Chapter 150: Chapter 150 Visit to First High School
Bought a suitcase and packed all the clothes and bedding into it, and soon it was noon.
So the three of them pulled their suitcases and went out to have lunch.
After eating their fill, they headed straight to Qi City No.1 High School.
Since it’s a high school, the holidays start later than at Siying School. At this time, in the middle of the day, the area inside and outside the First High School was crowded with people; it was packed.
Groups of high school students who had just finished lunch were streaming into the school, and various small shops not far from the school gate were bustling with people.
The Zhen Family three stood at a corner of the school gate observing everything. Zhen Yan felt he barely had enough eyes to take it all in.
Zhen Yu instructed her mother and brother to stay put, and then headed toward the security office.
"Hello, sir!" Zhen Yu greeted the doorkeeper very politely.
"Hey! You are not a student here, are you? Are you looking for someone?" The doorkeeper was quite enthusiastic.
"Not looking for anyone, it’s my brother who got admitted to the First High School." Zhen Yu said pitifully with a smile, "We live in a small town below, and it’s rare for us to come to Qi City. I wanted to visit the school because I won’t be able to come when school starts!"
"Well, this...," the doorkeeper hesitated.
"Sir! Look, our No.1 High School is so good, I also want to try to get in like my brother!" While praising, Zhen Yu pleaded, "Could you let us go in for a round? We promise to be very quiet!"
"Uh..." the doorkeeper was still somewhat reluctant.
Seeing this, Zhen Yu suddenly had a brilliant idea, "Sir, how about you join us for the tour later?"
"Ah?" The doorkeeper was taken aback, then suddenly said, "That works! Once the students have all gone into class, I’ll lock the main gate and take you around the playground and outside the building."
"Thank you, sir!" Zhen Yu grinned sincerely.
"You’re welcome. It’s great to see such ambition in a young girl like you, and having your brother as a role model, you must study hard!"
"Yes! I’ll come back and find you later."
"Alright!"
After briefly speaking with the doorkeeper, Zhen Yu returned to her mother.
Both her mother and brother were looking at her full of hope. Zhen Yu smiled and said, "It’s all set. We can go in once the students have started their classes."
"Yay! Little sis taking action, like hitting two birds with one stone!" Zhen Yan’s timely praise.
"Learn from your sister! When you’re on your own outside, you need to be sweeter!" Mrs. Zhen immediately took the opportunity to teach her son.
"I got it, Mom!"
---
About ten minutes later, the streets outside First High School started to clear.
As the electric gates of First High School slowly closed, Zhen Yu led her mother and brother to the school’s reception area.
"Come in here!" The doorkeeper pointed to a small side door and waved to Zhen Yu.
Once the three of them entered, Zhen Yu informed the doorkeeper and left the suitcase in the security office. The doorkeeper locked the small door and then led them into the school.
"This must be your brother, huh? This young man is quite exceptional! Students who can get into First High School are all top students!"
"Hehe..." Zhen Yan scratched his head modestly.
Mrs. Zhen said half modestly and half honestly, "Ah! He just did well this time! He still needs to work hard! Can’t just come here to be at the bottom!"
"Don’t say that! With our scores from First High School, even if we’re at the bottom here, we’ll definitely be college students in the future! That alone is better than being first at Second Middle School!"
"Of course!" Zhen Yu understood Grandpa Wang’s sense of belonging and pride towards First High School, and quickly agreed, "This is a key school! Everyone knows that First High School is the best high school in the city!"
Although students from towns below Qi City have to attend Qi City Second Middle School if they don’t get into a key high school, Qi City itself has more than just these two high schools.
Including Second Middle School, there are four high schools in Qi City, but First High School is the only key school.
"Haha... The little girl is right!" Grandpa Wang laughed happily and pointed to the building right across from the entrance, "This is the academic building."
"What’s your honorable last name, Grandpa?" Zhen Yu asked proactively, and introduced her family first, "My brother is called Zhen Yan, I’m Zhen Yu, and my mom’s last name is Cheng."
"Oh! The surname Zhen is rare! What great names! My last name is Wang, as common as it gets!" Grandpa Wang said with a laugh.
He then pointed to two buildings close to each other, "Those two facing each other are the dorm buildings, one for boys and one for girls."
After saying this, Grandpa Wang headed straight there, "Since students are in class right now, let me take you for a tour inside the dorm buildings."
"Isn’t today Saturday?" Zhen Yu was puzzled.
"Key high schools don’t care about Saturdays! It’s good enough that they give Sundays off!"
"Oh." Zhen Yu responded blankly.
Zhen Yan was also a bit stunned, but was suddenly nudged by his mother. Under his mother’s gaze, he quickly thanked, "Thank you, Grandpa Wang."
"You’re welcome, let’s go!"
—
Grandpa Wang greeted an old man at the male dormitory’s reception and then led the three of them inside.
From the outside, both the male and female dorm buildings are six floors.
Grandpa Wang only took them around the first and second floors, "The male dorm and female dorm are identical, each floor is the same, just seeing two floors is enough to get the idea!"
"Absolutely! You’re completely right, Sir." Zhen Yan nodded in agreement.
The stairs are in the middle, dividing a long corridor into two, with doors lining both sides.
At the end of each corridor, there are washrooms and toilets, and further ahead is a semicircular balcony used for drying clothes and shoes.
Counting the doors, Zhen Yu noticed there were four doors facing another four, making eight rooms on one side, so a total of sixteen rooms on one floor.
After thinking for a moment, Zhen Yu asked, "Grandpa Wang, how many classes are there per grade at First High School? How many students per class?"
"Haha! You’ve asked the right person! Each grade, ten classes. Fifty students per class, exactly, perfectly set!"
"That’s fifteen hundred students in the whole school! So many!" Mrs. Zhen exclaimed in surprise.
Then she asked with concern, "Brother Wang! How many students live in one dorm room?"
"Eight! All bunk beds." Grandpa Wang explained clearly, "On each side of the room, there are two bunk beds, and at the door side, there is a horizontally placed locker, one door per person, remember to bring a lock."
"Oh! Thank you for the reminder, Sir," Zhen Yan thanked without needing a prompt from his mother this time.
"Haha! The child is quite polite." Grandpa Wang felt happy with the response.
After touring the dorm buildings, Grandpa Wang pointed out a few other buildings, including the cafeteria and the auditorium, and then led the three to the sports field.
There were students having a PE class, so they didn’t go close but observed from a distance and followed Grandpa Wang back towards the school gate.
