Beside her, Ichirai Hisako glanced at Sing Sing.

Old Zhou's ears burned, and he hurriedly stuffed the book into the drawer, pressing down the protruding corners with his fingers.

"Classmate Shi Lai, when you looked at me just now, did you notice the writing on my face, or did you think I looked like your long-lost relative?"

Ichirai Hisako looked away, her tone calm. "You weren't this shy when you took the teacher's photo album."

"That's called safekeeping!"

Sing Sing stubbornly retorted, "The spiritual nourishment of educators can easily harm their physical and mental health if it falls into the hands of bad people!"

Throughout the class, Eikichi Onizuka would sneak over from the podium every few minutes.

First ask Sing Sing if he slept well last night, then ask if his photo album was scratched.

Finally, he solemnly promised to give Sing Sing a perfect score on the exam, and only then did he get back the treasured book that he had lost and found again.

Before leaving, Onizuka checked the book over and over again to make sure the cover was free of creases, then tucked it into his arms as if he were holding a long-lost child.

The next two classes were eerily quiet.

The teacher looked at the group of students listening quietly below, her eyes welling up with tears.

If everyone can maintain this momentum, then there is still hope for Toyo High School!

When the lunch break bell rang, Sing Sing strolled slowly toward the cafeteria with his hands in his pockets.

When Liu Jianyi was away on a business trip, no one prepared lunch for him, and he was too lazy to go outside the school to buy food.

Just as I was pondering what to eat, a commotion arose ahead.

"Hey, hurry up! What are you dawdling for? I'm starving!"

Three boys wearing open-fronted uniforms and with brightly colored hair were crowding in front of the food serving window.

The chubby uncle serving the food smiled obsequiously and hurriedly added two more fried pork chops to the plate.

The blond-haired man picked up the plate but didn't leave. Instead, he moved it to stand in front of a female student.

The girl, with her bangs and round-framed glasses, startled me and took a half-step back.

"Hey~ Isn't this that... the top student girl from first grade?"

The blond-haired guy reached out and tried to lift the girl's chin. "Come on, come eat with me on the rooftop. I'll share the pork chop with you."

The two henchmen next to him burst into laughter.

Tears welled up in the girl's eyes, but she didn't dare to make a sound.

The students queuing around them stepped back, no one willing to step forward at this moment.

Sing Sing stood behind and picked at his ear.

These punks, they're barely grown up and they're already harassing young girls?

I didn't want to get involved, but this scene was just too much to bear...

"Let go of that girl!"

The blond-haired man withdrew his hand that was trying to touch the other person and turned around to look at Sing Sing.

"Who are you? How dare you tell our GPS people what to do?" the blond-haired man cursed angrily, "Dressed like an old relic, are you tired of living?"

GPS?

Oh, this is the influence of another senior high school leader, Genji Takiya.

"I don't care if it's GPS or PHS. Bullying a young girl in broad daylight, don't you have any conscience?"

"Court death!"

A fat guy next to the blond-haired man swung his fist and punched him.

Sing Sing shifted his body to the side, raised his right leg, and delivered a knee strike to the fat man's stomach.

"Vomit..."

The fat man knelt on the ground, clutching his stomach, his face flushed.

Seeing this, the blond-haired man flew into a rage, threw down his plate, pulled out a baton from his waist, and swung it down at Sing Sing's head.

Sing Sing extended his left hand, his index and middle fingers together, easily gripping the baton.

The blond-haired man swung the baton twice with force, but it didn't budge.

"Young man, don't get so angry."

Sing Sing snatched the baton and flicked the blond-haired man's forehead.

Thump!

The blow made the blond-haired man see stars, and he collapsed to the ground.

Seeing that things were going badly, the remaining skinny man turned and ran.

"Who is this guy? He even dares to hit Genji's men?"

"He's a new transfer student in Class 3-D, his name is Hoshino Seiichi."

"It's over, the GPS people won't let him get away with this."

Sing Sing ignored this, bent down to pick up the fried pork chop that Huang Mao had dropped on the ground, blew off the dust, and put it into his plate.

"Wasting food is shameful."

He turned around, intending to comfort the female student who had just been bullied, but he couldn't see her at all.

They ran away already?

Sing Sing was a little puzzled. Young people these days really don't know how to be polite; they can't even say thank you.

He carried his tray to the food serving window and knocked on the glass.

"Uncle, a bowl of rice, please, with extra sauce. This pork chop is free, okay?"

Rooftop.

Genji Takiya leaned against the barbed wire fence, a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

His hairstyle was cool, a slicked-back style with clean-shaven sides.

From Crows

"What's Serizawa up to lately?"

Genji fiddled with the lighter in his hand and asked his trusted confidant Izaki Shun.

Izaki Shun leaned against the wall, smoking. "Same old story, playing mahjong on the rooftop with his gang."

He gestured with his chin towards the teaching building. "However, a tough nut came from Class 3-D; one punch forced Serizawa back half a step."

"One punch?" Genji raised an eyebrow. "Serizawa went easy on him, didn't he?"

"That guy's name is Hoshino Seiichi. He wears an old-fashioned Zhongshan suit and does things out of character. He took over Class 3-D as soon as he arrived at the school."

Just then, the iron gate was pushed open.

The skinny man stumbled up to the rooftop, crying, "Big brother! You have to stand up for us!"

He knelt down with a thud, covered his forehead, and began to complain.

Genji frowned. "What's going on?"

"It's that new transfer student, Hoshino Seiichi!"

The skinny man wiped his eyes, and immediately changed his story.

"My brothers and I were patiently queuing up for food in the cafeteria when that kid cut in line. I was so angry that I said a few words to him, and without saying another word, he attacked me!"

Izaki Shun sneered, "With your behavior, you think you can even stand in line properly?"

The skinny guy shrank back, quickly changing the subject. "That's not the point! The point is that kid is too arrogant!"

"After he beat us up, he pointed his finger at me and yelled, 'What's GPS anyway?' He said, 'Brother Genji, you're just a non-mainstream guy with a slicked-back hairstyle. You're not even worthy to carry my shoes!'"

He also said that he was determined to be at the top of Toyo High Schools! Anyone who dared to disagree would have their legs broken!

Izaki Shun threw his cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out. "Are you sure he said those things?"

The skinny man patted his chest and assured him, "It's absolutely true, I heard it with my own ears."

Genji Takiya had already realized that there was some exaggeration involved.

He had never been interested in any transfer students, not even when the second-year students were charmed by the sea urchin-headed boy and the golden retriever.

His only target is Serizawa Tamao.

But now, their own people have been attacked, and the other side is using GPS as a pretext to rise to power.

If we tolerate this, who will respect him in the future?

The thumb flicked the lighter's flint wheel, and a flame shot up.

"Walk."

"Where to?" Izaki Shun asked.

"Let's go to the cafeteria and see who's at the top."
