing his life.
Sure enough, he should have turned these damn fem*les, nominally his mother and sisters, into his flesh ple*sure to*ls right from the start.
Especially when he thought about how he had set up Katsuragi Shouko by dr*gging her, only to end up paving the way for Hikari, Kareki Tsunetaka felt even more furious in his heart.
Because of this anger, before going to sleep last night, Kareki Tsunetaka had conceived a grand plan.
He planned to install hidden miniature cameras in almost every part of the house today.
As the home security guard, he would bring every corner of the house under his surveillance.
Only by doing this could he obtain all the information within the house.
Those damn fem*les would no longer have any privacy in front of him.
After figuring this out, Kareki Tsunetaka began to take action, starting to install cameras in places including their three bedrooms and the bathroom.
After all, he was a long-time fat otaku with poor physical strength. To achieve his goal, Kareki Tsunetaka was panting heavily from exhaustion.
However, lying on the bed gasping like a dead dog, he couldn't help but reveal a smug and excited smile.
After all, he, the home security guard, had done it.
Next, he just needed to wait and use these miniature cameras spread throughout the house to secretly capture their priv*te moments, the mother and her three daughters.
He could use this to conquer these few fem*le d*gs in the house.
He believed that through those photos and videos, he would definitely succeed in achieving his goal.
This was the ninja way of Kareki Tsunetaka, the home security guard.

The setting sun hung in the west, and the hour of dusk had arrived.
The orange remnant sunlight shone upon people returning home from work and school.
Katsuragi Shouko, still wearing her OL uniform, had just returned to the entrance of Asou Apartments when she ran into her younger daughter, Katsuragi Yuki. The two immediately went upstairs to return home together.
"Yuki, I'm going upstairs to change clothes and then cook. Can you take the groceries to the kitchen for me?", After entering the house, Katsuragi Shouko put down her bag and instructed her daughter.
"Okay, but let me use the toilet first. It's kind of urgent. I'll put the stuff in the kitchen in a moment," Katsuragi Yuki nodded.
Hearing this, Katsuragi Shouko didn't react much.
But Kareki Tsunetaka, who was holed up in his bedroom at this moment, secretly watching and listening to the two of them through the surveillance, became excited.
"Good! Changing clothes, going to the toilet... go, go quickly!"
Kareki Tsunetaka had already installed three or four cameras in the bathroom beforehand. From the floor to the ceiling, and even opposite the toilet and under the toilet bowl. He had installed them from various angles, more comprehensive than those used for filming a female lead in a movie.
After all, his goal was to monitor these fem*les at all times.
And in the room of Katsuragi Shouko, this silverly l*stful and lowly fem*le pig, he had also installed quite a few.
So, as long as they went to the toilet or changed clothes, he would immediately get an eyeful.
Moreover, he could preserve precious photos and videos, which might just be used to threten them.
Thinking of this, Kareki Tsunetaka's eyes behind his thick lenses flashed with evil and excited light, his throat unconsciously swallowing several times, as if his entire body was already burning with fervor.
However, just as Katsuragi Shouko was about to go upstairs and Katsuragi Yuki had just opened the bathroom door, the main door of the house was suddenly opened again.
"Sayaka?", The person entering now was none other than Katsuragi Sayaka.
Seeing that the newcomer was Katsuragi Sayaka, Katsuragi Shouko and Katsuragi Yuki prepared to continue upstairs and into the bathroom respectively.
But Katsuragi Sayaka suddenly spoke up, "Mom, Yuki, wait a moment."
"Huh? Sayaka, is there something you need to say?", Katsuragi Shouko looked puzzled.
"Sis, can we talk about it later? I need to use the toilet, I can't hold it in anymore!", Katsuragi Yuki tried to go straight into the bathroom.
But Katsuragi Sayaka stopped her, saying, "I told you to wait."
As she spoke, Katsuragi Sayaka pulled out a small black rectangular box from her schoolbag, with several lights flashing on it.
Seeing this scene, Katsuragi Shouko curiously walked over.
And Katsuragi Yuki also stopped being in a hurry to go to the toilet, asking curiously, "Sis, what is this thing?"
Looking at her confused mother and sister, Katsuragi Sayaka explained, "This is a camera detector, specifically used to detect hidden cameras."
"Do you still remember when we first came here, and there was a pinhole camera hidden in the bathroom of this house?"
"I had almost forgotten about it, but after class today, Hikari-kun reminded me. I remembered immediately, so I specially bought this and brought it back."
Hearing Katsuragi Sayaka's words, Katsuragi Yuki's face changed, "I... I remember! That's right, that happened. The first time we came here, we found a camera in the bathroom. Thankfully, Hikari-kun discovered it when he came to fix the faucet, otherwise it would have been terrible."
"Then... then I won't go to the toilet for now. Let's do a detection first!"
Getting her sister's agreement, Katsuragi Sayaka turned to look at her mother.
"Yeah, let's do a detection first," Katsuragi Shouko also nodded.
Before, she might not have paid much attention to this matter.
But after the incident where she was possibly dr*gged, she also began to feel very insecure about this house.
