Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 97 75. Shengnan
The one who came over to deliberately provoke and mock David and Gaius was a young man with blue mullet-shaped hair. He was wearing a neatly-made Arasaka Academy uniform. When he walked over, he was followed by two followers, one fat and one thin. Judging from his facial features, he had the temperament of a deputy company dog.

Gaius noticed that on the right side of his cheek, there was an obvious bionic skin connection mark. It would be easy for someone who could implant bionic skin to remove this mark, and it was unknown whether he had kept it on purpose.

The blue-haired boy did not notice Gaius's gaze. It was obvious that he was looking for trouble and his target was David. He walked in front of David and looked down at David relying on his height which was slightly taller than David.

"Yo, David, I thought you would cause some embarrassing incident in class today, but I didn't expect you to update the teaching software and even replace the equipment. That must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"It has nothing to do with you, Shengnan."

David frowned. He obviously didn't get along well with this classmate whom he called Shengnan.

"I never allowed you to call me by my name so intimately. But you are a poor man, so I can understand your lack of education."

The boy whom David called Shengnan took a step closer and stood very close to David.

"Don't worry, I don't mean to despise your poverty, because it is a fact, not something that needs to be emphasized and despised."

Shengnan stared into David's eyes and said:

"You may think that I'm targeting you because you're poor, but you're wrong. I'm a philanthropist. It's not your fault that you were born into a poor family. No one says that poor people can't go to Arasaka Academy, just like no one says that street thugs can enter Arasaka Academy as long as they can pay the money."

As he said this, Shengnan glanced at Gaius beside him, then looked back at David: "What disgusts me is your attitude, David."

"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you here, Shengnan."

"That's it, that's the attitude, David."

Shengnan looked at David, who looked annoyed, with an unhappy face:
"You always act like you don't care, even though you haven't studied much. You always score better than me who studies very hard, time and time again. Do you know how I feel every time I see you do very well in the exams, but then you act like you did poorly?"

"How do you feel, even if you say this."

David didn't quite understand, and he had no idea what Shengnan cared about: "You studied hard, and it was very hard, but that's your business, isn't it? I did poorly on the test, and I really did poorly on the test. I didn't deliberately act like I did poorly on the test."

"So, that's it, David. Why do you always act like it's a matter of course? As if it's supposed to be this way."

Shengnan stretched out her hand and put her index finger on David's chest: "Every time I work hard, I see you so relaxed, easily getting excellent grades, and sighing over there that you didn't do well in the exam. I can't help but feel sick in my heart. You know, seeing your existence is really too annoying. Who in the class is willing to get close to you? You're a freak who can't get along with anyone. You should drop out of school early."

Shengnan tapped David's chest with her index finger. "No one in the class welcomes a disgusting guy who can easily do better than them after hard work. He has an easy life but always acts like he is working hard. Every time we see a freak like you, we feel that all our efforts have become meaningless."

"This kind of thing has nothing to do with me."

David looked at the expressions of Shengnan and his two followers, as if he had made a huge mistake. He really couldn't understand: "Don't worry about my exams, why don't you just do your best? Why do you care about me so much?" "It's because of your existence that people have to care about you. Do you know how many people in your class are blamed by their parents because their grades are not as good as yours? Listen to what they say. I hired the best teacher for you and arranged the best educational conditions for you, but you are not even as good as a poor boy from Santo Domingo. Your existence is an eyesore."

Listening to the conversation between Shengnan and David, Gaius, who was standing next to them, roughly understood what was going on.

Simply put, a group of children of corporate bosses, who had the best educational resources but could not get better grades than David, a poor man, were under pressure from their parents. Under this top-down pressure, they found David's existence extremely annoying, and thus excluded him and wanted him to leave the college.

how to say.

As for Gaius's feelings, I can only say that this place is worthy of being called Arasaka Academy. A school founded in Japan, it always has this full Japanese flavor.

Exclude and suppress people who are different.

This top-down distortion had existed in Gaius's past, and by 2075, there had been no change at all.

It has a professional Japanese flavor.

"This is your business."

Looking up slightly and staring at Katsuo, David's tone was firm. He didn't particularly like Arasaka Academy, and he only studied here because of his mother's request. But even if he didn't like it, he had to continue on this path under his mother's expectations. What's more, now that he has met Gaius and has an income to support his family, it is absolutely impossible for him not to go to school.

"Humph, I didn't even think about letting you drop out of school just by talking."

Just as Shengnan was about to say something, a soft ringtone rang.

The break is over.

"You'd better not give me any evidence, David. I heard that you might be involved in Black Mewtwo recently. You should remember clearly that if you are involved in the sale of Black Mewtwo, you will be expelled from the academy."

After saying these harsh words, Shengnan hurried to the classroom with his two followers. He didn't want to be late because of anything related to David, as this would lower his grades.

Looking at his back, David listened to the ringing of the phone and was about to turn around and say something to Gaius, but when he turned around, he only saw Gaius' back.

"Don't worry, you only need to sell normal Mewtwo that doesn't violate the rules. Don't worry about him. If you feel scared, I'll take you to see the world after school to boost your courage."

This is the message Gaius left for him in the communication. As for why Gaius didn't say it in person but through the communication,
It's time for class, and going back to the classroom when the bell rings has almost become a habit engraved in Gaius' DNA.
