Have you seen Kitahara-sensei?
"He's with the second-year students, I think they're in the same class as Tenkai-senpai," Kurosawa Maki said.
"Teacher Kitahara isn't a homeroom teacher, so there's no requirement for her to follow any particular class."
Kurosawa Maki said with a grin, "I get it. Just like Kurosaki-sensei, you're superfluous, just here to make up the numbers, right?"
"Ma Gui Yi Yi"
Kuno Tachibana was surprised by the low pitch of his voice.
Her close friends seemed to sense the same oddity, because they could all tell that Kurosawa Maki's words were no different from a joke.
Li Hua couldn't possibly not have noticed.
Kuno Tachibana was already used to being pointed at and talked about by others, but when she heard Kitahara-sensei being called "redundant," she couldn't control the anger rising in her heart.
"I'm so sorry, I was just joking." Kurosawa Maki hid behind Nagasawa Mia, looking a little scared.
Kuno Tachibana also realized what was happening, and sighed slightly, saying:
"I'm not angry, I just think these kinds of remarks are childish, as childish as saying a university professor knows nothing. Sigh."
That means Senior Rain Guardian isn't here.
"Haven't you spoken to Kitahara-sensei yet today?" Nagasawa Miya asked as they walked towards the restroom, looking at the signs.
Kuno Tachibana curled her lip, as if she didn't want to talk, or perhaps she didn't know how to speak.
"not yet."
“We can call Kitahara-sensei over; there’s always a bus ride,” Nagasawa Miya said.
Kuno Tachibana suddenly felt a surge of irritation and muttered a complaint, "You don't know anything, so stop thinking about this."
"Don't you like Kitahara-sensei?" Nagasawa Miya asked bluntly.
Goto Yu's face flushed red instantly.
Kuno Tachibana's eye twitched, and she said in a deliberately cold tone, "I'm not the kind of girl who's obsessed with one apple and won't let go."
"Really? Aren't you the kind of girl who rushes headlong into things?" Nagasawa Miyabi stared straight at her, seemingly not at all indifferent.
"It always hurts when you hit a wall; you don't even understand such a simple principle."
Kuno Tachibana said with a mocking expression,
"Self-preservation is the top priority."
Miyako Nagasawa and Maki Kurosawa exchanged a glance but said nothing more.
The girls entered the restroom; it was clean and the air was fairly fresh.
"Oh, they're all here."
While washing up at the sink, she happened to run into Eto and Takahashi, who had come together with her. The senior student took the initiative to greet them.
Kami Takahashi's dress had many water stains left from washing her hands, while Kana Eto's dress looked impeccable, without any water stains.
Kuno Tachibana nodded and went directly into the empty cubicle.
"Do you have any personal activities planned?" Kana Eto asked.
Nagasawa Miyako wasn't in a hurry; she was just there to keep them company: "Yes, I've already made plans."
"It was my plan!" Kurosawa Maki shouted from inside the cubicle, having just taken off her skirt and underwear.
“Yes, it was her plan,” Nagasawa Miyako said.
"Perfect timing! Um, if it's convenient, shall we go together?"
Kana Eto clasped her hands together in front of her chest.
"We're all in the brass band, so it would be best if we could build some camaraderie."
"Huh? Is this alright?" Nagasawa Miyako appeared very humble in front of her senior. "I think Ma Gui's arrangement is terrible."
"It's not bad at all!" Kurosawa Maki was so angry she almost stopped crying.
Miya Nagasawa replied evasively, "Okay, okay—"
"No, it's okay. Jia Mei and I won't hold anyone back!"
Kana Eto clenched her fist and declared with determination, "As long as we all work together, there's nothing we can't conquer in the future!"
"Hmm."
"Oh, it's okay if you refuse. I know it's awkward to ask to hang out together at the last minute."
Kami Takahashi stands with one hand on her hip.
"If you've made up your mind, send us a message tonight. I'm off, Chanel."
"Wait a minute."
Chapter 362, Section 361: The Hokkaido Girl on an Airplane (Part 2 of 6) >>
Kana Eto took a deep breath; the air was filled with the scent of lemon.
"I have something very important to tell you. You are all the future backbone of the wind band, and I think you all deserve to know."
