146 Trouble with the School Rules (1/2)
The next day, Kanae came directly to the school's infirmary. ”Doctor, can I sleep here too, today?”
She was tired after spending nearly all day to walk and run on Black Street. They also met with a few friends and exchanged a few greetings, so she was dead tired. Even after sleeping for a long time, it still didn't feel enough.
”Are you sure?” the doctor looked towards Kanae amusedly. ”You're going to get trouble if you sleep too much.”
”I know,” Kanae sighed.
On the bed, Tommy rolled his body to face the two people inside the room. ”You can just sleep. No one will allow you not to do that.”
Aside from feeling sleepy, Tommy was also got wounds all over his body. He was trying to be a little cocky yesterday and handled most of the opponents. In the end, he could not handle them well and got beaten up in the process. It was Kanae and Jason who had to stand up and clean up the mess.
Still, his body was ridden with wounds, and he didn't have the slightest intention to get up from the comfortable bed.
”I'll still kick you out if you speak more nonsense,” the doctor shook his head.
Tommy sighed and lied on the bed. He was about to fall asleep when the door opened and Charlie walked in. He looked towards the two students in front of him with a dark expression.
”Kanae Nali, you're indeed an excellent student, but it doesn't mean that you can skip class as you wish. This is school and you have to attend the class every day without fail!”
Hearing that, Kanae was stunned. Who in the world was this teacher? She enrolled in this school because this was the one who gave the most leniencies towards the students. Why did he suddenly say something like that to her?
Charlie hadn't finished yet. ”Tommy Malady, you're a poor student with grade below average. Yet, you nearly skip all class and spend most of your time in the infirmary. Do you come here to study or to play around?”
Tommy opened his eyes lazily. He had encountered a teacher like this too often to count. He did not like school, but still attend because he wanted to have a normal job in the future. Of course, it didn't mean he was going to follow all the rules like an obedient child.
”Teacher, do you think this is Nolen School A?”
Charlie was startled by Tommy sudden answer. He frowned in displeasure as he didn't like students who talked back to him.
”No matter which schools this is, every student has to follow the rules. No one can be given an exception.”
Kanae was even more speechless when she heard what this man said. Even if he wanted them to follow the rules blindly, it was impossible in this city. There were too many people who have difficult circumstances enrolled in this school because of its lenient rules. Asking them to follow the rules strictly was simply impossible.
”You should read the rules carefully, Teacher,” Kanae interrupted. ”This school gives its students more leniency because of our background.”
Charlie scoffed. ”Background? Do you think I don't know that many of you are only trying to find an excuse to make sure that you don't have to follow the class?”
Tommy sat down with annoyed expression. He wanted to have a good sleep, but this teacher had to ruin it.
”Then you should just ask the teacher about the background of the students.”
”Searching amidst hundreds of data, do you think teachers have to give you the leniency just because you're special?”
”I come here because I get a sport scholarship. As long as my score is above the passing grade, it doesn't matter if I attend the class or not,” Tommy answered with a glare.
Charlie scoffed. ”That just shows that you're a lazy student. You come here because you want to learn and not to sleep. Don't make me ask the teacher to take back your scholarship because of your lazy attitude.”
”You're too meddlesome teacher,” Tommy yawned.
”I have to. Without a good teacher who cares for the student, there's no way a student can graduate well.”
Kanae stood up and walked to the door. Charlie was stunned to see her standing up so suddenly. ”I have not finished talking.”
