The rain was still pattering down, and the autumn wind carried raindrops, tapping against the window sill.
Although the first class of the afternoon was Kanade Himuro's math class, Ho Fei-yu had no mind to listen, his thoughts already miles away.
With his current ability to read a line at a glance, even if he didn't listen to a single class, spending a little extra time cramming a week or two before the final exam would be more than enough.
He hadn't expected to encounter a supernatural creature from a strange tale, Hanako, barely a week after enrolling. Although it was the Ura-Sekai version, it still slightly surprised him, as those things only existed in novels and on TV in his previous life.
Since he had encountered Hanako, could the Slit-Mouthed Woman (Kuchisake-Onna) or Eight-Foot-Tall-Lady (Hachishaku-sama) be far behind?
Ho Fei-yu couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. It wasn't just because he was lecherous, but purely out of curiosity.
Ho Fei-yu was spacing out below, while Kanade Himuro was gritting her teeth above.
Every time class started, her eyes involuntarily wanted to look in Ho Fei-yu's direction. It was absolutely not because this little scoundrel had bullied her, leading to a special feeling for him, but rather because she was searching for an opportunity to make him look foolish and kneel at her feet to lick her shoes. No one knew the truth, but that's how Kanade Himuro convinced herself.
Watching Ho Fei-yu, who had been frequently zoning out since class began, the brand-new piece of pink chalk she held was subconsciously snapped in two again. She then irritably tossed it onto the podium. Looking at the five or six similarly broken pieces of chalk lying there, she felt even angrier. She wanted to explode but was afraid of being overpowered again.
That scene remained in her mind, lingering and unforgettable. No matter when she recalled it, it made her furious, but... that feeling also made her entire body tingle and burn, as if weak electric currents were running through her, both above and below.
Her cheeks couldn't help but heat up, and she felt a strange sensation down below. Kanade Himuro quickly picked up a book to cover the flush on her face. At the same time, her voluptuous thighs, encased in black stockings, slowly rubbed together. Fortunately, the podium was tall enough, and her tone remained cold and normal when she spoke about the problems, so she didn't attract attention or suspicion.
Four or five minutes later, Kanade Himuro felt much better.
She then realized she had to put the book down, or it would definitely arouse the students' suspicion.
She needed to find a reasonable excuse to cover up the redness on her face. While thinking, she noticed a simple but frequently mistaken typical easy-score question in the book. A light bulb went off, and she found a solution.
Kanade Himuro meticulously explained the question.
Then, the next moment.
Bang!
"Listen to me, everyone! This is such a simple question, but no matter how many times I explain it, someone always gets it wrong on the exam. I don't want to see a single student in this class make a mistake on the next test, or else!"
Kanade Himuro slammed the book onto the podium, causing a loud bang.
The sudden burst of noise startled most people, especially those who were always dozing off during math class. Hearing the sound, they immediately sat up straight, pretending to listen. But seeing the flush spreading on Kanade Himuro's face due to anger, they self-consciously lowered their heads.
"Alright, I don't mean to scold you, but I just hope you don't lose points on such simple questions. You might encounter them when taking the entrance exam for your desired university in the future."
Kanade Himuro was satisfied with everyone's reaction. No one seemed suspicious. Her expression immediately softened, and she spoke in a calmer tone.
Some people who initially thought Kanade Himuro was suddenly going crazy because of her period now felt guilty. They regretted the insults that had flashed through their minds. Such a good teacher, and they had dared to mock her. They were truly awful.
Of course, not everyone thought this way. Some gal girls and students who weren't interested in studying felt annoyed, as if they had swallowed a fly. Teachers in other classes didn't care much, letting students learn or not as they pleased, as long as they weren't too loud. Why was it different here?
Ho Fei-yu looked at Kanade Himuro on the stage and silently gave her a thumbs-up. Although her fetish was a bit unusual, it was commendable in a world like this.
Aside from this small interlude, the afternoon passed uneventfully.
