In April, one month has passed since the last time Nagano Narumi arrived. Now that the school holidays are over, Milan Private High School has also started.
Each school year in Japanese schools is divided into three semesters. The school starts in April and September. There are winter vacation, spring vacation and summer vacation. Specifically, the first semester is from April to August, the second semester is from September to December, and the third semester is from January to March. moon.
School starts in April now, and today is the first day of school in Milan Private Middle School. Pei Ziyun finished breakfast, packed his things, and rushed to school at the urging of his mother.
Milan Private Middle School is one of the best middle schools nearby, and the Yamada family spent a lot of money to allow Ziyun to study in this middle school.
Its schedule is the same as that of almost all middle schools, starting at 8:00 in the morning and ending at 3:40 in the afternoon. However, although it is not far from Yamada's house, you still have to take a train to get there.
Pei Ziyun got on the tram. There were many people on the tram, but it was relatively quiet. Usually no one talked, but it seemed a little different today. Some people got on the tram and were still talking in low voices.
"Nakajima, have you read "Samurai Under the Cherry Blossoms" in Shiraishi Magazine? The writing style is a bit cold, but the writing is really interesting." A man whispered.
"Koga-kun, you haven't read the latest issue yet. Although it's the same author, his thoughts in "The Kagamimon Incident" are deeper and more cruel. Tsk tsk tsk, it can be said that it is as beautiful as cherry blossoms. "
"Haha, you are all out of date. I heard that the author's third and first novel "Who is the Second Person" is ready to be published as a book."
"Really? This is considered a formal debut, right? It went really well!"
"Isn't this a matter of course for those who have strength?"
The three people were talking, and their voices could not help but become a little louder. At this time, a passenger coughed. When they heard the cough, the three of them all turned slightly red, bowed their heads slightly to apologize, and stopped talking.
Pei Ziyun heard the conversation when the three of them got in the car, but he didn't expect to hear them talking about his published works. For a new author, it is already good to arouse discussion. From this point of view, Baishi Academy Press It still has a certain influence, Pei Ziyun thought to himself.
Speaking of which, although this period of time is not long, it is not short either.
After Pei Ziyun authorized Sanqianko Sakagami, she solved the problem of signing a contract with Shiraishi Gakukan Publishing House for herself, and successively handed over "The Samurai Under the Sakura" and "The Kagami Gate Incident" to Shiraishi Gakukan's magazine for publication. .
Unsurprisingly, "Samurai Under the Cherry Blossoms" and "Kacamamimon Incident" were well received, and the name of the newcomer Yamada Shinichi also attracted attention.
Many people are asking who Yamada Shinichi is, and some people who are interested in literature and have some status directly call Shiraishi Gakukan Publishing House to ask for information about Yamada Shinichi.
Fortunately, the agreement between Sanchiko Sakagami and Shiraishi Academy included a three-year confidentiality clause - the reason is very good. Although in Japan, you can get married at the age of sixteen, but if you are under sixteen, you are too young and should be protected. , don’t let the outside world disturb you.
Shiraishi Gakukan agrees with this.
Two days ago, Pei Ziyun also officially handed over the authorization of "Who is the Second Man" to Baishi Academy. The review recognized the strength and the second phase of Shiraishi Gakuen, which had a good response, increased its investment in Yamada Shinichi. Therefore, after the approval of "Who is the Second Man", Shiraishi Gakuen did some publicity work.
This is really pleasant.
"Sakagami did a good job, and the work at Shiraishi Academy is also exciting." Pei Ziyun was still in a happy mood. The train was not very fast, but he still arrived at the school in time.
Pei Ziyun came down and walked a few steps to arrive at Milan Private Middle School. Before he could enter, someone rushed towards Pei Ziyun and shouted loudly: "Yamada, am I, Kota Toyama, not your best friend? Why? I can’t find you this holiday, what a bastard!”
Pei Ziyun looked at the boy in front of him - Toyama Kota. He was Yamada Shinichi's friend. He had thick black eyebrows and big eyes. He was wearing a white top, shorts, and a hat, and he complained.
"Ah, I'm so sorry, Toyama, I'm going to travel and practice kendo during the holidays!" Pei Ziyun said to Toyama Kouta.
"Ah, is that so?" Toyama Kouta touched his head, found that he only touched his hat, and put his hand down again.
Toyama Kota is Yamada Shinichi's best friend. To Toyama Kota, it is incredible that Pei Ziyun did not play with him during the holidays.
Fortunately, Toyama Kouta is an impatient person, and his enthusiasm for anything does not exceed three minutes. After a few perfunctory words, he no longer cares about it.
Rolling his eyes, Toyama Kouta quickly shifted his attention, looked around and exclaimed: "It's really lively!"
The main gate of the school says "Welcome New Students". When you enter the main road, both sides have been occupied by the stalls of various clubs. They are filled with introductions, honors and works of each club. Seniors and seniors wearing the same uniforms all hold a stack of Something, handing out club leaflets.
As Kota Toyama walked away, he said to Pei Ziyun: "I have inquired about it. Milan Private Middle School, even the junior high school, must join a club. This is really troublesome. Not everyone is looking forward to it!"
"There are always some people who have no interest in clubs and only like a comfortable life!"
"But since it's a school policy, there's nothing we can do about it."
"You are studying well. Are you going to sign up for the study club? If you also practiced kendo during the holidays, why not join the kendo club?"
