I'm in Teresin, dedicated to playing badly

Since they'll probably come knocking on our door sooner or later anyway, we might as well just pick one of the two, Surugawa Tetsuya or Rudolf Symbol, and let them take charge of the killing, while he and Eclipse just stand by and laugh.

While the other three felt something was amiss when Kitahara Shinji volunteered.

However, considering that he was an expert in this field and had a rich resume, they did not refuse.

And then...

"Miss Junchuan, are you really okay in this condition?"

Not only Shinji Kitahara, but also Rudolf and the chairman cast worried glances at Tsuna Suguruga.

Faced with the three people watching, Junkawa Tessuna remained silent for a while, then sighed.

"I try my best."

To be honest, Tsuna was also aware that she was not in a good state.

But the problem is that such a serious matter cannot be ignored by her, as the captain of Treson's security force.

Thinking of this, Tsuna suddenly remembered something and looked at Shinji Kitahara.

"Um, Kitahara, you're Alice's trainer, do you have any energy-restoring potions on hand...?"

"Have."

Shinji Kitahara nodded, then spoke.

"But I don't recommend you use it."

It's not because I'm worried about side effects or anything. In fact, the energy supplements from Alice's side generally have very few side effects; they basically just make you glow or something.

The problem is that those energy potions, including those provided by his system, are only temporary fixes.

Although it can be used for short-term emergency relief, to replenish energy during strenuous exercise, or to treat fresh external injuries.

However, if used for a long time, it can easily turn you into someone like Alice, who looks fine on the outside but is actually full of hidden dangers inside – the kind of actor's constitution.

As for Surugawa Tessuna's situation, it's not impossible to use medication to prolong it.

The problem is that her body has already reached its limit. If she continues to use the medication to push herself, it could easily leave her with hidden dangers, and the situation could be even more serious than those of Alice.

Let alone medicine.

According to Shinji Kitahara, due to long-term overwork, Tsuna Surugawa now has many health problems that cannot be solved simply by resting.

He hadn't noticed her problem before because Tsuna usually dressed very conservatively, almost completely covering herself, and had never exercised properly in front of him.

In addition, she usually hides it very well, so it wasn't until today that she couldn't hold on any longer and showed signs of fatigue that Shinji Kitahara had the opportunity to see the problem with her.

This is a difficult situation...

To be honest, if he had a choice, Shinji Kitahara really wouldn't want to use that option.

But looking at the exhausted woman in front of her, whose eyes were bloodshot and made one wonder if she might collapse at any moment, one couldn't help but suspect that she was about to fall.

Shinji Kitahara always felt that if he didn't do something, she wouldn't be able to get anything done, let alone rely on others. She would be lucky if she could even work normally and not faint on the way to work.

Patrol and security work is a relatively dangerous job, and even someone as strong as Tsuna Sugawa might have an accident if he went there in this state.

After hesitating for a while, Kitahara Shinji looked at the increasingly exhausted Surugawa Tesuna in front of him and finally couldn't help but speak.

“Miss Junchuan, if you don’t mind, I know a little about nursing and might be able to help you relax and unwind.”

"Hmm? Trainer Kitahara, you also know how to take care of people?"

Because Shinji Kitahara's nursing care was all done in private, and although the girls weren't forbidden from talking about it, since they were all victims, no one dared to mention it to outsiders.

So far, even Rudolf's symbol is unaware that Shinji Kitahara is very skilled at nursing.

Faced with the three people's questions, Shinji Kitahara remained silent for a moment before answering.

"Well, I learned some things before, but I stopped halfway through. Then, a few of the younger members of the team are having some health issues, so I picked it up again. During the training camp, I would help take care of them from time to time..."

Although Shinji Kitahara's explanation was rather mediocre, based on their understanding of him, the other three didn't think he really knew anything.

As for Surugawa Tetsuya himself...

She had previously wanted to find a top-notch nurse to help her improve her health, and now that Shinji Kitahara seemed to be good at it, she naturally wouldn't refuse.

Moreover, it wasn't just Surugawa Tsuna who showed interest after hearing that he could take care of her. Rudolf, the symbol, and the chairman also became interested and asked him if he could take care of Surugawa right now in the chairman's office to see the effect.

But Shinji Kitahara refused.

"Miss Junchuan's condition is quite serious; a regular massage might not be enough. I need to use some other things, and the only things I have right now are in my dorm room, and I need to prepare them in advance..."

As he spoke, he looked at Tsuna Sugawa and said earnestly.

"So, could you please come to my dorm later, Miss Junchuan?"

"Furthermore, if possible, I hope Miss Junchuan will be prepared to stay overnight at my place."

"Otherwise, things might get more complicated."

Chapter 129: Could it be that Suguruga Tetsuna's problem is his own? (Revised)

Inviting someone of the opposite sex to come to their dorm room later, and specifically telling them to be prepared to stay overnight.

If it were anyone else, Junkawa Tessuna would probably have smiled and taken him down on the spot, then turned him over to the police station on charges of sexual harassment.

The problem is that it was Kitahara Shinji who said that.

That piece of wood, named Kitahara Shinji, was the best quality wood in all of Tressen.

Originally, due to urban legends, Shinji Kitahara already had a good reputation among the trainers.

As time went on, his reputation grew even more as more trainers noticed his ridiculously fast-growing team and the strange atmosphere within it.

Even now, some trainers are privately placing bets on whether he can surpass the ambition of the Three Heroes, when he will be challenged, and to what extent his pelvis will be broken.

As for the trainers' superiors, the chairman and Tsuna, they had naturally heard these rumors.

In particular, because of their work, the two of them spent a lot of time with Shinji Kitahara and had paid attention to a lot of information about him in private. They even knew more about him than the other trainers.

