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

"Really! If you know, don't make us wait so anxiously!"

I don't know who made such a complaint, but it made the beautiful smile on Hoshino's face even brighter.

"Really, since it's the request of the lovely juniors, there's really nothing I can do about it~"

"Then... I'm back."

Chapter 97 Hina? (two in one)

"Om - hum -"

The steady and heavy sound of mechanical operation echoed in my ears, Hoshino, Shirako, Serika, and Nomiya sat next to each other on top of Tai Tan's head, their postures seemed a little crowded.

But for the girls who just recovered from the emotional ups and downs, these insignificant little things are obviously not worth their attention, but what the companions around them have experienced is the most important thing.

"...So, Hoshino-senpai, you ran away secretly for this kind of thing?"

Qin Xiang sat beside Bai Zi, leaning on the rocket pod stowed on NG's shoulder, leaning back slightly.

"In order to determine whether that strange guy named 'Black Suit' is the real culprit of the desertification of Abydos?"

"Hey~ Because that sandstorm came so abruptly."

A lazy smile hung on Hoshino's face, and he subconsciously stroked his obviously short hair with his small hand, leaning comfortably on Nomiya's back.

"The scale is so large, the duration is so long, and it happens steadily every year, so it is inevitable that we will think more."

"And the guy in the black suit is the most incomprehensible person I've ever known. I would doubt him as a matter of course, right? After all, I can't look at other people's dirty uncle with kind eyes."

"It's not the same thing at all!"

The corners of Qin Xiang's mouth twitched, she raised her head as if she didn't know what to say, covered her eyes with her small hands, her wine red eyes narrowed, and looked at the clear blue sky.

"I can understand what Hoshino-senpai did, eh."

Baizi pursed his lips, stroked the hem of the skirt with both hands, then wrapped his arms around his knees, feeling the steady progress of Tai Tan, and silently answered a sentence:

"However, Senior Hoshino, what happened to that letter?"

"letter?"

Hoshino blinked quickly, his eyes suddenly drifted left and right, and he tried to fool him calmly:

"Ahaha... That's the way it is, it's no big deal, I'm back already."

"But according to what Senior Hoshino said just now, it must have been thought of a way to escape from the black suit long ago, right?"

Bai Zi shook his head, instead of being fooled by Hoshino's haha, he pointed out the problem straight to the point:

"In this case, why do you say such pessimistic words in the letter? Let us destroy your aura or something."

It's good if you don't ask this question, as soon as Bai Zi asked, Qin Xiang and Nomiya immediately realized something was wrong, looked at each other, and quickly put on a straight face.

"Senior Hoshino, it's better to explain quickly?"

"..."

Seeing that he couldn't escape this catastrophe, Hoshino could only scratch his hair in distress, then sighed softly, and his expression became straight.

"Well, it's actually just in case."

"At the end of the day, if it was just me, I didn't realize at the end of the day that I could take advantage of the loopholes in the rules and play black suits, just like he has always done with Abydos and me."

"It was only after talking with the teacher that I finally realized that the black suit method is as unscrupulous as possible within the rules. Anyone can use it as long as they are familiar with the rules."

The girl's voice paused, she raised her hand to scratch her cheek, the corner of her lips raised a helpless arc, and then continued.

"But it's the first time I've done this kind of thing, and I'm not sure if it will be successful, so of course I have to prepare with both hands."

At this point, Hoshino's voice stopped again, and then he slightly bowed his head towards the other girls, and said softly:

"Sorry, everyone, for making you worry."

Sitting in the Titan's cockpit, Luo Lin, who had been quietly listening to the girls chatting through the communication, smiled slightly at this time, and took the initiative to help Hoshino out.

"People always have to try for the first time. No matter whether the result is good or bad, you have to take this step. Otherwise, where will the growth come from?"

"Now that things have ended with the best ending, you don't have to pay too much attention to the past. Anyway, it's over."

