“This Hanyu definitely has a problem,” after class ended, Gojo Satoru tilted his legs up on the desk and clamored with extreme dissatisfaction. His whole demeanor was like a delinquent boy, although he was not much different to begin with.
Shoko, on the other hand, held a certain degree of goodwill toward this newly arrived teacher, even though she knew the other party was sent by the higher-ups. Still, being able to make her two classmates suffer a setback was pretty impressive.
“It is not very good to let embarrassment turn into anger.”
“Huh? Me, turning embarrassment into anger?” Gojo Satoru had a face of total disbelief, “The Six Eyes tell me that Hanyu Gen has clearly trained before, he is not at all like an ordinary person as he claims on the surface.”
Regarding this point, Geto Suguru also nodded in agreement, “I also think Teacher Hanyu is not as simple as he seems on the surface. When he was handing out books, the forearm muscles exposed were very firm, he should be someone who exercises regularly…”
Before he could finish his words, Geto Suguru noticed that Ieiri Shoko kept looking at him with a strange look, making him stop talking subconsciously, “…What is wrong?”
Ieiri Shoko said with great interest, “I did not expect you to observe so carefully, Suguru. Are you very interested in Teacher Hanyu?”
“You could put it that way.” Geto Suguru thought for a moment and nodded, “After all, if nothing unexpected happens, he will be our teacher for the next two years. I am indeed very interested in him.”
“If there are no unexpected occurrences, we will create unexpected occurrences. I do not want a guy like that standing over our heads for two years, let us prank him together!” Gojo Satoru said immediately, an excited expression revealing itself in his eyes behind the sunglasses, “I want to see what exactly this Hanyu Gen is hiding!”
“Address him as Teacher Hanyu.”
Although he said so, Geto Suguru clearly did not refute Gojo Satoru’s plan, carrying quite a bit of implicit agreement in his tone.
Ieiri Shoko took a step back instead. She had no interest in participating in the tricks of childish high school boys, “Do not count me in. I still want to experience the curriculum of a normal school properly.”
Over on the other side, Yaga Masamichi brought Hanyu Gen, who had finished his class, to the dormitory building. Although the High School had few people, the dormitories were still large enough. One bedroom and one living room, with pretty good lighting. Hanyu Gen’s material desires had always been low, so he was quite satisfied with this dormitory.
After Yaga Masamichi left, he simply tidied up the room and set up the daily necessities he brought.
Right now was the vacation time for normal schools, but Jujutsu sorcerers did not take vacations, so Hanyu Gen arrived ahead of time. However, the first-year students would appear according to the normal school opening time, so Hanyu Gen could not see them yet.
Before he finished tidying up, the phone rang.
Hanyu Gen took a look at the caller ID, which showed “Bandage Freak”. Thinking of what the other party had done, he raised his eyebrows and answered the call, “Hello?”
“Gen, how is it? Are you adjusting well on your first day as a teacher? If you are not used to it, you should really come work at the Armed Detective Agency instead!” As soon as the call was connected, Dazai Osamu’s high-pitched voice came through in a barrage. He sounded as if he truly had his best interests at heart.
However, Hanyu Gen was not touched in the slightest, his expression calm without a ripple. Through this string of words, he finally guessed the question he had not understood before, “So you tricked me into this school just to get me to work at the Armed Detective Agency?”
“That is right!” Dazai Osamu was clearly very righteous and confident, even asking in return, “Are you angry?”
“No. You know I will not get angry.” Hanyu Gen’s expression was calm, “Nor will I resign.”
Back then, Hanyu Gen’s request was to go to a school to be a teacher. Dazai Osamu specially came to make a bet with him, saying that if he resigned from the school within a year, he would have to go to work at the Armed Detective Agency.
Hanyu Gen, who originally thought he could completely adapt to the life of an ordinary person and be a good teacher, had never expected back then that the other party would collaborate with the Special Division for Unusual Powers to trick him into coming to the Jujutsu High School.
It ran completely counter to his wish of being an ordinary person.
