Even with chuunibyou, let's learn together!

Ogata Rizu seemed a bit resigned to her fate, and kept piling the side dishes from her plate into Hayakawa's bowl: "I can't eat anymore, you didn't eat breakfast, so eat more."

"Hey, don't do that, I can't eat it either."

Hayakawa watched as the small hill he had painstakingly eaten gradually developed into a pyramid shape. His face darkened, and he was about to stop it when he suddenly sensed an extremely dangerous gaze from nearby.

Hayakawa felt a chill and looked in that direction. As expected, he saw Ogata's father hiding next to the kitchen door, looking at him with very "kind" eyes. The way he looked him up and down was like a butcher studying how to cut pork.

"..."

That look... it felt like he wanted to seal himself in a concrete pillar and sink into the Han River.

The desire to kill is rising.

"Uh…"

Hayakawa hesitated for a moment, but still didn't stop Ogata from adding food to his bowl. He felt that if he continued to pull and tug at her like this, the middle-aged man would rush up and fight him to the death.

At that moment, Hayakawa suddenly thought of the electric scooter he and Ogata had parked in front of the udon shop, and a strange thought involuntarily arose in his mind.

What would happen if I suddenly said to Uncle Ogata at this moment, "Old Deng, is it safe for me to park this will-o'-the-wisp in front of your house?"

It'll definitely get hammered into the dough with a rolling pin and turned into udon!

So let's not talk about it...

Hayakawa shuddered and abandoned the suicidal idea of ​​stripping off his clothes.

……

For people who usually eat very little, suddenly binge eating can be a very unpleasant experience. This was the case with Hayakawa. Ogata Riju made what should have been a bowl of udon noodles into two bowls, which made Hayakawa feel completely nauseous.

You know, I've been living the life of an ascetic since the third grade of elementary school. Even when I eat a lot, I'm only about 80% full. Heaven knows how long it's been since he's eaten this much.

"Ugh... my stomach hurts so much."

Hayakawa lay half-lying on the table, unwilling to move. The activity of digesting a large amount of food in his stomach had taken up a lot of his energy, causing him to be somewhat sluggish, his brain to feel tired, and he even felt sleepy.

"What's wrong, Ms. Hayakawa?"

At this moment, the kind middle-aged man walked over again with a smile: "You look so worried. Is it because my udon noodles don't suit your taste? I'm so sorry, could you give me some advice on what's wrong with them, hmm?!"

Ogata's father spoke in a calm and friendly tone, but the last "um," which was clearly raised in pitch, directly expressed his displeasure.

"No, it's delicious."

Hayakawa answered honestly, "I feel unwell because I ate too much and was so full."

The middle-aged man's expression softened, and he looked around: "Where's my Riju?"

Hayakawa glanced inside: "She saw that my stomach was upset, so she went inside to find me some medicine."

"Oh, I see. My lovely daughter is still so understanding. But you shouldn't assume she has special feelings for you just because she's been a little nicer to you. Actually, she's only like that because she's kind; there's nothing special about her."

Ogata's father's eyes were dangerous: "So you absolutely mustn't fall for her, absolutely not."

"..."

Old Deng, is it safe for me to park my will-o'-the-wisp in front of your house?

"That's it, I understand."

Hayakawa nodded expressionlessly: "I have no doubt that she has special feelings for me."

There was absolutely no doubt that she had special feelings for me, and we did everything except sleep together.

Ogata's father was pleased to see Hayakawa's understanding attitude, and his tone softened: "Ms. Hayakawa, I've always been very pleased with you. With your help, Rizu's grades have improved a lot, and she smiles more often than before. You're a very good person, and I'm very grateful for your help. However, my Rizu is still young, and she's not interested in anything outside of studying. If you two keep in touch after you go to university..."

Ogata's father paused here, his expression struggling for a long time before finally saying, "Then you can come to my family's noodle shop when you have time."

"..."

Slightly frowning, Hayakawa looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with a strange expression, somewhat shocked.

Does this... mean they're somewhat accepting of me?

For the world's number one doting father to say something like "I want to go back," it seems I actually have a good impression of the Ogata family. At least Ogata Rizu must have said a lot of good things about me.

No wonder Ogata's father was so wary of her; it would be a miracle if he treated her well when his daughter mentioned a boy's name every day.

"Um…"

Hayakawa thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "I'll come and bother you more often in the future."

“I’m talking about after graduating from university,” Ogata’s father said seriously.

Hayakawa fell silent. Just now it was said that it was during college, but now it has become after college graduation, which is a full four years later.

Chapter 553 Come to my room

That's a really fast change of heart.

Just as Hayakawa was about to speak, Ogata Riju came out from inside. She walked up to Hayakawa and placed two different kinds of medicine on the table.

"This one, when taken with water, will relieve bloating; this one, when held in the mouth, will aid digestion."

