Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before slaying the dragon

"Shilan Middle School." Lu Mingfei said resignedly.

"Why did you tell me the name of our school?" The Dean frowned even deeper. "Ask me which high school you graduated from? Are you embarrassed to tell me? Do you want to bring shame to your alma mater?"

"I mean, I graduated from Shilan High School." Lu Mingfei could only explain patiently, "Graduated in 2010, Class , Grade ..."

Lu Mingfei suddenly paused at this point. Even though he had graduated for so long, he still felt an instinctive discomfort when he said his name in front of the dean.

The dean was also stunned for a moment. Obviously, he had never associated this "criminal" with a student from his own school... Even though that unfamiliar female classmate was really unreserved, the dean subconsciously felt that she must have been seduced by a bad kid from another school. Even if the children of Shilan Middle School were rebellious, their rebelliousness was very limited.

But the back of this bad boy's head looks strangely familiar.

"Graduated from our school? What nonsense are you talking about? How could there be a poor student like you in our school?" The Dean was furious. He pulled Lu Mingfei's collar and twisted his face forcefully. "Why, you don't dare to look at me? You still feel embarrassed? Or are you afraid of being recognized..."

The three words "recognize" were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them out, because the dean saw Lu Mingfei's face... the face carved into a sculpture was right behind them!

The dean and Lu Mingfei looked at each other in silence for more than ten seconds. Normally, a person's eyes cannot sigh, but the dean indeed saw the emotion of "sigh" in Lu Mingfei's eyes. His expression also changed, from shock to confusion to helplessness and then to panic. The complexity of his emotions is definitely enough to be included in the textbooks of Beijing Film Academy.

"Road...road...road..." The dean of studies couldn't utter a word for a long time. He felt his tongue forming a Chinese knot in his mouth.

He still remembered what he had said just now: a poor student, bad behavior, bringing shame to his alma mater... Thinking of it, he wanted to jump up and slap himself a few times.

What do these negative words have to do with Lu Mingfei? As we all know, Lu Mingfei is one of the best students in Kassel College over the years. If we want to select the perfect graduate representative, there must be two people in the entire Shilan Middle School who get the highest votes, one is Chu Zihang, and the other is Lu Mingfei.

And when it comes to giving back and contributing to his alma mater, no one in the entire Shilan Middle School can match him. The old principal wants to treat him like a treasure, even more than his own son. It can be said that without Lu Mingfei, there would be no Shilan Middle School's current glory. In the eyes of the principal, all the outstanding student leaders, backbone elite teachers, including himself, the dean of studies, are not as good as Lu Mingfei!

Even if Lu Mingfei was openly in a premature relationship at school, the principal would most likely still praise our Lu Mingfei for being very charming, and believe that the relationship our Mingfei is in must be a positive relationship, a healthy relationship, a relationship between two reserve college students from a prestigious university... Not to mention that Lu Mingfei has graduated now. As long as it is not against the law, who can say anything even if he has ten girlfriends?

"Teacher, we are not in love. I am already married. This is... my distant cousin." Lu Mingfei looked at Jiude Mai hatefully, thinking that this guy had ruined him. "She is a distant relative, of a high generation but not very old. We were just chatting. She comes to the city seldom and has not seen much of the world. She gets nervous when there are many people around. She held me because she was afraid that I would get lost."

When Lu Mingfei said this, he could feel the flesh on his waist being twisted into a knot under the clutches of a certain woman, but he still kept a smile on his face... This distant cousin who came from the countryside has never seen the world, so what's wrong with being a little naughty?

Of course the dean didn't believe it. He thought it was a lie. With this girl's figure, temperament and pretty face, she could take off her school uniform and put on a long skirt and walk directly at the Paris Fashion Week. How could she be a poor relative from the countryside?

A poor relative from the countryside attending an aristocratic middle school?

Of course, it is impossible for the dean to expose it in person. As a representative of the second tier of powerful people in the school after the principal, vice-principal and secretary, the dean has a very good grasp of the ways of the world.

“Oh, so she’s a distant relative, your eldest aunt or eldest cousin, right? Got it.” The dean of studies climbed down the steps Lu Mingfei gave him. “I said Lu Mingfei is definitely not that kind of person. How could an outstanding young man who has been a city-level three-good student every year do something that disregards discipline and is immoral? The teacher misunderstood just now and didn’t recognize Lu Mingfei. My words were a bit harsh. Don’t take it to heart, Lu!”