The three gal girls were sensible enough not to trouble Ho Fei-yu again. Of course, it was also possible that Izumi Nogami was still stuck to her chair. In any case, Ho Fei-yu didn't see Izumi Nogami move during the breaks. She sat quietly, chatting with the other two gal girls, though her expression wasn't very pleasant.
After school, the expected confrontation with the gal girls blocking the school gate didn't happen. He, Hanawa Amakawa, and Yūshin Aonoi left the school safely. Although he didn't know what the three gal girls were thinking, it was good that no trouble occurred.
"Izumi, everyone's gone. Hurry up and take off your skirt and put this set on."
Minako Sanada looked at the classroom, which was now empty except for the three of them. She reached into her backpack, pulled out a spare skirt, and handed it to Izumi Nogami. She had asked her housekeeper to bring it at noon, but she hadn't found a good opportunity to give it to Izumi Nogami to change into, so she had to wait until everyone had left.
"Izumi, what do you think happened? We definitely put glue on his seat, but why are you stuck instead, and he's completely fine? It's so weird~"
The dark-skinned gal girl, Sae Hinata, asked, leaning on Izumi Nogami's desk.
"I don't know why either!"
Izumi Nogami was about to change her skirt when her good friend's words suddenly irritated her. She turned to scratch her head, completely unable to understand.
"Could he be the legendary Superman, Flash Thunder, or Bronze Man!"
The dark-skinned gal girl was musing aimlessly when she suddenly thought of the superheroes she had watched recently. She looked up and exclaimed in surprise.
"..." x2
"Sae, stop watching those sci-fi movies."
Minako Sanada rubbed her forehead helplessly.
Izumi Nogami also nodded in agreement.
"Then tell me, how did he switch the chairs right in front of everyone's eyes!"
The dark-skinned gal girl firmly believed she was right.
Minako Sanada and Izumi Nogami fell silent. They didn't know what to say for a moment, but they didn't agree with Sae Hinata's wild idea.
Seeing that her two good friends didn't believe her, the dark-skinned gal girl decided in her heart that she would find proof that Ho Fei-yu was a superhero!
"Alright, enough of this. Let's hurry up and help Izumi take off her skirt."
Minako Sanada changed the subject. Izumi Nogami really did need help. She had been struggling for a long time, unable to get out of the skirt. The position where her butt was glued was too tricky, causing the skirt to get stuck on her hips every time, preventing her from taking it off.
The three of them struggled with all their might. Finally, they had no choice but to take out scissors and cut the skirt before Izumi Nogami successfully broke free.
"Ugh! I'm so angry! That damned Ho Fei-yu!"
Izumi Nogami changed into the new skirt. Her eyes fixed on the ruined old skirt. Her already red eyes widened, as if fire was about to shoot out of them.
Regardless of whether Ho Fei-yu actually did it or not, Izumi Nogami pinned the blame on him.
"It's your fault, Izumi, for not asking for help from the Big Sister group."
The dark-skinned gal girl said, looking at the angry Izumi Nogami.
"Hmph! If I can't even handle a small Ho Fei-yu, it will damage my reputation as a gal."
"But Izumi, you've already lost twice to him~"
"It was just a mistake. I'll succeed next time."
Izumi Nogami was stubbornly defensive.
"Izumi, stop bothering him, or else..."
"Minako, stop talking. A gal doesn't let a grudge go."
Izumi Nogami interrupted Minako Sanada's advice. Her eyes burned with fierce flames.
"Sigh."
"..."
On the other side, after not seeing his Auntie Mitsuko for a day, Ho Fei-yu stood outside Mitsuko Hazama's door with an excited heart. Just as he was about to knock, he noticed the silence at Akari Hatsufuji's house in the corner of his eye. Remembering Shizuku Hatsufuji's instruction, he realized he hadn't spent time with Auntie Akari for several days. He lowered the hand he had just raised and turned to walk toward Akari Hatsufuji's house.
