Chapter 80: Starting School

~11 min read 2,072 words

The University of Tokyo!

It is the undisputed number one university in Japan. Founded in 1877, it has cultivated nine Nobel Prize-winning talents for Japan to date!

It is the sacred place of learning that all young Japanese students dream of entering. Its status in Japan is like Qingbei to China and Oxbridge to the United Kingdom.

In the recently concluded CWUR World University Rankings, the University of Tokyo ranked thirteenth, number one in Asia!

Luo Quan was very lucky to become a student of such a world-famous university, but she was also very unfortunate to become the focus of the whole school on the first day of returning to campus.

The cause of the matter was actually because her mouth was cheap. Previously, the two interacted in the comment section of Wen Xia's Weibo. Some fans asked her when she would release a Chinese album, and Luo Quan said she would return to school on the 28th and had no time.

It was nothing originally, but it turned out that someone put this sentence on Japanese Twitter, saying that Luo Quan was about to return to the University of Tokyo to study, and then... she was on the Twitter hot search.

The comment section was full of messages from fans, a considerable number of whom were Luo Quan's alumni, saying that they would definitely give her a welcome party when the time came.

Although Luo Quan tweeted to advise fans not to do this, fearing that it would affect the normal order of the campus, it didn't seem to have much effect.

Now she couldn't delay her return to school for this kind of thing, so she had to bite the bullet and return to school on the 28th.

The University of Tokyo has seven campuses, and the language department where Luo Quan studies belongs to the Komaba Campus located in Meguro Ward, Tokyo.

Because Shibuya is next to Meguro, Luo Quan didn't bring much luggage when she returned to school. A student ID, a credit card, and a backpack were enough.

The coursework at the University of Tokyo is very relaxed. The first class starts at ten in the morning, and there are only five or six classes a day. If there is no special arrangement, the time from five in the afternoon to ten the next day is basically personal free time.

Therefore, such a relaxed coursework arrangement is a very big test for students' self-discipline and self-learning ability.

However, students who can be admitted to the University of Tokyo basically do not appear to be lazy and playful, because the long school history of the University of Tokyo has already created a diligent, down-to-earth, and pragmatic school style.

Students holding books can be seen everywhere on campus, sitting for an afternoon. Under the influence of such a strong learning atmosphere, it is difficult for you not to become a person who loves learning.

Of course, students at the University of Tokyo are by no means bookworms who only know how to bury their heads in reading. In fact, their extracurricular life is also quite rich.

The most famous is the semi-annual campus festival of the University of Tokyo. One is the May Festival held on the Hongo and Yayoi campuses, and the other is the Komaba Festival held on the Komaba campus in November.

Last year's Komaba Festival attracted more than 100,000 visitors. It is one of the few large-scale school festivals in Japan, held for three days, and will occupy the Twitter hot search list every day.

With these wonderful campus activities to render, every student at the University of Tokyo can basically be called a comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physique, beauty, and labor. They are the elites of the future society and the hope of Japan.

However, even elites have their youth.

What do young people like? Nothing more than handsome men and beautiful women, anime and games.

The proud sons of heaven at the University of Tokyo used their actions to tell the world that they also chase stars, and when they are crazy, they are no less than the vast number of otaku, or rather, they are actually members of the otaku.

When Luo Quan walked to the school gate, the roads on both sides of the campus were full of students, mostly boys, and a few balding middle-aged men could be seen inside, not knowing whether they were passersby or teachers.

As soon as Luo Quan appeared, the students welcoming him let out an excited roar:

"Izumi!!"

"I love you!"

"I'm in the same department as you!"

………………

I don't know who shouted "Please marry me!", but the vast number of male students actually shouted together, and the scene was spectacular.

Luo Quan was stunned. Is this the top student of the number one university in Asia? What is the difference between this painting style and the losers on the Internet?

Seeing that Luo Quan's expression was a bit stiff, the students thought that their crazy behavior had frightened her, and the neat slogans gradually died down.

Just when the scene was about to fall into embarrassment, Luo Quan smiled and responded: "I'm only eighteen, I can't marry yet."

This sentence was like throwing a fire into an oil drum, instantly detonating the emotions of the boys again. Excited strange howls came one after another. Those who didn't know thought the University of Tokyo had changed its business to open a zoo.

"Then how old do you have to be to marry!" Some boys took advantage of the enthusiastic atmosphere and asked boldly.

"Twenty-two."

"Then we'll wait for you for four years!" The boys shouted in unison, like roosters entering the estrus period.

Luo Quan tilted her head and smiled: "But I will graduate and return to the country in four years."

"Ah————" The boys wailed in unison, like losers who had lost their dreams.

"Too cunning!"

"That's right, how can you avoid our love like this?"

"Just get Japanese nationality, girls can get married at 16!"

