Chapter 209 Summer Seaside March~
The sports festival is over and I thought summer was coming to an end, but it turns out it’s just the beginning.

It’s hot, so hot that it makes me feel uncomfortable.

Cicadas were chirping loudly in the beech tree outside the teaching building.

Not to mention that the students were all lying on their desks, Fujii Itsuki was also unable to teach at the podium.

Look at the temperature again.

Wow, it’s 40°.

This is almost impossible in the coastal city of Otaru.

The climate here is temperate maritime, and the highest temperature in summer is only 32°.

The meteorological station explained the abnormal temperature as follows:
The frequent occurrence of heat waves caused by global warming has caused a large-scale stagnation of the high-pressure system in the Northern Hemisphere, which has prevented the cold air from moving south and caused the hot air to gather in Otaru and surrounding areas. The long-term existence of the high-pressure system has blocked the cold air brought by the ocean, causing the "heat dome phenomenon" and causing the temperature to continue to rise.

At the faculty meeting, several teachers stood up and filed an appeal, demanding that the school install air conditioners in all classrooms.

Director of the General Affairs Office. In a low voice, he is the one who is in charge of the school expenses.

The director of the General Affairs Office rejected the proposal on the grounds that "it's too late in the season" and "the hot weather won't last for half a month."

The two sides had a heated argument.

It's amazing.

As a teacher at the bottom of the teaching staff, he could actually proactively make demands to the school management and even argue openly.

Jubei is such a magical place.

Fujii Itsuki ate melon with peace of mind.

"Teacher Fujii, what do you think?"

"Ah I?"

Fujii Itsuki, who was secretly dozing off, looked at the teachers who stood up from the conference table, and then looked at the director of the General Affairs Office opposite him.

"Teacher Fujii, you have the most classes in the school. All three second-grade classes need you to teach Chinese. You have the highest say!"

"And after installing the air conditioner, it can be used not only in the summer but also for heating in the winter. But our school still doesn't have a heater!"

"."

Can I just say I want to watch you guys quarrel during the meeting so I can take a break?
Fujii Itsuki himself didn't want to get involved in this matter. For him, the heat was just a matter of endurance. But considering that there were so many lovely students in his class, he had to fight for his life and joined the teacher's protest.

Then these two days, the school was filled with flyers produced by the student union and teachers.

It is used for democratic voting and unified consultation of the opinions of all teachers and students on whether to pretend or not.

The result is obvious.

The teacher's side won.

But then new problems arose.

Air conditioners must be installed uniformly. It is unknown when they will be installed in batches. However, two days on Saturday and weekend are not enough to complete the construction of the whole school, not to mention the planning and updating of the power system.

The director of the General Affairs Office said that we would install it during the holidays.

But that's when it happened.

You can't.

So there was another round of quarrels.

"That's how it is,"

Fujii Itsuki stood on the podium of Class A of the second grade, facing everyone who was curious, "So the school has been arguing for more than a week and the solution they came up with is - give everyone a week off."

"Eh!!!"

There was a collective exclamation in the classroom.

Then the students began to discuss in a variety of ways.

"No, how can I study like this?"

“The progress will be delayed.”

“I still want to go to college.”

Fujii Itsuki motioned for everyone to be quiet. "This is the only solution. The extreme weather has made it impossible to carry out teaching work. During the few days when the heat dome phenomenon is coming, everyone should stay at home to avoid the heat."

"But Mr. Fujii, it's hot at home too!"

"Yes! There is only heating at home, no air conditioning!"

this.
There's nothing Fujii Itsuki can do.

Hokkaido is characterized by cold winters and cool summers.

The holiday was unexpected, but the training of the wind band could not be abandoned. However, since it was difficult to coordinate the schedules of the fifty or sixty people in the entire club, Fujii Itsuki could only let everyone go back and practice more diligently.

When it was time to go home from school, the summer sun was still shining brightly.

The usually energetic Chitose Yang Kui was deflated beside him, hugging Fujii Itsuki's arm and speaking lazily:
"Brother Shu, it's so hot~ so hot~~"

"The fan is blowing in your face."

“But it’s still hot~”

It's not Chitose's fault. She grew up in Otaru and has never experienced such hot weather. 30°C is too hot for her.

Fujii Itsuki is used to living in Tokyo and can handle it a bit.

"We'll have the day off after tomorrow's end."

“But it’s still hot during the holidays~~”

"So where do you want to go, Chitose?"

Yang Kui Chitose immediately perked up, "Hey, let's go to the beach!"

seaside?!
Fujii Itsuki stroked his chin.

"Brother Shu, Brother Shu! How are you? At the beach~ At the beach~~"

"Nice suggestion."

"Then - Brother Shu -!" Yang Kui Chitose became even more excited.

