Wow, a drama development almost identical to one of the main drama developments in Yuzumori-San. I love this manga, but come on.

Could be if not for the fact that she's a little kid, I think this is as far as her mind games could go.

I mean... Is not like the manga is too concerned with being realistic, a grade schooler blackmailing an adult is not really that wild at this point

Okay let's unpack this... Houjou needs to just GTFO and never come back. I'm glad Tae didn't listen to her bullshit. I had to remind myself once again Mai is a elementary schooler because her bringing Tae into that hug when the teacher almost got them was uh quite hot. and No Hitomi this chapter left me very sad.

OH wow the first part went exactly as we expected of Tae thankfully but OH SHIT OH GOD SHE'S SO FUCKED NOW!!!! Only a miracle can saver her now, no, I think we might need time travel this time lo/

Also that hug oh wow, she's about to break the limit of rational thought.

BUT YEAH SHE'S REEEEEEEAAAAALLY SCREWED NOW!

THIS

Is a Real Cliffhanger!

This chapter was really good. We get to see why Houjou exists, to demonstrate both Tae and Mai's growth since volume 1. (And also for the hilarity of the antagonist making the entirely valid point that it's weird for an adult to become friends with a 5th grader.)

Anyway. Were it not for Houjou, Tae -- or more realistically Mai let's be real -- could bullshit a story about her being Mai's aunt or something. With her there it becomes more complicated, but I'm sure she doesn't want the teacher to know why she's hanging around at school at night either.

By the way, Houjou's "you [presumably adults] are all the same" line, along with the fact that she is definitely the one playing the piano by herself, fooling around with anatomical models, and looking inside students' desks at night, strongly imply that she has severe family issues and is extremely lonely. I am curious why she latched onto Mai specifically, though. Maybe as a child who looks like an adult, she's a "safe" replacement for the actual adults in her life who are neglecting her?

1000000 points if Mai passes Tae as the girl that seats in front of her.

Well the previous chapter's cliffhanger was solved nice and quick, via trust and good faith. Then this chapter ends on her heading straight to jail lmao

She should.
But also, realistically, is there really a problem to have an adult accompany a child to pick something up at school in the middle of the night? Isn’t it something to be expected for the child’s safety? To have an adult responsible for them in a situation that could be dangerous (middle of the night at an empty school)?
Like, yeah it isn’t the child’s relative, but the teacher doesn’t have to know. Can just say she’s a cousin or aunt and the teacher would be a-ok with it.

Jail ending is also good.