Miya Nagasawa blinked in surprise, and even Kami Takahashi next to her seemed confused.
"That's all for now, bye-bye." Kana Eto pulled Kami Takahashi away.
After a while, the sound of girls flushing water could be heard one after another, and the doors were opened one by one.
“Eto-senpai said she wants to go out and have fun with us.” Even though they had already heard it, Nagasawa Miya repeated it.
"Not bad."
Kuno Tachibana stood in front of the sink, washed his hands, and then tossed his bangs, shaking his head left and right to check where they were messy.
It was obvious to everyone that the minister was trying his best to build a good relationship with them.
"Do you want to come along?" Nagasawa Miya asked Tachibana.
Kuno Tachibana said softly, "Anything's fine. Eto-senpai and Takahashi-senpai are both really nice. It would be great if we could be good friends." She added, "Besides, she said she has something very important to tell us."
Miyako Nagasawa pondered for a moment and then said,
"It should be related to the brass band."
Kirishima Mai frowned and subconsciously looked at Kuno Tachibana. The two looked at each other at the same time, reacting quickly.
It seems that Eto-senpai must have learned about Kitahara-sensei's impending departure.
"Is it related to the brass band?"
Kurosawa Maki, her hands still unwashed, pressed them against her chin, then clenched her right fist and struck her left palm, before covering her eyes and saying...
"As expected, when money gets too much, one's Dao heart becomes chaotic! Knowing they couldn't hide it from us, they simply joined forces with us!"
"Huh?" Nagasawa Miya thought she was stupid.
"Doesn't the brass band have a ton of money right now? As long as they get along well with us second-year students, especially Li Hua, misappropriating funds won't be a problem!"
Kuno Tachibana said dismissively, "It's almost time, let's go."
Ignoring Kurosawa Maki's arguments, the group walked straight out.
"Hey! Wait for me!"
"Would you like to buy some drinks?"
Can I bring drinks on the plane?
"I don't know, this is my first time on a plane."
"First time? Then how did you and Yu come all the way from Kumamoto to Hakodate?"
"Shinkansen, bus, ferry."
Wow! You two have steel butts!
"what?"
As the deep roar of the engines gradually intensified, the aircraft, like a giant bird poised to take flight, trembled slightly.
The nose of the plane lifted slightly, and a light, weightless feeling instantly washed over me. The buildings, roads, and fields on the ground shrank in an instant, and the roaring sound in my ears gradually became steady.
Eight out of ten of Shenxu's students have never been on an airplane.
Therefore, at the moment the plane takes off, you can hear various primitive sounds coming from inside the cabin.
"Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!"
"It really flew! It really flew!!!"
"Wow, my body! It feels so heavy! There's a female ghost pressing down on me!"
"Read more books! This is the result of the combined effects of acceleration, inertia, gravity, and lift!"
"Mom! Did you see that?! I'm flying in the sky!"
The exclamations of Hokkaido students kept ringing in my ears. Many of the window seats were chosen by playing rock-paper-scissors, since no one wanted to give up the chance to enjoy the view from the window.
Those who know each other will watch for several tens of minutes first, and then switch seats with their friends, leaving the "lone wolf" to enjoy the view silently.
Kitahara Hakuba watched the signal on his phone screen disappear in an instant. Luckily, he had some downloaded anime, "Crayon Shin-chan," to watch and kill time.
Outside the window, there was the unique tranquility and vastness of the high altitude. Through the porthole, the clouds spread out around me like an endless white ocean.
In the economy class, with its 3-3 seating arrangement, I heard Kana Eto's exclamation from next to me; she was filming a video on her phone.
Kitahara Hakuba was still sitting in the aisle, and Takahashi Kami was sitting in the middle.
Although Kitahara Hakuba also wanted to be selfish and enjoy the scenery alone, he was a teacher and couldn't refuse his female students' request.
Kana Eto excitedly said:
"Thank you so much, Kitahara-sensei! Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to find my seat. This is my first time on an airplane!"
"She lost every single game of rock-paper-scissors with her classmates, which is an absurdly low probability," Takahashi Kami said with a laugh.
Kitahara Hakuba asked curiously, "Can we see the sea now?"
"it is ready!"
