Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded, but frowned slightly as she looked at Ayuzawa Misaki's maid outfit, and couldn't help but glare at Luo Chen with an unfriendly expression.
Luo Chen calmly explained, "Although Misaki is currently a student, she has been working part-time. I found her through a maid cafe and hired her as the housekeeper for the JS Research Institute."
Hiratsuka Shizuka then looked at Ayuzawa Misaki.
Misaki Ayuzawa nodded repeatedly and smiled, "It's Hiratsuka-sensei, the 02 type. I'm very grateful to the young master for giving me this job. It's much easier than taking care of unfamiliar customers every day at a maid cafe, and the salary is also higher."
"Cough cough!"
When the topic of salary came up, Luo Chen suddenly remembered that he had been thinking about giving the housekeeper a raise, but had completely forgotten about it.
Weird.
Without making a sound, Luo Chen asked Ayuzawa Misaki to arrange a place for Hiratsuka Shizuka to stay.
As for Luo Chen himself.
Since Hiratsuka Shizuka had been invited to my home, I naturally had to show her the hospitality of a host, so I personally gave her a tour of the JS Research Institute.
However, Hiratsuka Shizuka seemed uninterested in shogi. After touring all the places, she only asked one question: "Is there alcohol served at dinner here?"
Luo Chen: "???"
Hiratsuka Shizuka frowned and said in a low voice, "Teacher, if I don't drink alcohol with my meals, especially dinner, I'll go crazy!"
It's true, he's addicted to drinking.
Luo Chen sighed and said, "If I say no... Teacher Jing, you don't actually want to go out for dinner, do you?"
"Otherwise what?" Hiratsuka Shizuka asked, looking puzzled.
Without wine, how could she possibly stay and eat!
Luo Chen sighed.
Going out will take at least one or two hours, and if Hiratsuka Shizuka gets drunk, it's not impossible for it to take five or six hours.
To make the treasure chests refresh as soon as possible.
Ok!
The rule that JS researchers cannot drink alcohol could be slightly modified.
Just then, after visiting all the places in the JS Research Institute, Luo Chen took Hiratsuka Shizuka back to the place where Ayuzawa Misaki had helped arrange their accommodation.
"Teacher Jing, you can stay here for now. As for the drinking issue, I'll take care of it for you. And don't worry about the food at the JS Research Institute; it's definitely much better than some restaurants outside," Luo Chen said.
Hiratsuka Shizuka looked around the room; it was clean, tidy, and fully equipped, even with an ensuite bathroom. She nodded with considerable satisfaction.
Before Luo Chen left, she couldn't help but frown and ask, "Why do you insist on making me stay for 72 hours?"
Luo Chen felt awkward. He couldn't very well say it was so that he could let her get a treasure chest. After thinking it over, he put on a sunny smile and said, "Of course, it's to perfectly demonstrate my family's hospitality. That way, I'll be obliged to your hospitality, and Teacher Jing will definitely take better care of me at school in the future."
"Ha~!"
Hiratsuka Shizuka had no reason to believe any of this. She rolled her eyes, reminded him again not to forget to bring alcohol to dinner, and then closed the door.
"Young Master?"
Misaki Ayuzawa, who had been standing nearby, asked incredulously after Shizuka Hiratsuka closed the door, "Is she really the young master's Japanese language teacher?"
"Of course." Luo Chen nodded.
"But what is the young master's purpose in insisting on bringing the Japanese language teacher back to the JS Research Institute? It can't be just to tutor him in Japanese." Ayuzawa Misaki was equally puzzled by this matter.
Luo Chen countered, "Why not?"
Misaki Ayuzawa gave Luo Chen a meaningful look and said, "Young Master, Xinghua High School also participated in this year's Six Schools Examination, so I saw your results this morning."
"Cough cough cough!" Luo Chen cursed under his breath, almost making a fool of himself. He almost used the excuse of needing tutoring to talk to Ayuzawa Misaki.
"I didn't expect that."
Misaki Ayuzawa shook her head, looking at Luo Chen with a helpless yet somewhat envious expression, and said, "Even though the young master rarely studies after returning home every day, he's either competing in shogi or teaching his disciples, yet he still performs so brilliantly in the mock exams, even defeating that mock exam monster from your school."
Luo Chen changed the subject, not wanting to talk about himself anymore: "Misaki did well on the exam this time, right? What was your ranking?"
Misaki Ayuzawa said with a deep look in her eyes, "Eleventh place."