"The Hokkaido representative competition will be held in mid-September, and I'm worried about how to arrange your training during this period. It seems that we can take advantage of this holiday to have a training camp at the seaside. Well, I will talk to the director of the General Affairs Office about this matter tomorrow and ask him for some funds."

"Brother Tree!"

Yang Kui Chitose immediately pouted her lips unhappily.

"What, you don't want to go?"

"I want to go, of course I want to go, but not like this!"

"So how can we go? Going to the beach for training can not only arrange the training during the holidays, but also avoid the heat. Most importantly, we can use the training as an excuse to eat and drink for free and use the school's funds."

".Only the last one is the most important!"

"It's a seafood feast, Chitose, don't you want to eat it?"

"I want to eat, but Brother Shu, this is not the point."

"Isn't the point of the free seafood feast?"

"Brother Shu!" the girl said anxiously, "Hmph, I won't pay any attention to you!"

Yang Kui Chitose pouted her lips, crossed her arms and turned to the side.

Fujii Itsuki just looked at her with a smile, and the result was just as he expected. Within two seconds, the child secretly glanced at him.

"Are we really going to the beach for training?"

"Even if we just want to find a place to escape the heat, we can't leave without Xinchun and Jiuhua."

Yang Kui Chitose muttered, "Brother Shu is always thinking about your two new sisters now."

"Aren't they your good sisters now? If they come to you, will you refuse them?"

"I just said I'm busy, I'm busy."

"It's not good to lie."

"I'm busy dating Brother Shu! Chitose wouldn't lie!"

"Little slippery man."

Smiling, she patted Qiansui's head, stayed by his side for a while, and then left.

The next day, during the morning meeting, Fujii Itsuki squatted at the door of the general affairs office and saw the director who had just arrived at the school to work.

"Teacher Fujii? What's going on?"

"Hey, Director, you know it's been hot these days. Our wind band will be participating in the representative competition in September, so we can't give up on training. I asked everyone in the club, and everyone wants to find a good place to practice in peace, so...so."

The director of the General Affairs Office twitched his mouth. "So, you still want to ask me for money?"

"It's a necessary expense, a necessary expense, sir."

The veins of the director of the General Affairs Office jumped up, "Teacher Fujii, do you know how much money your proposal to install air conditioners for the entire school will increase the school's expenses?"

"Expenses? Isn't that something only you know about?"

The director of the General Affairs Office clenched his right hand, and the briefcase in his hand looked like he was ready to hit someone at any time. "Teacher Fujii, you know that we are a private school. The financial affairs I do are to be reviewed by the school directors. Compared with previous years, there are one, two, and three large expenses for no reason. It is difficult for me to handle it."

"Director, the wind band is different. You have seen the results of our club. Without training, I am not sure I can win the Hokkaido representative competition. How many students can the Hokkaido representative competition bring to our school? Everyone outside calls us a strong school for wind bands."

Fujii Itsuki learned nothing while teaching in Tokyo.

I learned from the school leaders how to make empty promises.

"Oh?"

The director of the General Affairs Office opened his eyes and asked, "Teacher Fujii, what you mean is that as long as we go there, we can win?"

Old fried dough sticks.

He is indeed a seasoned veteran. "Director, I never said that. I can only say that the probability is higher, much higher."

"Teacher Fujii, don't beat around the bush. You can take the club's training fee, but if you don't win the representative competition in September—"

".What will happen?" Fujii Itsuki asked.

"Teacher Fujii, your bonus will be much less. I remember you wanted to buy a car and drive here to work, right? It's really troublesome to take the bus to teach every day."

Ok?
Who leaked the wind?
The director of the General Affairs Office smiled even more and patted Fujii Itsuki on the shoulder, "If you want to buy a car, you'd better fill up your car well. I'm counting on you."

this.
Isn't this forcing myself to win the representative competition?

But no matter what, there is money to go out during the holidays.

What needs to be considered is where to go for fun, but where to go for study.

Fujii Itsuki and Akai Muzi studied for the entire afternoon.

It’s not possible around Hokkaido, the heat dome effect makes the whole Hokkaido hot.

Then the only option is southern Japan.

Okinawa!

Yes, right here!
The summer sun is shining brightly, and the blue sea is shining like bright stars.

Sitting on the sightseeing bus leading to the resort, looking along the golden beach, yachts are speeding on the glass-like transparent waves, and the entire East China Sea is endless.

"The sea! Okinawa!"

"The sea! Okinawa!"

"The sea! Okinawa!"

The students in the car were cheering. Fujii Itsuki opened the window a fingernail-sized gap, and hot air mixed with the smell of the sea blew in his face.

Otaru is also a coastal city.

But there are no such large beaches.

Otaru gives people more of the feeling of a port and a fishing city.

Okinawa is completely an island and a tourist city.

They took a bus from Naha Airport to the city to pack their things, then went from the city to Naha Port, and finally took a boat in batches. The group arrived at their destination, Senaga Island.

