I just hope this means the noose is starting to tighten around the teacher.
Because Kazumi's (maybe) Certifable, she's kinda still a victim in all this - just in the 'generational trauma' sense, wherein her abuse is arguably pathological and not wholly her own doing. (Doesn't absolve her; but she needs help more than she needs persecution, in my book, and her emotional stability might be something that can be addressed and treated and worked with to the point where she can have more overt agency with her life).
But the teacher, unless I've missed a chapter or am completely blanking, is both seemingly in control of his faculties, and appears to be either a control freak, or simply outright manipulative and opportunistic when it comes to lying and setting things up to get whatever it is he wants (a relationship with Kazumi?) - and he's willing to trample on children to do it, as evidenced by isolating and then effectively chasing Ichika out of his classroom via lies and manipulation of the rest of the class.
That right there is enough for me to want him thrown from the bridge, but I'll settle for hoping that some form of retribution / karmic comeuppance comes his way before too much longer. I just fear that it won't be because of the MC, as he's still....well, very conflict-adverse, at least in terms of being an active force in any given dispute, preferring to simply apologize and lower his head to resolve things.
Though he said he'd get the truth from his wife as it pertains to her conversations with the teacher, even if he has to be forceful about it - so maybe that means he's starting to change. He's realized that he did wrong by Ichika in more than one way of late, so I'm going to take that as a sign that maybe he's also going to change himself and be more proactive and not so quick to simply bow and scrape and capitulate and appease.
Because, despite everything up to now, this family might be worth saving, if each member is willing to own up to what they need to do to get back to a functioning and communicative and happy family. (Least of all Ichika, though - she's a literal child and needs a solid foundation of maturity around her, because relying on her one friend to go to bat for each time isn't fair to either of them.)

Anyway thanks for the TL - hope life settles down a bit for you, but I appreciate you getting the chapters to this out whenever you have time and aren't spreading yourself too thin to do it.
