Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Municipal No.1 Middle School was the best middle school in the municipal of Anyang and was split into junior high and senior high.
To the residents in Anyang, being able to attend Municipal No.1 Middle School’s senior high was equal to having one foot in the key undergraduate courses. On top of that, there had been six candidates that were admitted to top universities, raising the school’s reputation.
It was because Municipal No.1 Middle School’s enrollment process this year was so strict that it was almost to the point of being harsh.
Adhering to the principle of “quality over quantity”, many students from the Municipal No.1 Middle School were not admitted to senior high, and those who managed to get in had to take another test. The test results were then used to determine their classes.
Ye Jian had been in the Tibetan area and did not know that there was a huge matter that blew up recently at the Municipal No.1 Middle School.
On the first day of school, those parents whose children were not admitted to senior high were standing and blocking the entrance of the school. They pulled up red banners to protest against the “unfairness” of the enrollment.
“There is no reason nor law! Our children were in junior high, but they are rejected for high school!”
“Protest! Protest! Protest against the school’s inhumane enrollment!”
“Determining their classes based on grades, that’s detrimental to the students, we protest as parents!”
There were not only parents. There were a few troublemakers that participated too, an egg was thrown at the “Municipal No.1 Middle School” school sign and chaos ensued.
As long as they had something in their hands, they were all thrown towards the school as a sign of resistance against the “unfair” treatment.
Ye Jian and the boy had not reached the gate. They were supposed to alight at the “Municipal No.1 Middle School” bus stop but they were stopped by the police. An officer dressed in a dark-green 95s-style uniform came over, scanned Ye Jian and questioned, “Student, your parents did not send you to school?”
The boy from the same village had never dealt with the police before, but having grown up in a village with troops, he had some courage.
He took the initiative to stand in front of Ye Jian. He was a little scared but he remained calm. “No, both of us came here ourselves without our parents.”
“We are students from the town, there are no adults to send us.” Looking at the situation, Ye Jian patted the boy’s stiff shoulders and smiled. “Did something happen to the school?”
She pointed outside of the bus. “These students are all standing outside and not entering the school, the school’s probably in trouble.”
What could possibly happen to the school? She had the impression that in 1996, nothing big happened besides the return of Harbour City. However, the internet network in 1996 was still underdeveloped, if anything big happened, it was normal for her to not know about it.
Usually, the ones that asked the same question were parents. Having heard that from a student, the police smiled. “You’re smart, no wonder you are admitted to this school, you…”
While speaking, the police made eye contact with Ye Jian… Why does she look so familiar? Have I seen her before? A criminal? Definitely not!
But she was familiar as if I had seen her before.
“Come student, alight with your friend, remember to take your luggage.” She looked familiar but he could not make sense of the name. Being a police officer, he could not just let them go like that. He was telling them both to get off the bus together with him.