"No, no, what I did with my cousin just now is easy to be misunderstood. I will be more careful next time." Lu Mingfei also smiled and said, "The teacher is doing his job for the school's atmosphere. I understand. It's an honor for Shilan Middle School to have such a responsible leader like the teacher!"

"It is a real honor for our school to have such an outstanding alumnus like Lu!" Seeing that Lu Mingfei was giving him such face, the dean of studies broke into a smile on his usually serious face, like a wrinkled old chrysanthemum.

Lu Mingfei glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and found that Jiude Mai had left him at some point, but she didn't go far away. She was standing about ten meters away, answering the phone. Her expression had become obviously serious, and she must be listening to something important.

The dean wanted to talk to Lu Mingfei, but a loud noise came from the school gate, attracting the attention of the surrounding students and parents.

The white-haired old man slowly walked into the gate of Shilan Middle School. His brown-black suit set off his slender and straight figure. Silver thin-rimmed glasses rested on his tall nose. The old man had the temperament of an elegant gentleman.

Next to the old man was a middle-aged man with golden hair. Although he was called a middle-aged man, he was in good shape. His golden hair shone like gold in the sun. He was wearing a white suit that was wide open with the buttons of the lining unbuttoned to his chest... It was obviously an expensive suit made of precious materials, but this man wore it with a temperament that was between a playboy and an aristocrat.

It was so eye-catching to see these two men with completely different temperaments walking together, just like seeing an emperor penguin and a golden Alaskan Kumar shopping together.

"The last time I came to China was four years ago. It has really changed a lot." The middle-aged man with blond hair looked around and said, "This shouldn't be considered a first-tier city, right? How could a middle school be built so magnificently?"

"Compared with the manor and monastery at home, is it considered magnificent?" the white-haired old man asked.

"Oh, there's no comparison." The golden man returned to his venomous nature. "Forget about the manor and the monastery. Compared with the garden of any elder in my family, this place is so shabby that it's only fit to be used as a garden toilet."

At this time, Jiude Mai's phone had been hung up, but her expression was a little solemn, and she walked hurriedly towards the school gate. It was unknown whether she had encountered some emergency or was hiding from someone.

When passing by the silver-haired old man and the blond middle-aged man, the middle-aged man lingered and whistled at Jiude Mai's slim back.

The students and parents around were all shocked by the man's arrogant attitude. This year, many of the freshmen at Shilan Middle School come from wealthy families. Some of their parents are in business or politics. The richest ones can compete with the most powerful Black Prince Group in the city, and the most powerful ones have an elder in their family who is even the second in command of the city.

But I've never seen anyone so rampant. After the renovation, Shilan Middle School has become a quasi-first-class international aristocratic school. Some people actually say that this place is not even as good as any toilet at home. The tone is so loud that it is simply scary.

But the golden-haired man does look like someone who is not easy to mess with. He has a handsome Hollywood face, a standard European appearance, but speaks fluent Chinese. No one can figure out where this guy came from. Maybe he is a real estate tycoon from some European country or something?

The dean of studies obviously also heard what the middle-aged man said, which sounded like a naked insult and contempt for Shilan Middle School to him... These words were really too harsh. Everyone had seen with their own eyes that Shilan Middle School was thriving, but this guy destroyed the proud self-esteem of the Shilan people with just a few words.

The dean walked towards the two men angrily. He had never seen these two guys who looked impressive but strange... but Lu Mingfei knew them. When he saw the two men walk into Shilan Middle School at the same time, he was so stunned that he stood there for a long time. He only came to his senses when the dean walked up to them.

"Who are you? How dare you break into the city's key high school?" The dean said to the white-haired old man and the blond middle-aged man in a timid tone, "I can call the police to arrest you right now, you know!"

"Isn't today the open day?" The silver-haired old man was not panicked at all. Instead, he smiled kindly and said, "We are visiting your school to look for someone."

"Looking for someone? Are you parents of students?" The Dean of Studies showed an uncertain expression, because Shilan Middle School did enroll quite a few overseas students this year. He looked at the silver-haired old man who was more talkative and asked, "Whose parents are you?"

