"Great, finally I can get off work..."
SilverShull clapped for himself, glanced at Latis who was still lost in thought, hesitated for a moment, then picked up his bag and walked out the door without disturbing him.
"He must still be pondering the difficult points in the course. Such a hardworking student is truly rare these days… Sigh, as for my identity, I'll ask him to keep it a secret when I see him next week. I hope he won't report me, although teaching at three schools simultaneously does sound incredible…"
She walked out of the school gate, hesitated for half a minute looking at the restaurants on the street, and finally took a deep breath and started walking towards her apartment.
Eating in Tianhai Street costs at least a dozen gold coins, and going to the outer city is too tiring. I'll just go home and eat some broccoli...
Suddenly, Yin Xiuer's expression shifted as he sensed a message appearing in his beacon.
She projected her consciousness onto her beacon, where, outside the bustling group chat channel, a lone message lay. She clicked on it and glanced at it.
[Ye Ye: Teacher, teacher, I'm reviewing the lessons from the past few weeks and I've realized I've missed a lot. Could you come to my house and tutor me? I can pay you a tutoring fee!]
Yin Xiuer's gaze lingered on the words "tutoring fee" for a moment, then he sighed, rubbed his rumbling stomach, and sent a reply.
[Silver Hugh: It's rare to see someone so ambitious... I remember you rent room 999 in the Mage Tower? Hmm, I'll head over now.]
[Ye Ye: Yay!]
SilverShull disconnected the beacon, scratched his head, found a coffee shop's restroom to change back into his usual clothes—a shirt and vest—and then walked out of the inner city with his briefcase.
……
"Mage Tower 999... Oh, it's not far from the entrance to the spire's perimeter wall."
Silver Hugh adjusted his black-rimmed glasses, glanced back at the majestic roof of the Golden Hall, and then activated the small summoning array in front of him.
The summoning array lit up slightly, and a voice came from within.
"Oh, teacher, you came so fast! Wait for me, I'll open the door right away!"
"I'm so hungry..."
Silversher shook his head, patted his flat stomach again, and watched as the door to the mage tower opened in front of him.
Ye Ye peeked out from inside, revealing a sweet smile, and said:
"Teacher Yin, please come in!"
"It's hard to believe you'd bring up studying on your own initiative..." Silver Squire muttered as he placed his bag beside the sofa, squatted down, and pulled out his magic notebook from the bag, saying:
"How's your first spell design coming along? I saw your magic runes last time; they were drawn quite well, but the logic was completely incoherent. How could you add the charm to humans to the tentacle impact rune? Those two have different effects. Is there something wrong with your thinking...?"
"Ahhh, teacher!" Yaya screamed, clutching her head, and said sadly:
"Stop the torture! Stop the torture! I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll go make you some tea!"
Silver Hugh paused, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice:
"Could I have a few cookies too? Thank you."
"Okay!" Ye Ye chuckled and ran into the kitchen. After a while, she poked her head out again and asked:
"Teacher, teacher, is black tea okay?"
“It’s possible…” Yin Xiuer scratched his head as he watched Ye Ye quickly shrink back.
Something feels off. Is it just my imagination? ...
She sighed, opened her magic notebook, and continued to think:
"Never mind, the biggest problem is that she wants to study every night. I hope she's not just trying to fool me..."
……
"Teacher, the tea is here!"
"Thank you."
Yin Xiuer watched as Ye Ye, who had just put down her tea, jumped onto the sofa and started swinging her legs while staring at her, subconsciously touched the fake beard on her face and asked in confusion:
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with me?"
"No, no! I'm waiting for you to clear your throat so you can give me some extra lessons!"
“Okay…” Silver Shul picked up a biscuit, took a small bite, moistened it with saliva in her mouth, chewed it lightly a couple of times, and then swallowed it. Then she picked up her teacup.
What is she looking at every night? Is there something wrong with my makeup? Or...?
As I took a sip of black tea, a slight dizziness instantly washed over me.
"This is……"
With trembling hands, Yin Xiuer placed the teacup back on the table, and sighed helplessly in his increasingly hazy consciousness.
"So this is the problem with the child! I should have given him a couple more cookies..."
