Tokyo, Adachi District, Senju Town.
[Speaking of which, do you guys know about that super villain in Osaka recently?]
[The one who has been giving money to the poor and welfare organizations?
Someone took a photo of a strange fly wearing a perverted costume.]
[What the hell is a strange fly? That's obviously a Kamen Knight!]
[It's probably someone who has nowhere to spend his money and wants to imitate Hero Robber Lu Bang. There really are such people in real life.]
Mai Sada glanced at her phone and put it back into her pocket. Recently, an urban legend about Osaka had been circulating on the internet. It was said that a person wearing a special costume ran around the corners of Osaka and often gave money to the poor or needy families. There were also people who saw this "special costume" teaching a lesson to some hooligans.
He looked like a citizen hero who maintained the city's order.
However, there were no related reports on the news. The videos and photos taken by the netizens were also very much in line with the atmosphere of the urban legend — blurry and low resolution.
This urban legend of Kamen Knight was originally only spread in Osaka, but with the advantage of the internet, it spread to the entire country in a few days. However, it was another story as to how many people believed it.
"As expected of Mayo-chan."
Miyuki Kahara and Mai Sada stood side by side on the train, both of them heading towards Run De Girls' School.
"Hmm?"
Mai Sada tilted her head and looked down at the petite Miyuki Kahara in confusion. Why did Miyuki Kahara speak without rhyme or reason again?
Compared to her height of more than 1.65 meters, Miyuki Kahara, who was perhaps only a little over 1.55 meters, could indeed be considered petite.
The train passed the Senju Bridge over the Arakawa. Outside the window was the calm Arakawa.
"The entrance exam is coming soon. Aren't you nervous at all?"
"Of course not. I'm very nervous."
Mai Sada held onto the handrail and stood still. There was not a trace of panic on her calm face. "There's no use in being nervous. Why don't we take this opportunity to relax?"
The Unified Secondary School Exam had ended. Unsurprisingly, both of them had achieved excellent results. The difficulty of the Unified School Exam was really low. Anyway, no matter how bad one was, one would be able to study in a high school. The Board of Education simply lowered the difficulty of the Unified School Exam every year.
What shocked Miyuki Kahara was that her best friend, who had only average grades two months ago, had actually scored better than her in the final exams. Not just by a little, but by a lot!
Was this the difference in intelligence?
Although he didn't want to admit it, he really couldn't accept it!
"Ah, I also want to become as smart as you."
Miyuki Kahara purposely twisted her pretty face into a jealous expression, but even so, she still looked very cute. "I barely managed to get into the normal school, but you're so smart, Miyuki-chan. You'll definitely become a special student."
They had come to Senju to take the entrance exam for Run De Girls' High School. As one of the few private high schools in the Adachi district, and also the only girls' private high school, there were many students who wanted to enter Run De Girls' High School. As long as their grades were passable and their families had some money, they would send their daughters to Run De Girls' High School.
At least, when Miyuki Kahara finished speaking, a few girls on the train looked at them with slight rejection in their eyes. Everyone wanted to enter Run De Girls' High School, and Run De Girls' High School only accepted a few students a year. Everyone was in a competitive relationship, so it would be strange if they were nice to each other.
[We have arrived at the North Senju station. Passengers, please …]
"Let's go."
Mai Sada ignored the girls' glances and took Miyuki Kahara's hand and walked out.
Both Hanagi and Senju belonged to the Adachi district, but the difference between the two was like heaven and earth. Only when they arrived at Senju would they feel that the Adachi district really belonged to Tokyo. Toba Line, Chiyoda Line, Hibiya Line, Banatamon Line, and other traffic arteries passed through Senju. From Senju, they could reach Tokyo or the surrounding counties within half an hour. Hanagi, on the other hand, was basically a large town with not much open space and not much modern atmosphere.
Moreover, from Hanagi to Senju, it was the two extremes of the Adachi district. Hanagi was next to Saitama district, while Senju was in the southernmost part, across the river from Arakawa district.
After walking for more than ten minutes, the two walked together to the front of Run De Girls' High School.
"There are so many people." Miyuki Kahara's morale was even lower.
Cars were parked in front of Run De Girls' High School, and girls were getting out of the cars and walking into the school. The parents who came to help with the exam looked more anxious than the children. There were a few tables at the school gate, and the volunteer female students and teachers were directing the flow of people.
Seeing the two walking side by side, the volunteer female high school student asked in a friendly manner, "Are you taking the comprehensive entrance exam?"
"Yes." Mai Sada nodded solemnly.
For a private high school like this, in addition to passing the comprehensive entrance exam, one could also enter through recommendation letters, art, music, and sports specialties. However, these things that cost money were too far away for Mai Sada and Miyuki Kahara. Mai Sada's family was in decline, and Miyuki Kahara had no specialties since childhood, and her family could not produce a recommendation letter.
"The comprehensive entrance exam will be held in that building. Well, the building with the most people gathered in front of the door."
The volunteer female student pointed at the teaching building that had been set up as a temporary examination room. "The first floor to the third floor is your examination room."
A group of female students had gathered in front of the teaching building that the female student pointed at. There were at least one or two thousand of them.
If it was just Adachi District, it would not be able to gather so many people to take the exam. However, Run De Girls' High School recruited students from all of Tokyo and Kanagawa, and the number of people covered had suddenly expanded to tens of millions. Families with a little bit of money wanted their children to study in a private high school, especially the people of the Island nation, who were particularly fond of girls' schools or boys' schools. They felt that it was more conducive to shaping their children's character. Therefore, Run De Girls' High School was relatively popular among the group of private high schools.
"Come on!"
Their examination rooms were not in the same classroom. Before they parted, Miyuki Kahara clenched her small fist and waved it at Mai Sada to encourage her. However, she looked more like she was cheering herself on.
The atmosphere in the examination room was very quiet. Since the people sitting in the classroom were all unfamiliar with each other, there was no chatter. No matter how much they chatted now, they might not be able to stay after the results were out.
After a silence of more than ten minutes, a teacher finally came in with the test papers.
The female teacher, who was wearing glasses and an intellectual outfit, was very young. Different from the teachers in public high schools, this female teacher looked very aggressive and aggressive.
This made some of the girls in the examination hall who wanted to cheat secretly complain. This teacher looked so strict.
"The subject of this exam is Mandarin."
In one day, Runde Girls' School had been tested on three subjects: Mandarin, English, and Mathematics. Compared with the test papers of the unified examination, the difficulty index of Runde Girls' School's test papers skyrocketed. Even though Sada Masayo thought she was good, she couldn't help biting her pen when she got to the last few questions.
After all the exams were done, the school was filled with a gloomy and gloomy feeling.
"It's over, it's over, I definitely can't pass. What should I do?"
Goehara Miki's face was in tears. She was as hopeless as she could be.
"Save me, Dora Shinichi."
In a few days, the exam papers would be marked and the results would be released. Private high schools like this one would add points according to the examinees' junior high school level. However, this was for ordinary students who were in the Comprehensive Advanced School. Top students with heaven-defying academic abilities could do whatever they wanted. Moreover, there was a special scholarship system for the top students. The tuition fees for the top students were completely free, and they would also be given scholarships every school year, the kind that did not have to be returned.
Mai Sada rubbed her temples tiredly. Her heart was also somewhat extinguished.
