Chapter 5: An Unbelievable Moment Of A Crawling Girl

Before I started attending high school, teachers would always check the students’ bicycle at the start of every Semester. They checked for things like whether the bicycle light still works per normal, whether the bicycles had the special sticker given to the students from the school, or even whether the brakes were lose……Teachers were told by the school to stay back after school and check the bikes; it was rather ‘extra’. And furthermore, everyone was forced to do it.

From the perspective of those who did not take part in any clubs or societies, right after school, just when they wanted to go shopping or just lurking around, they had no choice but to stay back, and wait for the teachers to inspect the bikes, slowly and carefully, one-by-one. It was by no doubt excruciating. And it was Out-door.

The falling petals of the Sakura tree during April; being “fried” by the sun during September; teeth chattering of coldness during January.

Athletic clubs also complain often due to fair maidens conquering them. In the pasts, the softball club still had to have free bat training, obviously targeting the pile of softballs that the teachers hit. And they needed to hit the target within two shots. After that guy gets promoted into a second-year senior, he would become an official player for the school-team, right? But the only thing that makes people rethink is that, the person that he hit was the adviser of the softball team.

If anything, like having the bell of the bike malfunctioning, or having rockets on the bikes, were to be found during the checks, the students would have to go through a “Second Check”. Therefore, most students would never forget to check their bicycles beforehand. To make things simpler, this is equivalent to helping the teachers complete their work – since they finished their job already. This is somewhat like the feeling of a sheepdog chasing the sheeps – I dislike that type of attitude, the type where a commanding position looks down on its subordinates.
