章節 5: Self-entertainment
Finally, Elena and the senior on duty arrived at the hairdresser's place with the freshmen.
All the freshmen knew that they would probably not be able to escape the fate of getting a crew cut.
The group which was originally filled with curiosity, became lifeless at this moment.
Elena, on the other hand, hugged her shoulders and laughed softly.
She also thought about her male classmates from her batch. After they got their crew cut, they were all depressed for a long time.
She watched as the students one after another, under the hairdresser's hand, slowly got their hair shaved off.
The students who were initially depressed, when they realized that they now look the same as each other, they could not help but laugh out loud.
The depressed atmosphere was swept away.
Looking at each other's comical and uniform hairstyles, the big boys also joked with each other.
When the senior on duty saw this scene, he finally smiled and said, "After you get your haircut, you can go back to the dormitory and rest. Today is your first day of school. Enjoy it."
After he said these strange words, he left.
Elena obviously didn't plan to stay here to accompany them.
"Since you know where to find the dormitory, I won't stay here. You can go back to the dormitory on your own in a while."
Just as she said this, the freshmen answered like a wave, "Yes!"
Although what they had experienced today had overturned their understanding, it made them feel as if they had experienced another world.
Zhao Rui was no exception.
He gently stroked his newly shaved head.
The feeling was somewhat awkward.
However, it did not stop him and his classmates from touching each other's heads and making fun of each other.
Everyone could see that there were many rules here.
It was rare for them to be able to go back to their dormitory and do their own thing. Their excitement could no longer be restrained.
Especially when they were in a new environment and the people around them were all new students.
"Damn, what kind of food did we just eat? This is simply not to my liking."
One of the new students could not help but complain about the food in the cafeteria.
As soon as he said this, the people around him immediately agreed with him.
"That's right. There's even a rule about when to eat. I didn't even eat much just now."
The group chatted and laughed as they walked towards the dormitory.
Although Zhao Rui was full, he remembered that he had brought some food with him when he came.
Then, he smiled and said to the surrounding students, "I still have some specialty products from my hometown. Let's go back and share some with each other later."
This instantly aroused the interest of the others.
They talked about the things they brought from home all the way to the dormitory.
Including Zhao Rui, there were a total of four people in this dormitory.
This was the standard of Odin Academy.
Zhao Rui took out a ham in a sealed bag.
This was the air-dried ham that was available in his hometown.
It didn't need any other processing and could be directly cut and eaten.
He placed it on the table and said, "My name is Zhao Rui. This is the air-dried ham that is a local specialty of my hometown. Let me give you a taste of it."
The few of them were not familiar with each other yet.
Zhao Rui simply used this opportunity to get to know them.
On the other hand, a little fatty on Zhao Rui's upper bunk took out a few boxes of canned meat with a smile.
However, it was different from the ones sold outside.
Just like Zhao Rui, after placing the canned meat on the table, he said with a smile, "My name is Chi Heng. This is the canned chili beef that my family made."
Following this rule, the other two also brought out their hometown specialty.
One of their two roommates was called Bai Xiaofei, and the other was called Zhang Cheng.
However, one of their hometown specialties was dried fruits, and the other took out a bottle of white wine and placed it on the table.
Zhao Rui smiled slightly. "We now have meat and vegetables."
As he spoke, the few of them gathered together in high spirits.
Just as they were about to pour the wine to celebrate as new roommates, a voice was heard from outside the door.
"The food looks pretty good."
They were obviously seniors who had already barged in.
They looked at the things on the table and then looked around at Zhao Rui and the others.
The senior in the lead sounded sarcastic.
Bai Xiaofei was immediately unhappy.
This was his first meal with his roommates, and these seniors had come to spoil it.
Meanwhile, the little fatty Chi Heng was full of smiles.
"Seniors, why don't we feast together?" He seemed to be a kind person to everyone.
"There's no need for us to feast together. We're here to collect your personal belongings. We'll confiscate your cell phones and other electronic products."
"And of course, the local specialties of your hometown."
After finishing his sentence, the seniors started to pack up the things on the table.
Not only that, most of the personal belongings in their luggage were taken away.
Zhao Rui sighed.
He had never thought that Odin Academy would be so ruthless.
It was fine if they didn't give them a full meal, but they didn't even allow them to come back for extra meals.
The few of them looked dejected as they looked at the empty table.
"Our first meal was ruined by these people." Bai Xiaofei pursed his lips.
He collapsed onto the bed.
When they saw this scene, Zhao Rui and the others also became listless.
At the same time, waves of wails could be heard coming from the corridor.
It was obvious that the students from the other dormitories had also had their personal belongings confiscated.
At this moment, Chi Heng touched his luggage, and a look of joy suddenly appeared on his face.
"I still have a deck of poker cards here. They haven't been confiscated yet. Why don't we play a few rounds?"
As soon as he said this, Zhang Cheng and Bai Xiaofei sat up on the bed immediately.
"Really?"
Chi Heng had already started to shuffle the cards skillfully.
Zhao Rui also didn't expect that these seniors would leave them a deck of cards.
Immediately, the few of them began to discuss how to play cards in their hometowns.
After a round of small talk and discussion, the few of them finally began to play.
In this era, not having a cellphone was almost like having no entertainment. The traditional form of entertainment, poker, took up the role of driving away boredom.
Zhao Rui and the others went back and forth, and they were having a great time.
They didn't even notice that someone was standing behind them.
"It's not right to play this hand."
Suddenly, a deep voice was heard behind them, scaring them so much that they almost shivered.
When Zhao Rui turned around, he saw a tall man in military uniform standing behind them.
This man was tall and strong, with dark skin.
His face was expressionless as he stared at them.
