Daily life in Zongman

This is the most serious situation, and you must clean the mud and sand from your mouth and nose as soon as possible!

Fujiwara Haru cleaned up quickly, his hands trembling slightly, nervous but quick.

Then do chest compressions? No, do artificial respiration first. Wait, does artificial respiration mean blowing or breathing in?

It was by blowing air in, I remember now it was by blowing air in!

How many times should you press your chest after blowing?

Oops, I didn't remember! Fujiwara Haru didn't remember! Whatever! Blow first!

Fujiwara Haru tried to calm himself down, but still performed crude first aid for drowning victims with nervousness and panic.

During this time, they heard the cry for help and several peers came running over. Fujiwara Haru left one girl behind to help and asked the rest to quickly call an adult to call an emergency number.

Blow, press, blow, press, blow, press...

It was a simple repetitive action, but Fujiwara Haru was sweating profusely.

Thanks to the short drowning time and timely rescue, a few minutes later, some water flowed out from the corner of the girl's mouth, and then: "Puff, cough cough."

The girl spat out water under CPR, then coughed rapidly. Her uncomfortable physiological state made her subconsciously turn over and lie on the grass.

The girl who seemed to be her companion gently patted her back: "Meima! Meima!"

The drowning girl was breathing heavily, her consciousness still a little hazy.

Fujiwara Haru breathed a sigh of relief. The drowning first aid was successful!

Later, a passerby who heard the call for help ran over and called the emergency number. The ambulance arrived, and the passerby and Meijian’s friends got in the car together. The ambulance was full.

The passerby was in a hurry to get going, and Meijian's friends were even more anxious and at a loss. Fujiwara Haru held the swimming ring and watched the girl named Meijian get on the bus, then waved goodbye.

As it was getting late, he rubbed his stomach and felt hungry.

He was sticky, not sure if it was water or sweat, but he was in good spirits and in a good mood. Fujiwara Haru decided to spend some money on a nice bath at a bathhouse and then have a nice meal at a ramen restaurant.

Dinner ramen with an extra portion of meat!

Today's deposit - 1800 yen.

——End of Chapter————

Note ①-Meima, full name Meiko Honma: from "We Still Don't Know the Name of the Flower We Saw That Day", the heroine's nickname is pronounced "Menma", and the anime name is abbreviated as "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day".

A healing show, highly recommended.

I had a great time writing this chapter, and I love this dish of vinegar.

:)

13. A more dissatisfied class atmosphere

The half-open fence door of the unfinished building was closed by Fujiwara Haru from the outside. The rusty hinges made a creaking sound. Fujiwara Haru walked towards the school with his schoolbag on his back. Today was Monday, and he continued to go to school.

He twisted his neck slightly and felt a little sore, a stiff neck. Last night's attempt to use a swimming ring as a pillow was a complete failure. Not only did it keep rolling off, but it also felt a bit empty, not as good as a newspaper pillow.

After buying three big meat buns on the roadside, Fujiwara Haru walked towards school, eating the delicious meat buns and recalling the cartoon he watched last night.

The characters in cartoons have different hair colors, just like what he sees now, with people of all different hair colors on the streets, but the friends he meets at He Miao Orphanage all have black hair like him.

Why do people on the street have colorful hair?

Dyeing your hair? Fujiwara Haru was a little curious, but he didn't have any friends with colorful hair. To be more precise, he had no friends at all, so he didn't know who to ask.

I finished the last bun in a few bites, picked up a few leaves to wipe my fingers. The gloomy sky could not hide the joy of being full, and I started to study in class happily.

However, Fujiwara Haru was in a good mood, but squad leader Kawai was a little unhappy.

It is really troublesome to take care of Nishimiya Naoko in class. She often has to tell her where the lesson is, occasionally tutor her, and tell her what the question is when the teacher asks her.

Class monitor Kawai begins to feel annoyed with Nishimiya Shoko.

Mr. Takeuchi, the homeroom teacher, raised a question during class. Many people raised their hands, so he called on them: "Nishimiya, you answer it."

Nishimiya Glass still raised her hand. She didn't hear the teacher calling her. The class monitor Kawai patted her and said, "The teacher is calling you to answer the question."

