Chapter 412: Chapter 378 Qingshan Ancient Corpse
Many students sitting in the back row, just like Wang Qiang, had not finished their homework over the winter break.
Initially happily munching on a steamed bun, Wang Qiang’s expression fell. He had just forgotten about it, and now someone had brought it up again.
"Man, who didn’t? I only wrote Chinese."
"Hehehe, I did one better, I also wrote math."
"Qiangzi, math’s easy to write, right? It’s all numbers. Just scribble something and you’re good," Wang Qiang said with the tone of an insider.
"It’s useless even if you write it. The math teacher isn’t fierce. If you don’t write, at most you’ll get scolded a bit, or you’ll have to stand as punishment for a few classes. I don’t care."
That made sense, and the others nodded upon hearing it.
"That’s true, as long as you’ve written Master Extinction’s Chinese homework, you’re fine."
"Absolutely, who dares not to write Chinese? The title ’Master Extinction’ is not to be taken lightly."
"She’s been teaching for fourteen years, and the title ’Master Extinction’ has been circulating for thirteen years. You can imagine the deterrent power~"
Wang Qiang and the others heard about Master Extinction’s reputation as soon as they entered the school, though they didn’t know who started the rumor.
That’s how it is in a student’s life, some information you don’t know where it comes from, but everyone knows it.
And Master Extinction, in one term, had confirmed everyone’s opinion of her without any doubt.
Otherwise, these troublemakers wouldn’t have all written their Chinese essays.
"Eh, Brother Jiang Xiao, why aren’t you speaking? It’s not like you."
Jiang Xiao: ....
Through these troublemakers calling him brother, Jiang Xiao also understood what his "position" was.
"Stop it, my brother Jiang Xiao didn’t touch a single word of his homework over the winter break. His main thing is being tough."
Jiang Xiao: ....
For some reason,
he suddenly felt a sense of panic that shouldn’t exist.
Is this a Kaidan?
Nothing is a problem that can’t be solved with one sword... uh, the sword has been borrowed, so there’s nothing that can’t be solved with an electric cannon, right?
But the feeling people around him were giving off was just too strange, not eerie...
Especially when it came to not doing homework.
Jiang Xiao experienced for the first time what "fear and trepidation" felt like.
"Jiang Xiao, here, a sophomore sister sent this to you!"
A female classmate, with her face flushed and head lowered, ran over, stuffed a letter into Jiang Xiao’s hand, and then ran back without looking back.
Oh?
A bunch of teasing sounds erupted nearby, and kids from the next class even whistled at Jiang Xiao.
"Silence."
A powerful voice spread across the playground.
A round, bald man strode towards the podium.
Judging by his pompous mannerisms, he was likely one of the headmasters.
At that moment, a middle-aged woman, wearing narrow-framed glasses, her face dark, her brows furrowed, as if everyone owed her money, showed up and stood behind the class without a word.
That was Jiang Xiao’s side.
It was Master Extinction herself, renowned for being merciless.
Everyone immediately quieted down.
Even the troublemakers in the back row of the next class shrank their necks under her deterrent presence.
The big name of Master Extinction was known by all.
Jiang Xiao’s mouth twitched, and he felt very uncomfortable under this suppression, but he didn’t know what to say when he opened his mouth.
Could this be professional suppression?
At this point, the principal on the podium had begun to speak.
"Dear students, before the assembly starts, as the principal, it’s necessary for me to wish you, belatedly, a Happy New Year!"
Silence...
The silence continued...
Finally, a teacher couldn’t stand it any longer, took the lead in clapping, and also motioned for the students from their class to join in.
Only then did a sparse round of applause break out on the playground.
Facing this awkward situation, the principal showed no change in expression, whether he didn’t care or pretended not to care.
"Alright, students, I know you’ve just had a pleasurable holiday, and it may be hard to devote yourself fully to studying all of a sudden,"
"Nevertheless, I hope you can understand that studying is not for me, not for the teachers, nor for your parents, but rather..."
The same old spiel that had grown calluses on everyone’s ears was recited once again by the principal.
"I don’t want to say too much else, you all should understand in your hearts, but there are some key points I must emphasize."
Finally, here it came...
Jiang Xiao squinted his eyes, was it time to talk about the rules now?
"Students must always pay attention to their demeanor and expressions in their daily life and studies."
"Starting this afternoon, remember to wear mourning attire in school; excessively obscure or strange outfits are not allowed."
"You must use your own spirit steles to fetch a cup of water during the big break."
"During morning exercises, keep in step with the spirit music; you cannot be absent or fall behind."
"The afternoon ritual of Yan preservation exercise has been included in the checks; remember, you must not open your eyes and maintain the correct posture."
"When the spirit bell rings during class, silence is mandatory; don’t contend with the old corpses during lessons."
"Whether it’s during break or rest time at night, students must ’rest in peace’ together."
Hiss?
All of that sounded quite reasonable, didn’t it?
Anyway, to Jiang Xiao, everything was filled with novelty, and aside from a few odd words, he quite liked this environment.
"This assembly is hereby concluded; each class should return to their classroom in an orderly fashion, and homeroom teachers must also follow their classes to prevent any students from straying."
The Mediterranean-haired man on the stage finished his last sentence and stepped down.
Jiang Xiao watched his figure and the surrounding teachers with a thoughtful look.
He hadn’t read many books.
But his first impression of Wang Qiang and the other students around was pretty good...
If anything was off,
The feeling the principal and teachers gave Jiang Xiao was rather oppressive.
Just uncertain if this was the norm or something out of the ordinary.
"Hey, hey, hey, open it up and see, who wrote it? It must be a love letter, right? A junior high goddess, eh? Jiang bro, you’re really reaping the rewards this time!"
On the way back to class, Wang Qiang and a few classmates close to Jiang Xiao all crowded around.
Regarding romance among peers of the same age,
Wang Qiang and the others generally believed that dating someone from a different grade was more thrilling and came with an air of the unknown.
"Could it be the school beauty Xiao Xue?"
"I heard she’s really rich too! She can’t even spend all her allowance every week!"
"Nonsense, guess what car I saw her getting off this morning? A Maybach! With a Benz like that, of course, she’s loaded."
"Not just rich, but she also became the school beauty in junior high, apparently she’s got someone backing her."
"Young, rich, wanting for nothing, eh."
Jiang Xiao’s face turned dark as a sparrow.
What even is all this?
Leaving aside the fact that he didn’t know who Xiao Xue was.
Stepping back, without even having opened the letter, they were already so sure it was from this Xiao Xue?
Meanwhile, Jiang Xiao felt utterly bizarre inside.
With so many people crowding around him, even openly making fun without any filters...
Honestly, he had never experienced anything like this since he could remember.
Even in the psychiatric hospital, those old men and women didn’t dare to get so up close and personal with him.
It felt... off, but truth be told, Jiang Xiao didn’t exactly dislike it.
"Cough, may heaven witness that this letter of love—ah no, this letter, wasn’t voluntarily opened by me, Jiang Xiao, but under coercion. I’m opening it of my own volition."
The crowd: "?"
"Jiang bro, who are you talking to?"
"You know nothing!"
Who it was for, of course, for a certain screen-peeper.
Sun Wei watched expressionlessly as Jiang Xiao joyously opened the letter supposedly sent by a senior student, her apple already squeezed to pieces in her hand.
Beside her, watching the live event, Mu Xitang and Bai Yi were behaving exceptionally well, keeping perfectly still, even thinking about finding some chores to do to show their worth.
Not just those two, even the dog outside didn’t dare to breathe too loudly.
