In the atrium of Danhai University, there is a huge cherry tree.
It was early spring, and the pink cherry blossoms were in full bloom, making the entire atrium shine with the brightness of spring.
However, in the first-year Class A classroom on the fourth floor of the main building next to the atrium, the color is much darker.
On the podium, the skinny old man explained in a smooth tone the haiku written on the blackboard behind him.
jingle--
The bell finally rang, announcing that the boring Chinese class was over.
The sluggish interim chairman suddenly became lively and energetic.
"stand up!"
"salute--"
Watching the Mandarin teacher in his fifties walk out of the classroom, Sogu turned his head and looked out the window, moving his somewhat dry eyes.
Next to the main building is the stadium. Physical education class ends five minutes early. At this time, only a few students in sportswear are still wandering around the field.
The next two classes of Class A in the first year are physical education.
"Excuse me……"
A little movement at the classroom door attracted his attention.
A student who seemed to be a second-year student walked into the classroom, said something to the girl sitting near the door, and then left;
The girl went to the interim chairman of Class A and told him what she said.
"Hey, is it true or false?"
"Probably...that's what the senior said."
"It's really troublesome."
Calling back the students who were about to leave the classroom, the acting chairman stepped onto the podium.
"Everyone--"
Fushimi Keisuke just turned around and looked back at him.
"What's wrong, Kinoshita?"
"The water pipe in the locker room burst. It is still being repaired and cannot be used. Everyone should change into their sportswear in the classroom."
"Eh——"
As soon as the chorus of screams here ended, it sounded again in Class B next door.
"Class A and Class B take physical education classes together..."
Soya vaguely heard someone say this, and then saw Yoshikawa Anko stand up.
"Let's discuss it with Class B. Let the girls change in Class A and the boys in Class B."
"It's too much trouble."
Acting Chairman Kinoshita Shoji hesitated, "It doesn't really matter if we close the curtains and let everyone change clothes together..."
"It does matter!"
Shoji Kinoshita, who was sent to Class B by the girls, quickly discussed the result with the other party.
"Why haven't you gone there yet?"
Akane Kirino took her sportswear and walked straight to Soya.
"We don't have much time. If Zonggu wants to hide here and take a peek, I can help you block it."
"This is over."
When we arrived in Class B, there was not a single girl left in it.
Soya unbuttoned his tie and unbuttoned his shirt when Fushimi Keisuke next to him suddenly bumped into him.
Needless to say, he also saw a few boys crowding around the window and looking around.
"Can you see it?"
"You can't see it."
Fushimi expressed disdain for this kind of behavior, but if he could really see something, he would feel very disadvantaged.
"No, absolutely invisible!"
Soya smiled, took off his shirt, folded it, and put on a sweatshirt.
"Sogu, you and the girl just now live together, right?"
"wrong."
Fushimi stopped to look at him while putting on his sports shorts, "Will there be a situation where I accidentally bump into the other person changing clothes in the morning?"
"You should listen to what others say."
Although the curtains were drawn, the corridor leading to Class A was still guarded by girls who had changed into sportswear. Soya, Fushimi and the other boys could only go downstairs from the other side.
When we arrived at the stadium, the school bell rang. Boys and girls attended classes separately, with a large distance between them.
"I am Tsuchiya!"
On the boys' side, the muscular physical education teacher stood at the front, his huge body matched with the muscles exposed outside his clothes, showing no anger or intimidation.
"Within the next year..."
This is the first meeting in the new semester, including self-introduction and class rules. There are a lot of things to explain, and it will inevitably take a long time.
It ended five minutes later. Tsuchiya waved his hand and asked the boys to run two laps around the playground to warm up.
"Is it just running when you first come up..."
"Add one more lap!"
"..."
Because of his height, Zong Gu stood on the far right side of the row during the formation, and he and another boy took the lead in running.
Before starting, he looked back and saw that the boys were quite energetic, and after starting, he realized the reason.
——Girls wearing shorts and bare thighs are on the edge of the runway ahead.
The girls' physical education teacher is a young woman with a ponytail and a heroic appearance.
When Zong Gu was running by with the boys, she suddenly picked up the whistle hanging around her neck and blew a whistle.
"Follow up!"
Dozens of girls from Class A and Class B all followed the running team.
"Can't see anymore..."
The boy next to Zonggu suddenly muttered something, and some low-pitched curses were faintly heard from the array behind him.
"..."
Including the penalty, the total of three laps of warm-up running suddenly became extremely long.
...
After running to warm up, Tsuchiya took the boys and did some preparatory exercises.
Squats, lunges, push-ups, sit-ups... After completing a series of actions, most of the first half of the class has passed.
"The long-distance running test will start in the next class, and you can train by yourself in the rest of the time. If you are confident enough not to train, you can do something else, and you can borrow the equipment yourself.
In short, don’t stop. If you let me see it..."
The physical education teacher glanced around with wide eyes, but the boys remained silent.
After asking, he learned that the next physical education class was in two days, and Souya breathed a sigh of relief.
After resting for a short while, the girls suddenly dispersed and seemed to have entered a stage of semi-free activities.
"Soya."
He turned his head and saw Fushimi Keisuke sitting with several boys.
"That black bear has returned to the staff room. Come and sit for a while. It won't be discovered."
Unlike Soya who came "thousands of miles away", Fushimi had many acquaintances when he came to high school. He also had several middle school classmates in Class A, and they all gathered together at this time.
He briefly introduced each other to both parties, and they were considered acquaintances.
"It would be too uncomfortable for a person to come from such a far away place and be alone in school."
Fushimi looked away and said in a casual tone, "Although Soya seems to be familiar with those girls... but it would be more relaxing to play with boys."
Zonggu opened his mouth.
"Thanks."
"What are you talking about..."
Because the tough physical education teacher left here, many people in the stadium chose to be lazy, and of course there were also people who were training.
Zong Gu sat among his new friends, listening to their conversation and occasionally interjecting a few words.
When boys of this age get together and talk about sports, games, and comics, they always end up talking about girls.
Before Soya met the third girl in Class A besides Asagiri Suzu and Yoshikawa Anko, the dozen or so boys around him—because they were more conspicuous together, attracting many boys to them—were already in their own classes.
The girls there did a comparison and the results were different.
When the topic turned to "the girls he admires most," the three girls he only knew in the first grade became frequent names in the mouths of most of the boys present - the boys in Class B also joined the discussion.
Yoshikawa Anko is an out-and-out beautiful girl, and she has the best grades since entering school. If Soya counts correctly, she has the most male fans in Class AB;
Akane Kirino is equally pretty and cute, but she doesn’t see many boys from Class A. The boys from Class B are quite sad because they often hear that she wants to transfer to Class A, so they take second place temporarily;
Although Asagiri Suzu has always been expressionless, and no one of the boys present has spoken to her except Soya, her petite body and childish and cute face have also attracted many boys who care about her. Although she is different in nature from the first two
There are some slight differences.
"I wish I had a sister like Asagiri-san..."
As for the other names, Zonggu couldn't match the faces in his mind, so he didn't pay much attention to them.
"Soya."
While they were chatting, Kirino Akane suddenly walked over and stopped in front of him.
"I have something to tell you."
"..."
The boys around him suddenly became silent.
Facing the fair and slender legs under the sports shorts, Zonggu was stunned for two seconds, but soon frowned again.
