Shuichi Chiba was filled with exasperation. "What are you thinking? How could I have brought the teacher here just to watch? She just happened to catch a cold and came to the infirmary for medicine. The school nurse isn't here because they have a class."
"Oh."
Tsuki Akiyama wasn't particularly disappointed. The current situation was exciting enough; how things turned out this way wasn't important.
Shuichi Chiba got up to close the door and asked in a low voice, "Did you get here without any issues?"
"Yeah, I pretended to feel faint like I was about to collapse. A classmate noticed right away, and An-chan told the teacher that I wasn't feeling well. They figured I've been overworking myself recently, so the teacher let me come out."
Tsuki Akiyama quietly explained and then picked up the stethoscope on the table, waving it at him meaningfully.
Shuichi Chiba gestured for her to wait a moment. He then walked over to where Sumire Nagase was lying on the bed and slipped behind the curtain to check on her.
Sumire Nagase seemed to have fallen asleep, her breathing steady and her face peaceful.
Without her glasses, the true appearance of this otherwise 'plain' teacher was revealed.
She had long eyelashes, a high nose bridge, and well-defined features, giving her a touch of elegance, perhaps even a hint of mixed heritage.
However, paired with the flushed cheeks caused by her fever and the slight frown from her discomfort, it only made her appear more vulnerable and endearing.
Shuichi Chiba gently reached out, pressing the back of his hand to her forehead to check her temperature. Just for medical purposes.
"It's still quite warm, but she's started to sweat a bit. A good rest should help." Shuichi Chiba murmured to himself, all while closely observing the subtle expressions on Sumire Nagase's face.
Once he was certain that Sumire Nagase had fallen asleep and there was no issue, he finally stepped out from behind the curtain.
Tsuki Akiyama had been waiting impatiently. As soon as Shuichi Chiba emerged, she shot him a questioning look. After receiving his nod of confirmation, she immediately handed over the stethoscope.
Shuichi Chiba took his time, casually hanging the stethoscope around his neck before sitting down in the school nurse's chair. He leisurely asked, "So, where does it hurt?"
"My head feels a little dizzy, and my heart's racing." Tsuki Akiyama instantly shifted into character, pretending to be a typical patient.
"Alright then, let's check your heartbeat. Lift your shirt." Shuichi Chiba said, going through the motions in a matter-of-fact tone.
Tsuki Akiyama hesitated for a moment, her expression convincingly reluctant, frowning slightly. "But I'm wearing my gym uniform. Do I really need to lift my shirt?"
"Are you the doctor, or am I?" Shuichi Chiba raised his eyebrows but then softened his tone.
"In a doctor's eyes, there's no difference between genders. No need to be so cautious. Besides, with the kind of padded bras you girls wear these days, it really affects the stethoscope's effectiveness."
"I-I understand..."
Tsuki Akiyama bit her lip and turned her head, a faint blush appearing on her face as she slowly lifted her gym uniform, revealing her fair skin.
The fair, flat stomach was smooth and free of any excess fat, just enough to fit in the palm of a hand.
Moving up, the faint outline of a rib could be seen; after all, she was a bit on the lean side.
Shuichi Chiba couldn't help but smirk, "I told you, those padded bras are really thick. I don't understand why you're so shy about this size."
"Hmph..." Tsuki Akiyama felt a strange excitement from his words, letting out a slightly odd sound.
Creak—
At the same time, there was a sound resembling metal scraping, which upon closer inspection seemed to be coming from the bed.
Tsuki Akiyama and Shuichi Chiba turned their gazes toward the noise simultaneously. Akiyama's heart raced, her face slightly flushed with excitement, while Shuichi Chiba squinted his eyes thoughtfully.
They exchanged a glance, but neither spoke nor stopped what they were doing.
Shuichi Chiba held the stethoscope, genuinely appearing busy with his examination. He didn't make any inappropriate moves, yet the nature of the procedure inevitably involved physical contact.
With every slight touch of skin, Tsuki Akiyama couldn't help but tremble a little.
Accompanied by her pounding heart, she felt the shivers radiating from deep within her.
Her face displayed a confusing contradiction—a stubborn, disgusted expression mixed with an excited glimmer in her eyes.
It was simply exquisite.
"Alright, you can put it down now."
Shuichi Chiba had little interest in Tsuki Akiyama in that regard; he felt she was nowhere near as suitable for deeper interactions as Fumika.
He found various playful scenarios somewhat interesting, which made it easy for him to restrain himself and keep things light.
"Go lie down on the bed; I'll get you some medicine."
Shuichi Chiba pointed to the bed against the inner wall. Although it was next to the window, pulling the curtain would still create a closed-off space.
The infirmary wasn't large, with only three beds in total, and Akiyama's was separated from Nagase by just one bed.
"What kind of medicine?" Tsuki Akiyama asked warily.
"Don't worry, it won't be bitter; in fact, it's quite sweet. But don't chew it, and don't rush to finish it. Got it?"
Shuichi Chiba's words made Akiyama's heart race even more, a mix of excitement and curiosity bubbling inside her as she wondered if it was what she suspected.
Then, Shuichi Chiba reached into his pocket and pulled out…
A lollipop.
"???"
This was something Tsuki Akiyama hadn't expected. She thought it would be something inappropriate for children, but instead, it was just this?
Seeing the look of suspicion on her face, Shuichi Chiba suddenly felt a bit of an ache. Were his standards really that high?
Was this not stimulating enough?
"The method of administration, remember what I just said about how to take it?"
Shuichi Chiba again told the medication instructions, and Tsuki Akiyama suddenly seemed to understand, her eyes lighting up with excitement.
"I remember; there's no need to emphasize it." She said, snatching the lollipop from him and walking toward the bed by the window.
Shuichi Chiba followed, helping her pull the curtain down, but only on the window side and the foot of the bed.
Then, he pulled the curtain on the middle bed to create a barrier, enclosing the two beds in what appeared to be a separate space.
"Go ahead and take it. I'll watch to make sure you don't mess it up." He said as he sat on the middle bed and commanded her.
"Hmph, got it." Tsuki Akiyama replied with a dissatisfied huff, then tore open the plastic packaging and began to take the medicine.
...
...
...
After grasping the core mechanics of this game, Tsuki Akiyama displayed astonishing talent.
Her slightly furrowed brows, along with a hint of resistance and disgust on her face, were perfectly on point.
Shuichi Chiba suddenly felt a bit thirsty and wanted some water, preferably one poured by Fumika-san.
Tsuki Akiyama had no idea that he was thinking about Fumika-san at this moment, but even if she knew, it would probably just make her more excited.
The two remained silent, one taking the medicine and the other supervising.
Twenty minutes later.
Tsuki Akiyama licked her lips and also felt thirsty; the candy was just too sweet, and she seemed a bit dehydrated.
Noticing that her condition wasn't great, Shuichi Chiba advised, "Alright, once you finish the medicine, head back. Remember to drink plenty of water."
"Okay, thanks, doctor. The medicine works well, and I… misjudged you before." She replied, her expression showing a hint of hesitation and apology as she stood up.
"Next time... when would it be convenient for a follow-up check?"
"Let's talk about that next time." Shuichi Chiba replied, glancing at the time and noticing that class was about to end. He waved his hand, signaling her to leave quickly.
Tsuki Akiyama didn't say much more and left directly.
Once she was gone, Shuichi Chiba restored the curtains to their original position and then walked over to the bedside of Sumire Nagase...