"It's already quite good. After all, Xinghua High School's teaching staff is what it is, it's definitely not as good as Xiuzhi's." Luo Chen patted the housekeeper's shoulder to comfort her.
Misaki Ayuzawa nodded bitterly.
This is true.
She currently ranks first in Xinghua High School, and her deviation score is far ahead of the second-place student in the same school. Even the second-place student in Xinghua High School only ranks 137th in the 557 Six Schools Examination.
However, she was not discouraged at all!
Believe in yourself, one day you will definitely have the opportunity to surpass those noble children of Xiuzhi Academy, and even Luo Chen!
After all, once she became familiar with the work in the JS research department, it was relatively easy, and she spent almost every second outside of work studying.
"Oh, Misaki, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you." This time, Luo Chen didn't forget the matter that had just been pointed out to him.
“Please speak, young master,” said Misaki Ayuzawa.
Luo Chen smiled, snapped his fingers, and said, "Starting today, your hourly wage will be officially increased from 600 yen to 1500 yen."
"what?!"
Misaki Ayuzawa was surprised, and her eyes lit up instantly.
"Seriously, your work ability is obvious to all, so you deserve this salary. Keep it up."
Luo Chen patted Ayuzawa Misaki's head, smiled and encouraged her before turning to leave.
Misaki Ayuzawa was immediately immersed in the happiness of getting a raise. Only later did she realize that she had been "killed" by an affectionate head pat.
Her pretty face suddenly turned bright red!
She stared intently at the doorway where Luo Chen had left, clenching her small fists. A wave of shame washed over her, and she muttered under her breath:
"Baka! Baka!"
Chapter 218 The Intense Competition Between Hirano and Kaguya (Student Council Troubles)
Luo Chen realized that he had underestimated the difficulty of obtaining the Hiratsuka Shizuka Treasure Chest.
72-hour overnight stay...
Normally, staying still in the JS research lab would have been enough to complete the task in three days, but as a teacher at Shuchi Academy, Hiratsuka Shizuka could not possibly do that.
However, according to Luo Chen's original plan, even if he was not there during the day, he could still complete the mission requirements perfectly in 6 days by only staying at night for 12 hours.
only!
The imagination is wonderful.
Aside from the first day when Hiratsuka Shizuka drove him back to the JS Research Institute and spent a considerable amount of time there, he only stayed there for 7 or 8 hours each night on the other days.
They just sleep, and then they disappear without a trace.
Luo Chen had a terrible toothache and really wanted to confront Hiratsuka Shizuka, but he couldn't find a suitable reason to do so.
In addition, Hiratsuka Shizuka even took some time over the weekend to go home and visit her family!
All these events, along with a series of other occurrences, meant that it was two weeks later when Luo Chen finally obtained Hiratsuka Shizuka's treasure chest.
[Ding! Detected that Hiratsuka Shizuka (female supporting character), a main character in the crossover anime world, has resided in the host's territory for 72 hours, triggering a treasure chest reward!]
[Quality: Rare Blue!]
Sitting behind the student council president's desk, Luo Chen saw this system message report and felt gratified and somewhat moved.
Finally, damn it, that's enough!
Hard work pays off, and luckily the box was of blue quality, otherwise he would have been furious and cursing!
"System, open the treasure chest."
A blue treasure chest appeared before me, and then opened with a click.
[Ding! Treasure chest successfully opened. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the skill: 'Precision Martial Arts']
[Analysis: This martial arts technique is based on prioritizing precise strikes, but it can be triggered when the host is enraged, and every move is fatal!]
[Note: When the host uses this skill to subdue three or more people, the skill will evolve, at which point it will produce unexpected effects.]
Luo Chen silently pondered the practicality of this skill.
Overall, it's alright, it lives up to expectations, and it is indeed a skill that can increase one's combat power.
It's just a bit violent!
The result of "Precision Martial Arts" was that every move was fatal, which indeed lived up to the description of the word "precision".
Moreover, to put it bluntly, all the blue treasure chest skills unlocked by the system so far have been like this.
The skills that come first are not particularly useful, and they all have certain limitations and quirky effects. However, once you complete a special mission and awaken them, they will immediately become different.
As for this skill at hand...
After thinking it over carefully, Luo Chen sent a message to his father, asking him to help find three scoundrels who had committed crimes.
His family was the underground emperor of Adachi Ward, so finding this kind of person was easy. He was the perfect person to experience "Precision Martial Arts" and complete the mission to trigger awakening.
