Dubian Che entered Class 1-4, hung his backpack by the desk, and sat down.
The classroom was noisier than usual.
"Mr. Dubian~, good morning~" a girl came over to greet him.
"Good morning."
"Hey, Mr. Dubian, did you have a good New Year?" another girl asked.
"I had a great time back home."
The girls giggled or laughed heartily, making the classroom even livelier.
As Saito Keisuke and Kunii Shuichi arrived, the girls reluctantly dispersed.
"What's up with you two?" Dubian Che asked.
"What do you mean 'what's up'?" Saito Keisuke pulled out his winter holiday homework from his bag and asked, puzzled.
Dubian Che pointed at the area around his eyes.
Kunii Shuichi took a small mirror out from his bag, vainly brushed back his buzz cut, and then inspected his eye circles.
"It's just some dark circles, and it doesn't affect Mr. Kunii's handsomeness at all." He brushed back his hair again.