"Well, the teacher is right."

Bai Zi nodded following Luo Lin's words, but before Luo Lin could continue, she took the conversation first.

"Teacher, did you already know the truth behind Senior Hoshino's departure?"

"Frankly, I don't know."

Luo Lin didn't want to hide the meaning of the students in the slightest, and chose to tell the truth directly.

He doesn't need the students to over-mythologize himself, because he knows very well that he is just an ordinary person with some combat experience, and it is normal for unplanned situations to occur in the development of things.

Just like no matter how good and legendary the iron pilot is, he may die from a stray bullet flying from nowhere, and Luo Lin will always make mistakes.

"I just remember that Hoshino's application for withdrawing from school does not have my signature, but after all, it involves the special features of the position of teacher in Kivatos and the different situations of each school. I have no idea whether such an application is valid or not. I have understood it carefully."

"However, judging from the results, it must be untenable."

"Well, that's it."

According to what Luo Lin said, Hoshino answered the words naturally, "Don't worry about my affairs, uncle. It seems that a lot of things happened in Abydos during the time I was away."

"Well, it's true."

Celery shrugged her shoulders, imitating Luo Lin's previous movements and spreading her hands.

"It's again acting together with students from other schools to deceive the Caesars Group, and it's trying to deal with the Caesars PMC's attack."

"Although with the help of many other people and teachers, fortunately, all the bastards from the Caesars Group were driven away."

"Well...I see."

Hoshino thought about it for a while, then as if he suddenly figured out something, he nodded his head vigorously, a few traces of obvious gratitude flashed in his golden and blue pupils.

Although she still doesn't know the full picture of the matter, she is convinced in her heart that Luo Lin's secret plan is indispensable to achieve such a dreamlike miraculous ending.

But right now it's not the time to talk about these things with Luo Lin in detail. The girl rolled her eyes, sat up straight with her petite body, raised her hand and patted the Titan below her, making a muffled "dong dong".

"It's a good thing that the people of the Caesars Group have been defeated, but uncle, I'm also curious about other things now."

"For example... where did this big guy come from? I don't remember that we have such a big robot in Abydos."

"This is my Titan. It should stay by my side for a long time in the future. Come and get to know me."

Luo Lin, who was sitting in the driver's seat, thought for a while, then suddenly leaned forward, and took a step forward without warning.

And the moment he stood up suddenly, the advancing NG seemed to have a tacit understanding with Luo Lin, and the hatch of the cockpit opened automatically.

Luo Lin didn't hesitate, he stepped on the hatch cover, and then he leaped back smoothly with his feet, kicking on NG's steel arms, and easily jumped on top of Titan's head, and sat down among the girls .

"NG, introduce yourself to them?"

"Got it, Rowling."

The thick mechanical voice of NG came, gently responding to Rollin and the girls of Abydos:

"Hello, I am a Vanguard Titan belonging to the Eighth Army of the Frontier Rebel Army, the Second Squadron of the Special Reconnaissance Squadron, number NG-1165, you can call me NG."

"?"

Sure enough, big question marks floated above the heads of the Abydos girls, and they were a little confused by this series of terms they had never heard before.

"W-what... what border? What Rebels? What brigade? What Titans?"

The ears of the black cat on Qin Xiang's head trembled, and a series of questions came out of her mouth, and she turned to look at Luo Lin who was sitting next to him, who looked like he was doing nothing.

"Teacher, aren't you going to explain?"

"What else is there to explain?"

Luo Lin smashed his mouth, seemed to be having a headache, raised his hand and tapped his helmet lightly, and said simply:

"You can understand it this way. The border is my hometown, and the Resistance Army is an organization in my hometown that fights against the invaders. Big guys like NG are Titans, and they are also my comrades in arms."

"correct."

After Luo Lin's voice fell, NG also chimed in:

"Rolin is my iron pilot, and our combat effectiveness score exceeds 95%."

