After Golden Week, there wasn't much change for students preparing for exams, at least for Aki Tomoya, there was no change in his schedule.
Compared to those who had fun during Golden Week, because his routine was already relatively regular, Aki Tomoya didn't need to adjust his state and even wanted to increase his efforts.
During Golden Week, Aki Tomoya's life, which involved traveling between school, Aomine Cram School, and home, gradually showed a tendency towards becoming uneventful.
But in fact, his surroundings were not without change.
For example, a Teacher was added to the Academy.
It's not surprising that an Academy would have another Teacher, but it is surprising that an Academy like Aomine Cram School, whose economic situation has only recently improved slightly, can still afford to hire another cram Teacher.
This matter truly brought some joy to Aki Tomoya's heart.
Because during the month spent with Mr. Tsubota, Aki Tomoya really liked it here.
It might not be like other famous Academies that can occupy a small plot of land in a place like Tokyo. It's just located in an inconspicuous place in the metropolis, and Academies of this size are everywhere.
But there is a good Teacher here. From the bottom of his heart, Aki Tomoya respects this Teacher.
In Aki Tomoya's heart, among the Teachers he can remember, there will be another face like Mr. Tsubota.
The fact that the Academy has the capacity to hire another cram Teacher not only indicates that the Academy's economic situation has improved but also reduces the pressure on Mr. Tsubota.
Although Aomine Cram School is small, with about ten students, it caters to different target Universities for each person, and the teaching methods for each student are also different. How much effort does he put in?
In Mr. Tsubota, Aki Tomoya sees that he can switch different teaching methods for different students and formulate different plans for everyone, because his responsibility is to send the students here to their desired Universities.
It's not just the students who are stressed when preparing for exams; the Teacher responsible for teaching is also tense while accepting the trust from each student.
Aki Tomoya saw the shadow of his high school homeroom Teacher from his previous life in the sense of responsibility revealed by Mr. Tsubota, but unlike Mr. Tsubota, his homeroom Teacher had a bit of a hot temper and was a typical person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
In short, having a new cram Teacher in the Academy is a good thing from all aspects.
On one hand, it indicates that the Academy's operation is improving.
On the other hand, Mr. Tsubota will have less pressure, and the extra energy will allow his teaching quality to improve. This is good news for students, Teachers, and the Academy alike.
Seeing Aomine Cram School getting better, Aki Tomoya's confidence in getting into Tokyo University increased.
"Everyone, let me introduce the Academy's new cram Teacher, Harumi Junko Sensei! She will be providing tutoring assistance to you all along with me from now on!"
As the long-standing pillar of Aomine Cram School, Mr. Tsubota, holding the banner high, took advantage of the brief free time when the students had just arrived to introduce the new cram Teacher, Harumi Junko, to the students in the Academy.
Mr. Tsubota's tone was quite formal, as if at this time, he was properly acting as a qualified senior.
"Harumi Sensei, please!"
After he finished speaking, he extended his hand and made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Harumi Junko could begin her self-introduction.
Harumi Junko took a deep breath, stepped forward, and with the best smile she could muster recently on her sweet face, said, "I am Harumi Junko, and I will be providing academic tutoring to everyone along with Tsubota-sensei from now on. Please take care of me!"
Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap—
Just clap!
After the self-introduction, everyone returned to their seats and got into the zone, while Mr. Tsubota was quietly introducing the situation of each student in the Academy to Harumi Junko on the side.
Aki Tomoya pushed up his glasses. How should he describe his impression of this new cram Teacher...?
She doesn't seem like someone who would work in this kind of Academy!
From her expensive clothing, he had a preliminary understanding of her family background.
Having an excellent family background, yet working in such a small place.
Her sweet appearance is a plus, and she might have a good family background, but the aura of a loser occasionally emanates from her.
Excellent appearance, but looking as decadent as a middle-aged man.
Under this subtle sense of incongruity, this new cram Teacher, Harumi Junko, truly seems full of negative energy.
Now, rather than the Academy's operation improving, Aki Tomoya feels more like someone took pity on her and gave her a job.
But if Harumi Junko's family background is good, does she need to accept this charity?
Aki Tomoya couldn't quite figure it out. Perhaps she's here to experience life.
Harumi Junko's appearance, if you ignore her excellent looks, is actually not much different from those office workers who are frustrated in the workplace.
"Eh, Tokyo University?!"
Suddenly, at this moment, Harumi Junko's surprised voice rang out, and the expression on her face was as if she had heard something unbelievable, unable to suppress the astonishment in her heart.
The question is, how many people in the entire Aomine Cram School aspire to get into Tokyo University?
The answer is undoubtedly, only Aki Tomoya. The aspirations of the other students are almost all private Universities.
Because this is a very realistic problem. To study for national and public Universities, you have to review seven subjects, while to study for private Universities, you only need to deal with the scope of questions for the corresponding department in their school's internal exam.
Of course, what surprised Harumi Junko was the point about Tokyo University!
In this kind of Academy, someone choosing Tokyo University as their aspiration, no matter how you think about it, there's something wrong, is this Academy defrauding students?!
It's no wonder Harumi Junko is so surprised. As someone who failed to get into Tokyo University and then became a loser, she understands the twists and turns and hardships of this goal better than most people.
"Please keep your voice down, Harumi Sensei!"
Mr. Tsubota quickly told Harumi Junko to calm down, while his heart, unlike his outwardly calm demeanor, was filled with various worries at this moment.
Was it really the right decision for the president to hire this Harumi Sensei in front of him?
According to what he learned from the president, this Harumi Sensei in front of him is the kind of person who has nowhere else to go.
With Harumi Junko's constant unconscious emanation of a gloomy aura, it's no wonder she was fired by the previous Academy.
But failed adults like this are not rare species; it just depends on whether the opportunity given to her can be seized.
"I'm sorry!"
Harumi Junko realized her Gaffe, and at the same time, her peripheral vision couldn't help but glance at Aki Tomoya, who was unmoved by the commotion just now.
Having never had a real relationship, experiencing career setbacks, losing her life goal after failing to get into Tokyo University, and being thrown into the cycle of failure, Harumi Junko couldn't help but lament her tragic life in her heart.
Unemployed before Golden Week, and after a miserable Golden Week, if she still repeated the steps of failure after accepting the kindness of the elderly, then her life might be completely over!
At this moment in Aomine Cram School, Harumi Junko suddenly realized that even here, she was still the biggest loser, not daring to have any more extravagant hopes, losing her goal, and feeling lost before her eyes.
