He tried to save the fallen girls, but they came after him instead.

Hidden behind the curtain, Fukada's mind also begins to undergo some subtle changes.

Previously, she wanted to manipulate and destroy Shirakawa in order to win the favor of the handsome and wealthy Akiyama.

But this Shirakawa, for some reason, has such a great charm...

In particular, he saw the little interaction between Shirakawa, Nikaido, and Sakura, which seemed to indicate that there was an ambiguous relationship between them.

It seems that Maki and he have developed a girlfriend relationship.

How many girls does this man have to defile before he's satisfied?

Green Tea Fukada found a so-called legitimate reason for her actions.

Fukada's fishponds are divided into different grades, and the higher the grade, the more money he can extract from them, and the more effort he puts into them.

But this Shirakawa seemed to have broken through her standards for judging men based on material possessions and appearance.

This caused her heart to begin to stir slightly at this moment.

Snapped!

Fukada slapped himself hard across the face, shook his head, and banished those thoughts from his mind.

She must destroy Shirakawa, she absolutely must!

223 Discovery of Fukada

Fifteen minutes later, Shirakawa emerged from the men's restroom looking exhausted.

Once offstage, the other girls stood in their positions, scripts in hand, ready and waiting for Shirakawa to arrive.

"We've been waiting for you, Xiaobai, hurry up!" Jackie waved repeatedly.

"Okay, okay." Shirakawa staggered onto the stage.

As soon as I entered the toilet stall, I kissed Cecilia deeply for fifteen minutes.

Her long snake continuously wrapped around Shirakawa's tongue, and her sweet saliva filled Shirakawa's mouth. The taste in their mouths had already merged into one, and the remaining strength in Shirakawa's body was almost completely drained by Cecilia.

That feeling...

It's truly unforgettable.

"Brother Shirakawa, why are your lips swollen?" Sakura asked, pointing at Shirakawa's sausage-like lips.

"No, I just accidentally bit my lip."

"Oh, how could you be so careless? Let me rub it for you." Sakura raised her sparkly manicured fingers and gently pressed them against Shirakawa's lips, swirling them slightly.

"Um, Shirakawa." Maki appeared, deliberately standing between the two, interrupting their sweet interaction, and took out the latest third version of the script. "We have limited rehearsal time, so I've shortened it again, cutting out the misty forest, the black river, and the climbing scenes. We only have the plot from our last rehearsal and the final battle with the dragon."

Sakura was sulking, her cheeks puffed up.

It's the older sister again.

"I'm so sorry for causing you so much trouble because of my injury," Shirakawa said sincerely.

"No, injuries are something that can't be prevented. It's normal for unexpected situations to arise during rehearsals, so don't worry about it," Maki comforted Shirakawa.

"I will do my best to keep up with everyone's pace."

"Oh dear, we didn't make any progress yesterday, don't worry," Sakura said, leaning over to comfort her.

Nikaido was reminiscing about what happened last night. His clumsy little brain was being bombarded by various concepts of chastity and other ideas, and he was temporarily in a state of malfunction.

Jackie, a pure-hearted person who enjoys having fun, observed from the sidelines with great interest.

These girls weren't really concerned about the performance or competing for rankings; they just wanted to spend more time with Shirakawa...

Except for Hoshimiya Shio.

"Shirakawa, even though a lot of scenes have been cut, you still have to finish the remaining parts properly. I won't lower my standards for you just because you're injured," Hoshimiya Shio reminded her earnestly.

The performance involving the head of the Hoshimiya family must be perfect.

"Okay, I understand." Shirakawa nodded, then, remembering Hoshimiya Rie's request, deliberately looked away.

Once the performance is over and he repays Xinggong Xi for saving him, the Xinggong family can say goodbye to him completely.

"This stage play is the result of everyone's hard work, so please don't let me down."

"Ah, I understand." Shirakawa nodded repeatedly, repeating what he had just said earnestly.

Shirakawa's attitude towards other girls is completely different from his attitude towards Hoshimiya Shio.

For some reason, Hoshiguchi Xi was quite unhappy.

