-Togawa High-
As soon as Laurie entered the school gate, she turned left and passed the inspection of the student council.
She wore the school uniform for the first time. Perhaps that explains why Rina Yamaguchi's minions have not noticed her, yet.
The students rushed through the front door to the geta bako to exchange their outdoor shoes for indoor shoes called uwagutsu.
She should have done the same, but she was trying to avoid those girls who wouldn't stop talking trash in front of her, as though she couldn't understand them when they perfectly knew she could!
Since she studied Japanese for more than two years and passed the highest level of the Japanese proficiency test, she was accepted to attend Togawa High - one of the few international schools in Tokyo - for her school requirements to have immersion in other cultures.
