"Of course Totoro doesn't have a big beard. Maybe the real Totoro is on this train. But Totoro is mysterious and usually doesn't appear directly in front of people. It needs to be found by someone with a special connection. And maybe if the time is right, Totoro will appear in front of you on its own."
"So Erii, let's hurry up and go upstairs. Maybe Totoro is already waiting for you inside."
Lin Ye couldn't help but tell this white lie.
Of course, he knew that Erii's ability to use the word "Totoro" meant she must have watched Miyazaki Hayao's anime "My Neighbor Totoro." Therefore, she would naturally have a fantasy about this magical creature and imagine that the cat could bring all sorts of wonderful things to her life. So Lin Ye didn't directly point this out, but simply let the girl have a sense of anticipation.
"Oh, I see. Lin Ye, let's go in quickly, quick, quick!"
After Erii quickly finished writing in her notebook, before Lin Ye could react, she grabbed Lin Ye's hand and darted into the carriage.
Under this tremendous pulling and inertia, Lin Ye actually experienced what it meant to be moving at lightning speed, and even his hairstyle became crooked.
"Eri, slow down, don't fall."
"Oh dear, no, Lin Ye, hurry up! Totoro is waiting for us. If we're late, it'll be bad if Totoro leaves."
Erii excitedly led Lin Ye into the carriage.
Lin Ye was both amused and exasperated.
He glanced casually at the brightly lit, dreamlike world behind him and knew that once he entered this carriage, his future would be completely changed.
With the wind blowing and a light drizzle that seemed to have come from nowhere, Lin Ye and Erii rushed into the train carriage, and then the doors closed.
At that moment, the CC1000 train, accompanied by a long whistle, sped off into the distance.
……
The jet-black train, resembling a giant python, sped along the iron-gray tracks.
Inside the carriage, separated by a white oak table, Schneiderfinger and Tomiyama Masafumi sat in turn.
Erii was sitting alone opposite her.
This carriage is filled with a European style, appearing very simple and elegant. The walls of the carriage are decorated with wallpaper with various patterns, and even the portholes are wrapped with high-quality solid wood. The leather sofas are embroidered with gold threads, and there is a row of classic bookshelves on one side of the carriage, filled with books. Each book looks old and heavy, and each cover looks uneven, exuding a sense of antiquity. In short, this carriage reflects a very retro and elegant feeling from the inside out.
Perhaps this is the true elegance of luxury: elegance is never explicitly mentioned, yet it is evident in every aspect.
However, in this retro and elegant carriage, some extremely inelegant sounds were heard, smacking and clattering... The sound was like someone smacking their lips while eating rice and clattering the bowl and spoon together.
Erii was intently attacking the hot chocolate in the cup in front of her. The clinking of the porcelain cup and spoon, along with the smacking sounds, created a symphony of extremely off-key notes.
Across from the girl, of the three, Schneider closed his eyes, seemingly lost in meditation, completely undisturbed by any external commotion. The psychology instructor, Masashi Tomiyama, clearly lacked this composure; his lips twitched involuntarily, for he himself was the one who had caused this situation.
Not long ago, Erii became extremely restless as soon as she boarded the train. The girl looked around and even tried to sneak into the driver's cab to see if there was any Totoro.
At first, Lin Ye didn't explain Erii's behavior to anyone else. Tomiyama Masashi assumed the girl was simply curious about the train's structure, which was why she touched and examined it so closely. However, Tomiyama Masashi quickly realized something was amiss. After all, how could a girl possibly have such a strong interest in something mechanical? For her, the hot chocolate in the carriage was probably more tempting than the train itself.
It wasn't until later that Lin Ye revealed that Erii was looking for a magical creature—Totoro.
Masashi Tomiyama looked at Lin Ye seriously, with an expression that said, "Are you kidding me?"
Lin Ye shrugged with a wry smile, indicating that he was indeed expressing himself seriously.
Good guy.
Masashi Tomiyama was momentarily stunned. He wondered how, if it were truly as they claimed, and both of them possessed exceptionally superior bloodlines, they could possibly believe that Totoro was here. Or perhaps the other person had been poisoned by Miyazaki Hayao, especially by the kind of potent poison that girls deeply affected by such poison would naively fantasize about magical creatures in the world that could save them, and that magical creature was Totoro.