"Alright, since you both agree, I'll start the detection. Let's start with the toilet," Katsuragi Sayaka pressed the detector's switch and walked into the bathroom. Katsuragi Yuki and Katsuragi Shouko hurriedly followed behind.
What happened next was something none of the mother and daughters, Katsuragi Shouko and the others, had expected.
As soon as Katsuragi Sayaka entered the bathroom holding the detector, the detector in her hand instantly emitted a strong alarm sound.
Listening to the constantly beeping detector and looking at the intense red light flashing from the small lamp on the detector, the mother and daughters were all somewhat stunned.
Katsuragi Sayaka was also somewhat unbelievable, "The alarm is so loud... There really is surveillance in the bathroom, and more than one..."
She moved the detector around, trying to locate the exact positions of the cameras.
The result was alarms from inside the bathroom mirror cabinet, alarms from the ceiling drop ceiling, alarms from under the floor, and even alarms from inside the toilet tank and the toilet bowl itself.
This scene startled both Katsuragi Shouko and Katsuragi Yuki.
"This... this one bathroom has cameras in this many places?", Katsuragi Shouko was astonished.
"Right! There can't be one even inside the toilet bowl, can there? Sis, is your detector broken?", Katsuragi Yuki also found it hard to believe.
Katsuragi Sayaka initially also suspected whether the detector might be faulty, but remembering that it was Hikari who had reminded her and told her to take it seriously, she immediately shook her head, "Whether the detector is broken, or there really are this many cameras, we'll know after we check."
As she spoke, Katsuragi Sayaka opened the mirror cabinet.
Sure enough, she retrieved a pinhole camera from inside.
Seeing this pinhole camera aimed directly at the toilet, the faces of Katsuragi Shouko and Katsuragi Yuki also became extremely grim.
Especially Katsuragi Yuki. Thinking about how she was about to go into the bathroom to urinate just moments ago, and how the entire process would have been recorded by who-knows-who for others to watch, her entire face flushed bright red, from anger.
"Sis, lend me the detector for a moment!"
Furious, she snatched the camera detector from Katsuragi Sayaka's hands and quickly began checking the other locations that had triggered alarms.
Soon, she retrieved camera after camera from under the floor tiles that had alarmed earlier, from the ceiling drop ceiling, and even from the toilet tank and the toilet bowl itself.
Looking at these numerous cameras, Katsuragi Shouko and the other mother and daughters were both shocked and furious, each feeling a sense of retrospective fear.
"Thank goodness you stopped me from going to the toilet right away, sis!", Katsuragi Yuki said.
"Luckily you were vigilant enough, Sayaka," Katsuragi Shouko also said.
"It's only because Hikari-kun reminded me that I remembered," Katsuragi Sayaka shook her head and said.
"Alright, let's continue checking other places," The quite angry Katsuragi Yuki said impatiently.
"Yeah, let's check the living room and these areas first, then go upstairs to the second floor and check our bedrooms," Katsuragi Sayaka, being relatively calmer, suggested.
Then, under Katsuragi Sayaka's lead, the mother and daughters scanned the entire house.
Soon, they found a large pile of cameras.
Looking at this whole basket full of miniature cameras, even the most good-tempered and gentle Katsuragi Shouko was furious enough, her full chest heaving continuously.
"This is too wicked! Who on earth did this? To actually fill the entire house with cameras, all hidden in secret and private places, this is just too much," Katsuragi Yuki angrily punched the table.
"It really is too much. There were even three or four cameras hidden in our bedrooms. Really...", Katsuragi Shouko also couldn't help shaking her head.
Katsuragi Sayaka spoke calmly, asking her mother and sister, "This kind of thing is indeed excessive. Who do you think did it?"
Hearing Katsuragi Sayaka's question, Katsuragi Shouko and Katsuragi Yuki suddenly fell silent.
Although the mother and daughters didn't speak, they already had a vague answer in their hearts.
This house was usually always occupied and locked tight.
If a stranger had come in to secretly install surveillance to spy on them, they wouldn't have come twice in a row, right?
Moreover, if it were a stranger, how would they have so much time to install so many cameras all over the house?
The locations of these cameras almost certainly indicated it was done by someone familiar.
Furthermore, if it were done by a stranger, it definitely couldn't have escaped the notice of Kareki Tsunetaka himself, who stayed home every day.
Therefore, the perpetrator was almost certainly someone within the household.
And the mother and daughters had lived alone together for so long before this, and such a thing had never happened even once. Moreover, they had already seen each other's bodies and had no need to spy on each other's privacy.
Taking all these factors into account, there was almost only one possible person who could have installed these hidden and disgusting cameras.
That was Kareki Tsunetaka himself.
The mother and daughters, Katsuragi Shouko and the others, exchanged glances, each understanding that the others had also figured out who the real culprit was.
Thinking that he had secretly installed these pinhole cameras in private and hidden places like the toilet and their bedrooms, intending to secretly watch and monitor them every day, the faces of Katsuragi Shouko and the other mother and daughters couldn't help but flush red, all from anger.
