“Let’s go to Nariko’s old school. That’s where the trail starts.” You have been dying to pay that place a visit. Supposedly, a teacher was supposed to call you about Nariko’s safety, but he never did – that still irks you to this day.
“That virulent place...” Nariko expresses contempt for the academy.
“It won’t be that fun with the place closed, but whatever. Still curious about what kind of dump that is.” Yu Yan doesn’t have high hopes.
“Oh, Yu Yan, you have no idea! It’s much worse! The academy is always opened for the student body, they have to for all the dorm residents.” Nariko finds this all repulsive. “They won’t be prowling around in those hideous uniforms of theirs, but it’ll be an interactive visit to a most repulsive point.”
“This’ll be so much fun! We’ll bully these snobby punks!” Yu Yan is so ready now.
“Uhm… We’re looking for the keyboard, girls.” Oh god, you don’t want to be the adult here! You want to be the psycho with bad ideas.
“Yes, to find one of my treasures.” Nariko isn’t as reluctant as one would expect from a person who hates the place she’s going.
“We’re going to pay a visit to a dump after all!” Yu Yan leads the way. “Come this way so you can tell me where to go!” She has no idea where this academy is.
“One moment! I must gear up first!” Nariko’s comfy clothes are going away before you go…
Eventually, you all leave the apartment to take the subway train to the Northern District! Can you believe there’s a station for this school in specific? You don’t know if this denotes more the excessive influence the parents of these rich boys have, or their stupidity because you can’t imagine any of them taking the train. Yu Yan pointed out it’s probably for the staff, and it reminded you that sometimes you forget to see the whole picture.
You’ve arrived at the farthest north of Pokyo Lokyo! It’s all eerily spotless, like every building is brand new, clean in a way you’ve never seen a city be like, full of green or white! It’s vegetation or clean! There are basically no colors aside from those two, and if there are, it’s all because of the advertisements, and those are all geared to another class of people. Not you. As an example, your father always drank the expensive beer label ‘Magnum Melborne’, and you swear you’ve never seen a billboard promoting it, but here? There are dozens of signs! There are brands you’ve never heard of before from other products that you’re not sure what they are. You thought the entire point of marketing was about telling you about a product, but guess you’re just a naïve guy. These don’t look fancy, but they sell themselves as fancy, and fancy is all they sell. This whole experience is making you feel vain, and you’re not going to buy shit! Imagine living here!
