441 Search him yourself

The two–hour nap time was over and the class teacher returned from the meeting she had attended with the other staff. There was no need for her to wake the kids because the school alarm already did. 1

She waited for about thirty minutes for them to get a hold of themselves before she started calling the monthly register.

The school, although documents everything on the system, is still adept at using traditional registers monthly to track the number of times their students appeared in class in a month.

Their reason for doing so was that, a few years back, a student was caught hacking his class‘ system and making sure he always marked himself present, whereas he skips school almost every day. The reason that the junior high schooler wasted so much money to get a hacker was because his grandfather promised to pass on his company to the boy’s younger brother if he skips–class again.

The issue caused a lot of trouble for the school, so because of that, they settled for book registers.

Presently, Valen’s class teacher was calling registers and nothing seemed to be wrong until he got to Valen’s name.

She looked up from the Register to see Valen reading a book.

“Valen Lu!”

The young child raised his gaze and looked at her.

“Come out here,” she instructed, pointing to the space in front of her.
