A place that appears to be very clean?

Xiangzi was puzzled.

“…Is there such a place?”

"Of course."

Cai said with a smile.

"So, it's [school]?"

School……!?

Not only Xiangzi, but all five people on Ave Mujica were stunned.

Chapter 122 Self-study Examination for Minors

Going to school?

Even Xiangzi had never considered this suggestion.

Indeed, a LAN account can be a student account...

But, how to implement it specifically?

This is not like a company or a factory where they just say you're a new employee and that's it.

Maruyama Aya said, "You guys decide where to go," and left the room.

She seemed to be able to fit in anywhere.

The decision seems to be handed over to the five people of Ave Mujica...

But if the school wants to accept transfer students, there must be admission requirements, right?

If you don’t meet the entry requirements, even if you manage to get in, you will be easily exposed!

The five people looked at each other.

“Actually, I have a student status.”

Chu Hua said suddenly.

"Eh!?"

Miao Meng was even more surprised than waking up to find herself lying on a hospital bed.

"You have a student status?"

This was also the first time Xiangzi heard of it.

"The City of Music has regulations that minors who engage in artist activities must be students in school." Chu Hua said, "It is a way to prevent the abuse of child labor..."

“…It’s useless though.”

"Small agencies don't care at all, or they only sign verbal contracts with minors."

"Some larger agencies, such as Honeycomb, which signed me, will use the artist's account to register the student status at the school."

"Although no one ever goes to class." Chu Hua added.

"Which school are you attending?" Hai Ling asked.

"BCPD Hanasakigawa Preparatory Police Academy." Chuhua said.

"..."

Hai Ling looked at Chu Hua carefully a few more times.

“It’s very difficult to pass the exam there,” she said.

"Most artists would not choose to be affiliated with the police academy...but at the time I thought it was a good choice, so I chose it." Facing Hai Ling's gaze, Chu Hua smiled helplessly, shrank back and said.

"Because I was running an underground mercenary operation at the time."

"At that time, Mana and I were both in training. I had no choice but to make money."

"But this road is inherently dangerous, and many unforeseen accidents may occur."

“I’m still quite scared.”

"If something unexpected happens to me during the mission and the matter gets out of hand, it will affect Sumimi's career plan."

"So I thought if I passed the police academy, I would have more options to get away with it if something happened."

"Honeycomb spent money to buy you into Hanasakigawa?"

Hai Ling frowned slightly.

"There are many schools that can be bought in the City of Joy. However, I don't remember Hanasakigawa being a place that can be bought..."

"Do not."

Chu Hua said.

“I got in by myself.”

"..."

Hai Ling was stunned for a moment.

"After looking at my [Physique] and [Reaction] points, Hanasakigawa agreed to let me only take the practical exam."

Hai Ling understood now.

"Hanasakigawa is a police academy, and they don't care much about whether the students are freshmen when recruiting. And you definitely exceed the standard for freshmen." Hailing said, "You are an excellent student."

No school doesn't like excellent students.

After all, excellent students with good transcripts mean more funding.

Even if there are some minor problems, they will turn a blind eye.

"I always thought that Muzi was a good student here, and he followed the four of us to hang out in gangs!" Miao Meng shouted, interrupting the conversation, "So, Chuzi, you are also a student?"

"Haha, although I don't think I count..." Chu Hua scratched his cheek.

"Ew! Stop, stop, stop, stop! What I hate most in my life is self-deprecation! Why, I'd rather be thrown into a river in the middle of winter!"

Meow Dream cried:

"Okay, who's the next good student?"

"Haizi, Boss, don't tell me you are also good students!"

Miao Meng glared at Hailing and Xiangzi.

Hai Ling, who was a top student in school, folded her arms and looked out the window.

Xiangzi didn't know how to answer this question, so she looked to the other side.

"--Varied--"

Miao Meng felt seriously betrayed.

"..."

Mu approaches her worriedly.

However, Meow Meng pretended to cry and said, "I don't want to be comforted by the eldest lady of Tsuki no Mori right now," which made Mu a little overwhelmed.

"Hai Ling, where are you going?"

In order to prevent Miao Meng from continuing to expand the topic, Xiangzi asked Hailing first.

"I'll go back to Hanasakigawa too."

Hai Ling said.

“I used to have a student record there.”

"Even though I dropped out, it should be easier to get my student status back than to get a new one."

"Since Hanasakigawa is a police academy, there are frequent student transfers."

"In addition to injuries, separations and other reasons, it is common for students to transfer to other classes, suspend their studies, repeat a grade or return to school."

"Dropping out of school due to voluntary reasons is not very common..."

"…But I think, as long as I don't say it, no one will know."

Hailing said:

"I've seen some students transferred from schools in other cities whose files were in a mess."

"Personally, I think that as long as you have a record of passing the exam, it's easy to take advantage of the loophole."

Hai Ling openly said that "it's easy to find loopholes" in her alma mater, which made Miao Meng, who had just raised her head, gasp.

"Well."

Hai Ling's destination has also been decided.

Xiangzi looked at Mu.

"As for Mu...I'm already in school."

Mu nodded.

Mu attends the Tsukinomori Girls' Academy.
