Chapter 353

Bai Lang deeply realized what is called Japanese-style collectivism, which is their instinct for survival as future corporate drones. In his view, these neat, uniform, even similarly tall high school students naturally exuded an atmosphere that made him feel a bit uncomfortable, "Oppressive, it feels like an oppressive feeling." Bai Lang muttered, holding the notice as he walked into the school gate before his eyes.

Not small...... Also, Dong Jing is literally every inch of land is gold, but satellite cities aren't that exaggerated. Indeed, the White Crane Senior High that Bai Lang is going to is actually in Eight Prince City; although it's part of Dong Jing Du, it's over forty kilometers from the Dong Jing urban area...... so the campus looks quite large, Bai Lang even saw a baseball field through the gaps between buildings——and not just one......

Indeed, the private White Crane Senior High is a school with a fairly large campus, possessing one soccer field and one baseball field, the indoor gymnasium has a basketball court and a badminton court, outdoors there is a swimming pool and tennis courts, and this school indeed emphasizes unity of mind and body as one of its mottos, stressing a beautiful spirit and a healthy body. Bai Lang also saw members of the sports club who were already training; among them were not a few tall and sturdy students whose builds were taller and more robust than Bai Lang's.

After all, it's not really appropriate to call them little Japan anymore, given that their economy has long been better than that of the ancient East Asian country, plus the successful mixed-race from Rice Grain Tip, nowadays Ri Ben's youth, although still somewhat lacking in average height, are indeed physically a bit healthier— a height of around 1.8 meters is already not uncommon, and there are even more who are quite healthy. At least the physique of baseball youths is better than that of their peers in the ancient East Asian country......

As soon as Bai Lang entered, he was noticed by the janitors, security, and teachers— fortunately he promptly produced the notice and his passport to prove his identity— after all, students are the school's bread and butter, and the tuition at White Crane Senior High is certainly not cheap. So a teacher immediately took him to the director's office, then to the principal's office, next to the guidance director's office, and finally to the grade office where the homeroom teacher led him to the classroom.

After fussing for ten-odd minutes, Bai Lang, under the guidance of a middle-aged male teacher named Xiang Xiushu, arrived at Class 4 of Year 1— by the way, this male teacher looks quite familiar; Bai Lang keeps feeling he's seen him somewhere in a TV drama, and this teacher is actually a bit taller than Bai Lang. Bai Lang reminisced inwardly, recalling that he seemed to have seen a very similar face long ago while watching a Japanese historical drama, perhaps it was Sanada Yukimura or something like that?

Indeed, he was a very handsome man with an exotic mixed-race charm. When Bai Lang was brought to the office by the guidance director, he already sensed the aroma of an affair. "Teacher Xiang, this is the exchange student who transferred in at the start of the school year, Bai Lang Bai from the ancient East Asian country. Please look after him." The oily, middle-aged, big-bellied, Di Zhonghai-featured guidance director Bai Chuan Zongyirou said this. Bai Lang, however, immediately glanced over the handsome man's whole body, spotting a wedding ring on his left ring finger, but the office was filled with the atmosphere of an affair......

Bai Lang covertly glanced around the office; there were ten teachers working, six of whom were women— and among those six women, four had their attention, more or less, focused on Teacher Xiang. Bai Lang secretly chuckled, it might just be an office affair...... but given the presence of the guidance director and Bai Lang— speaking of which, why do the other three male teachers have no presence at all? Upon closer look, they turn out to be three withered old men.

Bai Lang's presence was also quite strong; he took off his baseball cap, and a sturdy young man appeared before everyone's eyes— although still immature, the bearing of a generation of prison-inmate men already showed. If he also had a tattoo, he would likely be seen as a promising young man of righteousness, a reserve of the brotherly righteous, stylish yakuza type. Bai Lang has good ears; he overheard someone whispering, "How did he end up at White Crane? With that look, shouldn't he be going to the nearby Suzuran Boys' High instead?"

Just hearing that made Bai Lang think that so-called boys' high school was certainly not a good place; however, he sized himself up from head to toe: "Apart from my clothes being a baseball jacket and jeans, not the uniform, I have no trace of a delinquent youth anywhere on me. My hair isn't dyed, it's standard short and certainly not a shaved head like a pilot's cut. I currently show no tattoos, and my clothing has no dragon-and-tiger embroidery... In short, I'm just an ordinary high school student."

That's the aura— having slaughtered countless vicious spirits on the battlefield, Bai Lang has done his utmost to suppress it, and this world likewise suppresses the power within him, yet still a killer's aspect shows through...... Although Bai Lang's sword-brows and starry eyes truly are the resounding look of a heroic man of the Way, and he's even smiling kindly, still others seeing him would likely be reminded of things like Takakura Ken's Abashiri outskirts......

This is really unjustified— Bai Lang of this sort certainly doesn't belong in Abashiri Prison...... but thinking about it, he really can only go to that Abashiri Prison; this person who kills and sets fires definitely belongs there.

In short, Teacher Xiang brought him to the door of Class 4, Year 1; from outside one could hear the chatter inside, presumably on the first day of school everyone was getting acquainted, exchanging greetings— many of them likely came up from White Crane Junior Division, so they should already know each other. Teacher Xiang pushed the door open— with a 'whoosh' almost all the students' gazes turned toward the teacher.

Bai Lang looked past Teacher Xiang's shoulder, and it seemed a female classmate's eyes were shining...... "Just from the teacher's bearing, could there be a teacher-student affair? I think it's quite possible......" Bai Lang's mind had already conjured up lots of school. AVI, he was almost getting a slight erection as a sign of respect. Xiang Xiushu gestured for Bai Lang to follow him; after he walked in, those students were already seated— speaking of which, on the day they returned to school they had already seen the homeroom teacher and settled their seats.

"Hello everyone, let me introduce the transfer student— this is indeed an overseas student. Please all look after him, next— this person— Bai Lang from the ancient East Asian country." Bai Lang still understood the Japanese reading of his own name, and if the teacher spoke a bit slower he could catch about fifty or sixty percent— his learning ability isn't bad, after all. The Japanese students below didn't speak, they looked at Bai Lang with curiosity, of course also with timidity— perhaps it's still that stylish yakuza aura.

The problem is Bai Lang's appearance isn't ferocious at all; in fact, it could be said to fit the ancient ideal of masculinity quite well. Xiang Xiushu gestured for Bai Lang to introduce himself, and after thinking, Bai Lang simply said in English a few sentences about where his name comes from and hoping to get along well with everyone and such. In his view, probably more than half of the students below wouldn't understand, but what he wrote down they should be able to read— however, the Japanese's listening and speaking abilities are another matter.
