"Saotome-sensei, something happened recently while you were away. To be exact, it happened yesterday...

"So Ms. Miyagawa's attitude and some of her actions may seem strange, but please don't take it to heart, she didn't mean it," explained Rinto Takahashi.

Did something happen yesterday? Could it be that the news of Matsumoto Hitomi's death was known to Miyagawa Roku and the others?

Saotome remained skeptical about this for the time being, thinking it was impossible.

After all, Matsumoto Hitomi died just yesterday, and after she happened to see him, she immediately blocked the news and only told girls like Kujo Sakura and Hoshimi Haruka.

"So what happened?" Saotome asked curiously. She vaguely guessed that it was definitely related to Kurosawa.

"It's hard to explain right now, but to make a long story short, Kurosawa got into trouble, and he had to resign from the school..."

As expected, it was Kurosawa Ryosuke's business, and Saotome was proud of her own cleverness.

The fact that Kurosawa Ryosuke was fired directly did surprise her. Yugao High School is different from other schools. The job of a teacher is extremely stable and well-paid, and the salary will increase visibly with the increase of qualifications.

Generally speaking, Yugaoka would not easily dismiss a hired teacher, and Watanabe Toru was just an accident...

It's hard to imagine what Kurosawa Ryosuke had done to be fired from Yugao within a day, but when you think about his single-celled brain, which makes it easy for him to act impulsively and without regard for the consequences, Saotome can understand it.

But it was really hard for Miyagawa Lu. Not only did she have to accept the fact that her new boyfriend was fired, but she also had to face the suicide of her best friend Matsumoto Hitomi.

Just thinking about it, Saotome mourned for her in her heart. I hope Mr. Miyagawa can bear it...

"Miyagawa-sensei has been looking worried all day, and Matsumoto-sensei is still unreachable.

"Teacher Saotome has returned just in time. I'm afraid Teacher Miyagawa has gone to the bathroom. Could you please go check on her?"

Saotome agreed and chased after him. She did not tell Takahashi that she had also resigned. It was irrelevant and had nothing to do with him. While chasing Miyagawa Lu, Saotome was thinking about how to tell her the news of Matsumoto Hitomi's death, so she made a phone call.

When Saotome Hazuki chased to the sink in the women's bathroom, Miyagawa Lu was leaning against the wall, bent over and retching with her mouth open. Her voice was painful and her expression was solemn, which was very contagious.

Pulling out a few wet wipes from her bag and handing them to Miyakawa, Saotome patted her back gently, caressing her carefully.

Even though Saotome is arrogant and domineering, and kills innocent people at will, she will still pretend to shed a few crocodile tears to maintain her personality in front of the world.

"Do we need to go to the health center or hospital? Teacher Miyagawa, you're acting too scary!" Saotome suggested eagerly, and every move she made showed her concern for her.

She wiped her mouth with a wet tissue, and didn't dare to take the hand that Miyagawa Lu was gently caressing away from her lower abdomen. She stood against the wall, breathing heavily for a long time before she spoke out to thank Saotome.

Not wanting to make Saotome worry about her, Miyagawa had to explain: "Don't worry too much, Mr. Saotome. It should be a normal phenomenon of pregnancy reaction. It's just a little uncomfortable. There's nothing serious. It won't cause any trouble..."

"…Huh!? Pregnancy reaction!?" Another piece of heavy news came, and the dizzy Saotome Hazuki couldn't believe it:

"That is to say! Mr. Miyagawa, you!"

"Well, yes...I'm pregnant. I've been pregnant for a month."

After hearing the official announcement, Saotome's first reaction was what kind of fertility constitution does Miyagawa Tsukushi have?

How long has she been dating Kurosawa Ryosuke? And she's already pregnant!?

Saotome Hazuki didn't know whether she should envy Miyagawa Lu, but it was only because she had been taking a new type of special contraceptive pill all these years that there was no movement in her belly and she didn't get pregnant with Watanabe Tetsuya's child.