Ogata Rizu said something and thoughtfully handed the water to Hayakawa, who naturally did as she was told without hesitation.

"...My lovely Rizu, you've never cared for your father this much,"

Upon seeing this, Ogata's father's face turned extremely ugly, and he said in a stiff voice, "Haha, this must be my imagination. After all, he's just a brat. How can he compare to his father? Hahahaha!"

"Hayakawa..."

Ignoring her father's awkward laughter, Rizu stared at Hayakawa for a long time before suddenly saying to him out of the blue, "Want to come to my room?"

"Click"

In that instant, Hayakawa heard the sound of the middle-aged man next to him breaking his heart.

"You little brat!! What kind of love potion did you give my daughter?!"

A beast-like roar rang out, but Hayakawa ignored it, thinking it was just the wail of a loser. He looked at the science-loving girl in front of him with a strange gaze, and seeing her matter-of-fact expression, he immediately realized what was going on and asked with a hint of realization, "Are you here to study?"

Rizu Ogata nodded: "Yes."

Hayakawa asked again, "Is there anything you can't understand lately?"

Ogata Riju's eyes sparkled: "Hayakawa, you understand me best."

Hayakawa smiled slightly. He wasn't particularly good at understanding others, but after spending a lot of time with Ogata Riju, he naturally understood what was going on in her little head.

Ogata often says things in a serious tone that are ambiguous. Because she lacks common sense, you have to interpret her words according to your own feelings.

"Oh, so you went to study."

Ogata's father's face softened upon hearing this, though it was still visibly dark. He couldn't help but advise from the side, "Rizu, why do you want this kid to go to your room? Can't he just study here?"

"How can I study here? There are so many guests and it's so noisy."

Rizu Ogata frowned and said without hesitation, "And what if it delays the guests' meal?"

Ogata's father was about to say something when Ogata Rizu interrupted him: "Alright, Dad, don't get in the way. Go and get back to your work in the kitchen. I need to learn from Hayakawa."

"Well…"

Ogata's father was heartbroken, but he couldn't say anything to his daughter. He could only turn to Hayakawa in a fierce tone: "Hey kid, watch your step when you're in my daughter's room. Don't let me see you doing anything inappropriate. Don't breathe the same air as her, don't get within three meters of her, and don't..."

They'll die if they don't breathe, and they can't even give a lecture if you don't get within three meters!

Hayakawa's face immediately darkened. Ogata's father wanted to say something, but was kicked hard by Ogata Riju and could only leave with a miserable look of betrayal on his face.

Hayakawa was led inside by Ogata Riju, and soon after they went to the place where she usually stayed at the shop.

Ogata Rizu's family was quite well-off. They had a house outside the udon shop as their residence, and the udon shop itself was a two-story building where they could live. The first floor served as the shop, and the second floor was where Ogata Rizu and her father usually rested. Ogata Rizu often helped out at the shop and was used to living there.

This was also Hayakawa's first time visiting Rizu Ogata's house and her first time going into her room.

"It's very simple."

Hayakawa Bar deleted leek age fin grabs Wu Ba QUN opened the door and glanced at it, his expression not changing.

Because it was indeed a very ordinary girl's room, with little decoration. There was a simple off-white quilt and wallpaper, and the sheets and pillows were also simple in color and style. Then there was a bedside table, a bookshelf, and a wardrobe. There was a lamp on the bedside table and nothing else. There were textbooks and school supplies that Hayakawa was familiar with on the desk. Apart from that, there was nothing special. In short, it was very ordinary. Looking at the room alone, you would never guess that the owner was the world's cutest science girl, and that she also had two Mount Everests.

Hayakawa looked around, his gaze somewhat strange.

He had assumed that a science prodigy like Rizu Ogata would have a very special room, complete with all sorts of mathematical tools and experimental equipment, as well as sophisticated tools and surveying drawings. But there was nothing there.

How is that possible... Where's the sundial? Where's the vernier caliper? Where's the diamond engraving tool? Where's the dial caliper? Where's the digital micrometer caliper? Where's the graduated micrometer caliper? Where's the outside micrometer? There's none of that. There's not even a simple globe or an optical telescope. How could someone like that possibly beat me in a science exam?!

"..."

Hayakawa felt a little gloomy, and his confidence dropped by one percentage point.

"Let's study together, Hayakawa."

Ogata Rizu was completely oblivious to Hayakawa's change in mood. She was still happy about his visit and invited him to sit at her desk and study.

As soon as they started learning, Hayakawa's mood immediately improved, and he said in a serious tone, "Is there anything you don't understand lately? Let me tell you everything here today, and I'll answer all your questions."