"It's not the parent. The person we're looking for...oh, right over there." The silver-haired old man pointed behind the dean.

The dean turned around and saw Lu Mingfei jogging right in the middle of them.

"Well, well, let me introduce them." Lu Mingfei looked at the silver-haired old man and the blond middle-aged man, pointed at the dean and introduced them, "Teacher Wang, our Shilan Middle School's dean, has worked diligently in the school for 20 years. He has strong professional skills and a sense of responsibility. All the students like him."

"Well, I'm just a little more experienced, but not as outstanding as classmate Lu said." The dean of studies, who is so thick-skinned, felt a little embarrassed by the praise.

"As for these two." Lu Mingfei glanced at the silver-haired old man and the golden-haired man, "This one is Principal Ange, the principal of our Kassel Academy, a great educator and butcher...philosopher. The other one is Mr. Pompey, the current head of the largest school board family of our Kassel Academy."

The dean of studies immediately showed an expression of trepidation. He had of course heard of Kassel College. In the year when Lu Mingfei and his classmates graduated, Kassel College came to Shilan Middle School with great fanfare to recruit students and offered an unprecedented scholarship of more than 100,000 US dollars a year. It was a mysterious but powerful elite college.

Even though Shilan Middle School's reputation in the city is growing, high school and university are completely different in nature, especially this kind of private aristocratic university, which sometimes is inconspicuous but extremely rich.

Since the principal and the most senior board member of Kassel College were present, it was reasonable for the old principal of Shilan Middle School to welcome them personally.

"Well, well, well, Mingfei, take the principal and this Mr. Pang... school director to the foundation building to rest first. I'll go and inform the principal right away!" The dean's body was trembling slightly.

“No, no, Principal Ange and the others are here to see me, so I won’t trouble the school leaders.” Lu Mingfei waved his hands quickly.

Chapter 1024 Pompeii Gattuso

"Principal, why are you here?" Lu Mingfei asked Ange and Pompey calmly, in a voice so low that only the three of them could hear it.

"My most proud students all stayed here and didn't want to go back to school, so of course I had to come here to take a look." Angé's voice was not disguised, and he showed Lu Mingfei an expression that said, "Are you asking this question even though you already know the answer?"

Although Ange's expression was kind, like an old grandfather who cared about the children, Lu Mingfei didn't dare to relax at all, because there was no way the principal came just to see them or bring them back to school. Not to mention that such a violent elemental turbulence had gathered in the city some time ago, the fact that Pompey came with Ange was definitely not a simple matter... Lu Mingfei had no idea of ​​Pompey's position.

He also couldn't see through the principal's eyes.

"Really, Principal Angers? Are Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang also excellent students in Kassel College?" The Dean of Studies showed a shocked expression. He certainly couldn't guess what Lu Mingfei was thinking. In his opinion, Principal Angers of Kassel College really came to find Lu Mingfei and the others.

It can be seen from his attitude towards Lu Mingfei. The words he used to describe Lu Mingfei and others were “my most proud students”... University is different from high school. It is such a great honor to be described like this by the president of an aristocratic university and an outstanding educator. He even came all the way from the United States to see them and even brought the school’s biggest board member with him. This is no more than how he treats his own son, right?

"Yes, Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang, who graduated from your school, have excellent grades and are smart and capable. The professors have given them unanimous praise. They are also top-tier students in our Kassel College." Angers praised and appreciated Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang without hesitation. "No, their excellence is unique. Today, Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang are the pillars of Kassel College. They will also be the future leaders of the college. Thank you very much for sending us such excellent students. After returning to school, I will personally write a thank-you letter to the president of your school."

If the dean was shocked just now, he was simply terrified now. The value of these words was too high, and they were said in front of Lu Mingfei... Aristocratic universities in foreign countries are different from those in China. Many universities are private assets of certain mysterious families. Universities are not just schools, but also cradles of capital and talents. Therefore, generally speaking, it is difficult for commoners to enter the real upper echelons of the aristocracy. The sons of nobles are born nobles, and the sons of school directors are also likely to become school directors. No matter how outstanding the children of commoners are, they are just capable employees under the aristocratic school directors.