Otherwise, Saotome couldn't imagine how many children she could have with Watanabe...

During those years in Kyoto, Saotome only remembered that Mizunotsuki, that bitch, secretly stopped taking the medicine and didn't take it. In the end, she got pregnant with Watanabe's child as she wished...

But what a pity, what a pity~~!!

Saotome couldn't help but recall Mizunotsuki lying in a pool of blood in the sea of ​​fire, holding her stomach with both hands and wailing in pain, crying with tears all over her face, begging him to save her and the life of the child she was carrying with Watanabe...

Whenever she recalled this scene in her mind, Saotome Hazuki couldn't help but hum with joy.

In fact, no one can be blamed for this. Who let that old woman Mizunotsuki break into the welfare home without any reason on the night of the fire?

He even dared to confront Watanabe Naoko face to face!

Saotome Hazuki really doesn't understand how Chihaya Mizunotsuki dared to do that. Who gave her the courage?

When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous of each other. Watanabe Naoko, who has nothing to lose, looks at Chihaya Mizunotsuki who appears arrogantly in front of her. How can she bear it?

The more Saotome recalled Mizunotsuki's miserable condition, the more she couldn't stop smiling, and she almost laughed out loud on the spot.

Suppressing her overjoyed expression, Saotome instantly turned into a worried look and comforted her:

"Don't think too much about Ms. Miyakawa being pregnant. I just heard from Ms. Takahashi that she just resigned. It's not a big deal. There are so many opportunities. There's no need to worry about such a small matter..."

Saotome was just saying nice things, how could she not see the biggest problem between Miyagawa and Kurosawa?

One longs for a stable, long and happy life, and has already made plans for the future; while the other, to put it nicely, is as naive as a child who will never grow up, cowardly and unable to shoulder responsibilities.

Now that he has suffered the blow of being fired, he may never recover from the blow in his life and become completely decadent and a NEET Heisei otaku.

Saotome Hazuki has a very good eye for people, and she believes she won't misjudge Kurosawa Ryosuke.

It's a pity for Mr. Miyagawa...

Such a good woman got involved with Kurosawa Ryosuke, and now not only was he fired, but she is also pregnant...

It's a devastating start!

Thinking about the arrangements she had just made on the road, if Miyakawa Lu heard about the death of her best friend Matsumoto Hitomi...

Under the double blow, will she end up like that old woman Mizunotsuki?

Saotome is really curious.

If it were the old Saotome Hazuki, she would definitely pretend to be clueless, quietly wait for everything she had arranged in advance, and then stand aside and observe Miyakawa Lu's reaction silently to verify how much harm it would bring to her, whether she would miscarry on the spot? Or even die twice?

If it were the former Saotome Hazuki, she would definitely do the same.

However, now, when Saotome found that she knew the situation and was within her ability, but did nothing, Watanabe's disappointed and indifferent eyes would unconsciously appear in her mind. It filled her entire mind, as if she was drowning in the sea, struggling to survive, and her whole body was slowly drained of strength by the sea water, making her feel suffocated and helpless...

She will grasp any possible life-saving straw!

So Saotome spoke up: "Mr. Miyagawa, wait for me, I'm going to make a phone call."

"Okay, I'll take a breath and rest for a while."

Unfortunately, it was too late. Saotome rushed out of the bathroom in a panic, but she failed to pay attention to the time. When she came out and took out her mobile phone to notify her subordinates to immediately terminate the order she had issued before, the time displayed on the mobile phone screen made her heart skip a beat.

It was already 15:30 pm, the time she had set eight minutes ago.

Thinking something was not right, Saotome immediately turned back the way she came and saw that Miyagawa Lu had already answered the phone and was having a conversation.

Her relaxed brows were tightly knitted together again, like an old and rusty door lock, and her tone was flat but with a slight tremor:

"Ah!? Are you kidding me or are you a liar? Today is not April Fool's Day. Jokes are not funny at all...

"Hurry and give the phone back to Hitomi-chan!"

