The door opened.
A man appeared.
He must have been busy.
He looked a bit worn out.
Actually, Nakano Maruo was very busy too, but he had to make this trip for his daughters. Luckily, the person he needed to ask was his neighbor, which solved a problem he didn't want to talk about.
"Hiko?"
Natsuhiko nodded in response.
"Uncle Nakano, come in! It's not good to just stand in the doorway!"
Nakano Maruo obediently nodded.
It must be said.
Nakano Maruo was truly an elite in the real sense. His hair was neatly styled, and his black suit was crisp. He probably came directly from work without going home first.
Natsuhiko guessed silently.
That was probably right.
After taking a sip of tea, Nakano Maruo gave a polite smile, straightened his back, and spoke.
"I'll get straight to the point, Natsuhiko."
"I hope you can become the five sisters' family tutor."
His words were neither too friendly nor too distant, perhaps like lukewarm water that was slightly sticky. It wasn't uncomfortable, but it also didn't make people feel uneasy.
It must be a matter of professional training.
"I've already heard. Coincidentally, they're in my class after they transferred schools."
"Oh, really? That's quite a coincidence."
Nakano Maruo gave a smile like that.
"So, you've already agreed to be their family tutor?"
Of course, not counting the fact that his paper-thin wives were coming from the two-dimensional world into the three-dimensional world, just the five times the points of youth he would get would make him take the job.
Natsuhiko nodded in agreement.
"Actually, they have a lot of problems."
Nakano Maruo gave a wry smile.
"Our family's tutoring job is one that even normal teachers find difficult to handle, so I can pay you five times the market price. I hope you can tutor them until they graduate."
"Right now, I want to find someone who isn't too much older to be their tutor. I've also learned a bit about you. After all, as a student with perfect scores in all subjects and first place in the practice exams, your ability should be unquestionable!"
Nakano Maruo carefully considered.
Of course.
He had indeed investigated some of Natsuhiko's related information. It wouldn't take long to investigate related people in his circle, and it would even be easy.
In fact.
What troubled him was the money.
The young man in front of him wasn't someone simple, and he didn't lack money either.
Five times the market price was something he had thought about carefully.
Even if someone didn't need money, he still needed to show some sincerity.
As for giving gifts or other things, it would be awkward to mention it because of their neighborly relationship.
To be honest.
Five times the salary was no different from a normal salary for Natsuhiko. It was just small change, not even enough for him to eat a meal of famous international cuisine.
Of course, Natsuhiko didn't pretend to be noble and refuse the payment.
"I happen to have a lot of free time in the evenings, and the five sisters happen to be my classmates. It's really too bad that their teacher had to transfer schools. Don't worry, Uncle, I'll try my best to help them graduate. Actually, they're all very smart, they just haven't found the right method."
"Method, huh!"
None of the many professional family tutors had ever said something like that to him.
Trying someone close in age was also a flash of inspiration for him.
He originally wanted to find someone online.
But his daughter Miku had stood up and recommended him.
He felt it was necessary to try the person that Miku, who was usually quiet in front of others, had recommended.
Then Yotsuba also recommended him.
In the end, none of the five sisters objected.
Nakano Maruo felt that he had something to look forward to with this tutor.
He hadn't seen his neighbor much. After actually spending time with him, he could only sigh about how he deserved to be the ruler of something at Shuchiin Academy. Just his presence alone was better than all the so-called elites he knew.
Next.
It was time to discuss the details.
The tutoring time was set for Tuesdays and Fridays each week.
During the week.
As long as Natsuhiko was there.
The five sisters could come to him to ask questions at any time.
After all, they were neighbors.
The time was for a full three years, until the five sisters graduated smoothly.
It was a win-win situation.
Everyone was happy.
"Teacher Natsuhiko, I'm entrusting my daughters to you!"
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of them."
Of course, he wasn't going to take good care of his wives. Was he going to give them to someone else? No way.
The two of them smiled with satisfaction. Then they said goodbye.
...
After discussing things.
Nakano Maruo returned to his own home.
Because of the nature of his work, he himself was rarely at home.
He happened to see the children eating snacks in the living room. These kids showed very little interest in studying.
He sighed silently.
And smiled.
"I just went to the neighbor's across the street to talk. Your new family tutor will be him."
"Starting tomorrow, he will officially come to our door."
Yotsuba was the only one who seemed happy.
"Really? That's great. I love studying!"
"Stare~"
Five pairs of eyes stared over like that.
Overwhelmed by that pressure.
Yotsuba's arrogance disappeared.
She could only sit down wearily.
The others giggled.
Miku looked at her phone screen and suddenly felt some anticipation!
...
On the other side.
Mai-senpai popped a grape into her mouth.
"You're going to be someone else's tutor?"
"And you seem to be enjoying it!"
Natsuhiko nodded.
"Aren't I enjoying myself right now entertaining you, Senpai?"
Natsuhiko familiarly opened the phone screen and logged into the game "Legendary Era."
Mai looked at Natsuhiko, who was never idle and seemed to fully enjoy his youth. An unknown expression flashed in her eyes. She was very curious. Was he always like this?
Finally.
Sakurajima Mai still didn't choose to stay the night.
Of course.
Natsuhiko had strongly invited her to stay.
He even used "Slip" to make her fall onto the sofa.
Of course, this was a misunderstanding from when Senpai had volunteered to see Natsuhiko's unique ability that she hadn't seen today.
As for when she fell, Natsuhiko reaching out to hold her was only natural. There was nothing to criticize. He, Natsuhiko, had always been upright. A standard gentleman.
After taking Senpai downstairs.
He went to the blind spot of the camera.
Natsuhiko focused.
And floated up.
He flew to the 30th floor and entered his room through the window!
