"Teacher Shiratori! Teacher Shiratori! You can't leave!"
Yotsuba leaped and clung tightly to Hakuto, who was sitting on his motorcycle, like a koala, refusing to let go.
"Teacher Shiratori! I can't live without you!"
"(๑•ี_เ•ี๑)?" Hakuto looked at Yotsuba hanging off him, a bit confused for a moment.
"Yotsuba!! Why did you come down? Wait! What do you think you're doing?!"
Just moments ago, Nino, who had been immersed in happiness, instantly lost her composure when she saw Yotsuba clinging to Hakuto.
"Yeah, what's this 'can't live without Teacher Shiratori' talk? He's not dying or anything," Itsuki also chimed in from the side.
"Huh? Itsuki, why did you come down too?"
"Nino... why didn't you tell me Shiratori was downstairs...?"
"Miku's here too... Haha..." Nino waved her hand, not wanting to engage in that conversation.
Hakuto, hearing Itsuki's words, couldn't help but complain inwardly.
Actually, he might actually die...
If it weren't for this situation, he'd never quit his tutoring job. After all, it was a really high-paying job!
"Alright, Yotsuba, you can let go now."
"No, no, no!"
"Stop being so stubborn!"
Hakuto directly gave Yotsuba a chop on her head and threw her off him.
"Ouch! Teacher Shiratori, that hurts..." Yotsuba, tearfully rubbing her forehead, looked pitiful.
Miku walked up to Hakuto and poked his arm, softly asking, "Shiratori... why did you suddenly quit?"
"Something came up at school, and it's pretty important..." Hakuto took off his helmet and smiled.
"And it's not exactly quitting... it's just that I won't be able to come for a few months."
"Is there a lot going on at school?"
"Yeah, it's quite complicated, I need to go..."
Right, Hakuto had to go. If he didn't, there'd be no one else who could.
Shunsuke had already blinded himself trying to save him, and if Hakuto just ignored this, he'd really be shameless.
"Teacher Shiratori... I still haven't gotten first place. Please don't go!"
"I'm not dying!!" Hakuto really wanted to slap Yotsuba, who was acting like she was mourning.
At this point, Hakuto usually avoided such topics, but Yotsuba was putting it right in his face.
"Alright, alright, my dear students, once I finish things at school, I'll come back."
"I'll bring gifts for you when I return, but of course, if any of you slack off on your studies, there will be consequences..."
Hakuto clapped his hands. "By the way, I gave my house keys to Nino. So, Miku, you can go with her and get your share of the gift."
"Even if I don't get first place... will there still be gifts?"
"Of course, I'll give you your gift in advance, but you still need to earn that first place back," Hakuto smiled.
Hakuto really liked his obedient clients, like the Nakano sisters.
Yotsuba and Itsuki pretty much listened to everything he said, and so did Nino and Miku. The only one who might be harder to handle was Ichika.
But even Ichika was nothing compared to the likes of Nao and Ginko.
Especially Nao. Hakuto just couldn't handle her... but now wasn't the time to think about that.
Clients, making money... he'd have to put that aside for the next few months... it still felt a bit strange...
Miku took Hakuto's hand, feeling the warmth in his hand.
Right now, she wasn't interested in gifts. She just cared about the fact that Hakuto had quit.
"Can I go to Hoshinoumi to visit you, Shiratori?" Miku asked softly, blushing.
"You can, but I most likely won't be there..."
"Oh... but why can't you even answer the phone...?"
"It's not intentional. If I could, I'd rather stay as your tutor."
If he could, Hakuto still preferred a stable life. The supercomputer was great, but it also brought a lot of trouble.
All he could say was that there were pros and cons. Once he got through this trouble, the rest would be all good...
Nino watched the way Miku was acting, took a deep breath, and didn't do anything else.
She'd already gotten enough for today. Letting her sisters have their time wasn't a big deal...
Nino had actually thought about what would happen if she and her sisters really reached that point.
But every time she thought about it, Nino would remember what happened at the psychological counseling during the school event.
Family is more important than lovers...
Nino looked at Hakuto sitting on his motorcycle, shaking her head.
Hakuto occupied a huge space in her heart. Nino was never going to let him go to her sisters...
Σ(ﾟдﾟlll)?! At that moment, Nino suddenly realized!
Could Hakuto be running a harem?! No way, no way?!!
Wait! It's possible...
Because Nino thought that if Hakuto didn't choose her in the future but still had the idea of running a harem...
Nino felt like she might just throw herself into it... and she wasn't kidding. It really seemed very likely...
Wait... Nino looked at Miku and the others beside her. It wasn't just her.
Nino felt like others might do the same too...
Each of the five sisters had some bond with Hakuto, and Hakuto hadn't rejected these bonds.
If it wasn't a harem in the end...
"What is this, some fake romance novel?!!" Nino couldn't help but shout, completely forgetting that there were people standing next to her.
"Hmm? What fake romance novel?"
"What's Nino talking about? Wait... I still haven't gotten back at you yet."
Yotsuba rolled up her sleeves, ready to confront Nino. Though she couldn't beat her tutor, she could definitely take on her sister.
"Huh? Yotsuba, what's up?"
"Why didn't you tell me Teacher Shiratori was downstairs?"
"Wait... wait!" Nino looked at Yotsuba's angry expression and quickly turned her eyes.
Anyway, her goal had been achieved, and Hakuto was leaving, so there was no point in staying here.
Might as well... escape!!
But just as Nino turned her head, Hakuto spoke up.
"Alright, everyone, see you in a few months."
Hakuto retracted his hand that Miku had been holding, put on his helmet, and waved at the four of them.
"Remember, school."
"Ah, Teacher Shiratori, you're leaving already. At least say something nice..."
"Well..." Hakuto thought for a moment. "Wait for me to return?"