However, the voice on the other end of the phone was like the death knell knocking on the door, and the sharp sickle came through the wind, leaving countless bloody wounds on the person's body.

"I'm really sorry, Miyagawa-san...

"I solemnly inform you that your good friend Matsumoto Hitomi passed away last night. The specific cause of death is not yet known, and an autopsy can only be performed after the family members sign.

"However, Ms. Matsumoto's legal parents have long passed away, and she has no other relatives. After unlocking her phone without permission, we only found you, who was her closest relative, in the recent contacts.

"If you have time, please come over and sign to claim Matsumoto-san's body so that she can rest in peace. Thank you!

"I solemnly emphasize once again that I have not lied in any way in the above words, and I have no reason to lie to you.

"If you don't believe it, you can come to our hospital and confirm it with the police. The address of our hospital is..."

Miyagawa Lu didn't hear the specific address afterwards. The phone slipped from her hand and fell to the ground with a sound, and the screen shattered into pieces.

Miyagawa Lu only felt her brain explode with a loud bang, her consciousness went blank, her eyes rolled back and she was about to fall to the ground.

Having already missed the opportunity once, Saotome will not just watch Miyagawa Lu fall to the ground like this.

She's pregnant with a baby now!

Without caring about the eight-centimeter high heels on her feet, Saotome Hazuki flew towards Miyagawa Lu, and at the critical moment, she used her body to support the falling woman, preventing her from falling to the ground.

Feeling the heavy weight on her back, Saotome breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at her sprained ankle. She didn't bother to see how swollen it was. She adjusted her posture and checked on Miyagawa Lu's condition. Seeing that she was just unconscious and nothing serious happened, she didn't relax. After all, she was pregnant and if there were signs of miscarriage, it would be very dangerous.

It was okay as long as the situation was not too irreversible. Saotome called her maids and the ambulance, and the most urgent thing was to send Miyagawa Lu to the hospital for examination.

Well, we went to the hospital where Matsumoto Hitomi was currently staying...

Although this joke was really hellish, Saotome couldn't laugh at all right now.

In the ambulance, Miyagawa Lu was still unconscious, and after a preliminary examination, the doctor told Saotome that the pregnant woman was fine, but a detailed examination was needed to confirm.

Saotome did not feel impatient. This matter was caused by her to some extent, so she should accompany him and take corresponding responsibilities.

However, when the doctor told her to contact the pregnant woman's family, Saotome refused.

Miyagawa Lu's home is far away in Shizuoka Prefecture. Not only can her parents not come in a short period of time, but it is also a troublesome matter when they know that their daughter is pregnant before marriage. At the very least, they have to ask her opinion.

As for Kurosawa Ryosuke...Saotome was too lazy to say anything to him.

With Saotome? Just being there will be enough. She can definitely protect the safety of Miyagawa Lu and the baby in her belly.

Even at the gates of hell, Saotome can pull them back!

Just when Saotome was setting her ambitious goals in her heart, a Line message alert sounded from her phone.

Confused, Saotome unlocked the letter and took a look. It was a reply from Noriko.

[Koriko Shimizu: Hazuki-chan~ You finally showed up!]

[Wow, I miss you so much. I haven’t heard from you for such a long time…]

[Sorry, I was taking a nap just now, so I couldn’t reply to the message in time]

[Important things?]

[Hehe~~Hazuki-chan, do you want to guess~?]

[Okay! I won’t tease you anymore!]

[What I want to say is——]

[Ahem~]

[I’m pregnant!]

[I’m finally pregnant with Tetsuya-kun’s child~!]

[Hey, Hazuki-chan~ If possible, can Hazuki-chan be the stepmother of Tetsuya-kun and I's baby? Please, please~! ]

Sliding the screen of her phone, Saotome looked down with a frown at the messages that popped up at the bottom.

When she saw the last three messages sent by Shimizu Noriko, Saotome Hazuki felt a chill rushing up from the soles of her feet and drilling into the top of her head, trying to knock her away.