She slumped helplessly beside the sofa and fell into a coma.
"Great!"
Ye Ye immediately jumped off the sofa, helped Yin Xiuer up, and leaned her against the sofa. While taking out her drawing tools and sketchbook, she said with great interest:
"Teacher Yin truly lives up to her reputation as my chosen bottom! Even when she's unconscious, she's still so adorable... Ugh! My desire is rising! I'm going to draw, I'm going to draw, I'm going to draw, I'm going to draw!"
……
……
"Huh? get out of class is over?"
Latis suddenly snapped out of his daze, looked at the empty classroom, and scratched his head.
"As expected, biochemistry, environmental science, and materials science are still not for me... If it weren't for wanting to familiarize myself with the school so I could inquire about the researchers working on the grenade technique, I wouldn't even want to come..."
He shook his head, slung his backpack over his shoulder, and walked out of the classroom.
"But it seems we don't need to ask around anymore. Since Teacher Yin is also teaching at Bogu Academy, he should have heard of this project..."
Latis walked out of the school gate, looked around, and headed towards a traditional Londian restaurant.
"Speaking of which, I used to dream of being a teacher when I was a kid, but unfortunately, the older I got, the less I liked children... In order to avoid going down the path of beating up kids, I eventually gave up..."
He sighed, glanced at the sign at the door that read "No. 41 Tianhai Street, Mu'en Family Restaurant, Breakfast Served All Day," pushed open the door, and called out:
"A traditional Londian breakfast, without baked beans and black pudding, please!"
……
"Seize the young master?"
"Fifteen gold whites."
Latis was silent for a moment, then suddenly felt that the toast he had just eaten was no longer made of flour, but rather of gold dust!
"I'm a student, can you give me a discount?"
He took a deep breath and asked without changing his expression.
"No, that won't do." The shop owner, wiping the plates, said with a hearty smile:
"We're just making money off students."
"……Grass!"
Latis sadly handed over fifteen gold coins, sighed, and walked out of the restaurant.
"I'm never coming here again. I'd rather stay home and drink protein powder..."
He was on his way home when he suddenly felt his beacon move, so he stopped and looked at the message in the beacon.
[Ye Ye: Are you free now? Come be a model, we're waiting for you!]
"Seriously, sis?"
Latis hesitated for a moment, but then, remembering that he had already taken her money, he shook his head helplessly.
[Latis: Where are you going? I'll be there in a bit.]
[Night After Night: Mage Tower No. 999!]
Latis disconnected the beacon and walked towards the outer city, silently reciting to himself:
"Hopefully she doesn't really want to be a nude model, otherwise someone will have to adjust their flexible moral bottom line again..."
……
……
"Hehe, the teacher's hands, the teacher's waist..."
"This pose is absolutely perfect!"
"Hmm, it looks good arranged like this, I'll draw it!"
……
……
"Is this the place?"
Latis scratched his head and touched a magic circle that looked like a doorbell.
The vibrations of the magic essence emitted a faint light, and then Ye Ye's voice came from within.
"Latis? I'm here, wait for me!"
The doors to the mage tower slowly opened. Latis exhaled, exchanged a glance with Yaya, whose face was flushed, and walked in with a puzzled look.
"This place looks pretty big... Wow! Gintoki?"
Latis stared in disbelief at Ginshull, who was posing like a "sleeping Kogoro Mouri," and said in utter shock:
What are you doing?!
"Hehe, don't worry, Teacher Yin won't wake up so soon." Nighty's eyes gleamed with the light of a dream come true. She pulled out a piece of paper, quickly sketched a draft, and said:
"I'll change Yin-laoshi's position later, and then you can use this position to cooperate!"
Latis took the sketch, looked at the unrestrained sitting posture and the gesture of stroking Gintoki's head as he lay on his side, remained silent for a while, and then couldn't help but say:
Are you sure you're okay with this?
"Hey, hey..." Ye Ye gripped her paintbrush hesitantly, struggling for a long time before finally whispering:
"I'll apologize to him afterwards... Teacher Yin is a really nice person, and he always takes good care of me. He... he shouldn't be too angry, right..."