Therefore, they were very clear that Shinji Kitahara's quality was much higher than the trainers had estimated; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was the best piece of wood in all of Treson.

Therefore, although they felt that Kitahara Shinji's words were a bit subtle, none of the three of them misunderstood them. Instead, they became even more interested in the matter.

Then......

.......

Five hours later.

In front of Shinji Kitahara's dormitory.

After hearing the knock and opening the door, Shinji Kitahara looked at the three figures—two adults and one child—that appeared in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"I think I only invited Ms. Junchuan, right?"

"I was curious! Besides, I had finished all my work, so I came with Junchuan."

“I just came back from the Emperor’s side and wanted to talk to you, Trainer Kitahara, about the Emperor. I happened to run into these two, so I just came along.”

Yayoi Akikawa and Rudolf answered calmly, though their eyes flickered slightly as they spoke.

Although it was Tsuna Sugawa who came to take care of her this time, and she is indeed the busiest person in the entire Treson, that doesn't mean that the positions of chairman and student council president are easy.

In fact, as the chairperson, Akikawa Yayoi even surpasses Surugawa Tezuna in terms of sheer volume of paperwork.

The latter is responsible for execution and security work, which is why he is so tired, but that doesn't mean the chairman has it easy.

As for Rudolph, he would have to juggle all sorts of tasks, handling student council duties while also dealing with the troubles of the symbol family.

The time she spent at the training ground with Shinji Kitahara watching The Emperor of the East Blue was practically her only relaxing period.

So it's not just Surugawa Tsuna; if possible, Akikawa Yayoi and Rudolf also really want a top-notch nurse to help them relax after work.

So besides being curious, they also wanted to take this opportunity to see Shinji Kitahara's nursing skills.

If they really do have top-tier nurses as they predict, then in the future...

Akikawa Yayoi gently waved her fan, while Rudolf Elephant maintained his smile, revealing nothing of their inner thoughts.

After entering Shinji Kitahara's dormitory, the first thing they saw was the nursing bed placed in the office area outside the dormitory, with some professional-looking items next to it.

But that's not what attracts their attention the most.

What caught their attention most was a black rice ball on the sofa not far from the nursing bed, who looked like it had just taken a shower and was sitting there in its pajamas, lost in thought.

"Eclipse-kun, do you live with Trainer Kitahara?"

"I can't believe it," Junkawa Tezuna asked curiously.

Shinji Kitahara walked to the nursing bed, checking the equipment as he answered casually.

"No, it's mainly because I was thinking that Miss Junchuan might have some difficulty moving around after the treatment, and I thought it wouldn't be very convenient for me, a man, to take care of you, so I asked her to come and help."

Is it inconvenient to move around?

The other three exchanged glances, all seeing the same confusion in each other's eyes.

Even though the three of them couldn't find top-notch nurses on campus.

However, as the three women at the top of Tresson, they also have considerable knowledge in nursing.

Even so, they had never heard of any nursing care that left patients unable to move around or even requiring assistance afterward.

But that's not their problem.

Because in reality, Shinji Kitahara's team actually has a genuine top-tier nurse, namely, Alice Digital.

Moreover, after receiving instruction from Shinji Kitahara, Alice Digital is now considered one of the top nurses, even among the best.

Even so, when she usually took care of Eliseko, Eliseko would at most show an expression of enjoyment or hum a few words.

Aside from that, there were no other reactions. After the nursing care ended, I felt completely relaxed and was able to do experiments and various activities without any problems. In fact, I performed even better than before the nursing care.

As for Shinji Kitahara, he was able to calmly provide various guidance to Alice Digital while receiving care from her. After the care was completed, he was able to move freely and felt that his fatigue had been greatly reduced.

This is what a top-notch nurse should look like.

As for Shinji Kitahara, well...

All I can say is that he's not quite normal.

And soon, the three people inside the room also realized this.

Just as the three of them were still unable to find an answer to their previous questions, Shinji Kitahara finished checking the equipment and then invited Tsuna Suguru to come and take care of her.

I had already taken a shower and changed into some casual clothes before coming, as requested by Shinji Kitahara.

So Tsuna didn't need any other preparations, and went straight over and lay down on the bed as he asked.

Everything seemed normal, and the doubts in the eyes of the two people next to them gradually dissipated.

Then, just as their doubts had almost dissipated.

Shinji Kitahara pulled out a pair of rather heavy-looking, black shackles from under the nursing bed.

Junkawa Tessuna blinked, and after confirming that he hadn't misread what Kitahara Shinji was holding, he spoke with some difficulty.

"Um, Trainer Kitahara, what's that in your hand...?"

"Shackles."

Shinji Kitahara answered frankly, and after a pause, he added a sentence.

"Moreover, they are specially customized, adjustable alloy shackles, several levels stronger than those used on Tsushima Girl, which should be enough to restrain you, Ms. Surukawa."

"No, Trainer Kitahara, I wanted to ask..."

Click.

Before Junkawa Tessuna could finish speaking, the shackles were fastened to her wrists and fixed to the nursing bed frame, which was also reinforced with alloy.

Then, seeing the bewildered expression on Tsuna's face, Shinji Kitahara explained.

"Please don't worry about damaging your wrist. When I ordered it, I specifically asked them to add a lining inside. Although the outside is hard, the inside is soft, so even if you use some force, there won't be any problems."

At this moment, Rudolf, whose expression was gradually becoming more subtle, finally couldn't help but speak up.

"Um, Trainer Kitahara, I think Miss Surugawa wants to ask why you're restraining her like this..."

"Hmm? Isn't that obvious?"

Shinji Kitahara looked at her with a strange expression and pointed to the shackles that were securing Tsuna Suguru.
