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

Evening, Trinity College, old school building.

The teacher had already returned and told the doctor about her previous experience in the Federal Student Council.

"Simply put, you're a temporary worker, right?" After hearing the teacher's decision, the hooded man understood his current status. "That's fine with me."

"As for my salary, I can just take some currency from the King's Treasury, you don't need to pay me."

The teacher was dumbfounded after hearing this.

This doctor not only has superpowers, but also the power of money!

Suppressing her envy, the teacher continued to ask the doctor, "By the way, how is Hifumi and the others' learning progress?"

"It looks pretty good," the hooded man concluded. "It's basically a pattern where Hanako instructs Azusa, and Hifumi and Koharu ask me questions on their own initiative."

"During the period, we also conducted a mock test. While I was grading the papers, I took the opportunity during a break to tell them the story of Chaldea."

What is Chaldea?

"You don't know FGO?"

"That 'useless dog' thing? I've seen other people play it before, but I'm not interested."

"Chaldea is the organization where the protagonist of FGO belongs. I told them a story about the protagonist of FGO and the Servant Lilith. When the story involved their relationship, they listened very attentively."

"Ha..." The teacher was quite surprised.

Unexpectedly, the hooded man became familiar with the four members of the tutoring department so quickly.

After listening to the hooded man's report, the teacher and the hooded man together used another empty storeroom as the hooded man's bedroom.

Because Hifumi would come to his room every night to talk and help him with his work, it was naturally inconvenient for the Hooded Man to act alone.

Therefore, giving him his own space is naturally the best choice.

Afterwards, the teacher and the hooded man supervised the evening self-study session together. During the break, the hooded man continued to tell the unfinished story of Lilith.

After the hooded man finished telling the story, Hifumi and the other three were clearly still not satisfied.

Hifumi sighed, "What a pity! Lilith didn't even get to say a proper goodbye to Fujimaru Ritsuka in the end."

"Miss Lilith's fighting style using her feet is really amazing." Azusa focused on the battle, "I'm very interested in that man named Emiya Alter. He can make a bullet explode with a large number of swords from the inside out. It's unbelievable!"

"Waaaaah, I wish Lilith and Fujimaru Ritsuka could end up together."

"Hehehe... That nun named Sesshouin, her ideals are quite interesting, and she's completely different from her fellow nuns, to think she'd be so... shameless..."

The four then began to discuss the plot as told by the doctor, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

However, when the time came, everyone consciously began to study.

After evening self-study ended and everyone washed up, the teacher returned to the dormitory and sat quietly by the bed.

Because he knew that Hifumi would come here.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

"Teacher, are you asleep?"

It was Hanako's voice outside the door, but that was within the teacher's expectations.

"come in."

As the door opened, Hanako entered the bedroom wearing a swimsuit.

I knew it would turn out this way, but the teacher's expression remained very calm.

"Hanako, aren't you cold dressed like that?" The teacher decided to use his typical straight-man approach, "Quickly change back into your gym clothes."

"Oh my, the thought of meeting and talking with my teacher makes me feel warm all over, not cold at all. On the contrary, I feel a little hot~."

"Ahem, so you've come to see me alone now, is there something important you want to say?"

"Hmm." Hanako's previously ambiguous expression returned to normal. "What I wanted to talk about was Azusa-chan..."

Then the door opened again.

"Teacher, I'd also like to find someone tonight... huh?"

Hifumi's expression began to panic after she saw her teacher with Hanako, who was wearing a standard swimsuit.

"Excuse me, I've interrupted your business. I'll leave right away!"

As Hifumi finished speaking, she was about to close the door, but the teacher blocked her with one hand.

"Wait, Hifumi, it's not what you think!" the teacher quickly explained. "Hanako just wanted to talk to me about something; wearing a swimsuit was her own decision!"

"Sorry, I misunderstood..." Hifumi pushed open the door somewhat embarrassedly, but her eyes were full of complaint. "But, Hanako-chan, could you change your clothes...?"

"Alright, I can't refuse Hifumi-chan's request."

After a while, Hanako returned to the teacher's room wearing her gym clothes.

