Sayaka Akai walked out of the study and went straight to prepare dinner.
Kurosawa Mitsuru pricked up his ears and listened to the footsteps outside fading away. Finally, when the maid left, he picked up the water on the table and drank it all.
"Take a rest."
After drinking half a glass of water, Kurosawa Mitsuru leaned back and stretched.
"rest?"
Shifengyuan Mirai turned her head to the side, her beautiful eyes were calm and colorless, no emotion or thoughts could be seen.
"I've been quite tired these past two days. Miss Akai is not here, so I'll take a break first."
Kurosawa Hikaru nodded and said as a matter of course.
"It will be another half an hour before your break." Shifengyuan Mirai was a little dissatisfied with his behavior of stopping.
"Don't be so rigid. I'm resting, so should you?" Kurosawa Mitsuru spread his hands.
In fact, he was not tired. On the contrary, because of the leg skills, archery, parkour and other things rewarded by the system, his body became much stronger and more energetic.
The reason why he wanted to take a break was just to let this student rest for a while longer.
Besides, for the weekend date, he had an idea to try out
"… "
Hearing this, Shifengyuan Mirai opened his mouth, tightly gripped the pen in his hand, and was somewhat hesitant and shaken.
Rest, this is a very tempting word for her.
"Have you ever practiced archery?"
At this moment, Kurosawa Mitsuru reached out and forcibly pulled the pen out of her hand.
"What do you want to do?" Seeing this, Shifengyuan Mirai immediately waved his hand and forcibly stopped such physical contact.
Even though her arms were long and slender, she was very strong, but Kurosawa Hikaru didn't use much force.
"Have you ever practiced archery?"
After taking away her pen, he successfully stopped her from studying. However, Kurosawa Hikaru didn't do anything else but just looked at her hands.
I have to say, her hands are very beautiful. Even without embellishments such as manicures, they still look beautiful.
The skin is delicate and white, and the hands are slender and long. At first glance, you can tell that the hands are pampered and well-maintained.
"… "
Without a pen in his hand, Shifengyuan Mirai froze for a moment, not quite used to it.
Her life is planned by time. What time to do what has been decided long ago.
That's right, the sudden break, which lasted longer than planned and expected, made her a little at a loss.
"I see marks between your fingers. They are from long-term pressure on arrows."
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Kurosawa Hikaru's eyes scanned between her fingers.
"What day of the week do you practice archery? From what I understand, you practice dancing on Monday, study on Tuesday, violin on Wednesday, study on Thursday, and tea ceremony on Friday."
Noticing that she still didn't speak, Kurosawa Hikaru continued to ask.
Seeing him nagging, Sifengyuan Mirai simply ignored him and waited for him to stop.
"Where do you practice archery?"
"Here?"
“How much rest time do you have every week?”
"… "
"Please say something. Don't you feel bored if you don't say a word during the break? We have less than half an hour to chat." Kurosawa Mitsuru felt helpless.
"I don't have time to rest." Shifengyuan Mirai finally spoke.
"I'm tutoring you in your studies. Doesn't the time between 6:30 and 7:30 count as a break?" Kurosawa Mitsuru paused after hearing this. He felt sad and a little surprised at the same time.
That, for him, was a break from his part-time job at home.
"Not really." Sifengyuan Mirai said indifferently.
"Why? It only takes you 10 minutes to eat, but you spend the other 50 minutes in your room, right?" Kurosawa Hikaru was curious.
He suddenly realized that although he had known this student for more than a year, he knew very little about him.
"During those 50 minutes, I have to apply body lotion, do daily flexibility stretching, and finally take a shower."
Shifengyuan Mirai's red eyes were fixed on Kurosawa Hikaru.
"Why are you staring at me? Relax a little." Noticing her direct gaze, Kurosawa Mitsuru soothed her.
"I'm wondering what the hell you're up to. You're being paid to tutor me, and if you're being passive like this and my mom finds out, you'll be fired."
Shifengyuan Mirai didn't care about his appearance at all and just said calmly.
There is absolutely no possibility that she has any relationship with this teacher.
When she is over with the college entrance examination, this teacher will disappear from her side and be replaced by a new teacher, just like before.
"If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, how would your mother know if Miss Akai isn't here?"
Kurosawa Hikaru naturally knew this, but he was not worried at all.
"This room is monitored. She will find it if she checks it."
Hearing this, Shifengyuan Mirai turned his head and looked at the wall beside him.
"!" Kurosawa Hikaru followed his gaze and saw a surveillance camera in the corner of the bookshelf. He was shocked.
The next moment, he was no longer sitting lazily, but straightened up and bowed his head at the table.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier that there was surveillance?"
Kurosawa Hikaru picked up the notebook again, pretended to be serious, and spoke in a low voice.
"I thought you knew that already."
Seeing that he was suddenly startled, Shifengyuan Mirai's mouth corners curved up into an imperceptible arc.
"So you just kept silent because you couldn't understand why I was still slacking off even though I knew there were surveillance cameras?"
Kurosawa Hikaru had sharp eyesight and noticed her gloating smile. Suddenly, he understood a lot of things.
"Yes." Shifengyuan Mirai picked up the pen again.
"Is your mother a control freak? Not only does it have a maid to supervise, but she even installed surveillance cameras." Kurosawa Mitsuru was speechless.
To be honest, although he has been coaching for more than a year, he has never noticed the surveillance, and the camera is quite hidden.
Ultimately, it was because he took it for granted that Sayaka Akai's supervision was the only surveillance.
"This is to avoid accidents when I'm alone with someone else while the maid is away."
"What kind of accident could there be? This is the desire for control. When your teachers, ID card, residence, mobile phone, and even hometown, all your information is investigated clearly, if anyone dares to endanger your safety, he will be caught in the act."
"Then why you just took my pen... Oh, because you were too stupid and didn't know there were surveillance cameras."
Sitting at the table and pretending to be serious, Shifengyuan Mirai became much more talkative and said a lot more.
In the final analysis, it was because of Kurosawa Mitsuru's behavior of taking her pen by force that he became a handle.
As long as she tells her mother that the teacher is not teaching seriously, combined with the surveillance evidence, he will be fired.
"I just took your pen. I didn't hurt you."
Kurosawa Mitsuru was very confident that he had thought carefully before taking action. If this was considered an injury, it would be an exaggeration.
"How come there is no harm?"
"Where's the harm?"
"I was not injured physically, but my young mind was seriously hurt."
"You're going too far."
"Not at all. You scared me."
"Are you so timid?"
"You are too tough."
"… "
Kurosawa Mitsuru wanted to refute this statement, but he didn't know how to say it. It seemed that this was indeed the truth.
Just now, he saw that the young lady was numb and motionless, so he took coercive measures.
"Nothing to say, eh?"
Seeing that he was choking on his words, Sifengyuan Mirai raised the corners of his mouth in amusement, with an expression of a winner.
