Chapter 1361 School starts
Chris' holiday was only two days, and Bai Chen personally sent Chris into the car driven by the bodyguard.
"Chris, thank you."
"I don't want to hear you say thank you to me." Chris rolled down the car window and looked at Bai Chen with a smile: "As long as I call you next time, don't make excuses to say you are not available."
Bai Chen smiled: "Okay."
After all, Chris is still an artist, so her work schedule is very tight.
If Bai Chen hadn't asked her for help this time, she wouldn't have two days off for the whole year.
Because of this, Bai Chen was very grateful to Chris for traveling thousands of miles to help him comfort Yi Cui.
However, the summer vacation is about to pass, and school will start in less than a few days.
Merck almost always responded to all requests from Bai Chen, but Merck rejected Bai Chen's request without hesitation when he skipped school.
The Education Bureau does not care whether Bai Chen really knows astronomy and geography. As Bai Chen’s current supervisor, Merck must not indulge Bai Chen to skip school.
This is not a joke, and in the end Bai Chen had to compromise.
For the United States, Chinese are very common, so Bai Chen's admission is nothing special.
And the admission procedures have been completed long ago, so everything went smoothly.
Bai Chen is admitted to the first grade. If he is in China, Bai Chen's age is already considered older.
However, it is normal in the United States. Most students are older. For example, Fleck, who is nearly seven years old.
Bai Chen and Fleck were divided into the same class, and the first class after admission. The students they knew each other were fighting and making noise.
For these children, it seems like they have endless energy.
As the class bell rang, there was still a lot of noise in the classroom.
However, as the classroom door was pushed open, a female teacher walked in with a cold face, and more than 20 children became quiet in an instant.
The female teacher looks not old, probably twenty-two or twenty-three years old. She feels a sense of oppression that no one can enter. The female teacher said in a mechanical tone: "Hello. I am your teacher Elad Caroline. I will be responsible for your growth and learning for a long time in the future. Now, please tell me your names one by one."
Lisa...
Andrew...
Lopez...
When Bai Chen stood up and answered his name, the whole class looked at Bai Chen, including Caroline.
Soon, the bell rang for the end of get out of class: "This is the first class I have taught you, so I will give you my first lesson. Before returning to this classroom tomorrow, I hope you can bring an animal. Any animal can be an insect or a wildlife, of course. If you are willing to bring your pets, in addition to that, I ask you to find out their gender and the number of animals you bring in our town."
Bai Chen looked at the teacher in a bit incredible. Is this homework too weird?
In fact, Bai Chen is a big fuss, such seemingly weird homework. In fact, it is everywhere in American schools.
From elementary school to university, each school has an independent curriculum. No school’s textbook will be the same.
Many times, teachers ask students to read some special books.
It is completely different from China's educational model of reading the text, American primary and secondary schools are more about giving students independent thinking and exploration enlightenment.
Therefore, Chinese education is to study hard before college, lose the sense of oppression and begin to slack off after college, while the United States plays hard before college, and only after college, they will study hard after college.
After school, Bai Chen and Fleck went home together, and the first day of elementary school life ended in dullness.
Of course, Bai Chen still spent some time on the homework. Bai Chen caught a mouse, a male, and based on the situation in Adamk Town, he wrote a paper about rats in Adamk Town.
Bai Chen's homework was not outstanding. A classmate in the same class brought a glass box filled with more than a dozen frogs.
It is said that all the frogs in this box are male, and according to his investigation and calculation, there are about 100,000 frogs in the entire Adamke town.
Of course, many students have failed to complete their homework.
However, Caroline did not punish any student. Bai Chen always felt that Caroline was a little obedient and could not be said to be strange, but she just felt that she didn't know a teacher. She didn't have the kindness or majesty of the teacher, but she felt a little bit like she was dealing with the situation.
In the following days, Bai Chen lived a very comfortable life because Bai Chen hadn't been so calm for a long time.
The occasional ripples are just homework assigned by Caroline.
"Okay, that's all for today's class. You must earn ten dollars for the homework today and the next few days. At the same time, I ask that the money you get cannot be obtained through illegal means, nor can you ask your parents for it. You can complete this homework by collaborating with each other or independently."
After class, the whole classroom was in a noisy state, and Fleck immediately came to Bai Chen's side.
