“My class does not welcome you, please leave immediately.” Inuo Kento loudly exclaimed.

Looking at him with one eye, Lei Yin suddenly smiled: “You afraid I’ll continue to say it?”

“Why should I be afraid of you?” Inuo Kento angrily said.

Glancing around at the other college student who were staring at him in surprise, Lei Yin with pity and cold gaze looked at them and said: “All of you here, are a group of both pitiful and sad people. Because you are now, by the Japanese Government as well as him, being given an unconscionable teaching, blindfolding your eyes and covering your ears. Do you really believe that, in those years, the Japanese soldiers invaded various Asian countries in order to promote the so-called Yamato spirit? I can plainly tell you, it was a blatant, full of blood aggression.”

“You shut up and get out of here.” Inuo Kento’s eyelids jumped up.

Lei Yin ignored him and continued in a clear and resounding voice, “You do not understand the real history, you are all blind and deaf, so you guys are pathetic. One day, when you travel to Asian countries, you don’t even know why some people would point at your back scolding you a Japanese devil, so you guys are pitiful. After a few years, when you have kids, another so-called mentor like him will teach this distorted history to your children as you are now. And then your children will also teach their children. As you harm the people in other countries, you also slowly destroy your own. Therefore, you are equally hateful.

Why would the similarly aggressive country in World War II, the Nazi Germany, hasn’t encountered the same diatribe from other nations as they do to Japan? That’s because they bravely admit and bear the mistake that they once made. In contrast, those self-righteous Japanese lawmakers, in addition to altering textbooks, stubbornly refusing to acknowledge the history for what? History is history, they will not lose their original meaning because of the distortion of some people.

I know it was useless to say anything, because you’re blind and deaf for far too long. Go online and look to see how much dirty deeds those war heroes, that your Prime Minister visits every year in Yasukuni Shrine, have done.”

“Immediately get out of here. You adulterous traitorous bastard!” Inuo Kento vigorously banged the table, his face was livid.

As if hearing the funniest joke, Lei Yin smiled again.

“If you think you are right, then do you have the guts to come with me to Nanjing, China or South Korean Axe mountain to teach your class there? Rest assured, I’ll help you with the plane ticket, plus I will also help you arrange the lecture venues. I believe after that lecture, within one-day, you will become a world class celebrity. I just do not know if you’ll still have your life back to Japan.” Lei Yin’s tone of voice was thick with sarcasm.

“I told you to scram!” Inuo Kento’s face was flushed with anger as if having a cerebral hemorrhage.

Lei Yin slowly walked to the aisle, looked at him and dismissively said: “Unlike you, I am a person, and will only walk out, not scram.” After he said that, he walked toward the entrance.

The whole classroom was deathly silent, the only audible sound was the sound of Lei Yin’s footsteps.

When he opened the door, Lei Yin suddenly looked back to Inuo Kento and said: “There’s something I forgot to tell you, your wig is crooked.”

Inuo Kento unconsciously held his head.

Seeing his funny appearance, a girl could not help but “pfft” out a laugh.

Inuo Kento knew he was tricked by Lei Yin, under the rage influence, he threw the textbook in his hand at him.

Because the distance was too far, the textbook only flew a third of the distance and then fell to the ground.

Lei Yin sneered and walked out.

All the student’s expression were complex watching his back as he left, the whole classroom was silent.

Opening the rooftop door, Takeda really saw Lei Yin quietly standing in front of the barbed wire.

Looking at that slim and aloof figure, Takeda, for a moment, was suddenly overtaken by the feeling of inability to understand this man.

“Hey, it’s time for lunch, how long are you going to act cool?” Takeda went up to him and said out loud.

Looking back at him for a moment, Lei Yin dismissively said: “You seem to have something you want to ask me.”

Takeda leaned on the barbed wire next to him, “I don’t understand why you must speak those words. If it’s someone else’s words, I would think that in order to attract the girl’s attention, he deliberately said something unconventional, but I know you are not that kind of person. Besides, no one will say such things to attract the attentions of others. If it’s all right, I want you to give me an explanation.”

Lei Yin smiled back to his eyes, “If I tell you that, in my previous life I was a Chinese, would you believe that?”

Takeda fixed his gaze at him for a moment and then a bit unluckily said: “Come on, if you don’t want to say, why say such a lie to me.”

Lei Yin thought for a moment and said: “The reason is not that big of a deal, my grandfather is Chinese, so I have one-fourth of Chinese descent. When I saw that guy spewing out nonsense in the classroom, I can’t help but flare up.”

“This explanation make sense. Very well, let’s go find something to eat.” Takeda a bit understandingly patted his shoulder.

Lei Yin smiled, ‘sometimes it seems that the truth makes people unable to believe than a lie.’

Down the stairs, Takeda suddenly said: “By the way, just after the class, I heard a few guys were talking about you, evidently they don’t have anything good, you better be careful.”

When they walked to the restaurant, Jiro Yoshikawa, and Akira Shiraishi were already there waiting for them.

“Why are you guys so slow? We are famished.” Seeing them, Yoshikawa immediately complained.

“It’s just waiting for a few minutes, what are you squawking about.” Takeda readily pulled a chair to sit down.

“Masashi, why hasn’t your sister came to eat meals together these past few days?” Takeda asked.