"Pilot..."

Baizi looked down at the huge steel machine under him, then tilted his head to look at Luo Lin, carefully chewed the word "iron pilot" over and over again, and finally nodded seriously.

"Very apt title, teacher. Is this a profession? Is everyone as good as you?"

"It's a profession, but it doesn't mean that every pilot has the ability to participate in battle on the battlefield."

Luo Lin smiled, raised his hand and rubbed Baizi's head, and kneaded her dirty short shoulder-length hair dyed by the wind and sand into a cute bird's nest.

"Anyone who can pilot a Titan can be collectively referred to as Iron Pilots, but there are also different domain divisions among Iron Pilots."

"Or focus on combat, or indulge in scientific research, or simply be proficient in agriculture, and everything else is the same."

"But one thing is certain, although there are differences in ability between iron pilots and iron pilots, as long as someone who can become an iron pilot is definitely already a leader in his corresponding field."

"At least as far as I know and see, the title Iron Pilot still has a lot of gold in it."

"I see."

A look of defiance flashed across Bai Zi's clear pupils, recalling everything that Luo Lin had shown before, and couldn't help agreeing with his words.

Although I haven't seen other iron pilots with my own eyes, but since the teacher said so, then the other iron pilots must be no worse.

'but……'

The keen wolf-eared girl quietly raised her eyes to glance at Luo Lin, but because of the barrier of the helmet, she couldn't see his current expression in her eyes.

'The teacher's powerful strength was cultivated during the enemy's invasion of his hometown, just like Abydos, who has been coveted by the Caesars Group. '

"Just one Caesars Group has made us burnt out, how much pain and training did the teacher go through to become what he is today with ease?" '

' Kind of... wondering what he's thinking right now. '

Compared with paying more attention to the Baizi that Luo Lin had encountered, Nomiya seemed more interested in the border that Luo Lin talked about.

She leaned over excitedly, leaning her body forward halfway to Luo Lin's side, supporting Titan's fuselage with both hands, and her big green eyes were full of interest.

"Teacher, I remember that you are from outside Kivatos, so what kind of place is the border?"

"Hmm... this one."

Luo Lin was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about how to answer, and he seemed to be trying to organize his words.

　"For Kivatos, the border is a very, very far place, so far away that even if you look at the sky with a telescope at night, [-]% of the time you can't see it."

"And the border is a big place, not just a certain city, but a rather vast area with abundant resources, where you can find any lifestyle you want."

The young Tie Yu relaxed his body, put his hands behind his back, raised his head and looked at the endless blue sky, his voice suddenly became very soft.

"Overall, it's beautiful there and I love it."

……

After NG finished introducing himself, the girls in Abydos quickly became familiar with this straightforward and gentle robot.

NG's way of thinking, which always understands questions in a purely literal sense, made the girls laugh several times, even the corners of their mouths under Rollin's helmet couldn't help but twitch.

Facing NG who asked him doubtful questions, Luo Lin could only pat his main camera helplessly, as a useless consolation.

Although NG's intelligence is quite high, in the final analysis, it has not yet broken away from the category of AI, so even if you can joke around, it is difficult to break away from this inherent procedural thinking.

Amidst the laughter, it seemed that the not-so-short journey was completed in a short time.

When he arrived at the gate of Abydos High School, NG kindly knelt down and waited until Luo Lin and the girls jumped off him before slowly standing up straight.

"teacher!"

Ayane's small head poked out from the window of the conference room, and she was obviously taken aback when she saw NG, but then she looked down, her eyes lit up when she saw Hoshino, and she immediately shrank back from the window .

But in just ten seconds, there was a rush of footsteps in the teaching building of the school building.

Ayane, who was always quiet on weekdays, didn't care about other things at this moment, and ran straight to Hoshino, looked around Luo Lin and the other companions, then took a deep breath, with a big and bright smile on her face.