Nishimiya Shoko belatedly put down her hand, opened the notebook and began to write the answers.

Whispers were heard in the class, and everyone took advantage of this time to do some small movements. By the time Nishimiya Glass raised the notebook to show the answer, some time had passed.

Mr. Takeuchi said expressionlessly: "Correct."

He looked at the class monitor Kawai and said, "Next time, let Nishimiya finish writing the answer before raising his hand to answer."

The class monitor Kawai nodded with a smile, but he felt even more annoyed in his heart. Why did she have to come? Why did she have to do these things? She was already tired from attending classes, and now she had to take care of someone.

The bell rang and the next class was Monday music class, which was also the last music class before the choir competition.

After everyone arrived at the music classroom, they lined up. Nishimiya Shoko and class monitor Kawai stood in the front row, while boys such as Fujiwara Haru and Ishida Shoya stood in the last two rows.

As the music started, class monitor Kawai opened her mouth, but she didn't make a sound.

After wearing a hearing aid, Nishimiya Glass can hear sounds, but all the sounds that enter her mind are somewhat distorted. Therefore, she relies more on seeing to grasp the timing of speaking.

See if the people around you have spoken, look at the gestures of the person in charge, and see everyone's reactions.

She saw her deskmate Kawai standing next to her speak, so she spoke too.

"Under the red sun, in the sinking desert~"

"There lives a big, leisurely monster~"

Everyone looked at her, and she sang nervously with her eyes closed. After she opened her mouth, her own voice echoed in her mind, making her completely unable to hear the sounds around her.

Class monitor Igawa patted her shoulder, and when she stopped, he smiled and said, "Nishimiya-san, you sang too early. Don't worry, I'll teach you."

------

At noon, Fujiwara Haru went to the cafeteria to eat. Ueno and others who brought lunch boxes from home gathered together and chatted while eating lunch.

"Ah, the choir competition is completely over."

"Why did you bring that weird thing to the competition?"

"Doesn't she have ears? Why isn't she cooperating at all?"

Ishida Shouya interrupted, "Because Nishimiya forgot to write the scriptures on his ears!"

"Pfft~"

Ishida turned his head to look at the podium where the voice came from and found that it was the homeroom teacher, Mr. Takeuchi, who had come back to get the lesson plan. It seemed that the suppressed laughter just now came from him.

The people surrounding Ishida Shoya finally realized the metaphor and laughed out loud: "Hahaha~"

Squad leader Igawa smiled widely: "Wu Er Fang Yi?"

"Yeah! That's hilarious!"

"Hahaha!"

Everyone was very satisfied with this sarcastic metaphor and laughed.

Ishida Shoya became even more proud. He thought he was a genius for being able to come up with such a funny metaphor.

------

The afternoon classes ended quickly, and when school was over, Nishimiya Shoko was stopped.

Several girls approached her and asked, "Nishimiya-san, can I ask you for a favor?"

Nishimiya Glass watched Fujiwara Haru disappear with a sigh. Today was another day without a conversation. She pulled herself together and, with a smile, showed the notebook to the girls gathered around her. "What can I do for you?"

Several girls smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. I have an appointment to go out and play today, but it's my turn on duty today. Could you please help me clean up, Nishimiya? Please, please!"

A few minutes later, Nishimiya Naoko looked at the girls leaving, walked to the corner of the classroom and picked up a broom.

------

Tuesday, sunny to cloudy.

Fujiwara Haru felt a little cold when she got up in the morning. As expected, the weather in April is changeable, and the thin blanket is not enough.

He decided to pick up more cardboard boxes and newspapers after school so that he could try to make a paper quilt. Covering it with the paper quilt on the outside and a blanket on the inside should make it much warmer when sleeping.

During the morning meeting, Teacher Kita came to the classroom and made a proposal: "It is really troublesome for Nishimiya-san to be deaf and unable to communicate, so I have a suggestion!"

Teacher Kita is enthusiastic: "Let's all use the after-school assembly time to learn sign language together, just three minutes a day!~"

In order to prevent stampedes, Shuimen Primary School has a school assembly time after school so that students can go downstairs at different times. The school assembly for Class 6-2 is ten minutes.

