Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Familiarizing with the Environment

"This is Teacher Matsuzaka Ume from our Rose Class."

A tall figure with long, dark green hair proactively walked out from behind Takakura Bunta, came before Kobayashi Itsuki, swept a strand of hair from her ear, and flicked it lightly, brushing Ageo Masumi's face next to her.

Her movements were natural and fluid, appearing exceptionally confident and poised.

"Hello, I'm Matsuzaka Ume."

"I'm from Roppongi, I usually enjoy listening to opera, visiting art exhibitions, occasionally doing yoga, and baking at home. I'm currently single."

"Hello, Teacher Matsuzaka, nice to meet you. Please guide me in the future."

Kobayashi Itsuki said with a smile, a hint of admiration in his eyes as he looked at Matsuzaka Ume.

It had to be said, although Matsuzaka Ume often caused hilarious situations in the original work,

and had a minor flaw of being a bit vain.

But she was still a very good person, very loving and gentle. Whenever Shin-chan was in trouble, she would complain but still help him.

Besides that, she was indeed a rare beauty.

Even in his previous life, an era of prevalent artificial beauty, Matsuzaka Ume's looks were still quite striking.

As for how much of that self-introduction was true, that was hard to say.

Anyway, from Kobayashi Itsuki's understanding,

The Roppongi hometown part was false; Matsuzaka Ume's hometown was in the countryside.

As for listening to opera, visiting art exhibitions, and so on... Kobayashi Itsuki didn't have much impression of those, so he figured they were probably just part of her persona.

The only thing he remembered was her love for buying luxury goods, and how she was always strapped for cash at the end of each month.

While Kobayashi Itsuki was observing Matsuzaka Ume, she was also observing him.

Her first impression of this new colleague was quite good.

Although Kobayashi Itsuki was a struggling writer in his previous life, his own foundation was quite good; he was very handsome.

This could also be seen from his experiences in this world.

If he were ugly, he wouldn't have had so many senior and junior female students willing to 'deeply interact' with him in college.

Moreover, from their conversation, his personality was also enthusiastic and cheerful, exactly the type she liked.

'If his family background is also good, that would be even better...'

As Matsuzaka Ume thought, she was already struggling to control her facial expressions.

Having a crush-prone personality just like Himawari and Misae, in such a short time, she had already started imagining scenarios of them dating.

Yoshinaga Midori, standing behind her, twitched her lips, reached out, placed a hand on Matsuzaka Ume's shoulder, and pushed her aside.

She didn't want to see this person embarrass herself in front of the new colleague, thereby affecting all of their images.

"Hello, I'm Yoshinaga Midori, the teacher for the Sunflower Class."

"Let's work hard together from now on."

Yoshinaga Midori said to Kobayashi Itsuki with a smile.

Compared to Matsuzaka Ume, Yoshinaga Midori was not as outstanding in appearance, but she was very pleasant to look at, with a gentle temperament like a girl next door.

"Mm! Let's work hard together."

Kobayashi Itsuki also nodded with a smile, and then, to the system's prompt, two more white treasure chests appeared.

"From now on, everyone will be colleagues. If you have any difficulties, help each other out."

Takakura Bunta said happily as he watched the scene.

"Teacher Kobayashi, it's time for lunch at our Kindergarten. Please join us today."

"Thank you, Principal."

Kobayashi Itsuki politely thanked him, then walked out of the office with the others towards the kitchen.

"Every day at this time, we have to take the duty students from our respective classes to the kitchen to get lunch and bring it to the classroom, then eat with everyone..."

On the way, Yoshinaga Midori meticulously explained the work process to Kobayashi Itsuki.

"It's really good to have Teacher Kobayashi now; sometimes the meals are so heavy I can barely carry them."

"Can we ask Teacher Kobayashi for help from now on?"

Matsuzaka Ume looked at Kobayashi Itsuki with a smile in her eyes, saying playfully, a sight that made Yoshinaga Midori roll her eyes silently.

"Of course, no problem. Isn't helping each other what colleagues are for?"

Kobayashi Itsuki naturally wouldn't let go of such an opportune moment.

This was part of the job anyway, and it could also increase his favorability, killing two birds with one stone.

Following the others and helping them carry the meals that were difficult for the duty students to handle to the classrooms, Kobayashi Itsuki also showed his face to the children and made a simple self-introduction.

Although he hadn't formally learned the children's names to trigger treasure chests, it served as a good groundwork.

After delivering to the Tulip class, there was also the Rose Class.

Kobayashi Itsuki brought the meals to the final Sunflower Class.

"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Kobayashi. Please have lunch with us in the Sunflower Class later."

"If it's no trouble."

"It's no trouble at all, but Teacher Kobayashi should bring his own bowl and chopsticks tomorrow..."

Yoshinaga Midori said as she opened the classroom door and walked in with Kobayashi Itsuki, one after the other.

"Eh! The person with the police big sister!"

"Little Midori, is this your boyfriend?"

Just as he entered the classroom, amidst the clamor, Kobayashi Itsuki heard Nohara Shinnosuke's clear voice.

The first sentence was directly ignored by Yoshinaga Midori, but the second sentence made her blush slightly.

"Dazed..."

"Shin-chan!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"This is Teacher Kobayashi, the new Physical Education Teacher at the Kindergarten."

Yoshinaga Midori looked at Shin-chan and quickly corrected his inaccurate statement.

"A new Physical Education Teacher?"

This sentence clearly interested the children in the class more.

After all, not everyone was as precocious as Shin-chan and Kazama; the other children were still quite normal.

"Yes, my name is Kobayashi Itsuki, and I am your new Physical Education Teacher. From now on, I will learn and live with everyone, so please bear with me."

Kobayashi Itsuki smiled and greeted the children in the class, then felt someone patting his thigh.

"Don't worry, Itsuki, I'll take good care of you. By the way, what kind of girl do you like? I like someone like Akina Nakamori..."

As he spoke, Shin-chan showed an embarrassed expression, covered his face, and wiggled around.

"Shin-chan, you must call him Teacher Kobayashi; don't be impolite."

Yoshinaga Midori pressed down on Shin-chan's head, making him bow to Kobayashi Itsuki.

"Sorry, Teacher Kobayashi."

"It's alright, it's alright, he's a very cute child."

"Right?"

"Little Midori, that's why you don't have a boyfriend."

Shin-chan shrugged, shaking his head with a helpless expression, truly a mischievous and annoying child.

"Shin-chan!"

Yoshinaga Midori said each word, gritting her teeth.

Watching their interaction, Kobayashi Itsuki, holding a tray, found it particularly interesting.