"Stone, do you have any plans?"
"Not yet, do you have any suggestions?"
"I'm considering whether to sell the toys my dad bought for me before for a low price. I think there will be many people in the school who are willing to buy them."
At this time, a girl walked up, dressed in exquisite clothes and neatly combed blonde hair.
"Hi, Stone, do you have any plans?"
Bai Chen remembers that the girl is called Isera. In Bai Chen's opinion, she looks very much like Isue, and she is the kind of beautiful girl from heaven who is used to being praised. Her sweet and lovely appearance also makes her very close to the opposite sex.
Several boys in the class looked at Isera differently. All the boys except Bai Chen and Fleck seemed to have confessed their love to Isera.
"I have a plan, but I need your cooperation."
“What plan?”
"I want you to play an Asian who is abused by a guardian. This way we can get a lot of help from kind people."
I have to admit that these American children have such great imagination that even Bai Chen can hardly get used to it.
"Actually, I think you should play a girl who is abused by your guardian, so that more kind-hearted people may lend a helping hand to you, and maybe you can still rely on this method to make a fortune."
"Stone, I'm not kidding you, I'm serious."
"I'm serious too. I have something to do, bye."
"Stone. You will regret it."
Bai Chen still waved his hand happily with Isera. When he walked past Caroline's office, Bai Chen saw that there seemed to be a black man arguing with Caroline in Caroline's office. However, when he saw Bai Chen walking by, the two immediately stopped quarreling and changed to a normal conversation.
Bai Chen only vaguely heard a few words, among which what made Bai Chen the most sensitive was ‘the plan changed’.
Not long after, the black man walked out of Caroline's office, looking a little angry when he looked at his expression.
Bai Chen also saw a gun holster in the corner of the black man's clothes.
Generally, the only one who uses gun holsters in the United States is the police, except for the police. Basically, no one is so bored that he can get a gun holster.
This black man should be Caroline's boss, which means Caroline is an undercover agent and pretends to be an elementary school teacher.
This also explains why Caroline has always had that attitude. She seems not enthusiastic about her education career at all.
But this has nothing to do with Bai Chen. At least it is certain that Caroline is not a bad person, that's enough.
"Hey... can the yellow monkey over there come here?"
Several senior boys sat on the stairs of the safety door aisle and watched Bai Chen walk over.
There were some cigarette butts on the ground, and it seemed that these children had done something that violated school rules before this.
"Are you calling me?" Bai Chen walked forward with a smile.
"Yes, you are calling you. You little yellow-skinned monkey."
When Bai Chen walked into the safety door, one of the boys immediately closed the safety door.
"Boy, how much money is in your pocket?"
A flat-headed child looked at Bai Chen with a little air flowing in his mouth, and Bai Chen touched his pocket.
“A lot of money.”
“How many are there?”
Bai Chen took out his wallet from his pocket, and the large green banknotes inside immediately made all the children's eyes straighten.
"Boy, where did you get so much money?"
"Oh, I stole the teacher's wallet."
The other boys showed a hint of shock, and a little fear.
After all, I am still a child, and when faced with so much money, I have lost my peace.
They usually do some extortion after being over, and a few dollars have already gained a lot for them.
Now facing these hundreds of dollars, they don’t dare to reach out even if they give them ten courage.
What's more, they heard that the boy in front of them stole the teacher's wallet, and this matter would definitely be a big deal.
They didn't want to be implicated by this kid, so the flat-headed boy who took the lead gave a look at the others.
"Let's go, don't get involved with this kid."
Bai Chen curled his lips and didn't even think of fighting against those little kids, so he was brave enough to learn from others to extort.
When Bai Chen turned around, he immediately saw Caroline standing inside the security door and looking at him.
"Stone, you really have the courage to steal the teacher's wallet." Caroline stared at Bai Chen.
"Teacher Caroline, are you planning to threaten blackmail now, or are you going to expose me?" Bai Chen asked with a smile.
"I just came to the town for more than a week and found several restaurants in the town that were not as good as I like. If you can treat me to a delicious meal, then I will think that I don't know anything."
"Teacher Caroline, I came only half a month earlier than you, and you seemed to have found the wrong person."
"Your guardian asked you to take so much cash to school. It seems that I need to go to your home for a home visit." (To be continued)