A private aristocratic university is just like a big family, it is a hereditary system... But the meaning of the principal's words clearly shows that he intends to train Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang towards management and leadership levels, and there is even a possibility that they will take over the position of principal!

This is incredible!

"Well, well, well... Then I'll go say hello to our principal, at least let him know, and meet you two." How could the dean of studies remain calm? "I know you two like to keep a low profile, so I'll ask the principal to meet you two, even if it's just for tea, it won't be a big deal!"

At Shilan Middle School, there are two schools that have always been praised by students as the top universities. One is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the other is Kassel College. You should know that even at the top universities in the country, Peking University and Tsinghua University, Shilan Middle School can get several places every year.

MIT is recognized as the world's number one in science and it sends a number of talents to various fields around the world every year. The difficulty of getting admitted can be imagined. Kassel College certainly does not have as prominent a reputation as MIT. It became famous in Shilan Middle School entirely because of two students, Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei... In the 50-year history of Shilan Middle School, there are tens of thousands of graduates. Only Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei have ever entered Kassel College. These two students were peerless geniuses who surpassed the talents of Shilan Middle School during their time at school.

Especially Lu Mingfei, who was admitted without recommendation, received personally by professors, and received an annual scholarship of more than 100,000 US dollars, which was simply unheard of in the history of Shilan Middle School.

There are quite a lot of legends about this mysterious Kassel College circulating in the student communication group of Shilan Middle School. Some say that the students there are either rich or noble, and that some of the largest chaebol families in Europe are behind this school. Some say that this school trains secret agents who are targeted for employment, and that the students trained are all world-class elites. Others say that they have seen the school emblem of Kassel College on the official websites of several European upper-class charity galas, and that the annual donations to this college amount to hundreds of millions of dollars... Various rumors emerge in an endless stream, and curious students search the Internet for information about Kassel College, but are surprised to find that the content they searched is quite limited.

This university, whose location is not even officially known, is undoubtedly synonymous with mystery in the hearts of all students at Shilan Middle School. The more mysterious something is in this world, the more it can arouse people's yearning.

And in any case, it is harder to get into Kassel College than into MIT, even though these two schools cannot be ranked on the same level in the world. But they are rich, arrogant, and awesome. They only recruit the most awesome and legendary students in your school. Even if others want to get in, there is no way, even if they get full marks in the college entrance examination, no matter how powerful their family is.

The dean of studies also realized that this was a rare opportunity. In recent years, there have been students who wanted to apply to Kassel College but had no way to do so. The leaders of Shilan Middle School also sent emails to the official email address of Kassel College many times to express the students' wishes, but all fell on deaf ears. Now, the principal and board members of Kassel College have come to the door. How can they not seize such a wonderful opportunity?

Although the dean of studies is not in charge of graduation work, he is also considered a member of the school's leadership. If the principal knew that he had let the principal and board of directors of Kassel College run away, he would definitely be in trouble. On the contrary, if he can help Kassel College expand its enrollment quota to Shilan Middle School, his career will be smoother in the future... The school leaders are all old, but he is not old, and he still has a desire to make progress!

"Oh my, I'm really not here to drink tea with you this time." Pompey waved his hand at the dean, "Besides, I've never appreciated tea. It's better to drink wine, but drinking with men is meaningless, and drinking with old men is even more boring. Drinking with beautiful girls is the way to cherish life."

The dean opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. He never thought that such words that sounded like a gangster or a ruffian would come from the mouth of a school director... He had a bad impression of the blond man from the moment he walked in. From his appearance to his clothes and conversation, he always gave people a frivolous feeling. Maybe he was cool and romantic in the eyes of girls, but this was a school, a key municipal middle school, with so many students and parents watching around. The dean saw that the other party was not simple, so he held back and didn't get angry.

Ange turned his head away. He thought to himself that he really shouldn't go out with this guy. Whether it was embarrassing or not was another matter. No one knew when this neurotic guy would suddenly say something inappropriate that would make people want to stamp the soles of shoes on his face.

Lu Mingfei also sighed. Although he had not seen this biggest school director very often, he had heard some rumors and reputation about him... This man was more flirty than the vice-president and Finkel. In terms of flirtiness, even the handsome student union president Caesar was just a guinea fowl compared to a peacock in front of his father.