Masashi Tomiyama didn't know if Totoro actually existed, but dragons certainly existed, especially on this high-speed train. How could Totoro possibly appear? Even if there were any monsters, they would be a whole train full of little dragon people. What would that have to do with Totoro, who only knows how to be cute and shout "kawaii"? After all, one is a carnivore, while the other is merely a herbivore.
Although both contain the word "dragon," they are completely different creatures.
Of course, there might be another possibility. Masashi Tomiyama thought about it and felt a chill run down his spine. He looked at Erii with deep eyes and suddenly felt that this girl was definitely not simple.
Perhaps Totoro really exists, but not in the way depicted in anime. Maybe it's a creature infected by dragon blood, possessing immense power. Perhaps it's trying to resolve a crisis. However, something is strange: why is Erii searching for Totoro the moment she enters this place? Or does she believe there's a Totoro on the train transporting the students and teachers of Kassel College?
However, the other party could not continue to grope around in the carriage, since Minister Schneider was still waiting in another carriage.
Then, Masafumi Toyama had a brilliant idea. With a glance, he made Fingel pour a cup of hot chocolate. Under the influence of the hot chocolate, Erii was quickly won over by this delicious dessert.
However, right there in this carriage, Masashi Tomiyama watched with a wry smile as Erii, who was going all out and creating a symphony of sounds, performed.
Well, for him, it seemed like things had calmed down, but it also seemed like they hadn't.
However, Erii is, after all, a girl, and girls generally crave these kinds of sweets, especially since Erii is such a beautiful girl.
There is still some tolerance. Didn't you see that even the ruthless and decisive Minister Schneider didn't say anything? It's obvious that he tacitly approved.
But Fingel next to him was the last straw for Masashi Tomiyama. This guy was, after all, the senior of Kassel College. Although he was usually a bit sloppy and a bit of a good-for-nothing, and his dragon bloodline level kept dropping, at least his seniority was there. He was a seasoned veteran who had repeated a year. Now, this guy was drinking hot chocolate from a cup, giving the impression that he was slurping ramen, and the sounds of his mouth rising and falling were even more exaggerated.
Even Erii, who launched a fierce attack on hot chocolate, only drank three cups, while Fingel has already drunk seven. After all, no matter how fast Erii drinks, she scoops it up with a small spoon, while Fingel is different; he just blows the hot chocolate out of the cup.
Now that the seventh cup was empty, Fingel looked like he hadn't had enough. He smacked his lips and then looked at the hot chocolate machine on the other side, eager to get himself another cup.
A clanging sound.
Like a dagger suddenly appearing and snatching a kidney.
A cold, sharp gaze swept towards Fingel. It was Schneider, who was sitting next to him, who opened his eyes at that moment and coldly swept his gaze towards the other party.
Finger was immediately intimidated by that look and shrank back, very consciously putting the hot chocolate cup back on the table. He even gently covered the cup with the lid to indicate that he had had enough.
Schneider's gaze was undeniably intimidating; Fingel felt that if he drank another glass, his death was imminent. Time ticked by, but the actual proceedings never began, for they were all waiting for the same person.
Lin Ye.
Not long ago, Lin Ye went into the next carriage alone to change into the Kassel College's exclusive school uniform.
Erii also had her own school uniform. However, because she needed to change out of her white dress, Erii didn't understand and immediately shook her head in refusal. She really cared about this taffeta white dress; it was a dress she and Lin Ye had chosen together, and it was also one of Lin Ye's favorite clothes. So, of course, Erii couldn't possibly change it.
Fingel glanced at the carriage from time to time, waiting for Lin Ye's arrival. In fact, he had been wanting to ask if there was a brand new school uniform he could get, since he had been wearing the same one for many years.
Before he could even open his mouth, Masashi Tomiyama immediately stopped him, making it clear that there were no extra school uniforms. As a true-blue Japanese, Tomiyama had an incomprehensible stubbornness. He believed that as long as someone wore the Kassel school uniform, they would represent the prestige of Kassel College in the future. How could anyone allow someone who was always covered in the smell of pork knuckles and other food to wear such a sacred school uniform? That would be an insult to Kassel.
After all, you still need to wash it clean.
Fingel looked aggrieved, but inwardly he couldn't help but complain that Masashi Tomiyama was such a stingy Japanese man.
Not long after, the door to the retro carriage was pushed open again, and the water-like light in the corridor slanted down first, shining on the boy in the Kassel College uniform standing at the door.