He's my savior, after all. I almost got into a fight with Matsushima because of him. How could he be so... indifferent?

"Oh dear!" Jackie suddenly slapped her forehead. "I forgot, we haven't arranged a narrator yet."

Shirakawa had mentioned to her before that he wanted Ayako to be the narrator.

Given Yako's current mental state, she definitely cannot be the narrator.

"How about we find someone we know... to help out? After all, this narration doesn't need to be anything special, just not stage-frightened," Shirakawa suggested, glancing around for someone.

Feeling guilty, Senior Fukada quickly hid behind the curtain.

Until Akita-sensei in the audience made eye contact with him.

Ms. Akita was wearing a teacher's uniform: a white undershirt, a black pencil skirt, high heels, and black-rimmed glasses.

He had the air of a strict and capable teacher.

But when they looked at each other, Akita put on a shy, girlish act.

"Akita-sensei!" Shirakawa waved repeatedly, "Come and lend a hand!"

Mr. Akita walked onto the stage, bowed his head, and said, "What are your orders, Master?"

"Master?" All the other girls looked at Akita.

Of course, this also included some male and female students who were away from the stage, who also heard the word "master".

Akita-sensei immediately realized her lapse in composure.

After engaging in that kind of master-teacher play too many times, it naturally comes out in person.

Only Jackie and Maki knew about their secret relationship.

"Um, well, I was helping another class set up a maid café before, and it just slipped out naturally. Don't mind it, cough cough!" Akita-sensei cleared her throat, straightened her back, pushed up her glasses, and adopted a normal teacher's posture. "Is there anything I can help you with, Shirakawa-kun?"

"Um, we need a narrator for our stage play, do you have time..."

"I need to arrange the student council's preparations; the principal hasn't been in office lately..."

"Well, the narration is very simple, you just need to read the lines." Shirakawa opened the script in his hand and showed it to Akita-sensei.

No acting skills are required; simply reciting the lines with emotion is sufficient.

Akita is a teacher, so these abilities can be considered basic skills.

"We really can't find anyone right now, so we can only ask the teacher for help."

"Well... okay then," Akita-sensei put down the forms and documents in her hand and agreed.

So, with everything ready, everyone began to rehearse their lines with the script in hand.

Because they were rehearsing at school, none of them were wearing costumes.

The early scenes of Rin Hoshimiya Shio were quite perfect, all filmed in one take. Even in her school uniform, she managed to portray the extraordinary aura of a queen.

After that, the scenes involving the hero Shirakawa, the knight Nikaido, and the hoodlum Jackie weren't as "exciting." They joined the party rather uneventfully, with some minor incidents in between where Nikaido was in love with Shirakawa.

The scene where Shirakawa threatens Jackie has been changed to Shirakawa using money and benefits to lure Jackie into joining the team.

In the early stages, Shirakawa was also portrayed as a heroic and righteous figure.

The "audience" below the stage also watched with great interest, after all, it is a rare and precious thing to see so many beautiful girls performing on the same stage.

In short, the previous plot unfolded smoothly, and then we entered the intermission.

The so-called halftime break was actually to give Shirakawa some time to familiarize himself with his lines.

"Shirakawa, come with me for a moment." Maki called Shirakawa away.

She had been feeling uneasy ever since.

Sakura and Shirakawa's interaction of touching lips once again aroused Maki's suspicion.

"Hey, sister, why did you call Shirakawa away?" Sakura, who was possessive of her food, grabbed Shirakawa's arm, revealing her little tiger teeth.

"I'll show him around the script."

"Familiarize yourself with the script?" Nikaido muttered under his breath. "Isn't it enough to familiarize yourself with it here? Why go out?"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing," Jackie tried to mediate. The performance was tomorrow, and if they kept dragging it out like this, there wouldn't be enough time for rehearsals.

She pushed Shirakawa and Maki out, saying, "You two hurry up and talk, then come back quickly."

Before leaving, she whispered a few words in Shirakawa's ear: "Maki isn't focused on rehearsals right now. You need to finish quickly and not waste time."
