I, Iron Pilot, work as a teacher in Azure Files

"At that time, the oasis was as wide as a lake, and many people who came here especially came here to row boats."

"Ah, I'll give you this poster as a souvenir!"

"Hoshino" pursed his lips, silently put down the shotgun in his hand, and sat on the chair in the student union room where he couldn't even maintain his balance, staring at the poster in a daze.

"Hey hey, that's great, isn't it?"

The girl in front of her continued to be silly and happy, as if she would never feel uncomfortable, would never worry about the future of the school, and had always held stupid thoughts like this, spending every second optimistically.

really-

Incomprehensible.

"If any miracle happens, I hope our school will gather as many people as in the poster—"

"Miracles don't happen, senior."

"Hoshino" suppressed the inexplicable anger in his heart, raised his eyes and said coldly, very impatiently interrupting that stupid girl's fantasy:

"How can such illusory things exist? Instead of pinning your mind on those useless self-comfort, please open your eyes and take a good look at reality!"

"Eh--"

The girl made a long voice in dissatisfaction, but there was no anger in her expression, she just cutely bulged her cheeks like a puffer fish.

Looking at her appearance, the irritability and anger in "Hoshino" suddenly became more intense, and even his tone couldn't help but become uncontrollable, and his voice suddenly rose:

"Surely there won't be so many people gathered in the center of the desert again?! Please stop talking in sleep!"

"Oh, because, because..."

The sudden outburst of "Hoshino" stunned the girl for a moment, and she froze for a few seconds before she came back to her senses at a loss.

She wanted to explain at first, but seeing "Hoshino" looking so annoyed to death, she finally said nothing and pursed her mouth in grievance.

"Hoshino-chan, hug, sorry...?"

"……Ugh."

Seeing the girl's expression, "Hoshino" couldn't say anything more, he could only sigh helplessly, reached out and patted the table, preaching like an elder:

"You are always so whimsical, talking about miracles, happiness, etc... But those are things that will never happen in reality!"

"In short, please cheer up and don't continue to indulge in boring fantasies! You are the president of the Abydos Student Union! Recognize your responsibilities a little bit!"

"Thorn-"

There were several crisp sounds of paper being torn, and the desert festival poster, which was originally only slightly old but obviously carefully preserved, turned into flying pieces of paper, falling down like snowflakes.

Not only that, but at the moment the poster was torn apart, together with the pitch-black space and the girl with a frozen expression, together with "Hoshino", all disintegrated and shattered abruptly.

A terrifying sense of weightlessness suddenly filled the whole body, as if he was falling into an endless abyss with no bottom to be seen.

"Senior Hoshino? Senior Hoshino?"

A familiar shout sounded in my ear, it was indifferent and clear, like a lark's unique voice.

"Ugh..."

Hoshino snorted in a daze, his eyelashes fluttered a few times, and he slowly opened his eyes.

The first thing that catches the eye is the pair of gray wolf ears on Baizi's head that look so soft that people can't help but want to hold them in their hands and play with them.

"If you can, please get out of the car and continue to sleep. We have arrived at school."

"yes……"

Hoshino stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, sat up propped up, and looked at everyone around him with concern.

None of the four people who went to the desert together was absent. Even Luo Lin was standing outside the car, reaching for the door of the crew compartment of the armored car, stepping on the edge of the car body with one foot, silently looking at Hoshino's still frowning face. brow.

She remained in this state even when she was asleep.

"Senior Hoshino, are you tired?"

Celery's single ponytail tied behind her head was hanging loose, and she was retying her hair when she saw Hoshino being woken up by Shirako, she was so concerned that she even temporarily ignored the movements of her hands, and her voice softened in a rare way:

"Well, it's actually okay~"

Hoshino laughed, stood up actively, and walked towards the outside of the passenger compartment half bent.

"After all, I'm already an uncle. I'm sure I can't compare to you young people in energy. It's normal to have a higher need for sleep. I'm sorry, sorry~"

She smiled lazily, passed Luo Lin and jumped out of the car, raised her hand and patted his shoulder.

"If I have to say it, it's because the teacher's car is driving so smoothly, I'm getting sleepy before I know it~"

"Really? Thanks."

Luo Lin took off the pilot's helmet and let out a long sigh of relief. He didn't break the girl's gag, but thanked him noncommittally, and then turned to look into the crew room.

"Everyone get out of the car, what's next, let's go back to the conference room and talk about it."

……

"...All in all, that's the way it is now."

Ayane bit her lip, anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and kept walking up and down in the small meeting room, her anxiety almost palpable in her words.

"3000% interest rate, 9000 million yen in interest, and a deposit to be paid next week... [-] million yen or something..."

"How could such a sudden request be met..."

"...I'm going out first."

Listening to Ayane's repeated thoughts, Baizi lowered his eyebrows, said a word lightly, stood up calmly with his rifle in his hand, turned around and was about to walk outside the meeting room.

"Bai, senior Baizi, where are you going when you tell me...?!"

Bai Zi's footsteps stopped, he turned his head halfway, his sky-like blue eyes looked at his companions in the conference room who shared weal and woe.

"...The problem of arrears can no longer be solved by normal means. We must find out if there is another way."

Her seemingly endless sentence is actually not difficult to understand, it can even be said that the moment she uttered it, everyone present, including Luo Lin, immediately understood what Bai Zi wanted to express.

"No, no, you can't do that kind of thing..."

Nogong stood up in a panic, trying to hold Bai Zi, but was stopped by Qin Xiang beside him.

"...I agree with Senior Bai Zi's idea."

