Without Alona, ​​I can only use the airdrop system.

To Xia Lai's teacher:

Ghenna is hosting a special banquet tonight at 7 p.m. and hereby invites teachers to attend. The location is attached after the main text.

Gehenna's Palace of Ten Thousand Demons

[Date]

A special banquet?

After reading the contents of the letter, the teacher suddenly realized what had happened.

Just as Kiriko Onishima said, Hina hadn't contacted her during this time because she was preparing a surprise for her.

Thinking of this, the teacher, in a good mood, couldn't help but hum a soft hum, and even the heavy work in her hands seemed much easier.

Meanwhile, at Gehenna Academy, in an abandoned teaching building.

"call......"

Hina arrived at the innermost room of the school building, where a grand piano covered in moss stood.

Although it looks old, it still works perfectly and the pronunciation is very accurate.

Since discovering this place recently, Hina comes here to practice piano whenever she has time.

The reason for practicing was Makoto's idea. She said it was to celebrate her return and because the Valentine's Day party hadn't been held yet, so they decided to hold it today.

As for the piano, it was Makoto who suggested it, and she even said that she could invite the teacher to come and watch. Although she didn't know what Makoto was up to, in order to give the teacher a surprise, Hina took time to practice the piano and prepare for the banquet.

In addition, the daily disciplinary committee work left Hina with no time to visit her teacher, and to keep it a secret, she didn't tell her the truth.

It wasn't until today, when I personally sent an email to the teacher in the name of the Pandemonium, that the teacher became aware of the situation.

With most of the recent preparations nearly complete, Hina finally had some free time, but she still went to the abandoned school building to practice the piano.

After practicing countless times and confirming that there were no problems, Hina took out her phone to check the time.

"Perfect timing, let's head to the food supply department ahead of time."

After walking for a while, Hina arrived at the cafeteria.

"Ah, Hina, you're here!" Kaede was very excited to see Hina arrive.

"Welcome, Hina-senpai!" Julie greeted Hina as well.

"Hmm." Hina looked at Kaede and Julie, who were still busy, and asked, "Do you need my help?"

“Yes, we do.” Fengxiang said with a wry smile, “We happen to be short of a cook, so we can leave the pre-processing of the ingredients to Julie.”

"Understood." Hina walked naturally to a stove, briefly asked about Fuka's requirements, and then started helping with the cooking.

Hina is so skilled because she often goes to Kaede's place to learn cooking when she has free time. Sometimes when Kaede is too busy, Hina will come to help. From being an assistant at the beginning to being the head chef now.

Even Kaede was quite surprised by Hina's learning ability. Before long, she learned many dishes from her, and the final results were all quite good.

At the same time, because Hina often went to the food department to learn cooking skills or help out in the kitchen, the food research club found it difficult to cook for Kaede, and Julie was no longer forced to take on the task of cooking all the time.

Kaede naturally noticed that after Hina's frequent visits, the probability of her being kidnapped by the Gourmet Research Institute decreased significantly, and there were fewer incidents in the cafeteria. In fact, after the assessment, the cafeteria even received a significant increase in funding. As a result, she welcomed Hina to her place even more, and the relationship between the two changed from familiarity in the original work to harmony now.

Of course, this event was also widely reported by the Pandemonium, which resulted in a surge of culinary learning at the Gehenna Academy.

Getting back to the main point, several hours later, after Hina had helped prepare all the dishes for the food department, she had a little free time to rest.

At that moment, Hina seemed to realize something.

"Haruna, stop hiding, come out now."

"Huh!?" Fengxiang and Julie were both stunned; neither of them had noticed someone entering the cafeteria!

"Heh, you still can't hide it from the discerning eyes of the disciplinary committee chairman."

At this moment, Ji Tou Si emerged from a corner.

"Haruna, what are you doing here!?" Kaede was also confused.

After all, this was the first time she had ever seen the four members of the Gourmet Research Club stand here so brazenly, even with Hina present.

"Don't you think it's a waste for Maple to accept your commission to prepare various dishes only for the people of the Pandemonium and the Disciplinary Committee to taste?"

"So, you also want to attend this special banquet?" Hina interrupted Haruna's explanation.

"If we can eat the dishes that Kaede-san specially prepared for the banquet, then our trip will have been worthwhile." Haruna maintained her composure even after Hina learned of her purpose.

“Perfect timing, I was planning to make a special Valentine’s Day cake for my teacher today.” Hina looked at Haruna. “Since you two are knowledgeable about food, you should also know how to make it. Could you please help me out?”

"As a reward for your help, I can grant you permission to enter in the name of the Speaker of the Pandemonium."

If it were the old Hina, she would probably have been more concerned about whether they would cause trouble or kidnap Kaede when she wasn't paying attention.

However, since interacting with her teacher and witnessing adult communication and interaction in Niki's world, Hina's understanding of interpersonal relationships has deepened.

In other words, Hina felt that she had "grown up".

"!!!" Kaede and Julie looked at Hina in astonishment.

Haruna also looked surprised.

The four of them were prepared to be arrested by Hina, but Hina's words caused them to react in different ways.

"Oh my, I never expected to hear that from the head of the disciplinary committee."

"This...this is completely different from what we expected! Could it be because of the teacher?"

"Yay! We can have a big meal tonight!"

Seeing their reaction, Hina continued, "Of course, if you do anything against the rules, I will still arrest you."

"Hehe, I am very honored to be invited by the Chairman of the Disciplinary Committee and the Speaker of the Pandemonium." Haruna breathed a sigh of relief.

However, she wouldn't give up on kidnapping Fengxiang, since she had already come up with a new culinary idea, and all the ingredients were ready; she just needed Fengxiang to put it into practice.

But given the current situation, it seems like making a cake together with Hina, who used to be my adversary, might not be so bad.

Let's put the kidnapping plan on hold for now.

So, everyone started making the cake together.

However, more and more people came into the cafeteria. It started when Hina told Ako, Chinatsu and Iori to make a cake, and then Iroha, Ibuki and Makoto and others came. Even Sena brought a few members of the emergency medicine department to help.

As a result, the small cakes that were originally planned to be made grew bigger and bigger with everyone's help.

In the end, looking at the huge cake that was nearly 1 meter in diameter and 1.5 meters high, Hina couldn't believe that it was the result of just one afternoon of hard work.

However, recalling the scene of everyone here setting aside their prejudices and wholeheartedly immersing themselves in making the cake, Hina felt a sense of comfort.

"Teacher, tonight, I will give you my love and gratitude."