When the class heard Teacher Kita's suggestion, they fell silent.

"Oh, right. Sign language is talking with your hands. Different gestures express different meanings."

Class monitor Jingchuan smiled, but she felt even more annoyed. Why? Why did she have to learn sign language? She was already struggling to keep up with the class schedule, and learning something new would only make it more difficult, she thought.

But she did not object. Kita-sensei's suggestion was to take care of Nishimiya-san, and she could not object.

If she were as straightforward as Ueno Naoka, she would have stood up and objected.

But she didn't. She felt that she was the best kid in the class and should help others, but now she was clearly fed up with it. Class monitor Igawa felt like her body was breaking.

The class was silent.

Teacher Kita clasped his hands together and said, "Then if there are no other questions, those who agree with this proposal can clap together! Let's help Nishimiya-san together!"

A classmate named Sawara Miyoko, who was sitting in the corner of the classroom and had no sense of existence, clapped her hands together with Fujiwara Haru, and then the whole class burst into applause.

The class was short, and after school the whole class stayed back to learn sign language together for three minutes.

Teacher Kita taught the most basic sign language: put your hands together, palms facing each other, cross them in a cross shape, and then hold them together.

Sign language: Be friends.

"Everyone! ~ This sign language means making friends. If you want to make friends with someone, you can use this sign language!"

Teacher Kita was very happy. She patiently taught the child twice and then announced the end of school.

However, the cheerful Kita teacher was unaware of the discontent that permeated the class. Everyone was fed up with Nishimiya Shoko, fed up with her inability to fit in, fed up with her constant interruptions with her notebook, fed up with the fact that she needed special attention.

Everyone knew that even if Nishimiya Shoko was not at the after-school assembly, they would have to stay for ten minutes, but everyone was already dissatisfied with the ten-minute delay in school dismissal, and now, there was a more specific reason for the ten-minute assembly - Nishimiya Shoko.

Most people in the class are becoming increasingly dissatisfied with Nishimiya Shoko.

Teacher Kita left the classroom and asked Teacher Takeuchi, "Where's Fujiwara? I didn't see him when we were learning sign language just now."

Teacher Takeuchi said indifferently, "I skipped class this afternoon."

——End of Chapter————

Note 1 - Earless Yoshiichi: A Japanese folktale from the book "Kwaidan Hyakumonogatari." To escape the pursuit of vengeful spirits, Earless Yoshiichi wrote scriptures on his body, rendering them invisible. However, unable to endure the curses of the spirits, Yoshiichi covered his ears. Sweat rubbed off the scriptures, revealing his ears, which the spirits then cut off. Here, Ishida Shōya compares Earless Yoshiichi to Nishimiya Shoko, mocking her lack of ears. (Takeuchi's teacher instantly laughed at the joke, agreeing that it was a very "appropriate" comparison.)

Note ②-Miyoko Sahara: From "The Shape of Sound", she has a kind personality.

Note ③-Sign language: There are various "dialect" versions of sign language. The sign language gestures shown in the movie are used here.

Note ④-Poisonous point: The golden finger will be exposed. This will not happen. Some hidden dangers in behavior will be eliminated within ten chapters.

14. My first encounter with Katsura Kotonoha

Fujiwara Haru skipped class. At noon, while eating lunch in the school cafeteria, he checked the map and found a new red exclamation mark.

Event: Bullying.

A time countdown may occur

02:13

It took two hours and the distance was not close, so Fujiwara Haru ran out of the school after lunch.

The Rainbow Cat Hero wouldn't just stand by and watch someone die! Even if he doesn't have the Rainbow Sword, he still has the Badge of Courage!

Whether it was the director's teachings to help each other or the various brave and chivalrous stories in the cartoons he watched, they were all guiding Fujiwara Haru to set off quickly.

Maybe office workers have to weigh the pros and cons of helping others, and when facing the end of the world, they will say: Hurry up.

But the energetic boy believes that the world is a beautiful place. He will do his best to help others. If the world is in danger, he will definitely choose to save the world.