Despite being dissatisfied with his current situation, Hanyu Gen had no intention of letting Dazai Osamu have his way. He would not get angry, but he also did not like being left at someone else’s mercy.
Currently, it did not seem too bad either, except that the students were slightly more opinionated. Hanyu Gen felt that he could still accept it. Or rather, compared to certain guys, these three students seemed fairly decent at the moment.
Hanging up the phone, he continued tidying up the room. By the time he finished, it was already eleven-thirty in the morning. Hanyu Gen glanced at the time and prepared to go eat.
Normally speaking, Teacher Yaga should have been the one to take him to the cafeteria and familiarize him with the school environment along the way. However, Teacher Yaga received an emergency mission and did not dare leave Hanyu Gen alone with those three students.
The third-year students had all gone out on missions, so he could only apologize and leave him to find his own way.
“Who are you!”
Hanyu Gen was strolling through the campus looking for the way to the cafeteria when two female students walking together saw him and immediately became vigilant.
The female student wearing a shrine maiden outfit assumed a combat stance, asking him sternly about his identity, “Who are you? How did you appear at the High School?”
Movements are too slow, full of flaws all over, can be easily defeated. Hanyu Gen’s golden eyes behind the lenses were filled with carelessness as he simply analyzed the danger level of the other party.
He raised both hands, making a gesture of surrender, “Do not get excited, I am Hanyu Gen, the new general subjects teacher at the school. You two are… third-year students Iori Utahime and Mei Mei, right?”
These two female students, the one who spoke earlier was wearing a shrine maiden outfit, her long black hair scattered behind her, pinned into a ponytail with a bow hairclip.
The other had blue hair, different from Hanyu Gen’s, her blue hair was much lighter. The black clothes highlighted her tall figure, standing a full one hundred and seventy-something centimeters.
Among the information Hanyu Gen received, those who liked to act together and possessed these traits should only be these two people.
Sure enough, hearing that he was a new teacher at the High School, Iori Utahime froze for a moment. She had not heard this news, but the other party’s performance was too natural, making her unsure.
Moreover, this person claiming to be a teacher was very handsome, looking very refined. He did not look like a bad person.
Hanyu Gen let out a sigh, giving them an out, “By the way, I want to go to the cafeteria right now, but I do not know the way. Could you two students take me there?”
Hearing this, the two female students looked at each other and unanimously let out a breath of relief. At this point in time, the students at school should have all gone to the cafeteria, which could easily suppress the vast majority of people. So no matter what identity the man in front of them had, once he reached the cafeteria, he would not be able to whip up any big waves.
“Then let us go to the cafeteria.”
On the way, Hanyu Gen saw that both female students were very wary of him. So he took the initiative to speak, “I am responsible for teaching the entire High School. If there is anything you want to learn, you can tell me, and if possible, I will teach what you are interested in first.”
“Want to learn how to make money,” Mei Mei answered. In her view, everything that could not be converted into money was a useless object.
Iori Utahime shook her head instead, “I do not have anything I particularly like. If I had to say, will there be music classes?”
Soon, they arrived at the cafeteria. Walking in, the three students Hanyu Gen had just met this morning were all inside.
He greeted them, and both Geto Suguru and Ieiri Shoko responded amicably.
Only Gojo Satoru, seeing the three of them entering together, mocked, “So weak, Hanyu Gen, you actually banded together with Utahime and the others!”
Seeing that the three second-year students had already met Hanyu Gen, Iori Utahime and Mei Mei both set their minds at ease.
Hearing Gojo Satoru’s words, Iori Utahime was bristling with anger, “We are seniors! And this one is a teacher! Show some respect!”
Meanwhile, Hanyu Gen, who directly faced Gojo Satoru’s mock, had no intention of getting angry at all, calmly going over there to get his food.
The High School operated on a self-serve dish system, with various dishes already served and placed in tin trays, supplied without limit. Stir-fried bean sprouts, cold shredded tofu, sweet and sour pork… and finally, yogurt as a drink.
