"Finally finished!"
Reaching out a slightly trembling hand, Shinichi solemnly put a deck of word cards into the box, looking up at the sky with a smile on his face.
"Next, going to school to complete the last step..."
Supporting his tired and stiff body, letting his empty coffee cup just lay on the table, he grabbed his school bag and box, and staggered out the door.
...
When Furuhashi walked into the classroom, all she saw was Shinichi lying on the table like a corpse.
"Ahhhhh! Asada-san, what's wrong with you? Your body is like being hollowed out, did you do something bad last night?!"
Shinichi lifted his head with difficulty, and gave her a weak look at her who was confused: "I came out to fight evil and maintain world peace, and you dare say that I have done something bad? You are against our Kamen Rider family!"
"Where are the Kamen Riders?" Furuhashi groaned reflexively, then sat down next to him, and asked very worriedly, "You stayed up all night? Your dark circles are as heavy as President Shirogane."
"That's really bad… I don't want to be like the president who looks terrible with vicious eyes." Shinichi wailed, he's not that handsome, if he had dark circles under his eyes, he probably wouldn't even be as good as Shirogane, could only be an existence on the same boat as Fuutarou.
Fuutarou looked him up and down in the morning, and kindly advised him to hold on... If not for his lack of energy, Shinichi would have taken out all the books in his school bag and smashed them on his head.
He stayed up late doing business, why are you two thinking so perverted?
Unfortunately Shinichi doesn't even have the power to justify his name now. The side effects of staying up late for the first time were more serious than he had imagined.
"...Asada-san, did you stay up late because of us?"
As if confirming something, Furuhashi bit her lip, and asked softly.
Shinichi glanced at her, and turned his face expressionlessly.
"Don't guess, it's just that I read all of Akiyama Shinobu's Original Sin series yesterday, because it's so good, so I accidentally lost track of time, it has nothing to do with you."
"But, didn't you just say to fight evil..."
"Hah? I forgot, please ignore my nonsense."
"Then you said yesterday that the adventure we were looking forward to starting today was..."
"Ahhh~ Asada Shinichi is in standby mode now, he can't hear anything~" Shouting wildly, Shinichi held his head with his hands, and entered turtle mode: "Next, please treat me as a dead person."
Furuhashi couldn't help but laugh: "Asada-san is still as clumsy and tsundere as ever."
"Stop babbling, I only have embarrassment, how can I be considered a tsundere."
"Didn't you go into standby mode?"
"When you say my name, it turns me on! All right, I'll take a break. If you don't do anything, try not to talk to me."
"Ha..." Furuhashi watched helplessly as she leaned against the table to rest again, feeling a little sad and happy at the same time.
(He must be pushing himself again because of our business... And he still doesn't admit it, he has been pretending to cover up his kindness there, Asada-san is really stupid...)
Furuhashi once again refreshed her understanding of Shinichi's awkwardness. Before lying, at least tidy up your messy hair and tired expression, okay? And while explaining, his description grew darker, almost like admitting he was making excuses.
Even though she was a little curious about what he did for them all night, Furuhashi was most worried about what she could do for Shinichi like this.
After all, she is Shinichi's assistant educator!
She had said yesterday that she would be helping him with matters other than teaching, so now was the time for her to show it!
In order for Shinichi to regain his energy in a stable manner and sleep without hindrance, this is Furuhashi's task today, and also that of an assistant!
Silently clenching her fist in front of her chest, Furuhashi nodded firmly.
"Okay! Don't let anyone wake Asada-san!"
...
First session in the morning, English class.
As soon as the English teacher came in, he saw Shinichi sleeping on the table, he frowned, and was about to speak.
Furuhashi rushed over like a whirlwind, and whispered to the teacher politely: "Sensei, Asada-san studied English very late yesterday, can you let him go?"
The English teacher gave her a strange look, then glanced back and forth between the two of them ambiguously, and finally didn't say anything, but instead patted her on the shoulder excitedly, asking her to return to her seat.
Furuhashi breathed a sigh of relief, the English teacher is really a good person.
It's just that this feeling of missing something is an illusion?
...
Second session in the morning, Japanese history.
A middle-aged man with a bald head and rat-like teeth entered. In the middle of class, he finds Shinichi sleeping soundly at his desk.
Immediately, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and a white chalk flew out of his hand like lightning, the tip of the trajectory that was not clearly visible was the forehead.
This is the unique skill of a Japanese history teacher! With one shot, when the chalk actually shot off, the sleeping students would definitely wake up!
No student dared to sleep in his class, because chalk is justice, and no one can escape punishment.
But he didn't expect that his complacent action would collapse at this moment!
Two pens jumped out from the side, like chopsticks held by a martial arts expert. The two pens caught the chalk still in the air, and stopped it ten centimeters from Shinichi's forehead, and could no longer advance an inch.
Furuhashi seemed to exhale nervously, holding the chalk firmly with one hand, and quickly picking up a white paper with bold letters on it with the other.
『Sensei, Asada-san was reading Japanese history very late yesterday, could you please let him go? 』
The Japanese history teacher was speechless.
In the end, he lowered his head and sighed, cupped his hands towards Furuhashi, then continued his lecture with a disappointed face.
Although Furuhashi felt a little sorry for the teacher, she always thought that this action was inexplicable, she used to sleep, always couldn't sleep in this class, today was revenge, right?
It's just that the weird looks from her classmates from time to time made her feel like she was missing something.
....
In the third period, the teacher ignored Shinichi and let him sleep peacefully for a while until he left the class.
"Bastard, what can you do to me!"
"Then hit me!"
There was a completely inexplicable argument behind the class.
Furuhashi's expression changed, seeing Shinichi started to ramble a bit, as if he was going to fight, she quickly slapped the table and got up, walked towards the two students who were arguing, and said in a calm and agitated tone.
"Sorry, although I don't know what you're arguing about, but can you please keep the class quiet? There are still people who need to rest!"
However, the two people who were arguing ignored her and continued talking.
Furuhashi raised her eyebrows, she placed her hands on their shoulders, and a wide smile appeared on her face.
"Please, be quiet, will you?"
An oppressive feeling like an abyss surged towards them, which made the two of them instantly freeze and not dare to move.
Furuhashi repeated with a smile: "Can?"
The two students came back to their senses and started shaking.
"Y-Yes!"
"S-Sorry! We won't fight anymore! Party strife is dead, loudest harem!"
It was then that Furuhashi let go of her hand, and then they fled the classroom as if fleeing for their lives.
"Furuhashi-san is so scary——"
"I didn't expect Furuhashi-san to be a member of the DD party—"
"What nonsense are you talking..." Furuhashi muttered grievously, "I just asked them to shut up, what's so scary… And I don't support the end of the harem either."
Even though she didn't know what they were talking about, Furuhashi didn't care, and she forgot about it in the blink of an eye.
Looking back at Shinichi, seeing that he hadn't woken up yet, and was still tired but relaxed in his sleep, she patted her chest in relief.
"It doesn't matter! Let's keep working harder!"
She didn't even think that protecting others without being noticed would be such a fun thing!
(It seems I can't always call Asada-san stupid...)
Humming softly and standing beside Shinichi, Furuhashi supported her chin with one hand, and smiled happily.