"Ah, the three of us having a secret rendezvous tonight, I'm getting a little excited just thinking about it~."

"It was just a normal conversation," the teacher corrected, then continued to prompt Hanako, "Hanako, please continue about Azusa."

Upon hearing the name Azusa, Hifumi's face showed a worried expression.

Do the teacher and Hanako think that Azusa is highly suspicious?

Hifumi felt that Azusa's desire to pass the exam and her love for the MomoFriend series of dolls were genuine!

"Okay." Hanako also noticed Hifumi's worried expression. "Hifumi-chan can listen too, it's okay."

".......Um."

“I’ve noticed this past week that Azusa goes out every night and comes back very late each time,” Hanako said worriedly. “And she looks very uneasy. I’m worried that she won’t be able to keep going like this for long.”

"Teacher, you and Hifumi-chan should get some sleep too. Although the three tests at the cram school are important, it's just one failing grade, which is nothing compared to your health."

"Hanako," the teacher mentioned, "the reason why Hifumi and I worked so hard to help everyone pass is..."

“Normally, that might be true,” Hifumi explained. “If anyone fails the next two tests, we will all be expelled from Trinity College!”

"Drop out?!"

Hanako was somewhat incredulous upon hearing this.

"Hifumi-chan, what are you talking about? There's no explicit rule about that kind of thing in the school regulations, and withdrawing from school requires a lot of procedures and a valid reason. How could it be so simple...?"

"Hanako, you actually know that things aren't as simple as you think," the teacher explained. "The tutoring club was founded by Nagisa, and the fact that I was involved in its activities used Xia Lai's highest level of authority to bypass Trinity's withdrawal process, allowing you to be expelled directly."

"The reason for doing this is to eliminate any internal sabotage that could disrupt the smooth signing of the Eden Treaty."

"Although Nagisa is thinking about the big picture, she has fallen into a vortex of self-doubt. In fact, it could be said that the entire tutoring club dropping out is the result she hopes to see. Even if Hifumi, whom she cares about, is among them, it will not change her decision."

"......"

Hanako fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

“I see. I always thought the mechanism of ‘if one person fails, the whole class is expelled’ was strange. Now I finally know why.”

"Speaking of which, Hanako-chan, your grades are actually quite good, aren't they!?" Hifumi asked, remembering something. "In your first year, you even got full marks on all the difficult exams in your third year!"

"..." Hanako didn't speak.

"Ah, um... I'm sorry, the teacher and I found it when we were looking for past exam papers for a mock exam..." Hifumi asked cautiously, "Why... why did you only get such a low score? You did it on purpose... right?"

"I'm the one who's really sorry," Hanako said, her expression equally apologetic. "I didn't know that if we failed, it would mean 'everyone dropping out'..."

"However, I deliberately gave myself that score, and I really feel bad for all of you who have worked so hard all this time."

"Sorry, teacher."

"And Hifumi-chan too, I'm sorry."

Hanako's earnest apology caught Hifumi off guard.

"No...it's alright..."

"It's quite remarkable that you can recognize your own problems," the teacher said with a smile.

"But Hanako-chan, why did you get such a low score?"

"Because of my personal reasons... but it was not my intention to hurt anyone as a result."

"So please rest assured, I will work hard in the future exams to minimize the chances of anyone dropping out."

"Thank you, Hanako." The teacher smiled. "I'm looking forward to seeing how you do in the future!"

"Don't do that, teacher! You don't need to thank me like that...!" Hanako quickly said, "I should be apologizing, for kneeling naked like that, or rather... for offering myself..."

"No, I don't want that kind of thing!" Hifumi quickly stopped her, "But hearing your promise to work hard from now on makes me feel much more at ease..."

"Thank you very much. However, is it only Hifumi-chan and the teacher who know that I will be dropping out of school?"

"Hmm, I haven't told Azusa and Koharu yet."

"I see. So Azusa-chan's anxiety isn't because of the exam. There's probably something I don't know about..."

"Ah...without realizing it, I've actually started to care about the tutoring department itself."