"Is what I said weird? Don't look at me like that." Pompey shrugged. "Actually, every man thinks this way in his heart, but they just don't want to admit it. They're either not rich enough, not handsome enough, or not funny enough. Ask the old principal of your school if he was thirty years younger, whether he would prefer male or female students."

"You..." The dean really couldn't bear it this time. He wanted to scold the man, but reason stopped him. He was an educator, in front of so many students' parents, and the other party was a powerful person. He was wondering if there was any more tactful and implicit way to fight back against the other party's words.

But who knew that this guy would come up to him the next moment and put his arm around his shoulders.

"Don't be so serious, relax a little. You are a teacher in this school, right?" Pompey patted the dean's shoulder.

"Well... my last name is Wang, and I'm the Dean of Studies in the Academic Affairs Office." The Dean of Studies was shocked by this guy's behavior, but it was not easy for him to push him away directly. He had no idea what this weirdo was trying to do.

Is this really the head of a family? Isn't he a patient who escaped from a mental illness control center?

"So you have a say in this school?" Pompey asked.

"It's... kind of acceptable." The dean of studies replied woodenly.

"I'm not saying anything wrong, but the buildings, decorations, and gardens in your school are really ugly, cheap, and look very tasteless." Pompey sighed and shook his head. "For example, the gate at the entrance of your school, that pirated Pantheon, is a poor fusion of Baroque and Gothic styles. The guy who built this gate must have never been to Europe. And the lawn, the layers of the lawn are too unreasonable, and the viscosity of the soil is so low that it's hard to grow cacti. The feng shui of the building is not good either. It's built in the north corner but faces east. If Satan lived downstairs from you, he would definitely come out and curse you... Anyway, if your school is renovated next time, I suggest you change a group of designers."

The dean's eyes widened. He was completely bewildered. Was this guy talking so much just to belittle their school and show off his own aesthetic taste... The dean wanted to refute but had no idea how, because this man in the expensive suit looked like he knew a lot. A foreigner even brought up Feng Shui and talked about it. What else could he say?

"But..." Pompey changed the subject and pointed to a certain spot. "The aesthetics of this thing are quite good."

The dean and everyone looked in the direction of Pompeii's finger. Lu Mingfei took a deep breath and turned his head to the side... The two mythical beasts that Pompeii was pointing at were the ones that were carved out based on him and Chu Zihang!

The head of the Gattuso family, what kind of vision is this! What kind of aesthetics is this! If the aunties from the neighborhood committee of his aunt's community saw this thing, they would probably call it unfashionable!

"This is... based on the prototypes of Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang. Our principal specially commissioned someone to carve it, and it was just completed two weeks ago." The dean was confused by the other party's erratic attitude and stuttered when he spoke.

"I was wondering if they looked familiar. Sure enough, they are the faces of Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang." Pompey nodded. The more he looked at the two statues, the more he liked them. "Not bad, not bad. They look quite imposing, like the guardian beasts of the school."

"That's because we hope that the students at Shilan Middle School can take them as role models..." the dean corrected. But in fact, the principal's real thought was that he felt that Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang could bring him good luck and he hoped that there would be more such outstanding people in the school.

"Then I will also commission you to make two statues and place them between the two of them." Pompeii said casually, but with an air of commanding the whole country.

"Mr. Board Director, I just said that this is to commemorate the outstanding graduates of our Shilan Middle School. The existence of the statue serves as an incentive. Isn't it a bit presumptuous of you to make such a request when you come to our Shilan Middle School for the first time?" The Dean of Studies frowned, and his words were not so pleasant this time. The main reason was that he really couldn't stand this person. The first time he came to someone else's territory, he asked others to erect a statue for you. He thought that he could do whatever he wanted just because he had money. Isn't this just a psychopath?

Pompey seemed indifferent to his words. He took out a pen and a piece of paper from his lining pocket and started drawing something on the paper.

"Sir, if you really..." The dean wanted to say something, but Pompey threw a piece of paper at him and he quickly reached out to catch it.

"What is this?" The dean looked at the string of flamboyant numbers on the paper.

"Oh, it's just a check. Didn't I ask you to help me erect the statue? I asked for it, of course I'll pay." Pompey waved his hand and said, "You can use the rest to renovate the school or keep it for yourself, it's up to you. I only care about the quality of the statue and that it be erected in the most conspicuous place in your school."

