Although Butei High was an institution for nurturing Butei, it was also a regular high school. Naturally, as students of Butei High, they had to attend regular high school classes; otherwise, it would create serious educational issues.
However, compared to regular high schools, Butei High placed less emphasis on regular courses. So, in Butei High, only the first four periods involved regular high school classes, while the fifth period onwards focused on specialized courses.
For example, students in the Assault Department would undergo combat technique training as their specialized course. Each specialty had its own dedicated facilities. Starting from the fifth period, students would head to their respective specialty buildings for training.
Before the fifth period, all students, regardless of their specialties, attended classes together, sharing general courses.
Therefore, after passing the entrance exam for the Assault Department, Fang Li had to return to Butei High to check which class he was assigned to. And naturally, Tohyama Kinji, with an equally reluctant expression, followed along.
At the bulletin board, they found their names and fell into silence simultaneously.
“Fang Li, Class 1-A.”
“Tohyama Kinji, Class 1-A.”
In other words, not only were they both Butei students from the Assault Department, but they were also placed in the same class for regular courses.
“What a fate…”
“Can’t be…”
Fang Li chuckled, not expecting to end up in the same class as the original main character. Life after this realization would probably never be boring.
Tohyama Kinji’s reaction was understandable as well. In his mind, Fang Li had long become indistinguishable from a devil. However, that didn’t mean Tohyama Kinji didn’t understand his strength when entering that mode.
Fang Li, with his own abilities, could defeat him in his Hysteria Mode without any weapons, even almost causing him to go into a complete breakdown. This evoked a certain sense of awe from Tohyama Kinji toward Fang Li.
However, with Fang Li’s subsequent teasing, that awe turned into something completely different.
Tohyama Kinji could already imagine how his life would be with someone who shared the same specialty and class, someone who could suppress his Hysteria Mode. It would undoubtedly be at the bottom of the food chain, a state of being eaten alive.
“This is bad…” Tohyama Kinji muttered almost unconsciously. “My high school life is over…”
Seeing Tohyama Kinji’s dejected expression, Fang Li found it amusing and said. “I’m not going to eat you, so what are you afraid of?” Fang Li smirked playfully. “At most, I’ll have you run errands for me, buy things for me, and if I’m in a good mood, I might even give you some pocket money. How about that?”
“Do you see me as your little brother?!” Tohyama Kinji retorted in exasperation. “By the way, did you really come from a regular middle school? You don’t look like one at all!”
In the eyes of the public, the image of Butei was not exactly stellar. So, even if there were students who came from regular high schools to apply for Butei, most of them were somewhat afraid of the pre-Butei students who came from affiliated middle schools, until they gradually got used to it.
However, Fang Li showed no such tendencies; instead, he completely turned the tables on Tohyama Kinji, who came from an affiliated middle school.
Moreover, Fang Li’s strength was also a concern.
From the perspective of a regular high school student, possessing superhuman strength like Fang Li’s was definitely not ordinary. Thoughtful, Tohyama Kinji started to feel puzzled.
Fang Li merely shrugged, looking indifferent as he spoke. “Your suspicion is correct, but if you want to know the truth, don’t expect to get it from the mouth of a criminal. Since we’re Butei, we investigate and deduce things on our own.”
“Have you already started considering yourself a criminal?” Tohyama Kinji couldn’t help but retort, then sighed shortly after. “But you’re right; asking you directly would be an invasion of your privacy. I’ll be more sensible and stop asking.”
“Smart decision,” Fang Li responded casually, then smiled. “However, considering how things are developing, we might end up crossing paths more often. Let’s hope we don’t even end up sharing a dorm together.”
With that, Fang Li turned and walked towards the school gate. Tohyama Kinji, on the other hand, was dumbfounded.
“Is this for real?”
Same specialty, same class, and now possibly the same dorm?
Would they have to spend twenty-four hours a day together?
The thought left Tohyama Kinji feeling uneasy. He hurriedly caught up with Fang Li. He needed to confirm this for the sake of a peaceful life in the future.
“Why are you following me?”
“I want to see which dorm you’ve been assigned to.”
“Is that really important?”
“It is.”
“True, even if we end up in the same dorm, you won’t be able to bring girls back.”
“Even if we’re not in the same dorm, I wouldn’t! I hate girls the most!”
For Tohyama Kinji, girls were dangerous characters who could trigger his Hysteria Mode. Even though Hysteria Mode granted him formidable combat power, he absolutely didn’t want to turn into someone who made disgusting remarks during its activation.
As Fang Li and Tohyama Kinji bantered, they arrived at the school gate. However, just as they were about to walk out, a timid voice called out to them.
“Um, excuse me, which one of you is Tohyama Kinji?”
When they heard the voice, both Fang Li and Tohyama Kinji stopped in their tracks and turned to look behind them.
In the next moment, both of them froze.
Before them stood a girl in Butei High’s uniform.
Her skin exposed to the air was as pure and white as snow. Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down her back, neat and silky. A white ribbon was tied to the top of her head, forming a cute bow.
She was like a beautiful girl stepping out of a painting.
Radiating a gentle aura, she was the epitome of a ‘Yamato Nadeshiko’.
(“Translator- Yamato Nadeshiko means the personification of an idealized Japanese woman”, or “the epitome of pure, feminine beauty”; poised, decorous, kind, gentle, graceful, humble, patient, virtuous, respectful, benevolent, honest, charitable, faithful.)
However, at this moment, a trace of unease could be seen on the young girl’s face.
As they looked at the young girl, Fang Li and Tohyama Kinji were stunned for different reasons.
