Night fell.
The ski resort was still lively. Even after dark, the schools that had come for the trip were just as noisy as during the day. Going to bed early was nearly impossible.
Shujin Private Academy's travel arrangements were quite good. Students stayed three to a room, while teachers were assigned private rooms.
"Phew…"
He had spent almost the entire day teaching students.
However, this kind of life didn't feel fulfilling. He was originally a first-year physical education teacher, but because something had happened to a second-year teacher, he had been temporarily brought in as a replacement.
"Tsk, teaching those male students all day is really troublesome."
If he could, he would much rather teach the girls. Unfortunately, since he had been temporarily assigned to replace the second-year P.E. teacher, he could only be in charge of the boys.
Lying on the bed, a trace of regret appeared in his eyes.
"If the first-year students had been on this trip, that would have been great."
If the first-year students were here, he wouldn't be in this room alone right now.
As he thought about it, Kamoshida's mind involuntarily filled with images of the well-developed second-year girls.
"Kids these days are developing better and better."
He licked his lips unconsciously as he muttered to himself.
He had been focusing on his first-year students and hadn't yet found the right opportunity to approach the second-years.
The volleyball club was already under his control.
Last year, the club had won the city championship, which gave him enough freedom to turn it into his own personal domain.
"I can start acting this year."
He had already set his sights on many of the attractive first-year girls and had made moves before, but he always kept a degree of restraint. After all, on the surface, he still had to maintain the image of a good teacher who cared deeply for his students.
Even in front of the girls he had already manipulated, he made sure to preserve that façade. Everything he did was to build his influence within the school.
Unrestricted authority, that was his goal.
Kamoshida knew that Shujin Private Academy desperately needed results.
Ordinary schools might not be so anxious, but their principal was a different story. He had only reached his position through connections.
If he couldn't produce results to secure his position, the principal would be the first to be removed.
Since the principal had something he needed, it was only natural that he would turn a blind eye to some of Kamoshida's actions.
That was Kamoshida's way of proving his worth.
"Hehehehe…"
As soon as he thought about it, Kamoshida could no longer contain his excitement and let out a quiet, twisted laugh.
After a moment, he quickly calmed himself.
In front of most people, he still needed to maintain his image. He couldn't let anyone see this side of him.
Kamoshida was skilled at acting and equally skilled at controlling his impulses.
That was how he had managed to steadily expand his control within the school.
However, sometimes supernatural abilities defied logic.
In the alternate dimension, in that world tinged with dark gray, a young girl clearly saw the emotions hidden deep within the P.E. teacher's heart.
"Scumbag teacher."
After hearing his thoughts just now, anyone would understand what kind of person he truly was.
A cute, expressionless face showed an unmistakable look of disgust.
"Such a disgusting teacher perfectly fits the image of a bad person."
Indeed, a scumbag teacher who was good at acting was rotten to the core, precisely because he was so skilled at maintaining his appearance.
Hayasaka suppressed her emotions, turned off the camcorder in her hand, checked that all the footage had been recorded, and then opened the door to return to the villa.
Inside, Kaguya was already waiting, reading a book.
When she saw Hayasaka return, Kaguya closed her book.
"How was it?"
"Even worse than what Chika said. He's a complete scumbag."
"When teaching male students, he shows obvious impatience. But when he talks about female students, the expression in his eyes is something any girl would understand. He's skilled at controlling his desires and hiding his thoughts, and he's clearly planning something behind the scenes."
Hayasaka summarized everything she had observed.
In short, he was a scumbag teacher preying on his students.
After finishing her report, Hayasaka placed the camcorder in front of Kaguya.
"Please take a look."
"Okay."
Under Hayasaka's operation, Kaguya began watching the footage.
The recording wasn't long, only about fifteen minutes, but within those fifteen minutes, a lot could be seen.
Previously, Kaguya's understanding of the term "scumbag" was limited to her older brother. But today, she truly saw something different.
"His expressions are too easy to read."
"The intention of using his position to target his students is blatantly obvious. But I have to admit, this teacher really is good at acting."
As she spoke, Kaguya glanced toward Hayasaka.
"Hayasaka…"
"I might be good at acting and controlling emotions, but I've never worn such a disgusting smile. Please don't insult me." Hayasaka knew Kaguya too well. The moment she saw that look, she already understood what her mistress was thinking. So before Kaguya could even finish her sentence, she cut her off with a sharp response.
This matter was closely tied to her reputation.
In the past, she often watched videos of various objects being crushed by hydraulic presses.
But that was before she confessed to Kaguya. Since that confession, she no longer needed such stress relief.
And she would never, under any circumstances, make such a perverted smile.
Kaguya was momentarily speechless, but she knew Hayasaka would never do something so disgusting.
After a pause, she closed the camcorder.
"Ren said the situation at that school is special. Someone there probably possesses supernatural powers, and even we might be affected. We'll need to manage this carefully."
"Hayasaka, don't make any moves in reality for now."
"Wait until Ren's operation is over before we take action."