Without hesitation, Rizu Ogata took out a reading comprehension exercise book and said, "There are many parts of this reading passage that I don't quite understand. For example, here... The last question is why Mr. Nogawa jumped into the river at the end? I just can't understand it. He had already achieved his lifelong wish and could leave the small village for the big city tomorrow. Why did he choose to commit suicide on the night before he was to leave? I just can't figure it out."

"this…"

Hayakawa glanced at the reading comprehension question, whose answer was obvious, and after thinking for a moment, asked, "I won't give you the answer right away, Ogata. How did you answer this question?"

Riju Ogata's expression turned serious: "My answer was that Mr. Nogawa couldn't bear to leave the hometown that gave him birth and raised him, so he committed suicide."

"Okay, you got a perfect score of zero on this question."

Hayakawa's face darkened, and he rubbed his forehead, saying, "No, how could you answer like that? The previous text was full of allusions about how much Nogawa looked down on his rural hometown. How could he suddenly not want to leave at the end? And even if he didn't want to leave, it wouldn't be enough to commit suicide. It's just going to work in the city, not being sent to jail. He can come back anytime he wants. Is it really necessary to commit suicide?!"

"Ah...I see."

Rizu Ogata looked at her with a half-realized, half-confused expression and asked, "Then how should I answer?"

"Listen to me, Ogata, when answering reading comprehension questions, you need to refer to the preceding content,"

Hayakawa took a deep breath: "Come on, let's look ahead now."

Chapter 554 Ogata's Room

"Look, here... here... and here."

Hayakawa quickly tapped several places on the text: "These passages all indicate that Mr. Nogawa is... so considering the content, the answer should be..."

Upon hearing this, Rizu Ogata's face finally cleared up, her eyes widening in surprise: "So that's how it is, I understand now."

"I find it very puzzling that you only understand this now."

Hayakawa said wearily, "Hey Ogata, even though reading comprehension questions are literature, they still have their own rules. After all, stories come from reality, and reality has to conform to basic logic. How could you answer that Mr. Nogawa committed suicide because he couldn't bear to leave his hometown? That doesn't make sense at all. Even if he really couldn't bear to leave his hometown, he wouldn't commit suicide as soon as he left home."

Upon hearing this, Ogata Rizu's face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head, stammering softly, "I...I...I didn't think it through for a moment."

"Even if you haven't thought it through, this is ridiculous. Your answer makes me think of someone whose reclusive tendencies have become so severe that they can't stand going out and meeting people..."

Hayakawa inexplicably began to fantasize, half-jokingly and half-helplessly saying, "Do you think it's possible that Mr. Nogawa is actually a vampire hiding among the people, who will die as soon as he sees sunlight? That's why he chose to commit suicide before going out, so that no one would discover his identity, thus concealing the vampire clan's millennia-long plan to invade the human world."

"Well…"

Ogata Rizu's face was already flushed red, and she puffed out her cheeks and huffed, "Are you deliberately making up stories to annoy me?"

"Not really."

Hayakawa silently withdrew his gaze, turned to look out the window at a 45-degree angle, gazing at the sky, trying not to let the bitter tears fall from his eyes. He said expressionlessly, "You answer math and physics questions with such clear logic that you're like a monster. Why is it that when numbers are turned into words, you completely lose your sense of logic?"

"Calling me a monster is going too far."

Rizu Ogata rested her chin on her hand as she looked at Hayakawa with a helpless expression: "I don't want to be like this either, but I just can't understand it. Besides, there are just too many differences in logic between humanities and sciences. There are many things that can't be understood using the same way of thinking. Look at Fumino, she's the same as me, so it's normal."

"What's normal about you... You and Furuhashi are anything but normal. A normal person should be like me, sigh..."

Hayakawa's sigh was filled with the helplessness of a teacher who had tried her best but failed. After a long while, she said, "Next time you encounter a reading comprehension question that you can't understand, try a different approach to answering it."

Ogata Rizu's eyes lit up, and she adjusted her glasses, saying seriously, "Please speak."

"Try to write more complex content."

Hayakawa pressed his philtrum and tried to explain in a way that Ogata could understand: "Listen carefully, there is a difference between judging right and wrong in science and humanities. Unlike science, where right is right and wrong is wrong and everything depends on the answer, humanities teachers often judge papers based on their own understanding, which is where loopholes can be exploited."

"Oh!"

Ogata Rizu seemed to have opened the door to a new world, her eyes widening like a shocked cat: "Tell me more, tell me more."

"The first point is to write as much as possible. There are two reasons for this. First, if you write a lot, the teacher will be too lazy to read it carefully. They'll just glance at it and give you points if there are any points to be awarded."

Hayakawa said calmly, "The second point is that you wrote a lot of words. As long as it is related to reading and the questions, the teacher will be embarrassed to give you zero points directly. If the teacher is more patient, they will give you one or two points. Although the points are not many, they are much better than your previous answer, which was bound to be zero points at first glance."

"oh oh!"