"This! This! This!" The dean of studies completely stuttered. He was so scared.

He counted the numbers on the paper over and over again... It was an astronomical number, absolutely an astronomical number! The liquid assets of the entire Shilan Middle School Foundation were not even a fraction of that!

Such a huge sum of money is enough to buy half of the school, and it is just used to erect two statues... What do you mean by an irresistible number? This is a fucking irresistible number!

Although the dean knew that Pompey's request was unreasonable, he couldn't say anything to refuse the number.

"Any international bank can exchange it for cash. Just tell me the name Gattuso and the bank manager will serve you in the VIP room." Pompey said, and took out a photo from another pocket.

Chapter 1025 Psychological Game

Pompey pulled a photo out of his pocket and handed it to the dean.

"The statue should be based on these two people, especially their faces. The more similar they are, the better." Pompeii said casually, "Let's make it a wedding theme."

After saying these two sentences, Pompey walked towards the Shilan Middle School Foundation Building on his own without needing anyone's guidance, as if he had decided from the beginning that somewhere in the building was his destination.

After shaking his head apologetically at the dean, Angers left in the same direction as Pompey.

Lu Mingfei looked at Pompey and Ange, then looked at the dean who was standing there in a daze. He sighed deeply and quickly chased after Pompey and Ange… There was no need to care about these minor fights. The most important thing was that Pompey and Ange were obviously heading towards the conference room. All the seniors from Kassel Academy were there. Lu Mingfei didn’t know what the purpose of these two big men coming here in person was. He was the mastermind of this incident. If these two people really came to hold him accountable, he had to take the responsibility, so he had to be present.

The dean looked down at the photo in his hand. It was a candid shot. A handsome man with blond hair and a girl with red hair were on a beach in a European country. One was shirtless, revealing perfect muscle lines like an ancient Greek statue, and the other was wearing a three-point bikini. Her waist and thighs were so beautiful that she could be a fashion show. On the white sailboat, the boy hugged the girl and posed in a "You jump I jump" pose.

"The theme of the wedding, please, brother, this is a school..." The dean showed a tearful expression, then he turned his head and saw the string of numbers on the check in his other hand. He gritted his teeth, and his expression gradually became firm, as if he had made some important decision.

"Principal, what do you think of the theme of the engagement during graduation season..." The Dean of Studies took out his phone and called the old principal of Shilan Middle School. "Ah, no, I'm not crazy. Someone just reported a string of numbers that would make someone betray their personality... Wait a minute, I'll go to your office to discuss it in detail!"

……

Shilan Middle School, Foundation Building, Conference Hall.

The elite young generation of Kassel Academy who gathered here all stood up, their bodies tense... except for Eri, who stood up simply because she saw that everyone else had stood up. In fact, she didn't know what was going on, but she could sense everyone's emotions. Everyone was in a state of being on guard against a powerful enemy. The term "on guard against a powerful enemy" is actually not accurate, because no one had the will to fight. They were like children who were caught doing bad things by adults. A tense atmosphere spread in the conference room.

Originally everyone was sitting upright, but ever since Lu Mingfei left with Jiude Mai, the atmosphere in the meeting room had become a little cold. Although Odin's issue had been temporarily resolved, Chu Tianjiao's whereabouts were still unknown, and people from the academy were about to come looking for them, and their lineup was unexpectedly grand. Everyone felt a sense of innocence as if they had risked their lives but gained nothing, and in the end they would be held accountable.

The moment the door of the conference room was pushed open, everyone jumped up unconsciously when they saw the two figures entering the door. Principal Ange's aura was too strong. Although he looked like a fashionable and amiable old man, those who really knew this old man would never forget his title of "the strongest dragon slayer". Under that easy-going appearance, there was a solemn and bloody aura.

Besides Ange, everyone is concerned about another person, the middle-aged man with golden hair, Pompey Gattuso… the most elusive school director, the current head of the Gattuso family. No one knows why he came, but everyone feels that his appearance here must be bad.

"Young people, long time no see." Angers greeted everyone in the conference room enthusiastically, with a smile on his face as kind as a grandfather next door. "Sit down, don't be nervous, it's not class time now."

No one sat down immediately...except Eri, who didn't think much about it and sat down as soon as the principal told her to.