Pei Ziyun was noncommittal, looking at the cheerful crowd and the dazzled freshmen, and said: "It doesn't matter whether it's exercise or interest, they are all the same? Do you know what a worker ant is?"
"...Although I don't understand what you are talking about, I still feel that it is full of malice!" Toyama Kouta said.
After a while, Pei Ziyun (￣_￣) asked Toyama Kouta beside him: "As for the Kendo Club, do you think that if I defeat all the seniors, can I become the general?"
"What? Yamada, how could you have such an idea?"
"Respect for seniors is a must. Regardless of whether you can do it or not, even if you do it, you will be regarded as a bad boy by the school and seniors. The lightest case will be isolation, and the worst case will be expelled." Toyama Kouta opened his eyes. He blinded himself and stared at his friend Yamada Shinichi with surprised eyes.
At this time, an elderly person passing by said: "Hey, are you a new student who has just entered school? How about joining our poetry club? If you join our poetry club, you will have great benefits!" As he said this, he also took out his hand. Two flyers introducing the poetry club were given to Pei Ziyun and Toyama Kota.
Toyama Kouta looked at the person in front of him who was wearing second grade clothes, and quickly lowered his head and said, "Hello, senior!"
"Let's take a look first. If you want to join the poetry club, we will contact you." Pei Ziyun (￣_￣) said with a smile on his face and his head slightly lowered.
When the second-year senior walked over, Pei Ziyun said to Toyama Kota: "Look, these are the worker ants, and the seniors are the class - if you don't understand, there is nothing you can do. Come with me!"
"Hey, Yamada, what do you want to do? Where do you want me to follow you?" Toyama Kouta asked in confusion as he followed Pei Ziyun.
"Also, Yamada, shouldn't we sign up for a club first? What's the matter with wandering around now? And if it's too late after the meeting and all the good club members are full, that won't be good. "
Toyama Kota followed Pei Ziyun for a while and found that he had arrived at an activity room.
Pei Ziyun opened the door and went in. Only then did Toyama Kouta see the student union sign.
Suddenly, Toyama Kouta was trembling with fear. You bastard, Yamada, you came to this place for nothing. This is not a place for wandering around. If people from the student union find out that we are wandering around here without anything, what if the president knows about it? and get angry, what should I do
If I apologize immediately, can I be forgiven
These thoughts flashed through Toyama Kouta's mind quickly. Thinking of this, he wanted to pull Pei Ziyun's clothes to stop him from going in at will.
However, before Kota Toyama stretched out his hand, Pei Ziyun was already inside. The solid wood floor was soaked in tung oil and wiped clean. The space was large and divided into offices. There were people working in the back. Occasionally, people came and went and talked in low voices. It seemed Just like a government or a company.
Pei Ziyun was slightly impressed. The student union (student union) in primary and secondary schools in Japan is guided by teachers and organized by students. It has a student general meeting, an executive committee, an inspection committee, and various special committees responsible for the coordination and implementation of student-related activities. , is a standard mini-type "government".
To some extent, it can be seen as a preview of political participation, community operations and other matters in real society when students grow up.
In other words, the basic principles for the operation of the student union are the same as those in the adult world. Democratic elections, the minority obeys the majority, and the school rules and student union procedures are the guidelines. If it is put into society, it is nothing more than the parliament and the law as the guidelines for management.
"Elementary schools would rather give in to knowledge education than cultivate recognition of order. Junior high schools and colleges use clubs to allow students to integrate into the group except for studying and sleeping."
"Simply this is just cultivating a group of worker ants."
"But starting in junior high school, outstanding people come to power through elections and handle student affairs in an orderly manner. The Japanese animated TV series may be a bit exaggerated, but it is true that you do not get to power by pleasing the teacher and studying well. This trains management talents. "
"Those who cannot stand out are trained to be soldiers who obey orders. Those who stand out are given status, and management skills are cultivated from an early age. The training of Japanese education is very clear and very clever!"
With emotion in his heart, Pei Ziyun bowed 15 degrees to a girl: "You must be the president, I am Yamada Shinichi, a freshman in Class A of the first year, and this is Kouta Toyama, sorry to bother you, please take care of me!"
Toyama Kouta had no choice but to bite the bullet and bowed his head deeply: "President, I'm really sorry to bother you, please take care of me!"
The girl also bowed her head and returned the greeting: "Hello, I am Seiko Harada, the 31st president of Milan Private High School. Please give me your advice."
After she returned the courtesy politely, she looked at the two of them and said, "What can I do for you?"
Pei Ziyun didn't beat around the bush and said directly: "President, I'm here to apply to establish a new society."
The student union is also responsible for the establishment of clubs, but this aspect of work is mainly the responsibility of the president. Because clubs are very important to the school, it is not easy to establish clubs. Not only does it need to be reviewed, but many aspects need to be taken into consideration.
"What kind of club do you want to build?" To the surprise of Kota Toyama, Harada Seiko did not get angry, but asked.
Of course, Harada Seiko was also very curious at this time, because generally speaking, most of the students who established clubs were second-year and third-year students. This was the first time she had seen freshmen who had just entered the school want to establish a club.
Because establishing a club not only requires a program of activities, but also a certain number of people to join, and it is difficult for new first-year students to recruit club members.
"President, please listen to my dream. What I want to build is... to dominate the nation!" Pei Ziyun ignored her thoughts, paused, and shouted loudly.