There are very typical resorts on Senaga Island.

All rooms have sea views and are stacked up in layers towards the center, with no more than two floors in height. The island has shops, restaurants, and cafes.

It is located next to Senagajima Beach, and offers kayaks and windsurfing rentals.

This was not the first time that Fujii Itsuki had brought his students out.

Before leaving, he and Muzi wrote a safety manual and distributed it to every student in the club.

Check-in is staying at the resort.

For training, Fujii Itsuki used the school's money to rent a multi-purpose hall. Except for some instruments that were too heavy, most students brought their own instruments.

Training is training here.

"Everyone! Gather first!"

After everyone got off the boat, Fujii Itsuki braved the sea breeze and gathered everyone together.

"Do you all know the number of your room?"

"Yes!" everyone answered happily in unison.

"Since we rented so many houses, the areas where everyone lives are also separated by a certain distance. Be sure to be careful not to run around! Remember to go out with your classmates when you go out. You are forbidden to leave the island. Do you understand?"

"understand!"

"Well, disband!"

At Fujii Itsuki's command, everyone cheered and carried their suitcases, and ran to the island to find a house according to the map given to them in advance.

The girls formed groups and looked at the map left and right, not knowing what was going on.

It feels a bit like an island adventure.

"Ah Shu, you're so smart that you take this opportunity to come out and play again."

Fujii Itsuki closed his eyes and let the sea breeze blow his hair. "Last time, everyone won the competition. Didn't we reward everyone properly? At least we should let everyone know that our club has more than just training."

"I think it's Shu. You want to bring everyone to the island to play."

"a part of it."

"Brother Tree, Brother Tree!"

Chitose Yang Kui ran over holding the map.

The girl wore a sunflower sun hat and a white dress, looking very pretty and sunny.

Following behind her were Jiuhua, Xinchun, and Rinka.

Of course, Jiuhua and Xinchun stood far apart from each other.

"how?"

"Our room seems to be next to yours!"

"What a coincidence?" Fujii Itsuki was surprised.

"Yes, yes! It's such a coincidence! Hehe~ Brother Shu, let's go quickly! Let's go and see the room we live in!"

The hotel rooms are completely in the style of a Japanese resort, with modern features, but some places are made of logs. The floor is tatami, with rattan cushions and small wooden tables. Standing by the window and looking out, you can see the blue sea.

"Great!"

The moment Yang Kui Chitose pushed open the door, her eyes lit up.

She put the suitcase aside, lay down on the tatami and rolled around.

"Brother Tree, Brother Tree! This straw mat is so cool!"

Akai Muko couldn't help but laugh at her, "Chitose is still a child."

"It's obviously Sister Muzi, you're old!"

Chitose Yangkui sat on the tatami with her hands behind her back.

"Why not Chitose? You're too young?"

"It's better to be small! You can live many more years!"

"Teacher Fujii, the scenery here is really beautiful."

"Ah."

Fujii Itsuki looked out the window and saw the beach brightened by the sun and the azure blue sea that kept beating inward and creating white waves.

"Xiaoyue, ok, give me the luggage."

"No, I can do it myself."

Rinka and Kuka were placing their luggage in the corner.

After seeing that everyone had packed up, Fujii Itsuki turned around and was about to leave.

"Brother Tree, Brother Tree!"

"What's wrong? You're still jumping over here."

"Hey, how about I go see your room?"

Fujii Itsuki hesitated for a second, then immediately frowned and said, "No!"

"I'm curious~"

"It's all the same. Nothing to see."

"Brother Shu~~" Yang Kui Chitose hugged his arms.

"There's no point in acting like a baby."

Akai Muzi had already guessed what Chitose was thinking and was laughing secretly on the side.

After finally breaking free from Chitose, Fujii Itsuki finally arrived at his room.

"call"

After sitting on the bus and plane for a whole day, when I lay down, it seemed as if all the fatigue in my body disappeared.

Fujii Itsuki probably understood why Chitose was rolling around on the tatami just now, and he also wanted to roll.

Just when he was about to close his eyes.

Muzi suddenly appeared above.

She smiled.

"Ashu."

"I'm listening. I'm listening."

"If you ask me, you've been in a bit of danger these past few days."

"Danger? What's wrong?"

"Look, this is the beach, right? You'll be living under the same roof with Satsuki, Kokoharu, Chitose, and Rinka these few days. They're right next door. I advise you not to attack them just because they look so pretty in their swimsuits during the day. Especially at night, these kids are sleeping next door, and the wall isn't very thick, so there's no sound insulation."

"No, no, I'm not that kind of person."

Fujii Itsuki turned to the other side, closed his eyes and waved his hands behind him, "I came to the beach this time to escape the summer heat and for training. I don't have time to think about these things."

"It better be this way."

Akai Muzi looked at him and just smiled.