However, there was only one bottle of yogurt left. Hanyu Gen did not take it, intending to leave it for other students.
Seeing him pick up the yogurt and put it back down, Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru implicitly exchanged a glance. Geto Suguru raised his voice and said, “Teacher, once the yogurt runs out it will be replenished very soon, you do not need to save it and leave it for others.”
Utahime also saw Hanyu Gen’s action, hastily saying, “Teacher, you do not need to mind us, we do not really like drinking yogurt.”
Hearing this, Hanyu Gen looked at the yogurt in his hand thoughtfully.
It was very normal for Iori Utahime to say so, but Geto Suguru was a bit abnormal. Although what the other party displayed was indeed respecting teachers and honoring teachings, paying so much attention to him was clearly problematic.
“Then alright.” Hanyu Gen made a decision in his mind, going with the flow as he picked up that box of yogurt, asking as he walked, “Have all three of you taken yogurt?”
Shoko nodded, shaking the yogurt in her hand. Geto Suguru also displayed the yogurt he placed by the edge of the table. As for Gojo Satoru, he had already finished drinking his yogurt long ago and thrown it into the trash bin.
When Hanyu Gen walked past the three of them holding his food tray, he bumped the corner of the table, knocking down the yogurt Geto Suguru had placed on the table’s edge.
He hurriedly squatted down, picked up the yogurt, and handed it to Geto Suguru, “Apologies, I accidentally knocked your yogurt down.”
Geto Suguru suspected nothing, “It is fine.”
Gojo Satoru, on the other hand, cast a somewhat suspicious look at Hanyu Gen, then looked at Geto Suguru. In the end, he still did not speak, sitting quietly in place.
Geto Suguru quickly finished his food, unwrapped the yogurt straw, inserted it, and took a big gulp without any defense.
“Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough!”
The next second, he only felt the mustard taste rush straight to the top of his head, choking him so much that tears and snot flowed, coughing incessantly. “Water! Cough, cough, cough, cough! Give me water!”
Looking at his state, he was afraid he would choke to faintness in the next moment. The power of mustard was terrifying to such an extent.
Shoko still possessed camaraderie toward her classmate, pouring a glass of plain boiled water for him as requested, and Geto Suguru immediately gulped it down in large mouthfuls.
Utahime and Mei Mei looked over here in surprise, clearly not knowing what had happened. However, seeing Geto Suguru suffer a setback, Utahime still revealed a gloating smile.
Gojo Satoru, meanwhile, pointed at Geto Suguru and laughed loudly, “Hahahahaha! Suguru, you are way too lame! Did you really not notice that your yogurt was swapped by Hanyu just now?”
With the help of plain water, Geto Suguru was already able to open his eyes. Hearing Gojo Satoru’s words, he subconsciously looked up at Hanyu Gen.
Hanyu Gen was still maintaining that gentle appearance, holding up the yogurt in his hand and smiling at him.
Geto Suguru: “…”
He was in the wrong first, so naturally he could not blame Teacher Hanyu for launching a counterattack. Moreover, he was a very smart person and had already guessed that it must have happened during that small episode just now.
Human observer Shoko, seeing the interaction between them, rested her chin on one hand, smiling with great interest, “Teacher Hanyu is indeed very interesting.”
Suddenly, Geto Suguru remembered something again, snapping his head toward Gojo Satoru, “You noticed Teacher Hanyu swap the yogurt just now? Then why did you not remind me?”
Gojo Satoru shrugged, wearing an expression of enjoying the show and not minding if things grew bigger, “Hanyu already noticed there was something wrong with the yogurt, but the mustard yogurt I painstakingly prepared cannot be wasted, right? So you took the fall on my behalf, Suguru.”
Geto Suguru revealed a “kind and gentle” smile, his fist rock hard, “Satoru, do not leave after finishing your meal, let us go to the training ground to connect our feelings.”
The alliance the two of them had just formed for a day against Teacher Hanyu collapsed instantly.
Hanyu Gen pushed up his glasses, hiding his achievement and fame deep within.