The other person was wearing a white shirt over a dark green suit jacket with fine silver trim. The collar was a deep rose red, embroidered with the World Tree pattern, making him look extremely luxurious.
When Lin Ye walked over in this school uniform, he looked like a young nobleman from the Victorian era, extremely dazzling.
There was a snap.
Erii dropped the small spoon from her hand.
The girl stared blankly at Lin Ye, as if she had never seen Lin Ye with this style before.
Masashi Tomiyama murmured unconsciously, "What a handsome young man."
Fingel's expression is worth examining; he's rubbing his chin with a playful look on his face, his eyes full of eagerness.
Fingel sidled up to him, "Junior Lin Ye, you're so handsome. If you really get into the academy, I'll feel a lot of pressure. I might even lose my status as the Kassel heartthrob."
Lin Ye's eye twitched slightly.
“Fingal, didn’t you say you were deeply loved by the students at Kassel College? How could I possibly compare to you?”
"Junior Brother Lin Ye, you are mistaken. With your looks, your temperament, your school uniform, and even your lineage... you are outstanding. In terms of overall strength, you are probably only slightly inferior to me."
Fingel had a look of relief on his face, as if he had narrowly won.
Masashi Tomiyama, who was standing to the side, couldn't sit still any longer. He said with a teasing look, "Fingal, I seem to have heard that your bloodline level has dropped again this year. If I'm not mistaken, your current level should be E-rank, right?"
"I didn't expect that Instructor Masafumi Tomiyama would see through me. Actually, it was all thanks to the brothers in the academy who were so kind to me. But I have recently started to strive for D-rank. I feel that I have the need and responsibility to keep lowering the lowest bloodline level of the academy's history students."
Fingel truly lived up to his reputation for having a thick skin; even in this situation, he was able to remain calm and composed without even blushing.
Masashi Tomiyama's lips twitched; for a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
“Fingal, since you’re so ambitious, I’m really looking forward to you going to the Execution Department to take on a mission. I’ll let Guderian know when that happens.”
"No, my dear Professor Schneider, I just had too much hot chocolate and got a little tipsy. I was rambling on and on. Please don't take offense," Fingel said, his expression immediately changing as he quickly explained.
However, Schneider ignored the other party and went to Lin Ye instead.
Does this school uniform fit?
"not bad."
Lin Ye stretched out his arms.
The size of the clothes was indeed suitable. It was possible that Yuan Zhisheng had submitted his height, weight, and even some basic information to Kassel College beforehand, because Lin Ye also saw his name on the cuff of the school uniform, which was embroidered in dark green.
"As long as it fits, it's fine. This school uniform is a new model developed by Kassel College. It's filled with bulletproof fabric, and there are also high-proof fibers embedded in the interlayer. Even if you encounter an explosive grenade, it can't be penetrated directly."
Masashi Tomiyama proudly introduces the attributes of the school uniform.
"Good."
Lin Ye nodded inwardly, thinking to himself that as expected of Kassel College, being able to turn school uniforms into bomb-proof suits was truly unique.
Seeing Lin Ye simply nod calmly upon hearing that the school uniform could protect against bullets and grenades, Masashi Tomiyama couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy. After all, some students would inevitably associate the idea of a uniform being bulletproof and grenade-proof with very unpleasant thoughts.
For example, why would school uniforms need to be bulletproof and explosion-proof if they are worn on campus? Or is it because the campus is like a battlefield where one's life is in danger at any time?
Regardless of the method, the trainees would show some discomfort on their faces, but Lin Ye's face showed absolutely none of it.
Because Lin Ye knew from the beginning that Kassel College was a monster concentration camp.
Sensing something, Lin Ye suddenly turned his head and saw Erii staring at him intently.
The girl was also holding a school uniform in her arms, eager to try it on.

"If I may ask, are direct confrontations common at Kassel College? What measures should be taken if necessary? What if things go wrong...?"
Lin Ye suddenly asked this question.
In fact, when he said this, it was not because he had let his guard down, but because his strength was backing him up. After all, with his current combat power, if he faced those elite teachers and students at Kassel College, they would have very few chances against Lin Ye if they did not use their incantations.
Lin Ye's physique has been terrifyingly enhanced by the ancient high-risk dragon-type species, coupled with the Flying Sword Style from Kenshin. If a sudden battle were to break out face-to-face, Lin Ye would be able to catch his opponent completely off guard.
Riri is not acceptable.