The black cat girl pursed her lips tightly, and obvious determination flashed in her wine-red pupils, "If everything in school is gone, it will really be over! I can't take care of so much now!"

"Little, little Qinxiang..."

Nomiya opened his mouth, and took half a step back, his eyes full of confusion and fog flashed a little sadness.

I know it's wrong to do so...

But now everyone who has such an idea must be wrong?

"If you go to rob the bank again, won't it be the same as before?"

Ayane took a deep breath, put her small hands behind her, and wrinkled the hem of the neat school uniform skirt, staring straight at Qinxiang.

"Senior Hoshino and Sensei already stopped us at that time, are you really going to become criminals?"

"I……"

Qin Xiang was at a loss for words for a moment, a look of struggle appeared in her eyes, she fell silent together with Bai Zi.

"Alright, Bai Zi, calm down, and so is Qin Xiang."

Luo Lin, who was quietly watching the development of the situation, finally spoke. It was just a plain sentence, but it seemed to provide a life-saving straw for those who fell into the water, and unexpectedly calmed down all the emotional girls.

"Well, the teacher is right~"

Hoshino, who had been silent since just now, was also joking with Luo Lin at this moment, as if he already had a solution in his heart, without any nervousness.

"Everyone calm down, your head is steaming?"

"...Sorry, Hoshino-senpai, and teacher, I didn't mean to do this."

Bai Zi remained silent for a moment, raised his hand and patted his head, trying to make himself more sober, then walked to Luo Lin's side and stood silently, without continuing to say anything.

"It's okay, I know, Bai Zi and everyone are actually good boys."

A smile appeared on the corner of Luo Lin's lips, and he squeezed Bai Zi's slender shoulders comfortingly, then turned his head to look at the others:

"Since everyone is so impatient now, let's just change the subject and take it as a time to calm down."

"Do you still remember when we ate at the Chaiguan Ramen Restaurant? As I said, there will be a tactical exercise in the near future that requires you to participate, and tomorrow is the day to start."

"At that time, people from other schools will gather near Abydos High School. Although there is a high probability that the exercise will not be completed, at least during the process, we still have to go all out, understand?"

"Huh?! Exercise?!"

Qin Xiang's eyes widened all of a sudden, and she slapped the table with a "bang", as if to let Luo Lin hear what nonsense she was talking about, her body almost leaned forward at 45 degrees, and said word by word:

"Teacher, we are going to pay a deposit of [-] million yen next week, how can we have the mind to play drills with other schools?!"

"Um... how should I say it?"

Luo Lin smiled, and turned his eyes around the meeting room. What he met was undoubtedly the unbelievable eyes of the girls.

"In the story, the sudden appearance of an abnormal situation, doesn't it all indicate that a miracle is about to happen?"

He shrugged his shoulders, and spit out a sentence in a rather relaxed and humorous tone:

"Maybe it's not even next week before the miracle of 'no more repayment pressure' happens, right?'

Chapter 82 Can I Ask You Something?

"Huh? Teacher, what inexplicable things are you talking about?"

Qin Xiang gave a "tsk", and grinned at Luo Lin like a kitten with a blown fur, with a speechless look on her face.

"Although I understand that you are joking because you want to alleviate our excessive anxiety, but at this time, it is too unreliable to say that you need to rely on a 'miracle' to turn the situation around..."

"Well, do you actually understand that?"

Luo Lin smashed his mouth, raised his hand and scratched his hair, leaned back on the back of the chair, tilted the chair at an angle, and swayed his legs leisurely.

"Didn't I just say that when I was in the desert? Regarding the malicious land annexation incident in the Abydos Autonomous Region that Xia Lai is investigating, the current number one suspect is the Caesars Group."

"Eh……?"

When Qin Xiang stopped moving her hands, she froze for an instant and subconsciously swallowed her saliva.

"Then, is that actually true?! I thought it was just something you said casually, Teacher, to scare that bastard from the Caesars Group!"

"Of course it's true."

Seeing Qin Xiang's foolish look, Luo Lin could not help but rubbed the center of his brows with a wry smile.

"Didn't I mention it when I was at Chaiguan Ramen Shop? I've been working hard to investigate."

"..."

Qin Xiang fell silent, her gaze flickered non-stop, her absolutely bare face turned red instantly, and the lovely rosiness spread all the way to her ears before gradually fading away.

"In that case, does that mean..."

Bai Zi frowned slightly, ignored Qin Xiang's embarrassing look around, touched his smooth chin and meditated for a moment, as if he suddenly realized something, there was a look of hope in his eyes.

Before she even finished speaking, she hastily raised her little head and looked at Luo Lin as if asking for proof.

At the same time, Hoshino's golden and blue pupils suddenly showed a bit of astonishment. She sat up straight silently, looked at Luo Lin as well, and continued Bai Zi's half-spoken words aloud:

"We don't have to pay back the money?"

"Leaving aside the reality, just in theory, you still have to pay back the money."

Luo Lin cleared his throat, covered his mouth and coughed.

"It's just that if the evidence of Caesars Group's malicious acquisition of land is solid, then the other party's unreasonable request of '3000% interest rate' can be completely ignored."

"A security deposit may be required, but the amount will certainly not be as outrageous as directly accounting for one-third of the total debt, but it is an astronomical figure for ordinary people."

"And if there are no accidents, according to the current progress, this matter will definitely be settled before next week."

"Yes, is that so..."

Celery, Shirako, Ayane, and Nomiya looked at each other for a while, and then saw the same relaxation as themselves from the expressions of the others.