"This kind of plan is typical of Nagisa-san's style. She's still the same cunning little kitten as always~."

"However, even knowing about the Nagisa Project, you still worked so hard for us, and we are truly grateful to you." Hanako gave her teacher a sincere smile. "Teacher, you really are a kind person, hehe."

Ah, classic gentleness.

The teacher, who watched a lot of anime in his lifetime, is almost developing PTSD from this word.

That being said, the teacher also had some doubts.

Should we tell Hanako about Arios?

After being told, given Hanako's intelligence, she would probably be able to quickly deduce that the mole was Azusa.

The teacher was caught in a dilemma.

"Teacher, you seem to be hiding something," Hanako noticed at a glance.

"Ah...it's nothing." The teacher snapped out of her daze and gave an awkward smile.

Then, just like in the original work, Hanako made all sorts of speculations about the other members of the cram school club.

"Hanako-chan is amazing..." Hifumi exclaimed in amazement at Hanako's intelligence, "She's like a detective."

"And the reason I'm being suspected is probably because of this period of time, which is quite outrageous for everyone, haha."

"As expected of a smart person, they already had self-awareness..." the teacher thought to himself.

As for Arios, after careful consideration, the teacher decided to tell Hifumi and Hanako everything.

After all, the other party already has reincarnated individuals involved, and they may be familiar with the plot, and may make different plans than before.

"Hanako."

"Teacher, is there anything else you'd like to say?"

"You know about the Arian Academy, right?"

"Alioth Academy..!!"

After repeating the school's name, Hanako's gaze turned serious.

Hifumi also looked surprised: "Isn't that academy now nowhere to be found?!"

"Teacher, are you perhaps suggesting that the mastermind behind the attempt to sabotage the Eden Treaty is the Arius Academy, which we have no prior knowledge of?"

“That’s right.” The teacher decided to reveal all the information except for the reincarnators and Zi. “I was also there when Saintia was attacked, directing the defense. The five students who attacked at the time had the insignia of Arius Academy on their clothes.”

“In that case…” Hanako immediately concluded, “The mole that Nagisa is looking for is definitely Azusa.”

"Huh?! Why?!" Hifumi was shocked by Hanako's deduction.

"He transferred schools without any apparent reason, possessed the strength to single-handedly defeat dozens of members of the Justice Realization Department, went out for exercise every night on time, and could still get up on time in the morning..."

"These clues, when put together, completely confirm that Azusa is the mole that Nagisa is looking for."

"But if she's the mole, then why does she look so uneasy...?"

“Azusa is indeed the mole.” Seeing that Hanako had figured it out, the teacher simply laid it all out. “However, she doesn’t want to prevent the Eden Treaty from proceeding smoothly.”

"As for the reason..." The teacher looked at Hanako and Hifumi.

Hanako immediately understood, and Hifumi followed suit.

"I understand, teacher, you don't need to say it out loud," Hanako replied with a smile.

Hifumi nodded firmly in agreement.

"That's why I'm trying so hard not to let all of you drop out of school," the teacher said earnestly. "You are all kind-hearted children, and we shouldn't let you suffer undeservedly because of these complicated matters."

“Teacher…” Hanako understood her teacher’s true intention.

"Then, when the time comes, the four of you can talk together and open up to each other. Once you've built a trusting relationship as friends, even the biggest difficulties will become easier."

"Hehehe, then it would be best if the teacher came along too," Hanako said with a smile. "Then the four of us could have a secret rendezvous in a small, secluded room..."

"Hahaha, Hanako-chan, that's a bit of an exaggeration..."

"It's almost time to sleep," the teacher said, ending the conversation.

Goodnight, teacher.

Goodnight, teacher.

After saying that, Hanako and Hifumi opened the door and left.

"Looking forward to our next date~".

But as luck would have it, Haru happened to be passing by and saw Hifumi and Hanako coming out of the teacher's bedroom.

"?!" Koharu, who had been dazed, immediately perked up. "Hifumi?! Hanako?! You, you guys are with the teacher... are you... are you!?"

"Pervert! Baka!! Death penalty!!!"

And so, the second day began.