Just when the boys were expressing their "dissatisfaction" to Luo Quan, a teacher, a middle-aged man with a white shirt, a fat face, and oily hair, walked over. He had a square face, a majestic appearance, and the lenses of the glasses on his face were thick enough to be used as a magnifying glass.

"It's Director Kawamura..."

"Why is he here..."

From the slightly panicked whispers of the boys, Luo Quan knew the identity of this middle-aged man. He was the dean of the Komaba campus.

Generally speaking, students gather at the school gate and make loud noises, so the discipline director should deal with it. The dean only cares about learning, but it is not impossible if he insists on intervening.

As for why he came here, it is estimated that he just happened to pass by, so he came to take a look when he saw so many people here.

In the case of such a large number of people gathering and making noise on campus, it is usually a verbal education to let the students disperse quickly.

However, the University of Tokyo is not Kyoto University with a free school style. It is quite strict in grasping the school style and learning style. Even if the law does not blame the public, at least a few typical examples must be mentioned to kill the chicken and warn the monkey.

Several organizers were solemn at this time, thinking about whether to take the initiative to stand up and admit their mistakes in exchange for lenient treatment.

However, what made the students drop their jaws was that the dean, who had a stern look just now, became kind and kind in the next second, and even his voice became much gentler than usual: "Even if you want to welcome Izumi, don't be so excited."

"Ha?" Luo Quan was full of question marks, "Aren't you angry?"

Originally, she thought she was going to be punished, but she didn't expect it to be such a situation.

Director Kawamura laughed: "Originally, this situation should be dealt with seriously, but if it is because of you, then it is excusable. By the way, can you give me an autograph? My son is your idol, Miss Izumi, please!"

After speaking, Director Kawamura didn't know where to take out an album and a pen and handed it to Luo Quan.

"Of course." Hearing Director Kawamura say this, Luo Quan breathed a sigh of relief and took the pen and album.

While signing, the students next to him were discussing in a low voice:

"Doesn't Director Kawamura only have a daughter? Where did the son come from?"

"Obviously, he wants Izumi's autograph himself, and doesn't want to lose face in front of us, so he found an excuse!"

"Damn, I waited at the school gate for two hours and haven't asked for an autograph yet. He's good, he asked for it as soon as he came!"

"He's so hateful, I cover his head, how about you go up and grab his signed album?"

"I'm just joking, if you want to be fired, go up yourself."

"What's the noise, Izumi is the kindest, we will definitely have autographs later."

……………………

After getting the autograph, Director Kawamura's face changed back to the way it was when he arrived. Looking at the boys gathering in front of him, he suddenly said angrily: "What are you doing here? Don't you need to study? Are the credits enough? It's just that I am kind. If the principal sees you like this, I guarantee that you will all stay in the grade, and none of you will run away!"

"We just want an autograph..." A boy said weakly.

"Luo Quan is in school and won't run away. Go find her when she has time later. Now that school has started, there are so many things to deal with. If any of you dare to disturb her, be careful that I record your demerits!"

The speed of Director Kawamura's face change made Luo Quan stunned. He was kind just now, but he didn't expect to become so fierce in the blink of an eye.

However, this is also in line with his identity as the dean. After all, which school's dean would be like a comedian and smile at students?

In school, students belong to the bottom layer, and any teacher can point fingers at them, let alone the dean.

Director Kawamura has spoken, and no matter how unwilling the students are, they can only disperse on the spot. As for the students who said that everyone would definitely get an autograph, they were directly disliked by everyone. It is better to stay away from such a crow's mouth in the future.

Although Director Kawamura sang a black face this time, making all the students hate him, for Luo Quan, his appearance was quite timely, which solved a big problem for her.

There were at least two hundred students gathered here just now. If everyone wanted an autograph, it might not be done in an hour. Fortunately, there is Director Kawamura as a villain.

Director Kawamura walked to Luo Quan with his hands behind his back: "Luo Quan, you are the pride of our Komaba campus now. The whole of Japan is singing the songs you wrote. You must study hard in the future and win glory for the school."

"I will definitely work hard!" Luo Quan nodded heavily.

Director Kawamura smiled with satisfaction: "Then I won't delay you any longer, go get busy."

After the director left, Luo Quan had time to look at the scenery on campus.

Like many famous universities, the University of Tokyo also has a wide avenue, as long and long as its school history.

On both sides of the avenue, there are rows of lush ginkgo trees. It is now late summer, and soon the ginkgo will mature, and the green leaves on the branches will be dyed golden by the autumn mood.

At that time, you will be able to enjoy the beautiful scenery known as "Ginkgo Avenue."

This is the place where she will study for three years. Thinking of this, Luo Quan couldn't help but feel a little moved. ===== CHAPTER 81 =====

This was the place where she would study for the next three years; thinking of this, Luo Quan couldn't help but feel a bit moved.
