章節 60: Sound Changes III

As always, the lecture room was empty when I stepped in. Only Professor Fuku sat at her desk in front of the whiteboard. She stared down at the hologram projecting out of the desk, yet her eyes stayed still.

I stood next to her and called her, "Professor Fuku?"

She jumped on her chair. "Miyahara! You shouldn't do that, you could've given me a heart attack."

It had been a while since I had seen her eyes open that wide. "I'm sorry," I smiled.

"Don't worry," she chuckled and stared at me. "You seem happier than usual."

"Well, it's finally presentation day after almost four years."

"Yeah…," she sighed and looked down at the desk, yet her smile remained.

"You look somewhat off."

"Because it's the last day both for you as a student and for me as a professor in this institution."

"Right. Do you have a new job in mind?"
